Default In all of the SF world, what character are you most like in real life?

As much as I wanted to think I was Kirk or Spock in my early years, I really wasn't. For a time in my late teens & early twenties I was surely Luke Skywalker, but in the end, today, Apollo really is who most closely resembles the person I am.
I tend to love film & TV SF, but let's include ALL SF here. What character REALLY resonates with YOU?

I would suppose if I wanted to be like any it would be Captain James T Kirk as played by William Shatner, or the attribute´s that make him what he is.

But I really cannot say I am like any, hard to be heroic when seated in front of a key board.

So I will stick with Captain Kirk.

i've always strongly identified with characters in Tanith Lees' SF books, especially Jane in Silver Metal Lover,

also Sarah Jane in Doctor Who

(its NOT just a Jane fetish, honest..)

of course who I'd like to be is another matter

Cheers,
Lara

I'd like to be James Kirk or Starbuck or Buck Rogers

but I fear I'm likely Reginald Barclay.

ha, well maybe not...sometimes it's a real social life killer.

I guess the original BSG equivalent might be Greenbean.

Again, a cool character! My friends used to joke that I was Kree, but no way was I that whiny.

Next to Broccoli...uh, Barclay, Greenbean was the very definition of suave!
