Category:Symbolic Characters

These characters represent an entirely larger concept than themselves. Examples are Pyramid Head from the Silent Hill video game franchise representing James Sunderland's repressed guilt and anger over murdering his wife and The Keeper from The Evil Within being born from a combination of Ruvik's memory of the safe where he kept his research, and his unbridled rage. The safe head represents the atrocities of Ruvik's past that he's trying to keep hidden, literally crushing anyone who comes near.
