''Guns of the Patriots'' is one giant [[Continuity Nod]] and has appearences by almost every major character in the series, some of which have radically changed in appearence and personality. Regardless, tropes for those characters should go in the character pages for the games they debuted in, not here. This is for characters that first appeared in ''Guns of the Patriots'' only. That includes Raiden, Revolver Ocelot, and the Patriots. For pages they all appear on, see:
* [[Metal Gear
* [[Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake
* [[Metal Gear Solid
* [[Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
* [[Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater
* [[Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops
* [[Metal Gear Solid Peace Walker
* [[Metal Gear Acid (Video Game)/Characters|Metal Gear Acid]]
* [[Metal Gear Ghost Babel
== Sunny Gurlukovich ==
{{quote|
The daughter of Olga Gurlukovich. Raiden rescued her from the Patriots and dropped her off with Otacon and Solid Snake, who raised her onboard their giant airplane headquarters. Sunny is a computer programming genius, but lacks social and cooking skills due to her sheltered upbringing.
Line 27 ⟶ 23:
* [[Has Two Mommies|Has Two Daddies]]: With Snake and "Uncle Hal".
* [[Lethal Chef]]: Sunny keeps cooking eggs for Otacon and Snake, but they're usually either over or undercooked, and both of them are constantly coming up with excuses to not eat them. This is somewhat out-of-character for the former Green Beret Solid Snake, given what you're expected to eat during SERE. He must be getting picky in his old age.
* [[Missing Mom]]
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: She completed FOXALIVE with the purpose of destroying the AI network of the Patriots while at the same time keeping key societal factors intact. Going by what is being shown in ''Rising'', she really should have just destroyed the Patriots outright, as the FOXALIVE option she chose actually made things even worse than before.
* [[Speech Impediment]]: Sunny has a slight stutter.
== Drebin {{spoiler|893}} ==
{{quote|
A gun launderer in Metal Gear Solid 4 who replaces ID chips in guns so that they can be used by anyone, for money. {{spoiler|He reveals at the end that he was hired by the patriots to help Snake and Rat Patrol defeat Liquid Ocelot.}}
Line 42 ⟶ 38:
* [[Badass Longcoat]]
* [[Cool Shades]]
* [[Dark
* [[
* [[Finger
* [[Honest
* [[Jerk
* [[Non
* [[The Starscream]]: {{spoiler|Sort of: Drebin was an agent of the Patriots, but he then reveals that he wasn't upset with Otacon or Snake at all for taking the Patriots [[A Is]] offline. On the contrary, he thanked them, as it allowed him and his fellow Drebins to form their own business.}}
* [[Soul Brotha]]
Line 54 ⟶ 50:
== The Beauty and the Beast Unit ==
A unit composed of four insane, power-armored young women codenamed: Laughing Octopus, Crying Wolf, Raging Raven and Screaming Mantis. Ocelot's elite forces in ''Metal Gear Solid 4''.
* [[Amazon Brigade]]
* [[Animal Motifs]]
Line 62 ⟶ 58:
* [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]: Implied by Big Boss noting that the technology used to seal away his will in addition to his body was similar to the type used to pacify the B&B Corps.
* [[Break the Cutie]]: Each and every single one of the B&B girls suffered this before becoming one.
* [[Dark Action Girl
* [[Fan Nickname]]: In-Universe, they are referred to as SNAKEHOUND due to their fascination in wanting to kill Snake.
* [[Flunky Boss]]: Raging Raven and Cryin Wolf both have soldiers help them, while Screaming Mantis forces people to help her.
* [[Four
* [[Four
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: Every one of the Beauties.
* [[Gorgeous Gorgon]]: The B&Bs embody this trope in both the physical sense and the mental one. The first one, Laughing Octopus, is probably the best example; after her armor falls off, she babbles and giggles some more, the camera deliberately avoiding her face... before revealing she's absolutely stunning. In the mental sense, each of the B&Bs reveals a sliver of humanity beneath their psychosis and a desire to be free of the need to kill.
Line 83 ⟶ 79:
** Raging Raven owes most of her inspiration to The Fury, who also flew around and blew up your hiding places. Instead of being surrounded by mostly-aesthetic crows like Vulcan Raven, though, she's got dozens of copies of her wing-units surrounding her, making her fight a needle-in-a-haystack fight.
** And finally, Screaming Mantis is a return to the mind-screw of Psycho Mantis; Instead of psychically flinging objects around, she throws a room full of ''people'' at you, since she can [[People Puppets|manipulate their bodies like puppets.]]
* [[Shout
* [[Spy Catsuit]]: Their outfits under the armor.
** Note that originally, the Laughing Beauties were intended to be stark naked, but that would have given MGS4 an AO rating beyond a doubt, and they weren't even allowed to have their motion actors do it in the nude. Suffice to say, the [[Spy Catsuit]] was a result of this problem.
Line 91 ⟶ 87:
* [[Voice of the Legion]]: Their armored forms combine a male and female voice, but only when they're in their suits.
* [[Where I Was Born and Razed]]
* [[
* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]
=== Laughing Octopus ===
{{quote|
A woman who was forced to kill her family by a cult and pretend to enjoy it. She attacks with giant metal tentacles and advanced camouflage.
----
* [[Combat Tentacles]]
* [[Laugh
* [[Precision F
* [[Shapeshifter Guilt Trip]]: Laughing Octopus pulls one during her boss fight after you damage her enough. Actually, a bunch of the forms she takes mock you in one way or another; she even rips off Snake's own signature move by hiding within a cardboard box at one point.
=== Raging Raven ===
{{quote|
A woman who was kidnapped by soldiers as a child and beaten daily. She escaped with the help of some ravens and slaughtered her captors and the civilians they had kidnapped. Her mech allows her to fly and shoot missles.
Line 116 ⟶ 112:
=== Crying Wolf ===
{{quote|
A woman who accidentally smothered her baby brother when he was crying while hiding from genocidal soldiers. She went insane and murderd all the children in a refugee camp, and blamed it on a wolf she hallucinated. Her mech allows Wolf to travel very quickly, and she is an excellent sniper.
Line 126 ⟶ 122:
=== Screaming Mantis ===
{{quote|
The leader of the Beauty and the Beast Unit. As a child Screaming Mantis was locked in the basement of a torture dungeon and had to live off the polluted water and dead bodies in there, driving her insane. When Snake fights her she is {{spoiler|possessed by the ghost of Psycho Mantis}}. She attacks with two puppets that can control the nanomachines inside everyone.
----
* [[Demonic Possession]]: Variation: Although the ending of the battle implies that {{spoiler|Psycho Mantis possessed her}}, it's not so much that {{spoiler|Mantis's spirit actually possessed her}} as it was that Screaming Mantis was injected with nanomachines that contained {{spoiler|portions of Psycho Mantis' psyche}}.
* [[Hoist
* [[Human Shield]]: Screaming Mantis is fond of this; she can telekinetically float the bodies of people and control them, and will often use an entire roomful of people to block your bullets.
* [[Marionette Motion]]: Mantis' attack.
