Line 9:
The protagonist of the entire series, and the player-controlled character of the second and fourth seasons. An eight-year-old girl in the first season, and the first survivor that Lee comes upon. The two of them tag along throughout the game until Lee succumbs to a walker bite. In the following years, she looks out mainly for herself, as well as meeting many different people along the way.
 
*[[The Ace]]: The zombie apocalypse and its hardships have turned Clem into an extremely proficient survivor. She has added many skills to her repertoire, including marksmanship, hunting and the ability to read people well.
* [[Action Girl]]: Necessitated by the apocalypse and with the help of adults such as Lee and Jane, she has become a proficient fighter and (when necessary) killer.
*[[Action Girlfriend]]: For Louis or Violet, if she chooses to enter into a relationship with one of them.
*[[Action Survivor]]: Manages to escape her infected babysitter and survive for at least a couple days by herself, and she is only eight-years-old.
*[[Affectionate Nickname]]: 'Clem' by everyone, 'sweet pea' by Lee and 'darlin' by Kenny.
*[[The Aloner]]: Between seasons 2 and 3, after she is separated from Kenny/Jane/Edith and is left with AJ. When AJ is taken by the New Frontier, she is truly alone, and ends up preferring it, having lost trust in groups.
*[[Ambiguously Brown]]
*[[An Arm and a Leg]]: In season 4episode 4, Clem is bitten on the lower left leg. Later, in the barn, she tells AJ to either kill her or leave her to turn. Instead, AJ chops off her lower leg with an axe, which ultimately proves to save her life, though she has to use crutches from then on.
*[[Anguished Declaration of Love]]: If Clem goes with Jane at the end of Season 2 ''and'' Gabe dies at the end of season 3, Clem admit her feelings for him by kissing him on the lips.
*[[Badass Adorable]]: From late in Season 1 onwards, when she starts helping in combat. The adorable may subside, but it persists to some extent.
*[[Badass and Child Duo]]: With Lee.
* [[Badass Boast]]: Tends to give these when someone threatens her, such as her 'still not bitten' line while in the shed in Season 2 episode 1, or optionally telling Mitch to 'back the fuck off' after he threatened her and AJ for Marlon's death.
* [[Bad Liar]]: Responds with a nervous 'I don't know' when asked by Lee (in season 1) and AJ (in season 4) if she licked a salt lick in the St. John barn.
* [[Battle Couple]]: If she enters into a relationship with Louis or Violet near the end of Season 4, episode 2.
* [[Berserk Button]]: Making fun of her cap.
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: If attacked (e.g., by Winston in Season 2 episode 1), threatened (e.g. by the Delta) or not treated with any respect (e.g. Carver). She can definitely hurt those that cross her.
* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: Played straight with AJ, inverted with Sarah (she is about 5 years older than Clem in Season 2).
* [[Big Brother Worship]]: She isn't related by blood to Luke, but their relationship can be interpreted as this.
* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: If her friends are endangered, she will not hesitate to help out in a big way, such as shooting the Stranger, stopping Carver or helping Javi and his group when surrounded by walkers.
* [[Blackmail]]: Optionally done to Sarah and/or Alvin so that she can sneak around the cabin to get supplies for her dog bite, and possibly to Rebecca when she is being mean to Clem, so that Clem doesn't reveal Rebecca's baby may not be Alvin's.
* [[Blood Knight]]: Can show shades of this in Season 2 depending on player choices, and becomes one outright the following season, frequently preferring violence as a solution to situations. She can still be one in ''The Final Season'', but is never stated in the entire series to enjoy killing.
* [[Boyish Short Hair]]: She gets it cut by Lee in episode 3 to prevent it from being grabbed by anyone, alive or undead. It gets cut again by Javi at the end of season 3 so she can have it short again.
* [[Break the Cutie]]: Frequently, particularly when someone in her group dies, such as Larry, Lee and Omid. Also when she sees her undead parents.
* [[Broken Pedestal]]: If Lee does things Clem doesn't agree with, she will view him more negatively. Regardless, she becomes disillusioned with Lee in episode 4 and decides to run off with the Stranger. This indirectly causes Lee's death, something Clem greatly regrets in future seasons. The pedestal gets put back together when Lee rescues her.
* [[Burn, Baby, Burn]]: In season 2 episode 1, she can choose to have a picture of Lee or of Kenny's family burned to keep the campfire lit, as opposed to a log.
*[[Morality Pet]]: Seems to be this for Lee.
* [[Nice Hat]]: Her baseball cap, a gift from her dad.
