    Someone metioned Pug, I thought he was cool, but I only read the Serpent War series from Fiest, but Calis and Erik von Darkmoor are my favorites from that series.

    I like Lan Mandragoran from the Wheel of Time series, he is just kick ass as a fighter.

    My favorite would have to be Rhaphsody from Elizabeth Haydon's trilogy. She is hot, literally. She is strong in flame lore and carries an elemental fire sword that kicks major butt as well. A great trilogy.

    christopher_c_pitzer, if you have only read the Serpent War series by Feist, I would highly recommend reading the Magician. Personally I thought the Serpent Wars were his worst books... maybe after Silverthorn... I didn't really like that one. But Darkness at Sethanon is good. I just found the Serpent Wars almost too repeatitive for me.

    @Prophete D'Acier: Lor Soth was the Death Knight right? It's been a couple of years since I read it.

    That's a very tough question. I like the delicate moves and marksmanship of elves(eg Legolas, Drizzt etc) and the rough ways and the toughness of dwarves(eg Bruenor) both, so I dont have any particularly favorite character. If I come up with any ideas: I'LL BE BACK :cool:

    What was I on when I made that post? Correction:

    -A. Entreri
    -Bruenor
    -Raistlin
    -Fizban
    -Cosmo

    Most interesting would have to be Raistlin. Especially after I learned to hate that bastard.
