canis_takahari gave me the letter M:
Macbeth
I know he was a historical figure, but my Macbeth is always going to be the iteration from Gargoyles: a noble warrior with good intentions tricked into immortality by the Weird Sisters, with a nihilistic edge honed over a thousand-year war with the woman who betrayed him, who slowly finds his way back to heroism again.
Seriously, what's not to love? That he was voiced by John Rhys-Davies just made him more epic.
Morgaine
The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley was one of those books that will change your life whenever you read it, but when you read it during your formative years? It will probably explain a lot. And talk about the road paved to hell with good intentions: she wanted to protect those she loved, champion her people and her goddess, and increasingly isolates herself from her friends, family, and loved ones by continually doing the wrong things for all the right reasons. When she finds a measure of peace at the end, it breaks your heart every damn time.
Melisande Sharizai
My favorite villain of all-time: a gorgeous, brilliant Machiavelli who I always wanted to know more about. She plays a major part in Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Dart and is a peripheral character ever afterwards, always manipulating people through love and blood, able to play the game six moves in advance. I'd love to meet her, be charmed by her, and then get the hell out of her way.
Marie Penthièvre
The heroine of Gillian Bradshaw's Wolf Hunt, loosely based on The Laies of Marie de France, she is good-hearted and clever, and learns to look into the truth of people by overcoming her own prejudices. And then she falls in love with a guy stuck in the guise of a wolf. It's like Beauty and the Beast, but somehow better.
Malcom Reynolds
The original Captain Tightpants. Dark, bitter, brutal, slightly psychotic, funny as hell, with his own brand of honor. Damn you, Reynolds, I'll love you til the day I die.
