Daenerys Targaryen, from A Song of Ice and Fire (by George R. R. Martin):

There came a second crack, loud and sharp as thunder, and the smoke stirred and whirled around her and the pyre shifted, the logs exploding as the fire touched their secret hearts. She heard the screams of frightened horses, and the voices of the Dothraki raised in shouts of fear and terror, and Ser Jorah calling her name and cursing. No, she wanted to shout to him, no, my good knight, do not fear for me. The fire is mine. I am Daenerys Stormborn, daughter of dragons, bride of dragons, mother of dragons, don’t you see? Don’t you see? —With a belch of flame and smoke that reached thirty feet into the sky, the pyre collapsed and came down around her. Unafraid, Dany stepped forward into the firestorm, calling to her children.

feels like if I was a Terry Pratchett character I’d be one of the ones with the weird speech mannerisms who moves jerkily like a puppet on elastic strings

We like to think we are Weatherwaxes or Vimeses, when really we are mostly Nobbys or Magrats.

It’s a testament to Pratchett that almost no one thinks they’re Vetinari. Sure, we think highly of ourselves, but some ideas are just ridiculous.

even in his books, the people that think they are Vetinari are ridiculous; we don’t even know how Vetinari feels about being Vetinari.
