Supporting Leader: Difference between revisions

Line 153:

* Takeda Shingen from ''[[Sengoku Basara]]'' a [[Hot-Blooded]] [[Cool Old Guy]] and mentor to one of the protagonists. Though not a main character, he is easily one of the most powerful and influential, and holds a lot of sway over Yukimura.

* [[The Ace|Flynn]] from ''[[Tales of Vesperia]]'' fits this trope, as he is always one step behind the heroes, providing them with aid as Captain of the knights.

** The [[~~Play Station~~ 3]] remake removes most of this however as now he generally meets up with the heroes in time and helps out for most of the end of chapter events, before joining the party for good towards the end.

** The [[PlayStation 3]] remake removes most of this however as now he generally meets up with the heroes in time and helps out for most of the end of chapter events, before joining the party for good towards the end.

* One could make a case for {{spoiler|Ocelot}} of the ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]'' series. {{spoiler|He'd been scheming to take down the Patriots, and without him as a diversion for the Patriots' wrath, it's questionable whether Snake and co would have lasted as long as they did, much less saved the day. And, yes, this was all according to Ocelot's plan.}}

** Snake himself is the Aragorn of ''Metal Gear Solid 2.'' Raiden gets the lion's share of the gameplay, but it is clear that he is inferior to Snake and Snake is busy being awesome off-screen.
