* My theories:
** [[BacktotheFuture Doctor Emmet Brown]]: The Characters need to be fun with converse with, and have the license relatively easy to obtain. Telltale has the BTTF license, so it wouldn't be too hard. Playstyle is a mix of Strong Bad's bluffing and Tycho's Cautiousness. Unlock would be a Brain-Wave Analyzer hat and BTTF blueprints [Building Reskins, like the teleporter has a speedometer and starts working at 88, etc.] for the Engineer.
** [[TeamFortress2 RED Spy]]: We need another TF2 character, as the reason many bought the game in the first place is because of the Heavy and the Unlocks. The original game contained two outrageously crazy guys [Strong Bad, Max] and two others, crazy but quiet [Heavy, Tycho]. Spy fills the quiet quota, others at the table could accuse him of sapping their cards, and he would tell stories about Scout's Mom. Unlock would be a handcarved Butterfly Knife.

** [[Left4Dead Ellis]] would be fun to have in the game, too. As for the Engineer... Well, really, almost ALL of the TeamFortress2 classes are elligible, the possible exceptions being Pyro (who can't speak) and maybe Scout (who isn't the most patient character out there).

He's trained as an assasin that uses a knife and flees after killing his victim. The story would also explain why the Heavy hates Spies so much despite not being one of the most Spy vulnerable classes.

[[WMG:Symbolic poker player archetypes!]]
Your opponents would all love to win, but they approach the game with vastly different attitudes. Let's compare!
Max: The cheery/chatty guy who's there more to chat than play. Often the guy who'll get a conversation started. He's also the kind of guy who doesn't mind losing. Heck, he'll sometimes say "That was fun!" without sarcasm when he busts out.
Strong Bad: That guy who thinks he can totally win the game every time, easy. He also happens to lose every time, easy (or at least, that's the case for this troper). Not as great a player as he wants you to believe.
Heavy: The big guy who specializes in intimidation tactics. For one thing, he's already the BigGuy. For another thing, he loves to goad you into a challenge ("Time to show your honor. Can you beat me?").
