You could compare Anakin and Denethor.

Both of them started out quite well, but they were both proud and fearful (Denethor grew more fearful as Sauron grew, of course).

They both listened to lies from the main Enemy of their time and ended up turning against those that were trying to help them (Anakin against Obi-Wan & Denethor against Gandalf).

In the end they both eventually came to see their life and its surroundings through the twisted lens of the very Enemy they had been committed to fighting against.
