I don't really hate any factions, but if I had to choose one I would pick Clan Wolf/Wolf-in-Exile. My favorite Clan Wolf character would probably be Vlad Ward for being completely dedicated to his Clan. Not that other characters are not dedicated, he is just my favorite. As for Wolf-in-Exile, Evantha Fetladral for being a bad-ass Elemental chick with a sense of humor. [rockon]

Shin Yodama.  As hypercompetent sidekicks go, he's actually pretty well-rounded.

O0 Ditto for Evantha.  Wish she had more novel time.  We do know (well, at least, it's implied) one of her offspring becomes Wolf-in-Exile Khan.

I know Wolf Lancer 4 doesn't like the Jade Falcons, but I think he loves Quinn Kerensky.

From the Blood of Kerensky series... That little bugger Sun-Tzu from Laio-land! That's the bad guy I love to hate!

I really wish someone would have let Kai whoop up on him during their outreach training a lot more than he actually did or at least let Victor pop him one for all his mouthy BS.

Kuan Yin Allard-Liao since she was always about but never seen. I remember first reading about her in the Blood of Kerensky series and yes, she did not say much(or anything if I recall) but she did "calm down" the Crazy Kali during one particular scene. Also, she didn't cry about not being as good a mechwarrior as Kai (like Cassandra) or having a bigger role in government. She simply did what needed to be done when it needed doing and often times with perfect results. And...now... she is part of the bloody CapCon. (Yet another reason why I can't stand them since I always thought that the Allard-Liao's deserved a better fate then what most of them got.)

I found it rather incomprehensible that all the Allard-Laios apparently stayed on St Ives to allow themselves to be taken prisoner by Sun-Tsu and be used as leverage against Kai rather than flee to Arc Royal or some other friendly territory.

Liao: Danai Liao Centrella of the dark age timeline is an interesting and well rounded character. the novel that was pretty much her story of recovery from being sexually assaulted was one of the best Battletech books yet.

Terran Hegemony: Aleksandr Kerensky - One cannot help but admire the man who conquered my beloved Rim Worlds Republic, the hated Terran Hegemony, and when he had the power to take over the Inner Sphere, he went on walkabout? WTH. Whether you agree with him or not, he had two, very large, cast iron balls.

Well, not being able to stand a faction is kind of an exaggeration eh eh...

But I'll go with the Suns' traditional enemies nonetheless :

Liao : Aris Sung. Humane and tough, and a fairly well written character. Candace too, though as she did some stints for the Suns, I feel she hardly qualifies  ;D

Kurita : Minobu Tetsuhara. 'nuff said... just reminds me I need to paint Katana Kat now I have laid my hands on a good old original sculpt Panther  ;)

This is an interesting thread...

Obviously the faction I hate most of all is the Fed-Suns.  But there's almost no one I like from it.  I suppose if one counts Kai Allard-Liao as one of them because he's joined at the hip with Lil' Victor, then Kai is my fav.  Otherwise I'll have to vote for Morgan, as he was the least offensive of a long line of utterly unlikable Federats.

Second faction of dislike is the Clans, so I'll toss my fav up as being a tie between Trent and Joanna.  I rooted for them whenever I read their stories.  Even if I can't stand the Clanners, they each had style.
