Supernatural ● We are the good guys [Humor] made by ♥TheMica993♥
Aaron Bass *Adam Rose
Aaron is one of the characters that we wish would be in more than just one episode. If you think about superheroes, his power would be “Summon the Golem!” Aaron started as a normal college student, mostly having fun and not studying that much, but later he needed to embrace his heritage and use the golem for good to keep it from being snatched to do bad. Aaron needed to take responcibility for the situation and he did. That is one badassery move right there.
“Aaron: I’m sorry. I thought we had a thing back at the quad. You know, a little eye magic? A moment? I saw you here and I figured I’d wait until you were done with your meeting and then we might…” – 8.13 Everybody Hates Hitler
Known status: Alive and kicking
Seen: 8.13 Everybody Hates Hitler
Adam Milligan *Jake Abel
This is also a character that divides the fandom a lot. For me, he is the half brother of the Winchesters and thus he is family but he didn’t know his brothers nor father that well. For him, his mother was all he had and he wanted her back. Angels promised to give her back to him and to Adam, angels were the good guys. He didn’t know better. He might have felt like a jerk to work against them. I saw a glimpse of the real Adam when he learned the truth and when Sam and Dean came to save him. It was only for a moment but he did choose his brothers. Too bad that neither the audience nor his brothers got to know him well. He did the right thing in the end.
“Adam: No, John Winchester was some guy who took me to a baseball game once a year. I don’t have a dad. So we may be blood, but we are not family. My mom is my family. And if I do my job, I get to see her again. So no offense, but she’s the one I give a rat’s ass about, not you.” – 5.18 Point of No Return
Known status: Deceased or by miracle alive and kicking
Seen: 4.19 Jump the Shark, 5.18 Point of No Return and 5.22 Swan Song (as Michael’s vessel)
Kevin Tran *Osric Chau
When you are being pulled into the Supernatural world, you usually get screwed. In the end Kevin did too. He was the prophet of the lord plus he survived with his mother against demons, Crowley and Leviathans. He even outsmarted Crowley and the demons more than once. Also, he took his body to extremes while trying to help the Winchesters. Maybe even over the limits.
“I always trust you. And I always end up screwed.” – 9.09 Holy Terror
Known status: Deceased
Seen: 7.21 Reading Is Fundamental, 7.22 There Will Be Blood, 7.23 Survival of the Fittest, 8.01 We Need to Talk About Kevin, 8.02 What’s Up, Tiger Mommy?, 8.07 A Little Slice of Kevin, 8.10 Torn and Frayed, 8.14 Trial and Error, 8.19 Taxi Driver, 8.21 The Great Escapist, 8.23 Sacrifice, 9.02 Devil May Care, 9.06 Heaven Can’t Wait, 9.09 Holy Terror, 9.14 Captives and 11.21 All in the Family
Rufus Turner *Steven Williams
You could call him the “Jack Dalton” kind of friend to Bobby – always getting him into trouble. Rufus seem to have infinite knowledge of all kinds of things, especially information that hunters need. But make no mistake, he was a great and strong hunter. The way he died did not do his character justice. He was also there whenever Bobby needed his help, even in his time of dying. He helped him to pass the test that was needed to get back to his boys.
“Folks like us… there ain’t no happy ending… I’m what you’ve got to look forward to if you survive. But you won’t.” – 3.15 Time Is on My Side
Known status: Deceased
Seen: 3.15 Time Is on My Side, 5.02 Good God, Y’All, 6.04 Weekend at Bobby’s, 6.16 …And Then There Were None, 7.10 Death’s Door and 11.16 Safe House
Ash *Chad Lindberg
I think he called himself Dr. Badass on the show and he truly was that. His computer skills were phenomenal and he was of course there for the boys, on earth and in Heaven. Even in Heaven he gave the Winchesters a helping hand with Pamela. You could say he was relaxed and cool. It is a shame that he burned with the tavern when it burned down.
“Well, hell then. Guess I need my pants.” – 2.05 Simon Said
Known status: Deceased
Seen: 2.02 Everybody Loves a Clown, 2.05 Simon Said, 2.10 Hunted, 2.21 All Hell Breaks Loose: Part One and 5.16 Dark Side of the Moon
Honorable mention:
Jacob Styne *Jeff Branson
It is a shame we had him only in one episode. From the Stynes, he seemed the most formidable adversary to the Winchesters. The actor also played a large part in making him memorable. Jacob was intimidating and powerful in the short scenes in which we saw him. I think they did burn his body so he is dead but you’ll never know with the Stynes. Maybe we will get this one back.
“Well, there’s coincidence, and then there’s just providence. See, “The Book of the Damned,” it wants to be found. It wants to come home. Let me guess. You want to use it to get that gift off your arm, don’t you? Power is wasted on the weak. Now the book….can remove that Mark. But you mess around with that, you’re gonna do far more harm than good.” – 10.18 Book of the Damned
Known status: Deceased
Seen: 10.18 Book of the Damned
Sully *Nate Torrence
We have had all kinds of badasses on this list – hunters, soldiers, computer geniouses, geniouses, dangerous monsters and much more. So how about we also get one that is kind and peaceful and protects children at all costs, even by offering his life so that they could be spared. Maybe a good way to end this list is with his kindness and with beings that sparkle like unicorns or are beautiful like mermaids or play cool air guitar players or are just an ordinary person. Beings that are there when their families are not or when their parents are not available. Their goodness is their strength and they don’t have any ill intent in their bones. Hopefully we will see Sully again.
“Sometimes they’re scared, but that just means the thing they’re facing, it’s super important, and nobody else is gonna go for it because nobody else has got the balls.” – 11.08 Just My Imagination
