Embedded the official character portrait
11Zoe De Vera is a Supervisory Special Agent in the Federal Bureau of Control, introduced for Control Resonant, and Dylan Faden's handler throughout the campaign. She is Dylan's primary radio contact, his operator on field deployments, and one of the human anchors that keep him tethered while paranatural forces destabilise Manhattan around him. For wider context, see the Overview.22Quick Profile45FieldDetailRoleSupervisory Special Agent; Dylan's handlerFunctionIn charge of the FBC's field teams in the Manhattan areaIntroduced inControl Resonant (new character)Portrayed byFrankie KevichRelationship to DylanWorking partnership; primary point of contact between Dylan and the FBC command structure67Role Inside the FBC78Zoe De Vera works inside the Federal Bureau of Control as a Supervisory Special Agent, the agent placed in charge of the Bureau's field teams across the Manhattan area. In the Resonant timeline, the agency is in crisis: the lockdown at the Oldest House has failed, Director Jesse Faden is missing, and the chain of command around that absence has not been publicly clarified. Zoe's role is one of the working pieces of the structure that remains intact: a field operator who can run an active deployment in the affected Manhattan zones.910Her job is not in-the-field combat. She is the radio side of operations: feeding Dylan agency context, coordinating his movements between zones, and serving as the FBC voice that arrives in his ear when he is on the ground. The role is structurally similar to a control-room operator in other action games, but it is foregrounded in Resonant because Dylan, the agency's longest-held containment subject, is operating outside the building for the first time.1112That does not make the job a desk assignment. The role carries real authority: she decides how field teams are tasked in an active containment zone, and the material around her describes work she is good at and enjoys, complicated by the bureaucracy of a large federal agency pressing on every decision. She is senior enough for her calls to matter and junior enough to be overruled, which is a large part of what makes her useful as a narrative counterweight to Dylan Faden.1314Relationship with Dylan1516Dylan and Zoe's working relationship is one of the campaign's narrative anchors. Dylan spent essentially his entire life inside the Oldest House as a long-term containment subject, designated Prime Candidate 6. He is operating outside the building for the first time as an adult, and he is doing it while paranatural forces previously sealed inside the House are loose in the city. Zoe is the FBC voice that meets him in that situation.1718Pre-launch material has framed her as both an operational handler and a human counterweight. Where the Aberrant and Dylan's paranatural abilities push him deeper into the paranatural side of the agency's catalog, Zoe is the ordinary side of the relationship. The campaign uses that contrast: cosmic forces outside, a human voice on the line.1920Anchor, Not Sidekick2122Pre-launch coverage frames Zoe as more than a mission briefer. She is described as the person who pulls Dylan out of his coma at the start of the campaign and as the field handler who keeps him oriented as Manhattan's reality continues to shift. In public press she is positioned as the emotional anchor that holds Dylan's humanity in place against the cosmic pressure of the Pattern, as much as she is the radio voice telling him where to go next. Their working relationship is one of the load-bearing character beats of Resonant's story.2324Voice and Performance2526Zoe De Vera is portrayed by Frankie Kevich. Dylan Faden is played by Sean Durrie and Jesse Faden by Courtney Hope, who also played her in the first game. All three appeared alongside Matthew Porretta, the voice of Dr. Casper Darling, on a cast panel at San Diego Comic-Con on July 25, 2026, where the actors discussed their characters and the work behind them.2728Where Players Meet Zoe2930Zoe is positioned as a constant presence rather than a one-mission appearance. She is Dylan's handler across field deployments, which makes her one of the campaign's recurring voices rather than a one-zone NPC. Specific in-game scenes she appears in, story branches she affects, and her end-state at the close of the campaign have not been publicly disclosed.3132Unconfirmed Details3334Zoe's pre-Resonant career inside the agency.Whether she operates from inside the Oldest House, from a mobile command point, or from another fixed FBC location.Her relationship (if any) to other named FBC personnel from the first game.Specific story branches that turn on Zoe's choices.Her end-state at the close of the campaign.Whether her role evolves between the first playthrough and New Game Plus.3536This page will be updated as more is revealed.
