History Characters / ThePath

* IJustWantToBeLoved: Eventually revealed to be Carmen's biggest wish.

* {{Foil}}: To Ruby. She's the idealist to Ruby's cynist, she wants to fix the hurt in the world while Ruby relishes in it, and Rose thinks life is beautiful, while Ruby thinks it's corrupt and ugly.

* GamerChick: Ginger's livejournal profile picture is from {{Ico}}, and she mentions that she didn't care about the shady party thrown in their house, because she was given videogames.

* GamerChick: Ginger's livejournal profile picture is from {{Ivo}}, and she mentions that she didn't care about the shady party thrown in their house, because she was given videogames.

* MultipleReferencePun: Her name is a shade of red like her sisters, but it's also a reference to the tale of Snow White and Rose Red, as well as being a pun on 'Rose Coloured Glasses'.

* AmbiguouslyRelated: [[spoiler:Two examples of this, The Girl in Red Wolf, a "corrupted" version of herself, presenting as an EvilTwin, and the Woodsman Wolf, a man sharing the same skin tone, hair colour, eye colour, boots, and the same living space.]]

* EtherealWhiteDress: The Girl in White is the only character in the game depicted in white, [[spoiler:and considering the fact her job is to rescue the sisters from their "deaths"]] it isn't a big leap to reach what the colour white represents for her.

* CharacterBlog: [[https://innocentred.livejournal.com/ Her livejournal Innocentred.]]

* BoyishShortHair: Ginger has a short bob, reminiscent of Natalie Portman's in Taxi Driver

* ProfanityPolice: Her first livejournal opens with her asking no one to

* CharacterBlog: Her livejournal, Kid Red 13.[[https://kidred13.livejournal.com/]]

Robin, also known as Kid Red, is 9 years old and the youngest of the sisters. She's a very lively child who loves playing on the path. She has a love for wolves.

* TheAntiGrinch: Despite her exterior, Ruby is a big lover of Christmas, shown in her livejournal posts.

* TheDutifulSon: Takes the role of looking after her sisters and grandmother for her mother who is never around. [[spoiler: She secretly resents this fate, wishing she had been able to persue her passion of music.]]

* TheAntiNihilist: She's overly aware that the world is cruel and meaningless, but she find joy in the little things and encourages the sisters to do the same.

The Werewolf, [[spoiler:Robin's]] wolf, a towering beast that takes up home in the graveyard.

* AngryGuardDog: The Werewolf is calm and minds his own business most of the time, but don't dare walk into his graveyard, or worse, his own personal space. [[spoiler:Poor Robin learned that the hard way.]]
* AnimalisticAbomination: He posseses a monsterous face with big teeth and giant ears, on a fat human torse with nipples, and incredibly long fingers. [[spoiler:Robin still finds him adorable however.]]

* ChildEater: [[spoiler:Shown in Robin's final flashes.]]

* WouldHurtAChild: [[spoiler:Self explanatory.]]

The Cloud Wolf, [[spoiler:Rose's]] wolf, a majestic creature, found floating alone in the Misty Lake.

The Girl in Red Wolf, [[spoiler:Ginger's]] wolf, a lively 13 year old girl that can be found playing in the flower field.

* AmbiguouslyRelated: [[spoiler:The Girl in Red is very literally just a red version of The Girl in White. Though they're not seen together, The Girl in Red and the Woodsman wolf can be connected as being related through the Girl in White, if they are indeed related.]]
* AWolfInSheepsClothing: An extreme version of this. She's a wolf who takes the form of the harmless Girl in White to lure in [[spoiler:Ginger]].

* ButterflyOfTransformation: The Girl in Red is always accompanied by butterflies, usually after teleporting. Cute right? [[spoiler:Well, those butterflies are there to represent Ginger's transformation from childhood to adulthood through puberty.]]
* CreepyChild: She looks a bit cute on the surface, but after a while you notice she twitches rapidly, can teleport and [[spoiler:has a fascination with rough play, specifically that involving barbed wire.]]
* CuteIsEvil: A little girl in a red dress with GirlishPigtails, surrounded by butterflies and flowers. [[spoiler:This facade covers the fact she's a sadistic child who enjoys hurting her playmates.]]
* DaddysLittleVillain: [[spoiler: This to the Woodsman Wolf, though she is a lot less cruel to her victim.]]
* EvilTwin: This to the Girl in White

* FriendlyEnemy: [[spoiler: This with Ginger. They play together often, hugging and spinning around, but is all too ready to trap Ginger in barbed wire and leave her to suffer.]]
* GrowingUpSucks: [[spoiler:Just like Ginger, she doesn't want to grow up, and is ready to take fatal measures to make sure Ginger also doesn't grow up.]]
* PuppyLove: [[spoiler: Can easily be seen as this with Ginger, though in a fatal way.]]

The Charming Wolf, [[spoiler:Ruby's]] wolf, is a young man who can be seen smoking in the AbandonedPlayground.

* CarpetRolledCorpse: [[spoiler:The first look you get of The Charming Wolf is him dragging a suspiciously shaped carpet into the playground before dumping it. Considering the appearance of this carpet in the dangerous Woodsman Wolf's shed, and the dug up grave next to the Werewolf, you don't need to stretch your imagination to guess what's inside. What's worse, is that it very well could be ''Ruby'' he's dragging after their car accident.]]
* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: An incredibly Charming and handsome man, but is ok with [[spoiler:getting a 15 year old girl into drugs, smoking and a car accident that left her disabled.]]

The Woodsman Wolf, [[spoiler:Carmen's]] wolf, is a woodcutter entirely focused on cutting down the same tree in the Campsite.

* AmbiguouslyRelated: [[spoiler:The Girl in White has a little tent next to his in his area, and with their similar appearances and shared boots, it's not hard to guess that she's his daughter or other relative. If the Girl in White and Girl in Red are indeed twins, The Woodsman would also be related to her.]]
* AWolfInSheepsClothing: Some players may be relieved to see that the Woodsman is in the forest, as he was the hero of the original story, even more so when they realise that The Girl in White trusts him. [[spoiler:But that all goes down the drain when you realise that he's all too willing to take advantage of a drunk, underage Carmen in front of his (potential) daughter.]]

* CorruptedCharacterCopy: The Woodsman in the original tale was the hero that saved Little Red and her Grandmother from the wolf. [[spoiler:In the Path ''he's'' the wolf.]]
* DirtyOldMan: [[spoiler:Has no qualms with taking advantage of a drunk 17 year old girl in the forest.]]
* EyeObscuringHat: When you first get into the Campsite, his baseball cap is obscuring his eyes, though when you remove it you can see them clearly. [[spoiler:What's really unnerving is that in the final flashes at the end of Carmen's route, you can see him head on with the cap not covering his eyes, ''but his eyes are completely gone'']].
* OpportunisticBastard: [[spoiler:Pays no attention to Carmen until he realises she's intoxicated and alone. Then he's ready to load her up on more drinks and assault her.]]
* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: [[spoiler:While every other wolf appears somewhat frightening, The Woodsman seems to just be a middle aged man doing his job... Until you get to Grandmothers house, that is.]]

The Fey Wolf, [[spoiler:Scarlet's]] wolf, presents as a lone musician walking around the Ruined Theatre.

* AbsurdlySharpClaws: [[spoiler:Though not seen in the wolf encounter, Scarlet's final flashes show him with extremely large claws with string emerging, using it to puppeteer Scarlet's body.]]
* AmbiguousGender: With it's long hair and gender neutral clothing, it's extremely hard to tell if The Fey Wolf is a man of ethereal beauty, or an old woman. [[spoiler: Though WordOfGod says that there is only one female wolf, The Girl in Red, so it can be seen as either male, or a genderless creature.]]

* MentalMonster: The true identity of all of the wolves, but the most extreme with the Fey Wolf [[spoiler:who's a mix of the musician dream Scarlet never got to have, a manipulating puppeter that turns people into living dolls like her mother did with her, and most dramatically, posesing rope that Scarlet used to hang herself.]]

'''Due to their existance as {{WalkingSpoiler}}s all spoilers for the Wolves are unmarked'''!

'''Careful!''' You're heading into the forest, straight into heavy spoiler territory!

* TheBigBadWolf: All of the wolves fall into this category, but he is the most obvious, considering he is big, bad, and a wolf.

* BeAWhoreToGetYourMan: [[spoiler:Subverted. Her belief that she needs sex to be loved leaves her vulnerable to her wolf]]

* AwLookTheyReallyDoLoveEachOther: This with Carmen. Ruby mentions hating when people take off their shirt in Summer, with Carmen says she enjoys it. Ruby says that it's ok when Carmen does it because she's pretty, and Carmen remarks that it's the nicest thing she's ever said to her.

* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: This with all her sisters, most notcible with Carmen and Rose.

* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: Robin is ''10'' years younger than her eldest sister Scarlet.

* PracticallyDifferentGenerations: This with her younger sister Robin. She is ''10'' years older than Robin.
