The RattLord

is ratt a beverage or are we doing glam metal puns now?

Hannover Fist and Cap'n Sternn:

I think ratt is German for beer or something.
No, it isn't. Rattskeller is a bar, but it means something else.
Barflord then.

Sherlock Holmes, Mr. Bush from C. S. Forester's Hornblower series, Aragorn from The Lord of the Rings, and Quentin Compson from Faulkner's Sound and the Fury. Holmes is the greatest fictional character of all time, in my humble opinion. Despite his near-superhuman abilities, he feels like a real person. He's so iconic that it's easy to forget that he isn't. Mr. Bush is just plain likable, and I remember thinking Aragorn was the coolest guy on Middle-earth when I read LotR for the first time. And I can identify with the tortured scholar who is Quentin Compson better than any other fictional character I've encountered.

The elves in general are my fav from LOTR. They are so awesome and mysterious, and just plain bitchin' in The Silmarillion.

happy to see that nobody put jabberjaw in their list

^ I agree.

Sherlock Holmes is amazing.

Sherlock Holmes is a cokehead. He has my support.
