Character Archetypes
#1
Alright, its more a random thought than anything else, but I'm going to put up a list of character archetypes, and people fill it. I'll try to update this depending if it picks up or not.
Thing is, there are so many stories that grab from or are inspired from each other that I figured it might be interesting just HOW common a trait it.

Lets try to keep this in gaming, as in there is a game with this character. (Anime games etc. are fine)
Example:
Hero of Time
Link : Ocarina of Time
Crono : Chrono Trigger

If you have a suggestion for archetypes that are seen a lot in games, throw them out there.
Also, you can add to other archetypes.
