Has to be Rand. I like his story of having to bear the crushing weight of being this saviour figure and him struggling to meet the challenges facing him. As well as seeing the evolution of the character and he is pretty badass as well.

 

I would have said Nynaeve, but, she doesn't get that many POVs and because she very rarely gets a chance to properly fight for the series I've read I can't really consider her a true favourite. Best female character though. I would say I prefer Nynaeve as a person to Rand though.

 

Moiraine and Lan are also really good characters although they aren't really in the books enough.

You are right. Especially for Nyn, She is one of my two favorite female characters and definitely has the most exiting story of all WOT women. I wish she had more POVs too. The reason many important, interesting characters have so many little POVs is because it's really big cast and the author can't give them all the proper amount of it. I guess it would be harder to follow if he did. . 

I have many favorites. I just can't pick one. Rand is the heart of the tale, so i voted for him, but there is so much more. 

The ones i love absolutely and the most are:

Men: Rand, Mat, Perrin, Lan and Loial ( the cutest and one of the funniest characters)

Women: Without a doubt Egwene Al-Vere and Nynaeve Al-Meara. Their characters are really moving and most complex of the female ones. :)

The second place goes to Moiraine, Aviendha and Elayne :)

It's hard not to love the WOT characters. Every one of them, good or bad, is unique and the series wouldn't be the same if even one of them was left out.

For most interesting forsaken i chose Ishamael and Lanfear. I have always madly enjoyed well-written, dark and intricate villains. :)

I adore Egwene and i think that people who trash her just don't have anything better to do. I also dislike some of the WOT characters but i never insult them because i don't want to offend their fans.

Egwene in ubelievable! She is one of the brightest women in the books. She is my favourate along with Nynaeve, Elayne, Moiraine and Aviendha. Egwene is a leader. I love her because she's beautiful, smart and ambitious, but goodhearted too. I admit she has negatives, but most of the characters have. And besides when i put myself in her shoes i really can fathom why she did some of the mistakes she did.
