my answer to all* of these questions is Roland (the "kiss" question including, only preceded with "If I was gay..."). That said, I'll put him outside the brackets, and in my next post will use only characters other than him.
*with the only exception of #3
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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*checks all the questions again with Jean's answer on her mind*
That's a really weird answer, Jean. Still... it is good.
Anyway,
isn't Susannah your favourite character?
About the kiss... it can be a friendly kiss as well, like the ones girls give each other when they meet in the street.
1. Who is your favourite character? I gotta say Eddie Dean!
2. Who is your least favourite character? Oh. I was going to say Mordred..but I changed my mind. Mia. She was just so niave and a little dumb, I think. Single mindedness to the point of annoying.
3. Who are you the most similar to? Ooooh. Great one...I am going to say Susannah because although she was tough and along for the quest like everyone else, she had her softer side and she had the more nuturing side that the other characters didn't.
4. Who is the sexiest? Eddie. Post addiction Eddie. He's like the Robert Downey Jr of the DT world. Not so great when on drugs, but pretty hot when he's clean!
5. Who is the funniest? Honestly its a toss up for me between Eddie & Roland, I mean Eddie DID
Spoiler:
seave the world with a dead baby joke
but when Roland let his funny show it was always more powerful since he rarely did it.
6. Who would you like to kiss? Jake (on the cheek) with a big hug, too. And Oy!!
7. Who would you like to slap? Andy the Messenger Robot!
8. Who would you like to know more about? Ted Braughtigan. I was kind of excited to see him come into the story and get a little more explaination of the low men..but I want more of his story.
9. Who is the most innocent? Shamey!! The sweet, niave innocence that only the 'disabled' posses. I envy him sometimes.
10. Who is the most heartless? More than likely CK.
Spoiler:
he was willing to put his own SON on the line to further his goals, not caring what may happen to him physically or emotionally
11. Who could you write about in an 10-page-long essay? Well, Roland is the easy choice on that one, we have the most information on him! Maybe it would be interesting to try to get 10 pages down about Susan though....
12. Who is the most powerful? I am going to go on a limb and say the Eddie/Susannah combo. Call me a hopeless romantic, but I think the raw power of their love for each otehr may have been responsible for a lot of their victories.
13. Who is the trickiest? Roland. You nevere really knew what to expect for him. You know he loved his Ka-tet, but you also knew he would throw them by the wayside if he had to. Regardless if he wanted to or not. I think that made him tricky, they loved him & he loved back, but they always had to remind themselves of where they really stood.
14. Who is the most annoying? Mia.
15. Who is the biggest victim of the series? Oy. He wasn't there to gain anything for himself or see anything for himself, he was there because he loved Jake. The loyal pet.
1. Who is your favourite character? Definitely Roland
2. Who is your least favourite character? Mia (she mostly annoyed me)
3. Who are you the most similar to? Hard one - maybe Alain (.... never the front man)
4. Who is the sexiest? Oh, Susan!
5. Who is the funniest? 'Bert
6. Who would you like to kiss? Susan again!
7. Who would you like to slap? Gasher
8. Who would you like to know more about? Roland (the missing years)
9. Who is the most innocent? I'd probably say Jake (though in many ways he wasn't)
10. Who is the most heartless? Could say Andy, but then he was mechanically heartless to begin with. Maybe I'll say Depape (that boy was a born killer)
11. Who could you write about in an 10-page-long essay? I guess Roland
12. Who is the most powerful? Roland again.
13. Who is the trickiest? Walter
14. Who is the most annoying? Have to vote Mia again (see above)
15. Who is the biggest victim of the series? Was inclined to say Roland, but is he? I'll say Susan.
my answer to all* of these questions is Roland (the "kiss" question including, only preceded with "If I was gay..."). That said, I'll put him outside the brackets, and in my next post will use only characters other than him.

Anyway,
isn't Susannah your favourite character?
Susannah is my favorite character. Roland stands alone. I can't compare him.
About the kiss... it can be a friendly kiss as well, like the ones girls give each other when they meet in the street.
I can hardly imagine Roland and myself giving each other a kiss like the one girls do when they meet...

8. Who would you like to know more about? - Aaron Deepneau
9. Who is the most innocent? - Ben Slightman, Jr.
10. Who is the most heartless? - Mia.
11. Who could you write about in an 10-page-long essay? - only ten? anyone
12. Who is the most powerful? - Aunt Talitha

Why would you slap Roland, Brice? And how can be heartless and innocent at the same time?
I am getting to love this thread.
For missing so much he should have seen earlier. To wake him up from his mindless cruelty a bit sooner.
And of course, just to test his reflexes.
He is not really innocent, but his ignorance makes him unaware of his failings...which to my mind is a sort of innocence. Basically he learns too slow.
Also, it's not that he's heartless, but his mindless drive towards his goal causes him to do lots of cruelty especially early on in the tale.

I wish that I could write fiction, but that seems almost an impossibility. -howard phillips lovecraft (1915)
2. Who is your least favourite character? I like them all... maybe the Tick-Tock Man because everyone is so crazy about him and I don't really understand why. But I liked him as well.
3. Who are you the most similar to? Jake
4. Who is the sexiest? Roland / Rosalita
5. Who is the funniest? Eddie
6. Who would you like to kiss? Jake on his face and give him a big hug
7. Who would you like to slap? Andy but I would prefer to use a gun
8. Who would you like to know more about? Roland
9. Who is the most innocent? It might sound insane but Mordred
10. Who is the most heartless? CK
11. Who could you write about in an 10-page-long essay? Everyone in the ka-tet
12. Who is the most powerful? Roland
13. Who is the trickiest? Flagg
14. Who is the most annoying? Andy
15. Who is the biggest victim of the series? It's hard to choose between Mia and Mordred, maybe Mordred
It's interesting that many of you find Susan the sexiest. I think she was beautiful inside and out but I didn't find her sexy. Okay, I know I am a woman maybe that's why I don't get it (however I do like Susan).

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.
well her situation with her family was crazy. i didn't actually like her character so much but i did sympathize.. she was in an awful predicament and was trying to do the right thing then decided to do something else... i think she may be one of the more complicated characters.

And how could you not like WaG if you found her character this fascinating? I mean.. most of the people who don't like WaG don't like it because of her.
i thought the character had pretty good depth and stuff... but i still didn't like her if you can get my meaning.. it's kind of hard to explain... i also didn't like WaG tho because it deviated from the story i was trying to read.. i didn't care enough about Roland's Susan and back story to have to read a whole book about it.
