Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is deep in story and character development. Below is a sample of the diverse characters players experience through the journey.

Alexandra Roivas - Student, 2000 AD, Rhode Island
A headstrong and independent spirit, Alexandra intends to further the field of numbers theory through her uncanny intellect. She is the type of woman who will never quit, and generally succeeds in her goals through sheer determination. A very intelligent and creative woman, Alexandra's only weakness, perhaps, is her confidence, which often lands her in situations that, although she can handle, are probably in her best interests to leave alone.

Pious Augustus - Roman Centurion, 26 BC Persia
A nobleman conscripted into the army of the Roman Empire, Pious is a Centurion, a commander during the Empire's campaigns in Persia. He is in his mid to late twenties, and is in good health, with features shaped by the grim horror of the wars he has fought. The conquest has taken its toll on him, and although still a loyal soldier, the novelty of his profession is beginning to wear tiresome. He believes there is more to his life than being a soldier.

Ellia - Dancer of the Court of Suryavarman II, 1152 AD Cambodia
Ellia was born into servitude during the 12th century in the dank jungles of Cambodia. As part Khmer working class, she was destined to be a dancing/slave girl in the City Temple that had been built to honor the Hindu gods. Now a teenager in the employ of the Priesthood of the Temple, she witnesses things she is not meant to. Discovering this, she desperately wants no part of it and attempts to escape.
