Sean (Zero Escape)

Sean is a character from Zero Escape: Zero Time Dilemma. He is a member of Q-Team, one of the teams in the Decision Game death game. He is presented an young amnesiac child wearing a metal sphere-helmet that hides his face. His teammates are Eric and Mira. 
Sean is mostly known by the intentional misnomer of "Q", as his real identity is a plot twist, with the player being tricked by promotional material and throughout the game that "Q", the leader of Q-Team, refers to Sean. In actual fact, "Q" refers to another character, Delta, who was always hidden from the player, due to being the player's POV. This misdirection is revealed to the player late on the game when Sean accuses Delta of being Zero by pointing at the camera; Eric tells "Sean" to stop yapping as "that old man's name is Q", and the player is made fully aware of Delta's presence for the first time. 
Sean's real identity is that of a robot that was built by Zero, and modelled after a young boy he knew who had died of illness. His helmet is actually his robotic head, and his mind is contained within a quantum computer.
In the true ending, Sean is able to freely walk around thanks to a satellite signal. He declares his resolve to save the world, alongside all the other participants. In the epilogue, Sean seems to still be friends with Eric and Mira, and he visits Mira in jail. Sean breaks her out of jail, so that she can use the transporter to prevent Mira from becoming the Heart Ripper serial killer.
== Personality ==
Sean is a kind and honest boy, who is rather knowledgeable for his age. Due to his amnesia, Sean grew a quick attachment to the other participants in Decision Game. Ironically, Despite being a robot, Sean expresses the most consistent empathy throughout the Decision Game. He gets sad on behalf of others, and seems to care about their struggles and feeling. Like a typical kid, he becomes charmed by the seemingly fairy-tale romance between Mira and Eric.
== Trivia ==
* There are many aspects of the "Q" misdirection that become obvious to the player upon repeat runthroughs:
** None of the characters ever refer to Sean by the name Q, even once.
** The members of Q-Team don't interact with Q that much due to them believing him to be a deaf, dumb, and blind old-wheelchair bound man. Scenes in which Q-Team do interact with Delta are framed to trick the player into thinking they're interacting with someone else. The most notable example of this is when Eric begins talking to an "old guy" who "cannot talk" back to him, while staring directly at the camera. The occasional camera cuts to Gab fool the player into thinking he's talking to the dog.
** Numerous lines of dialogue about Q are uncanny if they are referring to the amnesiac boy. For example, when Junpei expresses anger over Q's execution due to Q not being able to hear or see what was going on.
** The status for Q on the DEAD/ALIVE screen never has their profile picture filled in, even though all the others are.
** When the leaders of each team are announced, their respective leaders are shown on screen. When Q is announced as the Q Team leader, Sean is not shown.
