The well known medical professionals of Silent Hill.
Necessary to sustain life in organic creatures, the crimson fluid known as blood tends to make appearances when the body's structure is compromised in some way, a very, very common occurrence in videogames.
A boss fight is a culminating challenge that pits the player against one or more enemies representing a greater threat and/or difficulty than those previously faced. These scenarios typically feature unique antagonists.
To elude, escape, or get away from. Some games require players to escape from some people or things to perform some objective or avoid death.
The counterpart to 'faceless hero'. Sometimes the 'faceless evil' doesn't appear at all, but when it does, the player doesn't get a look at its face.
Henchmen are the loyal grunts caught in between the player and the main antagonist. Without them every game would be nothing more than a boss battle.
Horror games influenced predominantly by the look, feel, and themes of Japanese horror cinema, or non-horror games that allude to the cultural horror aesthetic. J-Horror, or psychological horror, is sometimes classified as a sub-genre of survival horror.
Games that feature an antagonist--someone who opposes the game's protagonist--that is a man.
Murder is the act of ending the life of another living thing against its will without the sanction of a higher governmental authority, such as the casualties that result from acts of war. It is generally intentional, at least in a legal meaning, but not necessarily.
The Otherworld is the darker-side dimensional world in the Silent Hill game series.
The existence of a parallel world which can be traveled to and from, and may contain differences of varying degrees from its counterpart. Often, this concept consists of a Dark and Light World through which the player alternates.
Enemies that are adamant in their will to hunt you down. Example: Pac-Man ghosts.
Sexual behaviour that deviates from the norms of society.
The act of forcing someone to engage in sexual activity against her or his will. Generally considered one of the worst things one human being can do to another.
An intimate physical activity between two or more individuals.
Male characters who are depicted in an overtly sexual manner.
The act of taking one's own life.
A malevolent character whose goals are evil in nature. While villains are commonly featured as antagonists, not all antagonists are necessarily villains.
