Haplo's dog.

If you know what I mean, then you know. Otherwise, don't ask.

I quite liked Haplo himself, actually. (despite being named "Haplo". It might have helped that I read it in hebrew where short Ha sounds at the beginnings of words stand out less.) No thoughts about the dog.

Has to be Logen Ninefingers. I see so many shades of myself in him, not least his predilection for flying into a murderous rage at the drop of a hat.

Also, Iskaral Pust from Malazan. I quite like one-note characters, so long as that one note amuses me.
