What character from a novel would you most want to play?

[demiurge1138]

I'd play Elminster.. or maybe Drizzt, because I hate to lose.

Well, if you hate to lose, you could always go the true path...
Nylarthotep! The Crawling Chaos never loses. Well, he did once. But it was still a moral victory!

Demiurge out.

I've had the good fortune to play a few on stage and Dracula was one of the highlights. I've always wanted to play Sherlock Holmes but I think I may be too heavy to ever get the chance to play that cocaine fiend!.

Hmmm...

Perhaps with the proper regimen, I could...

Nope. The heart could never take it.

I know, Drizzt Do'urden, but just look at the picture.

Otherwise, Aragorn or Eddard Stark (GRR Martin). Furthermore, Thom Merillin or Gaul (both R Jordan).

I Dunno, there are a lot of interesting characters.

Joscelin from the Kushiel's Legacy series or Lucivar from the Black Jewels Trilogy

I agree on Morrolan e'Drien. Alot of history and backstory there never touched. Especially that time out East.

Read Brust's latest, Paths of the Dead? Sheds some light on Morrolan's early history and what he was doing out East...

And if Lord of Castle Black (coming in August; the 2nd part of Viscount of Adrilanka, where Paths of the Dead is part one and Sethra Lavode is part three) doesn't reveal quite a bit more, it's poorly named.

Alfred from the Death Gate Cycle
Binabik from Memory, Sorrow and Thorn
Verminaard from DL (iconic butt-kicking cleric to me)

 

[Breakdaddy]

Jarlaxle! He looks cool bald, has lots of cool magic stuff, and is the anti-hero's hero (he also leads a really badass mercenary band)!

Well...

I'd like to be a few people, depending on my mood.

The Dark Messiah, from Robert Weinberg's Masquerade of the Red Death Trilogy.

Rand Al'Thor - There just times when the thought of being Lews Therin Telemon, The Dragon Reborn, sounds cool.
