Philip Blake (Overwrite)

"Go through the fences in your cars, get your guns. We go in, kill them all!"

- The Governor's final commands.

Philip Blake, also known by his nickname "The Governor", is a main character and an antagonist as well as a survivor of the outbreak in Polimis's Overwrite. He is the leader of the fortified town of Woodbury. He serves as the primary antagonist of the whole of Season 3 and the first half of Season 4.

Meriwether County, Georgia.
Philip was born in the mid 1960’s and grew up in Meriwether County alongside his brother, the pair experienced a rough childhood and thus held a negative relationship with their father whom was physically abusive towards them both. As a child, Philip often played chess with his father which he frequently lost to, as he often pressured Philip into making quick decisions and thus never showed mercy, which caused Philip to lose confidence in himself.

At a young age, the brothers were caught smoking a pack of cigarettes belonging to their father in a garage, his brother intervened, taking the blame for their actions (when in actuality it was Philip who was responsible), regardless the siblings were beaten up by their father. The futility of his brother’s attempts to stand up against their father had a strong impact on Philip’s development and led him to believe of heroes as fools who only bring harm upon themselves and others.

In spite of his brutal upbringing, Philip grew to become a family man where he had a beloved wife and a daughter named Penny where the three lived together as a typical family. Over time however, Philip gradually grew to become dissatisfied with his plain, mediocre life where he worked as an office drone under a younger and unintelligent boss who hounded him for several years.

(Eighteen months prior to the outbreak), one day at work, Philip received a call from the hospital informing him that his wife had tragically died in a car crash, this event left Philip emotionally devastated, especially after she had previously left a message for him to call her back, which he never did, (an action for which he deeply regrets). After her death, Philip and Penny began to rely upon each other.
