Looking for an absolute dastardly villain / antagonist interested in playing out a story centered around one question:
Can Braze's spirit actually be broken?
I'm craving a conflict built around agency versus control. Someone who doesn't simply want to defeat Braze, but wants to prove they can strip away his independence, wear down his resistance, and eventually make him submit, / surrender, or question the things he believes make him who he is.
Capture, psychological pressure, manipulation, failed escape attempts, power struggles, reluctant cooperation, mind games…all very welcome.
Basically, I am volunteering Braze for damsel-in-distress duty and looking for an antagonist dastardly enough to really commit to the bit.
Bonus points for a villain who might genuinely admire Braze's spirit while simultaneously becoming obsessed with being the one who finally breaks it.
I'm not looking for an easy victory or instant helplessness, either. I want the struggle. Let him fight back, bite, scheme, refuse, exhaust himself, maybe even reach the point where he stops fighting for a while…and then see what it takes to make him choose to stand back up again.
