This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I used ÜNE, the Universal NPC Emulator, by Zach Best to flesh out Victor de Vannier Comte de Laudancourt, the NPC I named using the name links in my post. A write-up of the process is in the H+I thread.

Most of them are really broad. That's what I like about them. Covert Ops has a villain generator for example with a list of different villain motivations. I don't roll them, but I like skimming through such a list, because there are always options I didn't think off between them. Revenge, power or greed are things I would think off, but curiosity or equality are things I didn't think off as a villain motiovation.

So it's broad and practical.
May I say that? Yes, I may say that!
