Meryl Silverburgh, Metal Gear Solid Series

A stalwart of the Metal Gear Solid series, Meryl is a rookie agent in the first game. Despite her diminutive stature and young age, she can do one-armed pushups and take a sniper bullet with the best of them. Plus, she's the daughter of former Foxhound leader Col. Roy Campbell and has proven herself to be a valuable sidekick to Solid Snake. Now she is making her long-awaited return as head of Foxhound in this year's sequel Metal Gear Solid 4: The Guns of Patriots.
Pros: She's got the genes, the looks, the skills and the power.
Cons: She can be kind of a nag, and she's a bit of a Daddy's girl.
Should Be Played By: Rachel McAdams, who could be a dead ringer for Meryl.
