Two male characters portray different aspects of masculinity. The Noble Male is generally world-wise, gentlemanly, and sophisticated — while the Roguish Male is generally street-wise, grizzled, and uncouth. The former will generally focus on a single special lady and treat her with the highest respect while the latter tends more toward sleeping around with many women or is just not interested in sex and romance at all. If he is, romance with him is likely to be destructive, deadly even, if he is any good with women at all. Basically, the Noble Man is what the single woman is looking for and the Roguish Man what all the girls out there lust after.
Differs from Sensitive Guy and Manly Man in that the Noble Male is still very much considered "manly" — but is so in a more chivalrous fashion, rather than in an aggressive fashion.
A love triangle between them might be The Gentleman or the Scoundrel or a male version of Betty and Veronica. Also related is Red Oni, Blue Oni, with the Noble Male being the Blue to the Roguish Male's Red.
Contrast the polar opposites, Bifauxnen and Lad-ette — two girls who are both masculine, but in different ways — and Light Feminine and Dark Feminine — two girls who are both feminine, but in different ways.
As with any two-character trope, the two characters have to have some sort of relationship with each other, be it friends, family, love interests, or rivals for a love interest, so the two characters can be playing the traits directly off each other. If they become enemies at some point, then it's Chevalier vs. Rogue. If they're in a military-like organization, they're often Captain Smooth and Sergeant Rough.
In modern Western culture, "feminine" usually implies Light Feminine, while "masculine" usually implies Roguish Male. When Dark Feminine and Noble Male are paired up, you usually get Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy.

Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Godzilla and Rodan. The former is fierce but reasonable, stoic and compassionate towards San and Vivienne. The latter is Hot-Blooded (literally), and he's a Blood Knight who attacks Viv and San when he first meets them, wishing to avenge the previous wound Ghidorah inflicted on his ego.

Samurai Jack has the calm, clean-cut, polite Jack and the hot-tempered, rough-and-tumble, obnoxious Scotsman. The usual dynamic regarding relationships is inverted, however, with Jack being a Celibate Hero ( At least until Season 5) and the Scotsman being Happily Married.

Shadow of the Fox'' series, we get Daisuke and Okame, who are literally this, being a noble and a ronin, respectively. Their personalities fit too: Okame is unrefined, drinks, gambles, and has a lot of attitude while Daisuke is cultured, elegant, and gentlemanly. They're Fire-Forged Friends. Later on they become a couple.

In Bleach we have:
Juushiro Ukitake, white-themed, dainty, interested in tea ceremonies and on the other hand Shunsui Kyoraku, with his stubble, playboy behavior, and relaxed-to-the-point-of-laziness attitude.
Byakuya Kuchiki, young lord of the noble Kuchiki Clan, adhering to rules to the point of letting his adopted sister get executed, contrasted with Kenpachi Zaraki, who exemplifies Blood Knight behavior, even among the already more violent parts of the Bleach crew.

In the second season of Dark Angel, the introduction of Alec causes him and Logan Cale to fall into this trope, with Logan as the Noble and Alec as the Roguish — Logan is a crusading cyberjournalist out to expose and fix society's ills and Alec is a Lovable Rogue who's just gotten free of Project Manticore and isn't concerned with do-gooding unless there's something in it for him, at least at first. As the writers comment on in the DVD commentary, the original intention of them being Betty and Veronica for the series's heroine Max in a Love Triangle didn't really materialize, however, with Alec becoming more of a troublemaking brother figure. Max's affections remain steadfastly with Logan despite a virus making them literally unable to touch and him mistaking her and Alec for dating after seeing them hug. There's also some friction between the two men at first, but that's resolved by the later episodes.

Played with in Magic Knight Rayearth. Subverted with Ferio, who at first seems to be a rogue guy, but he really is a noble guy since he is Princess Emeraude's younger brother. Lafarga may seem rogue and impotent, but he really is the captain of the royal guard — although in the second season his true down-to-earth temperament shows better.

Nicolas and Guy from Innocents Shounen Juujigun make up this trope, with Nicolas as the noble (albeit hot-headed and a bit immature) young knight seeking glory and honor by Etienne's side, and Guy as the roguish, uncultured bandit with a crass demeanor and a propensity for violence. The two of them are Etienne's most loyal followers and the only two to survive the main story.

The classic Mega Man series has the two "brother" robots Rock/Mega Man and Blues/Proto Man who fit this early on, followed by the 7th game's introduction of the rival Forte/Bass who teams up from time to time.
Noble: Mega Man, the classic Ideal Hero who will stay a faithful servant doing anything needed for his "sister" robot Roll and Dr. Light who built them both, as well as for humans and robots everywhere.
In-Between: Proto Man, fiercely independent of Dr. Light and has been captured to do Wily's bidding once, but increasingly shown to have the heroes' backs as the series unfolds.
Roguish: After Proto Man has fit the role less and less, Wily has perfected the rival Bass, whose loyalty is off-and-on with Wily and mostly just fights for his own prideful, selfish reasons, even when teaming up with the heroes.

In The Case of the Double Husband, best friends George and Ted formed the noble/rogue pairing. George was an intelligent and sensitive aesthete (before his untimely death); Ted was a lazy bachelor with tastes that ran to the lowest common denominator (before his sudden personality switch in the wake of George's passing):

Front Mission has two mercenaries you rescue, Keith and J.J. whose friendship has been since back when they were in Africa. Plus, the members from the Coliseum fights — just the younger two — Meihua Yang and Gregorio, as a milder contrast.
Keith (roguish) is the snarky Boisterous Bruiser, if not a Blood Knight, purely for the profit he makes off of it; while J.J. (noble), eager to make enough to support his family, tempers their mercenary tendencies (or tries to) by being the duo's conscience.
M. Yang (noble) joins the unit in order to find out whether her younger brother is still alive, and after satisfaction, continues to faithfully serve the unit's cause; Gregorio (roguish) is the arrogant Coliseum champion from Freedom City, basically a milder version of Keith in personality.

Guilty Gear has friendly rivals and occasionally partners Sol Badguy and Ky Kiske.
Sol is a muscular and handsome Bounty Hunter with a bad attitude and a huge, angular sword that looks like a cigarette lighter. It's implied that Sol is a big fan of rock/metal music, especially Queen, and he can play the guitar.
Ky is an effeminate and pretty blonde guy who's a Knight in Shining Armor and has a noble and chivalrous attitude to match, and prefers an elegant longsword in battle. In his spare time, Ky collects teacups and is devoted to his wife Dizzy (who happens to be Sol's daughter).

In The Night Unfurls, this trope is Zig-zagged as a result of both Hidden Depths and Beneath the Mask. Vault and Kyril appear to embody the two models of masculinity respectively, but the both of them run deeper than what these archetypes expect them to be.
Vault appears to be the Noble Male that everyone In-Universe looks up to, being a hunk-ish, charismatic leader of the most celebrated PMC group in the land, famed for his invaluable contributions towards the country of Eostia and the war against the Dark Queen. A legend through and through. This guy would later reveal his true colours after winning the war. Usurping said Dark Queen, Vault turns out to be a really nasty Roguish Male who intends to betray and conquer Eostia via Military Coup, and turn the country into a No Woman's Land Sex Slave Empire, starting with the dark elf prisoners as a "test run". What's more is that his "Noble Male" aspects, namely his charisma and reputation, allow him to amass substantial support for his cause.
Kyril appears to be the Roguish Male that everyone In-Universe dreads, being a lean, sinister-looking stranger from a faraway land, known for his stoicism, asociality, and brutality against his enemies. A metaphorical fiend under a man's skin. At the same time, Kyril speaks in a refined speech, is capable of courtesies, has a preference for tea, and is accustomed to burying the dead — "Noble Male" traits being a far cry from the '90s Anti-Hero he is. Over time, the readers and several characters get to see his Noble Male qualities, particularly his attitude towards violence, as well as his concern for the common folk and his subordinates. While it turns out that he isn't the ruthless, unfeeling, and bloodthirsty figure he appears to be, these Roguish Male aspects are how he is recognised by most people In-Universe, something Kyril preferred so that he could be feared. There's also how he isn't interested in sex and romance, yet eventually finds himself surrounded by suitors...

The Dresden Files has Michael Carpenter, Knight in Shining Armor, sliding right into the Noble Male role whenever he's sharing the page with the more anti-heroic protagonist Harry Dresden. Harry is often the Noble Male when paired with other men of the series, most notably Thomas, but it's hard to rank as noble when compared to Michael Carpenter.

Final Fantasy VII:
Cloud and his rival Sephiroth are, to some extent, inspired by Berserk's Guts and Griffith (in the page image), and to another extent by Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro who are generally depicted as having this trope in Japanese media. Sephiroth is more experienced, worldly, and dignified, and has a beautiful appearance, and while he is insane he acts enlightened; Cloud is more aggressive and scrappy, with a scruffier appearance and a more brittle kind of personality.
Cloud and Barret. Cloud is blond, pale, blue-eyed, androgynously beautiful (but still unambiguously masculine), a former soldier, pragmatic, chivalrous, and a sword-fighter, and while he can be flashy and superficial he's ultimately quite introverted. Barret is a Hot-Blooded Scary Black Man and terrorist with a vicious temper, little ability to restrain his emotions, and a huge gun mounted onto one of his arms. Though Cloud is the flirt of the two, Barret is more experienced (having been married)—in one scene he advises Cloud to ask either Aeris or Tifa on a date, something in which Cloud claims to have no interest.

The White Queen: Richard of Gloucester is the Noble Male and King Edward IV is the Roguish Male. Richard is noted In-Universe to be chivalrous and very serious, plus he's a romantic at heart, whether it's love or warfare. He doesn't overindulge in food, drink, or sex. He never partakes in prostitutes, he has never tried to rape anyone (in fact, he rescues Anne Neville from gang-rape), and he's faithful to Anne after she becomes his wife. note At least for the first dozen years of their marriage; in the final year, Richard does engage in emotional cheating, but by that point, Edward has been dead for two years, so their noble/rogue dynamic no longer exists. Edward is a hedonistic Boisterous Bruiser with "a king's appetite" for earthly pleasures, which leads to significant weight gain from overeating and consuming too much alcohol. He's also notoriously promiscuous, and he attempts to rape his future wife Elizabeth Woodville, who was ready to slice her own throat to preserve her honour. Throughout their marriage, he treats whoring like a sport, and he has a long-term mistress. In Episode 7, Richard criticizes his King for the latter's salacious behaviour while the Queen is giving birth upstairs.

Played with between the titular half-demon Inuyasha and his older half-brother Sesshomaru, a full demon. The former is boisterous, disheveled, and immature, while the latter is elegant, calm, and aloof. But while Inuyasha is the heroic protagonist and an extremely devoted lover (once you get him to admit his love in the first place), Sesshomaru starts out as a murderous antagonist and has very little, if any, interest in romance (though his fangirls would beg to differ).

Yona of the Dawn: Hak and Suwon are a classic example of this trope. Hak is a roguish prodigy warrior who has little interest in romance (besides with Yona), and Suwon is a princely Bishōnen. Additionally, there is Jaeha and Kija—Kija being a Sheltered Aristocrat Pretty Boy while Jaeha is a womanizing Pirate.

Tony Stark/Iron Man, who ignores any rules he didn't make himself and will sleep with anyone, including reporters who call him "Merchant of Death" (roguish), and Steve Rogers/Captain America the paragon of incorruptible virtue who basically choose celibacy when he missed out on his true love (noble); one of the greatest foil in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, their difference gets really tense in Captain America: Civil War.

Alistair and Zevran, the two male romance options in Dragon Age: Origins. Alistair is a bashful, idealistic warrior with a dorky sense of humor. Zevran is a flirty former assassin and literal Rogue who meets the party when he tries to kill them — or rather, tries to commit Suicide by Warden.

A Brother's Price
Jerin Whistler (noble) and Keifer Porter (roguish), as love interests of the princesses.
The love interests for the Whistler sisters also fall into this category, with the roguish, uncaring, and sexually promiscuous Balin Brindle, and Cullen Moorland who is sweet and gentle.
The Whistler family and the Brindle family can also count in the way they differ: the Brindles (roguish) usually start fights at social gatherings, while the Whistlers (noble) end them, swiftly and without excessive violence. The Brindles are uncultivated country folk, while the Whistlers have manners fit for a royal court.

You've also got Thor and Loki, who interestingly portray both roles at the same time. Thor has a noble soul but acts like a crude rogue, while Loki acts like a distinguished noble but has the roguish heart.

In Knight and Rogue Series, Main characters Michael and Fisk zigzag this trope. While Michael is the nobleman and Fisk is the rogue/semi-reformed con-artist, Michael is the more rash and reckless one while Fisk is the scholarly one. Over the course of the story, it becomes increasingly difficult to really tell which one is which.

Cloud and his rival Sephiroth are, to some extent, inspired by Berserk's Guts and Griffith (in the page image), and to another extent by Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro who are generally depicted as having this trope in Japanese media. Sephiroth is more experienced, worldly, and dignified, and has a beautiful appearance, and while he is insane he acts enlightened; Cloud is more aggressive and scrappy, with a scruffier appearance and a more brittle kind of personality.

Tales of Symphonia has an example with stoic, businesslike Kratos Aurion, who remains loyal to the Big Bad, his friend and traveling companion from thousands of years ago, and the caustic, defiant Yuan, who is running La Résistance to defeat the plans of the same individual. It's more apparent in OVA and Tales of Fandom 2 flashbacks, from before both of them hit their Cynicism Catalyst: Kratos was an idealist at heart, while Yuan was far more practical and cynical even before Martel's death. Naturally, even when on different sides, they remain Vitriolic Best Buds underneath all the bitterness.

In Godzilla: King of the Monsters, he's the Noble Male to Rodan when the latter briefly challenges the former at the end only to back down. Godzilla is conscious of and actively fights to defend the world's natural order in the bigger picture, and he knows when to seek a fight and when it's more prudent to avoid it. Rodan on the other hand a ferocious, territorial Blood Knight who takes more joy than he needs to in slaughtering Monarch's Gold Squadron, he charges into a fight against Ghidorah of all creatures when severely outmatched; and his allegiances throughout the film are fluid depending upon which Alpha Titan is dominant, thus he only seems to care about Earth's natural order as much as whichever Alpha he's currently answering to does.

Final Fantasy IV has Cecil a Dark Is Not Evil Black Knight Bishōnen (who eventually atones for his sins and becomes a Paladin) as noble, and Edge, the flirtatious, impulsive Ninja fits the Roughish.
Final Fantasy VII:
Cloud and his rival Sephiroth are, to some extent, inspired by Berserk's Guts and Griffith (in the page image), and to another extent by Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro who are generally depicted as having this trope in Japanese media. Sephiroth is more experienced, worldly, and dignified, and has a beautiful appearance, and while he is insane he acts enlightened; Cloud is more aggressive and scrappy, with a scruffier appearance and a more brittle kind of personality.
Cloud and Barret. Cloud is blond, pale, blue-eyed, androgynously beautiful (but still unambiguously masculine), a former soldier, pragmatic, chivalrous, and a sword-fighter, and while he can be flashy and superficial he's ultimately quite introverted. Barret is a Hot-Blooded Scary Black Man and terrorist with a vicious temper, little ability to restrain his emotions, and a huge gun mounted onto one of his arms. Though Cloud is the flirt of the two, Barret is more experienced (having been married)—in one scene he advises Cloud to ask either Aeris or Tifa on a date, something in which Cloud claims to have no interest.
Final Fantasy X has Jecht and Auron. Jecht liked his alcohol, was boisterous, loud, and reckless. Auron was more composed, dutiful, and respectful. Both were badass Manly Men.

The third book of the Last Herald-Mage Trilogy has extremely noble and white-clad Herald-Mage Vanyel Ashkevron, impossibly gorgeous and dutiful. He's found Safety in Indifference to others, not that that keeps him from wearing himself to the bone for them, and still pines for his first lover, two decades dead. Stefan is a red-cloaked young bard taken from the streets, a gay Ladykiller in Love, and, at least initially, Only in It for the Money. It's not a complete split — Stefan is quite calculating and is ultimately The Reliable One who can weather the extremes of Van's crises and subsequent breakdowns. Stefen is in fact the Reincarnation of Vanyel's first love, Tylendel. In his previous life, despite all his virtues he was reckless in placing family ties over duty to others or even Van himself.

In Kyo Kara Maoh!, Conrad Weller (noble) is an upstanding knight, loyal to his king to the point of stupidity, actually of noble birth in both human and demon lands, and a chivalrous fighter. His best friend Jozak (roguish) is a cynical and worldly-wise spy and Combat Pragmatist who has no problem with the idea of manipulating their new, inexperienced king for his own good. Throughout the series, though, it's consistently shown that of the two, Jozak is more emotionally healthy.

A Song of Ice and Fire:
Best friends and foster brothers Ned Stark (noble) and Robert Baratheon (roguish). Ned is incredibly honorable. Robert's heart is basically in the right place too, but not so bound by honor, and he's a total slut.
Another pair of quasi-brothers, Robb Stark (noble) and Theon Greyjoy (roguish). Robb is Ned's son, and he's much like his father. Theon has a mess of conflicting feelings and loyalties, and he spins out and implodes. After sleeping with a girl he shouldn't have, Robb marries her. Theon is a slut.
Robb Stark's two most notable bannermen, the Wicked Cultured Roose Bolton and the Boisterous Bruiser Greatjon Umber. Roose is an utter monster masking his Axe-Crazy, sadistic nature behind a gentlemanly veneer and while Greatjon Umber may be quite sexist he is overall a good man.

Mizuki is almost always polite and respectfully to other people, even though he is a bit naive sometimes, a Genius Ditz, and is something of a shut-in. Tomoe's personality ranges from Jerkass to Jerk with a Heart of Gold and his interests include booze and trips to the Red Light District.

X-Men: Cyclops (noble) and Wolverine (roguish) in some depictions. As a classic scruffy Anti-Hero, Wolverine is the Roguish guy in comparison to most of the men he spends much time with (sometimes even bordering on Sensitive Guy and Manly Man).

Hetalia: Axis Powers: Germany and Prussia, with Germany as Noble and Prussia as Roguish. Prussia may have these dynamics with India (Noble) as well, judging by Hetaween 2011.
Austria and Prussia fit this dynamic. Austria is a terrible fighter who bows to others in greeting and can play classical piano music. Prussia is an arrogant warrior who insults and harasses others and doesn't know how to spell the name of the location he wants to conquer.
England is a composite of both, being disapproving gentleman sipping tea in one strip and a raging drunk swearing like the sailor he used to be in the next.
Switzerland combines the two. On one hand, he's willing to help those in need and make sacrifices for his loved ones; on the other hand, he has terrible mood swings and casually shoots at people if they get close to his territory.

Played with in Death Note. Light Yagami starts out as a noble and charismatic figure with a slight cynical morality, but turns into a tyrannic and manipulative Knight Templar. L is far better than Light morally but still uses extreme methods to achieve his goals, such as kidnapping Misa. His aloof attitude and somewhat arrogant attitude, and appearance also makes him come off as Roguish. This gets played more straight when Light loses his memories.

The Doctor and Adric in Season 18 of Doctor Who were an attempt at doing this.
Roguish: Adric is young, arrogant, relatively uneducated (despite being a star student by his own culture's standards), and tends to cheat or whine in order to get his way.
Noble: The Doctor is ancient, brooding, philosophical (despite being one of the more swashbuckling Doctors), extremely knowledgeable, and tries to keep to a strict moral code. Although the flirt of the two, he's recently lost his Implied Love Interest and seems to have shifted far beyond concern.

Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser subvert this (like so much else). Fafhrd seems like a romantic and is noted for his cleverness and singing ability. Mouser is a shifty little scoundrel. However, once you get to know them, the pragmatic and scheming Fafhrd seems a bit more Roguish and Mouser seems a bit nobler.

Innes and Ephraim in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones play it around. Looks and fighting-skills wise, archer Innes looks Noble while spear-user Ephraim looks Roguish, but their personalities say the inverse: logical, cool-headed, and No Social Skills Innes is the real Roguish one, while the charismatic, sensitive and impulsive Ephraim is more of the Noble one.
In Fire Emblem: Awakening, the roguish and street-smart Gaius has this going with his support conversations with the serene and faithful Libra and the honorable but sheltered Chrom.
In Fire Emblem Fates, there is the cynical and teasing Niles. He plays the role towards his serious lord-in-liege Leo, his boisterous partner Odin, and the Male Avatar (whom he can fall in love with).
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia has the stalwart, dutiful, and proper Forsyth and his friend Python, who is laid-back, lazy, and much more casual with his language.

Natsu e no Tobira has two of Marion's friends, Jacques and Lind. Jacques is the Roguish since he's hotheaded, emotional, and kind of a tease, while the refined and sarcastic Lind is the Noble and shows it by keeping Jacques' temper in check. This comes to a breaking point when not only tragedy hits the group, but Jacques finds out that Lind was a False Friend to Marion and violently explodes on him.

Yu-Gi-Oh!: Early on, Tristan/Honda (noble) and Joey/Jounouchi (roguish) had this dynamic, but as Joey went through Character Development, he started becoming a more heroic character... right about the same time Duke/Otohi became a recurring minor character and filled Roguish better than Joey ever had. It especially became clear in regards to their pursuit of Jou's sister, Serenity/Shizuka, with Dogged Nice Guy Tristan performing gesture after gesture of kindness and self-sacrifice towards her, while Handsome Lech Duke sweeps her off her feet with his charm.

While Starbuck is a gambler and smoker who tends to find himself in fights and generally juggles between two women (or maybe more), Apollo is more reserved when it comes to duty and women—the latter of which he, unfortunately, doesn't seem to have luck with, and is also a Parental Substitute to Boxey.

Kormac is a noble paladin type who falls hard for Eirena, your third follower, while Lyndon is a quite unrepentant rogue who is not nearly as good at attracting women as he thinks. This being Diablo, the two have Hidden Depths—Kormac is revealed to have been lied to and brainwashed by his order, while Lyndon is doing everything in his power to pay off the Merchant's Guild and get his brother out of prison.

The three male Maverick Hunters of the Mega Man X series by the time of X8 and Command Mission form a spectrum like the original Mega Man above.
X is the noble male, being a pacifistic guy who constantly struggles between wanting to create peace with humanity and trying not to kill any more of his own kind even if they're the bad guys.
Zero is in-between, having the same desire of peace as X but with fewer compunctions for fighting and killing, and he's had his fair share of bad experiences that shape him.
Axl is the roguish one; while he's a good guy in general, as he's younger and less experienced, he's motivated more by being in action and defeating enemies and shows more fun at doing it than his partners.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Angel:
The two ensouled vampires Buffy has been romantically involved with: Angel is noble, selfless, calm, reserved, and generally chivalrous and gentlemanly. He goes to great lengths to help people and to achieve redemption for his past. While he has had other relationships, he's primarily bound to his love for Buffy. Spike, in contrast, is roguish and nearly Angel's complete opposite: reckless, wild, emotional, and bursting with blunt snark. He is, though, fairly devoted to Buffy as well despite his sharper edges, and was fixated on Drusilla steadfastly before that. Ironically, if they had coexisted in their original human lives, it would have been the reverse. Liam (Angel) was a "drunken, whoring layabout, and a terrible disappointment to [his] parents", and William Pratt (Spike) was a sensitive upper-class poet devoted to his ailing mother (the Cockney accent is an affectation, his natural accent was posh). Adding to the comparison, Angel is Spike's grandsire (the Master sired Darla who sired Angel who sired Drusilla who sired Spike) and their original names, Liam and William, are variants of the same name.

Roguish: Jayne is the opposite extreme, big time, being violent and selfish.

Seven and Chen Shi from Demons and Scissors. Seven (roguish) is a lazy Deadpan Snarker who not afraid to fight dirty with scissors and can be very badass whenever he remembered his past while Chen Shi (noble) is a naive but gentle and hardworking Nice Guy (despite being a Big Eater) who is too soft to kill a demon and his exorcist powers are radish-themed. Their appearances are also different. Seven has Creepy Shadowed Undereyes and his shoulder-length hair is mainly tied up in a short, messy chicken comb-like ponytail while Chen Shi has innocent, Tin Tin-ish dots for eyes and kept his very long hair in a neat bun.

In Fire Emblem: Awakening, the roguish and street-smart Gaius has this going with his support conversations with the serene and faithful Libra and the honorable but sheltered Chrom.

Saiyuki: Sha Gojyo (roguish) and Cho Hakkai (noble). This being Saiyuki however, Hakkai isn't entirely as noble as he seems.

In Chronicles of the Kencyrath, Jame goes to Tentir and meets and slowly befriends two guys. At first glance, friendly, fine-featured Timmon looks like the Noble Male, and surly, burly Gorbel looks like the Roguish Male. But the trope is slowly zigzagged. As you get to know them, "Noble" Timmon turns out Brilliant, but Lazy, and "Roguish" Gorbel to be hardworking and driven, and quite honorable. Timmon's also kind of a slut, while Gorbel never shows interest in anyone. So in the end, even though Timmon is a good diplomat and Gorbel is a good hunter, they're both Rounded Character with Hidden Depths and more complex than the simple Noble and Roguish dichotomy.

The Sunne in Splendour:
Early in the novel, the future Richard III has role models in his two oldest brothers. Edward, the future king, is a carousing, womanizing, fun-loving and mischievous figure, who also happens to be a brilliant warrior. Edmund is the brave, kind, wise-beyond-his years, Too Good for This Sinful Earth mentor to his sensitive youngest brother.
When Richard grows up, he steps into the "noble" role to Edward's rogue, becoming a fierce warrior and fair governor of his own lands. He is intensely loyal to Edward, even standing by him when he is deposed for a brief time. After some youthful dalliances, he becomes a loving and faithful husband to Anne, and he very much frowns upon the debauchery of his brother's court.

The Fugitive plays around with these roles: Sam Gerard is the cop in the equation, but he's the Roguish one, while Richard Kimble, the fugitive, is Noble.
