Character »
Extraterrestrials appear in many video games in a variety of styles. Sometimes they're evil, sometimes they're benevolent, and sometimes they're very similar to humans.
Whether it's a hero's turn to the dark side or a villain becoming a hero, it's usually unexpected and will bring a whole new moral dimension to the story. Sometimes, they change they sides more than once.
The Lombax is an animal-like alien, who are nearly all extinct from the known galaxies. Ratchet is the only known surviving member of the species.
These are the characters who may or may not wind up in a relationship with the protagonist of the game. Sometimes the player gets to choose if this relationship will develop, while in other instances it is just left up to your imagination at the end of the game.
Even in settings with many different races, sometimes a specific character will be of a race no one else in the setting recognizes. While usually it is a plot point, occasionally it is a running joke that nobody knows what species they belong to. Usually the characters are very unique.
Just as heroes sometimes fall from grace, occasionally someone who works for the forces of evil will turn their life around and become a good guy.
