Re: Who are your favourite characters?

Talon of the Silver Hawk is definately my first love because he was the character I started out with[i didnt read in order] and he got all the girls. Then Id have to say as soon as I hit the Rift War it would have to be hands down Duke James and Prince Arutha, they were unmatched in being fun to read yet unatural in there ability to rule and know what to do next. Throw Erik vonDarkmoor in there as a Feist great for good measure because he was so fun to read because he was so human and normal yet he was great at the same time. I think the fact that he never knew he was great is was sold me.

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

I read through this thread and I think (as odd as it sounds) that everyone is right. My favorite Character changes depending on what book I'm reading. Obviously I like Nakor, but I think it's the fact that not much is ever really revealed about him. And he always seems to know what to do or bits of information he shouldn't really know.
For Example, yesterday I finished reading The Kings Buccaneer so I really like Prince Nicolas as a character.

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

Pug, Tomas, Arutha, Amos, Martin, Calis, Erik, Roo, Miranda, Jimmy the hand and I could continue

The best, my absolute favourite is Nakor especially in parts of the Serpent war saga. (got some funny looks reading them on the train because I was laughing so much oops!)

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

So far my fav are the young Pug and Arutha in Magician.

Pug i found boring when he grew up to become the clichèd magician master, the great one.....

Cool Re: Who are your favourite characters?

Hello - people - new on this site - didnt know there were so many of us out there. Macros has to be the greatest character - Ultimate Power - the scene where he dives through the rift to battle the demon king, and the god of magic (cant remember his name) lends him his power once more - awesome. And I have a soft spot for Mara - the way her character evolves from the noblewoman protecting her house at all costs to a genuine concern and her search for Kevins greater good - Feist is brilliant

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

Nakor. Gotta be Nakor. None of the other characters have made my actually laugh out loud from their antics. Nothing beats blowing pepper into Lady Clovis's nose to interfere with her spell. xD

Second would have to be Jimmy the hand, he was the rougish rough-and-tumble hero of the early books. Third is Leso Varen, he has a very colorful personality for a villan from what little plotline involves his actual thoughts. Finally would have to be Arch-Indur, her sneaky and affable manner is adorable for one of the most powerful gods in the multiverse.

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

So many to choose from... so i'll pick three!

1. Nakor just for the idea of his magic bag. So cool
2. Robert de Loungville
3. Erik because he seems so normal compared to everyone else. I still think he could beat Talwin in a sword fight.

In fact, i like them all

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

Nakor brings real humour that so many fantasy pieces don't have and hes contrary-always interesting.
No real favourite character, Sho Pi, Tathar, Dolgan, Rhuargh, Kaspar, Dashel jameson are all liked but most Feist Charwachters are enoyable,
on the other hand i do Hate Miranda with a vengeance: stupid, moaning, self-important grrrr

I share that experience!
Amos Trask, Jimmy/James, Nakor, Laurie. All the loveable, humurous ones.
Although Hartraft and Asayaga are inspirational as well.

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

I really like Martin's stance and personality to hide his own knowledge about his true identity and father.
I also like Nakor and Fantus

Re: Who are your favourite characters?

Welcome DeMon!
yeah have to agree, they'd had so much coverage and then, bam, they were gone. I think Feist just wanted a new canvas, otherwise with some capable people still around, the kingdom would have recovered too quickly. I guess long descriptions would have led to long passages and a longer book.
William though bings us to Fantus, probably one of the animals I like more in fantasy!
