Rashid ad-Din as-Sinan (Old Man of the Mountain) He was the Grand Master of the Hashishin, an assassin organisation that existed 11th to the 13th century. This guy had more power than all sultans and vezirs together in Syria and its neighbourhood countries.2. Doctor MabuseHe is the big evil guy in dozens of novels from the 60's Edgar Wallace series. They were very popular in Germany. Fritz Lang did create the character in  his movies "Dr. Mabuse, der Spieler" and "The thousand eyes of Dr. Mabuse" . Those movies were the template for the Edgar Wallace books. Mabuse is a brilliant and well respected psychiatrist who lives a double live as a the head of a terrorist/criminal organization. There are some English pages on the net about Dr. Mabuse and perhaps you can grab the odd book/dvd to look/read through it.Here are some more infos about him <a href="http://www.drmabuse.org/doctor.htm" target="_blank">http://www.drmabuse.org/doctor.htm</a> and here <a href="http://www.dvdcult.com/rev_1000Eyes.htm" target="_blank">http://www.dvdcult.com/rev_1000Eyes.htm</a>3. FantômasOld French novel about the evil mastermind Fantômas who is chased through several novels by Inspecteur Juve of the French Sûreté who is sometimes assisted by the journalist Fandor. Fantômas is a master of disguise and illusion. He appears in hundreds of disguises and plays games with those that chase him. He is absolutely brutal and rutheless on the brink of madness. He is especially creative when it comes to executing people he really doesnt like. A nice example was when he used a man as the clapper of a church bell. He then let the bell swing until the man was dead ]>).You should be able to find more about him here <a href="http://www.fantomas-lives.com/" target="_blank">http://www.fantomas-lives.com/</a>Oh, and as a runner-up I'd nominate Dr. Fu-Man-Chu. I mean, no one beats Christopher Lee in that role *g*my 2 centsJupp</blockquote>
