One-line villains

[The_Universe]

He is the megalomaniacal but imprisoned lich-king of the frozen northlands with uncounted armies of the dead and damned at his disposal, bent on ruling the world that he believes is (and may *actually* be) his stolen birthright.

 

[The_Universe]

He is the ghostly dragon son of a mortal prince and a serpent goddess, a devious mastermind and powerful sorcerer whose millenia-long plans and ability to twist mortal minds and flesh have allowed him to cheat his own death and nearly establish dominion over his father's homeland twice over.

 

[The_Universe]

A priestess of a serpent goddess seeks to replace her patroness by twisting the will of the goddess's son with seduction, the promise of power, and the use of holy (but mortal) bloodlines.

 

[Ralif Redhammer]

This is very cool. So much concentrated creativity.

A greedy golden-bearded and gold-obssessed dwarven thief that is out to trick the PCs into helping him get rich quick and strand them in the middle of a monster-infested dwarven ruin.


The wererat deepgnome resembles a hairless gray rat even when in demihuman form, and if rats could speak, whines and taunts like one.

 

[JamesDJarvis]

Kurg is a cunning and brutal warlord that will do whatever it takes to retain his power yet is still charasmatic and has a diverese band of followers willing to support him.

 

[Ycore Rixle]

A feral nymph barbarian 9 who drools and swings a spiked chain; she was corrupted by stray Incarnum (blatant plug for upcoming book ).

Slinkmor Vorshannen, an avolakian solicitor who led a proletariat revolt against the PCs after they endangered their hometown by attracting demonic attention and caused vrocks to gate into the Processional Square (Slinkmor did have a point...).

 

[fafhrd]

A fat and avuncular village reeve from Cyre, he maintains order in the district of Highwalls but is known to get "distracted" with the right inducements.

 

[Ravilah]

Madame Sorticia, a powerful medusa illusionist, runs the Basilisk Bordello in the Bastion of Last Hope, using her wiles, her magic, and her bevy of illusioned night hags to beguile and manipulate all the most powerful men (drider/slaadi/yugoloth/etc) in the Bastion.

Black Bulwie, a fallen paladin raising a half-dragon army in a secret base on the fifth level of Hell, using old-fashioned breeding techniques involving hostages and five enslaved chromatic dragons.

Kivasha, an ancient lich, who--tired of living forever with nothing but zombies and vampires for company--seeks the lost Book of the Red Witch and Tome of the Blue Angel in order to perform a ritual that will return her to a young, mortal body by casting her "undeadness" on another.

 

[IcyCool]

"No, Mr. Bjorn," the bald gray skinned dwarf snarled. "I mean to kill you."

"Do you expect me to talk, Stonefinger?"

"No, Mr. Bjorn," the bald gray skinned dwarf snarled. "I expect you to die."

 

[Queen_Dopplepopolis]

I don't really have anything to add (I've only run a single adventure and the bad guy has yet to really be "run")...

But - this is a **great** thread!
