Fargoth from The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
“I have a feeling you and I are going to become very close…” Fargoth, among other things, is the first NPC you’ll encounter after leaving the Census and Excise building in Seyda Neen. Watch out for that annoying Hrisskar Flat-Foot who enjoys shaking you down, perhaps a little too much. You’ve only got 300 gold coins to your name and you’d better keep an eye on them. Maybe you’ll even get your Engraved Ring of Healing back one day. A good tailor will be able to hem the sleeves of that tunic so it matches nicely.
Professor Rowan in Pokémon
“Hello there! It’s so very nice to meet you! Welcome to the world of Pokémon!” Professor Rowan, located in the Sinnoh region, is a specialist in the field of Pokémon evolution and contemporary of Professor Oak and mentor to Professor Sycamore. Rowan is sometimes perceived as mean because of his stern personality, but he is actually kind and patient. He’s quite a snazzy dresser.
Vinsmoke Sanji from One Piece
Vinsmoke Sanji is the fifth member, and cook, of the Straw Hat Pirates in One Piece. He’s commonly referred to by his nickname, “Black Leg.” He has a rather large bounty placed on him by his father, but it’s only good if he is captured and returned alive.
His outfit changes much more often than the rest of the crew depending on the episode being before or after the time skip. You can generally see him in a double breasted black suit with buttoned shirts and ties of varying colours.
Trowa Barton in Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
The third member of the G Team, Trowa Barton, is the most experienced soldier and a skilled infiltrator; he’s often shown wearing enemy uniforms. He’s the only member of the group that was born on Earth. Personality-wise, Trowa is exceedingly calm and patient, with a determination that can only be described as inhuman.
Heero Yuy from Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
The man we know as Heero Yuy is the main protagonist in Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, despite not being the leader of the G Team. Having been disciplined since childhood, and with a little genetic manipulation, Heero is the most skilled of the five Gundam pilots. In combat he has no compassion for his enemies and is often described as the perfect soldier, although he normally has no trouble displaying emotion outside of a battle.
Himura Kenshin from Rurouni Kenshin
We find Kenshin roaming the Japanese countryside, carrying his reverse-blade sword (sakabatō), in search of redemption for the lives he has taken. He has made a vow to never kill again. Kenshin is known throughout Japan as the legendary swordsman and assassin, Hitokiri Battōsai. However, we see that he is really a soft spoken and humble person – quite the opposite of what would be expected.
Professor Juniper in Pokémon
Professor Juniper is the first female professor in the Pokémon series. Her specialisation is Pokémon origin and she is an old friend of Professor Oak, because who isn’t, right? Her clothes are pretty plain, especially when compared to the other Pokémon Profs.
Professor Elm in Pokémon
Professor Elm was Professor Oak’s top student. He studies Pokémon abilities and specialises in Pokémon breeding (and is credited with the discovery of Pokémon eggs). Elm is a known scatterbrain who, when working, forgets to eat. He often gets so focused on his studies that he becomes completely oblivious to his surroundings.
Professor Birch in Pokémon
Professor Birch is the stoutly Pokémon professor for the Hoenn Region. He is more outgoing than the other professors and often takes his research with him outdoors, hence those really cool sandals. Birch’s research specialisation is Pokémon behaviour in the wild.
Quatre Raberba Winner in Mobile Suit Gundam Wing
Quatre is the pilot of Sandrock and leader of “G Team.” Along with the four other members: Heero Yuy (Wing Gundam), Duo Maxwell (Deathscythe), Trowa Barton (Heavyarms) and Chang Wufei (Shenlong), he is sent to Earth as part of a plan to take revenge on the OZ military corporation. Quatre believes in the idea of pacifism and is often reluctant to kill an enemy. He is kind and humble, as well as being the best dressed of the group.
