++Gandalf

He's iconic, whereas Turin is just another guy with a sword.

He has a great name with an Old Norse heritage, whereas Turin is named after some Italian city and you feel like a plonker just saying his wispy name out loud, but saying the rich, meaty word 'gandalf' makes you feel all robust and manly...even if you are not a man

He's an Odinic Wanderer and an enigma, whereas Turin likes to abandon people. And kill them.

He doesn't let you down, whereas Turin is like the Frank Spencer of Middle-earth.

He's a hippy, and he can blow really cool smoke-rings.
