* IHaveAFamily: Emily gets saved from the shotgun after she tells William that she has children who can't live without her.

* ShootTheShaggyDog: Despite learning his lesson and passing all his tests, [[spoiler:he dies one of the most violent and painful deaths in the series]].

The first victim of William's trial, introduced in a trap with William known as the Oxygen Crusher. While hardly anything is known about him, he has gained great notoriety in the fandom for being tested because he ''smokes'' despite a history of health issues.

** [[spoiler:His death could very much be considered this. After going through a series of demanding traps, which leads to him realizing the error of his ways and the value of the lives of the clients he had indirectly killed by denying coverage, William gets killed by the son of one of said rejected clients, ultimately making his redemption completely meaningless.]]

* FacialHorror: After going through the Knife Chair Trap, his face is caked in blood.

The remaining family of Harold Abbott, an ill man who William Easton coldly turned down health insurance for, leading to his death. Hoffman kidnapped them and left them in a cage adjacent to Pamela's with a timer counting down. John had no intention to test them, but instead wanted them to be left there for an opportunity to take revenge on William if he makes it through to the end of his trial.

* MonsterBrotherCutieSister: Implied to Hoffman's monster brother. Though her screentime is limited, the articles posted about her death imply she was the kinder of the two of them. [[SerialKiller Hoffman needs no explanation...]]

* CradleOfLoneliness: The flashbacks of her death briefly show Hoffman cradling the hand of her corpse, and no one willing to pull him away.

* MoralityPet: Seems to be this for Hoffman, as after she died, all hinges on him went loose.

[[folder:Pamela Jenkins]]
!!Pamela Jenkins
[[quoteright:319:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pamelatrapped.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:319:''"If you'd like to make a statement on the record, I'd be more than happy to take it."'']]

->'''Played by:''' Samantha Lemole\\

The sister of William Easton and supporting protagonist of ''Saw VI.'' Pamela is an investigative journalist known for her sensationalist headlines. Her obsession with the Jigsaw case drew the ire of John Kramer when she wrote a book about him. Jigsaw kidnaps Pamela as an incentive for William to go through the game he set up for him.

* AllThereInTheManual: WordOfGod claims that Pamela is [[BreakTheCutie relatively]] fine after the events of the movie. She was planned to make a cameo in the survivor meetup in ''3D'', but she didn't make it into the film.
* BigNo: When [[spoiler:Brent decides to execute William]].
* BreakTheCutie: It doesn't get much worse than [[spoiler: seeing your sibling dissolved by acid in front of your own eyes.]]
* DamselInDistress: She is kept in a cage for most of the running time of ''Saw VI.''
* MotorMouth: Befitting her sensationalist nature, she's very chatty and has little sense of personal space, which draws the ire of Jill and Hoffman.
* SpannerInTheWorks: Her obsession with Jigsaw leads her to [[spoiler:find the letter Hoffman used to blackmail Amanda]]. While Jill denies knowledge of it when Pamela pesters her over it, she's actually furious enough over it to later [[spoiler:sabotage Hoffman's game]], making Hoffman go completely mad and have his identity ousted to the public when Jill seeks police protection in ''3D''.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tara&brent_iipng.png]]

->'''Played by:''' Creator/DevonBostick (Brent), Shauna [=MacDonald=] (Tara)\\

The remaining family of Harold Abbott, an ill man who William Easton coldly turned down health insurance for, leading to his death. For whatever reason, Jigsaw kidnapped Harold's family and left them in a cage adjacent to Pamela's with a timer counting down. [[spoiler: In reality, John Kramer had no intention to harm either Brent or Tara, but instead left them there for an opportunity to take revenge on William if he makes it through to the end of his test.]]

* RevengeBeforeReason: [[spoiler:Tara subverts this. She strongly considers killing William but ultimately can't bring herself to do it and forgives him. Brent on the other hand...]]
* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: Brent knowingly [[spoiler:sentences a man to die by being dissolved in acid.]] To be fair, he is horrified immediately after this.
* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: [[spoiler:Brent kills William. But instead of gaining any satisfaction from it, he and his mother are horrified at his death and likely got PTSD for life.]]
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: They don't appear in the survivor meeting in ''Saw 3D'', but like with Pamela, WordOfGod says that this is due to Devon Bostick and Shauna [=MacDonald=] being too busy to reprise their roles.

[[folder:Hank]]
!!Hank
[[quoteright:320:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hank_in_umbrella_health.jpg]]

->'''Played by:''' Gerry Mendicino\\

The first victim of William's trial, introduced in a trap with William known as the Oxygen Crusher. While hardly anything is known about him, he has gained great notoriety in the fandom for being tested because he ''smokes'' despite a history of health issues.

* DisproportionateRetribution: While chain-smoking despite a history of health issues can be seen to be in line with John's philosophy of punishing people inconsiderate of their lives, that is still an ''absurdly'' petty reason to put someone in a death trap. Worse yet, Hank was merely a janitor for William's company and not complicit in his corrupt work at all.
* NoFullNameGiven: His surname is never stated.
* UnwinnableByDesign: The Oxygen Crusher consists of two contraptions consisted of two big metal clamps aiming at the victims' bodies from the sides. Once the game began, a highly sensitive pump measured their breathing activity. Each time one of them took a breath, the clamps would close in and eventually crush their body. Once someone dies, the trap would deactivate with the second victim free to go. However, due to Hank's smoking habits and health issues, there is legitimately no way he could ''ever'' win against William even if the latter intentionally tried to lose. Due to the expansive nature of William's trial, it seems Jigsaw was even aware of this and never expected Hank to win.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: One of the most underdeveloped victims in the series. We know his occupation and the ludicrous reason John tests him, but nothing more.

[[folder:Allen and Addy]]
!!Allen and Addy
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hanging_trap.jpg]]

->'''Played by:''' Shawn Ahmed (Allen), Janelle Hutchison (Addy)\\

A pair of victims in William's trial, introduced after he wins his game against Hank. Their game is fairly simple, [[SadisticChoice with William merely choosing which one will be hanged]] and the other free to go.

* DisproportionateRetribution: On both counts. Addy is notable for having done ''absolutely nothing wrong'' and enjoying her life. While she worked for William, she merely scheduled his appointments and was not complicit in his work. Allen himself simply maintained William's files and documents, having no role in denying people insurance like his other workers.
* LonersAreFreaks: Allen has no friends or family, and therefore no one to miss him if he dies unlike Addy. This is a fact Jigsaw uses to tip sympathy in Addy's favor.
* NoFullNameGiven: Neither of them have stated surnames.
* WhatTheHellHero: Allen angrily calls William out when he realizes he chose Addy's life over his.
* WhiteShirtOfDeath: Allen is always seen wearing a white shirt, and is hanged bloodily in the Gallows.

[[folder:Debbie]]
!!Debbie
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/debbietrap2.jpg]]

->'''Played by:''' Caroline Cave\\
'''Appearances:''' ''Film/SawVI''

The victim in William's third test. Debbie was Umbrella Insurance's legal counsel and defended William's corrupt policies by taking action towards anyone who tried to take legal proceedings against him, like the Abbott family.

* AmoralAttorney: Debbie fiercely fought back against anyone that threatened William or his company's policies.
* AssholeVictim: Of all the victims with a connection to Easton, she was the most complicit in William's corrupt practices. Debbie also tried to viciously kill William, which while she can't necessarily be blamed for, makes her slightly more antagonistic than the rest.
* BoomHeadshot: As she fails to kill William in time, the device attached to her chest launches a metal rod directly at her head, killing her instantly.
* CallBack: Her game, where she must kill William to remove a key from his stomach in order to take off a device that will kill her, is a direct callback to Amanda's test in the first film.
* FanDisservice: The steam causes her blouse to stick to her body rather tightly, but this is never focused on by the camera, and she dies in a rather gruesome manner before the scene can become true fanservice material.
* TheFarmerAndTheViper: Despite William helping her through the first half of her game, the steam maze, she immediately tries to kill him upon meeting him. Justified as the key to her survival was in William's stomach, and given William's apprehension of being cut open, Debbie has no choice but to kill him.
* NoFullNameGiven: Her surname is never stated.

!!Shotgun Carousel Victims (Aaron, Emily, Gena, Dave, Shelby, Josh)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sawvi02_5.jpg]]

'''Appearances:''' ''Film/SawVI'' | ''Film/Saw3D'' (Emily and Shelby only)

A group of insurance analysts who used to work for William in finding errors in policies to potentially deny people health insurance. To survive, they have to rely on the help of William. Standing on a pedestal outside the enclosure was a room with two buttons inside. Every time the carousel came to a standstill, William has to simply press both buttons simultaneously in order to save the victim in front of the shotgun. In return, the shotgun would go into an upright position and shoot above the other person's head without harming them, before returning to its original position. However, [[SadisticChoice only two people could be saved while the other four inevitably had to die]].

The main character of ''Saw VI''. He's a senior vice president at the local health insurance company Umbrella Health, and is in charge of, among other things, allowing or denying claims (he's the head of the company's department for membership and claims). One of his customers was John; William personally denied coverage for an experimental treatment for his cancer, which was probably not a good idea.
