I don't know who first suggested this -- Jof and/or Purgatory, probably -- but someone noticed a redheaded girl in the trailer and thought she might be Claris.

I was skeptical at first, but then I posted this side-by-side:

And I was convinced, just like that. If the girl at the right isn't Claris herself, the character designers are giving her a hell of an homage.

Come to think of it, we never got to see any of Claris' friends in NiD. We got to see Elliot's teammates -- not to mention his rivals -- but we never got a glimpse of Claris' social standing. Could Claris have been friends with Helen this whole time?

And if this is Claris, where does Elliot come in? How will he be recognizable without such strikingly blue hair (they tempered Claris' pink hair, so Elliot's blue hair will have to be modified as well)?

So, what do you think? Is that girl our Claris or not? And if so, what could that mean for the storyline?

If it isn't Claris herself, that's a REALLY close resemblance. I think it may just be a purely image cameo, or it may be Claris herself. My vote is still out on her. Though if they have a Claris cameo, one must wonder where Elliot is.

As for the storyline, if Helen and Claris are indeed friends, and that's her, they may end up doing a two/four kids thing for the last boss battle as they did in the first game, assuming William and Elliot are in on it. Or they may have a bonus skin of Helen and William being replaced by Claris and Elliot.

Yeah thats no coincidence. She is definately made to look like Claris. I don't think it actually is her though because it wouldn't work with the whole Twin Seeds/Bellbridge thing. Unless Bellbridge is in the past and this is Claris' mother or something?
I think it's more of a nod towards the fans of the original, so we can see what she would look like in these new glorious FMVs ^^

And I think if "Elliot" appears he'll probably have black hair.

As i said in the trailer topic, i think it's more homage than anything else. For Claris to be that specific character would mean Twin Seeds and probably her encounter with NiGHTS no longer exists...and i can't quite imagine Sega would cameo a character from a previous game in a way that would mean she holds no importance anymore.

Um....
This topic's title says "Helen cameo", not "Claris cameo".
Everybody, get on topic.
I don't think Helen will be cameod in JoD, I think she'll be the main focus along with Will, NiGHTS, and Reala. (and possibly Wizeman) :lol:

Um.. is there a problem? I don't know if you're kidding, but even the the title may have been typoed, reading Curiosity's original post tells you its about Claris..

Anyway, I was trying to say, before my net cut out (so I dont' know if it posted) that I also think it may be a homage to her. That girl, in my opinion, is definitely influenced by Claris. XD

I have to say, I certainly thought it was a Claris cameo when I saw it.

But now I'm not so sure... *ponders*

I'd say that looks like a Claris. As happymaking as this is, though, it sort of points out that Claris and, more than likely, Elliot, aren't going to be, playing any major, if any, role in the, story,line,. (Aah! So many commas!)

Like the others have said, without a doubt that looks just like a "realistic" version of Claris. So it's either her herself, or they just through someone in who looks just like her for the older fans to see. I mean, even her eyes are the same color, which isn't a natural eye color in the first place.

Heh, she looks a lot like me when I was younger :o (bar the pink eyes, of course)

=3 Helen looks funny what with her fancy frilly clothes, and the other two are just wearing sweater type things.

This cutscene actually takes place in a dream, doesn't it? Shortly after, some glass should break, and Helen's mom (a Nightmaren desguised as her...) will begin the child beating of a life-time...until of course NiGHTS comes in.

Hadn't noticed that. But in my opinion, what stands out most is the fact that Helen is wearing pink and her friends are wearing solid white. Helps Helen stand out a bit more.

There's no guarantee that this flashback takes place in a dream. It's possible and quite probable, but it shouldn't be taken for granted just yet.

Anyway, there's only one way the dream sequence can possibly end and it goes something like this:

Maybe SEGA will do total fanservice and 2 the second player for 2 player co op will be Reala and the dreamers Reala fuses with are Claris and Elliot?

Yeh, not happening, but it would be nifty.

I think that maybe it is a family member of Claris. It could in all reality be either Claris' mother or grandmother (game is set in the past) or it could be Claris' daugther (game is set in the future). It is a striking resemblance though. You people's got good eyes. I never would have caught that. :)

Sup all, I've been lurking here for a bit. I think I actually noticed something on the new tokyo gameshow videos no one else has caught yet. That or, you know, eveyone caught it and it's so GLARINGLY obvious that I'm gonna sound like a prick annoucing it. Whatever.

So yes, about the whole 'Claris cameo' thing. I think we get to see elliot's cameo too :P

Oooh, that Eliot one, that looks completely like him! I would never have found that one. And on the Claris one, I was laughing at the idea it was her, until I saw them side by side... it really does look like Claris. It's pretty much perfect, haha. Only thing missing is th eyecolour... And isn't that sweater thing a little similar to her stage dress at the end of the original?

My-my, the Elliot one does look like him. But for the suspected Claris cameo, I really don’t think it’s her.

But for the Elliot one, if it is really an Elliot cameo, why is he playing soccer/football?

Unless one of my greatest fears have come true and the re-written everything so that the first game never happened! (I know someone already said that,!^^’ Sorry I forgot your username!)

Many people have speculated that this game may be a complete remake. But we do not know. In fact, we have heard the game be reffered to as a sequal and remake. So we do not know for sure.

Also, that does look just like Elliot. I was sceptical about the whole Clairs idea, but now that I see Elliot in there I think it is true. They may not be a part of the game, but at least they made a cameo apperance.

I think SonicTeam just put these two cameos for the fans. It's probably best to think of this game as another tale altogether, unless proven otherwise. They just put Claris and Elliot in the crowd for people like us to point out, to show that they havn't forgotten.

I hope that original kids/NiGHTS costume models will be unloackable in this.

Perhaps its a prequel, and Elliot used to play soccer before moving on to basketball. :lol:

Lots of kids play all kinds of sports. Claris mistook the ice cream for a microphone. :lol: No, seriously, I don't think it matters where they stuck them, they just slipped them in for us to catch, I think. And if it isn't them, then they weren't very creative with their kid designs. But everyone's been saying that thanks to the new kids anyway. XD

Thanks, EZEKiAL. That's what I continuously try to say these days. XD Even though they're new, they seem to be being warped into the old ones, just because they're similar. Its... kinda annoying. :/ Sure, they're similar, but its reminding me of the Simpsons, where you find out Principal Skinner just took the identity of a man named Skinner. Although he looked absolutely nothing like him, his mom squinted her eyes and said "Yes! You're Seymor! You're younger and not as fat... YES! You must be him!" and then proceeded to tell him where Seymor's room was in the house. :(

I wanna believe it, even though I know its not true!! *Shovels it down everyone's throat*
