Well, Androg was a murderer and attempted rapist, Mim went around scattering curses wherever he went, Turin brought down Nargothrond, and Maeglin betrayed Gondolin and tried his hand at infanticide. I think all of them fall firmly into the 'if you'd died sooner everyone around you would have been better off' category; whether I like them is beside the point. (For the record, I feel a lot of sympathy for Mim, but yikes was he malicious.)

So is that over to me?

Yes, it is.

And what's is this? You feel sympathy for an 'evil' character? Well, so do I. What a happy coincidence.

Frodo

... and no other named characters.*

*At least, not confirmed.

They were the only Hobbits who were allowed to sail to Valinor (to my knowledge)

Well, true, but this is something entirely independent of their race/species.

The only three known/named as owners of Sting?

Or the only three actually *referred to* as Ringbearers in reference to the One Ring, since Sauron, Isildur, Sméagol and Deagol were not? Bilbo was ONCE, by Frodo, at the Havens, where he said 'Yes, I am coming. The Ringbearers should go together.'

Correct - though wielders, rather than owners. Bill, Bert, and Tom were collective owners, after all, but it's hard to imagine them wielding it. And presumably some Gondolin elf (maybe even Turgon himself) once owned and used it... but that's not confirmed.

Over to you.
