Two colors and you can instantly tell who he is and what he does.
how would I know what he does because of that outfit?
Antiwhippy
the holder of the trombone
He's a real estate agent.
The garish white suit with no tie combined with the haircut and always-on deathglare. If I saw someone like this walking the streets of Tokyo I would be pretty suspicious, lol.

Bloodborne Hunter Set
When you absolutely positively need to slay some beasties with style, accept no subsitutes.
Strikes a sleek predatory silhouette, yet beautifully detailed. Iconic.
Honorable mentions:
Eileen the Crow from Bloodborne
The entire cast of Darkest Dungeon

Raziel in Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
EDIT: I guess I should read these topics a little bit more than just the first few posts or so as the person above me literally just posted the best one lol.

Rhyme from TWEWY. The simplest Nomura design? I hate how she wasn't playable. I can't choose one, so I went with the first thing that popped into my mind that wasn't already posted to avoid repetition.
Other notes:
- Sonic characters are probably the most underrated. Rule 34 doesn't make a design bad.
- SF2 characters are probably the most overrated. Iconic doesn't always mean good.
- Shout out to Zelda for their great fictional races design, especially the Zoras they finally nailed in BotW.

Sad that theres not many of these badass kind of designs. Fortunately I think soon enough there will be more Zaryas rathen than 2Bs the way gaming industry has progressed.

One of the most character fitting designs from recent memory. Great choice.Radiant Historia

A few personal favourites:
The Drifter - Hyper Light Drifter
Guillo - Baten Kaitos Origins
Skull Kid - The Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask
K - Virtue's Last Reward
I... huh. There's a very obvious trend here that I didn't even realize I liked until I saw all of these next to each other. I'm also generally a fan of bird-like heads/faces, so I like the Yukes from Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, and characters with plague masks, like Eileen the Crow or Plague Knight, as well as very clean-looking mechanical things with lots of moving parts (think Atlas and P-Body from Portal 2, or Sam Gideon from Vanquish).
