Lady Macbeth, Macbeth (William Shakespeare)
Duncan, Macbeth (William Shakespeare)
Clover, Animal Farm (George Orwell)
Dracula (Bram Stoker)
Atticus Finch, To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee)


I'd have opted also for Shylock, Merchant of Venice (Shakespeare) if it had been an option - over Duncan in Macbeth.. :(
