Which classic literary character are you?

Post by BoSoxGal »

I'm Jane Eyre - no surprise as I have always thought so since first reading the book aged 12.

Edmond Dantes


You are intelligent and honest, but someone has wronged you and has made you into a vengeful and bitter person. You used to think of yourself as naive but the cruelty of the world has taught you to rule. You want justice for yourself and will go to great lengths to get it. However if you get too caught up in revenge you won't see that love is standing right in front of you!

Aslan

You are Aslan! You are the embodiment of all that is good and right in the world! Aslan is an allegorical representation of Jesus Christ. Whether or not you are religious you have strong morals and always try to do the right thing when necessary. You are an excellent leader and strong in the face of evil.
You are the embodiment of all that is good and right in the world!
Sometimes these things are so accurate it's spooky... :shock:

Indeed:
Elizabeth Bennett

You are Lizzie Bennett! One of the strongest females in literature, you stand by your opinions and you are fiercely independent. You have great loyalty towards your family and stand by their side no matter one. When you are in love you make sure not to lose your own personality, and you are very wise about who you trust.
One of my all-time favorite heroines!

Holden Caulfield. Don't ask.

You are Jay Gatsby! You come from meager beginnings but you have made quite a name for yourself, and you are not afraid to show off your success. You have a lot of perseverance towards reaching your goals, and sometimes you'll even go to any length to reach those goals even if it means doing something bad. You are also blindly in love and will do anything to be with that person.
I don't know about the 'doing something bad' part.

Yes, which is why he would be with the 67% of native Americans who find the mascot and team name combination terrifically insulting. 8-)

Holden Caulfield. That's all I'm going to tell about. I could probably tell you what I did after I went home, and how I got sick and all, and what school I'm supposed to go to next fall, after I get out of here, but I don't feel like it. I really don't. That stuff doesn't interest me too much right now.
