What is your favorite character in literature?

Cait: What is your favorite character in literature?
I’m doing a writing project and need to know what your favorite character is in literature. Thanks so much for your input.
I would prefer if they weren’t from recent books (anything after the 80s)
I would also prefer that it were a book that I have at least heard of. I don’t know who half of these characters are.
