Listen Later

Villains, from mid-level baddies to your big bad, the rules of introduction are pretty much the same.  You’ve spent a lot of time working on your antagonists, you’ve got to give them a proper introduction.

 

These are the talking points.

  • MAKE THEIR INTRODUCTION BIG.
  • THEIR MOTIVATION SHOULD BE VERY CLEAR.
  • MAKE THEM LIKABLE.
  •  
  • THEY SHOULD BE MORE THAN JUST EVIL, ONE DIMENSIONAL VILLAIN ARE BORING.
  •  
  • LET YOUR PLAYERS KNOW THEY ARE A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH RIGHT FROM THE JUMP.
