Richard Alpert: Richard Alpert is the Island's ageless-counsel to Jacob, acting as a sort of Panchen-Lama for the others in choosing their leader. He initially arrived on the Island as a slave via the Black Rock. From there he made a deal with Jacob to help protect the island from the Man in Black, in exchange for immortality. Richard provided sound advice to Island leaders for generations, and his calm approach often contrasted him with such characters as Charles Widmore, and Ben. For a a very brief period of time Locke had been elected by Richard as leader of the Island, and it would have been interesting to see him work with a more kind-hearted and introspective personality. Unfortunately Locke had to leave the Island to bring back the survivors who left and died. Gregory Peck was an actor who not only closely resembled Alpert, but also had a similar way about him, the kind of person you turn to in a time of need, a solid voice of reason.
