Playing Favourites

I decided to do a different special in celebration of the fiftieth New Story Idea. This time I'll be handing out awards to my favourite character in each story—although my rationale certainly tends to vary.

In order by New Fiction Idea, we have
  1. Clyde, who's adorable and quirky (and also Scottish) even after... I won't spoil it for you, but he ought to be tired of everything by the time the story starts.
  2. Julian, because he's fantastically sarcastic and still helps people despite his crabbiness.
  3. Joel, who's an optimistic cutie and a religious one at that.
  4. Jordan, even though he's kind of majorly a jerk and needs to stop hitting on taken women.
  5. The twin lady, who only vaguely surfaced as a character but is pretty kick-butt and unselfish.
  6. Athena, seeing as she's the only one with a name and sort of has that Jerk with a Heart of Gold thing going on.
  7. Edwin, although it's a difficult choice for this one and may just be based on his name.
  8. Macbay, because his sense of humour is just off enough for me.
  9. Josephine, (another difficult decision) because she's the small fighter type and a worrywart.
  10. Chester, who's an utter dork and nerd and has the most fun perspective in the story.
  11. Andromache, (again a close one) because she's a proper lady and still kicks butt in every sense.
  12. Gavin, mostly since he's not that restrained emotionally.
  13. Dobson and Crick, who apparently still count as one character and basically still have no development yet strike my fancy.
  14. Ian, because he's a kook.
  15. Lorenzo, who's overly dramatic and just a lot of fun.
  16. Benny, for his lightly-portrayed paranoia.
  17. Kaliause, who has lightened up considerably since her conception and just makes a great sidekick.
  18. Peter, because he's the only one who was that interesting upon showing up.
  19. Cerise, because she kicks butt and knows how to be sneaky.
  20. Malcolm, due to sarcasm (being based off England never hurts).
  21. Andraste, who seems like a sweetheart.
  22. Lennon, because he's evil.
  23. Shelton, because he's a big guy who's socially awkward.
  24. M, who's sympathetic, confused, and has cool powers.
  25. John, (another hard decision) for his general optimism.
  26. Donny, because how can you not like a version of Don Quixote?
  27. Cayman, who's sharp, sneaky, kick-butt, and surprisingly positive given her role in the udnerworld.
  28. Francisco, because he's the most melodramatic dork pirate around.
  29. Rachel, who kicks butt and is generally too enthusiastic in an amusing way.
  30. Henry, who stands up for his morals like no other.
  31. Edgard, for his pretend British side and general neuroticism.
  32. Helen, (difficult choice) because she kicks butt but still needs help and is a brat on occasion.
  33. Midas, because he's just cool.
  34. Aiko, because she's a cutie.
  35. Daniel, who's nerdy and an underdog type.
  36. Natalie, because she's easily startled and I just tend to prefer side characters in general.
  37. Onyekachi, who's morally myopic but stands his ground.
  38. Liliána, for no solid reason.
  39. Jaron, who's a dork, rock fan, and band nerd.
  40. Chuck, because he's based on another character I love dearly.
  41. Lola, who's weird to the point of intrigue.
  42. Jenny, because she's just sort of a cool cat who knows how to handle things.
  43. Chlodovech, for his childish pugnacity.
  44. Alexandra, because she was a wonderful human being and makes a terrifying antagonist.
  45. George, who's a dork that wants to save everyone.
  46. Lazarus, the protective older brother.
  47. Rithia, for her introversion.
  48. Jim, because he's the only one who's really jumped out at me.
  49. Vega, who just kicks butt, plain and simple.
  50. Marius, because he's silly.

  1. This was fun to read, and helped me remember some of the older story ideas that I'd forgotten. Looking for a theme, you seem to have a lot of cuties/dorks, kickass females, and sarcastic cynics here. I'm surprised there aren't more psychos. XD In all honesty, though, your choices are pretty fitting for you.

    Also, I bet Jim is the bad guy in New Fiction #48.

    1. Yeah, I guess so. A little hard to combine all of those in the same character.

      Hmhmm, is that so?
