If you haven't read the Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, you won't know of Lord Foul - but I can tell you he is truly the personification of evil in my mind. Because he represents the dark, hateful sides of people, he can manipulate that part of them effortlessly by setting up traps and dilemmas that force a character to make choices; neither of which are a way out, as, slowly, the target is forced to turn his hand against that which he loves. This is a mind that carefully liad plans to ensure his demise would ensure his ultimate victory and despicably horrible revenge - even when his armies were crushing all resistance.
