It’s going to be hard to beat Day#3’s avatar of Dean Winchester as The Hunter (people seem to like him for some reason?), but here goes nothing!
Day#4’s Archetype-Avatar is none other than the Oracle: foreteller of terrible things, all-seeing but never-believed, psychic and medium!
For this choice I name Hemlock Grove’s Destiny Rumancek! Never mind that she actually makes her living as a psychic, her gifts are undeniably real and very potent. And like all good Oracles, no one ever listens to her warnings!
I have a hard time ‘seeing’ a better option for the Oracle avatar (see what I did there?)
Zed Martin from Constantine
From the wiki
“She gets visions from objects and people that she touches, and would often record these visions by sketching them. Constantine describes her as a “bitta”, or someone with “a bitta everything” in her, which in her case includes powers of precognition, retrocognition, and clairtangence. Her innate abilities bring on some powerful emotional connections and often put her at odds with Constantine, who is portrayed as an aloof loner who avoids all emotional connections.”
The guy in the beginning in Angel. And
SPOILERS
later Cordelia
/SPOILERS
Daniel Hernandez de Dios, I think Angel has been out long enough that you’re safe to announce spoilers openly. 🙂
Cordelia is a solid example too!
Another good example of an Oracle is Lydia Martin from Teen Wolf (though I don’t really like the character). I haven’t watched Hemlock Grove yet. Should I? ^^
Markus Schoenlau, only if you like super weird Monsterhearts-esque suburban fantasy (something I adore!).
In Angel we have the weird/really funny option of Lorne, the aura and future reader demon who only can lecture you when you are singing
Miriam Black from Chuck Wendig’s novel series, though hers is rather specific variety of oracle…ness.
Ms. Vanessa Ives, Penny Dreadful
(It doesn’t hurt that Eva Green is amazing)
In particular I like her because she doesn’t just get shaken at the beginning of the episode to exposit plot. Which is shockingly rare for this type of character.
Sofie and her mother from Carnivale and Allison Dubois, from Medium (especially nice because she is the protagonist, rather than just a source of information for them)
I think that Delirium (from Sandman) covers a lot of this ground, actually!
Princess Hinoto from X/1999
