Line 108:
* Lucca from ''[[Chrono Trigger]].'' She invents a teleporting machine and a device to control time portals, she built a prototype battle robot, and she can repair more advanced robots that exist over a thousand years after her time!
* [[Brutal Legend|Eddie Riggs]], in an unusual example of The Engineer being the protagonist. Sure, he can fight, drive, lead armies {{spoiler|and turn into an ass-kicking demon}}, but the main reason he's so valuable to the Ironheade army is his knowledge of mechanics and capacity for building stuff. He's a perfect example of how Engineers help turn the tide of battle through usage of technology. Later in the game, Mangus and Jack(the Headbanger with the hydraulic car jack of death) are examples as well.
* [[Lock's Quest]], being from a tower defense genre, also has an Engineer protagonist, along with Engineers being a core part of society. Also unlike the present examples, Lock starts out as a freshman to Engineering, over the course of the game developing bigger and better guns, walls, and traps. Though mostly working as a Support Engineer, Lock is also expected to help out in the frontlines, to collect [[Power Source|Source]] used to build more towers, pre-engage [[Mecha-Mooks]], and stop [[Advancing Boss of Doom|Boss]] [[Elite Mooks|Mooks]] from reaching your defenses and the source wells/pathways you are guarding.
** In fact, nearly any protagonist of a tower-defense game could be considered an Engineer of sorts.
* Andy from [[Advance Wars]]. His [[Limit Break|CO Power]] heals and buffs all his troops.
