Top 10 Favorite Characters

Sup,

Okay so this post is going to be sort of fun for me because I’m going to tell you all about my top ten favorite characters of all time. Yes they are listed from most favorite to least favorite. Now this is what I’m going to do… you’ll get the character’s name, the author, and a little bit of why I like them.

1) Drizzt Do’Urden – R.A. Salvatore – I love Drizzt because he’s such an interesting person. He acts upon his emotions and what he stands for. Plus he’s got wicked sword skills and he uses scimitars how awesome.

2) Kvothe – Patrick Rothfuss - Kvothe is just such a dynamic character that you can’t help but love him. Even after all the things he goes through he’s still him and he uses his resources and wit to get him through tight spots.

3) Nazgrim – Micah English – here’s a quick side note this is a series on elfwood and not a published book… as far as I know – Nazgrim is so awesome because he’s self-centered and full of himself yet he has no issue helping others and the power that he has just makes or an awesome character

4) Malus Darkblade – Dan Abnett & Mike Lee – now who doesn’t love a backstabbing demon possessed dark elf? I love reading these stories because they have some amazing gory scenes and sometimes I just want some hack and slash! Plus there’s a plot to the murder which makes it even better and fun to read

5) Lestat – Anne Rice – now Lestat is a REAL vampire, none of the bullshit sparkling in the sun. he kicks butt and isn’t afraid to do what he wants to do. Plus he’s a vampire and I’m a sucker for a well written vamp.

6) Achmed – Elizabeth Haydon – okay assassins are awesome nuff said. Haha okay so Achmed is nifty because he always keeps his cool and knows what to do at just the right time. Plus he’s smart and the weapons he make are awesome as sin!

7) Dustfinger – Cornelia Funke – Dustfinger is a fire eater and that’s just soooo cool. Plus his character is so lovable and even though he’s not a main character he does so much to further the whole plot and he plays the hero in so any situations that you can’t help but love him

8) Magpie WIndwitch – Laini Taylor – yes the only girl to make my top ten list… why? Because she is strong willed and way smart. Plus she has not only the inner strength to do what she needs but also the outer strength where it’s hard to outmatch her with her combo of traits

9) Sherlock Holmes – Arthur Conan Doyle – dective stories aren’t really my cup of tea but Sherlock is so brilliant how he just figures it all out with so little and deducts so much.

10) Darren Shan – Darren Shan – again another vampire who’s kinda cool and old school sort of. Plus Darren is a teenager and he kicks soo much butt in the series and the ending is way cool and Darren just rocks cause ya he’s a vamp

And there you have it! Ta da! So I’ll post tomorrow updating you all on my writing!

Laters,
T.V.
