Inventor of Super-Toast
A half-dragon kobold mercenary, his unpleasantness warped into cruelty when he was possessed by a deposed demon lord, plots to unleash an army of fiends over Toril and drag it into the Abyss.
An oozemaster, so twisted as to be only tangentially human, conducts strange rituals in the dark places of the earth so as to bring about the return of the Elder Gods he serves.
Debased and decadent, this paragon illithid has trained as an assassin and now seeks a weapon that can be used to slay a god.
This slaad lord, trapped beneath an ancient volcano, has lured women to his lair to produce four sons, whom he conspires to first conquer the nation where his prison sits, then free him, then spread his reign of terror across the continents.
The warden of a prison and leader of the police in a troglodyte city, he is secretly a were-dinosaur, and seeks to spread his affliction by any means necessary.
Utterly amoral, this rakshasa lives as an "art dealer", providing other villains with the magical items they need to affect their plans.
A gnome necromancer, ejected from his home city for his bizarre experiments, now seeks to create flesh golems using the parts of those who put him into exile.
An ultroloth from Shavarath, the plane of war, the one known only as the Artisan was so entertained by the Last War that swept Eberron that he intends to start it again, by himself if need be.
An heir to the Cannith fortune, he considers warforged little more than things and authorizes experiments to "improve" them, no matter their methods.
A wicked Karrn vampire, Luther Averol seeks both blood and the chance to spread the influence of the Order of the Emerald Claw in Sharn.
Demiurge out.

Although I'm the DM, I find my players create the best villians for themselves...
A malevolant artifact, known by the players only as "The Black Bow", which has slept for millenia only to be slowly awoken by those who draw on its power (guess who); it seeks a weak yet prominent holder which it can use to slaughter entire nations (with a single arrow each), raising former populations as hideous undead to savage the world.
A rogue slain years ago, raised back to life by the power of a Dark Phoenix, wielding the Dark Phoenix's own living egg as a musical instrument that grants wishes as often as he desires, enslaved and corrupted by the power and will of this wicked bird which was itself corrupted by the actions of the party (of which the rogue was once a member).
The Dischordant Voices are intellegent shadows, remembering their past life yet compelled to serve a Dark Lord, bound together by divine magic, adding to their fold each time they kill, hunting souls that act as locks on the prison that holds a terrible evil god, killing in secret and masquerading as a wandering plague that kills suddenly and without warning and without symptoms.
The Rightful King, seeking to reclaim his thrown from the Evil Usurper, and yet evil himself, raising a peasant army to retake the capital and his crown, slaughtering thousands of his own people in the process.

An apparently immortal entity that has been reduced to mere organs and dispersed across the continent is still being worshipped and continues to manipulate powerful individuals.
A ruthless wizard bent on revenge at all costs (how un-original...).
A grimlock ranger-assassin with a darkness spell on her magic battle-axe (
)
A circle of druids who decided that humanity had gone too far, and sacrificed themselves so that nature would become a ravaging force (even more than it is).

He collected pewter figures of heroes past, played with them and always had his Cthulhu plushy win.
