Line 99:
* Haldeth of ''The Master of Whitestorm'' played this role when in Korendir's company. When apart, Korendir's story was always told in third-person.
* The narrator in Aphra Behn's ''Oroonoko'' doesn't even get a name, even though we're clearly supposed to identify her with Behn herself. Either way Behn spends pretty much the entire novella gushing over the enslaved title character's nobility and strength (to the point where the subtext rapidly starts becoming . . . text) and describing events she couldn't possibly have seen (specifically events occurring in West Africa before Oroonoko and his beloved Imoinda were enslaved, and therefore the narrator would have been halfway around the planet from).
* The narrator of many of [[Damon Runyon]]'s stories -- such as "Butch Minds the Baby" -- is clearly present for all of the action, but rarely ''does'' anything more than relate what everyone else did around him.
