Grand Senator Bronson from the Falkenberg Legion stories. He manipulated a collapsing intersteller empire to set himself up as the leader what was to come after, in the process he devistated numerous worlds and sponsered a brutal insurection on a peaceful democratic planet.
The rogue inquisitor from the first two books in the Eisenhorn trilogy. he instigated a titanic massacre just to free a few psykers, caused an entire squadron of Imperial warships to mutiny in an attempt to sieze a daemonic artifact, and corrupted hundreds of loyal imperalists to his goals.
and we cannot forget Grey Seer Thanquol from the Felix and Gotrek saga, one of the greatest and most brilliant villians ever (if only his henchmen would stop messing up)

Batman.
The psychotic madman who has never dealt with his parents death who feels the need to be a law-breaking vigilante, encouraging more villians to themselves become colorful freaks with even more murderous schemes that endanger the entire city much more than regular crimes.
To help his cause, he endangers troubled teenagers by giving them money, cool training and gadgets and a fancy costume so they can also be law-breaking vigilantes and he doesnt feel so alone.
But the absolute worst sin of this EVIL character is that when he finally catches all of his villians he simply turns them over to the local mental facility with the worst security known to man, allowing them to escape and run free again so he can feel useful, rather than just killing them and be done with it.
It is quite possible that Batman has more blood on his hands than any other fictional character ever written.
Jon Snow:
I decided to edit this with a spoiler, even though the thread title has spoilers and if you dont recognize the name you should know better. But the series is that good.
The schmuck who delayed the Serenity movie.
Evil incarnate.

This sorry sack of pathetic just goes along with what he's told, occasionally thinking that maybe he shouldn't but does anyway winds up causing the deaths of a few people. But after meeting a girl, lying to her to continue doing HIS right thing, and "falling in love", he turns his back on her and leaves her to die.
This guy does indeed "know nothing"
Easily, the cruelest thing I've read.

Naraku, from the Inu-Yasha manga/anime.

Spoiler that's revealed in the first few episodes
He tricks Inu-yasha and Kikyo into thinking the other has betrayed them, causing them to kill each other. (Well, Inuyasha was merely magically trapped for fifty years, not much of a story if the title character is dead).
He does many other horrible things.

I a not baby-killing or physical torturer manner:
Sarah Michelles Character in "Cruel Intentions". What she is doing is certainly evil and can not be justified by any means, except a perverted, self-centered mind...
I just noted that there are few startrek villains that are truely evil, but to me, it seems as if Gul Dukat finally was exactly that. He had several possiblities for redemption, and sometimes seemed to work for the good side. But eventually, he was only interested in himself, and didn´t care for anyone else. He never even attempted to avenge the death (murder) of his daughter, he betrayed the Alpha Quadrant to the Dominion in hope of power, he betrayed the Bajoron followers of his Pah-spirit sect, he even tried to betray the Pah-Spirits or at least one of her chosen ones (Kai Winn) when he had the chance to it...
The last of them ends up with manacles with one wrist to a car that is soon to explode, getting a knife (or something like that) to free himself...

Hearing the name of Caleb - how was the main "villain" in American Gothic called? (Caleb was his son´s name) He was definitely evil, I remeber the episode where three (or four?) gangsters (brothers?) try to mix up the city, and he kills them all four.
