5[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lucas_kane1.jpg]]
6->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DavidGasman
7----
8* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: The Purple Clan resurrects him so he can bring Jade to them.]]
9* BadassBookworm: Lucas is an IT administrator who reads Nietzsche and [[MartialPacifist practices taekwondo]].
10* ComicBookFantasyCasting: Heavily resembles Creator/JudeLaw.
11* DrivenToSuicide: If Lucas’ mental health decreases to "Wrecked" while he is in his apartment, he jumps to his death from the balcony. In one of the earlier chapters, the player can also make him drink alcohol after taking medication. Both outcomes result in a [[NonStandardGameOver game over]].
12* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: [[spoiler:Becomes this after the Purple Clan resurrects him.]]
13* {{Flight}}: Via telekinesis.
14* TheHero: He makes it his goal to prove his innocence and find the person who possessed him that cold January night. As the plot progresses, he finds himself as the last hope of the human race in the face of total destruction by either a secret totalitarian government or a race of sentient artificial lifeforms.
15* MindOverMatter: One of his powers, and the one he makes the most use of.
16* {{Mutants}}: While the game never uses this term to refer to Lucas, it’s basically what he is - [[spoiler:he was mutated by exposure to Chroma energy while in the womb, which gave him his abilities]].
17%%* PrivateEyeMonologue
18* PsychicPowers: {{Telepathy}}, [[MindOverMatter telekinesis]], [[{{Seers}} precognition]], and some form of clairvoyance.
19* SeeingThroughAnothersEyes: Is capable of seeing through the eyes of the Oracle thanks to their PsychicLink.
20* {{Seers}}: One of his powers is precognition.
21* {{Telepathy}}: Lucas is capable of reading minds, though he rarely uses this ability.
22* TookALevelInBadass: As the plot progresses, he becomes faster, stronger, can see into the future, and gains the ability to read minds. [[spoiler: This is because he was irradiated with Chroma while in his mother's womb.]]

25[[folder:Carla Valenti]]
26[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/carla_valenti1.jpg]]
27->'''Voiced by:''' Barbara Scaff
28----
29%%* ByTheBookCop
30* {{Claustrophobia}}: Carla has a paralyzing fear of confined spaces, to the point that walking into the police station basement to collect files is played out as an action sequence.
31* FauxActionGirl: The game tries to present Carla as a tough cookie, with one of the earliest scenes with her being sparring with Tyler. However, later on, she is inexplicably unable to fight off even a single mental patient stumbling around in the dark, among other things. She's also so paralyzed with fear of confined spaces that the game depicts her attempt to walk into the basement of the police station to collect some files as if it was an action sequence, which she can potentially give up on and delegate that task to Tyler. She can possibly shake this status off for a minute in the final sequence, where she can [[spoiler:shoot the Oracle in the back should Lucas fail to defeat him, but she promptly gets incapacitated by the AI Creature a few moments later.]]
32* InspectorJavert: Partnered with Tyler on the restaurant murder case, they gradually close in on Lucas for the murder in the restaurant. While Lucas ''did'' kill the guy, it was while he was under the Oracle's mind control, something the detectives obviously aren't going to believe.
33%%* PrivateEyeMonologue
34* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Tyler's blue.
35* SecondLove: To Lucas.
36* TurnInYourBadge: One of her [[NonStandardGameOver game over]] endings should her mental state drops to "Wrecked" has her quit the force to live with her father.

39[[folder:Tyler Miles]]
40[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tyler_miles1.jpg]]
41->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DavidGasman
42----
43%%* ByTheBookCop
44* InspectorJavert: Partnered with Varla on the restaurant murder case, they gradually close in on Lucas for the murder in the restaurant. While Lucas ''did'' kill the guy, it was while he was under the Oracle's mind control, something the detectives obviously aren't going to believe.
45* MakeUpOrBreakUp: [[spoiler:Tyler's decision to either go with Sam to Florida or stay in New York also determines whether they'll stay together.]]
46%%* PrivateEyeMonologue
47%%* PluckyComicRelief
48* PutOnABus: [[spoiler:The last decision you make as Tyler is whether or not you go with Sam to Florida to escape the cold. If you leave with her, Tyler essentially "walks out of the game." But it is a bit of a MortonsFork really, as Tyler instead just effectively falls victim to the ChuckCunninghamSyndrome if the player tries to have him stay.]]
49* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Carla's red.
50* TurnInYourBadge: Should his mental state drop to "Wrecked," he quits the force to move with Sam to Florida in his game over scene. [[spoiler:He can decide to do this later in the game as well in an attempt to escape the cold with her]].

53!!Antagonists

55[[folder:The Oracle]]
56[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_oracle1.jpg]]
57->'''Voiced by:''' Christian Erickson
58----
59* TheDragon: To [[spoiler:The Orange Clan]], being the one doing their dirty work [[spoiler:in their search for the Indigo Child. The two times you get to see the other members, they're hidden in silhouette.]]
60* EvilSoundsDeep: Speaks with a baritone voice and isn't exactly on the hero's side of things.
61* InTheHood: Is almost never seen without his hood being up.
62* KarmaHoudini: Obviously in the [[TheBadGuyWins Orange Clan ending]], but even in the "best" ending it's unclear what happens to him; he can fall into a pool of Chroma energy or get shot in the back by Carla depending on how the fight goes, which you'd think would be enough to kill him, but in the epilogue Lucas mentions that he and the Orange Clan "went back to their positions of power in the secret governments of the world".
63* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:He works for the Orange Clan.]]
64* NeverMyFault: He chooses to possess someone else to kill his targets because he must never taint himself with their blood.
65%%* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld
66%%* SlasherSmile
67* TheStoic: Whenever he isn't cracking a SlasherSmile, his face is completely neutral and doesn't convey any emotion. The only time this breaks is whenever [[spoiler:Lucas counters his telekinesis.]]
68%%* {{Unperson}}
69%%* YoungerThanTheyLook
70[[/folder]]
71
72[[folder:The AI Creature]]
73->'''Voiced by:''' Doug Rand
74----
75* AIIsACrapshoot: A rogue AI that seeks to exterminate humanity in order to become the dominant lifeform on the planet.
76* TheBadGuyWins: In the [[spoiler:Purple Clan ending, which is unambiguously the worst in the game. The world continues to get colder, 75% of humanity is dead, and the rest are forced to live underground lest they be hunted down.]]
77* DigitalAbomination: It originated on the Internet back in the 1980s, and yet it feels very much like a mystical EldritchAbomination, including the fact that it can use the magical powers of the Indigo Child, and possesses an ability to resurrect humans ([[spoiler:like it did with Lucas]]).
78* ImpersonationGambit: [[spoiler: Impersonates Agatha in order to get Lucas to bring Jade to him.]]
79* OutsideGenreFoe: The game was primarily focusing on the Oracle and the Orange Clan as the main villains, so his appearance definitely came as a surprise.
80* TreacherousAdvisor: [[spoiler: When disguised as Agatha.]]

85[[folder:Captain Jones]]
86[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/captain_jones1.jpg]]
87->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DavidGasman
88----
89* DaChief: To Carla and Tyler.
90* {{Jerkass}}: In the chapter "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Captain Jones is Really Upset]]". Despite multiple eyewitnesses that reported Lucas [[spoiler:using practically supernatural abilities to escape custody (including jumping a 20 foot bridge and onto a moving train)]], he doesn't believe a lick of it and chews out Carla and Tyler for it.
91* ObstructiveBureaucrat: All he does is rant. You even lose psych points by talking to him.
92[[/folder]]
93
94[[folder:Markus Kane]]
95->'''Voiced by:''' Doug Rand
96----
97[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/markus_kane1.jpg]]
98* BigBrotherInstinct: Marcus is older than Lucas, and tries to be supportive and protective. At one point he gives Lucas a crucifix, which is [[GameplayAndStoryIntegration an extra life]].
99* BadassPreacher: He'll bust down a door if Lucas is in danger.
100* ComicBookFantasyCasting: Heavily resembles Creator/WilliamChristopher as [[Series/{{MASH}} Father Mulcahy.]]
101* GuestStarPartyMember: He doesn't get any screens like the other three but you can control him in a couple sequences, when Lucas is dangling from the balcony [[spoiler:and when he's in danger of being killed by the Oracle.]]
102* SkepticNoLonger: [[spoiler: If he survives.]]
103[[/folder]]

105[[folder:Tiffany Harper]]
106[[quoteright:210:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tiffani_harper1.jpg]]
107->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/JodiForrest
108----
109* DamselInDistress: Eventually gets kidnapped by the Oracle and calls Lucas pleading to be saved.
110* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:No matter what, she cannot be saved.]]
111* SatelliteLoveInterest: The only role she has in the game is to potentially hook back up with Lucas [[spoiler: before she gets killed off.]]
112* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead: Averted. Despite her connection to one of the main protagonists, she doesn’t have any significant role in the plot.
