Which RotE character is your favourite? (spoilers all RotE books)

[BuckBear]

First post.

The characters that most grab at me are Verity, Web and Fitz himself. The Fool will always have a special place in my heart.

Verity's devotion to his kingdom is so great. Then he takes time from that to spare for Fitz nad sacrifices everything for his loves: Fitz, Kettricken and the Six Duchies. His attitude towards Fitz at the end of Assassin's Quest make me melt inside.

Web is just one hell of a role model. He's everything you want in a role model - well humoured, very well spoken, modest, willing to teach, wise and both gentle and strong at the same time. I have trouble seeing flaws in Web.

Fitz isn't a role model. Sometimes it seems that every time Fitz has to make a decision he chooses the wrong one, for all the right reasons. That's why he's so identifiable. I identify with his troubles with the Wit, and balancing it with the Skill. And I'd probably have fallen for him if I'd met him as Tom Badgerlock.

The Fool is the counterpart to Fitz's identifiability. He's a mystery but we love him for it. He's the secret part of us that shows when we keep ourselves to ourselves.

For some reason I could never identify with Starling and Molly.
