Apr. 6th, 2005 01:23 am1. Post a list of 15 fandoms.
2. Have your friends list guess your favourite character / pairing from each fandom.
3. When guessed, bold the line and write a sentence about why you like that character / pairing.
4. Post in your own LJ.
1) Lost - Locke. His backstory episode was one of my favorites. They faked us out about him so many times. I know he's been a bit creepy about the mysterious hatch lately, but aside from that everything he did seemed to be to try to help the others on the island (hunting, helping Hobbit with his drug addiction, helping Boone decide who he really is, helping Michael bond with his son, giving Claire something to do and a present at the same time, etc.)
2) Terry Pratchett/Discworld- Death - The books that feature Death as one of the main characters are some of my favorites, and his appearances in many of the others tend to be great scenes as well.
3) 24
4) Order of the Stick - Elan - He's a bard, and that's just inherently funny.
5) Farscape - Scorpius - One of the best villains ever. Truly sinister, utterly ruthless, but with goals and motivations that aren't actually evil. So many villains are just "evil for evil's sake."
6) Star Wars - Boba Fett - Yeah, it's not very original, but I liked him before I knew it was cool to like him. His was my favorite of our Star Wars action figures. He has about 2 lines in the movies, but still managed to have a lot of presence on the screen.
7) Harry Potter - Hermione - Her character has really grown. It was during the fourth book that she really cemented herself as my favorite. Yeah, I like Sirius and Lupin, but Lupin needs to grow a spine, and Sirius did a lot of whining when last we saw him. Hermione seems to be the only student at that school who actually thinks before she acts.
8) Justice League Unlimited (ye animated series) - I like Martian Manhunter, but on the series it's Batman that does all of the interesting stuff. When everyone is running around hitting meaningless pawns, he's downloading the information on how to trigger the whole base's self-destruct system. The rest of the team would be lost without him.
9) Invader Zim
10) Lord of the Rings - Legolas - Hey, the guy took out an entire war elephant by himself. He managed to be cool in spite of being an elf. That's no small feat.
11) Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Oz - Truly, he had some of the best dialog (and delivery of that dialog) ever. The scene where we overhear his thoughts via Buffy's temporary mind reading abilities was priceless.
12) Legend of the Five Rings - Bayushi Yojiro - The Master of Secrets. Honorable champion of the dishonorable clan. He rose from being the joke of his clan to lead it into a time of unprecedented influence and power.
13) Homestar Runner - The Cheat! He's The Cheat! He's cute and mysterious and probably the smartest one in the whole bunch.
14) Great Old Ones and Outer Gods - Nyarlathotep - Most of the big names seem to spend most of their time sleeping or just sitting around. Nyarlathotep is out there making things happen. Plus, he comes in 1000 different shapes! Collect them all!
15) Pasta shapes
