I absolutely loathe taimi, rytlock, braham, and mesmer barbie (aka kasmeer). Canach is ok; I really liked trahearne, tybalt, doern, malomedies: a lot of the characters from the personal story. I was really thrown off by missing ls1 and being suddenly introduced to so many new characters. I thought maybe they would grow on me over time, but the opposite has happened and I've come to hate them more and more. Even my own character's dialogue now often makes him seem like a jerk.
