I know it's too easy, but I just DO love the Fool/Lord Golden. Particularly the third book of the Assassin trilogy and the first book of the Tawny Man trilogy. Amber, slightly less so, but probably just because she was more of a minor character in that setting.
I'm utterly fascinated by his background, the 'two fathers, who were cousins, as was the custom of that land' really intrigues me. I'd love to know more about his culture, whether his people are like him or not!
Dragon Keeper
Other characters I love are Burrich [so duty-bound, so completely devoted to 'doing the right thing' whether he wants to or not], Shrewd [very like his namesake, when he still had his health!], and Ronica Vesrit [still fighting for her family when everything crumbled apart]
Oh! and the hedge-witch's [dammit, what was her name?] cat:
"Fish for the cat."
"Why should I give you fish?"
"Because I am the cat"
