When you vote on the poll, vote for who you know as a character, not who you believe is the most well in a worldwide sense.
In your response you can post who you think is the most well known worldwide, despite what you voted for your answers.
Conan the (Barbarian, Destroyer, Slayer, etc...) was created in the early 1930's by Robert E Howard, he has been across more media than the other 3 combined (as far as I know), ranging from magazines, comics, graphic novels, novels, movies, video games, MMOs, his own Pen & Paper game, cartoon, etc... He is a great warrior that uses every fiber of his being (strength, speed, toughness, wit, etc...) to overcome challenges, and he carries a BIG sword.
Drizzt was created in the late 1980's by R.A. Salvatore. He has been across several bits of media, books, comics, graphic novels, and video games. He is a dark-elf (Drow) that wields two swords, and has a panther companion.
Elric the White Wolf was created by Michael Moorcock in late 1970's. I don't know much about him, except that he's physically weak and his sword makes him strong. As far as the media he's been in, I am only aware of novels and comic books.
Geralt of Rivia (also the White Wolf) was created by Andrzej Sapkowski in the mid 1980's. He has gone through special Witcher training, he can makes potions, bombs, uses an iron blade, and a sliver blade, he also knows a variety of fighting styles. He has been in novels, graphic novels, video games, and a TV show.
If you don't know who one or more of these characters are, take a moment to Google them.
You can also tell me out of these 4, who are your favorites?
My favorites, in order:
P.S.
I put this topic in this section because some of these characters were either created because of a roleplaying game, or have transitioned into roleplaying games.
