Umptyscope: Rupert Giles from Buffy?
Mister Six: I'd say so.
Lale: Isn't Gandalf more of a Mentor?
Malimar: How about Jolee Bindo from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic?
Wolviepris: Minor correction: isn't Kratos the ancient one, not Regal?
Arakhor: Jolee is definitely a Cool Old Guy :)
OtteryLexa: The old guy from the 1632: Ring of Fire series book set in Venice. Called something like Juan Cascador y Ortiz. Mike Stearns probably qualifies as well.
Noneofyourbusiness: How would killing off Rufus be Author Appeal ?
VAD: Because they take great delight in killing off the guest stars that the audience has taken a shine to?
Anonymous Troper: I, uh, removed "Chuck Norris is a tool" from Real Life, as it seems to be somewhat counterintuitive to the page's intent.
