My favorite is Quentin, for example. I just love their design so much.
I also love Jaxon and Ian, their storyline events put me through a ton of emotions I didn't even know I needed.

Jaxon and Ian, for sure! But also, not least, Lukien from the Apothecary and L'Amour from the candy heart shop
I think my favorite NPC is Sarah, because she's so generous to poor and new users in memory of her sister, Amy. RIP Amy 2007-2009, hashtag neverforget
I would, however, like to say that I greatly appreciate the redraw that the NPCs have had because some of the old art is wild.
The wizard cause of his pet dog!!
GOLLUM IS THE BEST THERE IS. Really, I love Nico, Liz, and Manwar. My favorite lil trio of pals.
Cinthia because she is freaking adorable ^-^
Blake, Quentin, Laure, Elwood & Lukien! :D
Sarah because she's friendly, and she was the first NPC I "met" since she helps out new users.
Quentin because they're also friendly (even if they don't always give out the best prizes). And I like their taste in fashion.
The Wizard because of his silliness, especially during the ongoing story last year where he accidentally brought various foods to life.
Even though I wasn't there for the 2009 plot, I liked that the Pirates were actually trying to protect Amy (too bad they failed and I never got to know her). And also they seem like a family to me, travelling the sea together.
Esther is also really nice, and even though I don't remember a lot of the 2014 plot, I like that Tempest turned out to be friendly and just misunderstood.
The 2018 plot made me more attached to Ian, I was really worried when he got hurt (I'm glad the Wurlm was brought back as an event challenger so I could get revenge), and also he looks a bit intimidating but then you look at some of his combos...
I don't know much about Nico and Liz since they're not really featured a lot, but I like that they're Asexual (though I might be biased cause I'm ace myself).
Blake has also grown on me a bit because of his adventures this year. I'd probably like him more if I'd been there for the 2011 plot. His different outfits and the posts about his encounters with the pets are amusing, and it seems that even if he is a bit silly, he knows a lot about travelling to the various places if his loot is anything to go by.
