Ok, so last night I had a dream that I was Etta!! And come to think of it, she probably is one of my favourite characters from the Liveship books, even though I'm only halfway through the second one.
Other faves of mine are probably Fitz, Paragon, Brashen. Um. . . Amber. I prefer Amber to the Fool, which is odd! The Fool always got on my nerves a bit! :p
Anyways, what does everyone else think?!
 
Id love to be Chade, when he believes Fitz dead and he goes into the stage of running around with fitz's charging buck emblem on his forehead. I love that section.

Either Chade or Verity.

Ive never read liveship because ive never been able to get into them as theyve held no interest which is unfortunate because Hobb is a fantastic writer.
 
Oh I loved loved loved Liveships! My favourite trilogy although to contradict that slightly, my favourite characters are Nighteyes, Burrich, the Fool, Brashen and of course Paragon!

Malta, without question. . . (the girl not the horse). The why is a bit trickier. I went from wanting to strangle her to wanting to pick up a sword to defend her. I thought she was beyond hope but she had the experience of having her world crumble to bits and it was the best thing for her because she was forced to grow. And I was so proud of her (snif snif):( oh, no, I will not cry. With the witness stone as my witness, I . . . will . . . not . . . give us a moment luv
 
Brashen was my fav character i think. although i have only read liveship traders and the fool trilogy. maybe i can relate to him, hes a bit damaged in some ways, not opposed to escapism now an then, i.e. cindin for him, other things for me, but he ends up doin good, an bein happy. spose i hope that will happen for me as well or somethin...
 
Do you mean to say you pretend to be the opposite sex also? :p Joking.
 
the fool first. chade, nighteyes and parragon joint second. everyone else i didn't mind, except for the rest of the liveship characters (exlcuding etta. she was also ok for me,) who i loathed with a passion.

I said Brashen, not the fool (who was amber in liveships. that one was the transsexual or wotever u wanna call him/her).
 
*screams out*
The Fool!
*room goes quiet and everyone looks...
...winces in embarrassment*

(slightly more quietly...)
The fool...He is FREAKIN AWESOME!!!....well thats my opinion of course :)
My...to steal the expression from Rahl there...favourite favorite fantasy character period:)

And Of course i have a big soft spot for dear Fitzy...

I find it interesting that you liked Amber more mouse...for me they are the same person...in fact thats why continued to read about amber:)
 
me too! that's the only reason i read liveshiops, was for amber. amber was a very different character tho, seemed to have more visions, seems more strange and distant, more calm and collected, less mad and sensitive and fool like. but i prefer fool of the last series to the fool of the first, or amber. the one we get to know far better. and i love him as a lord golden. fops rule! :)
 
Don't know really why I prefer Amber! Maybe it's as Faery Queen says, Amber's more calm and, I think, reliable, than the Fool.

I understand what your saying and ill have to agree with that lol:) .

for me though, It's the knowledge that the more serene persona of amber can indeed be the erratic fool that really draws my interest to her.

but i prefer fool of the last series to the fool of the first, or amber. the one we get to know far better. and i love him as a lord golden. fops rule! :)

The fool of the first series was hilarious even without knowing him but yes, there was a greater emotional connection in the latter series

LOL!!!!
GO THE FOPS!!:D lovin him pulling off that character! I'm with you there faery queen
 
:D they're my favourite type of character, relaly. not when they're too campy, but at the right level :) i didn't find the first fool that funny! i have a weird sense of humour tho, tho i did laugh at his joke that he made on the road with fitz. getting himt o say that he loved him (it's vague in my head) that made me laugh, but most of the time he was just cool and strange looking which attracted me :)
 
I was very fond of Fitz after six books about his life. However my favourite would have to be Chade. There's just something about him.
 
My Favourites are (in order): Malta, Althea, Wintrow, Fitz and Nighteyes, then Amber, then the Fool. I preferred his guise as Amber as well because she seemed more capable than the Fool. And the Fool annoyed me a bit with his almost obsession over Fitz.

Best Liveship has to be Ophelia though. She was great.
 
Yay another Malta fan! She was my unexpected favorite. I prefer Amber to her guise as the fool and lord golden.
 
In Assasin trilogy I like: Fitz and Nigheyes and the women - i do not remember her name (she was travelling with the Fitz, she was a Singer?)
In Liveship traders trilogy i like: Althea and Malta, Ryan, Amber oh and Ophelia
