I've never run or played in an "evil" game. As much as I'd like to, I have problems wrapping my brain around the concept. Here's why:
In a group of four or five or six evil characters, there's bound to be someone who's trying to assert Alpha status on the rest of the group. This may be through sheer physical might and presence, outside contacts, networking, etc. Either someone's going to come out on top, or there's going to be a constant power struggle between two or more players.
This can be interesting, but ultimately this is just a game and I've seen people get frustrated and annoyed with this kind of infighting. I think it'd be cool as a sort of "mini-series" but I have trouble imagining this lasting for an extended period of time.
Hmmm... I just had a thought. What if every PC has a Secret? Not really a stretch, I know. But imagine that each PC knows another's secret, but they don't know whose it is, nor do they know who knows. That could be really interesting
