It can be a cruel life in a typical fantasy story. The Evil Overlord’s new government has ruthlessly taken power, and The Empire rules the land with an iron fist and is slowly but steadily taking over the world. The people are oppressed and overtaxed, but the enemy is just too powerful for anyone to overcome. What can they do? Never fear, the Rebel Leader is here! Swinging into action (sometimes literally) with their band of loyal followers, they lead the charge against evil and fight to free the people! Almost every rebel group has one of these, a heroic and free-spirited person with rugged good looks and a perfect grin. Sometimes a series bucks the trend by having a Plucky Girl lead the rebels, or perhaps someone who was the legitimate ruler and is trying to get back their country. Usually the Rebel Leader becomes an ally to the main cast, using their expertise and resources to distract the enemy, promise to help out at the final battle or band together against a common goal. There's also a chance of a Love Triangle with the hero's Love Interest as she swoons over the Rebel Leader's good looks. If the Rebel Leader is female, on the other hand, there's a high probability of her becoming the hero's Love Interest herself. However, in other series things may not be as they seem. Sometimes the rebel leader may make questionable choices in the fight against the empire, perhaps they're just using the rebel cause to further their own agenda, perhaps they're abusing the very people they're trying to help, or are willing to take down the enemy no matter what the cost. Sometimes the Rebel Leader will be just as bad as the Evil Overlord they’re trying to take down, often leading to Meet the New Boss should they take over. Occasionaly they will be the Big Bad rebelling against The Good King or a similarly peaceful government, in which case they are a Dark Messiah, a leader who is a very questionable 'savior'. Or perhaps they’re just a Doomed Moral Victor if the odds are really that bad. |

There are two major rebel leaders in Twig, the "Shepherd" Reverend Mauer and Cynthia Imlay. The Shepherd, an ex-soldier, is a populist leader who formed and manipulates his army and network of informants through words and promises, while Cynthia leads a more traditional scrappy band of rebels. Later on, Sy takes over an Academy and becomes a rebel leader as well. While the Crown and Academy do meet many points for an Evil Empire, the rebel cells have no moral advantage, making the conflict more of Order (the Crown/Academy) versus Chaos (the rebellion). | |

Dragon Age: Dragon Age II: Anders wants mage Hawke to be this since s/he is a charismatic individual and one of the most influential people in the city. Hawke can work with him without quite assuming the "leader" bit, actively oppose him, or joke that they just want to watch with snacks. In the endgame, siding with the mages turns Hawke into a worldwide symbol of resistance against Templars. Dragon Age: Inquisition: The Herald of Andraste is accused of being this in the beginning, with their detractors claiming that the Herald is taking advantage of the unrest in Thedas to claim power for themselves using the Inquisition. This is ignoring that not only is the Inquisition the only group actively trying to fix the problems in Thedas such as the gigantic tear in the fabric of reality, the Herald isn't even its leader (at least initially). |

Kelsier from the first Mistborn book. He has the rugged good looks, defiant grin, and questionable end-justifies-means morality, and is also something of a Dark Messiah and a self-styled Doomed Moral Victor. Given a twist with Quellion, a character from the third book who is in many ways a dark shadow of Kelsier, who shows that it's not always pretty when one of these guys actually succeeds in taking power. In his attempts to eradicate all traces of the old system, Quellion becomes just as tyrannical as the decadent nobility ever were. Of course, it didn't help that the Big Bad was prodding him in that direction. | |

Elamba of Now and Then, Here and There is the fierce leader of the Zari-Bars Resistance against Hellywood. He's brash, tough, and very much in favor of violent means to combat the tyrannical empire threatening the devastated future earth. Unfortunately, this puts him at odds with both the heroes and his own people, since his plans just further endanger them. It gets to the point that he goes over the edge in his vendetta and becomes the secondary antagonist of the final few episodes. | |

Hard to Be a God features Arata the Hunchback, a professional rebel leader. He was merely Arata when he led his first rebellion, but despite leaving bits and pieces of himself all over the empire, through many, MANY failed uprisings, he's still willing to shoot as many dogs as necessary to make Arkanar a slightly less Crapsack World. | |

In Star Trek: Discovery, the leader of the alien resistance to the Mirror Universe's Terran Empire is known as Firewolf. He's actually an albino Klingon named Voq. Burnham questions him about how he managed to overcome the Klingon Proud Warrior Race Guy mentality to unite so many different races. Mirror!Voq explains that it helps to have a common enemy, i.e. the Terrans. The conversation is interrupted by Ash Tyler (who is really Prime!Voq as a Manchurian Agent), when his Voq personality surfaces, enraged at Mirror!Voq's perceived betrayal of Klingon ideals. | |

Detroit: Become Human: Markus, one of the Player Characters, will become the leader of the android rebellion and spearhead several campaigns. It's up to the player whether Markus takes a peaceful Thou Shalt Not Kill path or a violent Well-Intentioned Extremist one, which impact its outcome. However, if Markus is either killed or fails so many of his missions that he's kicked out of the movement before the climax, the less charismatic and more unstable North will become the new Rebel Leader, inevitably leading to its collapse. A special ending, wherein Markus is out of the picture and North dies will see Connor, if he breaks from his programming, become the new rebel leader by the end. However, CyberLife will then reveal it used him as a Manchurian Agent, ending in a Bolivian Army Ending as Connor puts a gun to his head. |

Satan, in Paradise Lost and other works. Subverted, in that he's actually just deluded himself into believing he's this: his "rebellion" is really just a temper tantrum against God for not holding him in as high esteem as he thinks he deserves, and then later trying to make everyone else as miserable as he is once he's lost. Despite his self-deception, he has been interpreted as a Tragic Villain or a Byronic Hero, especially by modern readers. | |

BioShock Infinite: Daisy Fitzroy is the leader of the Vox Populi, who fight against the xenophobic Founders. However, whatever idealistic motive she had has since been worn down by the time of the game to simply blind hatred, to the point that she'll justify killing the children of her enemies as "pulling weeds from the roots". However, the Burial at Sea DLC shows that she was faking the child-murdering part under the orders of the Luteces in order to goad Elizabeth into killing her, thereby strengthening her resolve and in truth was horrified by the idea of murdering children. | |

Independence leaders against foreign colonists (such as Andrés Bonifacio and Emilio Aguinaldo, two of the most prominent revolutionary leaders against Spain; Aguinaldo then went on to fight the United States, along with the likes of people like General Antonio Luna and the young General Gregorio del Pilar, both stars of recent sensationalist Biopics when it reneged on its promise to guarantee Philippine independence), and | |

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix When Umbridge actively sabotages any chance of the students learning to defend themselves (not because she's working for the villains, but because the Ministry refuses to believe Voldemort's back), the title character and his friends start a secret defense group. In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Neville, Ginny, and Luna take up the role after the villains really take over the school, turning the group Harry started into a full-fledged resistance movement against the Carrows. | |

Homestuck: The Summoner and the Sufferer led two major revolts in Alternia and are also Tavros and Karkat's ancestors. The former is responsible for Alternia becoming a Teenage Wasteland, as the troll empress responded to his revolt by banning all adult trolls from Alternia, while the latter is so infamous even mentioning the symbols of his rebellion in one's private journal is grounds for execution. Not that this stops Mindfang from talking about it. | |

The Order of the Stick: Deconstructed twice. Haley at first appears to be one of these for the Azure City Resistance, but she reveals to Celia that there are three separate and mutually hostile resistance groups, the other two of which despise her for entirely different reasons. The Last of His Kind paladin Thanh is ultimately chosen as a compromise candidate. In the Empire of Blood arc, the Hero of Another Story Amun-Zora plays this role. A large part of Elan's character development involves him realising that it can't be him (whatever traditional storytelling tropes might demand), because the Order's existing quest to stop Xykon and Save the World is more important than defeating his small-fry Evil Overlord father. |

Skyrim: Ulfric Stormcloak serves in this role for the Stormcloak Rebellion. Of course how evil his enemies are and how moral he is is up for debate. While the Thalmor-led Aldmeri Dominion are Obviously Evil and The Empire signed a peace treaty, they hardly did it by choice, the conflict Ulfric started weakened them further (and gave the Thalmor an excuse to ensure the ban on Talos worship, something the Empire was happy to ignore until Ulfric started complaining about it, was being enforced) and the non-Nords (particularly the Dark Elf refuges and Argonians) of the city are freely abused with Fantastic Racism (especially those who don't want to take sides in the war). His treatment of the Forsworn also echoes his complaints about the Empire and it's implied the Thalmor have manipulated him into starting a civil war (while he was a POW, after being captured while serving in the Imperial army) to weaken Skyrim. Meanwhile, the Forsworn, a terrorist group within the aforementioned Reachmen culture, has their own in Madanach, the King in Rags, who wants to see the Reach and its people granted independence. However, it's quite a stretch to call him a good guy, seeing as he's fully willing to commit genocide on the Nords if he gets his way. The game also implies that his warriors are cannibalistic rapists who wear the skin and bones of their victims as their armor. |

By the end of the series, Luis ends up being presented as this trope in the media and being considered this by many due to being the person who tells the public about the government's most nefarious plans, already being a known face to the parents of children who were taken away by the government under falses pretenses, and getting the support of many law enforcers. |

2000 AD clearly loves this trope: Nemesis the Warlock: Nemesis is the leader of Credo, which encompasses both the alliance of alien planets united against the Termight Empire, as well as the human resistance on Earth. Nemesis often engages in raiding parties on Termight itself against Torquemada and his forces, which incenses the Grand Master so much that he has dubbed Nemesis the "arch-deviant". The Fall of Deadworld had a loose, unofficial one in the form of Walter Tucker, Patti Halliday, & Agatha Proudwater, before the Dark Judges infiltrated and destroyed them, but not before revealing that disposed former US President Boone was alive & well, and also leading a resistance movement against them. By the end of the following story, the major players of the Resistance are looking to be Jess Childs, Agatha Proudwater, El Cadaver, Byke, and possibly also Judge Ava Eastwood. Judge Dredd has Dredd himself act like this every time the City has had a crisis, usually working alongside somebody else as well; most notably with Fergee & Judge-Tutor Griffin in The Day the Law Died, Psi-Judge Anderson in Necropolis, Galen DeMarco and Judge Hershey in The Doomsday Scenario, Judge Smiley, Dirty Frank, and Jack Point in The Cold Deck/Trifecta, and Judge Rico, Dolman, Psi Judge Lewis, and Texas City Judge Knox in Every Empire Falls Necrophim has the Fallen Angel Uriel and his lover, Lady Cythea, form one alongside King Jotunheim, the former ruler of the Blizzard Kingdoms, and fellow fallen Angels, Ezarat & Valion, and allied itself with the Angels under one of their leaders, Raziel, against the Big Bad Ensemble leaders of Hell, Lucifer & Neboron, and the Demons under Lord Astaroth. Nikolai Dante had the Revolutionary Forces led by Nikolai Dante, Jena Makarova, Lady Jocasta Romanov, Lulu Romanov, Papa Yeltsin, Katarina Dante, & Arkady Romanovnote actually the Big Bad, Dmitri Romanov, who has secretly taken over his body until The Reveal. Afterwards, Katarina Dante briefly replaces her son alongside Sergeant Elena Kurakin until the latter manages to find and help him recover from his Moral Event Horizon. He then re-joins the revolution again alongside his mother Katarina, Sergeant Kurakin, and the remaining Romanov family membersnote Lulu & Viktor Romanov/Dante And before that, in the "Amerika" storyline, there was the Amerikan Resistance led by various front-line military commanders and spies,note which acted as the intelligence and financial leadership for the various New York branches such as Major Liberty and Carmen Suarez respectively. Strontium Dog had both Johnny Alpha and Middenface MacNulty established as leaders during the Mutant Uprising, Middenface as General of the Scotland division and Johnny as General Armz aide-de-camp. Other rebel group leaders like Dai the Death and Bonnie Charlie Prince also appear. |

Halo: Halo 2 has Sesa 'Refumee (referred to solely as "the Heretic Leader" in-game), who leads a small rebellion against the Prophets after learning the truth about the Forerunners and the Halo rings from 343 Guilty Spark, but ends up being killed by Arbiter Thel 'Vadamee. Ironically enough, 'Vadamee himself later takes on this role for the Elites as a whole. Admiral Mattius Drake, the leader of the New Colonial Alliance, managed to be both this and The Mole since he was a UNSC admiral until his true allegiance was discovered after a small NCA force attempted to steal the UNSC Infinity. In Halo Wars 2, Atriox leads the Banished, a faction that had rebelled against the Covenant while the latter was still fighting humanity. The most infamous figure of the early Insurrection was Colonel Robert Watts, a Marine defector who became the main founder of the United Rebel Front. The Spartan-IIs' very first mission involved capturing him. |

In The Stolen Throne, Moira the Rebel Queen is this during the Orlesian occupation of Ferelden. However, she is betrayed and killed, leaving her young son Maric as the only surviving member of the Ferelden royal line. Maric does not fit this trope at first, leaving the role to Arl Rendorn Guerrin (until the Arl is killed in a disastrous battle with Orlesian forces). Over the course of the novel, Maric matures and becomes more this, although he shares the role with Loghain Mac Tir, who is more proficient in the matter of war. This ends by the end of the novel when Ferelden is liberated, and Maric is officially crowned king. | |

In Steven Universe, Rose Quartz was the former leader of the Crystal Gems, a rebel group that opposed the destruction of all life on Earth at the hands of their Homeworld. She was also the leader of the Homeworld colony on Earth in her true self as Pink Diamond. She created the rebellion as an excuse for her to abandon the colonization effort because she had grown to love Earth and humanity and knew that the colony would be their doom. Sadly, her senior Diamonds refused to allow the colonization effort to end, forcing Pink Diamond to take more drastic measures, with dire consequences. | |

Eureka Seven featured Holland as the leader of his own resistance movement, Gekkostate. The only problem is that physically assaults one of his own subordinates, Renton Thurston, for "stealing" Nirvash Type ZERO and Eureka from him, making him more akin to a Bad Boss than the rebel leader he was meant to be. In other words, for a rebel leader, he sure as heck acts like even more of a child than the actual child, to the point that his own girlfriend, Talho, and most of Gekkostate would call him out on it. By the end of the first half, though, he accepts the fact that Renton is The Chosen One and just goes back to leading Gekkostate properly while leaving control of the Nirvash TypeZERO and Eureka's protection to Renton. | |

Gundam: Mobile Suit Gundam: Gihren Zabi technically counts, albeit as the leader of an incredibly totalitarian, genocidal and hypocritical uprising against the Earth Federation. Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam has Blex Forer, an Earth Federation politician who leads the Anti-Earth Union Group resistance against the Titans. Lacus in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED was the leader of a resistance group fighting against the leader of her own country. To that point, Lacus counts as an Expy of Leia Organa. Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans has McGillis Fareed and Liza Enza, the leaders of the Revolutionary Fleet in the Gjallarhorn civil war. McGillis portrays himself as a quasi-messianic figure looking to bring some much-needed reforms to Gjallarhorn (a persona that's further bolstered when he obtains Gundam Bael) while Liza is a young and idealistic officer who acts as The Face of the uprising and gives a televised Rousing Speech when the revolutionaries finally make their move. |

Red Dead Redemption: Abraham Reyes is a negative version of this, being an egotistical Glory Hound whose talents solely consist of using fancy words to rile up peasants. Of course, John doesn't care as long as Reyes can get him to Bill Williamson and Javier Escuela (which he does). In the epilogue, as Presidente, he does not improve Mexico in any way and becomes just another dictator. | |

Leonie Beaumort of Aviary Attorney is fighting a regime that perhaps isn't deliberately malicious but is definitely negligent and uncaring. She simmers with constant anger and struggles with not putting Revenge Before Reason and how much violence is correct, but is after all a Reasonable Authority Figure. It's just too bad she has manipulative 'allies' who want everything to get very very bloody. | |

Fire Emblem on Forums has a few examples: Chains of Horai: Noriaki Kiritani, mysterious leader of the Amatsuan Resistance. It's confirmed that he's one of the Cursed, thirteen individuals cursed to turn into animals from the Eastern Zodiac, and may thus be linked to the Empress. Mortal Transgressions: Kane, leader of Virtuous, leads a violent group to overthrow the corrupt kingdoms of Purgus, and is a Well-Intentioned Extremist willing to do what it takes to get it done. |

The Elder Scrolls: St. Alessia, founder of the First Cyrodiilic Empire, got her start as the leader of the Alessian Revolt, a rebellion of Cyrodiil's human slave population against their Ayleid masters. After escaping slavery herself, Alessia prayed to the Aedra for aid against the (primarily) Daedra-worshiping Ayleids. The Aedra answered as part of a Bargain with Heaven, sending aid (both subtle and direct). Alessia would further ally with the Nordic Empire and rebel Ayleid lords, eventually driving the hostile Ayleids out of Cyrodiil completely. Throughout the backstory, the Reachmen (tribal inhabitants who are primitive in dress and technology of the Reach region in western Skyrim) have resisted all foreign conquerors dating all the way back to the time of the First Tamriellic Empire, thousands of years ago. Red Eagle was the first to unify the people of the Reach during the era of the First Empire. He was also the first to ally the Reachmen with the Hagravens, as well as the first to become a Briarheart. Durcorach the Black Drake was arguably the most successful leader of the Reachmen, even capturing the Ruby Throne of Cyrodiil for a time during the 2nd Era Interregnum. Skyrim: Ulfric Stormcloak serves in this role for the Stormcloak Rebellion. Of course how evil his enemies are and how moral he is is up for debate. While the Thalmor-led Aldmeri Dominion are Obviously Evil and The Empire signed a peace treaty, they hardly did it by choice, the conflict Ulfric started weakened them further (and gave the Thalmor an excuse to ensure the ban on Talos worship, something the Empire was happy to ignore until Ulfric started complaining about it, was being enforced) and the non-Nords (particularly the Dark Elf refuges and Argonians) of the city are freely abused with Fantastic Racism (especially those who don't want to take sides in the war). His treatment of the Forsworn also echoes his complaints about the Empire and it's implied the Thalmor have manipulated him into starting a civil war (while he was a POW, after being captured while serving in the Imperial army) to weaken Skyrim. Meanwhile, the Forsworn, a terrorist group within the aforementioned Reachmen culture, has their own in Madanach, the King in Rags, who wants to see the Reach and its people granted independence. However, it's quite a stretch to call him a good guy, seeing as he's fully willing to commit genocide on the Nords if he gets his way. The game also implies that his warriors are cannibalistic rapists who wear the skin and bones of their victims as their armor. |

In The Shattered Kingdoms, two or three kinds of rebel leadership can be spotted. Daryan is heir to the Shadari kingship (a fact kept secret to the occupying Norlanders) but has a friendship and a romance that cross racial lines in a way that would be unacceptable to most Shadari if they knew, and doesn't really want the burdens of leadership anyway. Faroth, meanwhile, certainly intends to be in charge of the rebellion, but isn't particularly effectual, is obsessed with excluding other potential leaders, and is more like a gang boss than a hero. A third character, Harotha, has a significant role but tends to manipulate and chivvy rather than lead (a fact which causes her problems when Daryan decides he doesn't want to be lead around by the nose anymore). In the end, none of them are really the reason the rebellion succeeds, although they all had some impact on how it played out. | |

Lelouch from Code Geass leads the Black Knights by Living a Double Life as Zero, but their relationship is kind of...complicated. On the one hand, Zero leads the Black Knights very effectively, making what was once a loose collection of rebel cells into a full-fledged revolutionary army. On the other hand, it's not entirely clear if he truly believes in the Japanese independence movement, or is just using the Black Knights to act out the grudge he has against the Britannian Empire. For their part, the Knights don't fully trust him due to his hidden identity and suspect motives but are painfully aware that they would never have had a fighting chance against The Empire if Zero hadn't taken over. That doesn't stop them from feeling "used" when Zero's identity is revealed, and then turning on him. | |

Magic: The Gathering's Mercadian Masques block had a creature type called, well, Rebel. Basically, it involves bringing creatures out from your library. Lin Sivvi, who rebelled against the Phyrexians on Rath, fits this trope and was actually a bit of a Game-Breaker back in the day. More recent Rebel leaders aren't quite so broken: Koth, Jor Kadeen, Melira, and Kemba had so game-breaking about them in the Scars of Mirrodin block. | |

In military thriller Victoria, protagonist John Rumford sort of plays this role himself at first, leading a small militia of fellow military veterans fighting against the abuses of the near-future dystopian and massively corrupt federal government. However, he soon relinquishes overall leadership to the more politically savvy William Kraft, concentrating instead on the military operations that are his own forte. | |

The Deathstalker series by Simon R. Green has some wonderfully reluctant rebel leaders — notably 1) the title character, a historian named Owen Deathstalker, who got dragged into leading a resistance by his dead father's plotting and the evil empress's overreaction, and 2) Jack Random, professional rebel, who's led so many valiant-but-failed resistance movements over the years that he's ready to quit and fade into the shadows. He's still got it, though. | |

The Secret World features Shani, head of the Maraya resistance fighters in their struggle against the Atenists. A hardened desert warrior, Shani serves as the Marya's lone grounding in reality, in contrast to the inexperienced young men and women under her leadership - and of course, the ever-eccentric Nassir. Also, it's revealed that Tutankhamun actually served as this to the first generator of the Marya, having founded the "Young Warriors" in his attempts to unseat his father, Akhenaten. Arguably the most spectacular example to be found in the entire game is Theodore Wicker; an Oxford-educated demonologist and portal mage turned Demon of Human Origin, he's currently leading a demonic revolution in Hell to overthrow the Devil himself and restore Hell to the paradise it once was. |

Commander Poe Dameron in The Force Awakens. Though not the highest-ranking member of the Resistance, Poe is very much someone that the members, especially his pilots, look up to and trust. He basically lays out the plan for the attack on Starkiller Base, with the officers above him in rank assenting. As the leader of their X-wing squadrons, it is made clear that the other pilots, many of whom are less-experienced, draw a lot of confidence from having him in the air with them. Poe is also extremely handsome, further fitting the trope. The film's opening crawl describes him as Leia's "most daring pilot". | |

Brütal Legend: Lars Halford serves as the leader of Ironheade, an army of humans who wish to break free of slavery to the Tainted Coil. Before Ironheade, however, there was the Black Tear Rebellion, led by Riggnarok, who turned out to be Eddie's father who traveled to the future. | |

Halo 2 has Sesa 'Refumee (referred to solely as "the Heretic Leader" in-game), who leads a small rebellion against the Prophets after learning the truth about the Forerunners and the Halo rings from 343 Guilty Spark, but ends up being killed by Arbiter Thel 'Vadamee. Ironically enough, 'Vadamee himself later takes on this role for the Elites as a whole. | |

In XCOM 2, technically you are one in a Featureless Protagonist sort of way, since you're the Commander of a global resistance trying to overthrow Vichy Earth's government and retake the planet. The War of the Chosen adds three more, each with their own distinct resistance group: Konstantine "Volk" Volikov of the Reapers, a grizzled survivalist who shuns alien technology; Betos of the Skirmishers, the first Rogue Drone among the aliens' hybrid peacekeepers who seeks to liberate her kind and overthrow their enslavers; and "Geist" of the Templars, head of a cult of psionicists that believes the alien Elders are subverting Earth's psychic potential. Unfortunately, the three groups all hate each other - the Reapers despise the Skirmishers over the losses suffered when the latter were still part of ADVENT and hunting the former, the Skirmishers look down upon the Reapers' habit of eating the aliens they defeat, both factions consider the Templars a bunch of psionics-obsessed lunatics, and the Templars in turn sneer at the other groups for being blind to the "true nature of the world." Winning these leaders' trust through joint operations and mutual aid is a vital part of strategic gameplay. | |

Dragon Age II: Anders wants mage Hawke to be this since s/he is a charismatic individual and one of the most influential people in the city. Hawke can work with him without quite assuming the "leader" bit, actively oppose him, or joke that they just want to watch with snacks. In the endgame, siding with the mages turns Hawke into a worldwide symbol of resistance against Templars. | |

Star Wars Legends: Star Wars: Invasion: After the Vong conquer Artorias, King Caled Galfridian forms its few free survivors into a resistance movement and sets about terrorizing and sabotaging the invaders. X-Wing Rogue Squadron: Elscol leads the Cilpar resistance. She's far from a Plucky Girl and is much too driven and hurt to smile or trust easily. |

Cult of Personality has a villainous example in the form of the oWn Medic. He formed oWn in an attempt to rebel against BLU, the company he used to work with, and their rival RED. He does so by assimilating mercenaries from both companies through propaganda or by defeating them in combat, proving his superiority. With a sizable enough army, he invaded numerous territories of RED and BLU, taking in defects from both companies. | |

Red Mars Trilogy: Arkady Bogdanov lays a lot of groundwork for the First Martian Revolution, and winds up becoming a major political figure. He dies in the opening stages of the revolution, being immolated after the dome he's in has its physical plant hacked to increase oxygen levels to the point flesh burns. He's a major political figure because the Bogdanovists he inspired continue his legacy over the rest of the series. | |

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines: Nines Rodriguez is the face of the Anarch movement, and the guy that the other Anarchs in downtown L.A. look up to. He'd really rather not be leading anything, wanting to be on the same level as his fellow man, but he's the only Anarch level-headed and charismatic enough to keep the other Anarchs from descending into chaos. Several elders in the Camarilla admit to a grudging respect for Nines, a few even hoping that he can come around to their way of thinking. | |

Revolution: Commander Wayne Ramsey of the Resistance. He only appears in "The Stand", "Ghosts", and "Clue". He doesn't actually do all that much, and the episode "Clue" results in Jim Hudson killing him off. It is clear that the rebel leadership is sorely lacking in tactical and organizational competence and an extremely reluctant Miles Matheson has to step in and take leadership. Ironically, he is the one responsible for creating the situation that he is now rebelling against. | |
