- The Original Zombie (OZ): The first one to succumb to the virus goes unknown for the first 24 hours and may run at the start of hunting hours, so watch your back… This role can be held by any member but not two semesters in a row.
- Humans: People trying to survive the apocalypse and complete the missions they are given throughout the week. All members start with this role except for the OZ
- Zombies: The undead trying to kill as many humans as possible throughout the week while trying to complete their own objectives. This role may only walk. Once tagged by a zombie or a bonie, a human will take in this role.
- Bonies: A zombie that can run. This change happens after a zombie tags someone or a zombie takes part in TWO CONSECUTIVE missions. A person may lose Bonie status if they do not tag a person within 24 hours. By mission Thursday night, bonies will NOT lose their bonie status. During the last mission on Sunday, all zombies are bonies.
- Spitter: A zombie that can be chosen in place of a Bonie after having tagged a human, or being a walker for 2 consecutive missions. The spitter despite not being able to run can throw their brain at a human to stun them for 10 seconds both in and out of mission. A person may lose their Spitter status if they do not tag a second person within 24 hours. By mission Thursday night, spitters will NOT lose their status. During the last mission on Sunday, all zombies are either Bonies or Spitters.
