I must stand up for my fellow red-head. Maedhros was neither stupid, pathetic nor bad. He was an Elven prince and I doubt that stupid could be applied to any Elven prince though there were a few that struggled with wisdom, a completely different concept. Pathetic? Not even close. Bad? He had a good heart that was torn in two by the awful Oath he took in his youth. <img src=frown.gif ALT=""> Of all the sons of Feanor, Maedhros is described as the most gentle. He alone stood aside at the burning of Losgar.

What I really can't believe is the company you grouped him with! Maedhros does not belong in a list with Saruman, Sauron, Maeglin, Wormtongue, Morgoth and Balrogs!! Not by a long shot! Are you sure you know who Maedhros is????
