I don't know the characters (or people) you named

Colum MacKenzie is a character in Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series. Lynda Day is the female protagonist of the old TV show Press Gang. Both are definitely Slytherins, and Colum at least is a good man. Lynda is a ruthless bitch, but in a way that makes you love her anyway.

what came to my mind was Cordelia, circa S2-S3 of "Angel," when she really began to turn her formidable ambition to the service of "the good fight."

Hmmm, that's interesting. I'd never thought of Cordelia as a Slytherin, but I suppose she could be. Not as late as s3, though - by then, she was pretty much just a wet blanket. But s1 or early s2, yeah, I could see that.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Colum McKenzie die in Dragonfly in Amber?

Ehehe. Reading Diana Gabaldon at a friend's recommendation, but her books are nonexistent in the romance sections around here. I got my copy of Dragonfly from a used bookstore.

The first three are pretty good. Then she seems to lose track of what she was doing and just makes up random scenes that don't really lead anywhere. I liked her Lord John book, though - it was a lot plottier than the latest two Claire&Jamie ones.
