Lol, Don Corneo's probably the best person to be, for obvious reasons.
I also find Cid someone to admire, for reasons stated earlier. For that, I find him a more interesting and believable character than the recalcitrant Yuffie or the mysterious Vincent xD
If I were to identify with a character, I'd have to go with Reeve, for exactly the same reasons that Squall of Seed mentioned earlier in the thread. He described it well, but that means I can't use any words myself to back up my opinion
Mind you, I can see where Teh Lavos is coming with the two soldiers remark, lol!
