Do you ever get the feeling that the main protagonist of your video game is not the most interesting character in that universe? Are you ever intrigued by a minor character in a story and wish you could learn more about him, her, or it? Do you have a favorite character who is still shrouded in mystery? Did your favorite character meet an untimely demise before you really got to know him or her? Well on tonight's show we will be sharing our Top 5 'Characters We Want to Learn More About', or as I like to call it, the Top 5 'Shepherd Books'.

The Top 5 choice was inspired by Zekana's viewer question from the podcast earlier in the week. We want to hear your opinions on the subject so please post them here in the Top 5 Thread. We will be reading off the best entries on the show.

The podcast will be recording around 7 or 8pm Central time.

    Very very cool! I remember in Morrowind and Oblivion, there being tons of characters in little notes or through rumor I wanted to learn more about, killed me that I couldn't find much more. Like the wizard who left his ring in that mountain pass in oblivion, and you needed to go barrel to barrel to find it. He fled to north can I couldn't hunt him down :(

    Brad's list is sure to have "Sandal" from "Dragon Age" in it.

    Hopefully they might shine a light on a few minor villains in video games. I always love a good bad guy.

    Grey fox isnt in mystery.

    His background is given in MGS Portable Ops. you learn more of him there, then he is in MG 1 and MG2 and MGS.

    His story is pretty much given, thanks the the whole mgs timeline. you can read the mgs4 database (off psn) to get everything about him.
