	Homestar Runner	The Hero from Hero's Quest (EGA)	The look of the player's avatar from the original version of the Sierra role-playing game Hero's Quest: So You Want To Be a Hero. The series was retitled Quest for Glory after a copyright dispute with Milton Bradley over the name to their HeroQuest board game. The original release of the game featured the limited palette of EGA graphics, hence the bright colors of Homestar's costume. A rerelease used VGA graphics that allowed for more realistic colors.

	Strong Bad	Sludge Vohaul from Space Quest II	Mad scientist Sludge Vohaul was a recurring villain from Sierra's Space Quest game series. The arch-enemy of Roger Wilco and an evil clone of Slash Vohaul, Sludge Vohaul is bent on galactic domination. Strong Bad's costume is specifically inspired by Sludge Vohaul's appearance in Space Quest II, where he sits within a mecha costume atop a chair. The costume also draws further inspiration from a fan remake of the game, specifically Sludge Vohaul's blue skin.	Wikipedia article
