@otherworldlyhistorian @princesachronicle22 You’re good. 🙂
Both of your Rp’s were fun to read.

For your second question: Um, I agree with @arcaneaxiom in that any villain can be learned from. Even terrible villains I could learn from what specifically to avoid when writing my villains, so…yeah.
But, I’ll give you a list of villains, since that’s what you’re asking for (I think).

Esther replied to the topic What makes a good Villain? in the forum Characters 1 year, 9 months ago
Great question!! So, y’all have already said a lot, so sorry if I repeat anything! 🙂
First of all, I think villains need to be relatable. Now, I know that most of us won’t be doing everything in our power to oppose someone, even to the point of hiring henchmen and destroying things… (XD) but we need to make them relat…[Read more]

*is now stalking this forum for tips*
HMMMM
Well, I haven’t studied villains a lot.
Personally, I prefer if the villains get redeemed…
But if they must choose to be unredeemable, then:
1. They gotta be relatable, and make the MC or readers see themselves in the villain. (like, a possible reflection)
2. Don’t do them…[Read more]

What are some villains you have read or seen (and have not already been mentioned) that you think we could learn from?
Fine, I won’t mention Zuko again, starting now.
I think it depends on what you mean by that, because I think that any well written villain can be learned from. On face value at least, you can see where t…[Read more]

Ah yes I think you may have misunderstood what I was saying (or I said it in a not clear way my bad lol!)
I agree on that with villains! I was merely saying, I think there should at least be a few clear cut good guys in a story, just to keep a balance, and this does not mean they have to be perfect.
Clear cut doesn’t mea…[Read more]

I can totally relate to the bibliography. I just finished one for my own paper which was also coincidentally on a dictators rise (specifically Hitler’s).
Wow that’s so similar to what I’m doing! Mine is about the shared tactics used, so for me it’s Hitler, Franco (spain), Moa Zadong (might have butchered his name) and m…[Read more]

Yeah, I agree, and that’s Zuko and Azula for you, but I still think that Ozai is a great villain. Though he may not be able to be sympathized with, I think the plain big bad is underrated, though considered cheesy in a lot of writing, Ozai is the pure bad done right. I think that’s probably the biggest thing is doing the…[Read more]

I am in the Gryffindor house. Favorite time period? That’s such an amazing question and so hard because I have so many! #1- I love the 1970s! #2- Victorian times #3- Edwardian. I love the 70s because of the clothes and the style, I love bell bottoms and the bright colors on everything. Victorian times are because the cloths…[Read more]

Hey guys. I thought I’d finally share my Journey to the Past story (JTTP) about four kids who get transported to Tolkien’s middle earth! This is probably my favorite fan fiction I have written. I wrote it according to The Hobbit book (I don’t think I had watched the movies when I wrote this so there’s no Tauriel in it after all.)
Hope you enjoy!…[Read more]

That is fascinating! It puts a good limit on the ability but also makes it accesible to anyone if they are dedicated, I love it!
So this is the telepathy color, and you kind of wrote some of that and how he’s sending them those feelings. I really like how you used that, and how you wrote him.
