Cybil Bennett is a police officer from Brahms, a town neighboring Silent Hill. She is sent to Silent Hill to investigate her precinct's lack of communication with the Silent Hill Police and is unwittingly drawn into its strange world.

Before entering the town, you saw Cybil riding by on her motorcycle while you were driving with your daughter. Shortly before crashing your Jeep, you spot the bike again, lying abandoned by the roadside. Cybil also crashed due to Alessa Gillespie's astral projection.

After being ambushed by monsters in the town, you had yourself inside a cafe with Cybil, and her reaction was of concern and care.

”Woah! Another person here in Silent Hill? Least I know I’m not alone in this place… what’s your name, friend?”
