History Characters / Harvester

* [[spoiler:SerialKiller: In the bad ending.]]

* TheEveryman: Starts out as one -- [[FlatCharacter no real personality]] besides wondering what the hell is going on. [[AudienceSurrogate So like the player.]]

* MoralEventHorizon: Can pass it at any point in the game once the player obtains a weapon. [[spoiler: Also, he can kill Stephanie in order to become an IRL serial killer.]]

* CrazyAwesome: Without a doubt! You automatically become a badass once you travel from Germany to England without your lower half.

* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Gives off this kind of vibe. Her choice in sentence structure and slang indicates she's from the 90's -- which is when this game was released -- yet, everyone else in Harvest sounds like they came from the early 50's -- which is when the game "takes place."

! Officer Loomis

! Sheriff Dwayne Dwayne

-->"I'd say she died of natural causes. *Award-winning pie-eating noise*"

* EverybodyLovesBlondes: When Steve develops feelings for her.

* ADateWithRosyPalms: A part of the game revolves around fetching Loomis some spank material.
* ButtMonkey: Takes the butt end of several mean-spirited comments from the locals. And when he gets [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown caught masturbating in a cell...]]

! Steve

An amnesiac young boy who finds himself thrust into the bizzare situation of needing to gain entry into the town's lodge before the big blood drive. Unfortunately, the means of gaining membership are not at all reasonable. Or morally sound for that matter.

! Stephanie

Possibly the only other half-sane person in the entire town. She and Steve become pretty close over the course of the game. [[spoiler: Which makes the ending even sadder.]]

A slightly unhinged WWII veteran who lost his legs and lower body and had to crawl over miles of land to safety while stopping every once in a while to roll his intestines back in.

! Stepanie

A slightly unhinged WWII veteran who lost his legs and lower body and have to crawl over miles of land to safety while stopping every once in a while to roll his intestines back in.

An amnesiac young boy who finds himself thrust into the bizzare situation of needing to gain entry into the town's lodge before the big blood drive. Unfortunately, the means of gaining membership are not at all reasonable. Or sane for that matter.

Strange, unsociable, and sometimes downright unlikeable, she doesn't have many friends. She tries, bless her. At times she's very protective of the few things she has. She's prone to not thinking things through, even though she can be smart when given time to mull things over.
