One of my favorite video game characters is Lilac, the protagonist of the Freedom Planet games. But there was one thing about her design that I never really understood.
Just what the hell are those blue things on the sides of her head? They're right where her ears should be. And those things on top of her head are actually horns. I mean, they look neat I guess, but what are they, and why are they there?
Well as I discovered recently, they are actually hearing aids. It turns out that Lilac has a genetic defect that made her as good as deaf, so she wears those blue things over her ears to help her hear. I actually like her even more now that I know this about her.
It also got me wondering: what are some other video game protagonists that are disabled in some way, shape, or form?
EDIT: You know what? I'm not that picky. They don't necessarily have to be the main character. If they're playable at all, I'd love to hear about them.
