Native American video game characters?

[Ikagura]

I can hardly count many in video games (or at least the mainstream ones).

Sure, fighting games can have one but they are often all about having a diverse and colourful cast so this may not count.

And even then you mostly see some with the same traditional outfit (for Turok I can understand since the comic was set in a world that isn't ours) but it's a bit lacking of originality (like Jamaican characters having green coloured outfit or European/German characters being blonde haired and blue eyed in any Japanese game).

The only original one I can recall so far is Tommy from Prey (2006) which looks more like a rocker yet still has the "mysticism" aspect with his powers:

I AM TUROK!

Okay, so he's a robot, but he still counts in my book.

 

[TotzOnGaming]

Thunder Hawk and Lily

Akuji

 

[kenrokuen]

Wild Arms 2 & 3 have main characters like that

 

[ZeromusVX4]

Shania from Shadow Hearts 3

 

[Aziamuth]

A lot of characters in fighting games are like that because they wanted to copy T. Hawk

 

[SLEDGE_DOG]

I don't remember specific characters, but Never Alone is all about Alaska Native culture and mythology.

 

[LostKing]

Ratonhnhaké:ton aka Connor in Assassin's Creed 3

This It's the closest we got to an actual Native American in a video game; they sidestepped the whole 1950s oomba goomba BS. It's a shame they they forget to build an amazing game around him.

Tommy in Prey (and maybe Connor in AC3) is the only one that felt like a real human being, rather than a bundle of “noble savage” stereotypes.

I would love to play a Life Is Strange-style slice-of-slice game set in a Native American community. Reservation Dogs is one of my favorite TV series of the decade and it would be great to play a game in that world.

 

[Cu-Neo]

Easily one of the strongest Native American on planet earth.

 

[ThunderBoy]

 

[SpcDaicon]

Raoul and Dingo are both native Netopians which is the equivalent of North America (mixed with Europe) in the Megaman Battlenetwork universe

 

[Evaccaneer Doom]

They 100% based this ability’s design on them, noticed from day 1

Do you mean an Indian? Because I was born in America, which makes me a native American. Same with my whole family, and a huge amount of other people born in America who are native Americans. I suppose you're talking about tribes and Indians etc. Not many games about that culture because it doesn't sell.

No you're not. Your ancestors were probably european like 90% or more of the american people. Native american means having descendents who were born in that contintent, specificallly North America,
