Whos your favorite character from a Fantasy Series of books i.e. Dragon Lance, Forgotten Realms

[WatermelonBonkers]

My favorite character was FIZBAN or Tasslehoff Burrfoot

 

[Atlantean]

yeah tasslehoff burrfoot was cool, and raistlin (not sure if that is the right spelling) was pretty cool too

 

[XMan]

Fizban popped up in the "Death Gate" series, as well.

 

[Atlantean]

oh yeah!! I forgot about fizban

 

[Praetor]

Haplo. Or maybe Haplo's dog Dog.

 

[Praetor]

Since y'all know about the crazy wizard, what was the deal with him? I've only seen him in the "Death Gate Cycle," and in there, he was painted as a crazy old man who had witnessed the end (sundering) of the world.

Is that premise/past history continued or explored in their other books?

Speaking of which, what other series did he pop into? Was it the DragonLance or one of their other books?

 

[convex]

raistlin or elminster...hell, drizzt too

 

[1967mustangman]

I think my favorite would have to be Corwin from Zelazny's Amber series.

 

[Javelin]

Quite a few actually... Drizzt from Forgotten Realms, Eddings has a ton of cool characters, and everyone from George Martin's 'A Song of Ice and Fire' is great.

 

[XMan]

i Eddings has a ton of cool characters

Huh? There are only like 3 of them, for Pete's sake.

I believe Fizban was actually the God of Good's (if i remember correctly the name is Paladine) human form.

Anyone remember Huma??? He was cool too. Hell I loved all the Dragon Lance characters!!

 

[Narse]

I always did like Haplo, I need to read the Death Gate Cycle agian, Been like 4 years

 

[djheater]

hrrrmmm...
How about Jerry Cornelius from his own books The Final Program, A Cure for Cancer, The English Assassin, The Condition of Muzak especially when he pops up in the Eternal Champion series as a companion to Elric.....

 

[shenea]

Gandalf. Definitely Gandalf!

Shenea

 

[skylark]

I think I read almost every dragonlance book there was hehe..

my favourites:

The legend of Huma
Tanis: the shadow years
The series with Raistlin, Caramon, Crysania
The series with Palin and his brothers

and this one, which I bet most of you have never read:

The Knights of the Black Rose
This book reveals Takhisis's own knights, the anti-paladins to the Knights of The Rose, in Solamnia.

Oooooooh! Good choice.

How about Belgarath?

 

[hammer01]

I liked Random from the Amber series and Benedict. Oberon was cool as well, Corwin was just a bit too stuffy for my tastes, but he made a good hero. I also enjoyed Drizzt as well.

 

[Emos]

I haven't read that much fantasy but Drizzt Do'Urden has been may favorite so far.

Gandolf from LOTR
Mat from Wheel of Time
Elminster from Forgotten Realms
