Types of Characters You Love

Bullies, because when they're not just two-dimensional assholes they're incredibly complex and interesting characters. I find it fascinating to read a story from the perspective of a bully because I tend to sympathise with the bullied, as a rule, and it's nice to have that turned on its head every once in a while.

Also, I really love those characters who look like stereotypical bullies so everyone treats them like they are, when in actual fact they have a heart of gold and would never hurt a fly. :/

Seriously dynamic characters. When they start out and you're like and then by the end you're like

I kinda like those arrogant, cocky boys that the main girl hates at first but then falls in love with later. Kind of stereotypical, but yeah.

I like the characters with dark personalities. Some of them can be really great when the user doesn't try to hard to develop them or base them off of a stereotype.

Characters that are slightly off-kilter/boarderline insane.

Sadists.
Just...unf.
Especially the ones with the dark personalities.
Oh and when they rarely speak.
Favorite.

Strong and independent female characters.

Well written police officers/special agents. Also, I'm a bit of a fan of arrogant and cocky men as well. I don't even know why.

Snarky sidekick types. Especially if they undergo lots of character growth.

Male characters in their 20s that have little hobbies or certain things they do that, if anyone else found out about they'd get laughed at.
Like, collecting toy trains or stamps..or something.
I find it so adorable.

Gay guys who still act like guys. Like, you wouldn't even suspect they're gay until it said, "...and then he kissed his boyfriend on the cheek," or something.

Arrogant genius types who constantly remind people of their intelligence and superiority, but have a heart of gold underneath.

I love....
Characters that are complicated and mentally unstable.
Characters that are mysterious and elusive.
Characters that are quick-witted.
Characters that are extremely loyal and will go out of their way to help out a friend.

Characters that are as dumb as a sack of potatoes, but they're such amazing and adorable individuals that you can't help but fall in love with them.

I like well-written guys that seem dark but have a soft side to the girl they have feelings for whatever.

As far as female characters, I like the ones with a well-off job and a decent life. I don't know, maybe I'll elaborate more when I'm not tired at 12:30 am. Haha

Okay, I'm back. Like I said before, I like the guys that seem to be all tough and then change into a big teddy bear when they're with their girl.

Female characters; I like the ones that look realistic (when the author does include a character picture), instead of like, a well-known celebrity like Megan Fox or something. Average people don't really look like that. I like the ones that have a nice personality, like someone I could actually be friends with in real life. The smart ones. The independent ones.

And occasionally, the ones with a secret or two. And there's a few characters I've liked that have a medical issue or something.

Characters who see themselves one way, but they come off in a completely different way to other characters.

Characters that actually go through arcs.

Characters that are larger than life, but still believable.

I like characters that are sadistic. I also like characters that are sarcastic and funny.

Characters that have nicknames, especially when those nicknames have an interesting backstory behind them.

Granted, it does get annoying when every character in a story has an odd nickname or pet name, but I know that I personally know like, five people whose real names I don't know because I've only ever known them by their nicknames
