I can't pick a favourite, argh!... Well. Actually I loved Li'ain the most <3 I'm not sure why, actually. I got all joyful when she was around. She moved me. :B Also liked Gerdi! So cute! I cried when he cried. And.. Ryushi. And Kia. and Tatterdemalion. All the characters were so wonderfully written with interesting, intricate personalities, so it's hard for me to not like any of them! But overall, I think I like Li'ain best. :3

I don't mean to be mainstream, but I liked Tatterdemalion the best. By a lot. And I ship Tatti/Aurin. Even though she kind of forgot about him in the end (damn Corm stealing the spotlight). Out of all the groups of characters, I liked Aurin and her henchies the best. They beat Parakka any day. I absolutely HATED Kia. The whole revenge thing just rubbed me the wrong way from the first scene it appeared. Three (or nine, as it used to be) books full of it was almost more than I could handle. I can understand her being angry for most of Twilight War, but after than I wanted to say to her, "Jeez, b*tch, stop killing people!" *fumes* Characters that get an honorable mention include Gerdi, Whist, Corm (even though I'm still annoyed at him), Takami, Iriqui, and every single Jachyra.

I never liked Kia - the revenge thing for me again made me not like her. It was understandable for awhile, but then it's 'So you want to get revenge on Macaan - get in line'. But she did stop Calica from running off and killing Aurin (who saved the day on a few occasions during act three), so not all bad I suppose.
Everyone forgot about Tatterdemalion in the end.
I also prefer Aurin and her henchies over Parakka... every time I read Aurin going searching for Parakka/Ryushi after leaving Fane Aracq, I always imagine them camping out in the middle of nowhere.
I talked to a fan once who said the queen was their favourite character... I didn't understand how that was even possible, and vaguely wondered if we reading the same Broken Sky books.
Edit: On going back through this thread, I've realised I never stated who my favourite character is - Macaan (followed by Aurin, then Whist, Elani, Peliqua, Ryushi in no practicular order).

Everyone forgot about Tatterdemalion in the end. Yes! D: I read through part nine or what it was and re-read the bit about Tatty's last moments. And Corm. Gosh, I really liked those two. *laughs* Must be the fact that they were Aurin's true friends and as pissed off at Macaan as Aurin herself. And everybody else. *wants a Tatterdemalion-Action-Figurine* That'd be neat. About Kia: The revenge-thing isn't really something I like very much. I must admit that when I was smaller it seemed to be somewhat neat and nifty but truth be told: I cannot enjoy it nowadays. XD Kia was too set on revenge and disliking everyone. Of course, that suited the story more than a light-hearted happy Kia. And I liked the fact that in the end she got round to being nice again. Constantly. In a way. Overall, a nice character development. Kaiku handled her revenge-trip better.

Yes, she did. XD
Speaking of Kaiku, I noticed many small ideas (and large ones, too, I guess) in Broken Sky that have appeared in other or Chris' books (mostly Braided Path). I like it; it make the story seem sort of familiar, though not enough to be copied.

Elani for me, with Tatterdemallion (of course) and Aurin coming in joint second because I can't quite decide which of the two I like the best.

I voted for Ryushi, of course. (Hence my username.) He was my favorite from the very beginning.
And not just because he's smoking hot. LOL.

Whist by a mile, but Tatterdemallion was damn cool too.
