In Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Milos Thatch (voiced by Michael J. Fox) has a passion for archaeology, language, and antiquities, which he takes after his grandfather. He works as a linguist and cartographer for the Smithsonian Institute, and he soon finds himself on an expedition to rediscover Atlantis.

Lara Croft is just your average run-of-the-mill English archaeologist. Dodging boulders, navigating through ancient ruins, and fighting giant stone statues is just your typical day for this video game icon. She’s been somersaulting through hazardous tombs for over a decade and she’s only getting better.

Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) is a college professor of archaeology who would rather go on an adventure than lecture. He’s known for making good use of his bullwhip, although he’s not afraid to use his gun when the situation calls for it. In fact, the only thing he seems to be afraid of are snakes.

In the Uncharted series, Nathan “Nate” Drake is treasure hunter with an everyman personality and a wardrobe to match. Game publisher Naughty Dog based him on a combination of Johnny Knoxville and Harrison Ford, and they got the scoundrel down pat.

In Life is Strange, Chloe Price (voiced by Ashly Burch) is best friends with Max Caulfield, who once saved Chloe’s life. She’s a stubborn and rebellious punk rocker, and somewhat of a bad influence on the geeky Max.

Highly intelligent, intensely curious, wildly theoretical and with a penchant for sneezing, professor of Egyptology Daniel Jackson (James Spader) from the 1994 sci-fi flick Stargate traipses across an unknown world in search of knowledge, exploration and, unexpectedly, love. While off-world, he wears a loose robe and shawls given to him by the local tribe over his standard army clothes.
