* In ''Literature/{{You}}'', main character Russell frequently sees the heroes of the game he's working on, who offer encouragement and cryptic advice.

* ''VideoGame/StarFox'' fanfiction "[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4473762/1/One-Death-Away One Death Away]]": The main character, little better than a military dropout, spends nearly two years in a POW camp regularly suffering torture, but finds solace in the companionship of another prisoner- an old colonel who he never meets, but can speak to through the thin walls of their cells. The colonel encourages him, puts him through an exercise regime, and tells him old war stories to pass on his experience, before helping him plan a breakout. As the escaped prisoners are heading home, he asks if the colonel is there, but is told that the only colonel that was with them was executed months ago.
