Favorite character in Literature?
The topic name explains this :p.
My favorite character would have to be Dexter Morgan from Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay. He is a serial killer who kills other serial killer,fakes his emotions,AND has good dark humor.
My favorite part of him is that he is heartless.

Scarlett O'Hara, of Gone with the Wind fame.
She's not a character to be sympathized with - indeed, she's in many ways repulsive - but you can't help but be drawn to her sheer tenacity. Once she sets herself on a path, the gods themselves would be knocked aside in her frenzy to the finish line.
