The protagonist of the first game, a new guy assigned to F.E.A.R. and tasked to hunt down Paxton Fettel. Little is known of him except that he has reflexes beyond human ability.
* BadassBeard: As of ''F.E.A.R. 3'', being a RogueAgent and all.
* BulletTime: Everything appears to go this way when the Point Man triggers his Reflex/Slo-Mo powers, though in reality he is moving [[SuperSpeed superhumanly fast]]. This appears to be a manifestation of his psychic abilities.

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: No one ever refers to him by his real name, even in the third game when the Phase Commanders are issuing orders to kill both him and Jin.
* FeaturelessProtagonist: In the first game he can only be seen in reflections, where he's wearing goggles and a blue balaclava that completely obscure his face. Averted in the third, when he has a face of his very own.
* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler: His abusive upbringing and playing always-second-best to Fettel cause him intense trauma that becomes apparent in ''F.3.A.R''.]]
* HeroicMime: It is strongly implied he actually ''is'' mute; he never says a single word in any of the games.
* ImplacableMan: Really, the entirety of FEAR 3. The game could be described as a long string of apocalyptic disasters combined with continuous heavy assault by an army of clones, robots, and helicopters, as well as MindScrew psychic monster phenomena on a scale that can only be rated as "[[EldritchAbomination demonic]]", all ''completely and utterly failing to stop'' him. All the areas you play through are pretty much getting torn down around you.
* KubrickStare: Of the "I-will-skullfuck-you-to-death" kind. It's his default mode.
* LightningBruiser: Just ask any [[OhCrap freaked-out]] Replica when he goes Slow-Mo.
--> He's too fast!
--> We can't stop him!
* MadeOfIron: He gets thrown out of a three-story building from an explosion set off by Alma and doesn't suffer lethal injuries at all. And later, he survives a nuclear blast at point-blank that leaves a mile-wide crater and flash-fries people miles away into ash. ''F.E.A.R.: Extraction Point'' has a tunnel bomb flinging him several dozens of feet in the air before he crash lands on a roof on a nearby parking garage. ''F.E.A.R. 3'' involves him surviving a helicopter crash, getting launched a few hundred feet by a blast from Fettel, the crashing of a high-altitude transportation pod, and an entire prison collapsing on his head.
* ManChild: Not explicit, but he was apparently put into stasis as an adolescent before being memory wiped, surgically modified, and trained years later. It manifests through his single-minded determination to kill everything in his way and his lack of speech and/or characterisation beyond that end.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Blowing up the Origin Facility did nothing but [[spoiler:cause a nuclear explosion beneath Fairport that wiped out all evidence of Armacham's wrongdoing and killed thousands of its residents - but not [[TheHeavy Alma]], as intended]].
* NoNameGiven: Which is why [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep Everyone Calls Him "Point Man"]].
* OneManArmy: The Replica are all [[HeavilyArmoredMook Heavily Armed]] [[SuperSoldier Super Soldiers]]; he kills five-hundred of them ''over the course of two days''. Of course, the rampage he goes on in ''F.E.A.R. 3'' makes this look like an opening act by comparison. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Douglas Holiday, who calls him "a bad motherfucker".
* PlayerCharacter: Well, of ''F.E.A.R.'' and ''F.E.A.R.: Extraction Point'', anyway.

[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_sergeant_2401.jpg]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' none
The unknown hero of ''Perseus Mandate'', the point man of the Second F.E.A.R. Team. Little is known about him, other than that he's a Sergeant.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: A comment by Fettel about the similarities between the Sergeant and the Point Man and a throwaway line by the Nightcrawler Commander labelling him as "another of Betters's tin-men" suggest he is no regular human and is instead somehow related to the Point Man, likely a clone of him. Sadly, given the character has been removed from canon, we will never discover the Sarge's true nature (however, to show how much weight he had in the canon, the Point Man's true face in the third game is ''strikingly'' similar to the Sergeant's face model in this game's files, lending credibility to the clone theory).
* BulletTime: Just like the Point Man.
* {{Expy}}: Both out and in-universe, of the Point Man, hence his abilities and overall personality.
* FeaturelessProtagonist: Virtually nothing is known about the Sergeant, unlike the Point Man, whose character is later fleshed out.
%%* HeroicMime
* MadeOfIron: What Point Man can do, he probably does as good. Although, this time, the Alma meetup is in an office building and he endures nuclear devastation by making it underground.
* LightningBruiser: Even Nightcrawlers find his abilities intimidating.
* NoNameGiven: Same as the Point Man, which is why [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep Everyone Calls Him "Sergeant"]].
* OneManArmy: While his body count isn't at par with the Point Man's, he has definitely gone through as much hell as him, if not ''even more''. Aside from having more paranormal kills in one single interval (Interval [[FourIsDeath 4]], Devastation) than the Point Man has fought '''in the entire original campaign, ''Extraction Point'' included''', the Sergeant crossed guns with the [[BadassArmy Nightcrawler organization]], a group much more well-trained and well-equipped than Replicas or ATC rent-a-cops (both of whom are fought by the Sergeant in reasonably-sized squads of their best - ATC Riot Troops can easily hold their own against Replica Elites), and that's not counting the [[BossInMookClothing tough-as-nails Nightcrawler Elites]] and [[ThatOneBoss their commander]]. This magnitude of opposition matches (and quite possibly exceeds) anything the Point Man or Becket confront in any of the games they appears in.
* PlayerCharacter: In ''F.E.A.R.: Perseus Mandate'', this guy is you.

The PlayerCharacter of ''Project Origin'', Becket is a highly gifted soldier with latent psychic abilities, which are brought to the forefront by Project Harbinger. He is a member of a special delta unit known as "Dark Signal," which consists exclusively of Harbinger subjects, who are all potential Replica commanders. Becket's psychic potential is very strong - equal to Paxton Fettel - but it has yet to be trained.
* BadassNormal: At the beginning of the game, there's nothing unusual about him beyond latent psychic abilities, which allow him to see hallucinations of Alma. An Armacham evaluation indicates that he has exceptional physical ability but [[BookDumb lackluster academics]].
* BulletTime: Justified after he gets the Harbinger Treatment by Dr. York, requested by Genevieve Aristide.

''F.E.A.R.: Extraction Point'' has a tunnel bomb flinging him several dozens of feet in the air before he crash lands on a roof on a nearby parking garage. ''F.E.A.R. 3'' involves him surviving a helicopter crash, getting launched a few hundred feet by a blast from Fettel, the crashing of a high-altitude transportation pod, and an entire prison collapsing on his head.
* ManChild: Not explicit, but he was apparently put into stasis as an adolescent before being memory wiped, surgically modified, and trained years later. It manifests through his single-minded determination to kill everything in his way and his lack of speech and/or characterisation beyond that end.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Blowing up the Origin Facility did nothing but [[spoiler:cause a nuclear explosion beneath Fairport that wiped out all evidence of Armacham's wrongdoing and killed thousands of its residents - but not [[TheHeavy Alma]], as intended]].
* NoNameGiven: Which is why [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep Everyone Calls Him "Point Man"]].
* OneManArmy: The Replica are all [[HeavilyArmoredMook Heavily Armed]] [[SuperSoldier Super Soldiers]]; he kills five-hundred of them ''over the course of two days''. Of course, the rampage he goes on in ''F.E.A.R. 3'' makes this look like an opening act by comparison. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Douglas Holiday, who calls him "a bad motherfucker".
* PlayerCharacter: Well, of ''F.E.A.R.'' and ''F.E.A.R.: Extraction Point'', anyway.
* ProtagonistWithoutAPast: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Paxton Fettel near the end of the first game. ''F.3.A.R.'' goes into some detail about his past, or at least some of the highlights of it.
* RequiredSecondaryPowers: In the third game he takes part in a psychic battle, so he would appear to have capabilities similar to Becket and Keegan (as implied by his reflexes). However, it is later noted that his potential as a psychic is extremely ''low'' - below normal - as opposed to Becket and Keegan, who are both unusually powerful. It may be that his "lack" of power is power itself, simply expressed differently, but the mechanics behind measuring someone's psychic potential aren't very clear.
* TheReveal: [[spoiler:He is Alma's first son.]]
%%* {{The Hero}}
* SuperSpeed: When his slo-mo powers are triggered, he moves with blurring speed from the perspective of ordinary humans.
* TheUnfavorite: While growing up, [[spoiler: he was consistently referred to as the "weaker" prototype by all of the Armacham researchers, and told he wasn't special like Fettel.]]
* [[WhenSheSmiles When He Smiles]]: At two points in ''F.E.A.R. 3''. [[spoiler:His face softens the slightest bit when he sees Jin, and his stoic demeanor actually cracks into a faint, fond smile when he holds his baby sibling.]]

[[folder:The Sergeant]]
!!'''The Sergeant'''
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_sergeant_2401.jpg]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' none
The unknown hero of ''Perseus Mandate'', the point man of the Second F.E.A.R. Team. Little is known about him, other than that he's a Sergeant.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: A comment by Fettel about the similarities between the Sergeant and the Point Man and a throwaway line by the Nightcrawler Commander labelling him as "another of Betters's tin-men" suggest he is no regular human and is instead somehow related to the Point Man, likely a clone of him. Sadly, given the character has been removed from canon, we will never discover the Sarge's true nature (however, to show how much weight he had in the canon, the Point Man's true face in the third game is ''strikingly'' similar to the Sergeant's face model in this game's files, lending credibility to the clone theory).
* BulletTime: Just like the Point Man.
* {{Expy}}: Both out and in-universe, of the Point Man, hence his abilities and overall personality.
* FeaturelessProtagonist: Virtually nothing is known about the Sergeant, unlike the Point Man, whose character is later fleshed out.
%%* HeroicMime
* MadeOfIron: What Point Man can do, he probably does as good. Although, this time, the Alma meetup is in an office building and he endures nuclear devastation by making it underground.
* LightningBruiser: Even Nightcrawlers find his abilities intimidating.
* NoNameGiven: Same as the Point Man, which is why [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep Everyone Calls Him "Sergeant"]].
* OneManArmy: While his body count isn't at par with the Point Man's, he has definitely gone through as much hell as him, if not ''even more''. Aside from having more paranormal kills in one single interval (Interval [[FourIsDeath 4]], Devastation) than the Point Man has fought '''in the entire original campaign, ''Extraction Point'' included''', the Sergeant crossed guns with the [[BadassArmy Nightcrawler organization]], a group much more well-trained and well-equipped than Replicas or ATC rent-a-cops (both of whom are fought by the Sergeant in reasonably-sized squads of their best - ATC Riot Troops can easily hold their own against Replica Elites), and that's not counting the [[BossInMookClothing tough-as-nails Nightcrawler Elites]] and [[ThatOneBoss their commander]]. This magnitude of opposition matches (and quite possibly exceeds) anything the Point Man or Becket confront in any of the games they appears in.
* PlayerCharacter: In ''F.E.A.R.: Perseus Mandate'', this guy is you.
* ProtagonistWithoutAPast: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded again]] by Paxton Fettel.

[[folder:Sergeant Michael Becket]]
!!'''Sergeant Michael Becket'''
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/250px-beckett_1028.jpg]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' none (''F.E.A.R. 2''), Creator/RobinAtkinDownes (''F.3.A.R'')
The PlayerCharacter of ''Project Origin'', Becket is a highly gifted soldier with latent psychic abilities, which are brought to the forefront by Project Harbinger. He is a member of a special delta unit known as "Dark Signal," which consists exclusively of Harbinger subjects, who are all potential Replica commanders. Becket's psychic potential is very strong - equal to Paxton Fettel - but it has yet to be trained.
* BadassNormal: At the beginning of the game, there's nothing unusual about him beyond latent psychic abilities, which allow him to see hallucinations of Alma. An Armacham evaluation indicates that he has exceptional physical ability but [[BookDumb lackluster academics]].
* BulletTime: Justified after he gets the Harbinger Treatment by Dr. York, requested by Genevieve Aristide.
* CoolShades: Which [[DiegeticInterface justify the heads-up display]].
* DemonicPossession: When [[spoiler: Fettel possesses him to gain access to his memories.]]
* DidYouJustRomanceCthulhu: [[spoiler:[[SubvertedTrope subverted]]. [[HumanoidAbomination Alma]] ''rapes him'' at the end of the game after being his AxCrazy StalkerWithACrush throughout the game.]]
* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: [[spoiler: Averted horrifically in the ending of ''F.E.A.R. 2.'' Alma unambiguously rapes him, and it's one of the most disturbing things in a very frightening game.]]
* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Rapidly becomes one after some improvised surgery that [[spoiler:directly links him to Alma]].
* HeroicMime: In ''Project Origin''. In ''F.E.A.R. 3'', he's voiced.
* HeroicWillpower: He is the ''only'' person who is able to [[spoiler:retain control of himself while Fettel is possessing his body.]]
%%* LightningBruiser
* LudicrousGibs: [[spoiler:His death, when Fettel's possession time runs out. The entire cell becomes...goopy.]]
%%* MadeOfIron
* OneManArmy: Quoth his enemies: "Will someone just fucking shoot him already?"
* RapeAsDrama: [[spoiler:He's on the receiving end - by ''Alma''. This is not played as anything but awful and traumatic.]]
* SanitySlippage: A combination of Alma's MindRape powers, [[spoiler:her actually raping him]], and being held captive by Armacham for nine months while being continuously tested and experimented on has left him a twitching, cowering ruin of a man.
** Which also leads to him [[PunctuatedForEmphasis screaming this line]] after one of the third game's interval ending cutscenes...

!!'''Foxtrot 813'''
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/foxtrot_813_3554.jpg]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Peter Lurie
A Replica that goes rogue during the events of ''Project Origin'' when Paxton Fettel instructs him to free his commander - Fettel himself - from imprisonment.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: A disciplined Replica in an army of identical Replica who very suddenly massacres his own squadron and runs off alone thanks to psychic influence.
* BulletTime: Thanks to Paxton Fettel.
* CloneByConversion: Well, he was already a perfect physical copy of Fettel. [[spoiler:You could say Fettel was simply unlocking his full potential.]]
* CreepyMonotone: As noted below, Replica have a surprising array of emotions, given their origin, and 813 is no different. After Paxton contacts him, his inflection plunges from normal enough into flat, hollow and icy, immediately alerting the others that something isn't right.

* WillingChanneler: [[spoiler:He allows himself to become possessed by Fettel's ghost, overwriting whatever independent will he had and essentially bringing Fettel back to life. At least in that continuity.]]
