[edit] Bernard Nadler
[edit] Rose Henderson
[edit] Cindy Chandler
[edit] Vincent
- Played by: Madison,[8] Pono[9]
- Also known as: "the dog", "Vinnie"
- Appears in: "Pilot: Part 1", "Tabula Rasa", "Walkabout", "The Moth", 'Solitary", "All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues", "Whatever the Case May Be", "Hearts and Minds", "Special", "Homecoming", "Outlaws", "...In Translation", "Do No Harm", "Exodus: Part 1", "Exodus: Part 2", "Man of Science, Man of Faith", "Orientation", "Everybody Hates Hugo", "...And Found", "Abandoned", "Collision", "The Hunting Party", "The Long Con", "Maternity Leave", "S.O.S.", "Three Minutes," "Tricia Tanaka Is Dead" "Exposé"
- Reason for trip: Brought with Michael and Walt on the plane to live with the father and son in New York.
Vincent is Walt's dog (a yellow labrador retriever). Michael told Walt that he was given to him by his stepfather. Prior to Michael, Walt, Jin and Sawyer setting sail on the Raft, Walt leaves Vincent under the care of Shannon, who loses him. Vincent often appears before something bad is about to happen to one of the survivors. With Shannon now dead Vicent went to Ana Lucia who did not welcome his company.
Vincent is still on the island in the third season. He emerges from the jungle carrying a skeletal arm and hand, which is wearing a rabbit's foot and clutching a key. Hurley and Jin follow Vincent when he runs off with the arm, and the dog leads them to a VW bus lying on its side with the rest of the skeleton inside.
[edit] Aaron Littleton
- Played by: various
- Also known as: "the baby", "Turnip Head" (Charlie)
- Appears in: "Do No Harm", "The Greater Good", "Born to Run", "Exodus: Part 1", "Exodus: Part 2", "Adrift", "Everybody Hates Hugo", "Abandoned", "What Kate Did", "The 23rd Psalm", "The Hunting Party", "Fire + Water", "The Long Con", "Maternity Leave", "Lockdown", "S.O.S.", "Three Minutes", "Live Together, Die Alone", "Further Instructions", "Every Man for Himself", "Flashes Before Your Eyes", "Par Avion", "Exposé"
- Reason for Trip: Carried by Claire; he was to be adopted in America after birth.
- Origin of Name: Aaron, brother of Moses, from the Book of Exodus.
Born to Claire Littleton on the island, Aaron Littleton was originally going to be adopted after birth. A psychic told Claire that she must raise the baby herself, (at least not by another, possibly an "other") but, when she refused, the psychic arranged for Claire to be on Flight 815 so a family in Los Angeles could adopt him. Rousseau kidnaps Aaron, saying she wants to trade him for her own child, Alex; however, Charlie and Sayid rescue him. Shortly after burning the drug-runner plane, Charlie begins to have vivid dreams that Aaron is in danger. These dreams spur Charlie into abducting Aaron and attempting to baptize him. However, Locke returns Aaron to Claire. She then asks Mr. Eko to baptise her and Aaron because Charlie admits he believes they are in great danger.
[edit] Scott Jackson & Steve Jenkins
- Played by: Dustin Watchman & Christian Bowman
- Appear in: "Pilot: Part 1," "Pilot: Part 2," "Tabula Rasa," "Walkabout," "White Rabbit," "The Moth," "Solitary," "Raised by Another," "Whatever the Case May Be," "Special," "Homecoming," "Do No Harm," "The Greater Good," Exodus: Part 1," "Everybody Hates Hugo," "Collision," "The 23rd Psalm," "Two for the Road," "Tricia Tanaka Is Dead," and "Exposé"
Scott Jackson and Steve Jenkins are two of the crash survivors; a running gag is that they are regularly confused with each other during the series - even after the death of one of them. In "Homecoming", the character played by Bowman is killed with every bone in his body broken by Ethan Rom. Later on, the character played by Watchman is described as wanting to join Ana Lucia's army to attack the Others, probably in revenge for the death of his friend.
[edit] Edward Mars
- Played by: Fredric Lehne
- Also known as: "the marshal", "the man with the shrapnel"
- Appears in: "Pilot: Part 1" (no dialogue), "Pilot: Part 2", "Tabula Rasa", "Whatever the Case May Be" (as a corpse), "Exodus: Part 1", "Exodus: Part 2", "What Kate Did", "I Do", "Left Behind"
- Reason for trip: Bringing the fugitive Kate Austen back to the United States
- Profession: US Marshal
U.S. Marshal Edward Mars had been pursuing Kate for three years before capturing her in Australia, and was on Flight 815 to extradite her to the United States. He aggressively chases her, and gloats over her whenever he does apprehend her. He is badly injured during the crash and whenever he regains consciousness, he warns that Kate is dangerous. However, shortly before dying, he seems to make peace with her. Sawyer shoots Mars (since Mars wants to be put out of his misery) in the chest, but fails to kill him. Jack then euthanizes Mars.
[edit] Dr. Leslie Arzt
- Played by: Daniel Roebuck
- Appears in: "Born to Run", "Exodus: Part 1", "Exodus: Part 2", "Exposé"
- Also known as: "Artz" (website, various characters), "Arnzt" (Hurley)
- Profession: Ninth grade science teacher
- Origin of Name: German for "doctor".[1]
Arzt, who asks the survivors to address him as "Doctor" ("Arzt" is the German word for "doctor"), was a ninth grade science teacher. He first appears to be used as a plot exposition device to explain about the coming Monsoon. He warns the raft crew that the coming monsoon season will take the raft straight to Antarctica. Arzt accompanies the team going to the Black Rock to assist in the retrieval of dynamite to blast open the hatch. When Jack, Kate, and Locke bring it outside, a panicked Arzt explains to them that, in the hot jungle temperature, dynamite "sweats" highly unstable nitroglycerin. As he continues to explain the properties of nitroglycerin, he begins to wave with his hands, causing the dynamite to explode and kill him. In the episode "Exposé", flashbacks reveal that he kept a collection of native fauna in various jars, including a spider with venom capable of causing severe paralysis. Nikki keeps the spider for some time; it and others of its species later cause the paralysis of herself and Paulo, which results in their unwitting live burial.
The name/character was based on a disliked high school science teacher that creator Damon Lindelof had in Teaneck High School.[citation needed]

[edit] Danielle Rousseau
[edit] Anthony Cooper
- Played by: Kevin Tighe
- Appears in: "Deus Ex Machina", "Orientation", "Lockdown", "The Man from Tallahassee"
- Also known as: "Adam Seward"
- Origin of name: Anthony Ashley Cooper, 1st Earl of Shaftesbury, friend of John Locke
- Character relation: Locke (father)
Anthony Cooper is Locke's biological father. Cooper is an avid outdoorsman, enjoying hunting, fishing, and scuba diving, among other things. Cooper impregnates Emily Locke; however, she tells him that she wasn’t going to have the baby before leaving him. Over a year later Emily comes back with the news that she has put their son, John, up for adoption. Years pass without Cooper even trying to seek his son. However, in his older years his kidneys fail, and he needs a transplant. Emily comes back asking for money once again, and Cooper agrees to help her if she finds John for him. When he meets with his son for the first time, he extends an invitation to go hunting, which John, who never knew his father, accepts. The next few weeks Cooper and John bond over hunting, and it seems as if they have forged the father-son relationship John has always hoped for. Then Cooper tells John of his kidney failure, and Locke immediately donates his kidney to his father. Upon waking up after the surgery, however, Locke discovers that Cooper has left, going back to his home. When John tries to visit his father he is denied access, and realizes that there was no bond between them; Cooper has simply used his son for a kidney.
Unable to let go, John continues to park outside Cooper’s house, even after Cooper has moved. Cooper eventually meets with his son for the first time since the surgery, and tells him that people get conned all the time, and to get over the incident, saying “And John, don’t come back. You’re not wanted.”
Later, Cooper cons two men out of $700,000. Afraid they might kill him, Cooper fakes his death, then enlists his son’s help to get the money from a safe deposit box, promising him $200,000. When John delivers the money, he rejects it, saying that he didn’t do it for the money. John then tells Cooper about Helen, and how he was planning on proposing to her. Just then, Helen herself appears at the door and slaps Cooper for not letting John find peace and put his past behind him after finding out about his father's death. She then confronts John about his promise to let go of Cooper, and rejects his proposal. Cooper then leaves John, with only the slightest bit of sympathy for his son and what he has done to him in his face.
Sometime later, Cooper begins another con with a woman, Ms. Talbot. Locke, having been visited by her son, confronts him, and tells him to end it. Cooper vows to, but in reality continues, and it is assumed that he kills her son. Locke storms into his penthouse, demanding to know if Cooper is the murderer. Cooper denies this, but moves Locke to a vantage point, shoving him out the window to fall eight stories and break his back, causing Locke's paraplegia. Cooper then disappears, presumably to Mexico.
On the island, Locke is led by Ben to a small room under the barracks, where he keeps "the man from Tallahassee," who is revealed to be Cooper, tied to a chair and gagged.
An interesting connection between Sawyer and Anthony Cooper has been displayed through the Season 2 Lost DVD Bonus disc, prompting one to wonder about Cooper's own past and connections to James "Sawyer" Ford. Cooper often refers to cons in season two, specifically in reference to long cons, one last con, and telling his son "You think you're the first one to be conned?". In Lockdown Cooper displays that he needs to con people to survive, which gets him in trouble to the point where his life is in danger. Anthony also is very guarded, living with 24 hour security and surrounded by weapons in his home. Anthony's age would place him in his 30s to 40s when James Ford was a child, meaning he could be the elusive Sawyer. TV Guide's Michael Ausiello confirmed that a line of dialogue was cut from "Lockdown" to make the link between Cooper and Sawyer more subtle.[10]
[edit] Kelvin Joe Inman
- Played by: Clancy Brown
- Appears in: "One of Them", "Live Together, Die Alone"
- Profession: DHARMA Initiative employee, former US intelligence operative
Kelvin Joe Inman was formerly an intelligence operative for the United States government, actively involved with prisoner interrogation during the Gulf War of 1990-1991, during which he made Sayid into an unwilling student of torture techniques. Later, Kelvin joined the DHARMA Initiative, and ended up on a two-man crew operating the Swan Station on the island. His partner was a man named Radzinski, who taught him how to hotwire the blast doors and draw an invisible map on them using detergent. After Radzinski kills himself (or so Kelvin tells the story), Kelvin continues to press the button alone until he finds Desmond, dragging him into the Swan in a Hazmat suit. Kelvin instructs Desmond in the operation of the blast doors and administration of the vaccine, and, during a drunken episode, tells Desmond about the station's failsafe mechanism, claiming that it has the power to "make it all go away". It soon becomes clear to Desmond that Kelvin has become disenchanted with DHARMA and that he has some kind of ulterior motive in preventing him from leaving the hatch. In fact, unbeknownst to Desmond, Kelvin is repairing Desmond's yacht and planning to escape the island. When Desmond discovers that Kelvin plans to leave him alone to press the button, Kelvin advises him to "screw the button", saying, "We don't even know if it's real." Desmond, furious that Kelvin "stole his life", fights with Kelvin and accidentally kills him. Kelvin's supposed death appears to have occurred mere minutes before the crash of Flight 815, as the fatal struggle between him and Desmond delays the entry of the code, and the resulting electromagnetic event presumably brought down the plane.
[edit] Orientation film characters
The following are characters that have only been seen in the 1980s orientation films for the DHARMA Initiative stations and all information on them comes from these videos. Their current status remains unknown.
[edit] "Dr. Marvin Candle" / "Dr. Mark Wickmund"
- Played by: François Chau
- Appears in: "Orientation", "What Kate Did", "?", "Live Together, Die Alone" (reused footage), "The Cost of Living" (reused footage), "Enter 77"
- Profession: Alleged Scientist
Marvin Candle and Mark Wickmund are the names that the man in the DHARMA Initiative orientation films calls himself. It is unknown if one or either is his real name, but the similarities of their names (both first names begin with Mar, and "Wick"mund may be a pun on the other name, Candle) suggest they are both aliases.
In the Station 3 Orientation film, "Candle"'s left arm appears to be a prosthetic (which was confirmed in an interview with the creators on their podcast). In the Station 5 Orientation video, both of "Wickmund"'s arms move.
"Candle" or "Wickmund" is also featured on the special features disc of the second season DVD set. In an orientation film similar to the one on the show, he addresses the viewer and presents various featurettes as part of their "tour of duty" observing the island and its inhabitants. Both his arms move in this appearance.
In "Enter 77", "Candle" appears on the computer after Locke beats the chess game. His image is used in a video menu of various options this computer can do. In the video, one hand appears to be prosthetic.
[edit] Gerald and Karen DeGroot
- Gerald DeGroot played by: Michael Gilday
- Karen DeGroot played by: Courtney Lavigne
- Appear in: "Orientation", "What Kate Did", "?"
- Profession: Scientists
Gerald and Karen DeGroot were a couple of doctoral candidates from the University of Michigan and followers of the teachings of B. F. Skinner. In 1970, thanks to the funding of the Hanso Foundation, they founded the DHARMA Initiative, which they envisioned as a large-scale communal compound of scientists and free thinkers from around the world gathered to study meteorology, zoology, electromagnetism, parapsychology and psychology (the mention of the final subject of study remains partially revealed: "utopian social...").
Footage of Gerald experimenting with electromagnets was seen in a brainwashing film in "Not in Portland".
[edit] Alvar Hanso
- Played by: Ian Patrick Williams (in Sri Lanka video and finale of the Lost Experience)
- Appears in: "Orientation"
- Profession: Businessman, former arms salesman and manufacturer
The Danish reclusive creator of the Hanso Foundation, he is a former NATO arms supplier. He is only seen once in The Swan Orientation film, in a single photo which is also used on the Hanso Foundation website and television commercials. However, the narrator in the Orientation film segment of the Sri Lanka Video of the Lost Experience also claims to be Alvar Hanso. This video is dated as being copyrighted in 1975, while his photo is dated as both 2003 and as being taken before 1980. Hanso was an arms supplier for various resistance movements in World War II and then for NATO during the Cold War.
Most of the information on him comes from the Hanso Foundation website.
[edit] Flashback characters
Many characters have appeared through the main characters' flashbacks, and are not on the island. See IMDB for a complete listing of all guest and flashback characters.
[edit] Dr. Christian Shephard
[edit] Sarah Shephard
- Played by: Julie Bowen
- Appears in: "Do No Harm", "Man of Science, Man of Faith", "The Hunting Party", "A Tale of Two Cities"
- Character relation: Jack (ex-wife)
Sarah Shephard was Jack's wife. Eight months before her wedding to her fiancé, Kevin, she was involved in a car crash with an SUV driven by Adam Rutherford (Shannon's father and Boone's step-father). She is rushed to St. Sebastian hospital, and is treated by Jack. Sarah has broken her back, and Jack informs her that she will never walk again. Sarah invites Jack to her wedding. However, Kevin leaves her when he discovers her paralysis. Sarah feels sad over the death of Adam Rutherford, and Jack says that he will "fix her". Knowing that a full recovery is highly improbable, the surgeon goes out for a run and meets Desmond, who tells Jack to believe in miracles. When Jack presents Sarah with the bad news, she surprises him by wiggling her toes. They fall in love and marry but some time later, Sarah leaves Jack. Prior to her leaving, Jack confronts her and he admits to kissing the daughter of a patient who had died in surgery. Sarah, in return, reveals that she has been seeing someone else due to Jack's frequent absence, and says that she wishes to leave. After the divorce Sarah refuses to tell Jack the name of the man she left him for. Jack gets angry when he finds Christian's number on Sarah's cell phone and he assumes his father is the man she left him for. When Jack is wrong Sarah tells him that Christian has started drinking again, and that she still won't give the name of the man she's currently with. In A Tale of Two Cities, Jack asks Juliet if Sarah is happy. She responds with "Very happy," leaving Jack to break down in tears. However, it's unknown if Juliet was telling the truth, if she even knew, or if it was only a lie to either break or assuage Jack.
[edit] Jae Lee
- Played by: Tony Lee
- Appears in: "...And Found", "The Whole Truth", "The Glass Ballerina"
- Character relation: Sun (secret lover/English Instructor), Jin (owner of hotel where formerly employed)
Jae Lee was the wealthy son of the owner of the Seoul Gateway Hotel and the hotel's General Manager.
He attended Harvard and studied Medieval Russian Literature, where he met and fell in love with an American woman. He met Sun on a family arranged date, but told her he wasn't interested because of his previous love, which apparently failed.
He taught Sun English (at her request), and ended up having an affair with her. He gave her a strand of pearls and asked her to leave for America with him.
In The Glass Ballerina, Mr. Paik finds out about the affair, but instead of telling Jin about it, lies to Jin and tells him Jae is stealing from him, addressing this in terms of "honor". He orders Jin to "deliver a message to" (kill) Jae. Jin finds him and beats him up, but cannot bring himself to kill him and so tells him to leave the country and never return.
Jae Lee ends up falling from many stories high and lands on Jin's car with the string of pearls he attempted to give Sun clutched in his hand.
Many fans initially suspected foul play, but his death has been confirmed a suicide by the producers in their podcast. His large funeral is attended by Sun, who comes to mourn for him, and by Mr. Paik, who is obligated to attend because of family business connections.
He is perhaps the father of the still unborn child of Sun.
[edit] Yemi
- Played by: Adetokumboh M'Cormack
- Appears in: "The 23rd Psalm", "?", "The Cost of Living"
- Character relation: Mr. Eko (brother), Locke (vision)
Yemi was the brother of Mr. Eko. When they were young, the village of Yemi and Eko was invaded by drug runners, who commanded that Yemi shoot an old man. Eko saved him from doing this task, however, and shot the man instead; the men sensed the potential for ruthlessness in Eko and took him with them when they left, leaving Yemi behind. Yemi later became a priest and worked to improve the lives of his parishioners. For example, he made arrangements to procure vaccines twice a year for the village; thugs took 80% of the vaccines in exchange for offering "protection" to the village, but villagers acknowledged that without Yemi's efforts they would have had no vaccines at all. He planned on moving to London to continue his education.
One day, the week before Yemi is scheduled to leave for London, Eko pays him a visit. Eko needs to transport heroin out of the country and wants to use the missionary planes of the church. Yemi initially refuses, but gives in when Eko warns him that his partners will burn down the church if Yemi does not cooperate. Yemi reluctantly signs papers to give Eko and his men the authority of priests. Yemi dies trying to stop Eko and the men from leaving; he is shot by gunfire from the army as the plane with the heroin begins to take off.
He later appears as a vision to Locke and Eko, and he leads them to the Question Mark. It is implied that the "monster" also takes his form and kills Mr Eko.
[edit] Penelope "Penny" Widmore
- Played by: Sonya Walger
- Appears in: "Live Together, Die Alone," "Flashes Before Your Eyes"
- Character relation: Desmond (ex-girlfriend)
Penelope "Penny" Widmore is the great love of Desmond, and his girlfriend before he was separated from her by her domineering and extremely wealthy father, Charles Widmore. Desmond was shipwrecked on the island while trying to win a race to prove his worth to her father and get her back. As shown at the end of the Season 2 finale, she may still be looking for him, and more significantly, may know how to find him. Penelope is an allusion to the wife of Ulysses in Homer's Odyssey, who waited twenty years for the return of her husband. In "Flashes Before Your Eyes", Desmond tells Penelope that things haven't been great in a while and she slaps him and she tearfully walks away. Desmond throws his engagement ring into the river Thames.
