In no particular order, I would say that my favourite characters are Granny Weatherwax, Nanny Ogg, Sam Vimes, Cohen the Barbarian, Mustrum Ridcully, DEATH and of course Rincewind, for his cynicism, his pessimism, his humanism, compassion and his incredible bravery. (Yes, bravery... Think about it for a moment or two.) As a cat person and cat owner, I'd also like to say that Greebo rocks.

How many deaths has Dorfl been responsible for? Didn't he help create the white golem? :lol:

Hi Danny!

Not particulary, but pretty much in this order: Vimes and the whole city watch, Moist and Groat, Vetinari, Death, the Librarian, Maurice... oh, and the wizards (and the wizzard). And William de Worde. And Otto.
Oh, what the heck: All of them! :D

But if I have to choose one single character, only one without any exceptions, it has to be Sam Vimes. :D

Has to be "The Duke"

Postby CrossleeSaint » Thu Sep 17, 2009 4:08 pm

Just has to be "The Duke" (and we are not talking John Wayne" Sir Samuel Vimes my fav he just ticks all the boxes and "The Watch series" of books are the ones I love most.
Captain Carrot does run him close, but Sam Vimes does what it says on the box...with bells on.
I am coming late to Discworld but loving very bit of it (have read 11 books in the last month).
