Hey everyone! As a huge Stranger Things fan, I've always been fascinated by the sheer power and presence some of our favorite characters exude. We're not talking about villains necessarily, but those characters who are undeniably 'baddass' – the ones who stand their ground, fight for what's right, or just have that undeniable charisma that makes them unforgettable. So, I decided to compile my personal ranking of the baddest Stranger Things characters, and trust me, it wasn't easy! Topping many lists, and certainly high on mine, is Eleven, portrayed by the incredible Millie Bobby Brown. From her very first appearance, Eleven was a force to be reckoned with. Her telekinetic powers are iconic, but what truly makes her a 'baddie' in my book is her unwavering loyalty, fierce protectiveness of her friends, and her journey of self-discovery. She's faced unimaginable trauma, yet she always rises stronger, proving that true strength isn't just about powers, but about resilience and heart. Millie Bobby Brown brings such depth to Eleven, making her both vulnerable and incredibly formidable. It's that blend of power and emotion that makes her so captivating and, yes, undeniably fierce. She's grown from a shy, scared girl into a powerful young woman who commands respect, and that confidence is a huge part of her 'baddie' appeal. Next up, we have Max Mayfield. Max is the definition of cool. Her skateboard, her sharp wit, and her ability to stand up to anyone, even her abusive step-brother, make her a fan favorite. Her arc in Season 4, bravely facing Vecna, cemented her as one of the show's most courageous and strong-willed characters. She might not have superpowers, but her mental fortitude and refusal to back down make her an absolute baddie. Let's not forget Erica Sinclair! She might be young, but Erica is a powerhouse of sass, intelligence, and comedic timing. She's not afraid to speak her mind, and when the going gets tough, she's proven herself to be remarkably brave and resourceful. Whether she's demanding payment for her services or helping to save the world, Erica does it with an undeniable swagger that makes her one of the show's most delightful baddies. Then there's Robin Buckley. Robin is smart, quick-witted, and incredibly loyal. She brings a refreshing honesty to the group and isn't afraid to be herself. Her ability to decipher codes, her clever banter, and her genuine courage when faced with danger make her an essential part of the team and a true baddie in her own right. She's the kind of friend you want by your side when things get weird. And finally, while not a hero, I have to mention characters like Angela. While she was clearly a bully and a villain in Eleven's California storyline, she embodied a certain kind of 'baddie' in terms of being an antagonist who truly made life difficult. Her presence highlighted Eleven's isolation and struggle, making Eleven's eventual stand against her even more impactful. Sometimes, the 'baddies' are also the antagonists who drive the plot forward and make our heroes shine even brighter. Ranking these characters was a blast, and it really highlights the incredible writing and acting in Stranger Things. Each of these characters, especially Millie Bobby Brown's Eleven, brings something unique and powerful to the screen. What do you think? Who are your top 'baddest' ST characters?
