Notas del jugador
Francis Sinclair, que se hace llamar Frank, vive solo en una pequeña cabaña de Big Valley, a las afueras de Strawberry. Es un coleccionista de hablar acelerado, pelo pelirrojo, bigote fino y una gran marca de nacimiento sobre el ojo derecho. Se acerca al protagonista con una petición extraña. Francis busca diez petroglifos repartidos por el país y quiere conocer su ubicación. Ofrece pagar por la información, pero no aclara por qué le importan tanto esas tallas.
Mientras el protagonista encuentra los petroglifos y le manda sus ubicaciones por correo, Francis no vuelve a aparecer. Cuando recibe todos los informes, envía una invitación para regresar a la cabaña. El protagonista llega y descubre que Francis se ha ido. En su habitación hay documentos, bocetos y diagramas que revelan una obsesión con los viajes en el tiempo. Entre ellos aparecen personas cruzando portales, junto a imágenes que parecen ciudades, rascacielos, un átomo y una explosión nuclear.
Entonces entra una mujer con su hijo recién nacido, que también se llama Francis. Es Mrs. Sinclair, y el niño tiene la misma marca de nacimiento sobre el ojo derecho que el coleccionista adulto. El protagonista no logra explicar lo que ve. Cuando Mrs. Sinclair le pregunta su nombre, decide que no importa y se marcha, dejando a la madre y al bebé en la cabaña.
Curiosidades
- ◆Francis Sinclair has a strong Transatlantic accent, which was particularly prominent in American culture during the 1920s and 1930s. The fact that he was an infant in 1899-1907 further suggests this.
- ◆Sinclair's Business Card's logo has an hourglass with wings on it, symbolizing time and travel respectively. This reinforces the idea that he is a time traveler.
- ◆Further reinforcing the time traveler hypothesis is his possession of pants with belt loops. These types of pants were not invented until 1922, although they are featured often in the sequel (which takes place primarily in 1911).
- ◆From his unique birthmark, players may deduce that he is a reference to Kraff, a deity worshiped by the Epsilon Program from Rockstar North's Grand Theft Auto series, another franchise published by Rockstar Games. However, the character's portrayal and background contradicts every aspect of the Epsilon Program (red birthmark, prohibited red hair, time travel science (general relativity), contradictory years with Epsilonism's creation, setting in an unrelated universe, etc.), making the possibility of being a reference unlikely and simply a coincidence.
- ◆Regardless, his unique birthmark is never employed for any religious purpose; rather, it is designed to serve as a plot device for a more significant revelation during his last on-screen encounter, allowing the player to easily identify him in his "second form."
- ◆The character of Francis Sinclair appears to draw heavy inspiration from Scottish history. ‘Sinclair’ comes from the ancient Scottish form of the original French de Saint-Clair, and Henry Sinclair—an Earl of Orkney, nobleman, and Templar Knight in medieval Scotland—is a particularly interesting figure to consider. According to folklore, Henry Sinclair traveled to the American continent nearly a century before Christopher Columbus did. But some legends even claim he left behind stone carvings and markings throughout what are now Massachusetts and Maine, long before those regions were officially discovered. And in the game, the player is tasked by Francis Sinclair with finding evidence of ancient peoples in several rock formations which are scattered all over the country.
- ◆Supporting this historical interpretation is the fact that Rockstar North is located in Edinburgh, Scotland.
- ◆Francis also shares numerous similarities with Ernest Keigel, a fictional time traveler who stars in the Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories radio program The Time Ranger:
- ◆Both have Transatlantic accents.
- ◆Both are fast talkers.
- ◆Both use 1920s and 1930s slang and are implied to have lived within the time period.
- ◆His cabin does not appear on the map.
- ◆The strange mural that Sinclair put together seems to have been inspired by a Diego Rivera fresco — Man, Controller of the Universe painted in 1934 for the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City — which illustrates the aspects of contemporary social and scientific culture of the 1930s. But the similarities end there; one painting's meaning is time travel and the other's politics.
- ◆In the game files, the model of baby Francis Sinclair is actually an object named " prop_stuntdoll_01 ", which likely implies that during MOCAP recordings Mrs. Sinclair's voice actress used a prop instead of an actual baby.
- ◆The texture for the baby exhibits a tag located on the back of his neck, though this cannot be seen in normal gameplay.
