Every story needs a villain. And my intention with this is to be able to provide that service for you, my lovely Starlight Academy community. Some of these characters tend towards darker, heavier themes, so buyer beware. And remember, even if you decide to plot with one of my less savory characters you can let me know at any time if you want me to ease up or drop the plot altogether. I want to make characters uncomfortable, not players. I'll add more as I expand my antagonistic repertoire.
Adalwolf Silvester
Penelope Pernicious
Bartholomew Woodman
Fitzroy Power
Adalwolf is a Scout working with the academy to bring new students from off island, to protect them from the Narrow Reality. He is also an unrepentant human hating bigot.
To Ada, humans are cattle who think too highly of themselves. The worst offenders are spellcasters, who steal magic from their betters to try and elevate themselves.
Ada can be an antagonist on two fronts. First, he can attempt to sway others to his way of thinking. Creating tension between humans and others (demons, undead, vampires, etc.) only benefits Ada's cause by giving him examples of how bad the humans really are. The organization known as Citizens Against Evil are one of his primary examples right now, but he is willing to utilize really any tactic to get other supernaturals to think like him.
Second, he can hunt your character. As a rule, he generally only hunts off island while he is on Scouting missions. The only times he breaks this rule is if he knows he won't be caught, either because he is hunting a human or he knows the person who he is hunting will not report his activity to the authorities.

Penelope Pernicious
Penelope is a potentially fun character to use because what she can do is limited really only to the imagination. She gets inside people's heads and messes around. Anything from terrorizing your dreams to stealing information from your head to straight up Freddy Kruger-ing you. Whatever brand of terror and frustration you want, Penelope can provide, and do so with an air of showmanship and bravado.
Bartholomew Woodman
Barty teaches magical defenses at Starlight Academy. He also subtly mind controls people to humiliate and demean them. This falls under a wide umbrella, from making them reveal embarrassing or terrible secrets about themselves to himself and potentially others all the way to using his magic suggestions to rape them. He is subtly misogynistic, who feel the major brunt of his ire and has a particular hatred for Selkie.
Students and other faculty are the easiest targets for him, but he can really worm his way into anyone's life.

Fitzroy Power
Fitz is a burglar, confidence artist, and general thief. He'll rob you blind and you might let him out the front door with a smile and a wave. On the flip side, Fitz can also be hired out to steal something from someone else. He himself isn't magical, but his crew is and if he has it his way you'll never know he's a normie.
