Adding Complex Morality to Whumper/Villains

Complex morality can be really difficult to conjure, because as humans we can’t help but hold bias to morals. Some of us struggle more to make a heroic figure on truly good/lawful terms. Some of us struggle with the exact opposite like me. Here are some things that easily add complexity to moral situations for sadistic, evil, and/or villainous characters.

Character is a loving family member/parent figure for their double-sided life

Character’s actions are starting to wear morally on them, but their ego is still too high to do something to make change

Another character has forced the character into this path (remember this rarely ever reforms or excuses character’s actions)

Character’s actions are a retaliation of mistreatment or oppression in the past

Despite all of their actions, they are a loving compassionate kind partner to someone else

They genuinely believe their actions are for the greater good

People around character see them as an amazing figure

Character was raised to be the way they are

Character is actively working a strong overbearing force that they cannot easily get out of (governments, militaries, organizes, spyforce)

Insecurities pushed Character

Character is being mind controlled or possesses

Some of Character’s morals are on the greater spectrums (isn’t a bigot, won’t harm children, strong advocate for equal rights)

Character helps other characters previously or for temporary moments

Character is beginning to second guess their actions

Character is on the verge of realizing how horrible they are

Certain people are let go or spared by character for unknown reasons

Character has standards

So you know how the hit-people in John Wick have the Continental, and it's like a safe place for them to relax and its neutral ground, that's what I want in some superhero related world, like a safe place where the villains/anti-heroes can enter and eat or relax or talk to someone, and heroes are welcome too, but like they aren't allowed to fight the villains because its neutral ground and anyone who breaks the rules faces consequences.

Some of those anti-heroes/villains need it. They need a safe place where they dont have to constantly look over their shoulder and worry about being killed.

The Psychology of Villains: Creating Memorable Antagonists

In the captivating tapestry of storytelling, villains are the shadows that dance across the pages, casting darkness and conflict that breathe life into the narrative. Crafting a memorable antagonist is a delicate art, one that requires an understanding of the psychology that makes villains not just formidable but compelling. In this exploration of the psychology of villains, we will dissect the…

“If you dare to write about less-than-charming characters, you don’t need to redeem them with an ending in which they see the error of their ways, mend their faults, and allow their flinty hearts to be transformed into a choir loft of goodness…Fiction can, and should, mimic life, with all it’s messes and discomfort and disquiet. Fiction should also prove just how complicated and troubled many people are.”

Hősök és antihősök

Nem vagyunk a világ hősei. Egy jól kiépített nyugati országban gyalogolunk napi 20-25 km-t. 5km-ént kávézó, étterem ilyen olyan pihenőhely. Őseink kétszer ennyit is mentek. Mi vagyunk a világ hősei gondoljuk magunkról pedig csak a magunk hősei vagyunk. Vagy még azok sem. Azon elmélkedtem ma milyen is lenne úgy felöltözni olyan lábbeliben, egy váltáskával végigmenni egy ilyen úton ahogyan a középkorban tették.. Maximum egy bőrszandál egy vászonzsák az oldalon.. Nem egy mérnökök álltal tervezett hátizsák v cipő és nem kávé, péksütemény és kulacs.. érdemes ezen gondolkodni? .. nem.. mi a magunk hősei vagyunk. Még azok is valamennyire aki csomag nélkül ( előre viszik nekik) szervezett csoportként ballagnak .. mindenhol kávé péksütemény és kóla.. ma egy kicsi megértettem miért nem a világ hősei vagyunk.. kicsit inkább annak akarunk látszani mások elött..

Heroes an Anti Heroes

We are not the heroes of the world. We walk 20-25 km a day in a well-developed western country. Every 5 km, there is a cafe, a restaurant, a place to rest. Our ancestors went twice as far. We think of ourselves as the heroes of the world, but we are only our own heroes. Or even those. Today I was thinking about what it would be like to dress up in such footwear, to walk along a road like that in the Middle Ages with one shift.. A maximum of one pair of leather sandals and a canvas bag on the side.. Not a backpack or shoes designed by engineers and not coffee, pastries and a water bottle.. it's worth it to think about it? .. no.. we are our own heroes. Even those who go without a package (it is brought to them in advance) leave as an organized group .. coffee, pastries and cola everywhere .. today I understood a little why we are not the heroes of the world .. we want to appear as such in front of others ..

If this is your main villain, you need to replace them with a new…
