Anthony Dematteo

Anthony, also known as Anthony Stark and later The Regulator, was a camper at Camp Fireside and was in Andrew Stark's group. Anthony was notably strong willed and tempered, but fiercely loyal and dedicated. He was eventually killed just before the Civil War of Camp Fireside by Nick Walker as a demonstration to other survivors at the camp.

Events of The Regulator
Anthony was a camper in Andrew's group and thus under his protection. Anthony acted as a member of Andrew's group for a long period of time, but was separated from Andrew, Jaxon, James, Ivan, and Gabi during the infestation of Spectacle Island. He was left in the care, and at the mercy of, Nick Walker at Camp Fireside along with his fellow campers Niko and Danny.

While Nick's dictator-like rule was reason enough for Anthony to angrily see him as an enemy, Nick's treatment of him and his "brothers" was even more reason. Nick commonly starved the three boys, and locked them up in a cold, furniture less room under the barn to keep them out of sight. Anthony deduced that it was because Nick feared any memory of Andrew, his former rival for power, and began operating against Nick's leadership, secretly assisted by Monica and Brandon.

Anthony, with Monica and Brandon's help, would constantly sneak out of Camp Fireside to assist other survivors in the surrounding area, using the title of "The Regulator" to spread the legend that Andrew was still alive and to scare Nick into believing his rival was returning. Anthony eventually began doing jobs within the camp itself to sabotage various plans of Nick's.

During one such job, Anthony was caught by men loyal to Nick and brought before him. Nick decided to execute him in front of the entire Camp, as an example to any further "rebels". During the public execution, Nick senselessly beat Anthony when the boy refused to call himself anything but "The Regulator". Nick asked him for any last words before executing him, Anthony's simply being "The Regulator Lives". He was then shot in the head, for the whole camp, including Brandon, Monica, Niko, and Danny to see.

Anthony's death was a primary motivation for Andrew to attack and take back Camp Fireside from Nick, and his actions helped spread the legend of The Regulator through the undead wasteland.
