And yes, I do consider some games to be a part of literature.

Garet Jax the weaponmaster from the Wishsong of Shannara by Terry Brooks. His goal in life was to find something he couldnt defeat. In the end, he found his ultimate oponant and died fighting it. He still killed it though.
Now thats depth if you ask me.
Also Garviel Loken from the horus heresy series. he is deep and very cool

The most badass wizard ever, Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden. Conjure by it at your own risk.
Seriously, he stares down fairies queens, he takes on vampires for breakfast, saved the world a few times, killed a few Fallen angels and reanimated a fricking T-Rex skeleton to act as a mount for him on one night. And he's not even fifty.

Terry Pratchett's Death. Fantastic character, especially in Mort. Most of the time Death is a lovable character, but the end of Mort showed us that Death can be a scary mother fucker when he wants to be.
The others I can think of are Lee and Hector from the "His Dark Materials" trilogy, Lennie from "Of Mice and Men", and more recently Todd Hewitt from the "Chaos Walking" trilogy, of which only the first two books are out (seriously, I though I was done with children's books, but I'd rate the two so far in the same league as his dark materials easily)

How did I not mention that one!Longshot said:
I looked through the first page but I'm to lazy to read through all the pages so I'm assuming that no one else has said this. the greates character of all, Moist Von Lipwig. Vetinari, Spike, Gladys and everyone else in that book are awesome too but Moist is the greatest (the only ones that come close are the characters from Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy)
Holden Caulfield from Catcher in the Rye
Ford Prefect from The Hitchhiker's guide series
Le Petit Prince from Le Petit Prince
Napolean from Animal Farm
Sydney Carton from A Tale of Two Cities

Buster "Rant" Casey from Rant. Just for some of the most bizarre shit that he gets into. Made me fall over laughing in my high school physics class a few years ago. Best high school memory ever.
...And each time he does, he gets his ass kicked by an extremely confused emo boy, an impractical ninja, a robotic cat, a flaming kitty, a guy who thought a gun for an arm around a small child was a good idea, a bar tender, and and a man so angsty that he broods inside a coffin (which is inside a safe {which is then inside a deserted mansion}).avykins said:
Jesus pwns Satan himself.
He's like Dr. Manhattan. Painfully 1337, but makes it work in a somehow humble way.
Need I say more?
