The three monstrous creatures that Beowulf fights are Grendel, Grendel's mother, and the Dragon. All three of them represent an inversion of Anglo-Saxonic core virtues.
1. Grendel is described as Cain's descendant, which means he is the devil's lot, fatherless (as he is not worthy to bear a name of a father), and bearing the sin of fratricide (killing one's own brother). He kills and devours 30 warriors in their sleep, which is a coward's act. He is also bloodthirsty - he doesn't kill because of honor, but because he is a carnivorous beast.
2. Grendel's mother is a female villain. We don't get to know many details about her physical appearance, which makes her more of an archetype than an actual character. She wants to revenge her son, which means she acts according to the unwritten rules of blood feuds. But in Anglo-Saxon culture, it was not a woman's duty to act on revenge. It is a male prerogative.
3. Dragon, the last villain Beowulf fights, represents some kind of inversion of kingly virtues. At the moment, Beowulf has been ruling for over 50 years. Of course, he is a just and righteous king, generous toward his warriors and subjects. On the other side, the Dragon is a destructive, irrational force that poses an ultimate threat to the kingdom. He jealously guards the treasure and attacks the realm because a single cup has been stolen from him. He is the exact opposite of what Beowulf represents, and that makes him Beowulf's antipode.
Seafarer is the main hero in the Anglo-Saxon Ballad. the character has embraced a existence adrift. He begins by introducing the issues over mariners life, like the detachment, the unusual weather and the ferocious sea. not being able to deal with these difficulties he leaves and goes for new adventure. but before being able to finish the ballad instructs his pursuers and his of fleetingness of "natural life and the quality of the Lord's hand".
He is a troubadour, and is being pushed from his kingdom after the death of the Lord. consequence to him not being able to locate another master, the Wanderer travel the Earth feeling isolated and thinking of his previous life he is similar to the seafarer because he "ruminates on the short life of natural life and the energy of destiny".
