Chrono she/her Posted February 15, 2014 Report Share Posted February 15, 2014 Kaladin and Syl both tie for first place. Rock and Shallan for second. Dalinar and Hoid for third. Lift isn't even on this list because she's too awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elbereth she/her Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 1: Kaladin and Hoid 2: Rock and Dalinar 3. Axies the collector and szeth Off topic but does anybody know which characters will get their own book? Szeth, Kal, Shallan... That's all I know please help I'm dying to know!? Dalinar and Eshonai each will get one in the first arc. The second is more tentative, but possibilities include Talenel, another herald, Jasnah, someone we haven't met yet, Taravangian... It's still uncertain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ccstat he/him Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 So far Syl is my favorite cosmere character (not just SA). I hope she stays as intriguing through the rest of her appearances. Taravangian is second best in WoK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmingly he/him Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Honestly, I love all the snarky character's dialogue. Hoid in all his incarnations, Shallan, Lightsong, Breeze, Wayne. Syl's innocence is hilarious as well. I can't read the "I know what sarcasm is" line without laughing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsquared84 he/him Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 Kaladin is my favorite, but Szeth is a very interesting character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodfalcon he/him Posted February 17, 2014 Report Share Posted February 17, 2014 who is 9 Darkness? I'm sorry, that is a Words of Radiance character. Forgot what forum I was in. Doesn't really spoil anything though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stormcursed Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 It's a tie for me between Szeth and Kaladin. The former's inner turmoil is so compelling to read and the mystery that surrounds his mission and past makes his POV endlessly rereadable. As for Kaladin; though he maybe a bit whiny at times the gradual progression of how he turned the bridge runners into a band of brothers was one of the most satisfying aspects of WoK.

Neru he/him Posted February 18, 2014 Report Share Posted February 18, 2014 It's amazing how my favorite characters changed between my first and second reads of WoK (I'm not really a re-reader, not even with Harry Potter books and they are one-day reads) The first time I read WoK really fast and with a lot of skimming. That time I hated Dalinar, and Adolin and some of Kaladin. But loved Shallan and Jasnah. It was a huge disapointment to me the first time I read and saw that Shallans POV is not on all parts of the book. But the second time I read it was waaaay deeply into the book and characters. Then I loved everyone!! Now my favorites are Kaladin, Jasnah and Shallan, then Adolin. I've come to like Adolin a lot, after seeing how he really looks like Dalinar and the way they interact. After reading Adolin's excerpt I like him even more, and I'm looking forward to see more of him (I expect/hope him to be a KR and from a really cool order)! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomR Posted February 19, 2014 Report Share Posted February 19, 2014 My favorite's Dalinar. I like all the contradictions between who he has been, who he wants to be, and who he currently is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IllNsickly he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Hoid Rock Teft Because all 3 are a huge unknown and all have solid parts to play in the story. Ive never been a big fan of the quarterback.. the other players and the work that they do has always been more interesting to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightwatcher he/him Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Lopen is the funniest, Szeth is the coolest/most interesting, but all in all, I'd have to say Kaladin. I'd say Hoid, but I think this thread should only include characters specific to Roshar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shash Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Honorable (lol) Mention: Kaladin. Top Ten: 10) Szeth. 9) Odium. 8) Honor. 7) Tanavargian. 6) Jasnah. 5) Rock. 4) Skar. 3) Adolin. 2) Syl. 1) Dalinar. I know what you're thinking, "Wait, what?! Kaladin didn't even make the top ten?" No, he did not. I am an ENORMOUS fan of character's with inner struggles who try to do the right thing. Hence Dalinar being my number one. But I have no patience for whiners. And, love him or hate him, Kaladin is a whiner. I know that he went through a lot of emotional trauma at a very young age and is still very young...so if he grows out of his current attitude then he'll boost up to number 2. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollie99 she/her Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 1) Dalinar 2) Kaladin 3) Shallan 4) Jasnah 5) Syl 6) Adolin 7) Szeth 8) Kalak After finishing WoK, I thought... aw crap, I hope Dalinar doesn't die in the next book. He is definitely my favorite character. He bears enormous burdens and responsibilities. And he does the right things, the hard things with honor. He is a great leader and father. I can't wait for more character development for everyone in the next books! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeatherWriter she/her Posted February 27, 2014 Report Share Posted February 27, 2014 Basically, everyone who didn't have Renarin on their list is wrong. RENARIN KHOLIN. *ascends in a cloud of smoke while whispering "Renarin" over and over again* 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
