Someone else’s Proper Villany…

I was doing my normal morning RSS reading and saw that Yax over at DungeonMastering posted a fantastic (and incredibly concise) DM’s Guide to Uber-Villians. There’s a LOT of good material in a very small space in this article, and has given me a bunch of seeds to use in my future campaigns.

It strikes me that I often don’t use minons enough, or effectively. That will probably be one of the first areas that I flesh out for my next Big Bad.

For those of you looking for our own take on being bad, feel free to have a look at Vanir’s Proper Villany series. I’ve got some random notes on how I tend to handle evil characters, I will gather those up soon and perhaps add my two cents worth on the topic.
