Obscure characters only you remember!

Kent Knutson from Normality.

Not too many people talk about him, but I thought he was a cool main character from a game not many people I know played.

Plus, he was voiced by Corey Feldman!

Looks like he's shitting a colorful vortex.

Loved the art and the Harvest Moon-lite town building and harem with a nice variety of girls. Too bad I never totally understood the gameplay in the tower and having to slog back through all the floors every time back in primary school.
Haven't played it in over a decade it seems. Damn.
 
that thing had a name? don't tell me the ninja had one too

Didn't know untill I googled a picture some months ago. Me and my brother always called him "Green Mamba" as kids, dunno where we got that from.

I don't think the ninja had a name.

Oh Amagon! How I wish others knew of your heroic efforts to save the world from Lionmen, Aliens, and Birdies. Your good deeds will always have a special place in my heart,
 
Tarayzan

The guy that gives you the Magic Seeds in a early level of the original Rayman so that you can get his clothes for him.

YES.

Don't forget about the Musician dad who gives you the flying potion in blue mountains after breaking his guitar out of a rock.

Ester

This is the first time I've ever been able to find a clear image of her. I used to be obsessed with finding one, because in the game someone refers to her as "odd looking" or something but her sprite is too small/too far away in the game to see what they mean. From what I could tell I always thought she had a weird robotic mask or a bird face or something... guess not.
 
I still play the Real Bouts and Fatal Fury 3 on my PS2 every week because of those game´s roster. I want Franco Bash in the next KOF! He also had a great music theme as well.

As for other obscure characters, a reason I liked Flower, Sun and Rain so much was because of the rather interesting cast. Here are some of them.

Missing from that pic the most badass character in the game, Mr. Pirate.

I was thinking of posting Mr Pirate myself. Good to see I didn't have to.

I LOVE YOU for finding this.

Always wanted to know what she looked like.

Clockwork Knight from Clockwork Knight
Actually, his name is Sir Pepperouchau III ("Pepper" for short). But yeah, I loved playing the demo for Clockwork Knight 2 as a kid, and managing to get the full game off of eBay as a teen was kind of a big deal for me. Game wasn't half-bad, either.

Actually, most Saturn-only games are obscure enough that I could post images and almost nobody in here would know who the hell I'm talking about.
 
I might not be the only one that remembers him, but the gun repair shop owner from Silent Hill: Homecoming.

"How about I take that shotgun off your hands?" the well-intentioned player asks.

...

"How about I slap you and kill you?"

That was pretty much what I was trying to remember when I started posting xD. I was the only person I knew with a Sega Saturn, but I didn't have that many games for it, especially with unique characters (had like 3 Marvel-related games, Virtua Fighter, Sonic, etc.)

Guess I could post this guy too, but hes on the Wii now:
