This is a new meme hosted by Jillian at Random Ramblings. The week's (Tuesday to Monday) topic is "Fictional Characters". I had to think on this a few days.
Here are the ones I picked - in no particular order although the first five came to mind quicker than the rest.
Several people picked characters from Harry Potter - I picked a different Wizard.
1. Gandalf the Grey from Lord of the Rings.
(Aragorn would be a good choice too.)2. Chloe from the TV series 24
Just look at this sulk!She manages the computer sooo well!
3. Sookie Stackhouse from the Vampire Series
by
Charlaine Harris. From the book not the TV series.I'm waiting for the next book due out in May!
4. Tempe Brennan
from the Bones series
by Kathy Reichs.

book that was just released.
6. Yelena and 7. Valek

I LOVED all three books!
8. Doc--Delilah Oliver Clementyne the heroine of 
Girl Gone Nova
by Pauline Baird Jones
Doc's mission is to do the impossible.
Usually she succeeds!
Sara from The Key, the first book
in the series, was close behind this choice.
I like the character.
This is the only movie I liked this actor in.
10. Lucy Eleanor Moderatz
played by Sandra Bullock in the
Movie While You Were Sleeping
I also liked her character,
Angela Bennett in The Net.
Okay - guess I like quirky characters.
Also rans:
I had these listed but then remembered Yelen and Valek so they got bumped.
11. Quigley from the Movie
12. Dustfinger from Inkheart by Cornelia Funke -
Again from the book not the movie.

He is an exceedingly flawed character IMHO.
