How about doing a list of potential video game characters for a 40 type fanfic? Just which characters you would pick. Original Video Game characters can count as well. And sequels to video games.
I would pick...
Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor (Talion)
Red Dead Redemption (John Marston or Arthur Morgan)
Prince of Persia (The Prince)
Infamous (Cole McGrath)
Viewtiful Joe (Joe)
Resident Evil (either Chris Redfield or Jill Valentine)
Okay, so bear in mind that I am NOT an avid video game player. I only know these games based on watching other people play them or have been told about them.

I’ve been meaning to draw Fran and Misfortune just doing a leisurely normal-childhood activity, because these little ladies deserve a break. I eventually decided on them having a movie night.
My face hurts so here’s a completed version of this old sketch. I’m so tired and my face looks like that episode of b99 where Jake and holt have the mumps
It's time for me to ascend to that multifandom status by showing you a crossover art of the fandoms I'm in accidentally getting themselves a ticket in the midway point of limbo and dreams.
Bucky Barnes: bcs he is my littlest guys he’s the THE guy he died but he didnt hes was a fugative he doesnt have an arm he grew up in one of the gayest cities of the 40s
Misfortune Ramirez-Hernandez: She has horrible parents, got run over by her dad and then got tricked by a demon. You wanna know how the demon tricked her? By saying she could earn eternal happiness- which Misfortune wanted to give to her mommy. She eats glitter and falls on her face a lot. She's also seen like all the spy movies. And she has a crush on a fox. Please just watch some clips of people playing the game, Misfortune is too adorable I can't even put it into words. She deserved so much better I just wanna give her a big hug.
Nova V’ger, Arthur Lester, Stanely Parable, Misfortune Ramirez Hernandez, The Long Quiet, and Daisy Thistleheart should have a support group for people with gods or other forms of powerful beings or narrators in their head
Misfortune Ramirez Hernandez from Little Misfortune would survive in Puella Magi Madoka Magica!
Reason: I am not going to sugarcoat it; her life flat-out sucked; the adults around her wear smiling masks due to their miserable lives, kids have gone missing left and right, was eventually killed by her own father in a car accident, and you know the bar is beyond low when the eldritch horror whose goal was to keep her trapped in his little "game" treated her in a much better way than her own parents did throughout her life. Despite all that, though, she remains strong; she tried to make the best out of what scraps of happiness she had received throughout her living days, and is even selfless enough to sacrifice the "eternal happiness" that awaited her at the end of the road to her mother.
She also outright stands up to Morgo, the aforementioned eldritch being, and tells him off; stating that she doesn't want to play his game anymore. If she could flip the bird to a monster with a skull for a head and is more than able to keep her soul in a state of eternal damnation, she could kick Kyubey's face like an American football at any time of the day.
