I just realized that her dress flaring up (in opposite directions) makes no damn sense when she has metal armor laying over it.

Immoral. There is no true justice in the world and to root for someone that believes so is like rooting for a retard to paint your house.

The more fucking interesting one. They can both be boring paper-thin personalities and they can both be interesting creative characters.

Yeah, this.

The evil one. I like seeing evil win since I grew up on disney films and got tired of good prevailing on the power of love and friendship.

I like my protagonists well-written. Then - sympathetic or simply allowing me to empathize. Everything else is tertiary to that.

I like stories in which there is no good or evil, just shades of grey. Then I can root for whichever character is the best developed without feeling guilty about it.

>> No.1449651

A moral one, I want my protagonist to be highly religious and to destroy evil with zeal, working restlessly rooting out and purging the world of heretics (aka anyone against his religion).

Heresy is like a tree, its roots lie in the darkness whilst its leaves wave in the sun and to those who suspect nought, it has an attractive and pleasing appearance. Truly, you can prune away its branches, or even cut the tree to the ground, but it will grow up again ever the stronger and ever more comely. Yet all awhile the root grows thick and black, gnawing at the bitter soil, drawing its nourishment from the darkness, and growing even greater and more deeply entrenched. Such is the nature of heresy, and this is why it is so hard to destroy, for it must be eradicated leaf, branch, trunk and root. It must be exorcised utterly or it will return all the stronger, time and time again, until it is too great to destroy. Then we are doomed.
