Any trial that comes your way will test you to the fullest but you have the guts and skill to maintain that upbeat attitude in the face of danger. Sonic is known for his cocky attitude, laid-back demeanor, and having a short temper, but his love and passion for saving the world is immense.

Lara Croft (Reboot)
She’s brave when faced with seemingly impossible tasks. She’s timid at first when it comes to defeating her enemies, but she gets used to the fact that the bad guys have to be stopped and it’s up to her to do it.
Lara seeks the help of her close friends when faced with crisis. She’s extremely compassionate towards the safety of the people around her and wants nothing but good to come to her pals.
Using whatever weapons she can find, whether it be a bow and arrow, an axe, or guns, she gets the job done. Killing people isn’t her favorite, but if she’s killing murderers, then it doesn’t seem to matter.
You’re very much interested in learning new languages, cultures and just how how other people live in general. Lara wants to know everything about her father and his archaeological finds throughout his life. She’s always looking forward to the next best thing.
You’re brave, intellectual, and will stop at nothing to explore the past and discover what’s around the next corner.

Nathan Drake
Congrats, you are none other than the treasure hunting extraordinaire, Nathan Drake. The protagonist of the Uncharted series is confident, self-educated, and has quite a sarcastic sense of humor. Nathan loves nothing more than a good ol’ adventure. He’s not all about the money when it comes to finding rare artifacts; he actually cares about discovering ancient ruins and the like. He prides himself on having the knowledge it takes to do what he does.
Drake is not a big proponent of murder, but sometimes he has to do what he has to do, and if that involves killing, then so be it. You would rather choose to avoid dire situations if possible; guns aren’t always the answer.
He’ll wear whatever is available and comfortable, not caring about looks. Fashion isn’t important to him, he even keeps his shirt half tucked in at all times. Something resistant to the forces of nature would be the best choice for a type of person like him.
You’re a romantic who will sacrifice themselves for the ones they love. You tell witty jokes in the face of danger just to take the edge off situations. People may see you as the class clown, but also as a hard-worker and loyal to the people who mean the most.
BACK TO TOP
Mario
You are Mario, the mustached plumber who will do whatever it takes to save the beloved Princess Peach. Not only can he unclog any disastrous toilet across the Mushroom Kingdom, he can use many different power-ups to defeat any enemy that crosses his path to the Koopa King, Bowser. You’re trustworthy, caring, and not afraid to stomp out some Goombas and Paratroopas to save the girl. You don’t necessarily like to learn new things since you’re busy saving the princess all the time.
Mario also has to take care of his younger brother, Luigi, who gets frightened very easily. With Mario’s guidance, Luigi usually conquers his fears and steps up to the plate just like his brother. You’re a role model to citizens everywhere.
You’re a hero of the kingdom and everyone looks up to you and wants to be you. If only you can keep your eyes on Princess Peach so that she doesn’t get captured for the umpteenth time, but besides that, you’re golden!
BACK TO TOP
Samus Aran
You are Samus Aran, the bounty hunter who chooses to go alone. You don’t need other people to hold you back and tell you what to do. Not being on a team makes you a stronger person and helps you think about life in new ways. Samus travels through space and kills all of the disgusting enemies that stand in her way. She doesn’t hold anything back, and isn’t afraid of even her toughest rival, Ridley.
You access situations before diving in as much as you can, gathering information on enemies and the world around you. Samus examines all of her enemies beforehand so that battles end quickly and successfully. Her vast array of weapons will take down any weakness an enemy may have. You wear what’s the most helpful and in this case, it’s a power suit. You feel all-powerful when you’re in it, nothing can harm you.
Samus is a bad-ass gaming icon, kicking butt and taking names. You’re the type of person that does what it takes to complete your mission, no questions asked.

Kratos
The God of War himself, Kratos. Vengeful and cold-blooded, for a pretty good reason. Kratos had a bad hand dealt to him that made him the way that he is. Putting it simply, he was tricked by the Olympians to murder his family. You can usually find him killing a God and attempting to change his destiny.
His whole journey is based around the theme of vengeance. Now this doesn’t mean that you’re a hot-headed jerk, but you may need to assess your choices in life. Revenge isn’t always the answer, but if your family was killed by the trickery of the gods, then I’m sure most people would get it.
You’re hard-headed and you don’t let people get in the way of what you desire. Other people most likely stay clear of you since you seem to be on edge a lot. Family is the most important thing to you. You’ll do anything to protect the ones you love, even if it involves hurting another human being.

Pac-Man
WAKA-WAKA-WAKA-WAKA-WAKA-WAKA-WAKA. That’s the sound that Pac-Man makes when he’s gobbling up ghosts, fruits, and little yellow pellets. You’re Pac-Man, the epitome of gluttony. He’ll stop at nothing to eat whatever is in front of his big yellow mouth. You’re a self-interested person that sometimes freaks out when trouble arises.
His eating habit is completely understandable, though, so don’t worry. I mean, come on, you’re trapped in a box with nothing but delicious fruits and ghosts that are trying to kill you.
At least Pac-Man ends up being a contender in Smash Bros., so he gets to make some new friends from time to time instead of hanging out with Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde all the time.
BACK TO TOP
LIGHTNING
Lightning’s goal is to save her little sister Serah from harm’s way. She ends up with a ragtag group of heroes, though, and finds herself saving the world. Along the way, Lightning can’t help but feel like these guys are slowing her down, she would really rather go it alone.
You’re determined, independent, and concentrated on your goals. Lightning is pretty cold to people that she meets, but somewhere deep inside of her, there’s a person that’s compassionate and warm. She looks out for nobody but herself and the people close to her.
The first impression that you give people might be a negative one. You might seem stand-offish or distant, but inside you’re just focused, and need someone to push the fun out of you.
BACK TO TOP
WARIO
Wario wants nothing but money, money, and more money. Mario is nice enough to invite him to some parties and kart races, but Wario always ends up ruining the fun in some way.
He may not seem like the hero type, but Wario has actually had multiple adventures of his own. He’s faced tons of villains that Mario couldn’t seem to get the time to defeat. Sure, he probably did it for the fame and fortune, but a hero he still is.
He’s not trying to kidnap the Princess like Bowser or anything, but he’s still an annoying fool to have around. You’re very cunning, sneaky, and maybe people don’t always get your sense of humor. But you’re fine as long as you remember to play nice and relax.
BACK TO TOP
NOCTIS CAELUM
They boy who didn’t love the idea of having to be a hero, Noctis Caelum, the prince of Lucis. Noctis spends the majority of his time hanging out with his best friends. These guys aren’t royalty like Noctis, but he treats them like his equal, as a Prince should. Noctis isn’t the most exciting guy to be around, he tends to doze off and has a lazy way of speaking and showing emotions.
You might have dealt with some emotional turmoil in your younger years like Noctis, causing you to rarely speak unless spoken to. Maybe you have trust issues or have trouble figuring out who you are in life. Your purpose is yet to be known and that upsets you. You act rebellious at times and despise being told what to do by your superiors.
Though hesitant to meet new people, Noctis relies on his best friends to help him see the light and figure out what his deal is. He wouldn’t be who he is without the support of his pals.
