Actually both you and Ephemerous are quite pompous and haughty sounding.
The end is nigh

I usually identify with a character in most books I read and movies I watch, but here are the ones that stick out the most in my memory:
- Jo March* (Little Women)
- Eowyn (the Lord of the Rings trilogy)
- Ana Pascal* (Stranger than Fiction)
- Marguerite (L'Amant)
- Silvia (Le Jeu de l'Amour et du Hasard)
- Martine (L'Auberge Espangnole)
- Mathilde* (Ridicule)
*these are the ones I identify most strongly with.
I don't see much of a similarity in the characters apart from most being fairly independent and free thinking.

I can't think of anyone off the top of my head.
I said "Darcy" in the past but that's not applicable anymore.
I remember saying "Li Mu Bai" from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, before. And I suppose that's kind of true. In that culture, at that time, I could see myself like that.
But there is something missing. I've not seen a character that has both the drive and ferocity that I have combined with my take on spirituality, my world view, and other such things.
I've been looking, but I've given up really. I don't think there is anything is 'me' enough.
Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

Dude, Mario.
Just because Shigsy is Alpha, doesn't mean there isn't a Delta buried under the layers of cheery insanity and intense primary colours.
Another one. Maximillian in Pi.
...the human race will disappear. Other races will appear and disappear in turn. The sky will become icy and void, pierced by the feeble light of half-dead stars. Which will also disappear. Everything will disappear. And what human beings do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, feelings? Pure 'Victorian fictions'.

Heh, this is exactly how my Beta ST roommate views comparisons of characters. I attribute it to weak Ne: he misses the forest for the trees; when I compare him to other people or ficitonal characters, he blows the dissimilarities out of proportion. It's like he sees every detail about his personality as so significant that any fit that isn't perfect is irrelevant. Obviously the goal is to compare characteristics, which I try to explain to him, but he seems to think the process of comparing himself to other people is futile unless there is an unrealistically exact match.
One time I tried to compare the protagonist of one of his favorite shows, Lie to Me, to Dr. House: I showed him that they were both the distrustful, pessimistic specialist, the guy who has become so good at one thing that it colos his whole view of humanity, etc etc. The similarities are OBVIOUS to me, but when I said, "Come on, look at it: this guy IS House!" he just said, "No way, House is a doctor; this guy is in forensics...and he's not an addict or anything." "But they share that same archetype...(insert detailed explanation), you know?" "...No, they're not the same."
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...

I can't think of any fictional characters I strongly identify with. I don't think there are as many LII fictional characters as there are some other types. I'll ask you, which fictional character do you see me as resembling?

From Gu Long Novels and movies based on them like
Fu Hong Xue

Bordertown Wanderer = A Warrior's Tragedy (really bad)
Ah Fei
Sentimental Swordsman, Ruthless Sword = The Sentimental Swordsman
From Jin Yong novels
Yang Guo
Lin Huchong

A mix of Aramis and d'Artagnan
this question bothers me because I really can't think of any characters that I identify with

Riddick, chronicles of riddick.
Spike Spiegel, cowboy bebop...strongly identify with him the most.
Edward elric, fma.
Both the blonde that was murdered by nucky and The butcher from boardwalk empire.
Aizen, both of his personas, bleach.
Mugen, samurai champloo.
Some others can't think of right now.

Suzuha from Steins;Gate (to a T)
Gintoki from Gintama, though my stupidity is less blatant
Amu from Shugo Chara (yes, I watched some of that, I admit it) though less likable and less cheerful
Movie-verse Utena from Revolutionary Girl Utena (almost to a T)
I'd add Shane from The L Word if that wasn't such a cliche thing to say since it seems 9/10 lesbians feel the same. And I can't relate to the general sluttiness, but whatevs.
to a lesser extent
Reinhard from Legend of the Galactic Heroes
Ellen from the 90's sitcom featuring Ellen Morgan (Ellen DeGeneres)
But I generally find it hard to relate to most any fictional character, really. I can empathize and sympathize with many, but to really identify with is a stretch.
