History Characters / YearWalk

* TheGhost: Never appears and only recieves brief mention in the game.

* UncannyValley: Their faces are quite similar to the forest sprites from ''Anime/PrincessMononoke'', and they make an awful squishing and squirming sound as you move them around.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: And how!

* UndeadChild

* FeatheredFiend: Just look at it... That thing is the very embodiment of the expression "feathered fiend".

* [[spoiler:VideoGameCrueltyPotential: You have to destroy the heart under its robe to complete your Year Walk and see the vision of the future that was promised to you. [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor Although you probably won't like the outcome of what you see.]]]]

* EnthrallingSiren: She is mentioned to lure her victims deep into the forest with her song, and the easiest way to find her is by ear.

* InfantImmortality: Their very existence means that this trope is [[AvertedTrope averted.]]

* WouldHurtAChild: [[spoiler:Also manages to avert InfantImmortality while she does so. She's the "angel maker" who took the four babies, that would later become the Mylings, from their mothers and drowned them.]]

* UncannyValley: Their faces are quite similar to the forest sprites from ''Film/PrincessMononoke'', and they make an awful squishing and squirming sound as you move them around.

* [[spoiler:TheHeroDies: The secret ending reveals that he was executed a year later for killing Stina. Whether or not Theodor convinced him to kill himself and SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong so that Stina could live in the secret ending is completely up in the air.]]

* [[spoiler:BackForTheDead: She only appears in the flesh once after her initial appearance, and it's as a bleeding corpse.]]
* [[spoiler:DefiantToTheEnd: If you believe that the words uttered as you are unraveling the vision that shows her death were made by her right before or ''as'' she was being stabbed to death, then she fits this to a tee.]]

* [[spoiler:DrivenToSuicide: Between being executed and killing herself, she chose the latter.]]

* [[spoiler:KarmicDeath: She was set to be executed for her heinous baby-murdering ways, and by the same executioner who did in Daniel for killing Stina, who had interacted with the products of her handiwork, but committed suicide in her cell before the time of her execution came.]]
* [[spoiler:KickTheDog: Her biggest sin was taking the four Myling babies from their mothers (along with what little money they had) on the promise of giving them a good home. She pocketed the cash and promptly drowned the babies, making this a ShootTheDog moment as well.]]
* [[spoiler:WouldHurtAChild: Also manages to avert InfantImmortality while she does so. She's the "angel maker" who took the four babies, that would later become the Mylings, from their mothers and drowned them.]]

* [[spoiler:SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: His intent in sending the knife back to Daniel after unraveling the code of the box is that Daniel kill himself with it, thereby satiating the Watchers while letting Stina live a normal life.]]
* [[spoiler:StableTimeLoop: Created one through his use of the box; by finding the box in the forest, he was able to figure out its code and leave a knife in it for Daniel in the past, thereby ensuring that it would be there over 200 years later for him to find. Whether or not he created one by sending the knife back to Daniel so he had a weapon with which he could kill Stina, thereby giving Theodor the impetus to send the knife back in time with the intent that Daniel kill himself with it is pure speculation.]]

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: All of them seem to simultaneously want to help and prevent people from completing the Year Walk and seeing the future, [[spoiler:which may be the result of Year Walking being akin to AGlitchInTheMatrix that they are trying to compensate for]], which may explain why they simultaneously help [[labelnote:spoiler]]the Brook Horse giving you the key[[/labelnote]] and hinder [[labelnote:spoiler]]followed by the Night Raven stealing it away[[/labelnote]] your progress. The Huldra is explicitly stated to not operate on rules humans can understand in the companion app.

* [[spoiler:JumpScare: Easily the most memorable one in the game, considering it is a massive BaitAndSwitch after her generally peaceful demeanor.]]

* {{Troll}}: [[spoiler:She initially appears to give you the key to the church gate (which was no small feat to get considering her obtuse puzzle and following JumpScare), but it melts as soon as you touch it.]] It's a clue for where you can find [[spoiler:the real key]], but still...

* PaintingTheMedium: Two of them have to be found by using unconventional gameplay. [[spoiler:One requires you to flip your phone/tablet upside down to reveal it, and another seemingly hides offscreen where you cannot reach it but requires you to forcefully drag the screen over with two alternating fingers to finally get it to come out.]]
