!!Ithaqua - The Night Watch

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nightwatch.png]]

Born as a twin son of the Norwell family in a town wracked by superstition, the boy was presumed stillborn by his family and was abandoned and left to rot in the wilderness during a raging blizzard. Found, revived and later raised by a suspected witch, the boy would remain unaware of his true origins up until the day that the magistrate's son - his face a mirror to that of the boy's - would lead a mob of villagers into the Icy Forest and take away his mother to be tortured. Though the boy would succeed in infiltrating the village and rescuing his mother, he would return to his home in the woods with a woman who could no longer recognise him and whose remaining life would prove to be short-lived. From that day forward, anyone who chose to enter the northern forest on a stormy night would find themselves prey to Ithaqua, the walking death.
->'''Voiced by:''' An Zhi (Chinese)
----
* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: Nathaniel Norwell, son of the local village's magistrate, is said to have been a dead-ringer to his long-lost twin brother; something that proved to be incredibly useful when the latter set out to rescue his mother.
* AmbiguousSituation: Concerning his "revival from the dead". Was his family simply too quick to write him off as stillborn and leave him to rot in the forest, only for the presumed witch to nurse him back to health via the use of body heat, or did he truly die and was in fact brought back to life by an actual witch?
* HappilyAdopted: Upon being found abandoned in the forest during a blizzard, the boy was subsequently found by a red-haired and green-eyed suspected witch, who would go on to raise the boy as her own, teaching him how to read and write. Even after unwilling coming into contact with his biological family, the boy's loyalties remained with his adopted mother, a love that would persist long after she died from her wounds.
* KillAndReplace: Upon infiltrating the village, the boy murdered his long-lost twin and disguised himself as him, forging a suicide note in his brother's handwriting before escaping back to his forest home with his mother. The only person to suspect foul play was the town's magistrate, who was, nevertheless, incredibly reluctant to reveal his reasoning for his accusations.
* OnlyOneName: Having thought him dead, his family felt no need to give the boy his own name or consider him a part of the Norwell family. His deductions, likewise, make no mention of what his adopted mother may have named him. In the end, Ithaqua is both the only name he is known to possess and the only name he seemingly desires to be known by.
* ParentalAbandonment: On account of his parents - or at the very least his father - presuming him dead at birth and leaving his "corpse" to rot in the forest, lest their family be accused of falling prey to a witch's curse.

!!Sangria - The Opera Singer

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/operasingeridentityv.png]]

For years, Sangria's life was bathed in grey. Onstage she played the role of a tool as the theatre's means of making money; offstage she was little more than a toy for her father, to beat and abuse as he saw fit. It was not until that fateful day where she would encounter that stroke of red, bathed on the woman with a ram symbol painted between her brows, that all would be rewritten. Though her act of defiance led her back to that small closet from her childhood, the words of the lady in red allowed Sangria to understand a dark secret of mankind; there can be no rebirth without pain. On that silent night, when the throat of the "lamb" was slit and the sacred candlelight illuminated the face of the lady in red, everything that Sangria had wished for came true. Once the ritual to summon the "gods" was invoked, nothing would ever be the same. The cheers of the audience lit Sangria's heart ablaze; once the performance was complete, the theatre was left lifeless and in ruins. All that remained was a spotless cape hanging in the dressing room, and the ghostly shadow of a mountain ram.
->'''Voiced by:'''
----
* AbusiveParents: Sangria's father was an opera house manager, and also a rather excessive drinker, whose belt was responsible for a great number of marks that covered his daughter's back. As a child, Sangria would often be forced to perform onstage, and be harshly punished if she either refused or failed to live up to her father's expectations. Her father's abuse of her did not cease once she had come of age, with him having no issue throwing her back into a small closet that she had frequently been locked in during her childhood for violating the rule prohibiting actors from becoming too close to members of the audience.
* DarkIsEvil: A hunter who walks in the shadows and can literally merge with it, as well as wearing completely dark clothing.
* MissingMom: The only mention we have of Sangria's mother is Sangria's extended backstory noting how her mother drinking the contents of a stench-filled bowl set the stage for what would be Sangria's life prior to her fateful meeting with the lady in red.
* SelfMadeOrphan: It is all but outright stated that Sangria murdered her father after years of suffering his abuse.
* ShadowWalker: Her main ability.
* UncertainDoom: Her final deduction reveals that, at the end of her final performance, Sangria chose to leap into the suspiciously realistic flames that surrounded her, as told by apparent eyewitness accounts. In none of these accounts did Sangria walk out during the curtain call afterwards.
* VillainTeleportation: Can teleport to locations she has previously passed in her furtive mode.

Golden Luck slipped through Norton Campbell's grasp, incapable of mending his ever-shattered body, plunging him deeper into agony. He yearned for a chance to change his fate. Having awakened amidst the fiery ashes and ruins, our dear miner found himself reborn.

For further information, specifically related to his Survivor persona, see Prospector.
----
* CreepyLongArms: His arms were shattered and then re-joined with magnetic rock, significantly extending them.
* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: Prospector's hunter form was revealed around the time of Time of Reunion, in a video called "Time for hunting" but it was much more similar to Hell Ember than the design we have now.
* MeaningfulName: His title is a reference to what Benny refers to Norton as in the final line in a foreign translation of Norton's first letter - in reference to Norton's deceitful nature - after coming to the realisation that [[BitchInSheepsClothing Norton]] had stolen his book of mining records and gone off to claim whatever he could find in the Golden Cave for himself after departing without a word and [[EtTuBrute leaving Benny to rot]].

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/clerk_hunter.png]]

As she got older, Keigan came to understand that only the voices of people with "power" were heard. But it doesn't matter, now she is enough to be the one who can decide everything.
->'''Voiced by:''' Sun Chang (Chinese), Creator/LaniMinella (English)
----
* AmbiguousSituation: Orpheus and Alice seem to believe that the "hunters" are [[spoiler: drug induced distorted versions of different factors during the "Carnival Games" like the executioners or other survivors]]. Keigan, however, contradicts this idea, as [[spoiler: she is the only experiment subject under the influence of the manor's drugs according to Jack's experiment file]]. How Keigan became a hunter and developed her "special abilities" is unclear.
* CaneFu: Uses one as a melee weapon.
* DependingOnTheArtist: Some of her appearances in anniversary and promotional art depicts her a bit less monstrous looking.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Keigan first appears in Jack's second letter, where she acts as both the interviewer and interviewee recounting her encounter with the Ripper in the manor (something that her Background story trailer implies is something she may do on a common basis).
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Calling her evil might be an exaggeration, but Keigan is all but outright stated to have murdered her brother and is heavily implied to be associated with the people in charge of the manor. Nevertheless, her deductions imply that she genuinely cares about her sister-in-law and young nephew.
* GenderBlenderName: Her first and middle names are traditionally masculine, though "Keigan" has become a somewhat gender neutral name in current-day.
* FightingIrish: Keigan is of Irish descent and has no problem attacking Survivors who cross her path.
* {{Gonk}}: She exploits this trope. Formerly a BigBeautifulWoman, Keagan [[TarnishingTheirOwnBeauty purposely modified her appearance]] so that she would not be considered attractive for an arranged marriage.
* {{Hypocrite}}: She deemed her brother unfit to represent justice because he was taking bribes, but her solution to the problem was poison him. Her Background story trailer implies that deep down, [[HypocrisyNod she is aware that she is this.]]
* HypocriteHasAPoint: Even if her methods were somewhat morally questionable, it would be quite unlikely that anything else could be done about her brother, considering the laws of the time, his connections and the fact that she was a woman, it is extremely likely that her brother would become a KarmaHoudini if she didn't act.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Her word-for-word justification for poisoning her brother, who was accepting bribes, and therefore unfit to be a judge (according to her).
* ALighterShadeOfGrey: Although Keigan is a genuinely well-intentioned woman and is shown to be quite kind, she undoubtedly used some morally questionable methods to get where she is today, having poisoned her brother due to the fact that he was a corrupt judge as [[KarmaHoudiniWarranty she considered it unlikely that he would be affected by any consequences]], as he had money and connections ([[CrapsackWorld which considering the world they live]], [[VillainHasAPoint isn't entirely wrong]]).
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: How she altered her appearance is never spelled out. It could be anything from plastic surgery, to legitimate supernatural means.
* MenActWomenAre: Sadly, Keigan's freedom to speak her mind was expected to [[DeliberateValuesDissonance stay at the dinner table]], while her brothers were encouraged to pursue their similarly career-orientated dreams.
* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: She has an unnatural amount of incredibly long, frightening teeth hidden under her frown.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: {{Downplayed}}. While other humanoid hunters have their quirks, Keigan is the only character intentionally drawn to have an unrealistic design, having a [[TopHeavyGuy noticeably large body but thin arms and legs]] with the intention of making her look like a caricature. She's also the only hunter to have visible normal eyes instead of [[BlackEyesOfEvil black eyes]] [[note]]Burke has them too, but they are covered by his glasses. [[/note]]
* PerpetualFrowner: Aside from some brief flashbacks in her Background story trailer, she almost never smiles.
* PromotedToPlayable: First appears as the unseen author of Jack's second letter. Come the following year, Keigan was made a playable Hunter.
* TopHeavyGuy: A rare female example; Her neck, chest, upper torso, and rump are quite large and bountiful, contrasting greatly with her thin limbs.
* UnseenNoMore: Keigan is first alluded to in Jack's second letter, and was added to the game as a playable character the following year.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: As her Background story trailer goes on, the voices of her younger and older selves begin to merge together.

* DealWithTheDevil: Hinted at during his Background Story trailer and further explored in his Deductions.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Initially appears in Prisoner's character trailer, 2 years prior to his release. Additionally, a man of his description is described in Ann's 1st and 2nd Character Day letters.
* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: Alva's first appearance in Luca's Character Trailer appeared very different to his appearance when he became playable.
* TheMentor: Took on Luca Balsa as a student. Many people believed that Luca was being trained to inherit Alva's mantle.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: First name comes from Thomas Alva Edison's middle name.
* NoHistoricalFiguresWereHarmed: Initially based on Thomas Alva Edison, an American inventor.
* PromotedToPlayable: First appears in Prisoner's character trailer before later being made playable.

* GigglingVillain: It is impossible not to hear their constant cackling, especially the youngest brother, [[TheHyena Joking Will.]]
* HaughtyHmph: Reticent Will gives an impressively grumpy "MEH" while the trio searches for Survivors.
* TheKilljoy: Reticent Will, [[FunHatingVillain The Eldest Brother]], tends to growl and scoff loudly while also tossing makeshift bear-traps at Survivors to either slow them down or halt their movements completely as a means of ending a chase faster.
* ParentalAbandonment: The three brothers were abandoned by their parents at a young age.
* RollingAttack: When entering "wheel form".
* SerialKiller: A trio of them; the brothers do a performance at night, and as soon as they are alone with the last spectator, they ask [[PreMortemOneLiner "Have you seen our parents?"]] Whatever the spectator responds with, it always ends with a pile of crushed, rotting human remains being hidden in the back alleys.
* SignificantReferenceDate: The brothers Character Day is on Saint Catherine's Day, which commemorates the martyrdom of [[UsefulNotes/PatronSaints Christian Patron Saint Catherine of Alexandria]], who was set to be executed via a breaking wheel, only to be beheaded instead after the breaking wheel broke after she touched it. It is this said saint, as well as the events leading up to her death, that inspired the name of the theatre where the Will Brothers performed and, as their character trailer shows, their most common performance onstage.
* StatusInflictionAttack: Their main ability is entering Wheel Form and running over Survivors to Pierce them with Splinters of wood and metal. These Piercings don't inhibit the Survivors in any way, rather, they add stacks of potential damage to them, meaning that with enough stacks of pierce, that Survivor is in danger of being [[OneHitPointWonder instantly incapacitated]] when next hit by a regular Attack.
* YouAreNumberSix: Many factors in their second letter, such as the brothers' uneasiness around a pale-skinned sickly man, the implication that their game was made up of performers, and the subtle hint that the wine they digested may have been drugged, point to them being [[spoiler:the test candidate(s) with the serial number 3-?-2 alluded to in Antonio's Experiment File.]]

The unheard are doomed to be slaughtered, like fish in a net. It was only after grasping this harsh truth that Grace took up her harpoon.
->'''Voiced by:''' Anqi Zhang (Chinese), Creator/HoukoKuwashima (Japanese)
----
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Even before her transformation into a Hunter; her gill-like scars are shown to have been present on her neck since she was a young girl. She is also said to have felt more of a connection to the fish swimming in the water than she did to the humans in her village.
* CuteMute: Is said to have never uttered a single word in her life and is one of the more innocent-looking Hunters, both before and after her transformation.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Can be briefly glimpsed during the official Time of Reunion announcement trailer, which premiered before the character was officially revealed.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Has what seem to be scars on her neck that resemble gills.
* MysteriousPast: No hint is made as to why she was abandoned as a baby and left to float upstream in a broken fishing basket, nor is any explanation give for her gill-like scars.
* MosesInTheBulrushes: Was found in a broken fishing basket as a baby, after floating upstream near a fishing village.
* OnlyOneName: Despite seemingly being adopted by a local couple from the village, her deductions make no mention of her surname. This, of course, is to assume she was even given one.
* OurMermaidsAreDifferent: Implied to be the "mermaid" that is alluded to in the Time of Reunion announcement trailer.
* TheScapegoat: When disaster once again struck the fishing village she resided in, the villagers came to believe that their previous worship of Grace, brought about by the belief that it was her arrival in the village that had brought about the end of a previous disaster, had led to them inadvertently betraying the "true gods" who were punishing them for their heresy.
* TheSpeechless: Is said to have been unable to speak ever since she was a child. This led to her being isolated by her peers in the village as a result.
* TragicVillain: Was sunk to the bottom of the lake by the people of her village after they became convinced that she was responsible for the fishing disaster that was plaguing them.

[[folder:Philippe - The Wax Artist]]
!!Philippe - The Wax Artist
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/waxartist1.png]]

Philippe believes one's face and demeanor reflect evil and malice. This belief is not only his research thesis but also the essence of his aesthetic aspirations. After all, wax sculpting is an art born of science. Consider this—once his theory is finally confirmed, how many future criminals will be strangled in the cradle before being given a chance to taint the world?

Philippe was determined to eke out a career from his talent, and when an unexpected encounter led to a significant breakthrough in his research and craft, the beautiful world of his imagining seemed within reach. However, his world was turned upside-down, and his delusions of grandeur faded into the shadows. The price of his weakness and inaction was the loss of something irreplaceable—of the thing he held dearest.

Plagued with insurmountable guilt and remorse, Philippe convinced himself that the only way to repent for his failings was to move forward, in both life and art. Welcome to my waxwork exhibition... Please refrain from touching the models. Each group of sculptures tells a triumphant tale of good overcoming evil—a tale I hope we can all benefit from.

My dear guest, please don't be afraid. Come closer... Raise your head, and let me see your face.

->'''Voiced by:''' Chen Haotian (Chinese), Michael Christopher (English)
----
* ArtAttacker: Attacks survivors with jets of wax with the intention of immobilizing or injuring them if he has maximum presence.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Intentionally or not, he ''did'' destroy a lot of people’s lives, but it’s clear that he loves his sister above all else.
* InconsistentSpelling: His official character trailer spells his name as "Philip" while other official sources spell his name as "Philippe".
* MadArtist: He started off life as a [[ObliviouslyEvil misguided]] but relatively sane and esteemed wax artist, but once his sister died he became obsessive with his art and may or may not have created statues by encasing "criminals" in wax.
* MissingMom: The siblings’ mom fell off the top of the building and died one day after going to work. It’s unclear if there was any complications behind her death, though the fact that they were warned to not look into her death or believe any rumors didn’t make it seem like a mere work accident.
* MonsterBrotherCutieSister: Philippe currently has a monstrous appearance befitting a Hunter with purple skin, tattered clothes, and burn scars; whereas his sister is shown through the wax figure as a beautiful young woman with a peaceful and gentle expression.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Likely named after Philippe Curtius, a Swiss physician and wax modeler.
* NoNameGiven: No hint is made of his sister's name in his deductions. [[AvertedTrope Averted]] later as WordOfGod would later reveal it to be Christina.
* ObliviouslyEvil: His trailer and in-character replies from the official Japanese Twitter imply that he started his research for the purpose of stopping criminals before they could even do bad things in the first place and firmly believes he is "destroying evil", even though he was making people be judged despite their assertions of being innocent.
* OnlyOneName: He and his sister's family name is not given in his deductions.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Potentially. Philippe is a practitioner of physiognomy, a pseudoscience that links facial features with criminal behavior. If you pay attention in his trailer he uses a black man to exemplify this. It is unclear, however, if this is a sign that Philippe has racist beliefs or if this is just a coincidence.
* RevengeByProxy: An apparent victim of this. His deductions imply that someone who had been wronged by Philippe murdered Christina in revenge while he was away.

[[quoteright:280:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ann_transparent_7.png]]

When the epidemic disease stroke, disease remained cruel despite Ann’s devotion and generosity. Her only redemption in life would perhaps be the agile footsteps walking towards her ahead of the reaper and the non-human eyes staring at her at the end of the night when she was on the brink of death.

-> '''Voiced by:''' Mu Xueting (Chinese)
----
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Her disease stricken eyes led to her being treated with mistrust and suspicion by the other villagers during the epidemic.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: Or, at the very least, eyes that looked sinister enough that many believed to be the eyes of the Devil.
* CatsAreMagic: Her cats can ignore certain laws of physics and can search for and immobilize Survivors.
* CreateYourOwnVillain: She was blamed for a plague that broke out in the city she lived in, mistreated as a result of this belief, and ultimately killed. Her final deduction heavily implies that, upon obtaining supernatural abilities, [[spoiler: she proceeded to [[{{Revenge}} release another plague on the same city, deliberately targeting those who had abused her]].]]
* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler: Implied to have gone through with one prior to, or possibly after, her death.]]
* IronicName: Her name means "grace" in Hebrew, which was the opposite of what she received after being inflicted by disease.
* LongNeck: She has an abnormally long neck that adds in her inhuman creepiness. It seems to only become like that after she turned into a Hunter.
* LoyalAnimalCompanion: Is followed around by (what appears to be) her pet cat.
* KindheartedCatLover: She used to be a kind nun and loves her cat.
* NunsAreSpooky: Wears the outfit of a nun and is an (apparently) undead hunter.
* OnlyOneName: Her deductions and Character Day letter make no mention of her surname.
* TragicVillain: A seemingly innocent woman whose eyes were altered by a strange disease around the time that a plague broke out in her hometown. This caused people to believe that she was the one who spread the plague, which led to someone piercing a wooden stake through her heart and leaving her to die in the wilderness (and making her fresh pickings for the forces behind Oletus Manor).
* UndeadBarefooter: She goes around barefoot, complementing her ragged attire and undead status.

Even at the height of his fame and addictions, the violinist Antonio did not abandon his unrestrained desire for music. He could see the rhythms of the whole world, which were controlled by ubiquitous strings.

[[spoiler: Inclination: ''A "puppet" being manipulated.'']]
->'''Voiced by:''' Ma Yang (Chinese)
----
* TheAlcoholic: One of his many vices. He's even found [[DrowningMySorrows drowning his sorrows]] during the 2020 Christmas Event.
* AmbiguousSituation: Was his DealWithTheDevil something he did of his own free will?
** For the matter, did he truly make a DealWithTheDevil and become supernaturally gifted? Or did he only gain his in-game power after becoming a Hunter in the Manor?
* DealWithTheDevil: A common theory among the general public on how he became so talented at music.
* DrowningMySorrows: His quote in 2020 Christmas Event indicate this.
-->'''Antonio:''' ... Don't get me wrong--I'm fine with spending Christmas Eve with alcohol.
* GildedCage: His musical talent proved to be so great that it was decided by government officials that Antonio's music should only be performed for and heard by the members of the royal family. In order to ensure that he remained as a symbol of the royal family's alleged superiority, Antonio was confined to the palace and, when attempting to leave, had all but a single string plucked off his violin.
* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: While rumours about Paganini’s apparent Satanic dealings have persisted for decades, there has never been evidence that they were in anyway true. Antonio's backstory implies that, in the universe of the game, said rumours had a degree of truth to them.
* TheHedonist: Was known to frequently gamble and indulge in other vices such as sex and wine.
* MusicalAssassin: He can utilise his demonic power in his attacks by playing his violin.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Named after the father of Niccolo Paganini, a famous and talented violinist (rumoured to have sold his soul to the Devil), who he is quite clearly based on.
** In the early stages of his development he was even named Paganini.
* NoHistoricalFiguresWereHarmed: A fictionalised version of the famous violinist Niccolo Paganini, a musician so skilled he was rumoured to have sold his soul to the Devil for his musical talent.
** Unsurprisingly, Antonio's Character Day is also the real life Paganini's birthday.
* OnlyOneName: His deductions and Character Day letter give no hint to his potential surname.
* PrehensileHair: Which he uses to play the violin.
* SignificantReferenceDate: Like Mary, his Character Day (October 27) takes place on the same day as his real-life inspiration's date of birth.
* SinisterSchnoz: He has a rather prominent nose.
* SlasherSmile: His default expression.
* StringyHairedGhostGirl: Rare male example: he has black, really long hair that covers his face, pale skin and SlasherSmile.
* TragicVillain: A talented violinist, inflicted with a number of physical illnesses and unable to see himself as anything other than a musician. Antonio was made a captive of the royal family and, in his desperation to regain his freedom, somehow ended up under the thrall of an unnamed entity/demon.
* YouAreNumberSix: He is referred to by his [[spoiler: given serial number, 3-1-3]] in his [[spoiler: Experiment File]] and corresponding [[spoiler: Experiment Files]] on survivors and hunters that [[spoiler:made up the group of test subjects that failed to reach the game phase of the experiment during their iteration of Game 3.]]

When she was young, Galatea always thought that she was her creator's masterpiece, that is until destiny played a sick joke on her. But she wasn't distraught. A genius sculptor can sculpt a perfect destiny for her.

-> '''Stage Cast:''' Yagi Mashiro
-> '''Voiced by:''' He Ruofan (Chinese), Creator/HarukaTomatsu (Japanese), Creator/CourtneyLin (English)
----
* AmbiguouslyGay: One of her likes is stated to be "Beautiful, Mature Women", with it being left vague wther this refers to romantic interest or something else. Many players have thus interpreted her as being sapphic.
* BlackEyesOfEvil: She is implied to have manipulated several playable characters into committing horrendous acts and is a hunter who crushes survivors with statues and has completely dark eyes.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: Possibly. Her sculpting abilities increased greatly after taking a commission from a wealthy gentleman but her family soon became concerned when they found out that she was talking to her sculptures.
* TheCorruptible: It's likely she wouldn't have gone down such a dark path if she hadn't become acquainted with Baron [=DeRoss=].
* CuteAndPsycho: She is one of the more conventionally cute Hunters and she also murdered a person to make them into one of her works of art.
* DepravedDwarf: WordOfGod shows she was originally intended as such in her character art. However, it is unknown if this concept carried over, as her character model is actually taller than most female survivors now. It could be she was physically changed like the other Hunters by The Force of Oletus Manor.
* EvilCripple: She hunts Survivors while moving around in her wheelchair.
* HandicappedBadass: She became wheelchair-bound after going after a statue that her father threw off a terrace. Her condition does not make her any less dangerous though.
** Her deductions also imply that, prior to the previously mentioned event, Galatea was inflicted with an unspecified rare illness. It didn't appear to stop her from creating works of art.
* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Heavily implied.
* InTheBlood: Her deductions reveal that she comes from a family of artists.
* LivingStatue: Can create these to pursue Survivors.
* MadArtist: She is a sculptor who is malevolent, obsessive and psychotic. She also seemingly murdered her nurse and had her be put inside one of her sculptures.
* MeaningfulName: Her name means "she who is milk-white" in Greek and she is shown to be very pale.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: She shares a name with a famous statue that is said to have come to life in Myth/GreekMythology.
* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Shares quite a few similarities with Camille Claudel, a French sculptor who spent a large portion of her life confined in an asylum, following her family's decision to have her institutionalised after allegedly witnessing her frequently demonstrate erratic behavior.
* OffscreenTeleportation: Interestingly, any time Galatea has to leave her wheelchair, she'll have it appear exactly where she needs it to be.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Like Geisha, she is able to phase through windows at will, and seems to be able to control objects with her mind. Rather than striking Survivors, she will throw her weapon, and it will come back to her. She also floats unnaturally anytime she climbs a ladder before landing back in her wheelchair.

Like many crazy inventors in the nineteenth century, Percy was obsessed with 'resurrection from the dead' and 'perfect humanity'. He used a corpse to create a monster, and was finally killed by this 'resurrection' monster. He entered the tomb with the secret records and instruments used to make monsters. However, on a stormy night, Percy's tomb was opened and the entire tomb was raided. Soon after, in the depths of the Oletus Manor, following a burst of painful and desperate wailing, a brand new 'perfect human' opened his eyes on Burke's operating table.
----
* {{BFS}}: He uses a claymore to attack Survivors.
* ConnectedAllAlong: Andrew Kreiss's first letter reveals that the bodies used in Percy's initial experiments were provided to him by the Gravekeeper.
* {{Expy}}: Of both [[Literature/{{Frankenstein}} Victor Frankenstein and his Monster.]]
* GeniusBruiser: A MadScientist who is probably only behind Burke intellectually and one of the physically strongest hunters.
* HeadSwap: He has an A-tier skin that transforms him into Zazie from ''Manga/ThePromisedNeverland''.
* MadScientist: To be expected from a Victor Frankenstein {{expy}}.
* NamedAfterSomeoneFamous: Very likely named after Creator/PercyByssheShelley, the husband of the author of Literature/{{Frankenstein}}, Creator/MaryShelley (and who is said to have possessed a few similar characteristics to the protagonist of his wife's famous novel).
