- Ted Rhodes from Shattered State.
- Danny from Man of Medan.
- The passerby from the same game.
- Nathan Merwin from House of Ashes.
- Despite his Western name and accent, his face appears to be of East Asian descent, which would be out of place in the time and setting of the Little Hope witch trials.
