Yup. What it says on the tin. Can be from any fandom, like books, movies and tv shows . . . and they can be your all-time faves or the ones you really dig at the moment.


1) The Doctor (Doctor Who)
2) Spike (BTVS . . . duh)
3) Severus Snape (Harry Potter)
4) Harry Dresden (Dresden Files)
5) Captain Picard (Star Trek:The Next Generation)



Those are my faves of the moment. Though the top two stay pretty constant. . .

2. Giles

It's impossible to pick only five (I am a very character-focussed viewer/reader), so I will list five for each medium:

Live Action TV:

Willow
Wesley
Omar (The Wire)
Luke (Gilmore Girls)
Frank Pembletone (Homicide Life on the Street)

Anime

Mireille (Noir)
Grimmer (Monster)
Reki (Haibane Renmei)
Nodame (Nodame Cantabile)
Aaeru (Simoun)

Books

Well, now it gets really impossible, so I will just five characters that I love without thinking too much on all those that I might ignore:

Miles Vorkosigan (Bujold's Vorkosigan series)
Jack Shaftoe (Neal Stephenson's Baroque Cycle)
Jane Eyre (shockingly enough, she is a character from Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre)
Ben Hanscom (Stephen King's It)
Samuel Vimes (Terry Pratchett's Discworld series)
