I just finished reading The Fall of Reach, the book thats prequel to the first halo game. I knew he was badass...but Master Chief is far deeper and stronger than the game lets you know.

I was thinking about it, and the only other fictional character that runs in the same vein as him is Roland from the Dark Tower series. Both are the last of their kind, both are on a mission to save everything, and neither one is very imaginative. In addition they've both been trained from an early age in the art of war and each is in the peak physical/mental status they can be.

So now I wanna know, who do you think is the biggest badass motherfucker? I'll give two very brief descriptions. I'm not trying to do justice with them, just give background. I'm putting them in spoiler tags because I'm not sure if they're spoilers or not.

Roland of Gilead
+ Show Spoiler +
Roland is a gunslinger from the long dead kingdom of Gilead. He's searching for the Dark Tower, the nexus of time and space. He has two specially made guns with sandalwood grips. From an early age he was trained to be a gunslinger. He's not the most imaginative, nor is he the most perfect...but he's the last one still alive. He's the youngest person ever to achieve the status of gunslinger. He did so by defeating his trainer with a hawk. Roland has taken down entire armies (human and not), towns, and laid supposedly the hottest chick this side of kingdom come (in his world).


Master Chief
+ Show Spoiler +
Master Chief was taken when at the age of 6 from his home planet as part of the secret millitary SPARTAN project. He was brutally trained along with 150ish other children. When he was 6-7 years old, he led an operation to neutralize 6 millitary men armed with (I forgot the name) shock police batons. All he and his trainees had were rocks and surprise in the woods. He stole a dropship and got all of his fellow trainees back. The last person to enter the dropship was supposed to be left in the wilderness to die, so he made sure he went on last. He became squad leader. Later, in his teens, all the trainees underwent a risky surgery to physically augment them past what any normal human could be. Around half of the trainees didn't make it through the surgery. Soon after, he single-handedly killed 3 helljumpers with his bare hands. Master Chief wasn't the fastest, smartest, or strongest spartan. He was the most tenacious, bravest, and best. He's never gotten on anybody (his closest female friend is an AI).


This isn't Master Chief vs. Roland, that isn't a fair or applicable fight. I want to know who you think is a bigger BAMF. I'll let you know my personal opinion after the polls been going for a bit because I don't want to sway people who don't know both of the characters.

[edit: If there are other fictional characters you think belong in this poll, persuade me and write a little background spoiler for them.]

Kenshiro

Raven

Hiro Protagonist from Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash

"Last of the freelance hackers and Greatest swordfighter in the world".



or the character Raven from the same book.

"an Aleut harpoon master named Raven whose motorcycle's sidecar packs a nuke wired to go off should Raven ever be killed."

the guy has "POOR IMPULSE CONTROL" tattooed on his forehead.

"Until a man is twenty-five, he still thinks, every so often, that under the right circumstances he could be the baddest motherfucker in the world. If I moved to a martial-arts monastery in China and studied real hard for ten years. If my family was wiped out by Colombian drug dealers and I swore myself to revenge. If I got a fatal disease, had one year to live, and devoted it to wiping out street crime. If I just dropped out and devoted my life to being bad.
Hiro used to feel this way, too, but then he ran into Raven. In a way, this was liberating. He no longer has to worry about being the baddest motherfucker in the world. The position is taken."

A really big shark

This thread so fucking fails. Who gives a fuck if some protagonist of a shitty fps is more of a bad ass than some book hero.

Here's another stupid poll:

I know, he's not fictional... but you can't even write a fictional badass that badass, nobody would believe it.

Indeed, what a random two choices.

Having not liked Halo, and having enjoyed The Dark Tower series this one was an easy vote for me... With the exception that even Roland isn't --that-- badass considering some of the characters across all the books/games/movies i've witnessed.
