Waylon Park

"But there's no way in hell he's stopping me from getting out of this godforsaken place. I'm coming home, Lisa."

- Waylon, Jeremy Blaire note.

Waylon Park is a character from the Outlast fandom.

Character
Waylon Park is a software engineer, working for the Murkoff Corporation at Mount Massive Asylum for the Criminally Insane. Upon witnessing first hand Murkoff's cruelty to its patients being treated as test subjects, Waylon decides to become a whistleblower by emailing freelance investigative journalist, Miles Upshur, of the inhumane acts and other illegal activities taking place.

Throughout his writing, Waylon reveals his character: he is a gentle man, caring only about surviving to see his family. Nearly all notes he writes mentions his wife, showing how much he cares and loves her, as well as their two children. Due to his circumstances, he contemplates suicide, believing it will be a fate better than death at the hands of the patients/inmates of the asylum. He never goes through with it, as he wants to get back to his family. The only times Waylon looses his gentle nature is when he's trying not to laugh upon seeing the death of Eddie Gluskin, and his comments about leaving Jeremy Blaire to die to his injuries, the two people who have arguably caused Waylon the most pain and trauma.

Canon
Lisa Park

It's unknown how Waylon and Lisa met, though at some point they married, had two sons and lived in Boulder, Colorado until they moved to Leadville, Colorado for Waylon's new workplace at Mount Massive Asylum for the Criminally Insane, working for the Murkoff Corporation. Not long into Waylon's employment, Mount Massive Asylum is massacred from within, staff and patients alike. As Waylon fights for his life, he writes notes to/about Lisa expressing his love for her and their children, in addition to how Waylon knows that should he not survive the asylum, he believes Lisa will fight Murkoff tooth and nail. He does survive and immediately rushes home to his family. With Murkoff most likely on him, they flee, not before burning down their home.

Fanon
Eddie Gluskin

Waylon is an employee for the Murkoff Corporation, working as a software engineer at Mount Massive Asylum for the Criminally Insane, while Eddie is a patient/test subject. On route to one experiment, Eddie manages to escape the guards and runs to Waylon, begging him for help. Disgusted with Murkoff's cruelty, but unable to help Eddie, Waylon does his job and leaves. That same night, Mount Massive Asylum is massacred from within, staff and patients alike. Eddie escapes and becomes a feared man to come across within the walls of the asylum. He spots Waylon and insists on making him his "bride," delusionally thinking he and Waylon are in love and how Waylon will bare his children. Waylon fights for his life and manages to kill Eddie in the same trap Eddie tries to kill Waylon in when Waylon defies him one too many times.

Miles Upshur

Miles and Waylon never have any direct contact with each other. Miles is a freelance investigative journalist who Waylon whistleblows to by emailing Miles about the inhumane acts/illegal activity happening at Mount Massive Asylum for the Criminally Insane. Miles and Waylon are both at Mount Massive Asylum for a period of time. They briefly cross paths without knowing the other is there. At the end of Outlast: Whistleblower, Waylon is saved by Miles infused with the Walrider. He is able to escape the asylum by driving off in Miles' jeep.
