Rochelle

"My name's Rochelle. I produce a news show."

- Rochelle "Thanks to you guys, I am the baddest woman alive!"

- Rochelle

Rochelle (also known as Ro) is one of the Survivors in Left 4 Dead 2. She likes to communicate with the world and therefore became an associate producer in journalism. Her news station recently promoted her and sent her to Savannah, the location of the first campaign, to produce a story on the odd occurrences that were happening. Her t-shirt features an image of the British electronic band Depeche Mode.

Relationships with other Survivors
Rochelle is the sensible "big sister" of the group, and almost everyone treats her well. She's also the one who gets the most congenial response from outsiders, like Francis and the gun store owner. She is generally sensible, level-headed, and kind to everybody; however, she has a dry sense of humor that comes out sometimes. She'll say "Jimmy Gibbs Jr...yay," sarcastically and call the Midnight Riders a "crappy band", but Coach and Ellis don't seem to hold it against her.


 * Coach: Rochelle and Coach have a warm, friendly relationship. She'll encourage him when he says he is hurt. He calls her "girl" and "little sister". Though when Coach dies, she seems to have certain disrespect for him, asking if Coach was his first or last name, though this may be an attempt to lighten up the situation as a method of coping.
 * Ellis: Rochelle treats Ellis somewhat like a little brother, just as Ellis treats Rochelle as if she were his big sister. They joke around during the campaigns and each is sad when the other dies. She stands up for Ellis in The Passing, telling Nick to leave Ellis alone when he makes fun of Ellis for liking Zoey. She also offers Ellis some female advice about his crush on Zoey, telling him "You just need to be your sweet self, Ellis," when he wonders how to approach her.
 * Nick: Rochelle is the only member of the group who doesn't seem to bother, or be bothered, by Nick. She'll yell at him less during friendly fire incidents and mourn the most when he dies, saying such things as "I'll miss you Nick. You were good to me." Rochelle will ask Nick about their odds of survival, and say the long odds "sound about right." Rochelle is quick to side with Nick when Ellis yells at him for killing the pilot of the rescue helicopter. However, in The Passing when Nick makes comments about Ellis missing his chance with Zoey, Rochelle states that out of the two women still alive, at least one hates him, which might mean there are limits to her patience. During a discussion about getting another car, Ellis defends it, saying that while he thinks Francis is cool, he's not about to trade him for Nick. Rochelle then asks the others if they would like to put that to a vote, showing her dislike at the moment for Nick. Still, they seem to have more in common with each other then with the other two, and tend to stick together. His sour personality and rough-cut instincts more than likely keep her at bay.
 * Francis: Rochelle seems to like Francis a lot more than her fellow Survivors. In the promo, they get along fine, as they both apparently hate stuff. Based on the comments of the other Survivors and Francis' enthusiasm to be kissed by her, it is likely that Francis has a crush on her. Rochelle herself may have developed feelings for Francis, as the men in her group will tease her about him.
 * Zoey: Zoey and Rochelle will often exclaim to each other how they are relieved to find another woman still alive. They will comment on one another's Special Infected kills in the finale. Zoey also seems happy to throw her items during the finale.
 * Louis: Louis and Rochelle have a warm impression of each other almost instantly. Upon seeing him wounded, she immediately takes his health into consideration. She invites the trio to join them on their trip to New Orleans, which Louis kindly rejects, stating that although she seems really nice, they'll be fine on their own.

She also is the most understanding of the Survivors' situation with Bill's recent death and gives them the option of not lowering the bridge at all.
