  • Lionel Washington- Age at time of the rapture: 13 First Appearance: Book #1

His whole family, even to the largest extent, were the most devout Christians he knew, and he pretended to go along with them. The only one he could connect with was his Uncle André, who would turn into a drunk and a gambler one week and a "devout Christian" the next. All of his family (including his mother, Lucinda, who also worked as a coworker of Cameron "Buck" Williams at Global Weekly) disappeared in the Rapture except André, who died after being shot by LeRoy Banks and being caught up in a fire in his apartment complex (at the end of the series Lionel discovers that Uncle André became a believer). Lionel became a believer in Christ—he, like Judd and Vicki, knew that Jesus had raptured His church. He spent the next seven years spreading the message, spending most of his time with Judd and, until his death in World War III, Bruce Barnes. He had to amputate his left arm after it was crushed in a rock slide while he and Judd were traveling back to the rest of the Young Tribulation Force from their adventures in the Middle East, but gained it back when Jesus's very presence healed it as it did all wounds.
