1. Anora - All she wants is more power. Unfortunately, all she's good for is licking lampposts.
2. Isolde - Tea Gaaaaan
3. Cullen - YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY'VE BECOME!
Loghain used to be on this list...but at least you can let him be a man(for once) and he takes his execution without complaint. Cauthrien...well, it's not fair to blame a retard for being retarded.
I would add Arl Howe to the list, his insolence was remarkable indeed, made me feel a bit sorry he's dead already, since I wanted to kill him again. But hey, that's what "replayability" stands for!
I always thought there should have been more to his death, such as throwing his broken body around the room into things or maybe ramming his head through a door, then after the 20 minute cutscene you slit his throat, cut off his head and use his skull as a drinking goblet while standing over his dead family.
I consider making his skull a drinking goblet too much of an honor for him. Using him as a battering ram is a nice idea however. This way Alistair will probably agree too (at least it worked having Shale join, heh).

I never understood the Howe hate until I did the Human Noble origin.
But still... it's Tim Curry!
Tim Curry pulled off Howe perfectly. Just shows how talented that guy is.

I would've settled for making Howe watch as his wife and children are slowly tortured to death
He would probably be saying things like;
As his wife is tortured* "Hahaha take that you ****!" "you never screamed that much with me.." "Oh, good technique <charname> i used that myself when torturing your father.."
As his sons are tortured* "Thats for missing fathers day!" "Orin squelled the same way" "take your time, <charname> its not like i am going anywhere.."

Howe himself is walking human garbage however, completely irredeemable, but at least he's written and played that way unlike some other jumped up characters who are in some ways worse but you're actually supposed to sympathise with the weasels *cough*Anora*cough*

Naw Howe's own family seems to be the one thing he actually cares about, which is why I'd take extra pleasure in ruining it for him like he did mine, REVENGE!!

2. Anora. She's a ****, no sugarcoating it.
3. Isolde. Annoying accent, her shenanigans is what caused the whole Redcliffe thing. She didn't seem too sorry about being such a screw-up.
4. Marjoline. Her accent was annoying too, but she's so... paranoid.
5. Goldanna. WAAAAH, MY LIFE SUCKS. GIVE ME MONEY. Now get out. Stab stab wasn't an option unfortunately.
6. I think I hate most of the chicks in this game. Wynne isn't bad tho. I like Wynne. When she isn't lecturing me for drowning puppies or burning small children.

Then I played the Human Noble...nothing but pure hatred for Arl Howe...I chose to save Loghain and let him take the last blow on the archdemon. I had several interesting conversations with Loghain and found he was really just misguided...he thought he was doing the right thing. I felt sorry for him in a way. I chose the dialog path to kill Arl Howe and his wife and daughter.
I'm now playing at a city elf rogue stealing/burglar spec and have a whole new hatred for Vaughn, Lady Sophia...
I kill The Dalish Keeper every time and save both the elves and werewolves, I also kill Uldred. Can't stand Uldred for any length of time.
I also started a Dwarf Noble story and have a new found hatred toward Bhalen, brotherly love my ****, that little pr!ck will die some how.
Bioware you did a good job on character development. Excellent in some cases.

For DA...probably Howe or Greigor. First playthrough was a mage so first impressions I got off Greigor was he's a jerk, same with Howe

But I might not have much against kicking Howe a couple of times while he's down.

Nah...maybe if you could hire a couple Qunari thugs to make love to Howe and his family for the next 10 years or so. From the dialogue between Sten and Morrigan, I'd say that'd be pretty fitting...
I wonder if Howe screams like a little girl. xD
To be honest though, while I find Howe despicable I don't feel any seething distaste for him. He was always intended to be a villain...It's similar to the way I appreciate the likes of Irenicus, Sarevok...the Joker...Howe wasn't hardly developed as well as them, but Tim Curry did a fantastic job.

Isolde also needs a good kick in the pants as far as I'm concerned.

She's probably a demon between the sheets too.

2) Anora - I liked Anora until she sold me out seconds after going through the effort of rescuing her. I can see how this was just an impulsive means to save her own skin to take the throne later on, and maybe she was confidant that I'd break out anyway, but my character had gone through enough betrayel at that point. Let's show some support for once.
3) Alistair - I can totally understand where he was coming from in his refusal to have any part in being the King. I'd never want that position either, but come on - the fate of your kingdom and your order is at stake! At least pretend to take the responsibility knowing that you'll have a half dozen people holding your hand the entire time. I loved him until he started QQing, but after that anywhere I took him I was afraid he'd turn into Carth Onassi and chew my ear off.
4) Loghain - I hate him for everything he put me through, but I love him because I saw eye-to-eye with him on almost every issue. The option of sparing him has always been difficult.
5) Zev - I'm happy he betrayed me in the end. Killing him ruled.
6) Morrigan - I'm glad she is content with the PC using her for sex, since that's all she is really good for.

Alas, later when I return, even though he clearly still has feelings for my female mage, he flips his lid and goes anti-mage over the whole circle thing. I think he's funny in the Origin, but later I want to gag him and leave him in the cabinet with the hiding mage. Never really feel like killing him though.

2) Arl Howe - the kind of butt kissing 2 faced bastard you gotta hate. And again, I took pleasure in killing him.
3) Loghain - the man demands respect, but he thinks he's right all the time. Also put me through too much.

* Isolde. TEEEEGEAAN. Enough said.
* Howe. So smarmy, so evil.
* Loghain. Nice voice, but totally insane.
* Ser Cauthrien. Needs to get a clue; just a hint, your commanding officer has gone 100% off the rails, it'd be nice if you noticed that, thanks.
OMG just remembered Isolde.
When she came screaming for TEEEEGAAN , glasses and windows shattered.

Honestly, though, I HATE Wynne. She's just, so.... bossy and opinionated. "Here's what I think we should do." "Okay, Wynne, thanks for letting me know how you feel." "What? Aren't you going to do what I told you to? You aren't!? *DISAPPROVE*"
