Perdita

It's... you. The main character of A Case of Missing Identity. Perdita is a newly-formed Distortion, awake in a lonely world full of beings who fear her and her kind. The cold that buries itself in her core is unbearable, and every night she dreams of a girl who she's never met, yet idolizes as the perfect iteration of herself. Players control Perdita as she learns the rules of life as a Distortion, searching for her Tether and trying to understand her place in the world. As a character, Perdita's perception and nature is influenced by the player's choices throughout the game. She can be gentle to Humans, save them from their pains at the cost of her kind's safety and own well-being. You can shape her into a wary mind who keeps her distance from Distortions, or even a volatile heart that runs toward happiness at all costs. This Distortion does not respond to her given title, instead donning the name of Perdita. Prolonged exposure to Distortion's voice induces madness, paranoia and despair in victims; attempts to document this Distortion's voice is unstable, as all victims perceive it differently, and recordings are unintelligible. Victims of compulsive persuasion will feel an intense desire for bloodshed, whether it is their own or any nearby human. It is presumed this Distortion gains more portraits to hide behind with each successful death. Distortion's desire to kill Tether does not stem from hatred; rather, the Distortion feels an overwhelming sorrow towards her own lack of identity, and wishes to step into the life her Tether lives by all means necessary.
