Heather Mason

Heather Mason is the main protagonist of Silent Hill 3. She is the reincarnation of Alessa Gillespie and Cheryl Mason, and the adopted daughter of the original Silent Hill protagonist, Harry Mason.

Before Heather was born, a cult in the town of Silent Hill, Maine impregnated the psychic child Alessa Gillespie with the fetus of their God so that he could be born and bring their horrific version of paradise to humanity. During the ritual, Alessa suffered significant burns, causing her soul to split into two halves - one remaining in her charred body, while the other manifested as the baby Cheryl found on the side of the road by Harry Mason. Seven years later, Harry and Cheryl returned to Silent Hill on vacation, causing the two souls to reunite and allowing the birth of the God to occur. Harry was able to stop the deity, but the ritual was too much for the now whole Alessa. As she lay dying, she was reincarnated as a baby saved by Harry during the ordeal.
