A character in a video game generally does nothing if there's no player to tell it what to do. The characters in StarCraft are the units by which the game is won. It's comparable to a pool cue, discus, pole for pole vaulting or a golf club. These things do nothing without a player, but they are things you use to win the game, just like video game characters like StarCraft units.
You're comparing the video game character to the athlete which I think is wrong.
