Combine some of them and do multiple!
For the favourite character Friday, all I have to say is
ELAYNE
ELAYNE TRAKAND
That's all, that's the post
Okay, no it's not, I can always talk about Elayne
The best scene in show is, we all agree, her singing in the tavern. But she just had so so so many amazing scenes left and that's why WoT needs to be saved!
But even in this short time, the show did great in showing how she would always go to bat for her friends, her sense of duty and justice, but also her funny and cheerful side, and how helpful and accepting and accommodating to other cultures she is.
I'm going into spoilers now
Her bath scene would absolutely need to be in the show! A lot of people don't like this scene, I've seen a lot of complaints along the lines of: "Why do we need to read the whole chapter about her in the bath?" And like, first of all, because that is so Elayne. But second, that's the point! She's fighting for her throne, she's an Aes Sedai, she's preparing for The Last Battle, she's hunting the Black Ajah, she's incorporating a new type of channelers into the world, she's pregnant!!! She doesn't have a moment to just take a bath, she keeps getting interrupted, and she manages to do it all 😌 👑
I love her bickering with Mat and her learning swear words from him sjsjsj. And I need the scene of Mat protecting Elayne in Rand's name and yelling 'You can't have her!!' to Gollam
Elayne and Nynaeve as a duo will always be iconic
Her and Birgitte! Give us Birgitte, I need to see her!
And of course her other Warder ❤️ I love love love Elayne and Rand together. One of my favourite moments in the books is her reaction when Rand tells her about LTT memories. Others' reactions to that ranged from thinking he's mad to 'we're just gonna ignore that'. But Elayne? She says 'Oh, that's so useful.' Rand is in love, I am in love (and of course I love the whole polycule of Elayne/Rand/Aviendha (and put Mat there instead of Min) but Rand and Elayne together are so special to me.)
The most romantic thing ever: Rand trying to channel to make feathers into flowers for her and failing, and Elayne keeping those feathers five books later because Rand wanted them to be flowers for her!!! It's okay, I'm fine. Also them having marathon sex all day and night and Rand leaving a lily on her pillow, which is her personal simbol!
Their meet-cute! It didn't make it into the show, but it will always be famous!
And don't even get me started on the possibility that Elayne is Ilyenna reincarnated. It makes me feral. I will just mention my pet theory that Ceara could play Ilyenna as well!
The Matlayne energy in ACoS is doing my head in. (Alongside Avilayne!!) They practically acted like the classic Robert Jordan romance, what do you mean they're not the canon polycule.

Mat tugged lightly at the marriage ribbon around his neck.
Strange to think of himself as a married man.
It wasn’t exactly following Two Rivers’ custom to hide the marriage ribbon underneath a scarf but marriage was about compromise, or at least that’s how Mat understood it. Officially, Rand was dead. The soldiers and nobles who’d guessed that Mat was sleeping with Rand would have been fairly surprised to see Mat marry some random man so soon after Rand’s death so… a secret marriage.
The official marriage that was happening today was between Aviendha and the tall Aiel warrior who was definitely not Rand in disguise, and with Elayne there to join Aviendha in marriage as her first-sister.
