Easy enough, no?

Tell us who's the best non-human character in a Sierra adventure!

PS: I selected the first ones that popped right into my mind, but I leave it open for you guys with an 'Other' option ;)

I voted Boogle! He's cute! And I was really sad when he got kidnapped and he didn't really come back as character after that.

Boogle popped into my mind before I even clicked the link. :)

Rakeesh would come in a close second. Then I'll throw Cedric an honorable mention in third for his role in helping Graham spot different types of snakes.

You really are missing a lot, though. Space Quest has tons of non-human characters to pick from.

That's why I left an 'Other' option opened ;)

Anyway, my vote went to Rakeesh but Boogle is a really close second. I adored him, but Rakeesh was just so powerful and his attack in QfG5 really cut my breath...

Heh, when I first saw this thread, I thought the poll would be for non-human player characters, like Lockjaw from Pepper's Adventures in Time, and pretty much all the characters from the Goblins series. Compared to non-human non-player characters, there certainly aren't that many.

I also voted for Boogle (who incidentally, is the only controllable character on this list).

I'm gonna be in a minority here but I'm going to pick kattas. I just can't not pick the kattas. ;) Gotta love 'em.

At a close second, I gotta pick the green goons from Katrina's castle (QfG4), followed very closely by Toby, whose ultimate fate made me cry. :(

The cat was the best non-human character? As in the best at making you want to throw your monitor out the window? :D
