Who is your favorite character that you created. Describe him/her and tell why you like them so much.
Mine is an elf named Sennal. More specificly she is a Southern Elf, which means she has darker skin and Green hair and eyes.
Through all my characters she is the smartest and is the only one who can use sorcery. She fits the stereotype elf in the sense that she is extremely prideful and thinks her race is better than any other and won't eat meat and lives for a long time. She holds several other races in pure contempt actually and goes beyond to thinking she is the smartest person in the world and even looks down on other elves (especially one of her traveling buddies who seems to have lost his Elfness after a war.) and her teachers.
Despite her infinate knowledge she has little experience in the real world and doesn't work well under stress. But her magic is as big as her ego so she's a valuable asset.
What makes this actually amusing is that by elven standerds she is young, only 21. This doesn't seem like much to us but for elves, who start their slow aging process at 10, this slows her aging so that to a human she still look like she is 13 or 14. Its kinda funny seeing a know-it-all kid and the others tease her about it.
Over time she is dissillusioned about her race and grows a sarcastic streak but is generally gentler and more understanding to others. Her power continues to expand and eventually it almost consumes her (literaly). And she is consumed with grief when she discovers her people had been wiped out by an enemy force.
I like her because she was the first character I created when I first started writing. I made her into a rather unlikable character at first, but I put so much of myself in her that she mellowed out over time. She's trustworthy and loyal, if a bit ambitious and power-hungry. I always see her saying what I would say if I was there and seems to be an extention of myself. That's why I like her.

Actually, she was Tariel before I was
