Frodo -> The Ring
He had to overcome the lust for the Ring. Unfortunately, he was doomed from the beginning because the Ring was bound up in his own desires. He did the best that could be expected of him under the circumstances, and I don't think anybody could say any better of him than that. Sam -> hmmm...this is a toughie, but I'll say despair It was only partially despair for himself, which I think is what helped him overcome it. However, he ultimately had to continue knowing that there was no way for himself or Frodo to go back alive. His ultimate virtue was loyalty to something other than himself. Hurin -> Morgoth I've already expounded at length on this particular topic, but as a little refresher... Mere mortal man...stands up to great primeval evil with no hope of rescue or improvement...still never breaks (well, on purpose).
