Powerful gods of chaos, mischievous demons, and sorcerers who are far too curious about the dark arts for their own good. Evil itself sometimes has its own identity. The better villains though, arguably, are exactly the ones you describe. The less obvious ones, the well-rounded ones, and my personal favorite, the ones whose villainy seems to be thrust upon them. :-) Great blog!

We spend a lot of time with them as we write--and why would we want to spend that time on the dark side with totally evil creeps?
