Ideas for a villain....

[Funky Dynamite]

I need help for a villain for my design. Does anybody have any ideas?

[Dinonykos]

You could create a guy with white skin, greenish hair, evil laugh and an evil grin in his face, perhaps he could use joke articles to kill people...

Where did i get this idea?

[Dinonykos]

Just kidding, but I guess all of us would need some more information concerning you design. Furthermore, you did not tell if you mean the main villain or only a minor villain. I mean, the main villain and the background story are certainly stronly connected, right?

Please, fill us in a little more...

I fear I had too much villain ideas for my adventure, therefore I planned it too huge in the beginning. I wanted to have the Ursurpator, the weird masterbrain, the Jabba-the-Hutt guy, the lawful evil Samurai type, the fat old woman, the little kobold, the hellish entity, the evil religious cult leader and so on. A yes, the alien gene manipulator. And these were only the main villains...

Wow! That's a lot o villainy! (I don't have any villains at all in my "game" - it seems that it will be a dungeon romp, so far...)

[manikus]

Of course, you could always have the PCs be the villain and their adversaries would be the heroes. Maybe this wouldn't even be obvious at the beginning, but through a series of events...

[Dinonykos]

However, from the villain's point of view, the PCs may be villains even if they are the heroes. Does Funky Dynamite need ideas for a hero now?

[Funky Dynamite]

Ideas for a hero....
No, I don't. What do you think Funky Dynamite is? He's my PC. No, seriously, he is....
Anyway, duh, I'm a moron...ok, my design is going to be a typical dungeon crawl, in this case, through a very large castle. The typical action is going to be broken up by having to find clues and solve a mystery. The PCs take on the roles of detectives. Though my campaign has some modern elements, I didn't want to a modern day game. I wanted this one to be a fantasy. I don't know what kind of mystery it'll be yet. That's what I need a villain for, to help me figure out the timber (I think that's the right word) for the adventure....
Incidentally, originally I was going to have the player play -one- character, I rethought that and I'm thinking the player can make any character he/she wishes....

[Funky Dynamite]

Nevermind, guys. I finally my head huncho villain is going to be a mummy, ala Baldur's Gate II (PS2). I just need to figure out who his subordinates are.... :\
