Ah! Thank you. I was thinking more along the lines of one-dimensional 
stock characters, as in all good or all evil. My point in any case 
was that Draco wouldn't have to be two-dimensional/flat/whatever, 
even if he were evil; some villains (albeit not Voldemort, as yet) 
have very well rounded personalities. Agreed?
