Officer Daniel Ward

Officer Daniel Ward is the player character and a serving patrol officer responding alone to a late-night welfare check.

Ward begins the incident calm, observant and professional. As the situation becomes increasingly unnatural, his fear should become noticeable without overwhelming his police training. He is not an action hero—his dialogue should feel like genuine police radio communication and natural conversation.

Some of Ward’s dialogue is repeated and imitated by the entity through telephones, radios and bodycam recordings. The actor may therefore be asked to perform unsettling variations of certain lines.

Voice age: approximately 25–40. General American accent preferred. Approximately 20–35 lines. A clean microphone and the ability to provide unedited WAV recordings are required.
