Man, this is a hard one, haha.
There are a lot of people I really /like/ that I guess don't make the absolute top cut, haha. For example, I love Caleb, Tao, Rhot, and Tank, and if someone hurt them they'd better be /really/ good runners. Nevermind, say, Rose or Othra, who I'm not interested in romantically but would definitely get a similar reaction if someone were to attack her.
But between Korg, Bernard, Logan, Roushk, and Scrap it's... really hard to pick, haha.
And typing this reminds me that Ste should be in the first group, adn Feliar is definitely up there somewhere, and gahhh.
This game has such fantastic characters :D
