Chris Maddox

Chris Maddox is one of the main protagonists throughout the first and second season. He is an admin intern in season 1 and the winner of the games in season two.

Internship
Chris has always been best friends with Ava Harrison and Joana Clarkeson, and had always been planning on joining the student council. He finally applied for the intern program and was accepted. Chris was then training to become an administrator

The games
Through the council, he met Nicole Hoover, Keely Stark and Kirsten Forest. He became good friends with them, and found out that they were all in the same game pool. They played games together, but slowly realized that they were dangerous and potentially deadly. Chris started to hang out with them more and less with his old friends. Chris was the first person to reach the 50 point mark.

Nicole's death
He and Joana were the only witnesses to Nicole's shooting. After Andrew fled the scene, the duo was left with her dying body. Although they wanted to call the police, neither of them did so, and they sat around as Nicole was begging them to call an ambulance. She eventually passed away, and the two were left traumatized. After she died, the duo did call the police, and made up the lie that they were trying to save her, but realized that medical help was way more important and better, and that in the time they were trying to get to the school, Nicole passed away.

Kicked from the program
Because Joana was traumatized, and because Chris was one of her triggers, she threw him out of the intern program, stating that he did not impress her. Their friendship got worse over time until they couldn't stand each other anymore.

Winning the games
After Joana died, Chris and Alex were the last two players standing. The only way for Alex to win, was for Chris to die. Time ran out, and thus Alex had lost. Chloë gave Alex one last meal, before beating him to death. Chris was forced to watch Alex's beating and watched the life leave his body. Chris gave up all hope and made his way to the train tracks. He stood before the open tracks, before they closed. Police cars approached him. For a while, it was unsure whether he had been arrested or committed suicide to most people. In the end, Chris did jump in front of the incoming train (All My Friends Aren't Here).
