Favorite Fantasy Character


Oddy

Recommended Posts

We all know we love ASOIAF characters, so let's try not to mention our lovefest for Jaime. :grouphug:

For me, I'm only 100 or so pages into The Blade Itself, but if Abercrombie doesn't get worse, than Glotka will become one of my favorites.

I have many Favorites.

Glokta (First Law)
The Bloody Nine (First Law)
The Limper (Black Company)
Raif Severence (Sword of Shadows)
Vaylo Bludd (Sword of Shadows)
Cnauir (The Prince of Nothing)
Roland (The Dark Tower)
Gandalf(The Lord of the Rings)
Rand Al Thor(Wheel of Time)
Fiddler(Malazan Book of the Fallen)
Trull (Malazan Book of the Fallen)
Kalam(Malazan Book of the Fallen)
Kallor(Malazan Book of the Fallen)
Karsa (Malazan Book of the Fallen)
Anomander Rake(Malazan Book of the Fallen)


And yes Glokta gets even more interesting. Him and the Bloody Nine get much better after book one. Glokta maybe the best character invented ever.)

Having just finished The First Law, Book 2, it's hard to not like Logan or Dogman or Glotka.

I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Jaxom and Ruth (obviously) among others from that series, as well as Tanis and Raistlin, Locke and Jean.

Turin from the Silmarillion
Akka from PoN
Yagharek from Perdido Street Station
Jonathan Strange and Lord Byron from Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell
Corwin from the Amber books
Jack Flash and Seamus from Vellum
and pretty much the whole cast from Graham Joyce's Facts of Life. Joyce paints such a wonderful family portrait that it's hard to leave any of them out. If I had to pick, I think the mother and the mortician would be my favorites.
