History
Edit
Willie's background before the events of the game is currently unknown.
During the plotEdit
It's also known that Willie loves bones. At one point he steals bones from Francis York Morgan leading to a sub quest which yields one of the most powerful weapons in the game as a reward.
Willie also proves his intelligence by rescuing Emily Wyatt from Thomas MacLaine and finding Francis York Morgan after the Raincoat Killer captures York.
OriginsEdit
The creator of Deadly Premonition Swery hinted that Willie has an elaborate background story which unfortunately wasn't included in the game. However one clue was left in: The roads of Greenvale are laid out to form Willie's silhouette.
Speculation on Willie's originEdit
Willie could be the physical representation of Greenvale. It seems like Willie doesn't know what Forrest Kaysen is up to in the same way Greenvale doesn't know about Kaysen's part in Greenvale's corruption. This would explain why Willie doesn't show any hostility toward his owner. The dots on Willie's fur may represent the corruption that lingers in the town.
There is also fan speculation that Willie belonged to Zach at some point and now follows Kaysen, who put Zach in the Red Room, so that he can free his master. This theory stems from Willie's ability to track York based only on the scent of his cigarettes, his attack on Thomas and the fact that he follows Zach out of town during the game's ending. There is, however, no hard evidence to support this theory.
Creator's answerEdit
Swery confirmed Willie's relevance, saying that Willie was Kaysen's keeper, and was giving out the orders from the Red Tree.
