For Abel Township's previous Runner 6, see Maggie Doane.

Owen Landis is the second Runner 6 for Abel since Runner Five arrived. He was raised by a single mother in Australia. His mother worked hard when Owen was a boy, and she eventually saved up enough money to buy her own sheep farm. Owen believes his mother is safe on the farm, due to the isolated area and electric fences.

Owen is an optimistic, even stopping to appreciate the scenery when running from zombies in Zombies, Climb!. He bickers constantly with Runner 4, leading Maxine to believe they might fall in love given enough time and push.

History[]

Pre-apocalypse[]

Owen worked in a bar with Adam.[1]

Season Two[]

Owen participates in the memorial service for Runners Five, Six, Ten, and Seventeen in the Forest of Fallen Runners. Owen is also officially designated as the new Runner Six at this time. The ceremony is interrupted by the early arrival of a ship carrying essential fuel, so Owen and the other runners head off to help unload it.[1]

The fuel is loaded onto a train headed for Bert Airfield. Owen is supposed to go to the airfield to be ready to unload it, but he gets kidnapped by bandits and tied to the train tracks. Sara plans to leave him there, insisting that the fuel is more important than his life, but Runner Five manages to rescue him in time.[2]

Owen is out testing Maxine's anti-zombie spray when bandits invade Abel.[3]

Maxine sends Owen and Jody out on a mission together. Unbeknowst to them, this is Maxine's attempt to act as a matchmaker for them, as she's convinced their constant arguing means that they are secretly in love. She's wrong. They end the mission arguing just as much as when they started, if not more.[4]

Owen joins Jody, Five, and Simon on a mission to pick up supplies from a shopping centre...while riding bicycles. Owen is upset that his bike isn't nearly as good as Simon's or Five's, but Jody points out that at least his bike has gears - hers doesn't. Five and Simon have to protect Owen and Jody from zombies as they climb a hill with their subpar bikes, but Owen and Jody return the favor after Simon's tire blows out and he has to hitch a ride with Five.[5]

Season Three[]

Owen pursues Jody to the point of making her uncomfortable. When her mob connections are revealed, he acts betrayed, causing her to yell at him for falling in love with an idealized version of her rather than her real self.

Amelia sets Owen on fire as a distraction while attempting to get away.

Season Four[]

Owen set some papers on fire and found some different papers a different time.

Season Five[]

Owen has been helping Nadia and Veronica in the lab. When the others escape, he stays behind to help Nadia and Veronica. It's later revealed that he and Nadia are dating. Owen frequently pushes her in her wheelchair so she can go on walks like she used to, something Veronica mentions Nadia loves. Owen also helps produce a heartier strain of barley.

Owen joins in on the plan to get Janine's keycard to Five. Tom shoots Owen in the leg as part of the plan, and Sigrid has Owen taken back to Abel. She threatens to have Nadia shot if Owen tries anything in the future.

When Sigrid leaves for London, Owen tries to reason with an incredibly paranoid Ian. Ian shoots Owen repeatedly while a horrified Nadia looks on, until Steve announces that Owen is dead.
