The interesting thing bout that little wascal gollum is that he is actually the

hero of the whole story. If not for Gollum the ring would have gone back to

Sauron. There is no doubt that Frodo would succumb to the will of the ring

because that is exactly what he does at the end of the story. He claims the

ring for his own and puts it on. It was Gollum who destroyed the ring (albeit

accidentally). It shows that even Black hearted little evil characters have

a part to play in history even if they are just small and malevolent.
