Especially if the characters choices and their actions are influenced by their own virtues and flaws, and both are being exploited by said evil. Then you've got the making's of a great story. Being able to humanize the character, make them empathetic or respectable is what you should strive. If you can't do either for your character, then the character probably isnt interesting.
