@scribeist: Here are some ideas or inspiration on how to introduce a villain. Join us on Scribeist! #writertok #BookTok #writerscommunity #writinginspiration #fantasybooktok
One of my favorite things a villain does is never lie and is always honest one of my favorites lines in the show young justice it is said a handful of times “ras Al ghul is many things but a liar isn’t one of them”

Have them do a noble deed. Not for Valor but for control…. Then show how they keep it

My personal favourite villain introduction scene is Lalo’s in BCS. “Don’t even worry, it’s gonna be like I’m not even here”

or
don't tell who is the villain and when the story continues... there is a shock moment when the MC is revealed to be the villain 🙃🙃
like in the "good place" when they show that Michael is the villain...

I would be like dude seriously, let me guess after I defeat you or you defeat me they would hit the fans with a sad backstory and everyone would forget you killed thousands of people isn't it? The villain speechless

Great way to make a villain that feels interesting is to not give them a completely opposite goal. Have a villain with the exact same goal as the group. Just a very very different way of doing it. Depending on the group you can always tweak it a little, either a serious "I will fix the world by any means necessary" Thanos type of guy, or a friendly NPC companion who just doesn't share the same morals as the group (bonus points if they're actually needed to stop whatever cosmic threat is happening this week), ranging from "man that's kinda fucked up what you just did" to "maybe the world isn't really worth saving that much if this guy is going to be part of it"
