Unidentified female characters



There are unidentified female characters who are mentioned in various instances throughout The Beginner's Guide, with one of them briefly appearing. They may or may not be all the same person.

Mentions and appearances
There is not any evidence that these all refer to the same woman character, or that Coda is female - whom Davey always refers to as male. However, there is also no proof to the contrary - and Davey is eventually found to be an unreliable narrator, which, even though vague, makes all these interpretations legitimate.
 * In Whisper, the voice who talks to the player and asks them to sacrifice is female.
 * In Backwards, the text about past and future mentions a female person.
 * In Theater, a scene is focused on a woman who is a professional photographer of animals.
 * In Island, a woman is crying and covering her face in the same room seen in Escape, behind iron bars.
 * This is the only character in the game that doesn't appear with a blockhead - which could be a sign that this is one of Davey's modifications to the game.
 * In Machine, the player is referred to as "ma'am", suggesting they are a woman.

Trivia

 * The trailer shows game .exe files, and one of them is called "Jennifer" (at 0:31). She does not appear in the game however.
