Diane Zhivago Mikhale is one of my favorite characters; he's fun-loving, cocky in a somewhat goofy kind of way, and just an all-around-feel-good character. He doesn't take life too seriously, but when he finally opens his heart to Thoryn he loves her with all of his might. He's a heart of pure gold wrapped up in a tough-guy bod who also happens to be drop-dead-gorgeous...who wouldn't love him?
