Catherine Linton was once spontaneous and rowdy but ever since marrying the wealthy Edgar, she has morphed into a boiling pot of emotional outbursts. See them in Wuthering Heights.
When the going gets tough, Dre Johnson gets tougher. Well, he'd like to think he does. See them in Blackish.
Klaus Hargreeves is funny, flirty, and high at any given moment, but he's also the most emotionally literate of his super-powered siblings. See them in The Umbrella Academy.
Polite and clever, Annie James is not afraid to stir up a little mischief. See them in The Parent Trap.
The ever-cheerful Tonks can change her appearance at will, but she can't seem to get rid of her clumsiness. See them in Harry Potter Series.
Aslan represents everything good and just, he's just not super reliable. See them in The Chronicles of Narnia.
A deadbeat dad and small-time con-artist, Frank Gallagher gives nothing and yet expects everything. See them in Shameless.
A Wakandan spy, Nakia is capable, caring, and just the right amount of stubborn. See them in Marvel Cinematic Universe.
It’s a shame that the Seven Kingdoms doesn’t allow a woman to rule. The scheming, focused Cersei Lannister would do a far better job than either of her sons. See them in Game of Thrones.
