the thing that always messes with me about villains whose entire motivation is "i wanna rule the universe and become a god" is that im just left wondering why? like if a character becomes a villain because theyve been hurt and want revenge or something i can get that but why would you even want to rule the world. whats the motivation behind that. it seems like it would be really stressful

#magpie thoughts #this is partially something im realizing about morando in 3below #most of the toa villains before him had been really 3D and interesting; like gunmar was pretty single-minded but #i always took that as him being the LITERAL PERSONIFICATION OF THE CORRUPTION THAT THE SURFACE WARS WROUGHT #and then bular just wants to be with his dad and angor has been manipulated for literal centuries #even colonel kubritz is kind of understandable with her whole wanting to protect earth from invaders shtick even if its like. aggressively #-prejudice and xenophobic. but then again thats like half of actual earth officials so thats not to unrealistic #BUT THEN you have morando. i feel like he wouldve been more interesting if his motives had more to do with him feeling injustice because of #-fialkov and coranda's shit ruling. and at first it kinda seems like thats the case! but no hes just a power hungry dick taking advantage of #the royals' shit ruling to get allies because he wants to rule the universe. like WHY #and then i kinda feel like the toa villains from there on out just get kinda. worse?#mainly the arcane order honestly #because their entire thing is hating humanity and wanting to remake the world or whatever #which is cool in THEORY but it never goes any deeper than that. WHY do you hate humanity what did they do to you. idk man #ANYWAYS #concluding my rant lol #toa #tales of arcadia
