List of Favorite Lore Characters

[GenocideAlive]

This thread is for people of whatever Warcraft bloodlines (WoW, WCIII, etc.) to put up their favorite and least favorite characters in the Warcraft Lore. I'd just like some others to put up some of their background and who they like.

1. Arthas WCIII
2. Medivh WCI
3. Gul'dan WCII
4. Grom Hellscream WCIII
5. Illidan WCIII

Least favorite:

1. Illidan WCIII PC
2. Grom Hellscream WCIII PC
3. Arthas WCIII:TFT
4. Fucking Pandas. WCIII:TFT

Weird that my three least are the same as my three most? Yes and no. Arthas' character is very cool and interesting all the way through cutscenes. All his character interactions and movements are interesting and have a lot of depth. His in-play behavior is beyond irritating. He's whiney and uninteresting. Grom Hellscream in play is also annoying, because he's a Blademaster and Blademasters are generally overpowered in WCIII, along with Demon Hunters (Illidan). I personally believe that solo heroes + tech ruined that game altogether.

I hate the Panda. So overpowered. >_<

My favorites:
1. Chen Stormsnout
1. Illidan (no surprise if look at my signature, personal description etc.)
2. Velen
3. Grom Hellscream

My least favorites:
1. Arthas
2. Kil'jaeden
3. Sargeras

I like Chen... He's just cool. Look- he brings Panda-monium and I was always nearly laughing when he was splitting into those three elementals... I like Illidan because he is a victim, not a bad guy, but most of people look onto him as a Betrayer. I like Velen simply because he is like a... archangel. Truely, a prophet. And why Grom- because he sacrificed himself to save his people from the demonic influence.

I simply hate the next three guys- Arthas is a complete sonofabitch, I just want to be the first guy to kill him in WoW. I also hate Kil'jaeden because he's a true betrayer- traitor of his own species, leading it to become the demons. And last, Sargeras because he was responsible for creation of the demons.

I'm no lore expert but the argument could definitely be made that Illidan was not much different in that respect.

Anyway, I'm a pretty big fan of Tirion Fordring. I'm told we will see more of him in WoTLK, can't wait. The quest line at the scarlet tower in Western Plaguelands is one of my favorites in the game.

1. Every single dwarf, they can do no wrong. Except those fucking dark iron ones.
2. Arthas. Paladins are cool, even when they turn evil.
3. Hogger

[XarthatXio]

I know that the same argument can be used against Illidan, but I already told- I see him as a victim of betrayal, not a betrayer.

[Anoiktos]

I like, in this order:
1. Ner'zhul
2. Garona
3. Kadghar
4. Lothar
5. Uther
6. Jaina
7. Turalyon
