Who are your favorite children in science fiction and fantasy?

Mine would have to include Miles Vorkosigan from Bujold, the kids from Narnia , and the Stark children, Jon Snow, and Queen Dany from Martin's ASOIAF.

Maybe those little imps, Feyd and Rabban. Oh, they do try one's patience, don't they?! Stop wiping out entire civiliztions, you scoundrels!! ____________

I also like the Weasley kids (other than Percy) from Harry Potter. The twins are especially fun! Our lives are the songs that sing the universe into existence.~David Zindell

Beast Rabban, Fist?! Further up, and further in!


"Come to Elfhand," the troll said.
The child thought for a while....
"N-no" said the child
"Why not?" said the troll.
"Mother made a jam roll this morning," said the child.

Well if he is talking about Harkonens then I nominate the children of Dune themselves, Leto & Ghanima Atredies--Alia was cooler tho--she was such a nasty moody brat!
And now Danlo looked in that direction, too. He remembered that snowy owls mate in the darkest part of deep winter, and so along with this beautiful white bird perched in a tree a hundred feet away, he turned to face the sea as he watched and waited.

The kids from A Wrinkle in Time were pretty cool.

And yeah, Alia was great. So was Paul, for that matter. ____________

Geeze HD it's almost time 2 make u a Master Pilot! We haven't had a new one in a looong time! (Paul was a little 2 old I think...) And now Danlo looked in that direction, too. He remembered that snowy owls mate in the darkest part of deep winter, and so along with this beautiful white bird perched in a tree a hundred feet away, he turned to face the sea as he watched and waited.

I liked Alia as a kid, but not as an adult! She killed Baron Vladimir Harkonnen, though he comes back to haunt her later

I liked Paul as a kid (and adult). Further up, and further in!
