** ''VideoGame/Yakuza4'' Introduced 3 new main characters alongside returning protagonist Kazama Kiryu, with each of them geared towards a different combat style to contrast him. Kiryu is the Balance, a JackOfAllStats with the most Heat Moves and combos for every situation but not exceeding the others in their specialties. Shun Akiyama is the Skill-based FragileSpeedster, having the highest mobility and combo potential but lowest damage. Taiga Saejima is the Power-based MightyGlacier who trades mobility for charge attack combos and the most damaging Heat Moves. Masayoshi Tanimura is the Gimmick; While every character has grab and counter attacks, Tanimura's Heat Moves and combos are built with his unique counters and grab attacks in mind.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Literature/TheFourGospels'' manage to have shades of this: Mark is a short and rapid narrative to the point where the word "immediately" is practically his catchphrase, while Luke is much more detailed and verbose. Matthew strikes a balance between the two, and John goes off the rails by dint of being loaded with philosophical sermons to ContemplateOurNavels levels.

** The four main characters became this in the [[{{Retraux}} classic games]] ''[[UpdatedRerelease Sonic Origins]]'' and ''VideoGame/SonicSuperstars'': Sonic is the Balance, the levels being built with him in mind, his moveset being the base for the others and his only gimmick being the Drop Dash; Knuckles is the Power, as he can destroy walls while running and he can climb walls to find secrets; Tails is the Skill, his (time limited) flying ability being a way to cheese levels and find secrets easier; and Amy is the Gimmick, as her running speed feels slower than the others, but her Insta-Shield is easy to use even by accident, her Drop Dash lets her more control than Sonic’s, and she can even double jump in ''Superstars''. [[spoiler:In this same game, Trip is a Power and Gimmick character, as she cumulates Amy’s double jump with a spiky armor that allows her to climb walls like Knuckles, the game becomes harder with her, and her Super Mode changes the way you control her.]]
