Fahrenheit video game - Characters
Lucas Kane: The primary male protagonist of the game, and the one who the player will be controlling for most of the game. Lucas, try as he might to fit in, is hardly an everyday Joe milling through life in Manhattan. He grew up with his parents and brother on a military base where scientific experiments were conducted, and now works as a technical expert for a bank before going home to his apartment. He's currently single, having recently broken up with his previous girlfriend Tiffany Harper, for whom he still has feelings. His hobbies include playing the guitar and boxing. There are times where he will see startling visions about those he knows or the situations around him, which have an uncanny method of coming true, although most people he knows pass this off as coincidence. When he finds himself killing another man in a diner restroom, against his own will, the race is on to figure out who is the puppeteer moving his strings.
Carla Valenti: The primary female protagonist of the game. Carla is an inspector with the NYPD, with a serious outlook about work and effort. She lives in a high-rise across from a friendly neighbour, a gay stock market follower named Tommy who likes to dabble in fortune telling using the tarot. Naturally inquisitive and completionist, Carla tends to brood over cases which are going nowhere, working long hours trying to find that one clue that might be eluding her. She is highly claustrophobic; prone to panic attacks if she can't keep her mind on the task at hand when inside dark, enclosed spaces.
Tyler Miles: Carla's partner, he has a much more lackadaisical attitude towards life, although he is very devoted both to his job and his fianceƩ, Samantha Malone ('Sam' as he calls her). The long hours and increasing cold have begun to sink his spirits greatly, and this latest murder case hasn't helped, leaving him to reconsider life as a police officer and perhaps leaving for Florida with Sam to run her parents' store. His hobbies include playing basketball, video games (which he often talks about or makes references to) and collecting 1970s memorabilia and vinyl Motown albums.
Markus Kane: Lucas' brother and a devout Catholic, working as a priest at Saint Paul's Church. He worries about the current state of affairs involving his brother, but his faith prevents him from seeing very much past the fact that Lucas has murdered a man, despite his best efforts. When they were kids, Markus tried to get Lucas, who was something of a loner, more involved with the other children on their military base home.
The Oracle: A man of unknown identity, who has begun appearing in Lucas' visions. He has only been seen wearing a gray hooded coat which hides his face, further making his true self a mystery.
The Indigo Child: Rumoured to be nothing more than an ancient myth long lost to the sands of time. However, dark forces seem to have recently developed an interest in the story... What is his or her secret?
