Probably. Not sure if I'd pick Sunder, though. More thought will be required...

Oh! I'll vote for one as FF, and one as Han! :D

Grimmand Honninscrave. His dedication enabled him to survive the loss the purpose in his life, and out of the ruin of his soul he managed through sheer force of will to wrest a form of victory at the last.

Pitchwife by far.

Although Nom and Honninscrave win honorable mentions for the two coolest scenes.-jay

Is the Linden hate here so strong that she's not even listed as a choice?? Surely she's not supposed to be included in "other"??

Linden was my fav.

NO Lord FOUL?? what about Hamako? no TC? None of the Ravers were listed either. :D :P what about Dirhishitar the 4th waynhim that gave TC blood for his journey? jk

I chose Sunder because he reminds me of a Reincarnation of Triock without the hatred of TC...but then so did Hamako with a much smaller script.

My bad ya'll, I dropped the Illcrest on this one...I was going to include Linden, but Foul didn't seem to "be there" as much in this story. I thought about including Hamako, but his part was so small, Ravers played bit parts that had no character interaction besides umm...help me out here, guess I should've included him-problem is that the amount I did is the most the sight will allow

And yes, no TC...he's the 'tagonist.

I wondered about that, too, when I didn't see her name.

Linden is also my favorite 2nd Chrons character.

Therefore, to protest her exclusion, I did not vote in this poll. :|

(No, voting "Other" doesn't cut it - not when it comes to, oh, just the most important character in the entire 2nd trilogy besides Covenant himself.)

Bah Humbug! :P

Grimmand Honninscrave without a doubt, the best quote for me from all the chronicles is 'Stone and Sea Honninscrave bravely done' it makes me cry everytime - I love the Giants - all of them, but this one surpasses them all, and his death is magnificent.

Had to vote for Nom just based on the OSF for me personally. I remember the first reading when TC said that word I was like WTF????? and then the imagery of the sand gorgon spiinnning toward them i was like damn what is this thing and had to keep reading (although that is much of the Chronicles for me lol)

Vain is a close second because of his secrecy and his "stance" toward Findail

I haven't read the Second Chronicles in years, but the character that always stands out the most in my memory is Pitchwife. His cheerfulness and humor with everything happening around him was inspiring... I need to re-read them again! I'm always too busy though - In fact this is my first post in months... I work too much!! :-x
You see much that is hidden O' Tim... ...Quite!
