Breakfast Topic: Your favorite Blizzard character

One of the brilliant things that sets Blizzard apart as a developer is their characters. Each hero or villain is a complicated tapestry of motivations, emotional trauma, and a certain Je-ne-sais-quoi I like to refer to as the "Kick Ass Quotient." If you were asked to pick your favorite character from any Blizzard game, which would you choose? I know I have a hard time with this one myself, so I will recuse myself on account of my inability to choose.Filed under: Blizzard, Breakfast Topics

Wow?! How do you pick I mean so many to choose from and they all have great lore background (which is really what makes a characture come alive) If I had, like absolutely HAD to choose just one, I would have to say Naxxramas He is just so Ugly and mean! LOL

I think they mean character like Arthas or Jaina.
It's a difficult choice but I'd have to choose Thrall or Kael'thas.
Thrall for his ability to overcome adversity and lead his people (among others) to saftey where someone like Arthas who had everything crumbled and almost lead his people to ruin.
Kael'thas for the tragedy of it all. He's just trying to do his best to protect his people. Too bad revenge drove him mad as he allied with Illidan after the Blood Elves betrayal by the humans; which is another reason alliance just suck.

Jim Raynor from StarCraft.
Guy wasn't a hero because of special abilities, guy was a hero for his actions.
Tassadar a close second.

Sylvanas, Queen of the Forsaken and former High elf General of Silvermoon.
I'm just fascinated by her horrifying life, and she's also one of the most powerful female in WoW (which is kind of rare, even if there is fortunately no difference between male and female characteristics).

Going to have to go with Thrall followed by Grom Hellscream.

Thrall, just for being awesome.
He is clearly the best racial leader, and good guy despite what the Horde were.
Vandell Jul 28th 2007 10:45AM
Teron Gorefiend, first of the Deathknights.
