Brawler

Being a lot more muscular than your average shambler, the Brawler is rumored to have evolved from infected bodybuilders and generally muscular individuals. Sporting a growth of hair all over its body likely originating from a high amount of testosterone, the torso and lower arms of a Brawler offer a surprising amount of protection coming from the thickly woven hair - a Brawler’s fur can catch quite a few bullets. The aforementioned muscles have strengthened further, making the Brawler a terrifying foe to face. Known to jump around and climb various surfaces and obstacles, the Brawler attacks in an ape-ish way, utilizing brute force to break bones rather than causing wounds with the claws and teeth wielded by most shamblers.
