iZombie Season One

    Rose McIver as Olivia “Liv” Moore:

A former medical resident who became a zombie when she attended a boat party that was attacked by people who had just taken a new designer drug called “Utopium”. She now works as a coroner’s assistant for the King County Medical Examiner’s Office to have access to the human brains she must frequently consume to maintain her humanity and suppress her hunger. Without feeding, she becomes increasingly less intelligent. She experiences flashes of memories from the brains she eats, and temporarily takes on random quirks from her subjects—ranging from a fear of pigeons to a sudden appreciation for art to martial arts skills—and has demonstrated the ability to take a bullet to the chest with little damage. She graduated from the University of Washington. When Liv enters so-called “Full-on Zombie Mode” her eyes turn red and her strength is vastly increased. The change is triggered by intense stress (or hunger), and the zombie has very little control over the trigger.
