Silas Vorez is the main antagonist in The Quarry.
Appearance[]
Silas in human form
Silas' human form can only be glimpsed very briefly at the end of the game if Laura chooses to kill him. He is a boy with albinism, and short white hair. His albinism carries over in his werewolf form, causing his appearance as a werewolf to be much paler, earning him the nickname "The White Wolf". In his werewolf form he has slightly glowing red eyes, pointy ears, and a muzzle. Also, his fangs are larger than the other werewolves' fangs.
Personality[]
Little is known of Silas' personality but he appears to be feral, living in the woods and attacking people who interact with him. He takes the opportunity to escape his cage and runs off once Caleb Hackett opens his door, however he may have simply escaped because of the fire. He still seems attached to the cage, as he returns to his cage even in his werewolf form six years after his escape.
Possible Deaths[]
| Chapter | Cause of Death | Caused By | Conditions |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Shot with Silver Bullet | Laura | Laura fails to keep the car steady; Laura completes QTEs to grab the gun and shoot Silas. |
| Laura prevents the car from crashing; Laura raises the gun OR completes the QTE to dodge Travis; Laura shoots Silas. |
Relationships[]
Eliza[]
Travis explains that Eliza is not Silas' true mother; rather she found him and cared for him like her own. Despite this, she still used him by locking him in a cage and making money off him by having him be part of her traveling freak show. Throughout the game, Eliza tries to get the player to choose options that will both avenge her and protect her son, going as far as pleading to the player for her son's life. As Silas is never seen as a living human, his feelings on his mother are left ambiguous.
Trivia[]
- Silas' background is completely unknown, including the origins of his curse. According to Travis, Eliza found him.
- Silas is seen throughout the game, but his identity can only be discovered in Chapter 10. He first appears briefly in the Prologue as the creature on the road that causes Max's car to crash. He's then seen by Ryan in Chapter 5, where he can either attack Dylan or Ryan, depending on whether Abigail broke the cabin's door or not. He is seen extensively for the first time in Chapter 9, where he attacks Kaitlyn and potentially Dylan. Finally in Chapter 10 if Laura, Ryan, and Travis are all alive and Travis isn't hostile, they can learn more about Silas and find him on purpose.
- Interestingly, Silas is the Greek nickname for the Latin name Silvanus, which literally means "from the forest".
