[QUOTE="Draconis Imperium, post: 276976, member: 5768"] I like my evil villiens to be just a little more powerful than the PC's. This requires more prep time from me but I like the adventures more. I like to give the PC's hope of finally destroying the evil one and he somehow slips away or pounds them until they need to run away. It keeps them begging to return. I don't think a villien should be either a love to hate or hate to hate. I think your PC's should do both of them on different occasions. No villien should be one dimensional all the time. I play mine like I do my characters. Different moods and feelings. My main bad guy is a Evil Cleric- 1/2 orc who is motivated by revenge on elves. Of course my PC's foiled one of his minions so from time to time he takes time to throw something miserable their way but to him they are a nuisance right now, not a threat. Though as they gain levels they will become a threat. They are right now trying to find a way to defeat a dragon because he led them to believe it was the dragon doing for misfortunes. So he wants to enjoy watching them become dragon snacks. And he didn't need to do much My 2 coppers for what its worth [/QUOTE]
