    Is this awesome? Y/N

    A scheming vizier who seeks to snuff out the light of the sun to grant herself eternal beauty. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgRMXKoVp1w)

    An invading warlord who feels his honour has been personally insulted by your bemevolent emperor.

    A sadistic vizier who subjgates the greatest city in the known world with dark, sorcerous magics and artifacts he manipulated the party to gain.

    A crazy lady who really wants a coat made of some fucking dogs. Like, really badly.

    A sly conman with frightening, otherworldly powers who seeks to drain an entire ciy of it's souls to pay off his dark masters.

    An insane high priest consumed by his burning desire for a female PC, and filled with hate by his shame over this. Has great legal influence in the city where events take place.

    A bombastic, wheeling-dealing god of death whose long-term plans absolutely demand the PCs die, and permantently.

    Honestly, I wish more GMs used Disneyesque villiany in their games. It's far more entertaining and memorable.

    We've also got:

    A witch who manipulates a princess in order to acquire the king's Artifact of Power and Rulership.

    A corrupt governor who rallies his people to war against a nearby primitive tribe to acquire what he believes to be vast amounts of hidden wealth.

    A minor noble matron who will do ANYTHING to get one of her daughters married to the prince.

    A renowned adventurer who is so beloved, he can get the entire town to back him up in his plot to score with one cute peasant girl.

    >captcha: governor ticut

    I think Captcha has a suggestion for number two.

    I. . . .I never got the "I'd be a better ruler then you, MUFASA!" vibe off Scar. I always, always felt like "I want your shit, but can't take it the normal, accepted way. So i'm gonna bury you with my brains, and my army of hyena minions." was what was going on.

    Because, after that it was always showing him being the cruel, capricious ruler abusing his power, not a guy trying and failing to do something.

    I think that so many GMs are fixated on the idea of plot twists and trying to manipulate the players into not seeing the true enemy until it's to late, they forget the effectiveness of a villain who is obviously a villain from the beginning.

    Of course, part of the problem is that I've seen few players who are willing to play along. Most players tend to be genre-savvy, and many play their character genre-savvy as well, without realizing that it's really just another form of metagaming. I mean, just because YOU know that the dark-robed and sinister advisor to the king is likely a villain doesn't mean your PC knows, or would even imagine it; to his view, that advisor has been serving the king faithfully for years, so why shouldn't he be trusted?

    If he is, shouting "KILL THAT GUY HE BAD" while pointing with your sword at the guy who's helped steer the kingdom through rough waters for years isn't exactly a smart move. God help them if the barabarian actually leap-charge-power-attacks to spite the DM.

    Well, yeah, Scar was obviously just in it for the sake of power and glory. He felt cheated, and wanted to gain people's respect by force, even if it meant murdering his brother's children and subjugating the rest of the lions with an army of hyenas.

    On the other hand, the main thing he promised the hyenas was that they wouldn't have to starve anymore. This must have been a serious concern for them, or else Scar wouldn't have had as much support as he did.

    But it all went down the drain, because he had the misfortune of performing his power grab at the beginning of a drought. Letting the hyenas hunt freely couldn't have helped matters, but simple mismanagement can't account for the massive damage the ecosystem suffered during Scar's reign.

    Exactly. Gaston was the hero of the town because everything he did seemed like it was in the people's best interest.

    He's the villain of the movie because everything he did was SOLELY out of personal gain, which involved falsely imprisoning one character, blackmailing another, and killing a third.

    I not saying Gaston was evil, I'm saying he was a villain. A tragic villain, perhaps, but a villain nonetheless. And people can be villains without being evil.

    Hell, what is? Vincent Price was god.

    Matter of fact, that's one of the common threads in Disney villains. They always get the best people to voice them. Scar was Jeremy Irons, Frollo was Tony Jay, Rattigan was Vincent Price, Keith David was Dr. Facilier... Hades was kind of the exception, "only" being James Woods, but his camp 80s routine was perfect for it.

    And, like posted previously, he wasnt evil, but he was the antagonist. He friggin tried to kill the Beast after he showed Gaston mercy.

    A pirate ship crewed by the deathless damned.

    A mad sorceress with a grudge against the PCs mentor tormenting them to lure him out.

    A hunter who uses the PCs to root out a hidden tribe for the privilege of slaying them.

    The leader of an expedition the PCs have allied themselves with, intending to sell a powerful magical artifact to an enemy kingdom regardless of the civilization that needs it to survive.

    A swindler luring away children with promises of leisure in order to enslave them, then polymorphing them so they can't be recognized.

    sure they are. if the action is of benefit to others then why would it make the action less good if it benefits you as well.

    say that you put $100 in the cup of a homeless person because you know others will see you as a kind and caring soul, and you might even get some "oh, i really admire good and thoughtful people" sex out of it. just because you migh stand to gain the most from the good act doesnt make it more good.


    of course, there is a difference between "doing good out of the kindness of my heart" good, and "doing good because it will benefit me as much as the people i helped".

    real life isnt like D&D where good and evil are (perhaps not so) clearly defined absolutes, and where good actions for selfish reasons are bad.

    nah. i didnt watch many kids movies when i was a kid. i mainly watched horror movies, and even later at night, the adult channel.

    both after my folks had gone to sleep of course.

    yes, having my room in the basement had its benefits.

    An educated but thoroughly evil man who uses his unnatural eyes to instill fear in others. This obsession with fear has led to his construction of a Dark Carnvial, filled with the worst horrors and terrors he can muster. His greatest triumph is a concotion that has the power to twist any consuming it into nightmarish, unthinkng beasts to star in the ghastly spotlight of his hellish bigtop.

    Professor Screweye.

    A demon trapped using druidic magic escapes and wreaks havoc on his former captors using new technology. He is also the most ludicrously charming thing in a hundred mile radius.

    Hexxus from Fern Gully (again not Disney).

    A defamed and exiled ascetic vows vengeance on the royal family who exiled him, selling his soul and losing his God-given healing gifts, becoming a wraith in the process, to be able to summon and manipulate demons to do his dirty work.

    You can read the entirety of Hamlet without anything really damning Claudius as an unsympathetic villain. Hamlet is just as bad as he is.

    They weren't really made of energy, whatever that "Pure energy" bollocks they spread around.

    If anything they were luminous matter. Or a light-based nervous system wrapped up in a fleshy shell.

    A bureaucrat is given newfound powers by an evil god, who stole from the creator of the world. Now the bureaucrat seeks to become greater than any god, while the creator deity in question has found himself cast out of heaven and stuck in mortal form - having to use his knowledge of the world he created to help his allies save the world from the autocratic iron grip of the new dark lord.

    If the villains become Campaign villains, what would that make the heroes/heroines? Player Characters? Supporting cast for the PCs? Heroes in their own right? Different villains?
