Is your villain character Broken or Pure Evil

[Aoki-Barran Mira]

I hate TikTok. I also enjoy those Broken or Pure Evil villain videos with the sad song beat that slaps.

So... Your villain you write on Chaos. Whether it be a Sith Lord, dark spider of another type, bounty hunter, criminal, etc.? Would you classify them as Broken or Pure Evil?

The closest character I have to a villain is Olaya Astrapí , and she's Broken.

 

[Corbin Vasher]

Mnoi Akûti is more a Broken Anti-Hero. Teket is Twisted by the Dark Side. Not sure if that counts as "Pure Evil." I don't think it does, but we'll see.

 

[Mercy]

Mercy is a cheerful happy villain. She enjoys every moment of her avalanche of chaos through the Galaxy. Her sound track is definitely something upbeat, maybe slightly slapstick, but with big energy behind it.

Hmm.

So I guess from the two, she is definitely just Pure Evil. Though she gets some redeeming moments, because Mercy doesn't enjoy being put in a single box.

 

[Lady Venge]

I'd say Venge is pure evil and she enjoys every single minute of it.

 

[Ronin Wendigo]

Hmmm, I guess Ron sort has a pure evil tendency given he's quite broken ln a sense.....

 

[Percival Io]

Broken.

Same with Val Drutin and, to a lesser extent, Ishani Dinn .

I have had Pure Evil characters before though, they are very fun to write.

 

[Ger Springs]

Ger is a poor broken guy who just wants a hug and ice cream.

 

[Mevia Vizsla]

Mevia is broken. Selfish broken, but broken. She has so much hatred and jealousy, spawned from being dealt an unfair hand in her early life. But she was raised in a safe home and by a loving family, with every chance to grow from her early trauma and move on. But she instead chose to let her jealousy and rage control her actions. She is far from pure evil though, with several redeeming qualities. She's a sucker for the underdog, and she has a heart. But right now, that good in her is buried beneath her bitterness and vengeance.

 

[Darth Wallgof]

Simple answer: Both

Longer answer: Darth Wallgof suffers from several split personalities, psychopathy and a few other things that make him broken mentally and a tortured soul. But he is also actively wanting to do harm. It is not just as simple as being broken and that makes you evil, you choose to do evil acts. There will be people suffering similar issues or fates but they did not go out and start harming others. But for Darth Wallgof, he is blind to that belief, that ideology and sees this as the only course of action he had.

 

[Darth Prazutis]

Both. Didn't start out the way he is, but became the heart of darkness over time.
