1) What is your opinion of this character? If you like, explain why you like him/her. Likewise if you dislike the character.
In Twilight he didn't interest me, though I instantly thought "wow he is going to like Bella and shit is going to go down". In New Moon I liked him, but I wanted him to slap Bella silly for being such an emo bitch. In Eclipse I didn't like him as much as New Moon, because he was all... assholey, but he was hilarious and he's still better than Edward.
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
UM YA HES PART OF THE LOVE TRIANGLE OF DOOM!
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Do they grip you emotionally?
No one in Twilight gripped me emotionally. And.. no, I wouldn't say I can really relate to him. I'm not a werewolf or a guy or Native American (OMG JACOB/POCAHONTAS FTW) or even in unrequited love with anyone.
4) How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
The Twilight fandom is made of 50% fail, 40% lulz and 10% competence. I like the lulz? And I stalk the lj comms for said lulz.
5) Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by their relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
I think Bella should choose Jacob (LOL PRO-LIFE?!?!) but on the other hand she's a dumbass so her and Edward can be dumbasses together. I think if Meyer wants her novels to hvae ANY KIND OF OVERALL THEME AT ALL, though, she should go with Jacob/Bella. But she won't. I know. Also I think Jacob/Leah would totally happen for the hot unrequited angsty sex, and I wish there was more Jacob/Edward in the world just for the hilarity.
6) Is there anything about the character you would change?
Like I said, he was kind of a dick in Eclipse, but whatevs. Also, I don't really like Meyer's werewolf mythology -- it's more Hulk!wolf than anything, and I am so used to the normal myth, or at least Rowling's myth. And he would ditch that Bella bitch and go imprint on someone wicked-cool.
Except imprinting is made of fail.
7) If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how do you see yourself interacting with him/her? (Would you get along well? Fall in love with? Dislike? Friendly rivalry? etc etc)
I think we could be friends. At least I hope so, I am so much better than Bella, hahahaha. He seems like a COOL DUDE and he's funny so I'd like him. Funny people ftw.
8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
He's high up for the Twilight series, but not high up overall.
9) Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about (if you dislike) to someone whose new to the fandom?
Probably, in the sense that I'd be like "yeah he's totally better than Edward, ftw". But he was hyped up for me before I read the books and as a resultI was kind of underwhelmed.
10) Is this character popular with the fanbase?
Sorta. He has his fans but then there's the screaming Edward fangirls who are like OMG HE IS AN EVIL RAPIS I LUV VAMPIRES OMGOMGOMG.
