Incidental Characters

The world of Beyond: Two Souls is filled with characters, both major and incidental. The characters below are considering incidental characters, having made minor appearances throughout the game's narrative.

## Lt. J. Sherman

Lt. J. Sherman is a law enforcement officer who attempts to interview Jodie Holmes after finding her on the street. He features prominently in the E3 reveal trailer. After he unsuccesfully attempts to sway Jodie to speak with him, offering her help and understanding, his office is swarmed by a S.W.A.T. contingent in hot pursuit. After opening the door upon silent orders by the officer in charge, the S.W.A.T. team lines up on the door, preparing to enter. The scene then cuts to Nathan Dawkins entering the station, finding it destroyed, with all but Sherman dead. Sherman stands in the center of the room, clearly in shock.

### Trivia

* Lt. J. Sherman is voiced by David Gasman, alos the voices for Kay'l 669 in Omikron: The Nomad Soul and the voices of David and Lukas Kane in earlier Quantic Dream game Farenheit (known state-side as Indigo Prophecy). Additionally, he provided the voice and motion capture for Paco from Heavy Rain in addition to the voices of Hassan and Mad Jack.

## Stan

Stan is a homeless man who befriends Jodie after finding her blacked out on the icy pavement. He is part of a group of homeless, composed of Tuesday, Walter, and Jimmy. After Jodie helps him gather food at a local supermarket and defends him from a group of attacking Hoodlum Youth, he and Jodie become quick friends. After Jodie helps in the birth of Tuesday's baby, Stan and the rest of the homeless are attacked by the hoodlums once more, with Jodie ending up in the hospital due to the attack.

## Jimmy

Jimmy is one of the homeless group's newer members, and apparently suffers from a deep-seated drug problem. Though he is initially met with some distrust because of this problem, he has proven himself trustworthy to his comrades, and is instrumental in finding and preparing the apartment building in which Tuesday gives birth.

### Trivia

* Jimmy is voiced by Eric Winter
* It is postulated that Jimmy is addicted to heroin, primarily due to his penchant for gripping at his forearms, his lack of meth use symptoms, and his somewhat easy-going nature.

## Walter

Walter is one of the homeless that takes in Jodie after she is found by Stan. A functioning alcoholic, Walter seems to be the most embittered by his experience, claiming that he is has been assaulted for most of his time on the street.

### Trivia

* Walter is the most vocal and expressive of the homeless group, often uttering quips and responses to the changing situation.

## Hoodlum Youth

The hoodlum youth are a gang of youth that attack the homeless whilst their leader films their interactions. They first appear outside the supermarket, harassing Stan, but they seem to have been a long-term problem for the group, as Walter claims to have been a victim of their activities once before. After being beat up by Jodie, they stalk the homeless crew, ultimately setting fire to the apartment where Tuesday's baby is born and beating Jodie almost to death.

### Trivia

* The hoodlum youth seem to be modeled after the modern "Jackass" and "Bumfights" generation, in which many youth abuse the homeless as a form of "trolling".
