Default Favorite adventure characters

Here is my list of favorite adventure characters.

Max (S&M)
Hogie (Dott)
Wally (MI 2,3)
King Grahm (KQ)
Lavern (Dott)
Grand Master (Broken Sword)
Hermon Toothrot (MI)
Largo (MI2)
Gabriel Knight
Ben (Full Throttle)

My mind went blank when making this list so I probably left alot out. What is everyone else's list?

Guybrush Threepwood!
And then Zanthia.

There are plenty more AG characters that I love, granted, but these two are the best.

If I had to marry an AG character it would probably be, errm, Salammbo. Because she is so, errm, clever.

Good God, I can't believe I forgot him. Yes Murray is the king. His role in Monkey Island 4 made it worth playing the game alone. Good job!!!!

I liked Guybrush of course but for some reason he is just an average charcter in my eyes that didnt have the extra humor, crazy dialogue or insane look to him that made him stand out.

Are we talking about thesame Guybrush here? :eek: Because he is one of the best characters ever, he said (and/or thought ) tons of funny stuff, I don't even know where to begin.

His General Incompetence is what makes him such a likeable character. You don't have to be crazy and zanny to be an interesting character, if fact to zanny is a major turn off for me because I can't relate.
