This is the antithasis of the Characters you Hate thread!

Which fictional character(s) do you like, would like to be, can't get enough of?

I really admire the patrician of Ank Morpork Havelock Vetinari

QuoteLord Vetinari's genius political thinking and his running of the city can be summed up by his belief that what people wish for most is not good government, or even justice, but merely for things to stay the same; the Vetinari family motto is, after all, Si non confectus, non reficiat ("If it ain't broke, don't fix it.")



If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Remember, your inability to grasp science is not a valid argument against it.

Medusa

Sonja Blue, the vampire killer (and vamp) in the Nancy Collins collection of Sonja Blue. She's not some pretty and helplessly romantic vamp. She's one tough predator.
She has the blood of reptile....just underneath her skin...

I like the season 1 version of Gauis Baltar, I was always laughing even while saying, "Uh oh."
Also season 2 Gauis Baltar, when he found himself dragged into compelling dramatic situations; even though it was less funny, I still was invested in the character because he was so much fun earlier.  Season 3 Baltar was not the direction I hoped to see (mainly the second half of the season) and Season 4 Baltar was an infuriatingly bizarre shark jump.

Luna Lovegood, particularly in The Order of the Phoenix.

Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark.  That traumatized look on his face as he's getting off the plane after his kidnapping ordeal...that look of tormented heartbreak as he suits up in his perfected Iron Man suit for the first time...

I couldn't decide on a single BSG character. That is one of my favorite shows ever. James Callis guest starred on Eureka in one of the recent seasons. During one episode everyone was having hallucinations and someone asked Callis' character what he was seeing and he said "tall, leggy blond in a red dress" and then I cheered. Nerd out!
