Number 1-The Average Joe
This is your average player in DayZ he really aint out to do anything but survive and have a jolly good time but he can also be a problem at some times to you and other DayZ players but most of the time he just simply wants to pass by the area. This is what one of these joes might look like.
Number 2-The Bandit
Ah yes the bandit is a player that does not really have any other objective but to ruin your time while traveling around DayZ, most of the time these players will shoot you and take your possessions or rob you and leave you nothing and to add more salt to this wound is that most bandits will have friends to aid them to ruin your day and anyone else they cross paths with. It is advised to keep away from these folk as they might prove a major problem to your overall health as a player. Below is a possible image of a bandit.
Number 3-The Hero
Ah now here is a rare chap to meet as he is not as common as the common joe or bandit as he tries to help out other players and do everything to help you on your travels in DayZ. They do not support bandits and sometimes form groups to hunt down groups of bandits, help new spawns and players in general these players are the best of the bunch. Here is a image of what a hero might look like
Number 4-Crazy People
This is where your travels get interesting, I bet you have seen them or even met a few of these players who seem to be off there rocker or lost a gear in the machine or in some terms crazy people.
These are players who might act as normal joes at one moment and then just start acting weird like humming, doing strange activity's or just being plain old creepy like following you for no reason most people avoid these chaps as they can sometimes cause a great threat to you in more ways then one so its in best interest to stay away from them.
Number 5 The Bambi
A Bambi as they are called are players who have just spawned into DayZ and sometimes have nothing but sub par gear on them. Most people try to let them get on with there life and let them pass without thinking they are a threat but really a Bambi can be a very crafty foe as they have nothing to lose and everything to gain, so watch out for some Bambi's as some might be nice and others might make you there next supply drop.
Number 6-The Troll
Ah yes the troll of DayZ a person of pure mischief and comedy in your travels the average troll will sometimes trick new spawns into deathtraps or something else that will make you get hurt in some way and then you have the unusual troll who will have a good laugh with you who reward you for playing along with them they are not as common but its a nice treat in the land of DayZ.


Number 7-The Hunter
The hunter is a man of love for nature and living off the land this chap will hunt the wildlife of DayZ and other things found in the wild. You could say he is just a more eco friendly chap that you will find along you way in DayZ, just trying to make it like the average joe would.
Number 8-Preachers
Oh boy now the fun will begin with the preacher. More or less a sub section of crazy people preachers will preach and pray for certain things or objects. On my fair travels in DayZ I met two new and large Preachers, one wanted all beans to be sacrificed to the bean gods and another wanted all pants to be destroyed on site i was able to stay out of these peoples paths but be on the look out as they will have large flocks of players to spread there word.
Number 9-Guardian Angels
The Guardian Angels of DayZ are a love and fear of players. These players mostly act as a sub section of hero's but they don't show themselves, they mostly help players being attacked and then leave or never show themselves these players can be of great love and fear to certain players but overall are looked upon in a good light.
Number 10-The Medic
Ah yes the field medic of DayZ, these friendly chaps are godsends when you have been beaten and bruised badly they are mostly friendly and try to help all sometimes they ask for payment which is understandable. Of course some players kill medics after they have helped them which is frowned upon but overall field medics are great helps to your health in DayZ when your in a pickle.
Number 11-The Shop Owner
The Shop Owner is what it sounds like, a player who makes a shop where he sells or gives out goods to you and your fellow DayZ players, these lads are great as they remove the problems of looting all the buildings and have it all located in one spot most players give these gents a tip of the hat as they really are helpful. Of course some sour players will try to attack the said shop so most shop owners have guards to protect him and his good.
Number 12-The Cheater
Ah yes the hacker, folk that have been looked upon by the people of DayZ as pure evil and putrid. To each there own I say but anyways hackers come in 3 types. Number one is the troll hacker which is a hacker that randomly will mess with a player they can cause havoc but mostly try to just play a sort of prank more or less a sub section of a troll but with more power. Number 2 is the legit hacker which wants to cause harm to you by killing you and making your game break down these chaps can be quite hostile so watch out. And Number 3 is the horror hacker they will come out at night and play creepy music and use there hacking powers to install fear on a survivors C Driv....... I mean brain but overall sorta like a troll hacker.
Number 13-The Camper
The Camper is a type of player that is fully committed to sitting in one spot and waiting and waiting and waiting and.... I think you get the point these campers mostly sit around to wait for people to come by so that they can shoot them and take the spoils, so watch out for these chaps as they can cause major problems for your health and well being.
Number 14-The Hopper
The Hopper of DayZ are people who jump from server to server to gain loot and supply's faster and easier. These players can sometimes be easily killed as when someone is looting they will rise up in front of you while still spawning so you can easily gun them down and give them a bad taste in there mouth, as all there hard work has been spoiled as you take joy in your new loot. Overall they can be problematic to players and the overall loot pool of a server.
Number 15-The KOSer
The KOSer of DayZ is what you would call the most paranoid of the DayZ land as they will not try to talk, trade or anything the only thing they will try and give you is pure lead to the face. These chaps are major threats as they will kill you with no thought about it other than your dead and there alive so watch out as they are major threats to your life, they would be considered a sub section of the bandits more or less.
Number 16-The Pure Badass
Oh boy these people on your travels are the best of the best and are a godsend to have on your side they seem to kill anything in there path and have great luck. Overall these guys are like the bread and butter of DayZ.
Number 17-The Neutral
The Neutral of DayZ is a player of pure none want to pick a side, these chaps will not choose a side over another bandit or hero or pants or shorts they will stay neutral on the matter or open a can of coke and watch as bandits and heroes fight over the last can of beans left in the middle of the NWAF so overall a subsection of the average joe but less picky.
Number 18-The Mix
The Mix player is something of a interesting experience as they have no set standing, they can be bad, good, evil, neutral, pantsless and shirtless or anything else. Overall a interesting "Mix" causes them to be a interesting thing to watch and see what they do next.
Number 19-The Ambusher
The Ambushers of DayZ sometime travel in packs or lone wolf. The Chaps will ambush players from brush and rob or kill you. More or less a subsection of the bandit but less killing and more robbing.
A interesting site to see if your not the one being robbed that is.
Number 20-The Coward
The coward of DayZ is the worst of its kind they will run away when in the heat of battle leaving teammates to die at the hand of enemy's and can not be trusted, these chaps are mostly shot by there comrade after a good amount of time has passed and bullets have gone into them but overall never trust and never put your life in there hands during battle.
Number 21-The Disinfectant Drinker
Ah yes the cult hit the disinfectant spray has made some chaps go crazy for the stuff like it was liquid gold, they will seek out any bottles of it and will go ape if you have it and won't give it to them so watch out or you might become the next disinfectant spray sacrifice.
Number 22-The Rotton Food Eater
The world of DayZ and the people of it are even harsher and this is why some men are forced to eat rotten food. It's not the best thing but it can save your life but these chaps only eat rotten food no matter what thinking of it as a snack that only they should have and no one else.
Number 23-The Food Hoarder
The food hoarder of DayZ can be a plague as these chaps will not only take all of the food but only food that is fresh leaving new spawns or any players starving and cursing there names as they write there last words on a piece of paper in some town.
Number 24-The Fist Fighter
The Fist Fighter of DayZ is a player of pure honor they will only accept fights with fists and only then will you be on there level of epicness to fight them.

I'm the looter, I run across the map and loot for days so I can shoot zombies and die properly against the first person I met. I have killed 3 people in 400h of game, including one of my friend by mistake.
