The Lady of the Green Kirtle. I think she's better then The White Witch because she's more mysterious, more deceptive, more evil, and better looking. I also think her shape shifting abilities into a serpant are cool and scary. And she seems a bit darker as a character, especially when she murdered Lilliandil.

I voted for Jadis. I loved her in The Magician's Nephew. There was something intimidating and yet, at the same time, humorous about her in that book. Her conceit is so clear in what she says, it makes you laugh. But then she shows her power, and your reminded again of how dangerous she really is.

It seems both the witches are quite popular.
For me it was Jadis, her chilligness, is erm, aweinspiring ( not sure that is quite the right word but nerver mind), plus she appears loads in the books, and even more in the films.

I choose Shift, because out of his own greed and lust for power he betrays his own people -The Narnians- to slavery and the Calormenes. He betrays his God and uses a friendly, but naive Donkey for his work. He's a real manipulator and blasphemist and doesn't feel bad about his actions. Even when Ginger and Rishda were pulling the strings, he still could have ended all the misery by telling the Narnians the truth.

For all the well written reasons above I think it has got to be Shift.

I picked "other," because I have a kind of weird vote.

The Dark Island.

It always really creeped me out, and the way Lord Rhoop talked about it as though it had a mind of its own (he said something like, 'I was a fool to think they'd let me out') just added to the creepiness. Of course, he was half-crazed, so you could just pass that off as nonsense. But it's also true that the island wouldn't let them out until Aslan intervened.

True. That always creeped me out. I've heard that called something like 'genus loci'--a place with a mind.

Tarkheena, you bring up an odd point....I had not considered that before. Interesting observation!

I was even more frightened by Jadis after reading MN. I like how she was devlopped in the story. I wish we knew more about her and her life in Charn.

Mine is Rabadash, a lot more is shown of him than a lot of the other villains and he is extremely interesting.

^^ I love Jadis the White Witch as the Villain in Narnia, maybe in the entire Chronicles of Narnia. And I love it when she killed Aslan in the stone table and saying that they will going to take Narnia...Pretty nice..

Well, I have no particular favorite bad guy (or gal), but if I had to choose one to go up against, I suppose it would be Maugrim. He's a nasty piece of work, but he's not magic, and he's rather predictable. Plus, he'd make a nice coat...

I voted for Jadis because the others hardly do as much 'evil' as her (in my opinion). I do think that all of these 'villains' share something in common, which is their selfishness, their cruellness and their inability to see past their own fat noses. But Jadis takes the cake for me in supreme evil ^^ I was quite horrified when I read LWW when I was six

My choice has to be the lady of the Green Kirtle she is my very favourite type of villain, the ones who are beautiful and charming and then turn nasty. The last two books of the series are my favourite but the lady of the Green Kirtle is a much sutler than the evil Shift.

The Lady of the Green Kirtle. She's so different from everyone else. And you really don't see her as bad at first. She seems sweet and innocent, but when you look deeper you see her for what she truly is: evil.

Second favorite would be Rabadash, just because he's so funny to read about.
