CCRB RECORD No. 0055
Dead Rising
Determination: Implied — Corruption 2, Blasphemy 1
An optional boss is a cult leader mid-sacrifice who calls you a nonbeliever and preaches salvation through purging tainted blood.
The first Dead Rising contains a sustained religious set piece the combined record never surfaced. The True Eye cult, whose yellow-raincoated followers roam the mall, is led by Father Sean Keanan. Frank first finds him in Paradise Plaza about to run a woman through with a ceremonial sword, announcing that the end of the world is upon them, that death has defiled the world, and that the only path to salvation of the soul is the purging of tainted blood. Spotting Frank photographing the rite, he calls him a nonbeliever in their midst and orders his death. The later encounter in Colby's Movieland has Keanan performing rituals before an idol with five hostages present; a hidden photo opportunity catches him praying. He dies pierced through the eye by his own sword.
