I also like Bruce-esque characters in that you can have a character who talks an entirely different game than what they do. They may talk about how many people they've killed, but in battle go run and hide (okay, extreme example).
I have a character I love who spends most of his time professing how shallow he is, when in some ways he is the heart of the book.
