Below are the stories of the show's most influential characters, whose personal histories play a significant role in shaping decisions made on the island, including whether or not they would leave once an opportunity presented itself.

Leading Characters Who Left the Island

Jack Shephard

Being the group's doctor and all around alpha dog, Jack takes the reigns as leader once the need for one becomes apparent. Following the crash, he wakes up in the jungle and instinctively races to the aid of the survivors, performing procedures on the beach and calling people to action with chaos and carnage ensuing. Jack often feels compelled to sacrifice himself in pursuit of saving the lives of others, even to the detriment of his own health.

Jack's father, Christian, died in a car accident in Sydney, and his coffin accompanied Jack on the plane, which he finds on the island, but containing no body. Constantly haunted by memories of his father and his authoritative shadow, Jack finds it difficult to cope with the loss.

After leading the survivors through seemingly bizarre events throughout the series, Jack finds a way home via a helicopter and rescue boat, returning to Los Angeles and becoming increasingly aware over the next three years that he made a mistake leaving. Eventually, he travels back to the island, finding the friends he left behind living and working amongst the Dharma Initiative.
