    Rincewind and Sam Vimes. Pity the Wizards don't make more of an appearance outside of the Susan/ Rincewind books.

    I'm surprised more people haven't said Death. He is a great character. Vetinari is always enjoyable too, as are the city guards.

    You may have a poiunt there Wilko. Constable Buggy Swires and Wee Mad Arthur whilst short in stature, loom large in my mind when I think of the Discworld.
