This is (obviously) the fictional edition of my other hit thread, Name That Dead Guy!
This has similar rules to the other one but with a few changes to make things fair. You are not allowed to use a dead from a book/movie/whatever as your dead guy and say he's dead only because the book/movie/whatever takes place in a time that ensure's he's dead by now. If you're doing someone from, say Lord of the Rings or Elder Scrolls lore however, then that's a different story assuming that they're dead by the time of another book/game.
It's not a rule, but please be considerate of other people. If you have any decency then you won't pick a character from a new and trending show/movie/whatever (I.E. try not to spoil things).
People who are dead in the beginning of a crime solving show and have no real part are strictly prohibited as that would just be cruel.
The other rules are in the other thread which I linked to. I can't think of any other rules at the moment, if I do I'll post them.
Right, so I don't read all that much, there are only a few fictional things that interest me too terribly much and some of that will be pretty easy, and I don't want that, so I'll probably be sticking mostly to obscure (but not too obscure) Elder Scrolls characters. Whether they are just in lore or in the games.
I am thinking of a dead lady from the Elder Scrolls, not exactly obscure, but I rather doubt it'll be quickly guessed. For this one, I even allow you to use the Elder Scrolls wiki as an aid for your guessing. Good luck and good guessing!
If it featured in any (including spinoffs) Mario, Zelda, Pokemon games? Released before, after, or during Gamecube (or if portable, before, after, or during Game Boy Advance)? Portable or home console? Was it in a series with more than 3 games?
Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks, or A Link Between Worlds?
Is the reason the protagonist a boss like Puppet Zelda in TP? Is it a puppet zelda? Is it the big bad of the game? Or is it before the completion of the usual first set of macguffins (ex: three spiritual stones, 4 light springs, following zelda to the thee temples (OoT, TP, and SS)? Is it one of the bosses during the second set of macguffins? Does this game even use that traditional 2 macguffin sets?
What? No. No. Yes, but you don't know about him til' the middle of the game. I don't understand the rest of the questions, but you can figure out the character with only that much info.
EDIT: In the Zelda games I have played (OoT, TP, and SS), there are two sets of Macguffins/plot coupon items in the game, where first you are told to find the first set to finish the game, but after doing so you find out you need the second set to truly finish it (the spiritual stones in OoT for example are a first set, and then the sage medallions is the second set, same for the light spirits in TP and the resulting mirror shards, and finding zelda in SS and then Upgrading the Master Sword).
The first question refers to the possessing of Zelda's body by the big bad in TP and I believe Spirit Tracks.
