The concept of the thread is simple, find people from games/movies/whatever that look like OotS characters.

I'll start with Erk from Fire Emblem:

Roy

Edit: I've noticed alot of similarities between Elan and Haley, with Gourry and Lina. However the exact phyiscal appearance really isn't so close.

Gourry and Lina from... Lina Inverse?

No, can't say I see any resemblance.

From Slayers, and I meant an overall resemblance, not just physical

Elan and Gourry:
Blonde
Silly
Not so bright
In love with a Redhead who loves treasure

Lina and Haley:
Redheads
Love Treasure
May not seem like it at first, but are good people
In love with the silly blonde.

If V and Haley somehow had a child, that child would be Lina. Maybe.

On the subject of anime/manga characters, have you ever taken a real good look at the protagonist of Battle Angel Alita(or Gunnm as it's known in Japan)? While a bit on the short side, our favorite dark-haired female cyborg Alita has a VERY eerie resemblance to one Miko Miyazaki...

Especially when both of them slip into a rampage. I've seen Alita go bar none psychotic in a fight while reading that manga... though on the flip side, Alita does seem more prone to listen to all sides of the story, rather than jump to conclusions. Still, the physical similarity is quite close.

without the makeup and look on her face i would say this looks like a realistic version of Haley.

Not really. Haley could look like any girl ever, which I suppose is an advantage of stick figures. Nothing in the strip has even hinted that Haley might have anything above an average level of attractiveness.

Elan looks like Nale, a villain from some random webcomic.

Sorry. ¬_¬

Except for the strips cast page (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/ootscast.html).

Except that she's a rogue and therefore isn't the most accurate character class and every other fact on that character page has been disproven.

If I'd promised cookies you'd probably diserve one though.

Vaarsuvius is indeed "keeper of a thousand arcane secrets," we have yet to see a better tracker than Belker who was also under four feet tall, Durkon seems pretty reliable, Roy is the leader and has prior adventuring experience (OotPC), and we haven't seen enough of Elan's spell selection to determine whether or not he is in fact a master of enchantment. Nothing on that page has been disproven. Furthermore, Haley almost never misses, regardless of her BAB progression. And all of that is irrelevant as the line about her aim being matched only by her beauty is obviously supposed to mean that she's good looking. Also, look here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0259.html).

It didn't hit me until just now, but Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable seem a lot like Haley and Elan. Both Haley and Kim are quite competent (and Kim definitely seems like a Rogue to me) while Elan and Ron are... not. Of course, Elan now has his Dashing Swordsman PrC and Ron has gotten more and more competent as the show progressed. And as of Season 4 Ron and Kim are going out, as are Haley and Elan.

I don't think Elan is the kind of person who has spots on his face. Personality wise it might be close but I don't watch that program.

"kind of person who has spots on his face???"

Exactly what "kind of person" gets freckles?

What are you saying here?

I've never seen the aforementioned show either; this is my first exposure to it.

Lying awake last night, I was struck that Belkar bears some resemblance (not in appearance so much as character) to the movie version of Gimli.

This guy (aka Deobia Oparei) could pass for Roy. He had a part in Moulin Rouge! and this picture is from the movie.(His role was small but he was important to the plot.)

Sorry, I sounded bitter.

Well, their skin color,hairstyles, and even heights are different (or, I think they are).

You could've seen some similarities...but I just don't. Do you want to elaborate?

WaterToFire

I'm pretty sure the scowl is the only similarity between the two.

Yes.

...

I'm pretty sure I remember Erk being male, but one of the mages in one of the Fire Emblem games was rather androgynous. I don't think it was Erk, but it could've been.

Erk is male. Lucius isn't androgynous. Androgynous people look slightly masculine.
http://eaichu250.superbusnet.com/feartwork/FE7-9/erk.png Erk doesn't look that much like V when you can see more than his purple hair and red cloak. He is slightly androgynous but no more than the standard Bishonen.
http://eaichu250.superbusnet.com/feartwork/FE7-9/lucius.png Lucius on the other hand looks like a girl but is in fact male.
