At the risk of sounding like a Monty Python Yorkshireman, the closest my current WiP has to a "main character" has been dead for the last 130,000 words (about a third of the story as a whole) and is not liking it very much.
Being dead comes with nigh-omniscience but also a serious tendency to OCD; the key descriptive line here is "Yes, if I liked, I could indeed watch every sparrow's fall, but I have no desire to spend the next thousand years as a sparrow specialist."
