  Aya Brea, from Parasite Eve

  The perfect mix of unsuspecting hero, chosen one, and bad ass. The sequel also gives her an Ellen Riply in Aliens vibe as well. Shame about 3rd Birthday and the fact we will never get another one. For those who don’t know, the owner of the original IP didn’t want to renew the license for the games, which means the games can no longer use anything from the novel which includes all references to mitochondria and Eve. That’s why 3rd Birthday was seemingly a totally different game; they tried to make a sequel that couldn’t reference any of the main plot points of the previous games or novel.

  Some of my other picks have already been mentioned so I’ll go with an obscure answer: Cpt. Olivia Rhodes from the VR game Lone Echo.

  She is by far the most realistic and immersive NPC I have ever had the fortune of experiencing. The storytelling and immersion in Lone Echo is S tier. The game itself is in my top three VR games with Half-Life Alyx and Boneworks.

  Shukran from Arabian Nights: Sabaku no Seirei Ou on the Super Famicom

  Ifrit is a djinn who was once the king of the djinn. Then he was cursed and bound to a ring until he granted the wishes of 1000 people. He’s granted wishes to 999 people when his ring comes into the possession of an orphan girl named Shukran. Over the years he’s become bitter and cynical, and he just expects she’s going to want gold or such, but instead, to his surprise and dismay, she wishes to bring peace to the land. And she means it. So Ifrit has to first set out to find and recruit the most powerful of his former djinn subjects, and since he can’t stray far from the ring, Shukran has to come along.

  She’s far and away the weakest character in the game, but at every turn, when it’s (eventually predictably) revealed that whichever djinn they’re trying to recruit at the moment has a well-deserved grudge against Ifrit and no intention of helping him with anything, it’s Shukran and her optimism, determination, honor and kindness that wins them over, and (after Shukran and Ifrit and their allies complete whatever trial or quest the djinn tasks them with) they end up swearing allegiance not to him, but to her. So while she herself remains ridiculously weak, she is very much the driving force behind the party. And over time she can summon more and more powerful djinn in battle, and they’re decidedly not weak.

  Rivet from the latest Ratchet and Clank game.

  Rivet

  Why? Two words:

  Big Hammer!

  I swear it looks bigger in game, but I haven’t played in a long while, so I could be misremembering.

  Robin from Iconoclasts:

  • Pacifist until the end (depending on the definition of “end”), despite the game’s pixel aesthetic it tries to make it clear that murder is her last option;
  • Altruistic, she goes out of her way to help people with complete disregard of her own safety;
  • Doesn’t talk much;
  • Kind hearted, doesn’t reject a well-intentioned yet spoiled acquaintance even though fucking up is his character arc and everyone hates him;
  • Plot spoiler

    becomes friends with Jesus and goes with him back to heaven

  • Ending spoiler

    fucking kills god, then fill him with seeds (tbf all the poor guy did was pull up at the gas station and have strangers harass Him)

  Gameplay? Xiangling (Genshin) - She does more damage.

  Story? Focalors / Furina - peak character and peak storytelling

  This silly meme tells you everything you need to know about Xiangling (apart from ‘every team becomes 10x better with XL in it’) and everything Furina wants you to know about her.
