I wrote: Ash tries to get information about him, but finds little beyond his character class (Bishop) and level (13). Here we enter one of the language problems… the character classes are inspired by D&D and mostly match – Fighter, Thief, Mage… however the character class called Bishop in the movie would more normally be Cleric or Priest. However it gets more confused… while the film uses Bishop as a character class, it also uses it as name – we never find out the name of the person watching Ash; he’s always just referred to as Bishop or ‘a bishop’. There’s probably a nuance that’s been lost in the translation. Artur comments: Just to add to the confusion, the actor playing Bishop is Dariusz Biskupski . His second name is related to Bishop in Polish language. Biskup = Bishop. So you could translate it to Dariusz Bishopski.
