Yes, I know, (It's when Zehir pulverized Markal to dust), but I didn't noticed the change in his voice. Probably the actor was angry when he heard that his character will die, so he left (Like Raelag, Tieru and Godric).

Heroes V campaign heroes weren't that interesting but Agrael and Wulfstan where nice thanks to good voices and cut scenes. From the opening video i expected Nikolai as key charter and not as an pawn. Godric was alright hero and i would damn right watch him over Isabel! Many say that Biara was unbearable (or they just hated her) I wished Biara would somehow kill Isabel but instead she killed the ol' flower sniffer!
Standard heroes are nice in game. Ossir & Deleb comes first mind when thinking heroes. Early Klaus and Vladimir too remember played whit them every time.

Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.

I think its tough to choose a favorite because there is so little time to develop any character. You just have a few cut scenes scattered throughout the campaigns (or in the case of minor characters, maybe just a single scenario.)
It is a lot harder to avoid archetypes and produce interesting characters given the constraints on time, so what makes an interesting character to me in that case is more on how what they do advances the story. Given that, I'd have to say that my favorite is Biara... she just had that habit of showing up in the worst possible places, and the theme of the corruptor in HoF was an interesting twist especially since the Griffin Empire was supposed to be the main bulwark against the demons.
As far as getting the most done with actual characterization, I think that would have to be Wulfstan because he is the character that strikes me least as an archetype... probably because of his problems with his brother.

That aside he's the typical not-so-subtle-mannered dwarf that is friendly and likes drinking and pushing his luck.

Well yes... he definitely has archetypical behavior. I'm afraid that is practically inevitable given that he's a typical nonhuman fantasy dwarf, and basically all the nonhuman races out of myth were by definition archetypes in the first place.
The thing that makes him stand out is that a good bit of the archetypical behavior seems to be at least partially bluster and as a cover for his feelings about basically being sold out, first by his brother then by his king. It is that vulnerability that pushes him into being beyond an archetype and fleshes him out.

Nice.
I'm gonna have to say that I really liked Biara, looking back. She was spunky. Evil, but spunky.

Plenty better than Isabel...I wonder when she will marry Duncan, they will be alot better couple than Nicolai and Isabel..unless Nival screws it up by doing the same to them as with who-you-know I alredy mentioned.

Naaah come on^^ Duncan totally goes for Shadya! Who would prefer a Goodietwoshoes Freyda over one badass sexy Shadya?? I sure wouldn't... This is kind of like the Leanna vs. Xana thing... And Xana is sooo much more sexy than Leana (as far as computermodels go ofcourse)

Shadya? Are you sure you haven't meant Ilaya?
Duncan and Shadya do not know each other.

I think it would be weird to have Two crossspecies pairings...I think it is Freyda/Duncan, Raelag/Isabelle or Raelag/Findan, Biara/Alaric.

Even seen Freyda naked? Didnt think so, but you did see Xana somewaht naked So how could we than judge which one of the would be best for Duncan? Looking away from Good and sexy or Evil and sexy...isnt it cute how obvious the choice is? Succubuses usaually kill their male victims in the end, you know While Freyda..umm execpt a high temper in crisis of war, I dont see her as a threat.

Zehir and Agrael.
Agrael because he is the only good and cool looking hero in the whole Inferno town. But there are alot more things l like him for, to bad he became an romantic carebear dark elf...
Zehir has humor, and... Zehir was one of the best heroes i developed in the campaign!
His Phoenix was really over power... 600+ damage and 1,5k health or maybe even more, i dont remeber.
But i did like Findan too ;P
To bad he died.
