"Rugby is attracting attention, but William Ellis, who claims to be the founder of this emerging sport, is being forgotten. Maybe the owner of Oletus Manor can offer him some help?"

Template:InfoSurvivor William Ellis, or the Forward, is one of 33 Survivors currently featured in Identity V.
Overview
When playing him, players can use the football to dash forward and knock the hunter off balance. The Forward will be stunned when exhausted.
If he pushes the hunter into an object, the hunter will be stunned for longer.
His decoding speed is slower than most survivors. His main job is to rescue survivors that are being carried by the hunter. Stunning the hunter into an object while the hunter carries a survivor will release the carried survivor.
He also has 10% increase in struggling speed if captured by the hunter, allowing him to free himself if carried by balloons.
Background
Rugby football is attracting attention, but William Ellis, who claims to be the founder of this new sport, is being forgotten. He joined a small rugby club, but not everything went his way. Can the owner of Oletus Manor help him?

Tips
Playing as:
- Use the ball when the Hunter is picking up a survivor (because during that animation the Hunter can't move to avoid the stun).
- Use the ball to reach a pallet only if the Hunter is chasing you and there aren't any other options.
- The Forward is a rescuer, so it's advisable to use Tide Turner.
Counter:
- When the Forward is approaching, immediately change directions to land a hit on him.
- The ball lost durability really fast, so if you aren't kiting, rescuing, balloon rescuing, just decode.
