-'''Alden''' is a [[character (arts)|fictional character]] from [[AMC (TV channel)|AMC]]'s [[Horror fiction|horror]] [[drama]] series ''[[The Walking Dead (TV series)|The Walking Dead]]'', who first appeared in the [[The Walking Dead (season 8)|eighth season]] as a recurring character. He is described as a sexy, blue-collar twentysomething whose survival skills include sarcasm.<ref name="Comic Book">{{cite web |url=http://comicbook.com/thewalkingdead/2017/04/26/the-walking-dead-new-characters-season-8-/ |title=The Walking Dead Casting Two New Characters For Season 8 |last=Davis |first=Brandon |date=April 26, 2017 |publisher=Comic Book |accessdate=December 11, 2017}}</ref>
-==Appearances==
-===Season 8===
-In "[[The Damned (The Walking Dead)|The Damned]]", while in a battle, Alden is attempting to flee the Satellite Outpost with other Saviors, but is forced to surrender to The Militia remarking that "living sounds good" after being surrounded. He encourages his fellow Saviors to surrender as well. He is chained with several other Saviors in "[[Monsters (The Walking Dead)|Monsters]]" and being transported to the Hilltop Colony. On their way a walker attack occurred. His fellow Savoirs who are chained together with him attend to flee in the panic, but he refuses and reminds them that The Militia has guns handy they don't. After successfully being brought to the Hilltop in "[[The King, the Widow, and Rick]]", he asks [[Paul "Jesus" Monroe|Jesus]] what the colonists of the Hilltop are building inside. He is then imprisoned with the other Saviors and [[Gregory (The Walking Dead)|Gregory]]. He then stops Jared, a Savior who has tried to flee several times before, from escaping because he doesn't want any trouble. In "[[How It's Gotta Be]]", he begs to [[Maggie Greene|Maggie]] that she would spare Dean, a fellow inmate. Shortly after, Maggie executes Dean and Alden watches in horror.
-==Development and reception==
-The casting name for this character was Dillon. Before his first appearance, he was compared to other characters from the show like Spencer Monroe and Nicholas.<ref name="Comic Book"/> Alden's actual name wasn't revealed until "[[How It's Gotta Be]]" when fellow Savior Dean calls him Alden instead of Dillon. Oddly enough, his actor [[Callan McAuliffe]] has been credited as Dillon in all of his on-screen appearances thus far. It is likely that Alden is the television counterpart of Dante, who is instead a member of the Hilltop.
