Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Cordelia from King Lear

because she refuses to give in to petty appearance and stands up for real love :)

Falstaff
...because he reminds me of ME!!

Richard III....
a tyrant bound in a deformed body...sinister.

Hamlet, because he's very dimensional in a complex situation.

My favorite character is Mercutio from "Romeo and Juliet"
He's intelligent, charismatic and, ultimately tragic.
His Queen Mab speech is some of the best writing Shakespeare ever did.
D.

Rosalind - 'As You Like It' - she's so cute and resourceful.

Puck - Midsummer Night's Dream
funnest part I ever played!!! over animated, trouble maker!

Imogen from Cymbeline. She is wonderfully eloquent (much more so than his earlier women), very vibrant, he wrote her as well as he wrote his men.
