1st. Curunir (I mean, wheels and forges and weapons and fires and an unbreakable tower...)
2nd. Gollum (small, corrupt, agile, aged, I could go on for days listing his marvelous qualities) and Morgoth (he's awesome)
3rd. Glaurung. Able to make a strong-willed person lose her memory, and destroy a forest and hold men still with his eyes, and notice things he can't see, and on and on...
4th. A tie between Carcharoth (did I miss spell that?) and the Witch-King. One broke the Girdle of Melian and scorned a Silmaril-well, I guess it was unwise- and the other spread fear like nobody's business and was one of the pinnacles of sheer awesomeness.
5th. All dragons and Balrogs from M-E collectively.
