* CameBackStrong / CameBackWrong: If at least two counselors are dead (or escaped), and someone has radioed Tommy for help, one of the spectating players is randomly selected to [[AutoRevive come back as the hero]]. There is a terrible obvious LogicalWeakness to this though. The player who died straight-away maybe [[TheLoad very unlucky or unskilled]], and will [[TheCavalryArrivesLate fare no better second time round]] even as the MasterOfAll. The Jason player will also be very suspect of any skilled counselor ''[[XanatosGambit that wants to get murdered]]'' as they've no doubt equipped [[HighlySpecificCounterplay situational Perks]] that compliment [[TheAce Tommy only]]. It's not uncommon for the killer to just [[CruelMercy maim and injury]] that counselor, then focus their attention on the weakest players.

-->'''Voiced by''': Jennifer Ann Burton
For tropes from the films see [[Characters/FridayThe13th here]].

----
* AxCrazy: She's the one chanting in Jason's ear to murder those poor counselors.
* BerserkButton: Not putting Jason as your top priority counts as pressing this. And ''do not'' mention Jason's deformities.
* EvilLaugh: Does this in all match outros.
* GenerationXerox: The tapes reveal Pamela Voorhees and Dr. Jarvis had a long, hostile discussion over Jason's death. Little did they know their children would become archenemies decades later.
* GreaterScopeVillain: Like her role in the films, she is the reason that Jason kills people.
* {{Irony}}: Though she was still somewhat hostile in the tapes, the only person Pam seemed to trust or attempt to be civil to after her son's alleged drowning was none other than Dr. Jarvis, the father of her son's future arch-enemy.
* MamaBear: Dear God.
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: It's ambiguous if her spirit is actually talking to Jason or if he's just hearing her in his head. There's evidence for both.
* MissionControl: For Jason. Maybe.
* PosthumousCharacter: Is dead, her decapitated head in Jason's shack.
* PreemptiveDeclaration: "This camp now has a death curse! Don't you ever forget that." Guess what Pamela and Jason do to Camp Crystal Lake in the coming years.
* SanitySlippage: Pretty much what the Pamela Tapes are supposed to show.
* SirSwearsALot: When the cops piss her off, Pamela drops a PrecisionFStrike on them in the tapes.
* TragicVillain: Oh God, this poor woman. Her entire life is one unforgiving TraumaCongaLine.
* TraumaCongaLine: Her entire life. First, she's viciously raped by an anonymous man as a teenager. Then she gives birth to a mute hydrocephalic. Then she marries a strong man for protection, who instead beats her and Jason relentlessly. Then her son is bullied to death thanks to the negligence of the counselors.
* UnstoppableRage: Pretty accurate way to describe her interactions with the police in the tapes.
* TheVoice: Only appears as a voice in Jason's head and as her decapitated head in Jason's lair. [[WhatCouldHaveBeen She]] ''[[WhatCouldHaveBeen could]]'' [[WhatCouldHaveBeen have been playable but the stretch goal wasn't reached]].

[[folder:Tommy Jarvis]]
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tj2.png]]
-->'''Voiced by''': Thom Matthews

For tropes from the films see [[Characters/FridayThe13th here]].

Once a counselor has used the CB Radio to call Tommy and at least two counselors have either died or escaped, one of them will respawn as Tommy.

!Stats
* Composure: 10/10
* Luck: 10/10
* Repair: 10/10
* Speed: 10/10
* Stamina: 10/10
* Stealth: 10/10
* Strength: 10/10
!Starts off with:
* A one-shot shotgun.
* A pocket knife.
* A first aid spray.
* A walkie-talkie.
* A map.
----
* TheAce: Highest stats of everyone who isn't Jason and starts with a hunting shotgun. [[spoiler: He's also the only character who can kill Jason after a series of steps are taken.]]
* AutoRevive: He essentially acts like this; a player can control him if they called him on the radio before dying.
* BackForTheDead: Tommy can be killed by Jason, but like many things, it's dependent on how well the players do.
* BadassNormal: [[spoiler: He's a normal human who, with the right conditions, can '''KILL JASON''']].
* BigDamnHeroes: His primary role arriving on the scene to put an end to Jason's rampage and save the remaining counselors. This can be [[ShootTheShaggyDog very easily subverted]].
* TheBusCameBack: Tommy Jarvis of ''The Final Chapter'', ''A New Beginning'', and ''Jason Lives'', is a playable character. He's unique in that he acts as an 'extra life' when called in, as an already dead player becomes him.
* DownerEnding: The Jarvis Tapes reveal that [[spoiler:after the events of Part VI, authorities and his psychiatrists have fully given up on trying to help him, seeking to either drug or restrain him to a padded room. He flees and tries to find others who could help clear his name, but is eventually captured and institutionalized in [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Springwood.]] Worse, it's heavily implied that he's now being attacked by a LawyerFriendlyCameo of Freddy Krueger in his sleep, worsening his mental state even more and possibly inspiring the events of ''Freddy vs. Jason''.]]
* EleventhHourRanger: If one of the counselors succeeds in calling in help over a CB radio, Tommy Jarvis will arrive, controlled by one of the players who either escaped or died beforehand.
* ExperiencedProtagonist: He's the closest the franchise has to a recurring protagonist.
* GenerationXerox: The tapes reveal Pamela Voorhees and Dr. Jarvis had a long, hostile discussion over Jason's death. Little did they know their children would become arch-enemies decades later.
* GoodCounterpart: Once again, he is one to Jason. Tommy is a BadassNormal; Jason has superpowers due to his undead state. Tommy will only kill evil people; Jason will kill almost anybody. Tommy is a TragicHero; Jason is a TragicVillain.
* OnlyICanKillHim: [[spoiler:Tommy is the only character capable of landing the killing blow on Jason, though he can't do so alone as he needs at least one female counselor to stun him with Pamela's sweater first.]]
* RoleReprisal: Thom Matthews is voicing Tommy, which he portrayed in ''Part VI: Jason Lives''.
* HeroicSacrifice: If Tommy is killed within range of another counselor, the Tommy player will get "Sacrifice" XP.
* SanitySlippage: The tapes reveal that [[spoiler: by the end of ''Jason Lives'', Tommy has become completely paranoid, believing "they" are conspiring against him to keep Jason under wraps (to a degree, he's right; a police officer expresses a belief that, like Roy Burns, Jason himself is merely a copycat, and Tommy's continuing ranting attracts more of them). The last tape reveals that by the modern day, he's almost completely divorced from reality.]]

[[folder: Rob Dier]]
[[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/victim.jpg]]

The First Victim. Rob's movie counterpart is the brother of Sandra Dier who has come to Crystal Lake to kill Jason in revenge. He is always killed in the opening cutscene to scatter the player characters.
-----

* BackForTheDead: Only exists to be murdered by Jason in a variety of ways to cause the other campers to flee.
* TheCameo: Is a character from Part 4 who had a major role.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Suffers a couple of these like being dragged down underwater and drowned. Usually, he's just killed with an ax blow.
* {{Irony}}: Rob's movie counterpart is actively seeking Jason as part of a RoaringRampageOfRevenge. [[spoiler: Like in ''Part 4'', Rob completely fails at this task and is the only Counselor who ''can't'' play a role in killing or even slowing down Jason.]]
* SacrificialLamb: Rob Dier is the person Jason murders at the beginning of every game and clues the other counselors to beat it.
* YouKilledMyFather: Unmentioned in the game but his sister Sandra was murdered by Jason.
