Name: James Sunderland
Age: 29
Sex: М
Job: Clerk
Profile: The protagonist. A letter from his late wife Mary has lead him to Silent
Hill.
|
In the initial
stages of the scenario, he was a character who had two
personalities, "Joseph" and "James." The name "Joseph" was
borrowed from the name of a man suspected of being Jack the
Ripper, and "James" is a derivative. |

The letter James received from Mary was an illusion. Weary of nursing
his wife's poor health, he took her life with his own hands to release
her from the misery of her illness. However, he was unable to withstand
the weight of his crime, and, immersed in his own delusions, one can
think that he was drawn to the town of Silent Hill. |

М a r y S h e p h е r d S u n d е r l a n d
Name: Mary Shepherd-Sunderland
Age: 25
Sex: F
Job: Housewife
Profile: James' wife, who supposedly died of an illness three years ago.
Ever since visiting Silent Hill with James, it has been a place of
memories for the two of them.
|
Her name is taken from
the victim Mary Kelly in the "Jack the Ripper" case, who was
living with the suspect Joseph as detailed in case files
regarding the murders. |
|
R a i s o n d ' e t r e
Mary says various things in each ending to James, who has
become aware of the crime he has committed. It is
conceivable that her death three years ago is merely James'
delusion. |

М а r i a
Name: Maria
Age: 25
Sex: F
Job: Dancer
Profile: A woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to Mary, although her
personality and taste in clothing are completely opposite. For some
reason, she tags along with James.
|
In the original
scenario, the heroine also had an existence characterized by a
double personality. The first personality is "Mary," so for the
other, the name "Maria" is derived from that. |
|
R
a i s o n d ' e t r e
Maria was produced by James' delusions as a result of his inability
to bear the weight of the crime of killing his wife. It is
established in the third game that her model was a dancer at the
club Heaven's Night. |
|
L a u r а
Name: Laura
Age: 8
Sex: F
Job: --
Profile: A young girl who was a patient in the same hospital as Mary.
Having no mother of her own, Laura loved Mary as if she were her real
mother.
|
|
Her name is taken
from the nonfiction work No Language But a Cry by Richard
D'Ambrosio, the story of a young girl's search for happiness
while struggling to overcome the scars of abuse. |
|
R
a i s o n d ' e t r e
Of all the characters, she is the only one who does not hold any
darknessin her heart. It may be that she came to Silent Hill looking for
Mary. To her the town appears to be normal; she does not see any
monsters, nor does she see Maria. |

А n g e l а О r о s c о
Name: Angela Orosco
Age: 19
Sex: F
Job: Unknown
Profile: A girl who came to Silent Hill in
search of her mother. After graduating high school, she ran away from
home but was found and brought back by her father.
|
| Her name is borrowed from the protagonist of the film, "The
Net." This religious name meaning "angel" is common among
Hispanics, thereby giving rise to the implied "immigrant" as
well. |
|
R
a i s o n d ' e t r e
From the article in the bloodstained newspaper, the conclusion can be
made that Angela was unable to bear her abuse and took her father's
life. After this incident, being in a state of emotional turmoil, one
can think that she was called to Silent Hill. |
|
E d d i e D о m b r о w s k i
Name: Eddie Dombrowski
Age: 23
Sex: М
Job: Gas station employee (part time)
Profile: A young man who is teased because of his weight. Although he is usually
passive, there is a side to him that is extremely violent.
|
| In the initial stages of the scenario,
Eddie was actually a very cheerful character. Therefore, the name
was borrowed from Eddie Murphy. In the end however, we changed his
personality completely. |
|
R
a i s o n d ' e t r e
According to one of Eddie's monologues, his anger and frustration at
the way he was treated by others reached a climax when he killed a
dog in a fit of rage and also shot the dog's owner in the leg. While
running from the police, he began to have feelings of guilt, and one
can think that he was called to Silent Hill. |
