My favorite characters are Pippin, Faramir and Boromir.
I like Faramir and Boromir because, to my eyes, they are rather sad characters. When Boromir died I was very upset. He was not a bad man, I really liked his character (*so* not dull!) Faramir has gone through so many hardships, his brother, father and mother dying, but then he gets Eowyn so he has a rather more happy ending. I think the story of Boromir is quite tragic.
And I like Pippin because he is light hearted and can extract humor from any situation. I don't think he's stupid at all, he is actually pretty intelligent. A little foolish some times, but it's just because he's young. Not stupid though.
