I would disagree that Eol was all bad, if indeed you were implying such. He does seem to love Aredhel in his way; at least, she was almost happy with him until Maeglin started to grow up and she told him stories of her family and he suggested that they go to them.
Maeglin, on the other hand, I think could be called evil. Maybe. He did l.ust after his cousin (apparently akin to lus.ting one's sister to the elves) and his heart turned dark when she didn't return his love. And he wasn't exactly a filial son, either. Standing there watching his father get thrown off a cliff...
