  is it better to copyright individual characters that appear in my stories or should I just copyright the book/volume that the character appears in?

  Nonlawyerly thoughts. ^_^
  
  In the US, once something is created in fixed form, it's copyrighted without you needing to do anything.
  
  If you're referring to registering copyright, you can't register your characters per se- you'd need to register a drawing of your characters, or something else in tangible form. It would probably be easier to register the volume.

  Thanks a lot, cjovalle. That question was really bugging for some time now.
