I'd be the kind of boss where you think you've beaten me, but after the credits role I'm shown to actually be alive, and so you'll fight me in the sequel game! And this happens... over... and over... and over... and... well you get the point.

I'd be the comic relief boss. The really easy one that keeps coming back to fight, and has stupid and funny dialogue.

I would be one of those secret bosses that is even harder to kill than the final boss to get to me the hero would have to find 7 key items (dragon balls maybe) and when he does they will open a portal to a dark version of the game world where the monsters and bosses are stronger and there will be areas that are almost impossible to go through because of some handicap like being poisoned or not allowed to use spells and if the hero reaches my tomb/shrine/beach house he will have to answer a 200 question quiz on the game before fighting me

I've atcually spent some time thinking on a game storyline featuring myself as a bad guy.
The main outline is as follows:
The game is a 3d person shooter / rpg in a dystopic future. There is a war raging between humans and a genetecly modified, cyberneticly enhanced human offshoot. The player would be on the "pure" human side wich is oppressing the cyborg race. I (or my npc counterpart) would be an ally/mentor to the PC. Somewhere in the middle I would, during a cutscene, be in the messhall onboard a spaceship, the PC sitting at a tabe, myself standing behind the PC at a coffee machine. I would then, unprovoked and seemingly random pull out a dagger and sever the PC's brainstem, killing him/her instantly and flee the ship.
The player will then have to create a new character on the cyborg side and meet me having just escaped the human spaceship. I would explain that I'm the "creator" of the cyborg race by experimenting with cybernetics on myself.
My experiments had the unexpected side effect of extending my lifespan almost infintly.
I would thus be older then the war itself, or somwhere around 753 years old.
As a result of my age, I'm an absolute genious, because of the time I've had available to learn things, and a bit crazy.
The campaign would then take a complete U-turn as it will play out for the cyborg side instead.
The first mission after the turn would be to secure an experiment to further enhance the DNA.
The problem is that the experiments are on a planet that's no on the frontline.
Upon sucess the story would progress to a point where the genetic enhancements had all the positive effects forseen, but also the unforseen side effect of making only 1 of 500 births male.

And thats as far as I got, then the grim realisation that I have 4 exams within a month hit me so I'll have to continue later.
Any oppinions?

You see, my prime villain character is an evil spirit, as in an ancient creature of the astral plane who manifests in the corporeal to do his badass business. The "Oh Shit!" Meter buries the needle when you learn I'll be back in about three month's time, and I won't be happy.
And i wont be happy hahahaha :D
great boss . . . open door for sequel :D

Id like to be a summoner. Swarming the players with dozens of my minions. And then upon defeating them just "vanishing" leaving a tip for the whereabouts of the next bad guys whos more important than me. . . cuz u see i too dont wanna die :D

I'd be a final boss, and I'd use revolvers!

And every time my bullets hit you'd be knocked back and I'd be super accurate. And after you hit me and did damage I'd leap/jump away to another location and begin the attack again from there.
And before you would finally defeat me, a button mashing + quick time event would be involved.

I would be Bob, an evil so awesome that the way to defeat me is by knocking over my punch bowl. My favorite henchmen, number 4, is invulnerable to all attacks, strong as hell, dumb as a post, loyal to me and he would be doing all of my dirty work for me.

I would also be on level 3 or 4. I want players to experience how awesome I am after facing some harder battles from less stellar opponents.

I would be an extremely fast character. My speed is basically to the point of teleportation. In short, I'd be able to move faster than the naked eye can see from a standing position and I can stop on the head of a pin (since a dime is too big). I'd also carry a dagger, with the ability to drain the life of the hero and his party (if there is a party) and a greatsword. While the greatsword would seem to be the greater threat, since its larger weight doesn't really affect my speed, the dagger is actually the prime threat since I'd use it whenever I get to about 50% hp to fully heal myself via superspeed slashes on the hero(s).

The only way to beat me would be to somehow nullify my speed by nonmagic means (since my speed would be nonmagical and therefore not affected by anti-magic). This speed would also give me some pretty cool acrobatic abilities basically making every area of the boss room, or area if outside, reachable (flying archers won't be untouchable to me).

Normally I wouldn't use my full speed until the hero hit me for the first time or until I see that someone in the group has AoE (AoE users would be the first target since they'd normally be fairly weak, physically, and I could easily cut them down before they knew what would happen). Also, any cheatcodes the player would use would also be attributed to me, which means any codes that give them invincibility give me invincibility. And since the hero has to live through to the cutscene any codes that would kill them would just waste their time (no suicide and hope for the cutscene).

If I had to choose a play style for this game I'd have to say a third person RPG that would have a combat system similar to a combination of Devil May Cry (ramped up a few exponential values) and Infinite Undiscovery (Camera angle and party system). Also, I'd like the aim of the game to be more on a focus of being a great hero and not some sort of crusade against evil. If the game were like this, then my character could be the lazy yet reliable guy that just seems to hang about and do nothing, this does not mean his deeds and ability are unknown.

Also, upon winning, I would simply wave the hero(s) off and go back to sleep wherever I was. If they somehow win, then I would basically do the same thing except say good job (Some larger organization would take care of the final cutscene).

I would be the hired gun that the main villian pays to get his job done, so when the hero defeats me (with great difficulty, you have to be good to get hired by the big bad) I will give the convincing argument of "I have a family to feed!" (althoug I problably doesn't) and then come after the big bad in the end.

Me? I'd be the status effect nightmare. You know, the one that isn't very strong physically, but i wreck you with some ridiculous move that cripples you and your friends.

I'd be an extreme badass wearing awsome black clothes with an awesome name and I'd use dual weapons (swords, guns, etc) and perform very fast and awesome combos.

The only way I can be beaten would be to dodge my fast attacks until my opponent cheap-shot's me a few times.

I'd probably be as hard as a Ninja Gaiden boss.

I'd be the mid boss you fight on a cliff side and when you've just about won boom unknown explosion blows the cliff off the side of the mountain taking everyone with it to the bottom of a canyon. And you'll never know if I died or got away just to come after you later.

I'd be a mid-boss. Like, I'd show up and you'd be all, "Oh shit, the boss!"

So like, you try to look busy, but I know that you're just screwing off because you didn't file your reports on time this week. I'd come over and be like, "Hey Steve, I'm going to need a good reason not to fire you." Then you'd be all, "Zomg my family of six needs foods!"

I'd proceed to tell you to go to the final boss's chamber, and you'd be fired rather quickly. I'd then go have a nap and a hummer in my nice corner office where I do just enough work to look productive without actually having to work myself to death. Goood times.
