For the record, I support this being in the lore forum. There’s no “character” forum, it’s discussion will likely involve story anyway, and if it was in General it would just end up on page 4 lost between threads complaining about add on bans.
Okay not knocking your choices, just genuinely curious: Brithael? Why? When it comes to characterization, are you also including his post-arr content? I have only done his arr line, but in that he hardly stands out as having much more characterization than the merchant he’s kinda fueding with. Definitely way less to him than any of your other ARR picks. IMO, at least.
(Nothing against the BSM quests of course.)
Honestly, though I was afraid to click it at the time(tho not *nearly* as afraid as Godbert’s options later), Hamon looked damn good in those outfits he was modeling in LLD. Like, good for him, you know? I actually bought his “now I’m gonna go be a ladies man” line a bit after seeing him in those outfits. Amazing what getting rid of that horrible hat of his accomplished.
My top 10:
G’raha
Alisaie
Feo Ul
Urianger
Ardbert
Thancred
Vrtra
Hythlodaeus
Hien
Moenbryda
Honorable mentions: Baderon, Giott, the Fortemps family, Lyna, Jullus, and Nidhana.
And also Livingway. Every other line from her sends me.
I genuinely like a great deal of the cast, though, so it’s hard to pick favorites.
