Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

I don't know if anyone else mentioned this, but I rather liked the crew from Farscape.

(Damn, I loved that show. They did so much on such a limited budget. Pure awesomeness.)

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

How about an honorable mention for Ricardo Montalban playing 'Kahn' in Star Trek II?

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

yeah, Kahn was pretty good. And the blue plantlady.

Not as good as Miles though--Miles is so damn likeable.

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

Anasurimbor Kellhus of the Prince of Nothing series is probably the most interesting and engaging character ever written.

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

Captain Jean-Luc Picard or Data and/or Lore and/or B4 as they are marvelous creations of sci-fi ever, yep better than Kirk and his pet, Spock. lol.

one thing can people stop saying the doctor, he seems to be the easy way out for bored people, if you do mention him at least say which of the 10 do you like the most, its getting annoying

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

Yeah, i think it was Luceno who was told to kill him off. He got death threats after that.

We love Boba Fett!

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

Heroine:
Mara - Lady of the Acoma
from Raymond E Fiest and Janny Wurts "Daughter of the Empire" series.
Family killed, left almost powerless has to marry worst enemy on the way back to the very top by the end of the trilogy. Quite a resume!

Villain:
The emperor Palpatine / Darth Sideous

Hero:
Darth Vader / Anakin Skywalker - he took his time getting there, but hero in the end

I think Kellhus is just a little to powerful (but then again, I haven't even finished The Warrior Prophet...). I'd say Drusas Achamian. That's a great character. Almost like a serious Rincewind.

Oh yeah, forgot that. Pilot is great!

Re: The Best Science Fiction Character of ALL TIME

I actually happen to hate Kellhus as a person the books and love Achamian but Kellhus definitely has more depth.
