Line #38 Characters/Harvester


1	!Steve Mason
2	[[quoteright:158:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/steve_harvester_5324.jpg]]
3	[[caption-width-right:158:He always was a kidder.]]
4
5	-->'''Portrayed by''': Kurt Kistler
6
7	An amnesiac young man who finds himself thrust into the bizarre 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.
8
9	* AmnesiacHero: Game begins with Steve waking up with amnesia.
10	* AudienceSurrogate: Like the player, he has no idea who he or anyone else is at the beginning of the game, having a case of amnesia. This makes it easier to place yourself in his shoes.
11	%%* BadassNormal
12	* BreakTheCutie: Is a healthy, sane person at the beginning of the game but Harvest being a screwed up town, his mentality goes along with it, [[spoiler:[[DownerEnding at least in the bad ending.]]]]
13	%%* CarpetOfVirility: ''Very'' hairy.
14	%%* CorruptTheCutie
15	%%* {{Determinator}}: He WILL find out the secret of the lodge, no matter what.
16	* EarnYourHappyEnding: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] in the good ending. [[spoiler: He and Stephanie are trapped in the simulation with no way out and The Harvesters are going to kill them both, but thanks to time passing much slower in simulation, they get married, have a baby, and live as long as they would have on the outside, so at least they live full happy lives together]]. And considering everything Steve is put though, that is worth something.
17	%%* EasyAmnesia: Loses all his memory right from the start of the game.
18	* TheEveryman: Starts out as one - [[FlatCharacter no real personality]] besides wondering what the hell is going on. [[AudienceSurrogate So, like the player.]]
19	%%* EvilLaugh: Let’s one loose [[spoiler: in the bad ending.]]
20	%%* EvilWearsBlack
21	* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Doesn't seem to remember much about TheFifties, despite supposedly having been raised during then. In fact, he seems to remember TV sets being in color and having this thing called a "remote control."
22	* LimitedWardrobe: Wears the same flannel shirt every day and his closet has a whole bunch of the exact same outfit.
23	%%* OnlySaneMan: [[BreakTheCutie At first.]]
24	* PhraseCatcher: "You always were a kidder, Steve!" He even lampshades it at one point.
25	* ProtagonistJourneyToVillain: Subverted [[spoiler: in the good ending.]] Played straight [[spoiler: in the bad ending.]]
26	%%* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:In the good ending.]]
27	%%* SanitySlippage: Due to Harvest's cruel and messed up nature, it's not too surprising.
28	%%* SerialKiller: [[spoiler:In the bad ending.]]
29	* ShirtlessScene: There is an FMV of him taking off his shirt every time he goes to bed each night.
30
31	!Stephanie Pottsdam
32
33	-->'''Portrayed by''': Lisa Cangelosi
34
35	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.]]
36
37	* DeepSouth: Has a slight Southern accent.
38	%%* EveryoneLovesBlondes: When Steve develops feelings for her.
39	* FishOutOfTemporalWater: Shares this with Steve. 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."
40	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She gets really upset at Steve for pulling pranks on the people in Harvester, despite not being on their side.
41	%%* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:In both endings, but she counts as a SacrificialLion in the bad one.]]
42	%%* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:In both endings, but Steve can easily kill her for real in the bad one.]]
43	%%* OnlySaneWoman: [[spoiler:Probably because she's the only other real person besides Steve.]]
44
45	!Steve's Mom
46
47	-->'''Portrayed by''': Mary Allen
48
49	[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Steve's mom.]] Spends most of the game baking huge batches of cookies for the upcoming bake sale, and then throwing them away because it's too far away and they'll go bad.
50
51	* BitchInSheepsClothing: Seems cheerful and nice, but you quickly find out that she's actually pretty terrible. [[spoiler:She sexually assaults Marv regularly, is glad when Mr. Pastorelli accidentally dies, and gets mad at Steve if he saves Karin. If Steve is executed in jail or at the "blood drive," she seems awful happy about it.]]
52	* BondageIsBad: [[spoiler:She keeps her husband locked in a bedroom full of bondage equipment, where she regularly physically and sexually abuses him. If Steve were to accidentally walk in on her, she'll shoot him in the face.]]
53	* ParentalIncest: Will briefly consider it with Steve if you type "[[PrecisionFStrike FUCK]]" into the prompter.
54	* StepfordSmiler: She remains cheerful, even while talking about disturbing things.
55	* YouALLLookFamiliar: Both her and Ms. Pottsdam look almost exactly the same, and are played by the same actress.
56
57	!Marv
58
59	Steve's dad. Has apparently been sick for a week in his room (which Steve can't get into).
60
61	* BandageMummy: [[spoiler: He's been clumsily bandaged up to cover his wounds.]]
62	%%* DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale: [[spoiler:Very, ''very'' subverted (though still simultaneously played for BlackComedy like everything else in the game).]]
63	* ExtremeDoormat: Doesn't seem to enjoy what Steve's Mom does to him, but puts up with it anyway.
64	* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler: He's not sick, but actually serves as proof that Steve's Mom is ''twisted.'']]
65
66	!Hank Mason
67
68	-->'''Portrayed by''': Ben Morgan
69
70	Steve's younger brother. He spends most of his time glued to the TV watching Range Ryder's Cowboy Roundup, an ultraviolent western kid's show.
71
72	%%* BrattyHalfPint
73	* CreepyChild: The more you talk to him, the more apparent it is that something is clearly not right with him.
74	* ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne:
75	--> '''Steve:''' "Shut up you little shit!"
76	--> '''Hank:''' "Mom! Steve called me a bad name!"
77	--> '''Mom:''' "You stop right now, Steve! You know Hank is sensitive about his size!"
78	* LazyBum: He does hardly anything besides sit on his ass and watch TV.
79	* MoralityPet: Inverted. He's among the most disturbing and nastiest citizens of Harvest, but he's one of the only characters that the player can't kill.
80	* SanitySlippage: When the TV station is burnt down, Hank continues to sit and stare at a blank TV.
81	* SkippingSchool: He stays home all week to watch TV. Claims to have the flu, though he's not even bothering with PlayingSick.
82	* TheSociopath: When he hears about Karin's disappearance, he goes over to Edna's house to torment and take advantage of her.
83	* TheStoolPigeon: He threatens to tell on Steve to his mom about any and every perceived slight.
84
85	!Colonel Buster Monroe
86
87	-->'''Portrayed by''': Graham Teschke
88
89	A slightly unhinged WWII veteran who lost his legs and lower body. He's in charge of a military operation in Harvest.
90
91	* BigRedButton: He's got one that launches nuclear missiles strapped to where his lower body used to be, in a perfect position to be accidentally leaned on if he shoots and kills you (and even without that, he's the absolutely last person you'd want with something like that.)
92	* {{Determinator}}: [[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe He got sheared in half during World War II by machinegun fire]], but managed to crawl all the way from Germany to English territories through sheer force of will alone, occasionally stopping to wind his guts back in along the way.
93	* GeneralRipper: At his worst, but he's also a...
94	** ShellShockedVeteran: ...when he's on his best behavior.
95	* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: A non-fatal example.
96	* JerkassHasAPoint: Surprisingly, in regards to the Lodge. He doesn't trust the Lodge in the least, and the only reason he'd want Steve to join the lodge is to infiltrate it.
97	* NukeEm: Talking to him too long results in him shooting Steve and setting off the nuclear missiles.
98	* RedScare: He really ''hates'' him some DirtyCommunists. Implying Steve is one results in an automatic GameOver.
99
100	!Principal Herril
101
102	The principal of Gein Memorial School. He takes pride in preparing the younger generations for the world, but there's something noticeably wrong in how he conducts himself...
103
104	* DirtyOldMan: Do you get the heeby-jeebies when he draws out the words "quality time"? Though it's anybody's guess what he actually ''means'' by that...
105	%%* SadistTeacher: He ''is'' [[spoiler:second in command at the Lodge]], after all.
106	%%* UnusualEuphemism: "'Quality tiiiiime.'"
107
108	!Miss Whaley
109
110	-->'''Portrayed by''': Karen Sexton
111
112	The most notable teacher at Gein Memorial. She doesn't buy into that 'corporal punishment' nonsense... "Spare the rod, spoil the child." A rod's too thin. But a baseball bat...
113
114	* AxCrazy: Disciplining children by hitting them with a baseball bat sounds nothing sort of sane.
115	%%* BatterUp: Her method of administering discipline.
116	* SadistTeacher: She doesn't believe in "Spare the rod, spoil the child." because it's not harsh enough.
117	%%* SlasherSmile: Perhaps one of the scariest things you'll ever see in the game.
118
119	!Sheriff Duane Dwayne
120
121	-->'''Portrayed by''': Nelson Knight
122
123	A sheriff whose badge seems to just be for show. He rarely fights crime, and instead seems to berate his subordinate Loomis.
124
125	* DirtyCop: [[spoiler:He's blackmailing Postmaster Boyle for burning down the Sentinel Newspaper building, and as it turns out he's one of two shareholders of the WHAR TV Station.]]
126	* FauxAffablyEvil: While he appears friendly at first to Steve and might also be sane, he is quickly revealed to be about as crazy as everyone else in Harvest.
127	* JabbaTableManners: To quote a Website/YouTube comment:
128	-->"Yup, that raht thar'z a spahnal cowrd." Award-winning pie-eating noise
129	* PoliceAreUseless: He doesn't do anything to investigate the series of murders, deaths and other crimes occurring throughout Harvest. [[spoiler:If you kill [=McKnight=], you can admit it directly to his face and he'll let you go, since killing [=McKnight=] just means he's now the sole shareholder of the TV Station.]]
130	** None of this immunity bleeds over to Steve without blackmail or his get out of jail free card. Getting caught will get you thrown in jail or worse, and killing a vital character is an instant game over.
131	** [[spoiler:Of course, this all makes sense when its revealed that the only goal of Harvest is to train Steve to be a good serial killer. His incompetence is to ease Steve into a state of security.]]
132	* RepetitiveName: '''D'''uane '''D'''Wayne. both his names also have the same sound.
133	* TheSnackIsMoreInteresting: Played with. He is clearly heartbroken over the deaths of [[spoiler:Edna and Karin]]. It's just that his heartbreak happens to be as big as his appetite for pie as he cries his eyes out next to their hanged bodies while munching away.
134	* UnknownRival: Mr. Johnson secretly despises him due to his friendship with Edna, however the Sheriff himself has not the foggiest idea and isn't romantically interested in her anyway.
135
136	!Deputy Loomis
137
138	-->'''Portrayed by''': Pieter Van Der Vliet
139
140	Doesn't seem too popular with anybody in Harvest. Think of him as the Barney Fife to Dwayne's [[Series/TheAndyGriffithShow Andy Griffith]].
141
142	* ButtMonkey: Takes the butt end of several mean-spirited comments from the locals. And when he gets [[CaughtWithYourPantsDown caught masturbating in a cell...]]
143	* DirtyOldMan: "Sure would be nice to have one'a them girly pi'cher books..."
144	* HenpeckedHusband: To the extreme. His wife ''beats him bloody'' with a broomstick if he's caught with girly mags (or even ''asking'' about girly mags.)
145	* LovableSexManiac: He loves looking at girly mags and gets excited over several women in Harvest, but he's otherwise friendly and doesn't harass other people.
146
147	!Mr. Pottsdam
148
149	-->'''Portrayed by''': Travis Miller
150
151	A rather lazy man who claims to be Stephanie's father. His biggest driving force in life is to join the Lodge so he can have access to all the meat he can eat.
152
153	%%* BaldOfEvil
154	* FatBastard: Very portly and ''definitely'' not a pleasant person to be around. If his rants about red meat and his [[spoiler:peephole into Stephanie's room]] didn't tip you off that he's a creep, his [[spoiler:subsequent kidnapping, molestation, and ''burying'' of Karin will.]]
155	* LargeHam: Appropriately enough '''''MEEEEEAAAAAAAT!'''''
156	* ParentalIncest: [[spoiler:Again, he masturbates to his daughter. Although she isn't really his daughter, seeing as he doesn't actually exist.]]
157	* PervertDad: Doesn't get much worse than [[spoiler: jerking it to his own daughter.]]
158	* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: [[spoiler:He molests Karin.]]
159	%%* RealMenEatMeat: A staunch proponent of this philosophy.
160	* WouldHurtAChild: [[spoiler:He kidnaps the 8-year old Karin, molests her, and [[BuriedAlive buries her alive]]]].
161
162	!Mr. Moynahan
163
164	-->'''Portrayed by''': G.P. Austin
165
166	Harvest's go-to mortician. He also runs a hotel for transients. Strangely, all the transients who wander into Harvest turn up dead long after...
167
168	%%* CreepyMortician: Goes without saying.
169	* SerialKiller: [[spoiler:It's heavily implied that the reason so many homeless people mysteriously drop dead in Harvest is because he's been ''killing them''.]]
170	* SharpDressedMan: Easily has the best fashion sense of anyone in Harvest.
171	%%* WickedCultured: Also rather erudite and calm compared to everyone else.
172
173	!Mr. Johnson
174
175	-->'''Portrayed by''': Robert F. Cawley
176
177	An old gentleman who has an obvious crush on Edna, although calling it a crush is much too innocent.
178
179	%%* AbhorrentAdmirer: To Edna.
180	%%* BerserkButton: Do NOT even think of trying to scratch his Tucker.
181	* CompensatingForSomething: All but confirmed after his Tucker gets scratched. In his rage, he calls himself a "limp-dick fat boy."
182	* DirtyOldMan: "What she really needs is a good, hard penis."
183	* EntitledToHaveYou: Feels this way about Edna to the point where he resents Karin's existence. You find out from Edna that he regularly bothers her.
184	* GreenEyedMonster: He's deeply jealous of Sheriff Dwayne due to his friendship with Edna, whom he irrationally and incorrectly suspects is also lusting after her as much as he is.
185	%%* MidlifeCrisisCar
186	* MeaningfulName: The perennially-horny DirtyOldMan who constantly talks about sex is named Mr. ''Johnson''.
187	* StayInTheKitchen: Thinks that Edna shouldn't be raising Karin by herself that that she needs a man in her life.
188
189	!Tetsua Crumb
190
191	-->'''Portrayed by''': Persis Forster
192
193	AKA The Wasp Woman. A very strange old woman who lives in a run-down house full of wasp nests.
194
195	%%* ForTheEvulz: Wasps apparently operate on this according to her.
196	%%* [[spoiler:HalfHumanHybrid]]: [[spoiler:They weren't kidding when they called her the Wasp Woman.]]
197	%% * InterplayOfSexAndViolence: She actually describes wasp stings in this way.
198	* NightmareFetishist: Again, she ''really'' likes wasps.
199	%%* WickedCultured: Much like Moynahan.
200
201	!Edna Fitzpatrick
202
203	-->'''Portrayed by''': Roxanne Lovseth
204
205	Owner of Edna's Diner (not "DNA's Diner" as everyone likes to call it,) who raises her daughter Karin by herself.
206
207	* BreakTheCutie: When Karin gets kidnapped, and even moreso when [[spoiler:her diner is burnt down.]]
208	* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:After the diner is burnt down, and she takes Karin with her.]]
209	* GoodParents: Seems to genuinely care about Karin, and is worried to pieces until she's found... [[spoiler:Until her diner is burnt down, and she potentially hangs Karin alongside her.]]
210	* OffingTheOffspring: [[spoiler:Hangs Karin along with [[DrivenToSuicide herself]] after you burn down her diner.]]
211	* OnlySaneWoman: Easily the nicest and most reasonable resident of Harvest that's not a main character, alongside Karin.
212
213	!Karin Fitzpatrick
214
215	-->'''Portrayed by''': Rheagan Wallace
216
217	The 8-year old daughter of Edna.
218
219	* BuriedAlive: [[spoiler:By Mr. Pottsdam. It can be fatal if Steve doesn't find her in time]]
220	* TheCutie: She's absolutely adorable!
221	* KillTheCutie: [[spoiler:She either dies from being BuriedAlive or is hung by her mother after the diner burns down]]
222	* OnlySaneWoman: The only normal kid you meet in Harvester.
223
224	!Jimmy James
225
226	-->'''Portrayed by''': Christopher Reagen Ammons
227
228	Harvest's resident paperboy. Since the Sentinel burnt down, he's decided to keep the business going by ''collecting'' people's papers instead, and making damn sure to let them know that they better have a newspaper for him every morning or something... unfortunate might happen.
229
230	* DamageSpongeBoss: He takes a lot of damage for a little kid.
231	* GoshDangitToHeck: Subverted. He uses all kinds of inoffensive 50's sitcom language... until you piss him off, at which point he'll start breaking out actual cuss words.
232	* StreetUrchin: Possibly. He mentions not having parents, but it's unclear if he has a home or not. It's implied that he picks up the papers to keep busy [[spoiler:because he's afraid that the town (or at least Mr. Moynahan) will kill him if he doesn't keep busy.]]
233	* TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: What kind of little kid goes around packing heat and threatening full-grown adults?
234
235	!The Firemen
236
237	A trio of ''extremely'' [[IncrediblyLamePun flaming]] firemen, who spend much of their time painting naked pictures of the same male model in provocative poses over and over.
238
239	* BewareTheSillyOnes: Their CampGay tendencies make them some of the more comedic characters in ''Harvester''. However if you go back to the fire station at night after you've stolen their bolt of cloth (you can't go back during the day), you'll find that [[spoiler:they've killed the male model that they always draw, apparently because they thought he stole it.]]
240	* CampGay: Oh ''hell'' yes.
241	* EpicFail: Somehow they let the Sentinel building burn down when it's right next to the fire station, and is nearby ''three'' fire hydrants.
242	* ItsNotPornItsArt: They're very insistent on this.
243
244	!Range Ryder
245
246	-->'''Portrayed by''': Charlie Latch
247
248	The host of Range Ryder's Cowboy Roundup, a very violent kid's show that just seems to consist of him killing Indigenous people in violent and gory ways.
249
250	* BadBadActing: He's got a game show announcer voice that he ''never'' breaks out of, even when he's got his foot stuck in a Native's torso.
251	* DepravedKidsShowHost: He brutally slaughters Indigenous people in the [[BloodyMurder bloodiest way possible]], and regularly curses a lot.
252	* FamilyUnfriendlyViolence: The show is full of graphic violence and (like many old westerns) racism against Native Americans, but what is seen and heard of it, it looks just like any cheesy kid's show, with bright colors and goofy music and sound effects.
253	* GoodScarsEvilScars: After the TV station burns down, he's covered in horrible burn scars.
254	* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He's the star of a kid's show that consists of Native American genocide, and he doubles down on it when met face-to-face.
255	* ARealManIsAKiller: Is very much a proponent of graphic violence and murder, especially of Indigenous people.
256	* TheSavageIndian: Ryder paints them all like this. Even the real life ones.
257	* ShutUpKirk: If Steve calls him out on how violent his show is, he counters that the US was ''built'' on violence, and wouldn't be where it is today without the mass slaughter of Native Americans.
258	* TheTapeKnewYouWouldSayThat: He seems to get at least some of his responses to Steve's questions off of cue cards, which even include Steve's name on them.
259
260	!Mr. [=McKnight=]
261
262	-->'''Portrayed by''': Lee Jacobson
263
264	The executive who owns WHAR, the TV station hosting Range Ryder's Cowboy Roundup
265
266	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He's suspiciously similar to Creator/DonaldTrump.
267
268	!Mrs. Phelps
269
270	-->'''Portrayed by''': Doris [=McClellan=]
271
272	The woman who runs the general store.
273
274	* TheStoolPigeon: She rats on Loomis to his wife whenever Loomis tries to buy girlie mags from the store.
275
276	!Mr. Pastorelli
277
278	-->'''Portrayed by''': Colonel Mason
279
280	The owner of the barbershop.
281
282	* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:Pastorelli is electrocuted to death off-screen after his barber pole is stolen when the loose wires landed in a puddle of water that just happened to be where he was standing when he turns the power back on.]]
283	* TheQuietOne: It helps that he doesn't speak English. In-game files indicate that he ''was'' originally supposed to speak, as he has portraits like the rest of the characters. His speaking parts were cut from the game to avoid spoiling key plot points for any Italian-speaking players.
284
285	!Pete Swell
286
287	-->'''Portrayed by''': Richard Raski
288
289	Former aluminum siding salesman. Since the bottom dropped out on the aluminum market in Harvest, he's since switched to being the town plumber.
290
291	* MiniatureSeniorCitizens: He's ''tiny''.
292
293	!Clem Parson
294
295	A farmer who hangs out with Pete. Apparently hunts aliens in his spare time.
296
297	%%* CropCircles: Apparently gets a lot of these in his fields.
298	* DeepSouth: He looks and talks like a stereotypical southern hick.
299	%%* EgomaniacHunter: Of ''aliens.''
300
301	!Pat O'Reilly
302
303	-->'''Portrayed by''': Zeb Cash Lane
304
305	A worker at the Mason's Meat Plant.
306
307	* MysteryMeat: A lot of the meat's apparently gotten from cats.
308
309	!The Sergeant-At-Arms
310
311	-->'''Portrayed by''': R. Kevin Obregon
312
313	The face of The Lodge, who gives Steve his daily tasks in order to become a member.
314
315	%%* BeardOfEvil
316	%%* BlackCloak
317	* BigBad: The closest thing the game has to one. [[spoiler:Of course, he's serving the Harvesters that programmed him.]]
318	%%* TheDragon: [[spoiler:Technically the Dragon to the Harvesters.]]
319	* EvilSoundsDeep: He communicates through telepathy, but sounds like [[WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget Dr. Claw.]]
320	* EvilSoundsRaspy: His voice is heavily distorted.
321	%%* InTheHood
322	* LackOfEmpathy: Doesn't seem to particularity care about the residents of Harvest.
323	* MissionControl: He's the one giving Steve his missions.
324	* PetTheDog: He didn't have to [[spoiler:give Steve and Stephanie the option to have a relatively normal life and marriage in the simulation]], but the fact that he did makes him better than [[spoiler:the Harvesters who programmed him]].
325	%%* SlasherSmile: [[spoiler:After Steve takes the bad ending.]]
326	%%* TheStoic
327	* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Everyone in Harvest sure does want to join the Lodge after all.
328	* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Delivers this to [[spoiler:Steve, if he chooses not to kill Stephanie.]]
329
330	![[spoiler:The Harvesters]]
331
332	[[spoiler:The true villains of Harvester, who designed Harvest as a VR simulation for making serial killers.]]
333
334	* ColdBloodedTorture: [[spoiler:Mainly to Stephanie, but also to Steve to an extent.]]
335	* ForTheEvulz: There is no indication they are trying to pursue any kind of agenda through [[spoiler:creating serial killers]].
336	* HumanSacrifice: [[spoiler:They require one in order to create a serial killer, where the subject kills a real person, thus requiring them to kidnap both Steve and Stephanie; Stephanie is only there to be the final sacrifice into turning Steve evil.]]
337	* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler: The closest thing they get to a comeuppance is if Steve decides to not kill Stephanie. They'll deem the VR simulation a failure, but they still get away with what they did, and will keep on trying to make serial killers.]]
338	* {{Mad Scientist}}: [[spoiler: They're behind a program to churn out {{Serial Killer}}s]].
339	* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler: They're the reason for everything in the game.]]
340	* MonsterProgenitor: Doesn't get much worse than [[spoiler: manufacturing Serial Killers ''en masse'']].
341	* WalkingSpoiler: Knowing about them spoils the whole twist.
342
343	![[spoiler:Steve's Real Mom]]
344
345	* [[GoodParents Good Parent]]: [[spoiler:She obviously criticizes the game Steve plays because she's worried about its bad influence on him.]]
346	* MoralGuardians: [[spoiler:Criticizes Steve for playing ''Harvester'' at the end of the game, saying it will make him violent.]]
347	* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler: The fact that Steve's mom ''isn't'' an abusive, potentially incestuous murderous rapist clues the player in that ''Harvester'' is a game ''in universe too''.]]
348
349	!Mother (Mystery of Motherly Love)
350	[[quoteright:195:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/harvest_0052.png]]
351	-->'''Portrayed by''': Roxanne Lovseth
