So far there hasn't been anything too serious in the RP but what are your thoughts on antagonists? What makes a good villain for you? Do you like them unhinged, do you like them cold and calculating? Do you prefer an NPC villain or one who is directly portrayed by another player? What's good about being bad?[/I][/INDENT]

Well, to me, a good villain is what I call a grey villain. A villain who is a mixture of good and bad, an antagonist to the characters but not necessarily evil. They are good to some and bad to others. Even if they are "evil", not even the worst terrorists and criminals do things because they are bad. They do those bad things because they think they are justified. That they are in the right, that they are the victims against the villains. 

I like them crazy most of the time. The whole sob story, homeless street orphan-type stuff. The type to think that the world is against them, abandoned by others. I love villains that see, from their perspective, a world that was unkind to them. A world which hated them and belittled them. Everything they do is justified in their eyes because of all the things done against them.

Edit: I'm also away on a bush camp from the 7-9th of April. It's gonna be hype, hopefully I'll get the collab up before that
