Line 136:
** Bioware likes this trope so much that they built the party members of ''[[Video Games/Mass Effect|Mass Effect]]'' after it. Shepard is the Hero. Kaiden is the Lancer. Ashley is the big guy. Liara is the smart guy. Wrex is the Old Guy (he is a couple hundred years old). Tali is the young guy. Garrus is... whatever's left.
*** If you see Tali and Liara as both being Smart Guys in different fields, then Garrus could be the Young Guy. Shepard becomes his mentor, after all, and his character development reflects what he picks up from your own behavior as a Paragon or Renegade.
*** The bulk of ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'' is basically assembling an entire 10-person team (12 with the [[Downloadable Content|DLC]]) ''Magnificent Seven''-style, with the added wrinkle of getting said team loyal to you and upgrading your ship and weapons before the main mission of going through the Omega-4 Relay. Though it ''is'' possible for people to die during the Suicide Mission, your primary goal is to take out the Collector base and bring everyone back alive.
* ''[[Halo]]: Reach'' has some shades of this. {{spoiler|Except it doesn't end very well...}}
*** Carter - [[The Hero]]
