| Re: Favourite fictional character Cyrano De bergerac- he was completely Larger than life, but also flawed.anyone can relate with him, yet he can fight 30 warriors alone. even in the end he fought on with sword and razor sharp wit. |

| Re: Favourite fictional character Marvin the Martian - from the old Warner Bros Cartoons, nuff said Belgarath the Sorceror - from The Belgariad (and others) proof that a truly great heroic character does not have to be the sharpest knife in the drawer Gray Mouser - Fritz Lieber's immortal rogue/wizard Mrs. Weasley - Ron Weasley's mother in the Harry Potter series, screw June Cleaver and Mrs. Brady. I want her for a mother. Sherlock Holmes Cara - Mord Sith bodyguard to Lord Rahl in the Sword of Truth series The Fool / Lord Golden - possibly the single most interesting character, so many unanswered questions and multiple personalities Seregil - from Lynn Flewelling's Nightrunner series, another classsy rogue |

| Re: Favourite fictional character crookedmouth - if you haven't yet, catch the French film entitled Cyrano De Bergerac (10-20ish years old now?). I caught the English subtitled version (for extra credit in a second semester French class back in the day) and it was sheer poetry through the whole movie. I've never seen a movie to match it (poetry-wise). Beautifully done. |

| Re: Favourite fictional character John Yossarian. One of the funniest books I've ever read and oh so much truth to it. Oops, looks like he's been brought up already, Charlie Gordon from Flowers for Algernon is a great character as well. |

| Mine must be Gandalf for an over all character, though I adhore Aragorn. Gandalf has the wisdom of the ages and the skill to fight his way out of almost everything. The perfect candidate, don't you think.... |

| Re: Favourite fictional character I can't believe I missed this thread...But I've spent a good 20 minutes laughing at some of the posts... ![]() My favouites are Vimes and Vetinari...they share a special place in my heart, I can never decide whom I like more... Tyrion Lannister is a close second. |

| Re: Favourite fictional character Oh where does one start? Drizzt Do'Urden of course. Nuff said. However, I could list loads. Druss the Legend, oh yeah baby. Londo Molari, tragic comedy genius. Belgarath, Gandalf only harder and funnier. Darth Maul, that lightsaber rocked. It still worked after Obi Wan broke it. Pikel Bouldershoulder, Oo-oi. Phaerun Mizzrym, gotta love the drow. James T Kirk, ultimate ladies man. ![]() |
