List of Dead Rising characters
The video game series features characters of Dead Rising, Dead Rising 2, and Dead Rising 3. Developed by Capcom and designed by Keiji Inafune, who designed Mega Man.
Main characters
Frank West
Voiced by Terence J. Rotolo
The protagonist of Dead Rising. He's a freelance photographer and photojournalist. He's also a big man with a lantern jaw and a no-nonsense attitude, and all he's interested in is the biggest scoop of his career. He is a relatively well-known freelance journalist who has covered many world events, wars, and other big stories. Lately, however, his career has begun to fizzle out. Looking for the next big scoop, he stumbles on to some strange events happening in the small town of Willamette, Colorado. His personality is such that he would rather visit dangerous places to satisfy his desire for adventure than out of any sense of journalist curiosity. A loose cannon who doesn't like working for, or with, others, Frank's research style, articles and photos are all unregulated and sold to the highest bidder. While he's not the most polished and professional person in his field, he is strong, genuinely kind and decent, and always operates on instinct. Not your typical journalist, Frank is quite capable of handling himself in combat and is very keen to help other survivors to safety. During his time at Willamette, he earned the trust and friendship of Brad Garrison, Jessica McCarney, Otis Washington, and Isabela Keyes.
Chuck Greene
- Voiced by Peter Flemming
The protagonist of Dead Rising 2. He is a former motocross champion who arrives at Fortune City, Nevada, to take part in Terror Is Reality, a controversial sports entertainment game show where contestants kill zombies. Chuck needs the prize money to buy Zombrex (a daily medication that suppresses the zombification process) for his daughter Katey, who was bitten by her zombified mother during a previous outbreak in Las Vegas. During the outbreak of the show's supply of zombies, Chuck rescues Katey and makes his way to an emergency shelter, which is sealed after their arrival. Ray Sullivan (the only security guard to reach the shelter alive) is initially reluctant to let Chuck and Katey in, but Chuck promises to keep her supplied with Zombrex until the military arrives in three days. He was then framed as a member of CURE for releasing the zombies and sets out to clear his name with the help of CURE leader, Stacy Forsythe. He is also an extremely resourceful mechanic, able to repair and construct anything he can imagine.
It was revealed that some point after Case West Chuck found Katey and Stacey. He had a relationship with Stacey, but it didn't end well and Katey never forgave him for it. He kept her as an unregistered infected person and did anything he could to find Zombrex (things he admits he is not proud of). 8 years after Fortune City, Katey ran away, causing Chuck to go on a frantic search for her.
In Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, a re-imagining of Dead Rising 2 with Frank as the protagonist. Chuck reappears as a Psychopath, and has taken on shabby, long hair and a deeper 5 o'clock shadow. Chuck has descended into insanity after losing Katey during the outbreak. Evidence of this is the doll strapped to the back of Chuck (which resembles Katey, and who Chuck delusively thinks it to be) and a discarded kid's backpack in the Green Room of the Arena. When Frank offers to take him to the Safe House, he accidentally grabs the doll's leg, enraging Chuck to murderous intent at the photojournalist. Frank obtains the Combo Bay Key upon Chuck's defeat, but Chuck himself disappears. Chuck is also available for co-op mode.
10 years after the events of the second game, Chuck reappears again in Dead Rising 3. 2 years prior to the game, Chuck had been suffering from stress after constantly having to look for more Zombrex for Katey. Chuck chose a life of crime and became a major mob boss, using his status as a way to gain access to Zombrex. Katey decided to run away, believing herself as a burden towards her father after seeing Chuck becoming stressed from all the work he had been doing. Chuck began to ruthlessly search for his daughter after her disappearance, recruiting an associate named Gary to help in the search.
Two years later, after being informed of Katey's whereabouts, Chuck heads to Los Perdidos, only to find the city in a middle of a zombie outbreak. Days later, Chuck, with the help of Gary, finds Katey, only to see her kissing a mechanic and using her middle name as an identity.
Nick Ramos
Voiced by Andrew Lawrence
The protagonist of Dead Rising 3. Nick is a mechanic who works for Wrench O' Rama in the city of Los Perdidos. He is an orphan, and many details of his life remain a mystery. He has a tattoo of the number 12 on his neck and travels with Rhonda and Dick throughout the city. During the beginning of the game, Nick is seen as a scared and naive young man. He has excellent mechanical skills, but has difficulties formulating plans and acting under pressure.
As the story progresses, Nick is revealed to be known as "patient zero", the only orphan that Carlito infected who is in fact immune to the virus, which contains within him the cure for the zombification.
Nick is also develops a romantic interest in Annie and at the ending of the game the two begin a relationship. Annie's identity was revealed to be Katey Greene as he met her father, Chuck Greene.
Dead Rising major characters
Isabela Keyes
- Voiced by Kim Mai Guest (Dead Rising), Venus Terzo (Dead Rising 2: Case West), Veronica Diaz (Dead Rising 3)
Isabela Keyes is the main antagonist of the entire Dead Rising series and the younger sister of Carlito. Very little is known about her, but she worked at Dr. Barnaby's laboratories in Santa Cabeza as a medical technician. It may be implied that she and Carlito are the true causes of the zombie outbreak, just so they can get back at Brock Mason for destroying their hometown of Santa Cabeza. She initially works against Frank and the others, but later chooses to aid them in stopping her brother, though her reasons for doing so might be so she can lead the zombie swarm against Mason herself. When the zombies overrun the mall and army soldiers, Isabela brought Frank to Carlito's hideout where he is now infected, and tells him she can create a symptomatic treatment for Frank using "Queens", though it may be to sustain him long enough so she can use him to exact her revenge on Mason. The two escape the mall through a tunnel guarded by the military, using the zombies as a distraction, and stole a jeep, until they are prevented by Brock Mason in his tank. Luckily, he dies and Isabela bids Frank farewell, feeling content that her evil revenge plan was a huge success.
Isabela reappeared again in Dead Rising 2: Case West, where she teams up with Marian Mallon to found the Phenotrans corporation and run it together, setting all the events of Dead Rising 2 and Off the Record into effect. The two develop many symptomatic "Queens" shots, which they renamed "Zombrex", while making it appear that Marian has Isabela as a prisoner forced into hard labor. She contacted Frank in order for him to "help" her "escape" along with a flash drive containing a copy of the "Zombrex" formula, just to contact Marian's Phenotrans agents to "recapture" her and destroy the flash drive before either Frank or Chuck could reach her.
Isabela reappeared again in Dead Rising 3, in which she appears to be trapped inside a lab for years until she is finally "freed" when a zombie outbreak spreads to Los Perdidos. She manages to "escape" and is searching for a missing element to the "Zombrex" cure, a blood sample from "patient zero", which reveals to be Nick Ramos. Isabela revealed to have worked with Marian Mallon back in the events of Case West, so they can purposely start the outbreak in Los Perdidos as she intends to hunt down Nick to complete the "Zombrex" cure, and use this as an opportunity to wipe out the entire zombie race that she and Carlito have unleashed upon the world, and become a hero so she can finally clear her family's cursed name. After the deaths of both Marian and Hemlock, Isabela destroys the video footage containing the conversation between Isabela and Marian revealing Isabela's evil plan and proudly leaves the laboratory.
Carlito Keyes
- Voiced by Alex Fernandez
Carlito is the older brother of Isabela Keyes, as well as the main antagonist for most of the game. He and his sister are two of the few survivors of the Santa Cabeza Incident. Knowing the truth about what happened to their family and fellow villagers, Carlito has vowed to use the very zombie race that he and Isabela tricked Dr. Barnaby into creating, just so he can use them to destroy Brock Mason for causing his heartbreak, not knowing that his own sister is planning to get rid of him, just so she can exact revenge on Mason herself. His hatred spurns on acts of terrorism, which are carried out by his desire for revenge. His will, desire and strength are to be reckoned with. As the events in the mall unfold, it becomes clear that Carlito is a deranged individual who must be stopped before his zombie army spreads throughout the entire country.
Brad Garrison
- Voiced by T. J. Storm
An agent working for the DHS. Brad is a gruff, no nonsense and by the-book player, who reluctantly fights alongside Frank West throughout the story. He shares similar personality traits with Frank. They may have ended up being good friends—if they had met under different circumstances. However, under duress, he always falls back on the company line and treats everyone he first meets as a potential threat that is not to be trusted. Muscular, in great shape, and possessing superior athletic abilities from years of military training, Brad uses his intuition and expertise in his field to always stay cool and calm under extreme pressure. While tracking Carlito Keyes in the underground tunnels as Frank searches for the bombs, Brad is injured badly and locked out, separated from Carlito and surrounded by a large number of zombies. Frank later finds the mortally wounded agent, slowly succumbing to the zombie infection and pleading to Frank to not tell Jessie, before he finally turns.
Jessica "Jessie" McCarney
- Voiced by Laura Napoli
Brad's rookie partner of the DHS, she is assigned with Brad Garrison to the Willamette incident to find Dr. Barnaby and escort him out of the mall. She is charged with watching the monitors for information on the people responsible for the outbreak. Like Brad, she is initially distrustful of Frank, and patronizes him for being a civilian, but this cool attitude fades after Frank proves himself, notable by saving Brad's life. After Frank brought Dr. Russell Barnaby, a geneticist, to the safe house while Isabela was there, Jessie was bitten by him. Later in the game when the Military arrives, she has already changed into a zombie.
Dead Rising 2 major characters
Katey Ann Greene
- Voiced by Allyson Armstrong (Dead Rising 2), Shelby Young (Dead Rising 3)
The daughter of former motocross champion Chuck Greene. Katey was bitten and infected by her zombified mother, which is the reason Chuck entered the Terror is Reality show for the money to buy Zombrex to prevent her from turning into a zombie. In Dead Rising 2, she is seen playing the Capcom game Megaman. In Case Zero she is four years old, in Dead Rising 2 she is seven years old.
In Dead Rising 2: Off the Record she is implied to have either been killed or zombified, thus driving her father into insanity. During Frank's encounter with Chuck, the former motocross star has taped a doll to his back and treats her as if she was the real Katey.
In Dead Rising 3 Katey is seen again 10 years later, now as a teenager and goes by her middle name "Annie", but is still infected and still requires Zombrex. Before the event of the game, Katey met Nick after she saved him while escaping from a horde of Zombies and was later seen in a Diner along with Dick, Rhonda, and two unidentified survivors. She's been labeled as an "Illegal", a person that is infected that hasn't been implanted with a microchip to be located and given Zombrex to prevent turning. She travels with her ex-boyfriend Red, who leads a group of illegals throughout the city. Katey left her father two years before the events of the game feeling that she's become a burden to him due to the pressure of keeping her unregistered and finding Zombrex.
Katey later develops an interest in Nick and near the end of the game begins a relationship with him, and is reunited with her father.
Rebecca Chang
- Voiced by Benita Ha
A beautiful, ambitious Asian-American news reporter from "Channel 6 Action News" is seen in Fortune City to cover the controversy surrounding "Terror Is Reality". When the zombies overtake the city, she sees it as her big chance to uncover what's behind the outbreak and get her hands on the scoop of the century. She is fame-hungry, but she is also extremely courageous and confident, oblivious to the danger. She was the one who reported the alleged involvement of the Fortune City outbreak by Chuck Greene. After Chuck revealed that Phenotrans was the one behind the outbreak and attempts to call for help from the newscast to pick up her and the survivors, Rebecca was shot in the head and killed by Raymond Sullivan, who was on the payroll of Phenotrans. In Case West, Frank mentions to Chuck that she was originally going to investigate the Phenotrans Facility with him.
In Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, Rebecca does not know Frank directly, but mentions that she was once a fan of his. When the evidence proves that Phenotrans is behind the outbreak, both Raymond and Rebecca are shot by Stacey, who is a Phenotrans agent. In Overtime Mode, Rebecca is revealed to be alive but injured and held captive by TK. After beating TK and throwing him over the edge, Frank carries an injured Rebecca out of the arena.
Raymond Sullivan
- Voiced by Phil Hayes
Raymond Sullivan is the security officer in charge of the Fortune City Emergency Shelter, and is responsible for making sure that nobody who is infected gets inside the shelter. He initially prevents Chuck Greene and his daughter, Katey, from entering the shelter when he sees the bite scar on Katey's arm, but Chuck manages to convince him to let them in by showing him a box of Zombrex, which is later revealed to be empty. Sullivan also does not believe Chuck's claim of innocence about causing the outbreak, but agrees to allow Chuck and Katey to stay in the shelter as long as Chuck continues to save survivors and provide Katey with Zombrex. If Chuck doesn't prove his innocence by the time the military gets to Fortune City, Sullivan will not protect Chuck from being arrested.
When Chuck and Rebecca Chang learn that Phenotrans, the company which produces Zombrex, is responsible for the outbreak and is planning to make contact by a Satellite Phone, Sullivan shoots her in the head, killing her instantly. He then reveals that not only has he been working on behalf of Phenotrans, but he was also a subordinate to Tyrone King, as well as the one who planted the bomb at the arena and caused the outbreak in the first place under TK's orders. He then takes Rebecca's satellite phone and leaves Chuck and the others to die in the military's impending firebombing of the city. When Chuck confronts him and condemns Phenotrans for its greed, Sullivan mocks Chuck for his short sightedness. Zombrex is a variation of Isabela Keyes' zombie suppressant, which was made from Wasp Queens - and they remain an essential component of Zombrex. The only way to gather sufficient queens for the mass production of Zombrex is by harvesting them from zombies. Phenotrans had been running low on queens since the Las Vegas incident - and as numerous VIPs such as doctors, engineers and major political figures are infected and therefore dependent on Zombrex, further outbreaks are "absolutely necessary" to ensure a steady supply of queens. This statement causes Chuck to realize that the Las Vegas outbreak, the subsequent death of his wife, and Katey's infection, was also caused by Phenotrans, and attacks Sullivan in pure rage.
After Chuck wears Sullivan down, the AC-130 fires an explosive round, temporarily disabling him. Sullivan uses the opportunity to activate his skyhook, boasting that he and Phenotrans are the "good guys" - just as Chuck handcuffs the waist of his harness to a railing. The AC-130 then snags the skyhook, tearing him in half.
In Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, Sullivan largely plays the same role in running the safe house and is initially distrusting of Frank on account of his own infection. A major difference in Sullivan's role is that his original position as the Phenotrans plant has been recast to Stacey, who shoots him dead after she is exposed as the spy.
Stacey Forsythe
- Voiced by Robyn Ross
The head of the controversial zombie rights group CURE (Citizens for Undead Rights and Equality). Stacey believes that the Terror Is Reality show is cruel and demeaning to infected survivors everywhere, and leads protests with the aim of getting it taken off the air, and making Zombrex available and affordable for all. She is an ally to Chuck Greene, offering to protect Chuck's daughter while he seeks out Rebecca Chang to clear his name. She watches the monitors in the Shelter like Jessie in the first game, taking on a role similar to Otis, telling Chuck the locations of survivors throughout the city.
She mentions to Chuck that she had a sister, who was infected with the zombie disease and had to take Zombrex everyday like Katey. However, due to the constant usage of the drug and the stress it put on her, she decided to let herself turn. This may be why Stacey became such a passionate and prominent member of CURE.
When Stacey brings a sleeping Katey to the helicopter with Chuck, Katey's bag, containing her mother's possessions, is accidentally dropped by the elevator. When Chuck goes to grab it, he is ambushed by the zombiefied TK and several other zombies. He throws the bag to Stacey, and tells her to take care of Katey as he is dragged into the elevator.
In Dead Rising 3, it was revealed that there was a relationship between Chuck and Stacey, but that it didn't end well and Katey never forgave him for it.
In Dead Rising 2: Off the Record, Stacey is in Fortune City with other protesters displaying opposition to the "Terror is Reality" event. After the outbreak, she successfully escapes into the Safe House. Frank and Stacey later watch a news broadcast in which Rebecca Chang shows security camera footage of a CURE member placing a bomb, previously given to him by TK onto one of the zombie security pens. CURE is instantly blamed for the entire fiasco, and Stacey's picture is shown during the broadcast. Frank accuses Stacey of causing the outbreak, but Stacey denies this and claims that TK must have planted him inside to do his dirty work.
Frank believes Stacey and heads out to find the truth, traveling to the Fortune City Hotel to find Rebecca. When Rebecca and Frank learn that Phenotrans is behind the outbreak, Stacey shoots both Rebecca Chang and Raymond Sullivan (killing the latter), revealing that she was working with Phenotrans the whole time as a plant. Frank wrestles her to the ground, but Stacey manages to get away, leaving her red wig behind. Frank later confronts Stacey in Uranus Zone, where she attacks Frank with a giant robot built from various theme park machines. Frank disables the robot and defeats Stacey, who is crushed by her own weapon when it collapses on top of her.
Tyrone "TK" King
- Voiced by Daren A. Herbert
TK is the main antagonist for most of the game. He is the notorious host and producer of the equally controversial, but insanely popular, pay-per-view game show "Terror Is Reality" sponsored by Zombrex. TK has no qualms about killing zombies for entertainment. Always on the look out for the next big business opportunity, it's all about money for TK. He is generally accompanied by the twins, Amber Bailey and Crystal Bailey, his two co-hostesses and bodyguards.
In both Dead Rising 2 and Off The Record, TK plays a major role in starting the zombie outbreak on behalf of Phenotrans. However, he instead turns on Phenotrans and uses the outbreak as a cover to rob Fortune City's casinos and flee the city. After being foiled by Chuck/Frank, TK is eventually captured and held prisoner in the safehouse, and Phenotrans punishes him for his failure by having him bitten by a zombie during the security breach. Canonically, in the climax of Dead Rising 2 and the opening of Case West, TK succumbs to zombification and proceeds to attack Chuck in the safehouse elevator while trying to retrieve Katey's backpack, only to be killed for good by Frank West.
Choosing to give TK a Zombrex dose after he gets infected will trigger the Overtime scenario after the end of the main story, though Frank is forced to give him the cure in Off the Record, in which TK takes hostages (Stacey and Katey for Chuck, Rebecca for Frank) and uses them to blackmail Chuck/Frank into collecting various items for him throughout Fortune City. Once Chuck/Frank delivers the items to the arena, TK appears as the final boss and is killed when Chuck/Frank knocks him from the rafters to the ground below.
Marian Mallon
- Voiced by Jacqueline Samuda (Dead Rising 2: Case West), Kathleen Garrett (Dead Rising 3)
First appearing in Dead Rising 2: Case West, Marian Mallon is the cold-hearted Director of the Phenotrans corporation and partner to Isabela Keyes. It is implied that both of them are responsible for orchestrating the Fortune City outbreak so as to farm the wasp "Queens" needed to develop Zombrex. Isabela acts as her top scientist while Marian pretends to treat her like a slaving prisoner. Dr. Mallon claims that her work is for the good of humanity in spite of all the death that her company has spread. Newspapers in her office identify her as being an esteemed doctor in bionetics and as a survivor of a zombie attack that has since left her crippled and with bite wounds on her left cheek.
Chuck Greene and Frank West meet Dr. Mallon shortly after reuniting with Isabela in the Phenotrans research facility, but Isabela secretly contacts her and asks her troops to "recapture" her and take her to safety. Dr. Mallon boasts to Chuck and Frank that thanks to Isabela's partnership and research, she has discovered a permanent cure to zombification and has used it all on herself, thus eliminating all need for Zombrex. However, this is implied that she only used one sample on herself and that she and Isabela are using the rest for the future events in Dead Rising 3. Afterwards, she declares that humanity does not deserve such a cure and escapes the facility along with Isabela before it self-destructs.
Marian reappears in Dead Rising 3. Since the incident at the Phenotrans Facility in Case West, it might be implied that Isabela helped her rise to an even higher position. It is also possible that the "other harvest" that was referenced at the end of Case West could have something to do with the incident in Los Perdidos. She, Isabela, and General Hemlock are all behind the zombie outbreak in Los Perdidos. During Overtime Mode, she is betrayed and killed by Hemlock after he pushes her off the roof of a building.
Dead Rising 3 major characters

Rhonda, Dick, Annie, Peter and his mother are using the Dilly Diner as a safe house, but after the diner is attacked by zombies, Rhonda recommends that they go to her garage Wrench-O-Rama in Ingleton. Once at the garage, she will work on fixing the TV while Nick explores around Ingleton. Talking to Rhonda will finish Chapter 0 while the group watches the news report for an update on the outbreak.
She travels with Nick and Dick to the Quarantine Station during Chapter 1. When they arrive, the group is ambushed by a group of thugs. Two men attempt to abduct and sexually abuse Rhonda, but she manages to overpower the men and hide while Nick deals with the remaining thugs and their leader Hunter. After Hunter has been killed, Rhonda comforts Nick, telling him that it was "them or us". After Nick gets bitten, Rhonda tells him to go to the morgue to get Zombrex, as morgues will always carry an emergency supply. Instead of going with him, she goes with Diego to investigate the airplane that he has told them about.
Rhonda however ends up getting tortured and having her left arm amputated by General Hemlock's soldiers. Nick arrives just in time to help her stop the bleeding with the help of a first aid kit. After stopping the bleeding, Nick makes and replaces her missing arm with a combo weapon mounted with flamethrowers, on her request.
Dick Baker
A playable character for co-op mode only, and play alongside Nick Ramos. Unlike any other character in the past, he also makes an appearance throughout the game's main story even when you are not playing co-op.
Dick is a truck driver who stops in Los Perdidos and gets trapped there, due to the current outbreak happening at the time. He travels alongside Nick, Annie and Rhonda. He is supposed to serve as a sort of "comic relief" as Nick's partner. He is described as a "wise cracker" who sees Nick as his best way of escaping Los Perdidos.
Gary Finkel
Gary is a mobster that works for mobster boss at the Diamond Panty club and bar. He is an ex-wrestler and was once married to Rhonda.
He first meets Nick at St. Keith's Memorial Grounds and asks to assist him in finding a dead body at the morgue so that he can bring it to his boss at the club, by which he will then return the favor by finding Nick Zombrex for his bite and also shows Nick that killing Queens will also kill the surrounding zombies. After Nick and Gary find the corpse in the morgue, Nick helps him deliver the corpse to the club.
When Gary's boss discovers that the corpse is not who he is looking for, Gary will ask that Nick bring him Annie in exchange for fuel that Nick requires for the airplane. He secretly follows Nick to where Annie is hiding, as he had a feeling that Nick couldn't bring himself to turn Annie in. Gary then finds the Illegals hideout and holds Nick, Red and Annie at gunpoint. He attempts to abduct Annie, but Special Forces soldiers show up and take Gary, Annie and a few of the other Illegals away. Red and Nick devise a plan to get into the military compound to rescue their friends. Once Nick breaks in and frees Annie, Gary and the other Illegals, Gary once again attempts to abduct Annie but is stopped by Nick. Gary disappears again, in hot pursuit of Annie.
Towards the end of the main story, it is revealed that Gary's boss is Chuck Greene, who became a crime lord in order to obtain zombrex for Katey Greene, which eventually prompted her to run away from him and change her name to Annie.
After helping Chuck reunite and reconcile with Annie, Gary restores his relationship with Rhonda, and the two stay behind in Los Perdidos to assist the evacuation of any remaining survivors.
Ronald Jackson

Instead, he finds Red, who immediately shoots at him. Annie shows up and defuses the situation, although Red and Annie remains suspicious of Nick after finding out that he came to find Annie for Gary. Nick immediately regrets coming to find Annie and decides to try and help Red and Annie instead. Red explains that the government is killing survivors instead of saving them. He asks Nick to do some work around the city by destroying government equipment to earn the group's trust.
After destroying all of the government property, Red will ask Nick to search the Los Perdidos Police Department for some video evidence off of the security cameras in town. He and Annie will meet Nick at The Burgess-Dawson Hotel once the footage has been recovered. In the end Red betrays the group and try's to capture Nick for five million dollars.

After being tricked by two Santa Cabeza survivors, Isabela and Carlito Keyes, to come to Willamette, Dr. Barnaby is captured and left to the zombies when they invade the mall, but is rescued by Frank West. At first, Dr. Barnaby is reluctant to speak, but when asked about Santa Cabeza, he quickly claims that it was a terrorist refuge since destroyed.
