== Anime and Manga ==
* Bob, one of the main supporting characters in ''[[Tenjho Tenge]],'' wears his hair in dreadlocks (though he cuts them off later). He's rebellious against school rules when first introduced, and is something of a [[Deadpan Snarker]], but at the same time he acts as a [[Blue Oni]] to Souichiro's [[Red Oni]].
Line 47 ⟶ 46:
 
== Literature ==
* ''[[Discworld]]'' characters Peachy in ''[[Discworld/Hogfather|Hogfather]]'' ("a huge man with dreadlocks and a beard you could keep goats in") and Dave (of Dave's Pin Exchange) in ''[[Discworld/Going Postal (Discworld)|Going Postal]]'' ("a huge bearded man with dreadlocks, a pin through his nose, a beer belly belonging to three other people and the words 'Death or Pins' tattooed on a bicep"). Race isn't mentioned for either of them, although Dave is played by a black actor in the TV adaptation of ''Going Postal'' (Peachy was cut from the adaptation of ''Hogfather''). Religion isn't mentioned either, although it's ''[[Wild Mass Guessing|possible]]'' the Disc has some [[Crystal Dragon Jesus|Crystal Dragon Selassie]] equivalent.
 
== Live -Action TV ==
* Barrington in ''[[Maid Marian and Her Merry Men]]''. Specifially described as a Rasta on several occasions, [[Anachronism Stew|despite living centuries before Rastafarianism existed]]. He sometimes acts as a sort of narrator for the ongoing events.
* Dave Lister in ''[[Red Dwarf]]''. Not a Rastafarian - he's either an atheist or a pantheist. Not to mention being a deity in his own right to a lost race evolved from his pet cat.
