I voted for Geraden. To me he has all the qualities that I love in a man. (boyish charm and loveability, honesty, loyatly, self sacrificing...sigh) Ok, I know that is sappy but I don't read romance novels and this is as close to romance as Donaldson gets. (in my limited reading..I haven't read any of the short stories - just TCTC, MN & the Gap series)
I couldn't help but wonder why Teresa was the only woman on the list of choices. My second favorite was Lady Myste. I know she had a pretty minor roll but I really liked her character. Much more so than Elega. She seemed more pure and true. Elega will always have a ring of betrayal surrounding her in my eyes. I know she was justified, at least in her own mind, and forgiven later but I still don't like her actions.

OOPS! probably because who ever made this poll is a man and didn't think it throughly through!! I really dug Myste 2. And my secret fav character is: Quiss, actually! If MN Vol III is ever written I'd rather have her run Orison than any1 else...but...u probably couldn't blast her out of Domne w/a nuclear bomb!
fall far and well Pilots!

Yes, I liked Geraden and Myste, too. Both very likeable characters.
And what about Torrant? She turned up late in the book, shy and blushing, but really showed she had a lot of spunk and courage!

I am not that crazy about Elega either.
I am on the fence about Prince Kragen.
Dragon chaser, your sig is a riot.

I could not find my favourite in the poll . When I read MN (rather long ago, and it was quite a while since I reread them too), I fell head over heals in love with Gart. It was probably in a time of my life when I only fell for bad guys (oohh, Alan Rickman... ) I wrote a short story trying to explain why he became what he became when I was around 14 I think. My teacher at the time did not fancy it... Still think Gart is fascinating though.

Teresa. If any of us were thrown into her circumstances, with her background, I don't think we'd do half as good. She displayed brilliance at times, determination at others, and just plain-old trustworthiness throughout the whole ordeal. Sure she made mistakes, like trusting Eremis, but that only proves how clever she was to figure him out.

Blow away dandelion
