Line 126:
* Elan, from ''[[The Order of the Stick]]''. Clueless, but concerned for the rest of the group, and skilled in <s>Social-Fu</s> Trope-Fu. Idealistic to a fault, occasionally ''[[The Load]]'' and a ''[[Spoony Bard]]'' to top it off, but he's a genuinely nice guy. Heck, you could make a case that he's the one person that everyone else on the team likes.
** Haley sums it up very well in a recent comic.

* Dave, in ''[[College Roomies from Hell]]''. [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] when the others vote Dave out of NOES. Marsha says "I can't believe how MEAN you guys are being. Dave is our moral compass. We NEED him." To turn him into [[The Zeppo]], The author, Maritza Campos, decided to [[Nerf]] his power but leave him as the most earnest, conscience-stricken and foolishly brave character. It's somewhat self-referential, as she killed off Dave but brought him back because her readers said that for all his flaws he was the "heart" of the series.
* Nathan Hale from ''[[The Dreamer]]''. Also Beatrice.
