The Sorrow

Glimpsed sporadically throughout Metal Gear Solid 3, The Sorrow is by far the most mysterious member of the Cobra Unit. He's also the most dead. You'd think a spirit medium would be happy to meet up with all his ethereal pals on the other side, but The Sorrow still lingers in the world of the living, and in the presence of his soulmate, The Boss. Though he aids Snake several times during Operation: Snake Eater, he also teaches the hero something about the value of human life. The encounter with The Sorrow isn't a fight so much as it is a challenge to dodge all the hapless guards you murdered.

Special abilities: Talking to ghosts and being a ghost.

Weaknesses: Revival pills.

Trivia: The Sorrow's murderer was none other than his lover, The Boss.
