    My top ten:

    1. The King of All Cosmos
    2. Naked Snake
    3. The Nameless One
    4. Frank West - He's covered wars, yanno?
    5. Aerith Gainsborough - Because she's the only character in the game that didn't make me want me to choke them.
    6. Anonymous Wei Soldier #562
    7. Lady Deirdra of the Gaians
    8. Gordon Freeman - Because there's something about a guy in glasses with an MIT degree and a crowbar.
    9. Solid Snake
    10. Anonymous Svartalf Thrall #23 - Because they drop good loot.

    If you can name all the games, I'll love you forever

    Garrett is a little too mysterious to be very interesting. Would be nice if he had some sort of personality other than "STFU n00b! My money!", as is the case on mission 1 of Thief 2: The Metal Age, when he says that love gets in the way of his money.

    Be that as it may but I am a rabid Thief-fanboy so I never miss a chance to praise it to heaven. What makes Garret so interesting is his place in that lovely creepy sinister world of his. He is sly, cynical and sexy but can't help being a good person, he is more or less a spectator of events yet he unwillingly shapes them. And common! How can a pupil-keeper of the ancient texts that became a Thief not be interesting??

    A short google search revealed that you people indeed mean another nameless guy than I do because I actually mean the nameless hero, not the nameless one. That's probably because I never played the nameless one, the game concept doesn't look as nice to me.

    So erm, yeah, the Nameless Hero it is.

    As much as I love Thief (in my top three games), Garrett isn't all that interesting to me. I much prefer Zaya, an Egyptian princess turned Thief (Thief2x).

    The Nameless One = Planescape: Torment
    The Nameless Hero = ??? (I'm assuming it has to do with KFC and watermelons)

    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?
