Interesting question...my answer would be Faramir or Imrahil, from Dol Amroth, or Eomer of Rohan. If it were a 'Hobbit" question it would certainly be Thorin because he died well, and he is my favorite character overall.
I like the others because they were valiant and fair in their dealings and didn't drag along a ton of baggage and drama with them. You know? No sacred missions or destinies to be fullfilled, they just acted right and came to fight because that is what men are supposed to do.
