I also have not read all the posts in this thread, but these are the guys I really like:

1. Mhoram
2. Banner
3. Saltheart Foamfollower (ok, so he's like 7 feet taller than me, so what?)

Re: What the Bloodguard keep under their robes. NOTHING. They fight without weapons remember? In the battle of Soaring Woodhelven they were pretty good with their fists, but none of them ever drew a sword...

Also if I was a girl I'd probably go for TC. Why? 1) he's the "hero" 2) he's got the wild magic and 3) he seems to stay young and virile (for a leper) while everyone else in the land grows old.

And he has that boyish charm and humourous, easy-going outlook on life?

Nah, he's more the "hidden depths" type. Unfortunately for you girls that like sensitive, caring, sharing types, our TC is almost totally expedient and self-serving. IMO he loves himself more than he cares about anyone else.

quite possibly but a man who is only self-serving doesnt generally sacrifice himself for a woman who dumped him years earlier .. ;)

nor take her in and care for her in her mentally distressing state ;)

nor sacrifice himself for a Land and people he has just met ;)

I think TC was clearly able to care about others .. and too often felt responsibility for others safety - but just wasnt a pro at expressing it ;)

not an unfamiliar theme i'd wager ;)

Hmm. true, perhaps my earlier judgement of him was a little too harsh and hasty. I'm sure he's really a good bloke at heart...

Quoth caamora,
I never pictured the Bloodguard as particularly attractive. I always pictured them kind of like cro-magnon man! Too big and burly for my taste.

Madame caamora! Do you rave?

I can teach any creature the art of staff wielding. anyway it's not how you wield it that's important, it's just the size... believe me

Which makes me wonder what, exactly, is emma's av looking at... ;)
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Well, Durris, if we can picture the Bloodguard as we have posted on the movie threads - as asian - then, I would totally be for Chow Yun Fat (sp?) or Ken Wantanabe!

Asian, granted; SRD's descriptions sound more Tibetan than Chinese or Japanese to me. Or maybe I'm being influenced by geography; the Westron Mountains resemble the Himalayas ("tigers roam these low heights").

I'm surprised there's not more mention of Covenant himself in this thread!!
Or maybe there just aren't many of us crazy enough to like moody types so much *grin*
