This the the character page for the ''[[Hotel Dusk: Room 215]]'' video game. The character page for the sequel, ''[[Last Window]]'', is [[Last Window/Characters|here]]. Note that the main and recurring character entries are duplicated; trope entries should go on the page of the game in which they appear.
▲'''Main and Recurring Characters'''
'''Kyle Hyde'''▼
An ex-NYPD-detective-turned-salesman who works for Ed Vincent at the Red Crown company. A bit of a [[Jerkass]] and most certainly a [[First-Person Smartass]], Kyle is searching for his partner Brian Bradley, who went missing after he double-crossed NYPD and Kyle shot him. He stays in room 215.
Line 13 ⟶ 11:
* [[Badass]]: Oh yes.
* [[Captain Obvious]]: When examining items, he often does this, sometimes on purpose.
* [[Dark and Troubled Past]]: During his life as the NYPD detective three years ago, he was devastated to learn that Bradley backstabs everyone in the NYPD, confronts him at the Hudson River dock and pulled his gun's trigger and shot the latter which resulted in him retiring from his job and moved back to Los Angeles to start a new life.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]
* [[First-Person Smartass]]
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Very cynical, but a very kind man to everyone.

* [[Turn in Your Badge]]: He was fired from NYPD before the events of ''Hotel Dusk''.
