User blog:Austin8310/Essay: The Dynamics of Heroes and Villians

Okay, this is an essay I wrote about this wiki because I felt like it. Not much more to say other than "Read it."

Villians
Villians are a crucial part of the CPFW, as it provides conflict between Good and Evil.

Average Villian
Your average villian. See Deathfin here. Hilariously basic.

"Deathfin Is a villain who is against Xorai, Darktan and Nightmare. He is one of the top criminals in the Sub-Antarctic."

That's average. He's against everyone and he blows stuff up. Other examples are Walrus1, Darktan, Nightmare, WishFlyX.

Sub-Villian
This class is of villians who aren't exactly "EVIL", but more pathetic-aka wannabes.

Xorai is the prime example. He's weak, he pretends to be scary...not a real bad guy.

Twisted Villian
As Zone said

"The good kind of villian needs to be able to lie through his teeth, and have people believe him."

Examples? Whoot Smackler Whoot (no, he's not really a villian.) He made up a bunch of reasons to attack HPs, and people believed him. Also, Zone and Photon follow this almost perfectly.

Anyway, then there are heroes.

Heroes
Heroes are good guys. OBVIOUSLY. Even the definition on www.dictionary.com says so. (LOL.)

However, there are different types of them.

Anti-Villians
These folks are a rare class. They aren't nescessarily "evil", but they aren't good. They don't have heroistic characteristics, they normally do things for revenge, etc. See Flywish. At first he looks like your stereotypical hero. However, he has much more bloodlust than other heroes, and his army is made for revenge. In fact, his army is a squad of X-Antibodies that didn't come out right, random mercenaries and penguins, and other folks who signed on because they wanted a job. Not an average hero.

Stereotypical Hero
We all know this boring type. Blah blah blah, they're heroic, they're mary sues, they never lose, they're all powerful. Ben Hun, Triskelle3, Luce, Finwe...you get the idea. Lots of these.

Anyway, there isn't really a "Good+Evil." Darktan's minions think he's good-but everyone else doesn't. Flywish thinks eradicating Mwa Mwa Penguins is right-yet maybe it isn't. (Nah, he's right.) Austin8310 thinks anything could be right as long as it's not too evil and he gets money. Sante Monte Captio---I don't think he would care. Tails6000 goes with the stereotypical "good guy" and Darktan goes with the stereotypical "bad guy."

Gray Characters
I like these characters. Not exactly good, but not really evil. Examples: Flywish could be here also. Austin8310 goes here, Zone goes here (ish). These add flavor to the story, as they are often either double agents, instruments in the plot, information givers, or other important. They can be used for either side.

Anyway, this kinda just defines good, evil, neutral, etc-etc. Just made this because I was bored. So yeha, tell me what ya think.
