Thanks for mentioning Lal. . .I completely forgot how Odin seem to have been split up between Gandalf and Sauron, very interesting. I belive David Day mentions it as well.
Odin and Loke is both very complex gods and in a way very much like each other. . .yet Odin is generally precived as good and Loke as evil, which I find very interesting.
I would very muched have liked to have this kind of charachter in Tolkiens books, it would be a nice change from all the "Good guy" "Bad guy" stuff there is going on.
I am not saying that there are not charachters with both good and bad traits in tolkiens books, there are. I just would really have loved to see a complex person, that one would not know where to place. . . Is he good or is he bad?
You have hints of it in Boromir, but very simplefied and I guess one could argue that you see a bit in Thorin and Saruman as well.
oh but now I am getting off topic in my own thread. . . .
