Character Biographies are one of the two types of collectibles in Another Sight. They look identical to World Descriptions – they are blue orbs that are often either directly in your path or very obviously on screen waiting for you to collect them. There are 10 in total and here's the order they can be collected in:
-
Catherine Kit Nightingale – London Underground – At the very beginning of the game, walk left and you'll find this.
-
Mysterious Cat – London Underground – During the tutorial that teaches you how to climb as Hodge, you should see this on the top left of all the planks.
-
Simon Edison – London Sewers – After Kit moves a crate across the stage to block a steam pipe, walk past the ladder left of the steam pipe and stand on the pressure plate against the wall. Switch to Hodge and run as far left as possible (you may need to switch back to Kit to get the elevator back to Hodge's level). Hodge will run into a small grate into an area behind some bars and you can grab this memory.
-
Florence Nightingale – London Sewers – At some point, Kit will reach a machine that if she pulls the lever, she'll say it needs to be powered by another machine. Use Hodge to climb the nearby pipes and you'll see this collectible halfway up the area. This is the set of pipes that leads up to the small generator that Hodge must power by intimidating rats.
-
Claude Monet – Monet's Garden – After crossing over a bridge, switch to Hodge and run up a tree to reach some high wooden platforms. Make your way right across the platforms and you'll see this collectible on one of the lower platforms.
-
Helena Blavatsky – Laboratories – midway through the stage – right after riding up an elevator and jumping into a new room - Hodge can make a rectangular platform move across a large opening, by hitting a switch on a platform underneath and left of the opening. Once he does, use him to climb up the pipes and onto the platform. Ride the platform across to the right and pick up this collectible.
-
Nikola Tesla – Underworld Path – At the very beginning of the stage, simply walk left.
-
Thomas Edison – Underworld – After passing two guards, Kit will come to a cliff she can climb. Climb as far right and up as you can to get to a small ledge with this collectible on it.
-
Claude Debussy – Underworld – After some cliff climbing, you will get to a part where you will descend down some platforms that have guards on both ends. After the fourth guard (the second guard on the right side), use Hodge to climb the beams going under where the second guard on the right side is and you'll see this against the rocks. The game incorrectly calls this collectible Nikola Tesla.
- Jules Verne – Node – At the very beginning of the level, just run left as far as you can.
