A soft-spoken loner, Roy is a paramedic who is partnered with fellow Paramedic Duke and he is the one who has been impersonating the mass murderer Jason Voorhees. Though many consider Roy a pointless villain, he arguably contributed to Jason's resurrection, as his masquerading as Jason while killing people likely contributed to Tommy's further nightmares of Jason and his eventual decision to uncover his grave in an attempt to burn the body. He was resurrected in 2025 by evil entities. In the novelization of the movie, it is heavily implied that Jason's spirit partially possessed Roy by taking advantage of his powerful need for revenge. This also caused him to inherit some of Jason's notable mannerisms as well as his superhuman strength and durability.
