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.

yes i agree. At least your typical evil guy will give people a figthing chance to resist him. But Lord Foul makes people despair fighting him and make them the tools of their own destructions. This was true of both the giants of seareach and the Blooodguard who ultimatly were betrayed by their vow. And Covenant was forced into dire straights with the threat that his power could be used to destroy the land making him fearing using it and therefore overcome lord foul. He is the avatar of true evil in the Land.

Maybe this is too far offtopic, but what about Richard III? Who of you considers him evil? (I'd be very interested to know what the general opinion about this is)

Today, My art teacher scolded me for not using a paintbrush properly! So therefore I brandish him evil and cruel.

He is a evil wicked man who should be roasted with pit fiend droppings.

Man!
How can they tell you something like that???

I mean a paintbrush is a tool for you.. right, it is supposed to be used however you want to get it to perform what you wish to accomplish!

Ever listened to Meatloaf??

Not much - I've heard one of their songs titled "I would do anything for love" but not many people have recommended it: Can you recommend me some? Would love to hear some new music!

Oh yeah, just in case you were wondering - it's one if those paintbrushes that can only be wielded with a body mass of less than 40kgs. The damn thing is thinner than a chopstick and it is twice as brittle.

Apparently you're right, the college shouldn't allow measly thin paintbrushes, they should buy the thick ones my Dad uses to whip the stockroom walls - "BOY THEY ARE "T-H-I-C-K",

Uh......er...they do make good toothpicks - not that I've tried, lol!

Why that dirty bugger!!

Let's all gang up on him and force him to try and recreate the Mona Lisa with one of those wide foam brushes.

Oops! Did I actually write that!
