You know the ones - not the *gush, swoon, melt* kind of unforgettable but those funny or quirky ones that you WISH you could forget and that you can't stand (e.g. Scarlett O'Hara, anyone?!) but you remember anyway.

Here are some examples:

Photobucket
Prince Humperdink from Princess Bride

Photobucket
Gilderoy Lockhart from Harry Potter

I agree! Doloris Umbridge! Impossibly unforgettable!

Yeah. No one can guess the evil she carries under that pink, sweet, cat-loving body of hers!

I would have to say Dolores Umbridge, No matter how much I want to forget her I can't even though she is evil

Two other characters - Magnus Bane (not evil, just funny unforgettable!) and Woolsey Scott (the werewolf clan leader) both from Cassie Clare;s books! They were so so funny!!!

Another one: Ariella *SPOILER* in Iron Knight. I mean, I thought she was interesting, but she got on my nerves!! When she started going on about how it's because of HER that Ash is there, and because of HER Ash and Meghan are together I wanted to say to her:

"Humperdink, Humperdink, Humperdink!

Lockhart is hilarious and annoying all at the same time!

And I just love Magnus because of how funny and adorable he is!!!


message 14: by Kristi (new)

Kristi (derek1) | 46 comments I'd have to say a very unforgetttable character is this crazy vampire scientist named Mrynin. He wears vampire bunny slippers and he just will always be in my mind because of how he acts throughoutt he series and its unclear whether to trust him or not....



I also won't forget Eve Rossser, the demented Goth. Shes a good character to find a personality.


Last but not least, Claire Davers. She is a role model for girls at any age but especialy in your teenage years. She proves that its alright to be smart and to not care what others think of you.


((these are all from the Morganville Vampires series by Richelle Mead <3...

*Not reccomended for anyone under 12 due to language, some rude humor, and some intense scenes that arent really written but still.* ))

I have not read the Morganville Vampire series but the characters do sound really interesting and unusual in them...a vampire scientist with vampire bunny slipers...mmm! Xx"


and also Rimpy:



I have read them like twenty times and the new one is coming out soon!!!! (does excited happy dance). There is quite a bit of language and intense scenes that arent oo graphic but still..... best to be about.... 12 or 13 before you read them to anyone who is younger and reading my post on it.
