[QUOTE="Arlough, post: 5444048, member: 79335"] Reasons a mortal could want to destroy the world. [LIST] [*]Devoted to a religion that believes that after the final conflict/end of the world, all good people will be resurrected and heaven will rule on earth. [*]Dark god or other great power gave back the life that the NPC lost in some sort of conflict. So the NPC, who has no real attachment to the world, will obey the dark power even to the point of bringing about the apokolypse. (see Teen Titans episode 52 "The End, pt. III") [*]Having lost his or her family in a)the wars that blanket the world or b)as some sort of sacrifice to "save the world" the character decides to take revenge on everything, and is willing to sell his/her soul to do so. [*]The antagonist believes that this world is a dream, or maybe a nightmare, and the only way to awaken from this dream is to end everything. [*]The antagonist believes that, in the process of ending the world, he/she will gain godly powers, perhaps by absorbing all the souls that perish (good for an infernal pact warlock) or maybe the process that gives power will end the world, and he/she doesn't care. [*]"It is better to end the world than to allow evil to exist upon it!" [*]"I am taking the path of least bloodshed." as in, if we spill all the blood now, then we cap the total amount of spilled blood in the universe to the amount available at this time. (Tōsen Kaname method of peace.) [*]"I'm not destroying the world, I am saving it. And if I have to do this to save the world, then that is a price I am willing to pay!" [*]"What does this button do?"
