I think for me it's likely Sarajevo

she's full of darkness and deals with it by hitting da bricks constantly rather than improving as a person

pandora

easily pandora

that woman is nothing but problems and repression and hidden emotions all the way down

i played cima garahau for a hot second and she's a close second

not quite as many complex, hidden feelings as pandora, but being tricked into complicity with a genocide and her baggage from that is her entire motivation for all of 0083 rebellion

Season 1 Jaika

ohhhhh that's tricky

thinks about my own pandora
hm.

I wanna say David Animorphs? but at the canon point I play him he might be better at facing it.
Cassie Animorphs, now...

while Anzu is taking Reimu's plot role, and Reimu would basically completely no-sell Silent Hill

there's just so much there and she only ever comes to a partial peace with any of it, and doesn't address her manipulative tendencies at all

Anzu would have a way worse time

due to her whole unifying backstory trauma of "a person who was so ignored by the rest of the world that she passed into fantasy"

ruadh probably.

Duncan. Easily. his entire character concept is being a "the end justifies the means" kind of guy on a slow descent from normal to the extreme end of that scale

Silent Hill would have SO much to throw at him

if we count characters I played once for the bit, though:

fucking

Arthas

i mean he killed and resurrected a friend just to show him what hell was like to prove to him that death is not a release from suffering

Duncan would have a REAL bad time in Silent Hill

Wait I played Batman

He'd come through it alright, eventually

But he'd have to fucking go through the wringer

out of my muses I think the one who'd have the "easiest" time is Need because she knows herself quite well and has flexibility when it counts
and then possibly Alloran because he's had nothing to do for almost twenty five years but wrestle with himself and comes out trying to do better

Tomie, easily would have the worst time

Audrey because damn that backstory

Renne 100% her backstory is fucked to a degree that I'm honestly shocked made it into a Trails game

either that or she is completely ignored by a loophole where she technically counts as a construct meant to teach a lesson thanks to being from a deleted bad timeline so the monsters see her as one of them

on the other hand that would also give her an existential crisis anyways

(The real question is how far into it does Bruce get before he accepts that this isn't the Scarecrow?)

my joke answer for best time in silent hill is eile
she's simply going to pay her way through

Booster Gold

know who would have a REAL bad time in Silent Hill?

Cloud Strife

oh extremely

which of these silent hills is the farthest from the "shit gets rusty all doors locked" aesthetic?

I'm happy that f went so all in with the red growths. the classic look is classic for a reason but there can be more, etc

bonus for a character I made a journal for but never actually played: Natsuhi Ushiromiya

OOF

way too many, Harlock would make it through but he would suffer, Soma would have a similar experience to Heather

...minus the pseudo pregnancy

Georik Zaberisk would go through so much and end up yeeting himself straight to a bad end

Eden, both in terms of having a worse Silent Hill but also being extremely ill-suited to surviving it

she's like six inches tall

also I haven't made an account for her yet but I'm imagining Noelle Deltarune and, hm,

don't like that

oh that'd be a BAD one

RIGHT???

Castti's got material. I do wonder how the scary nurses would fit into it

Setsuna's is a lot

Setsuna gets a fresh silent hill aesthetic

Silent Hill like "I've never gotten to really work with giant robots before"

yeah

instead of a rusted ironscape it's war-blasted ruins

...

Avarna Kern

I dunno what the fuck that would look like but my god

I'm imagining giant silent hill flesh monsters modeled after

That woman has neuroses we don't have names for

the spiders

Spiders and Monkeys and sometimes you can't tell which are which

oooooh kern's

and ants and computers and cryogenic suspension

and being forcibly merged with an alien machine intelligence

I'm glad you got to it before me but yeah of my characters Cloud would have it worst in Silent Hill and it's not even REMOTELY close

Eleanor probably wouldn't have a great time but I think she could handle it

Cloud's whole personality is fake

Cloud is operating on like at least two to four levels of Not Dealing With It at any given time and only like maybe one of those he's even passingly aware of

my man's a dissociative matryoshka doll

Salvezra

His depressed ass is not making it out of Silent Hill

There are so many issues he's not dealing with in campaign because there are worse issues

Honestly I have a hard time imagining ANY of the Curse Eater squad making it out of Silent Hill

I think Ancelin and Sabra have the BEST chance

but Sal, Eirich and Tramp are all various levels of fucked

I don't think Agatha would either. She would burn it down but not in a way conductive to making it out alive

Yeah there's no way Agatha makes it out either

Her whole schtick was being caustic and cynic as a defense mechanism

akane shinjo. no question.

honestly

would silent hill even be that different for akane than the setting of ssssg

"a world hand-crafted to torture her psychologically" YEAH? FOR AKANE?

Probably more teasing her with exactly what she wants

Just Lucy with the football but instead Silent Hill keeps showing her the possibility of human connection and unconditional love and pulls it away at the last second

...oh God, I have a journal for No Eyes.

The dream boss from Hollow Knight.

TBH. YOU'RE NOT WRONG.........
