I left the franchises broad and specified that they didn't have to be successful, which also includes not very well known branches. Though I would argue that Legend of Zelda is a bloody well known franchise as far as the manga goes, and the cartoon is canon - on the Zelda timeline it follows the death of the hero in the fight against Ganondorf in Ocarina of Time.

And I really don't want to do a Mario or Sonic character because it does not interest me whatsoever. I am the one making this, so I have to at least be interested in the character. Mario and Sonic don't cut it for me.

I never said the video games had to have similar themes; that makes for a boring team that won't have character development because everyone will be much for muchness. With the differences between games, I'm going to come out with some very different people that can lead to interesting characterisations and interactions with each other.

Eh, you may be right. Other than Sonic or Mario, which I don't want to use for personal reasons, what games can you suggest?
