Characters
- Robert Langdon: A professor at Harvard University, Robert Langdon teaches Symbology. When brought to Jacques Sauniere's dead body by the police, however, his job is put aside as he is thrown into a world of mystery and danger. It is usually from his point of view that the player goes through the game.
- Sophie Neveu: Sophie Neveu works for the French police in the cryptography department. Supposedly the granddaughter of Jacques Saunière (although this is later proved to be untrue), she rushes to aid Robert Langdon in the quest to uncover the reason behind her grandfather's murder. She helps throughout the game by providing useful hints, and some sections of the game are played through her point of view.
- Silas: A murderer from a very young age, Silas was eventually caught by police and sent to prison. Once free, he was taken in by a priest of Manus Dei, Manuel Aringarosa. From here, he found his purpose in life, and set out to destroy the secret that the Priory of Sion have worked so hard to protect. He is one of the key enemies that the player must try to escape.
- Bezu Fache: Bezu Fache is a French police officer who happened to find Jaques Sauniere's body in the grand art gallery of the Musée du Louvre. He suspects that Robert Langdon is guilty of Jaques Saunière's murder. He travels from France to London, trying to find Robert Langdon and Sophie Neveu.
- Jacques Saunière: Jaques Saunière was a seventy-three year old man who was a member of the Priory of Sion. He was murdered by Silas in the Grand Art Gallery, in the Louvre. It is ultimately revealed that his job was to protect Sophie Neveu, as she was the only surviving blood relative of the historical Jesus.

Famous quotes containing the word characters:
“The major men
That is different. They are characters beyond
Reality, composed thereof. They are
The fictive man created out of men.
They are men but artificial men.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“I cannot be much pleased without an appearance of truth; at least of possibility—I wish the history to be natural though the sentiments are refined; and the characters to be probable, though their behaviour is excelling.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
“The naturalistic literature of this country has reached such a state that no family of characters is considered true to life which does not include at least two hypochondriacs, one sadist, and one old man who spills food down the front of his vest.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
