    Severus Snape from the Harry Potter series. I personally think he's the most intriguing character that I've ever read about, or maybe it's because I really took notice of him in the books after Alan Rickman's portrayal of Snape in the movies...but honestly, he's the reason I even bother to read the books anymore. Gah, and not to mention the fun I have with creating my own theories about him. He's like a rainbow, you want to follow through all the way to the end to get to the pot of gold.
