While every character contributes and is cool in their own way, it's gotta be...

Belkar, baby!

Vaarsuvius.

I'm still waiting for a Paladin I like more than him, sooner or later one will come along.

...Oh who am I kidding, I like them all. I can label which one like the most most because it constantly changes with each strip. But if there has to be one character, then it's probably :haley:.

:belkar: :thog: :roy: in that order. Although, I have to admit, I like them all.

Funny Factor: Elan, then Thog, then V, then Belkar.
Character-Building Factor: Miko, then Haley.
Awesomeness Factor: (as in WOAH! awesome! kinda stuff that blows you away) V, then Durkon, then Miko, then Belkar.

OVERALL ORDER OF FAVORITES

1. Elan (for comedic purposes and just because he's totally cool)
2. Vaarsuvius (just because he/she is awesome)
3. Belkar (for awesomely disturbing stuff and stuff)
4. Thog (for incredible hysterical laughter)
5. Miko (for drama, character-building, etc. etc.)

Belkar all the way! With maybe Elan as a close second. I dislike V, Hinjo, and Roy simply for being mean to Belkar.

Oxymoron
2007-03-18, 02:56 PM
Roy is my favorite hero character. I always had respect for leadership and intelligence. My favorite villain is Redcloak, for all the same reasons as me liking Roy.

Galathir
2007-03-18, 03:06 PM
:vaarsuvius:

I vote for V!

For my second favorite, it would be a tie between Elan and Roy.

Shojo then :nale: and :roy:.

Poor Shojo, he was the only chaotic good character that wasnt a fool and he had to get killed. Damn you Miko!

2007-03-18, 03:25 PM
Good guys:
:durkon: Durkon, :belkar: Belkar, and :vaarsuvius: Vaarsuvius
Bad guys:
:redcloak: Redcloak, :thog: Thog!

In that order

Are you implying Haley's a fool? I mean she's proven to be quite smart, and it's more than clear she's as far from lawful as can be (i refer especially scenes like this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0008.html) and this (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0029.html) one)

Oh she is smart but she is still a fool or, at least was, as she say herself in that scene:

http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0382.html

Now she is probably better but yeah, I would say she was a fool before. And about the only other chaotic good character, well, I hope I dont have to explain why I think he is a fool...

Hey, go :vaarsuvius: !!

How can you not like a verbose elven wizard with a sense of humour and a very inventive mind?

I like the leader of the barbarian guild, gortok , i can recall his line " tiny man is inavding gortak's personal space!"

Of the OotS: Durkon. He is a dwarf and by default that makes me like him, but in terms of story I really can't say anything negative about him. Kind, compassionate, and with that lovable xenophobic dwarven nature.

Of the enemies, probably Thog. Yes, I know that he probably even gets overused these days, but God help me he is the only character that makes me chuckle every single time with every single line he utters. Redcloak is a second and I have a feeling he will be a major character later on, perhaps even more so then Xykon.

Random important characters: Hinjo. I would say Shojo too, but unfortunately he is no longer alive. Still, a legacy in the form of Hinjo still lives. I read a few posts that say that he is not really a true paladin due to being selfish/mean to Roy and co from time to time, but to me he is a true definition of paladin. Sure, he can act like a "Human" from time to time, but that is because he was born that way. The reason I stopped playing a paladin myself in D&D was because my DM is a bastard who hates paladins the moment that they have any other thoughts that make them even remotely likable and not bots with a stick up their arse.A natural leader with a fantastic charisma, who if he is not offed soon enough will become a great force behind Azure City.

Character I dislike: I pretty much like every character in the comic, because they are just that, likable. Miko however would be the one I would vote for being disliked if I had any to choose from. Just never cared much for her or the way how she played of that robot like stereotype.

Darkxarth
2007-03-19, 09:26 AM
:nale: is by far my favorite character out of the bunch.
:roy: brings up second.
:elan: is a close third.

But I haven't really found a character in this comic that I don't like. Yes, I even like Miko.

V was always my favourite because I used to play wizards in D&D. And now he totally owns the siege :smallsmile:
Also i like Roy because he is a responsible leader.
And then there is Haley because she is the only girl in the Order.

I laugh on Thog and Belkar, but i find Elan and Miko annoying.
Durkon is not as funny as earlier, sadly he didn't have too much outstanding performance since the fight with the druid.

I view Xykon and Redcloak as villains who must die (eventually), so i don't build up likes, even if they do have fun moments, i view them as expendable foes.

Nale is annoying (not funny, and silly) even as a foe.

#1 Vaarsavius :vaarsuvius:
#2 Durkon :durkon:
#3 Haley :haley:

Why? Vaarsavius is spellcaster, cool. Durkon is calm dwarf (very uncommon...) ja Haley.... Hmm... She is rogue... Do you need more? :)

Edit; And of course Redcloak! :redcloak: That goblin priest is just so cool and like his comments.. :smallbiggrin:

Vaarsuvius :vaarsuvius: really just can kick ass and has a humor that might not be burst out laughing funny, but in your brain it's hysterical.
If you know what I mean.

No. I didn't expect you to.

Of course, all of the characters are really great. I just love to hate Miko. She's well developed and everything, it's just her character that I just don't like.

Of course, I love MitD too. He's awesome.

2007-03-19, 04:20 PM
Hmmm, I'd have to say:

1st - :redcloak:Red Cloak, just cause he's awesome.
2nd - :vaarsuvius:V, cause wizards rock!

Easily and without question... though one other character in my opinion rivals him in terms of sheer... well... character (that'd be Miko) Redcloak is just so much more likeable to me. I have high hopes for him.

I like Redcloak too, and my reason is that he dedicated the firing of the catapults to his mom(very cute).

I could imagine Redcloak having a flashback to when he was little and his mom was teaching him how to seige a castle... after all RC did say he had been dreaming of attacking Azure City for two thirds of his life...

Flashback begins right after the hobgoblin in panel six of #422 asks "Orders, Supreme Leader?"

RC's mom - Remember son, if you're going to seige a castle be sure to fire Titatnium elemantals at the castle instead of Earth elementals, they're just a strong as Earth elementals but they are 40% lighter, which means they will fly further.

RC - Ok mommy, I'll remember that.

cutback to right before he says "This one's before you, Mom."

I think that would have been epic, but then again it is my idea...

I gotta give my vote for Lien. She may be a secondary character, but she's so cute I cant help but wanna root for her. ^.^

I also give props to Redcloak, Roy, and the Shadowdancer.

Not stupid at all; so many characters, sometimes it's hard to keep track of and remember all of them.

Lien is here (http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0414.html), although I'm not certain if it's her first appearance; just where I happened to remember seeing her.
