Adam (Eden Rising)

Adam is a newborn baby, introduced in the second season of Eden Rising. Adam is the biological son of the Last Chance Society's leader John Smith and the society's nurse and "poster girl" Libby. He is a newborn whose birth was covered up to avoid controversy, as the strict rules Smith put up for the society blatantly restrict out-of-wedlock sex.

Pre-series
Sometimes before the series starts, Libby is impregnated with Adam by John Smith.

Season 1
John Smith and Libby developed a scheme where Libby's pregnancy was hidden in order to avoid concentration. After the child's birth, he was hidden in the forest where, on an impromptu hunt, John Smith "discovered" the child and took him in.

It is shown that Adam is the eye of John Smith's eye, and he is deeply in love with the child. It is revealed that Smith intended to replace the family he lost shortly after the apocalypse, and named Adam after the child he had with his wife. The first Adam and his wife Annie are kept, reanimated, in the basement of the monastery where he feeds them human flesh to keep them around. He hopes having Adam and Libby around will help him finally let go of his former family, though he can't bring himself to do it.
