If you could make one character from fiction real?

[Ann]

Who would it be? :3

[Adrian]

That's a very dangerous proposal that could tear apart the fabrics of space and time as we know it.

[Carl]

I don't have twitter crushes but I have book crushes. Just one example: Anne Elliot--what a woman!

Exactly. I just skimmed over a list of my favorite books in my head and I think bringing any or all of them to life would be... scary, to say the least.

[G.G.]

Santa Klaus! For me it would have to be HIM!

(Does it count? He is fictional, just not from a book...)

[Nicole]

William Clayton Carver, Lord Stonelocke. Yes, he's MY character. UGH. He is utter perfection and looks like this: http://jenautos.awardspace.com/soaps/...

[Dawn]

Zedd from Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth series. He would be handy to have floating around.

[Claire]

There are so many... But I agree with Dawn, Zedd sounds like such an interesting person.

Yes. Especially if the character is the Doctor. You just know everything else will leak into reality with him.

[G.G.]

Oh I like Zedd!!

I guess I like wizards, even the crazy old ones since I also like Zifnab from Death Gate Cycle, but no, I wouldn't want him to pop up magically in our world. That'd be way too risky for us! :P

[Ann]

This question got alot deeper than I thought it would

o__o

I feel like if I ever get magical powers I will quickly destroy the universe.

[Carl]

And Sonya from "Crime and Punishment."

[Vanessa Eden]

omg, I have many but the two I can think of right now are James Alexander Malcolm McKenzie and Stephen DeWarren.
I may add to this topic later. :)

[Carl]

And Lisbeth Salander who could kick my ass.

[G.G.]

@Vanessa Who's James Alexander Malcolm McKenzie? (wow long name to type!) and Stephen DeWarren?

@Carl Same question. Where do you find Lisbeth Salander?

[Carl]

G.G., Stieg Larsson's "Girl With the...." trilogy. Great stuff.

[G.G.]

Thanks :) I might have to check it out some day (if I ever find time).

[Ann]

Oh god those books :x When I read about the inspiration for them it kinda makes my soul scrunch in recoil whenever they are mentioned.

[Carl]

Bisky, agreed. But after you get through the first 50 pages of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo then the story & characters pull you along.

[Ann]

I've wanted to read it in Swedish actually. Might give it a go.

[Carl]

Very nice! I sometimes forget that you live in Scandinavia. I'm jealous.

[Carl]

My mum's maiden name was Dahlstedt.

[Ann]

Its a lovely place. Took a road trip yesterday, hours of driving through forests, was so lovely. Nice! You have some Scandiavian heritage then :3 My last name is Irish and Viking's is Finnish. No one ever knows how to spell our names over the phone, lol.

[G.G.]

My nephew visited Norway last spring. (Lucky guy!) He said it's funny how everyone out there is blond and good looking.

[Ann]

Its the land of the six foot bombshell. They have a very healthy lifestyle so everyone here is slim and toned (had a real crisis of self confidence when I moved :P) Though, I'm not in the right place for the men apparently, thats the captial of the country where I live. (Will be visiting there in a few weeks and will give reports :P)

Viking isn't 100% Scandiavian so he isn't blonde or blue eyed. He's also alittle shorter than me :p

[Carl]

I'm half German. Then Swedish & Finnish; English & Irish. had my dna tests a few years ago & found I have archaic Chinese ancestors, one probably rode across the steppes and settled near Finland. No Genghis Khan in my blood.

[G.G.]

@Bisky and Carl That's ok. Mixed blood are the best anyway! :P
My father's ancestors were among the first settlers to come to Canada from France. And my mother's parents were from Italy. So I'm good. I'm mixed too. ;)

[Ann]

Oh I feel so British and boring, lol. I'd love to take a DNA test! My hole family is incredibly tall, wouldnt surprise me if it linked back to scandiavia somehow :3

[Harmony]

@ Adrian - have to agree ... scary thought :3
Albus Dumbledore - I'd sleep better at night knowing he was watching out for the side of good, just so long as his nemesis didn't have to come along too ...
Next up would have to be Raffe from Angelfall by Susan Ee ... brave and sexy - a girl can dream can't she?

[G.G.]

@Bisky I'd love that too, except for me, I think they would discover that Tolkien was right and dwarves really exist. ;) Everyone in my family is short, except the new generation.

Your family might well be from these countries, and you're just going back to the sources.

[Vanessa Eden]

@gg...James Alexander Malcolm McKenzie is from outlander and Stephen DeWarren is from Promise of the rose

[G.G.]

@Vanessa Tks :) I might have to check those out too then. I like good male protagonists. :)
