After failing to complete their tests in time they were confronted by Zepp Hindle. Adam managed to kill Zepp, believing him to be Jigsaw while Gordon attempted to escape to get help for himself and Adam. Having failed, the real Jigsaw showed himself and left Adam trapped to die. Jigsaw's apprentice, Amanda, came to Adam following his game and suffocated him to death in an attempt to end his suffering. His decomposed corpse was shown in Saw II and Saw III.

In Saw III, after Matthews was kidnapped and presumed dead following the events of II, Kerry became wracked with guilt for his loss. She and Detective Hoffman was on the case and was the first to point out that a trap did not follow Jigsaw's modus operandi. Which the trap did not give the victim a chance to escape, thus did not believe Jigsaw was responsible for it. She was later captured and placed in her own trap ("Angel Trap"), though she followed the rules and tried to secure her freedom, the trap was designed and rigged by Amanda Young to not release her and the trap tore her ribcage from her body. Her corpse was later discovered by Rigg and the FBI. It was shown in Saw IV that she was also an FBI contact passing information to Agents Peter Strahm and Lindsey Perez.

Appeared in: Saw: Rebirth, Saw, Saw II, Saw III, Saw IV, Saw V, Saw VI, Saw: The Video Game
Amanda was one of Jigsaw's earliest targets who managed to survive her 'game'. Believing she was changed from her self-harming ways she was recruited by Jigsaw as his apprentice.

David Tapp
Main article: David Tapp
Portrayed by Danny Glover (film) and Earl Alexander (game).
Appeared in: Saw, Saw: The Video Game
David Tapp was a detective assigned to investigate early Jigsaw crimes. Evidence led him to suspect Dr. Lawrence Gordon of being Jigsaw and led him to a possible hideout for Jigsaw. Tapp and his partner Sing found the real Jigsaw and attempted to arrest him but were stopped when the killer activated a nearby trap, threatening the life of the man trapped within it. Sing rushed to help the victim while Tapp attempted to arrest Jigsaw but Jigsaw retaliated by slicing open Tapp's throat. As they pursued Jigsaw, Sing was killed in a booby-trap for which Tapp blamed himself. As he became obsessed with capturing Jigsaw, Tapp was dismissed from the force. Still convinced that Gordon was Jigsaw, Tapp investigated him privately, inadvertently coming into conflict with Zep Hindle who was holding Gordon's family hostage. Tapp gave chase and fought with Zepp but was shot and left for dead. In Saw: The Video Game, it is shown that Tapp was nursed back to health by Jigsaw and placed in a series of traps in an asylum, forced to overcome tests and other victims sent to kill him. In the game's "Freedom" ending, Tapp manages to escape the asylum but commits suicide sometime afterwards by shooting himself in the head in his apartment because he could not overcome his obsession with Jigsaw. In the game's "Truth" ending, Tapp becomes insane and is sent to an asylum. In Saw V, Tapp is given a police memorial.

Donnie Greco
Portrayed by Oren Koules.
Appeared in: Saw, Saw III, Saw IV
Donnie Greco first appeared in Amanda's Reverse Bear Trap scene in Saw. He was heavily tranquilized (injected with an opioid overdose) and "couldn't move or feel much of anything" as part of Amanda's test. The key to the lock on the reverse bear trap had been placed in his stomach, and to get to it, Amanda had to cut into him. She was told that he was dead, but he began to stir slightly as she knelt over him with the knife; nevertheless, she still disemboweled him to get the key. Donnie was seen again in Saw III in a flashback showing Jigsaw preparing the trap by painting a question-mark on Donnie's stomach. He appeared in a flashback in Saw IV exiting Jill's health clinic with Paul Leahy. In Saw V his given name is shown as Donnie Greco, as indicated by a document observed by Agent Strahm.
Jeff Ridenhour-Thomas
Portrayed by Ned Bellamy (film) and Dex Manley (game).
Jeff first appeared in Saw as a victim of one of Jigsaw's experimental traps. Jeff was bound to a chair with two drills facing his neck. Once activated, the drills moved towards his neck, and Detective Steven Sing was told that the key to stop them was on a ring filled with dozens of keys. Upon realizing he couldn't find the right key in time, Sing shot the drills, successfully deactivating them. He later appears in Saw: The Video Game. Jeff is shown to have become suicidal from Detective Tapp repeatedly questioning him about Jigsaw. Detective Tapp saves him and he runs away. His last name is stated to be Thomas in the video game but it was shown in Saw V that his family name was Ridenhour, as indicated by a document observed by Agent Strahm. Because of this, Jeff's surname is not completely clear.
John Kramer (Jigsaw/The Jigsaw Killer)
Main article: Jigsaw Killer
Portrayed by Tobin Bell (film/game) and George Williams (animated comic).
John Kramer was a successful engineer, married to Jill Tuck and expecting a son, Gideon. Following the miscarriage of his son, John became distraught and later learned he had an aggressive brain tumor. He attempted suicide but ultimately survived finding a new appreciation for life, realizing how much of his own he had wasted. Using his wealth and skill, John set about testing the 'will to live' of others by placing them in deadly traps, hoping to make them too appreciate their lives. Those who failed would have a jigsaw-shaped piece cut from their flesh. This missing piece was used to coin his nickname, "Jigsaw" or "The Jigsaw Killer". John, near death already, was killed by one of his surviving victims.
Jigsaw took two apprentices, Mark Hoffman and Amanda Young, hoping for them to carry on his legacy, however they both failed to truly understand and appreciate his philosophy.
Portrayed by Cary Elwes (film) and Stan Kirsch (animated comic).
Appeared in: Saw: Rebirth, Saw, Saw III

Dr. Lawrence Gordon
Dr. Lawrence Gordon was the man responsible for diagnosing John Kramer's cancer and was initially a suspect in the Jigsaw case. As Jigsaw, John targeted Gordon for engaging in an affair with his medical student despite having a loving family. Gordon was placed in a trap alongside Adam and tasked with killing him before the time-limit ran out or his wife and daughter would be executed. He failed to do this but instead severed his own foot to free himself from his shackles, attempting to crawl to freedom and promising to bring help back for Adam. A flashback in Saw III showed him lying unconscious on the bathroom floor. Saw V revealed that Hoffman set up Gordon as a Jigsaw suspect by placing Gordon's pen-light at a Jigsaw crime scene.
When Leigh Whannell asked Cary Elwes what he thought about his character's fate on the commentary for the Saw: Uncut Edition DVD, Elwes responded with, "Let's face it, guys. He's severed his whole leg off. The loss of blood alone, even with that pathetic tourniquet he made with his shirt. It's a wrap. He's not going to get two blocks." Darren Lynn Bousman said on the DVD commentaries for Saw IV that his intent was to leave Dr. Gordon's fate an unanswered question and let fans make up their own minds. In a November 2009 podcast interview with Matt Horn of Demon FM, he asked Patrick Melton, co-writer of IV, V, VI and the upcoming VII, if Dr. Gordon's fate would be answered before the series ended. Melton stated that Gordon's fate would be revealed in VII, the tentative last installment of the series.[1]
Portrayed by Paul Gutrecht.
Appeared in: Saw: Rebirth, Saw
Mark[2], a 30 year old software analyst,[2] was one of Jigsaw's earliest victims, targeted because he feigned illness and injury to excuse himself from his responsibilities when he was in fact perfectly healthy. Mark was stripped naked and informed that he had a slow acting poison in his body, the antidote being locked in a safe in the room. Mark had to overcome the broken-glass covered floor and use a candle to read the safe combination written on the wall, wary of the fact his flesh was smeared in a flammable substance. Mark eventually fumbled with the candle and the substance ignited, burning him alive; his charred corpse was found later by police.
Paul Leahy
Portrayed by Mike Butters.
Appeared in: Saw: Rebirth, Saw, Saw IV, Saw V
Paul was one of Jigsaw's earliest victims, chosen because he attempted suicide by cutting his wrists despite having a 'good' life with a wife and kids. Paul was placed in a large cage lined with a maze of razor wire and given 2 hours to crawl his way to freedom, the irony of this being that if Paul wanted to live he would have to cut himself but if he really wanted to die, all he had to do was wait. Paul died of injuries from the razor wire before reaching the exit. Paul was later seen in Saw IV leaving Jill's drug clinic. In Saw V, Paul is shown being kidnapped by Jigsaw and Hoffman for his test in Saw.
Steven Sing
Portrayed by Ken Leung.
Steven Sing was a detective who was called to the crime scene investigation of one of Jigsaw's victims. He and his partner, David Tapp, were assigned to the case. Tapp found a clue in one of the tapes left over from the crime scene, leading Sing and Tapp right to Jigsaw's hideout. There, they found a man in a trap with drills aimed at his neck. Jigsaw arrived and activated the device forcing the detectives to choose between arresting him or saving Jeff. Sing shot the drills and deactivated them before pursuing Jigsaw through the warehouse after Jigsaw had slashed Tapp's throat. While in pursuit, Sing accidentally activated a tripwire which triggered four shotguns hidden above to fire and kill Sing. Sing's death triggered Tapp's obsession with Jigsaw. In Saw V, Sing was given a police memorial.
It is shown in the video game that Sing had a wife named Melissa and a son named Franklin. Melissa encounters Tapp during the game and blames him for the death of her husband.
Zep Hindle
Portrayed by Michael Emerson (film) and Jeff Shuter (animated comic).
Zep was an orderly who worked in the hospital where John Kramer, the Jigsaw Killer, was treated for his cancer. He formed a sort of bond with John while he was being treated, but was considered to have "issues of his own" by him. John seemed to see a lot of his own actions in Zep's goals, reminding him of himself before he was diagnosed with cancer.[3] Zep would later be forced to watch Adam Faulkner and Dr. Gordon play out their game that took place in a bathroom. If Lawrence failed to kill Adam by 6 o'clock, then Zep would be forced to kill Lawrence's wife and child, whom he had been holding hostage, in order to save himself from the slow-acting nerve agent in his bloodstream. He would then have to kill Lawrence himself and presumably retrieve an antidote from Jigsaw. Lawrence failed, but his wife and daughter managed to escape from Zep's grip before he could kill them, as Zep was attacked by David Tapp, a former detective who was watching the Gordons' home from across the street. Zep was forced to flee down to the sewers to kill Lawrence, but Tapp followed him, which resulted in a small fight. Zep managed to shoot Tapp in the stomach and continue to the bathroom, where he found Adam and Lawrence. Lawrence shot Adam, and tried to shoot Zep, but didn't have enough bullets. As Zep was about to kill Lawrence, Adam pulled his leg out from under him and attacked him with a toilet cover, bludgeoning him to death with it.
Throughout the film, Zep is presented as a red herring, with the audience being encouraged to believe that he was Jigsaw, rather than a victim of one of Jigsaw's games. On the commentary for Saw, Leigh Whannell and James Wan stated that they wrote the scene to show that Zep enjoyed the sense of power he was given over others which he did not have before. Zep's decomposed corpse was later seen in Saw II and Saw III.
Saw II
Addison Corday
Portrayed by Emmanuelle Vaugier.
Appeared in: Saw II, Saw IV
Addison was a prostitute and a victim in the Nerve Gas House in Saw II. Like most of the other victims in the house, she had been arrested by Eric Matthews. Though she attempted to work with the other prisoners to survive, upon learning that another victim, Daniel, was Eric Matthews' son, she began working alone to find the vaccine to the gas slowly killing her. In her attempt to reach an antidote, her wrists became trapped between razor blades. Xavier found her but declined to help her, leaving her to die. In Saw IV she is shown prior to John Kramer becoming Jigsaw, offering him 'company' in her role as a prostitute.
It was revealed in the commentary for the second film that there was a key already in the lock at the back of the trap Addison died in, and all she had to do in order to live was to turn it and grab the antidote. According to the Saw II website, Addison was written to be 29 years old.[4].
Daniel Matthews
Portrayed by Erik Knudsen.
Appeared in: Saw II
Daniel appeared in Saw II, he is the son of Eric Matthews. After a falling out with his father, Daniel went missing but was revealed to have been captured and placed in another of Jigsaws games alongside several convicts, all arrested by Daniel's father. As the game progressed, Daniels lineage was discovered and he was abandoned by many of the other victims. As time ran low, Daniel and Amanda worked together to get away from Xavier, an enraged victim who was hunting them. Xavier found them but Daniel managed to slice open his neck with a rusty saw, killing him and saving Amanda and himself. After these events it is revealed that Amanda, Jigsaw's new apprentice, had taken the unconscious Daniel to Jigsaw's lair and they had locked him in a safe as an incentive for Eric Matthews in his own test.
Daniel Rigg
Portrayed by Lyriq Bent.
Appeared in: Saw II, Saw III, Saw IV
Daniel Rigg was a S.W.A.T officer who first appeared in Saw II, assisting detectives Eric Matthews and Allison Kerry in arresting Jigsaw, but ultimately failed to capture the felon after Eric helped Jigsaw escape. He held the rank of Commander for this film, but was promoted to Lieutenant before the events of Saw III. Appearing only briefly in Saw III, Rigg was eventually put into a series of tests as the protagonist in Saw IV, in which he had to rethink many of the Jigsaw Killer's ideals. He suffered a gunshot wound to the stomach in his final test; and it was revealed that he died of blood loss in Saw V and was also given a memorial, along with Detectives Eric Matthews, Allison Kerry, David Tapp, and Steven Sing.
Lyriq Bent has remarked that: "I didn't know what to expect of his character in the fourth movie. Lieutenant Rigg has really come into himself. In Saw II, he was really the strong, silent type that really didn't know what was going on around him. You had a sense that there was something going on with him internally, and I think that sparked a lot of curiosity in the audience. They wanted to know, 'Who is this guy, and what's he all about?' In Saw IV, you get to find out who he is, and what he's all about, and how he feels about the situation that he's in, and how he feels about the type of work that he's in and people and all that. And I think he's a character that people are gonna like, because they can relate to him on so many different levels. He's a real person. In Saw IV, you get to go on a journey with him, and it's pretty much an emotional journey. At the end, I only hope that the audience will be as exhausted and worn out as he is, because he becomes this broken man." His first name is shown to be Daniel at a police memorial service in Saw V.
Eric Matthews
Main article: Eric Matthews (Saw)
Portrayed by Donnie Wahlberg.
Eric Matthews was a detective who led a SWAT team to Jigsaw's latest lair in Saw II. Before he could be arrested, Jigsaw revealed he had possession of Eric's son and that he would have to play in Jigsaw's game to see him again. It was revealed that Eric was chosen because he had planted evidence to secure convictions against people for crimes they had not committed. Eric, concerned about his son, refused to follow Jigsaw's rules and in doing so he ended up trapped and shackled in the same bathroom in which Adam had died. However, he shattered his own foot to allow him to squeeze free of the shackle and pursue Amanda, his captor and one of the victims of his evidence-planting. He brutally beat Amanda before she gained the upper-hand and left him for dead. Jigsaw found Matthews had his foot repaired and held him captive until he could be used in a trap designed for Daniel Rigg. After Rigg failed his test, Matthews was killed when his head was crushed between two large blocks of ice. He is later given a police memorial in Saw V.

Like the other victims, Gus was in the house because he was framed for crimes by Eric Matthews.

Obi burned to death before realizing how to escape by simply turning the handle within the furnace. Obi had brief cameo appearances in Saw III in a flashback and in Saw V where he is shown unconscious, being readied for his test in Saw II by Mark Hoffman. Obi appeared in Saw: The Video Game where he is rescued from another furnace by David Tapp. In the game it is revealed that Obi desires to be tested by Jigsaw repeatedly, thinking of it as a 'gift'.

Remembering the instructions given at the start of the game, Xavier realized that the victims had numbers written on the back of their necks which, when combined, would open a safe containing antidote vials. Xavier began hunting down the other victims to collect their numbers before realizing that one of the victims, Daniel, was the son of Eric Matthews.

Danica Scott
Portrayed by Debra McCabe.
Appeared in: Saw III
Danica Scott was the only witness to the death of Jeff Reinhart's son, Dylan. Instead of staying to testify, Danica fled the scene, and was later kidnapped as part of Jeff's tests. She was stripped nude and suspended by her wrists in a freezer room. The key that would free her was hanging behind a set of frozen pipes. Once Jeff entered, water began spraying on Danica, and she was able to convince Jeff to help her. He managed to get the key, tearing part of his cheek off in the process when it froze onto the pipes. However, he was unable to open the lock, which was already covered with ice, before Danica was frozen to death. According to the final draft of the Saw III script, Danica was written to be in her 30's.[6]
Portrayed by Barry Flatman.
Halden was a judge who presided over the case of Timothy Young, a drunk driver who killed Jeff's son, Dylan. Halden was captured and positioned as part of Jeff's test of forgiveness to see if Jeff could overcome his anger at Halden for only giving Timothy a six-month sentence for his crime. Halden would drown in pig-remains unless Jeff could incinerate his sons belongings. Jeff ultimately decided to forgive and save Halden from drowning but later, as they confronted Timothy himself, Jeff accidentally triggered a shotgun which fired and hit Halden in the face, killing him. According to the final draft of the Saw III script, Halden was written to be in his 50s.[7]
Jeff Reinhart
Portrayed by Angus Macfadyen.
Appeared in: Saw III, Saw IV, Saw VI
Jeff Reinhart preparing to deliver the fatal blow to Jigsaw.
Jeff was one of Jigsaw's victims in Saw III due to his obsession with vengeance against those that were involved in the death of his son Dylan and the trial of the killer. Jeff was kidnapped and subjected to a series of encounters with those he held accountable for the incident, faced with the choice of helping them to live or allowing them to die in their individual traps. Jeff's final test was a confrontation with Jigsaw himself to prove he had learned how to forgive. Jeff claimed to forgive Jigsaw before cutting open his throat. In killing Jigsaw, Jeff inadvertently killed his wife Lynn by triggering her trap. Jigsaw's final message was for Jeff to undergo another test to save his daughter but he was killed by Agent Strahm before he was able to do so.
When asked whether he liked his character even though he hesitated in saving people, Angus Macfadyen said, "Yeah, well, I think it's kind of set up in the film that even though you think he could save them, even when he tries to, it's set-up so it all seems a little too late. That was something we were discussing was how long do you wait and pause? Because if you've done that in one room, you know you can't do that in the next because otherwise it's going to be too late for that person. So we were having lots of debates. And also because each scene, you can't play them all the same. You've got to build in each one. So did I like him? I don't think he liked himself very much."[8]
Jill Tuck-Kramer
Main article: Jill Tuck-Kramer
Portrayed by Betsy Russell (film) and Whit Anderson (animated comic).
Appeared in: Saw: Rebirth, Saw III, Saw IV, Saw V, Saw VI

After John's death, Jill visits his lawyer to hear his final will, during which she is bequeathed a box containing his last intended games and victims including one that needed Jill to test herself. Submitting to his final wishes, Jill placed Mark Hoffman in a seemingly unwinnable game before leaving the scene.
Lynn Denlon
Portrayed by Bahar Soomekh.
Lynn was an ER doctor who was kidnapped in Saw III by Amanda and tasked with keeping John Kramer/Jigsaw alive until the completion of his latest game. Lynn was placed in a collar rigged with shotgun shells, which would detonate if she moved too far from Jigsaw or if his heart monitor flatlined. She performed extensive brain surgery and care to ensure he stayed alive until Jeff Reinhart completed his three tests. Lynn was supposed to be released when Jeff finished, but ultimately Jigsaw's apprentice Amanda Young refused, believing that she had not learned anything from her experience and jealous of the attention Jigsaw had shown her. Lynn was critically injured by a gunshot from Amanda before being revealed as Jeff Reinhart's estranged wife. Jeff then killed Amanda and Jigsaw, unknowingly activating his wife's trap, blowing her head to pieces. In Saw VI it is shown in flashbacks that Hoffman blackmailed Amanda into killing Lynn, to remove his competition as Jigsaw's apprentice.

While watching the end of his current game, he is assaulted and placed in a trap by Jill Tuck and left to die.
According to producers Oren Koules and Mark Burg, Hoffman was named after late Saw producer Gregg Hoffman, who died shortly after the announcement of Saw III.
Timothy Young
Portrayed by Mpho Koaho.
Appeared in: Saw III, Saw VI
Timothy Young was a medical student who, while driving drunk, hit and killed Jeff Reinhart's son, Dylan. Timothy only received 6 months in prison due to a lack of witnesses at the trial. He appeared in Saw III, kidnapped and placed in a cross-shaped device named "The Rack" which began individually rotating Timothy's limbs beyond their capable motion, rending his flesh and breaking his bones. Jeff was tasked with obtaining the key to free Timothy and despite their past relationship Jeff obtained the key. However, Jeff was too late and the device twisted Timothy's head, breaking his neck and killing him. Timothy was shown before his death again in Saw VI, being placed into the Rack by Hoffman [9]. According to Jigsaw, Timothy was 27 when he died.[10]

Appeared in: Saw III, Saw IV
Troy was one of Amanda's first victims, chosen because of his long prison record for unnamed crimes despite his privileged upbringing. Troy was tasked with tearing out eleven chains bound through his flesh and bones before a nearby bomb detonated but he was unable to remove the final chain through his mandible in time. It was later revealed that Troy's only exit from the trap had been welded shut, leaving him no way to survive even if he removed all the chains. Troy was later seen in a flashback in Saw IV, in the waiting room of Jill's clinic.
Saw IV
Art Blank
Portrayed by Justin Louis.
Appeared in: Saw IV
Art was a lawyer involved in a housing development project with John Kramer and Jill Tuck before the events that would turn him into Jigsaw. Art was targeted by Jigsaw for successfully defending guilty people in his role as lawyer, including Brenda (a pimp), Ivan (a rapist) and Rex (an abusive husband). Art first appeared in a trap that pitted him against another victim, Trevor. Art managed to kill Trevor but was then placed in another game, tasked with keeping Eric Matthews and Mark Hoffman alive until Daniel Rigg completed his own game. If he could do this he would be freed from a device designed to sever his spinal cord. Rigg ultimately failed his game and fatally shot Art believing him to be drawing a firearm; instead he was activating Rigg's final message from Jigsaw.
Portrayed by Sarain Boylan.
Brenda was a pimp who appeared in Saw IV as a victim in Daniel Rigg's game. Brenda was placed in a machine designed to tear her scalp from her head and Rigg was instructed to simply walk away from her as she was not worth saving. After her scalp was partially torn away, Rigg managed to save her but Brenda then attempted to kill him, instructed by Jigsaw that if she didn't Rigg would send her to jail. Rigg overpowered Brenda and threw her into a mirror. She was later found dead. Art Blank was her lawyer.
Cecil Adams
Portrayed by Billy Otis.
Appeared in: Saw IV, Saw VI
Cecil[11] appeared in Saw IV, playing a large role in the transformation of John Kramer into Jigsaw. He convinced Jill Tuck to gain access to her rehab clinic and then, while making his escape, crushed her stomach by trapping her behind a door as he opened it, causing her miscarriage and killing John's son. Though he appeared remorseful he continued to flee the scene. Becoming Jigsaw's first target, Cecil was kidnapped and placed in a trap that would require Cecil to slice open his own face to gain freedom, Jigsaw wishing to make Cecil as ugly on the outside as he felt he was on the inside. As Cecil struggled, the trap appeared to collapse, and the freed Cecil lunged at a waiting Jigsaw who dodged out of his way. Cecil landed in a pile of razor wire which killed him. In Saw VI it was shown that Cecil robbed Jill's clinic at Amanda Young's request, a request that Cecil took against his own will.
Portrayed by Mike Realba.

Dr. Heffner
Portrayed by James Van Patten
Dr. Heffner is the medical examiner that performed the autopsy of John, in the beginning of Saw IV. He appeared briefly in Saw VI, where he told Agent Perez, Erickson and Hoffman that he performed all of Jigsaw's victims autopsy and also confirmed to them that Seth Baxter's trap was not done by Jigsaw. He noted that a different knife was used in his trap/murder to cut the "jigsaw puzzle piece" from his flesh.
Ivan Landsness
Portrayed by Marty Adams.
Ivan appeared in Saw IV as the clerk of the Alexander Motel. He was suspected of multiple, vicious rapes but freed repeatedly due to the efforts of his lawyer, Art Blank, Ivan was to be part of Daniel Rigg's second test. Following instructions, Rigg confronted and abducted Ivan, threatening him with a gun while forcing him into an adjoining motel room. There, they were both confronted with photographic evidence of Ivan's crimes, including a video recording of him raping a young girl. Enraged, Rigg instructed Ivan to place himself into the trap laid out across the bed, and supplied him with the tools to escape. As a sixty-second timer for the trap was activated, Ivan blinded his right eye, but he failed to activate the second switch in time. The device sprang to life, and Ivan's extremities were torn apart.
Lindsey Perez
Portrayed by Athena Karkanis.
Lindsey Perez was an FBI agent. With information provided by Allison Kerry before her death, she and Peter Strahm took over the Jigsaw case, eventually investigating the disappearances of Daniel Rigg and Mark Hoffman. As they followed clues left for Rigg, it became apparent that they themselves were being targeted by Jigsaw. Confronted with a Billy doll and a tape meant for her, Perez failed to heed Jigsaw's warning and the Billy doll's face exploded, severely injuring her face and neck with shrapnel. In Saw V it is implied that she had died from her injuries, her last words being "Detective Hoffman," leading to Strahm's initial suspicion regarding Hoffman. In Saw VI, Perez was revealed to be alive, though prominently scarred, and back on the Jigsaw investigation. Dismissive of Strahm being Jigsaw's accomplice, she and Dan Erickson investigated abnormalities in evidence found that implicated Strahm and a distorted tape made by Hoffman in creating his own trap. As soon as the tape was unscrambled, Hoffman quickly attacked, slashing Erickson's throat, using a technician as a human shield against Perez's gunshots, and fatally stabbing Perez. He then set the audio lab on fire to destroy the bodies and evidence.
Portrayed by Janet Land.
Morgan, a school teacher, appeared in Saw IV as the wife of Rex; a suspected physical abuser. Morgan and her daughter, Jane, refused to testify against him and so Rex could not be arrested. Morgan was later taken as part of Daniel Rigg's game, bound by several piercing-rods to her husband and instructed that she had to save herself, removing the rods but in doing so, killing her husband. Rigg found Morgan unconscious, having removed all but one rod, and handed her the key to free herself from her harness, instructing her to save herself (An alternate cut shows Rigg removing the last rod himself) before pulling the fire alarm to alert authorities to her location and leaving for his next test. When found by Peter Strahm and Lindsey Perez, Morgan stated that Rigg had saved her.
Peter Strahm
FBI Agent Peter Strahm.
Portrayed by Scott Patterson.
Appeared in: Saw IV, Saw V, Saw VI
Peter Strahm was an FBI Agent assigned to the Jigsaw case. Strahm was the first to theorize that Jigsaw may have had more than one apprentice and following the murder of Allison Kerry he became obsessed with stopping the killings. Pursuing Daniel Rigg as he engaged in his own game, Strahm eventually found Jigsaw and Amanda's corpses and killed Jeff Reinhart in self defense. Strahm continued his pursuit of the final apprentice but was captured and placed in a game set to kill him but managed to escape. Suspicious of Hoffman, Strahm continued his investigation but was crushed to death in a trap when he again failed to follow the rules. Hoffman later frames Strahm as the last apprentice, placing his mobile phone at a Jigsaw crime scene and using his recovered, severed-hand to place fingerprints on Jigsaw victims and traps. Though his partner Perez and boss Erickson both discover his innocence, they are murdered by Hoffman before they can act on the information and Hoffman once again plants his fingerprints at the scene, leaving Strahm as the suspected final Jigsaw apprentice.
Portrayed by Ron Lea.
Rex, a school teacher, was the abusive husband of Morgan and was also suspected of abusing his daughter, Jane. However, since neither Morgan nor Jane testified against him, he was never sentenced. Rigg ended up punching Rex after talking to his daughter about her bruises. Art, Rex's lawyer, threatened Rigg with a lawsuit but dropped the matter after Hoffman backed Rigg's claim of self-defense. Rex was later put into a test with his wife, in which he was doomed to die if Morgan tried to free herself. Rex bled to death as Morgan proceeded to try to escape.
Portrayed by Kevin Rushton.
Trevor appeared in Saw IV as a victim placed in a trap with Art Blank. He awoke with eyes sewn shut. He unknowingly had a key stuck to the back of his neck that would have freed both himself and Art. Trevor attacked Art thinking he was a threat, but Art killed Trevor, retrieved the key and saved himself from the device they were chained to. He appears later in a flashback leaving Jill's clinic before Cecil came to rob it.
Portrayed by Laura Gordon.
Appeared in: Saw V
Ashley was a test subject in a game in Saw V, which involved five participants. In the first room she was the first to wake up and comprehend what was happening, warning the other victims not to move. In the first game, Ashley was unable to get the key to free herself in time due to the rest of the group struggling to get their keys, which resulted in her being decapitated. It was later revealed that she was a fire inspector and she had taken a bribe to write a false report on a fatal-fire that Mallick set on the Nerve Gas House used in Saw II[12] , declaring it an accident, which later cost Ashley her job.
Portrayed by Julie Benz.
Brit was the victim of Jigsaw's game in Saw V. The Vice President of a real estate company, Brit was placed in a series of four traps along with four other people. The five victims believed that one person would have to die in each room in order for the others to move ahead; Brit fatally stabbed one of them herself in the third room. In the final room, though, she realized that the group could have worked together so that everyone would survive to the end. She and Mallick, the only other person to reach this point, determined that the members of the group were connected through a building fire, which she had orchestrated and which killed eight people. Brit and Mallick were forced to injure themselves severely in order to obtain enough blood to open the exit door. As she crawled from the room and Mallick passed out, Dan Erickson found her and called for medical assistance.
Portrayed by Carlo Rota.
Charles, a reporter, was a victim in the main game of Saw V alongside four other people. He was shown to be intelligent and to possess knowledge about the other victims and their mutual involvement in an arson scam. He attacked Mallick in two tests to obtain a key and ensure his survival but he was attacked by Luba with a metal bar, left to die as the other three victims moved to safety from the explosive devices in the room. Charles realized, too late, that the victims were supposed to work together and that they could have all survived the traps. The explosives detonated and killed Charles. Charles had been writing a report about the arson of the building Mallick burned down, and it was revealed that Mallick knew about it.
Dan Erickson
Portrayed by Mark Rolston
Appeared in: Saw V, Saw VI
Dan Erickson [13] was an FBI agent in charge of the Jigsaw case. He relieved Peter Strahm of duty following his narrow escape from a Jigsaw trap and grew increasingly wary of him as Strahm became obsessed with Jigsaw. After he was informed by Hoffman that Strahm believed there to be another Jigsaw accomplice, Erickson placed a trace on Strahm's mobile phone to find him. Going to the phones location, Erickson found a Jigsaw facility and a heavily injured Brit and Mallick, victims of a current game, before calling for paramedics. In Saw VI Erickson returned alongside Lindsey Perez, having helped her fake her death for her own safety, to investigate Strahm's apparent link to Jigsaw. As they investigated, Erickson and Perez displayed suspicion of Hoffman, believing evidence implicating Strahm had been planted.
Removing the distortion from the Jigsaw-style tape found at the Seth Baxter trap, Hoffman was revealed as the true accomplice, forcing him to lash out slicing open Erickson's jugular vein and stabbing Perez before burning their bodies. During the casting of Saw V, William Forsythe was approached to play Erickson, but turned it down due to scheduling conflicts[citation needed].
Luba Gibbs
Portrayed by Meagan Good.
Luba, a city planner, was a victim in the main game of Saw V, alongside four other people. Surviving the first trap, Luba assaulted Charles after he attacked Mallick, leaving Charles to die when explosive devices in the room detonated. Luba made it to the third game but she was stabbed in the neck by Brit who "didn't trust her" and her corpse was used as an electrical conductor to activate the door to the final trap. Luba was revealed to have played a role in an arson scam that killed eight people, an event that linked all the victims of the game. She had accepted bribes from a sports team owned by her father, Richard Gibbs, to allow a stadium to be built on the site of the building Mallick burned down.
Mallick
Portrayed by Greg Bryk.
Mallick, an arsonist and heroin-addict, was one of five victims in the most prominent game in Saw V. Suspicious of the other victims, Mallick managed to make it through most of the traps that were seemingly designed to kill off one of the victims per phase. He was saved by Luba in one test at the expense of Charles' life but she turned on him in another trap. Mallick was rescued by Brit who murdered Luba and the pair used Luba's corpse to complete that phase of the game. In the final test, Mallick understood his connection to the other victims was through an incident, orchestrated by Brit, in which he burned down a supposedly abandoned building, killing eight people and leaving him guilt-ridden. Mallick and Brit, realizing that the victims had been meant to work together to reach the final game, were forced to bi-sect their arms in a saw to provide enough blood to the device and end the game in time. The game over, Mallick passed out from blood loss as Brit crawled out of the room.
Pamela Easton-Jenkins
Portrayed by Samantha Lemole

She is kidnapped and placed at the end of William Easton's game. When William reaches the end, he is confronted by Pamela, who is revealed to be his sister, and the family of a man whose medical insurance had been denied by William, in part leading to his death. The man's son activates a device which kills William as Pamela watches. Pamela also appears in Saw: The Video Game, providing information to another journalist, Oswald McGullicuty, who planned to write a book and not credit Pamela. Knowing this, Pamela steals all his notes, preventing him from writing the book. Despite her relationship to William Easton, the game and films show her last name as Jenkins, leaving her surname unclear.
Seth Baxter
Portrayed by Joris Jarsky.
Seth Baxter was the boyfriend and murderer of Hoffman's younger sister. After serving five years of a life sentence in prison, he is released on a technicality. Hoffman, enraged by the death of his only family, kidnaps Seth and puts him in a trap that mimics Jigsaw's methods.

Portrayed by Janelle Hutchison and Shawn Ahmed.
Appeared in: Saw VI

Forced to suspend both victims, William was forced to choose Addy, dropping Allen's support, leaving him to be strangled to death with a barb-wire noose.
Tara Abbott and Brent Abbott
Portrayed by Shauna MacDonald and Devon Bostick.
Tara and Brent were the widow and teenage son of a man named Harold Abbott whose health insurance policy was revoked by William Easton on a technicality, contributing to his death. They were captured and placed in one of two cages at the end of William's series of tests, with Pamela Easton-Jenkins in the other. Once William reached the end, Tara and Brent were given the choice of sparing his life or ending it. Despite expressing anger for her husband's death, Tara listened to the pleas for mercy from both William and Pamela and could not bring herself to kill William. However Brent could not forgive him and triggered the device himself, causing a group of needles to swing down into William's back and inject him with hydrofluoric acid. Pamela, Tara, and Brent watched in horror as he dissolved from the inside out.
Carousel Room Victims
Portrayed by: James Gilbert (Aaron), Darius McCrary (Dave), Larissa Gomes (Emily), Melanie Scrofano (Gena), Shawn Mathieson (Josh), Karen Cliche (Shelby)
Aaron, Dave, Emily, Gena, Josh, and Shelby (collectively referred to as "the Dog Pit") were six of William Easton's junior associates, who did the investigative work to weed out health insurance applications and claims that should be denied. They were placed into the last of William's four tests, chained to a carousel and facing a shotgun. William could choose two of them to be saved, by pushing buttons that would drive spikes into his hands, while the other four would die. If he did nothing, all six would be killed. They argued and accused one another of trying to win William's favor as he struggled with his decisions. Ultimately he chose to save Emily, for having a family at home, and Shelby, because she has sick parents that she takes care of. Aaron, Gena, Dave, and Josh were left to die in that order. Aaron was the first to die, instead of a plea he simply stated that "I am the one who should live." Gena insisted that she was pregnant while the rest called her a liar. Dave tries to bribe William for his life. Josh became outraged and angry at William for choosing Shelby instead of him, criticizing him and shouting for William to look him in the eye as he prepared to die.
Portrayed by Caroline Cave.
Debbie was the attorney for Umbrella Insurance and William Easton. She was kidnapped and placed in William's game, bound to a device which would launch a spear through her head unless she reached the end of a steel-cage maze. William had to help her, diverting jets of scalding steam away from her path and onto himself, severely burning him. After reaching the end of the maze, she discovered that to escape the device she would need a key sewn into William's flesh. She attacked him with a nearby circular saw but was unable to retrieve the key before her time ran out; the device activated and killed her.
Portrayed by Gerry Mendicino.
Hank was a janitor for Umbrella Insurance, working for William Easton. He was kidnapped and placed in the first of William's four tests, suspended in a vice-like trap which would crush either his or William's chest, leaving only one survivor. Jigsaw informed them that every breath they took would cause the vice to tighten and that Hank was a heavy smoker, despite a history of health problems. Though William encouraged Hank to hold his breath he was unable to do so, breathing heavily until the vice crushed and killed him, freeing William.
Harold Abbott
Portrayed by George Newbern
Harold was the husband and father of Tara and Brent. Flashbacks throughout Saw VI reveal that his health insurance policy was revoked by William Easton due to a discrepancy found on his application, and he would later die from heart disease.

Simone and Eddie
Portrayed by Tanedra Howard and Marty Moreau.
Simone and Eddie, two predatory lending bankers, took part in a test in Saw VI in which they were placed in adjoining cells. Since they had figuratively extracted their "pound of flesh" from loan recipients who could never pay them back, they would literally have to do the same in order to survive. Each victim wore a head harness with screws poised at the temples, and had a knife and a meat cleaver on hand. A balance scale was placed between the two cells; whichever captive cut off the most weight in body parts and threw them onto the scale in 60 seconds would live, while the other would be killed by the screws boring into his/her skull. Eddie, being overweight, sliced several chunks of flesh from his stomach, but Simone severed her left arm and tipped the scale in her favor, leading to Eddie's death. Simone survived and was later questioned by Hoffman and the FBI in her hospital room.
William Easton
Portrayed by Peter Outerbridge.
William Easton was an insurance executive who was a target of Jigsaw's tests. The company William worked for was responsible for John Kramer's medical coverage which denied him funding for experimental treatment of his cancer and he had helped fund Jill Tuck's rehab clinic. William's tests involved him making similar decisions about who would live and die from his work life before a timer ran out or else he would be dismembered by explosives strapped to his limbs. Completing his tests, he discovered himself in a fifth test, which was not meant for him but for the surviving family of a man whose coverage had been canceled by William. Though his captured sister, Pamela Easton-Jenkins, persuaded the wife to spare William, her son activated the device which impaled William on a series of needles which pumped hydrofluoric acid into his body, dissolving his flesh and killing him.
