I don;t really have many memorable dream characters, but there were two in this one dream (part of the Silent Hill World series of dreams that I mayhave mentioned in my dream journal). One of them was a female museum curator/librarian/thrift store owner (whatever the place was), and the odd thing about her was that she was so much more sentient than any of my other DCs, aside from the other who I had just met: A skinhead sage who I accused of being involved with pawning my stolen bike. He was perfectly calm the entire time, held me back from attacking him with one arm (skinny dude, but didn;t even break a sweat), and waited for me to exhaust myself tryign to fight him, which was mere seconds, and hadn;t happened before even in, say, ninja training dream, or running for my life dreams. He had earlier pointed me to the building with the other sentient DC, and now he said nothing but a cryptic message. "Chexck the wire. Everything ends up there... Eventually." No bike, but the wire (with creatures on that were part of a longer seies of events) led me to soem sort of evil, stronger than the minor wicked/mischevious characters I had occasionally met before. Woke up feeling like a heart attack, haven;t had one of those dreams since. THe thing that srtuck me was how other DCs always had a sort of two-dimensional quality whenever I thought about them later. There was the occasional character who seemed more real than the others, like the librarian/curator or the mischiefmakers, but they always seemed to be a facade worn by a character who in turn was projecting their own rality. This guy was the only one I;ve found so far who seemed completely real long after waking up (aside from whatever the hell was ptrojecting the evil, but I never actually met it).
Edit: Plus a nutcracker-style rat king in a tin soldier outfit, who had previously been disguised as a very realistic camel. I've only once had a nightmare about him since moving from my old house when I was five, and it;s hard to think of it as a dream character more than an integral feature of the recurring dream/nightmare. He wasn;t very realistic, he was rather "blurred," but very memorable.
