Jareth

Jareth, sometimes known by his alter-ego of the Goblin-King, is the main villain of the movie Labyrinth and was portrayed by David Bowie - although a villain Jareth was not necessary a purely evil character and was more accurately amoral, seeking to please the young girl he fell in love with by granting her wish to have her baby brother "disappear", however his method of kidnapping and plan to turn the baby into a goblin were villainious as was the tricks and obstacles he set in play to ensure the heroes of the film would not make it to his castle in time to stop the curse he had placed.

A mysterious immortal Jareth was served loyally by many goblins but was also hated by many of the inhabitants of his world - the relationship between Jareth and the main female hero of the story is also shown to be a mix of mutual attraction and her repulsion at his plans.
