Glad to see this taking off
Also, Karifean, feel free to share your visual novel characters. There's a reason I put this in gen gaming instead of gen RPG, despite my list basically being only RPG characters.
Next 5!
Zell Dincht (Final Fantasy VIII):

In game use: Zell's magics and summons can be customized by the player, but what does stick is his use of fists to pummel his enemies, as well as his limit break, which has the player input certain button combos.

Why I like him: Zell serves as the comic relief for the game, but he also has a heart of gold. He got picked on a lot, but he doesn't let it keep him down for long. He puts his whole heart in to everything he does, doing it with enthusiasm and positivity.
Lyon (Suikoden V):

In game use: Lyon has pretty solid stats, although a bit low on magic and HP, but she also has pretty high speed.
Why I like her: Lyon is the definition of dedicated. She has a checkered past, but she is eternally grateful for those who saved her from it being her future. She puts her life on the line for others and never takes her duties lightly. She's also a sweetheart.
Faris Scherwix (Final Fantasy V):
ffv-faris-sprite.jpg
In game use: Faris is a pirate, and like other characters in the game, she can be whatever job(s) you want her to be (the game is as old as I am, I'm gonna go ahead and spoil that one for ya)
Why I like her: Faris, on top of having some amusing lines, is a badass. She climbs mountains she was knocked off of, she has a whole crew of pirates who love her, and really she is very confident in who she is. Even when they find out Faris is a lady, she doesn't suddenly start dressing all girly or acting all feminine. She's just Faris.
Celes Chere (Final Fantasy VI):

In game use: Celes has pretty balanced stats and is one of two characters who learns magic naturally, although you can customize more what magics she uses via Espers. She also has an ability that allows her to negate the next magic attack and use it to restore her MP.
Why I like her: Celes is a very tragic character that you just can't help but feel for. But still she tries her best. She's more reserved about her feelings, and she can be a bit cold sometimes, but she has some of the most touching scenes in the whole game.
Mishera (Ys Seven (Ys 7?)):
In game use: Mishera has some great magic attacks, which I think is probably her main strength. She isn't the best at taking hits, though.

Why I like her: Mishera is basically the calm, intelligent, and caring woman I always strive to be. She doesn't let her emotions get the best of her and is very useful in helping the group in their adventure. She can also kind of predict the future which is pretty neat.
Those are my 5 for today. Stay tuned

Oh, and Dan Hibiki could take taunting lessons from this guy -- not even company logos are safe from him! D:

I was sooooo happy when I found her in that random beach town in Pokemon Black and got to fight her revised team, and then both her AND Blue showed up in Black 2. <3 Oh, and I think Red might have been there too, but who even cares about that guy.
