	Hmm, hard question. Let's see.... In no particular order: Ender Wiggin Bean Eragon Elizabeth Bennet Ransom (from C.S Lewis' Space Trilogy) Prof. McGonagall John the Savage (from Aldous Huxley's Brave New World) Atticus Finch Scout Jonas (from The Giver) King Tirian (from The Last Battle, book seven of the Chronicles of Narnia) If I think of more later, I'll post them. -----signature----- Stealth and subtlety work well, but for making lasting impressions, a blaster does just fine. -Han Room full of gold and jewels, and Dr. Daniel Jackson finds the one book. -Cam Palso's #1 Fan JO: RS1, Admiral Fanfic link in bio (esp. 08 Diary Challenge)

	It's good to see my namesake and his fellow gunslingers on so many people's lists. My List (as of this very moment, but author resevers the right to change, add, or alter at any time): Batman Superman Wolverine aka: Logan Frank Castle the Punisher Captain Nemo The Vampire Lestat Roland Deschain of Gilead that was Jake Chambers of New York Tigger Jack Ryan James Bond King Arthur Lancelot Du Lake Robin Hood Aslan Zaphod Beeblebrox Aragorn son of Arathorn Jack Sawyer Father Callahan Odysseus Professor Van Helsing Anakin Solo Eddie Dean/Cuthbert Allgood Ichabod Crane Conan the Cimmerian Larry Underwood Stu Redman Huckleberry Finn Mercutio That's all I can think of for now... -----signature----- Satan's not in a guitar pick, he's inside all of us.

	Waru Hmmm, I am currently reading LotR and I enjoy Pippin quite a bit. Especially his interactions with Gandalf. But I also am very fond of Prince Charming from Slay and Rescue. I'm sure there are more. Non-scifi/fantasy . . .

	Ooh, this is hard! I'll leave out Star Wars characters, or the list would be very huge! Achmed, from Elizabeth Haydon's Symphony of Ages books absolutly beats out everyone else, because he's that great. Tayven Hirantel, from The Magravandain Chronicles, by Storm Constintine. Saetan, from The Black Jewel Trilogy, by Anne Bishop. Basically all the sarcastic characters from anything. Love the snark! -----signature----- http://z4.invisionfree.com/mindbreak/index.php?act=idx Kriff This! http://www.geocities.com/lusa_thul/breakfree.html Raynar Fansite http://www.geocities.com/lusa_thul/crystal.html R/L Fansite http://www.echuta.net/chrono XD Thrilled Master to Kotorchick

	Well, since my literary world has of late revolved around all things SW and HP...then I have to go with Ron Weasley and Severus Snape from HP. And from all things SW...I have to go with Qui-Gon Jinn( I am reading a lot of JA stuff) and Siri and Tahl. Also though in general...I love Armand from the Vampire Chronicles. Oh, and having recently discovered Mercedes Lackey, I would say that I am enamored with Vanyel from the Magic trilogy. Does anyone else find that in general they do not like the main character? Like I love Harry Potter, but I find his cast of supporting characters so much more interesting. Also goes for The Vampire Chronicles, though Lestat is a complex, interesting character, I like the rest of them as much or more. -----signature----- You can't quit until you try, You can't live until you die You can't learn to tell the truth until you lie...

	Hmmm... top favourite would probably be Croaker from The Black Company and the accompanying series by Glen Cook, followed closely by Ged from Ursula K. Le Guin's Earthsea saga. A few steps behind both of them would be the older Prince Caspian of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader by C.S. Lewis. -----signature----- A great man (whose name has rather humourously long since been forgotten) Once said that "Though the apple falls not far from the tree, the coconut will roll for many miles." ------ I dislike my username.

	Onrack, undead 300,000yrs in House of Chains, his skeletal body falling apart, raises his one sword arm left against three hostile Tiste Liosan wizards, holds his ground. They had previously offered him to be their servant, assent to be indicate with a waist bow, and quickly. The final Jaime scene in Storm of Swords 1 with prune-eating Bolton was intricately worded. The entire Memories of Ice is shocking quality. The blabbering Kruppe. The genial necromancer duo. Foot-stamping Lady Envy. The fear of Anomander Rake, and his soul sword. At some point in Shadows of Amn's expansion game, Sarevok snaps back at Imoen's taunting over his second death, saying she most likely keeps temples in business with the amount of money the PC player dumps to revive her so many times. Dunk of The Hedge Knight. Why am I wasting my time listing names? I can give dozens! -----signature----- The Brits gave the world Doctor Who We owe them
