Aside from Morgoth, Sauron, and Saruman who are too obvious, I despise Ungoliant (any being who would suck in light and spew out darkness is hideous), Feanor (for a wise Elf, he fell prey to sweet words too easily, and I can never forgive him the Kinslaying!), Gorthang (that is the name of the Worm who cursed Turin and Nienor, isn't it?), Maeglin (that an Elf would betray the fair city of Gondolin for a little personal grudge is despicable), and Denethor (I pity him, but he was arrogant and a fool, he tried to kill his son, and he put unfair, unfatherly pressure on both his sons and, in my opinion, came close to ruining their lives).
