Thank you Barrow wight. Well let us tie this back to Tolkien. Discussing Villians and the concepts that were thought of, how do the villian that existed in Middle earth compare to what your preception of a villian?

Tolkien's villians in comparison to my views do not fit well. Well anything of Saruman and Sauron and Morgoth is evil. Well even using the term evil to discribe the adversary contradicts my views in fantasy writing. However at the same time, in the Silmarillion the advsaries are view much different, more like the greek and roman gods who were definenatly good or evil at any give time. Morgoth is the exception.
