Too bad for her that she naturally possesses the potential to become the one of the most powerful [[ActionGirl Pandoras]] on the planet, and her JerkAss father constantly pressured her into becoming the "world's savior" more for to boost his own political career than to actually, well, save the world.

** Of course, whether he actually is applicable for a reluctant warrior or not is debatable, given the fact that it was heavily implied, if not outright stated, during MetalGearSolid that he seemed to actually enjoy all the killing and war, such as Psycho Mantis referring to Snake as being "the same as the boss. No, [Snake's] even worse than the boss, and that compared to [Snake], [Mantis] was a saint in comparison.", Meryl mentioning that Snake enjoys war, enjoys all the killing, and does not want it to go away, and Liquid Snake pretty much telling him to his face that Snake enjoys all the killing, which is why he still blindly follows his superiors orders despite his being betrayed. The fact that Meryl, one of his own allies, refers to him by such a description at the very least implies that the villains weren't toying with him.
