Also, the Bishop of Southwark, the Mercies, and the Masters in general, particularly Mr Pages. (The Definiculate Dictionary *has* to be an in-game item at some point.)
Also the Hundreds and the Bazaar itself, for certain definitions of 'favorite' and 'character'.
Let's see. The Quiet Deviless is certainly intriguing--I understand your interest in her.
My favorites include: The Regretful Soldier; The Barbed Wit; The Melancholy Curate (remember him? Ah, that was so long ago!); and The Sardonic Music Hall Singer.

Interesting choices also.
But you've reminded me that minor characters should not be overlooked. I love the rat companions of the Relickers, every last one of them; Montgomery, Pinnock, Mathilde, and Gulliver. They seem to be much more interesting, competent people than the humans with whom they are associated (though we don't necessarily know what those humans were like before they became Relickers, either).

I hope at the end I can make the widow rule london, along with the Dutchess. The Queen can rot in the stolen river.

The Widow and the Duchess ruling together? Charming, but unlikely, I'd say.

The Bishop of St Fiacre's. Without a doubt my favourite character from the get-go, and his portrait is spot-on. He's often sinister, mysterious, ambitious, yet strangely benevolent at the most surprising of times. Even without the content of Flint, he's an intriguing character.
The Topsy King struck a chord after playing Heart's Desire. When he speaks to you on the rooftops, in a rare lucid moment...tear-inducing...

I'm most attached to the rats in the Secret of the Plaster Face storyline - something about the combination of the Albino Rat, the Working Rat and the Talkative Rat solving the mystery with me under the leadership of the Disgraced Bandit-Chief made me incredibly invested in this little tribe in my house.

Hello topic back from the dead!
But I'm definitely with Kirr and the Rats, particularly my Disgraced Bandit-Chief. I didn't want him to take that final step, but thought he needed to for his, errr, character development. I was so very happy when I got lucky and he was Redeemed.
My other favorite is probably the poor Topsy King. I wish I hadn't selfishly kept the Court cycle spinning until I was ready to leave it, because I really should have left on that high note. (oh a pun!)

Favorite...hm...Even given what I've learned of her, I still have a soft spot for the Gracious Widow. Her understated manner and insistence on shadowy dealings I find delightful. Beside her, I always enjoy a lively discourse with Mr. Pages. The cromulent expressivitudes he pontificates never fail to enliven. Easily my favorite of the Masters. Speaking in broader terms, I almost always enjoy interactions with Urchins and cats. No particular one there, but an appearance of a representative of either of those is almost always welcome.

My favorite character is His Amused Lordship who despite the state of London remains cheery (Just why is he so cheery). Next would be the dauntless Urchins. My third, my quirky rat companions.

My favorite characters are:
1. The Bishop of Southwark - I really like his passion (and wrestling skills). That revelation last Hallowmass just endeared him more to me.
2. The Soft-Hearted Widow - probably one of the more magnanimous people here in London. Pyro makes it a priority to give her glim at every opportunity
3. Mr. Pages - I know their allegiance and plans for London but they're just so adorably nerdy.

I have a strange fondness for Mr Pages-Sacks. Betraying him was the most complex mix of gleeful amusement and shame-faced regret I've experienced in the game.

I really love the Relickers and their rats. The Capering Relicker is funny, and I just want to hug the Shivering Relicker.
I also love Mr. Pages (like everyone else), and Mr. Irons. The Masters, in general, are fun.

Lots of good characters but my favorite would have to be Tristram Bagely, giving him his brief moment of lucidity and speaking to him after completing his unfinished opera was definitely the height of the heart's desire ambition to me.
The rat companions collectively and His Amused Lordship definitely deserve an honorable mention though.

Well, let's see. There's Lilac, but that may be an affectation, as her aloofness and demeanor mirror that of some people I actually know somewhat intimately offline.
His Amused Lordship is the most pleasant person I've had the fortune to meet in London, and with the added bonus of introducing me to a secret society of explorers, I couldn't possibly leave him out.
I'm not sure I know enough about either of them, but the Last Constable and the Veteran Privy Counsellor both intrigue me and I await the day their stories shall conclude, as all stories must.
And, lastly, Miriam Plenty.

I'm actually a big fan of the Cheery Man, although I have no idea why.
After him I, like most people seem to, like the Bishop of Southwark, the Sardonic Music Hall Singer and the Wry Functionary.
I've grown to love the Inconvenient Aunt, especially after almost losing her twice in my character's run.
As for one off characters, I quite like the Utterperson and the Elusive Poet, because apparently I have a thing for mushroom people.

I like the pets/companions in general and I laugh every time I read the text when you get the Bat with Attitude.
Among the other characters, let see... So far, I liked the Last Constable, the Silk-Clad Expert was delightfully bizarre, I was intrigued by the Ragged Mendicant and I have warm feelings for the urchin that lives on my rooftop (the one we have to discover his parents for him). Poor thing. I'm also curious about His Amused Lordship and the other members of the Dilmun Club. I still have so much to discover in this city, let's see who else I'll find.

Yes, the first time the Bishop tore off his frock and demanded I wrestle him, I both laughed harder than I think I ever had before while playing, and knew I had made a friend for life.

I am quite fond of the Bishop of Southwick, too true. I also share his dislike of snakes -- though he's far too mild in his treatment of them in my opinion, far, far, too mild...
