    Either of the Weasely twins....some stuff they've said are classic, plus they also have the same attitude(for lack of knowing better word right now) as me: laid-back, serious when wanna be that kinda thing.

    Sirius Black - the adoptive father we'd all want, closely followed by Remus Lupin who's just an all round nice guy.

    :p forgot to say my fave, yeh Sirius just screams cool, and my second would actually be Voldemort. Just the way he is written, he's a brilliant character, dead fascinating.

    Has to be Snape for me. The whole is he good or is he bad mystery clinches it. It's almost the only reason I wanna read book 7.

    actually I am going to change my vote to Dumbledore. the dact that he is so easy going in the face of trouble, and that he has a great sense of humour. eg. when he announces the Tri-Wizard tournament is going to be held in Hogwarts and Fred shouts "YOU'RE JOKING!" he replies "no, I'm not, but on the topic I heard a fantastic one over the summer about a hag, a warlock and an elf who all walked into a bar..." only to be stopped by McGonnigal

    or the fact he tells Dobby he can call him a "barmy old codger". what a leg end.

    however Snape is my close second followed by Black

    I could never choose! Dumbledore, Lupin or the twins, I'd say.

    I'm also staying away from this forum until after I've read the last book, so as to avoid any spoilers! Just in case anyone is wondering where I am... ;)

    Ah, well, Hermione. Surprising that.

    However, I do love most of the characters; I find them very well-written and very 'real'.

    Could it be that maybe you think Alan Rickman is sexy? Because he definitely is! I'm not sure about Snape the character though. He is up there as one of my favourites. He's funny, clever and the more glimpses you get of his past the more sorry you feel for him. I definitely still think he's good, even after the sixth book. (I don't care if I'm spoiling the ending for someone; if you haven't read it, you're not a fan!)

    I don't know if he's my absolute favourite. I love the twins - they make me laugh out loud constantly and I really like Hermione, Harry, Dumbledore etc

    This is really hard but I suppose it will have to be Ron. Apart from all his obvious good qualities he has to put up with a lot. Imagine being known as either the twins' brother, Charlie and Bill's brother or Harry Potter's best friend? He never gets the recognition he deserves and he takes it well. And he's hilarious.

    snape - coz hes the most interesting character.the whole thing about him being a double agent is fascinating...plus hes funny!! "Crabbe,loosen your hold a little.If Longbottom suffocates it will mean a lot of tedious paperwork and I am afraid I shall have to mention it in your reference if you ever apply for a job" :D

    the other two i really like are luna and bellatrix lestrange (coz shes evil AND hot...or maybe i just love helena bonham carter???)

    the twins' best book was definitely with umbridge. they should have had more time dedicated to them i reckon, they were pure legend in that book.

    Ginny Weasley, not in the chamber of secrets or the other earlier books but in the HBP and DH. I think she's very strong and doesn't taek any crap. Like when Harry is talking to her in her bedroom in DH and she's not teary. Harry likes that about her and thinks it's because of all her brothers. I'd love to be elss emotional so I admire that in her!

    I think all the characters have their moments throughout the series, even the minor ones (
    Ms. Weasley taking on bellatrix
    and Prof. McGonnegell talking about Neville's grandmother in HBP come to mind). But my favourite has to be snape. All those one liners make him close to the Dr.Cox of Hogwarts! ;)

    HELLO! What about Gildroy Lockheart? He was the best thing about the second book. Such comedy. And Kenneth Brannagh has been my favorite actor to enter into the Harry Potter series

    What a voice Rickman has. Thats what makes him hot
    And young Voldemort is hhhot

    *Goes off to watch the second movie...*
