Androgynous means having qualities of both sexes, not having the qualities of neither, bruv.

Now that's just nonsense. A good silhouette is considered necessary to any character, villains especially.

>A good silhouette is considered necessary to any character, villains especially.
That's about distinguishing characters from one another, not about conforming to a certain look. A character isn't a villain because they look a certain way - any design can be used as a villain. They're a villain because of the things they DO.

You got it all wrong, OP:

Either the people involved make the game "fun and interesting" - no matter how gay you are - or you just touch yourself while trying to troll 4chan.
>>
>>45539551
Every aspect of a character should build towards them. If two villains act identically to each other, but one's dressed in bloodforged black plate and the other trails angelic robes behind them, their presence and the worlds reaction to them should be appropriately different.

Characterization is more than what you tell.

How do you go about making fun and interesting spells?

While we're on the topic, I've seen plenty of feminine or androgynous male villains, but pretty much none of the opposite. Why are there no masculine/boyish female villains?
>>
>>45543851

Because dykes are hideous.
>>
>>45543851
making alternative women evil would be "sexist"

was it some Paizo developer who had some bullshit crisis of conscience because he wrote a donut steel trans woman as the villain and didn't want the first trans character in the game to be evil?

Because transgender women look awful, and they'd be beaten especially hard. I mean, it's not like I'm going to hold back from gay-bashing, but I suppose it sends the wrong image if your players are gleefully gutterstomping a proud womyn.

I don't think these people know what they're doing, actually. It's like the new Assassin's Creed game with female guards, which - instead of diversity - allows me to cunt-stab them and beat them to death with my cane like the truest patrician.
>>

Make as many crude jokes about human sexuality as you can. Alternately, if there's a girl with pink or blue hair at your table, make the villain genderfluid and have an eldritch power that causes human genitals to grow wherever he or she desires.

The ultimate goal is actually to have someone pull a knife on you at the table.
>>
>>45546306
No that's diversity alright, being able to stab members of all races and sexes.

The look and move effeminately, they act like villains should and are less stereotypical in their actual personalities while being really good at what they do and make it liable for them to actually succeed, or in other words, force the players to take them fucking seriously.

Mind saying Why?

Onto the Main topic, if your villain is based on sexually nonconforming imagery, contrast it with the heroes? Think about Rocky Horror Picture Show, and what it meant for the residents to be as trangressive as they were, in contrast to the main characters. If you're making it a theme, stick to it; consistence can only make things better.

>>
>>45555533
you're wrong. I love chara. that's why I know they aren't the one responsible. Though it's pretty genius work to take someone who did very little wrong and turn them into the greatest villain just by reputation. I had to recommend them.

>>
>>45556133
Yeah, but it's not as fun if I don't get the credit for my terrible crimes against humanity and monsterkind. Goddamn Chara stealing my infamy.
>>
>>45556018
>That other chucklefuck had nothing to do with it.
He was one who put you in charge in the first place. You just done his bidding not even realising it.
>>
>>45556181
So you're saying I should fuck with the game's code to reset everything, then go full pacifist? Because I'm willing to go that far just to spite a fictional character.
>>
>>45556175
Maybe so, but the whole point is for Chara to be an easy person to heap all your sins onto even though they never encouraged you to kill one time. In a way, it's the audience that's the real villain, refusing their crimes and placing them on the shoulders of a sacrificial jesus figure.
>>
>>45556133
That pic and the whole aesthetics behind it are way 2edgy4me.

>>45556181

I doubt they wanted monsters to die, seeing as they killed themselves slowly, painfully, for their sake. And besides, in genocide runs, you make them think they want that.

Though if you take the idea that chara is good, it doesn't explain why flowey thought of them as a ruthless edgy killer from the start.

Much of undertale feels like it went through some serious rewrites and Toby's post hoc tweets don't help that argument
>>
>>45556181 Nah I see what >>45556175 means though. Putting it all onto Chara kinda forgives the player for any wrong doing.

It at the very least implies that You as a player are free from guilt because Chara made you do it. the devil made me do it
>>45556287 Makes a good point.

I think Chara was always meant as the true Player Character though, so while Frisk was being manipulated and killed everyone, YOU were manipulating them and killing everyone. You are Chara in the genocide run, inside and out.
>>
>>45556328
Chara isn't good, they planned at minimum to kill 6 humans. They are basically the anticrist. their Sacrificial death could have damned the world. Depending on the players actions through frisk, they very well still could.

But despite their looming darkness and hatred for humanity, they where never the villain, they where someone who wanted to save their adopted family from their race's crimes against them.

>>45556374
If you want to go by weight of evidence, Chara is most certainly not the player. They already influence frisk's actions practically the entire game for good. But in the end it's all ambiguous to some extent, so you can keep blaming chara if you like. but at least for you, you aren't trying to escape your sins at the same time, because to you, they and you are the same
