+ShardlessVessel Posted September 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 1 hour ago, Not an Ookla said: Welcome to the Shard! Who's your least favorite character? That's a surprisingly difficult question to answer. There are characters I hate as people, but not as characters. Dilaf comes to mind: he's an infuriating, unreasonable zealot - and the fact that I can so genuinely hate him makes him a great character in my eyes. I hate him because he's a great character, not a bad one. I see Moash in your signature. I dislike him, but I don't despise him - I care little for what he's done, but he lost all my respect in RoW. Hypocritical coward. As a character? Brilliantly written. The other reason why it's so hard for me to answer this question is because I don't actually pick favorites. I just like a bunch of stuff, dislike a bunch of stuff and am neutral on a bunch of stuff. Very rarely does something stand out enough for me to qualify it as "best". But if I had to choose one, it's Kiin's autistic child from Elantris, whose name slips my mind. He's a bit of a caricature and he actually feels like a plot device. I don't dislike as person, but I feel he could have been much more polished. How's that for a long-winded answer to a simple question? Maybe I should start a career as a epic fantasy author. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
