    I am not sure it is a character. Or else we might count the Dark Tower in... or Roland's guns.

    Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
    When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)

    bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    the Tower and the Rose are certainly different than the guns, no? The Rose speaks, the Tower speaks. The Rose is a living thing which communicates. The people who've seen the Rose swear allegiance to it because of an emotional connection made with it when it speaks. That is interpersonal communication worthy of "character" status. The guns are just machines.

    I think Wolf (from the good guys.) I hope we get to see more of that species in Talisman 3 too.

    Out of the bad guys... I suppose Walter (if you class him as non human). Otherwise Richard Sayre was quite an interesting character in his own right. Rather like Flagg really in his style of speech,
    Spoiler:
    I never figured him for being a low man when he was first introduced to the story Wolves of the Calla. The way Callahan described him you get the impression he is something else... although it turned out just to be a higher IQ.

    That's a good point, R of G....the rose should count as a non-human character. It speaks, it lives, it connects with others.

    But, I have to choose Oy for my favorite character. I love Oy to pieces.

    Oy! I want a billy bumbler of my own more than I could explain (and more than any non-DT fan could understand!). I loved that little guy.

    Although the Turtle is a good one!!

    He was born human. Whatever extended his life is up for discussion, but King clearly states Walter Paddick was born a man.

    I adore Oy. I think the Dark Tower story could have never been complete without him. He's the bravest, cutest, smartest billy bumbler the worlds will ever see. That said, Wolf will always be my favorite non-human character ever. ::Sniffle::

    Well, pick the nine most popular, and reserve the tenth for "something else", and we'll be happy to add it

    am i retarded? who is Wolf?

    Human kind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. That is alchemy's first law of Equivalent Exchange. In those days, we really believed that to be the world's one and only truth.

    You're not retarded. Perhaps you've just not read The Talisman. Wolf is one of the major characters in that book.

    I think Kojak in The Stand was a good doggy. His part wasn't all that sizeable but...

    Spoiler:
    He did save Stu.


    I'm not sure if that's exactly a spoiler but it doesn't hurt to be safe.
