Poll: Would you rather be a villain, hero, or side-kick?

[Jedoro]

I don't have time for full-time heroics... I have science to do.

Also, the definition of a hero: Someone who gets other people killed.

You can look it up later.

OT: Villain, because people could argue that anti-heroes aren't heroes and I'd want to be one of them. Not all villains are "evil," some are just trying to do whatever they want despite society's rules. So if villains have more freedom than heroes, sign me up.

villain.
ususally fighting for a good cause, such as making the entire world one country with a government which actually has the capability to act (swiftly) instead of endless debating in parliaments and one-country-against-the-other politics, they are honest about their motives.

also, they tend to be much cooler than the (supposed) goody-two-shoes

the definition of a hero: Someone who gets other people killed.

hooray for Serenity-reference ^^

 

[The Virgo]

The villain, of course.

The villain gets away with a lot more and, if someone should give you trouble, you just send out your henchmen to eradicate them.

 

[Versuvius]

Villain. Id wear the Warlords armour from the Book of Vile Darkness, with orphans chained to it to soak the blows of my foes as i lay waste to them with my mighty hammer and potent spells

Cant a guy dream?

 

[KoalaKid]

Kinda sad that most people would be a villain. I would be a Robin hood type anti-hero.

Yeah, where's the anti-hero option. I wouldn't be a maniacal villain, but I wouldn't be the most heroic guy around either. Plus, last I checked, the world is filled with shades of grey.

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

I'd be a villain.

I've been told that when I grin and laugh it sounds and looks very evil, so I have that part down!

The villain, of course.

Exactly. Why get your hands dirty when you have disposable henchmen at your bidding!

 

[airrazor7]

Where is the option for Anti-Hero? That is probably where I would fit. I would pursue my own agendas yet I wouldn't go out of my way for unnecessary fights. However, villain or hero, I would fight anyone who would be a threat that got in my way.

I would only dabble in heroics if a large population of people, like that of a town, country or the world were threatened because a villain with that much power would be a problem for me as well. I also wouldn't want to deal with other heroes' hang ups about not killing villains. Heroes don't get there hands dirty, anti-heroes do.

 

[Titan Buttons]

I'd be a hero, because while being evil is really fun, I like to help people.

 

[gostlyfantom]

I would be the sidekick, I have no desire to be the hero and get all the atention and guilt is a *****.

Absolutely! Of course, most times henchmen are incompetent, so sometimes you do have to get your hands dirty. But being a villain gives one a lot more options. For example, to extract information from someone, a good guy would have to use hypnotism or some other "goodie-goodie" bullshit like that.

A villain could do like the Germans did in World War 2 and, if they refuse to cooperate, simply shove a small glass rod down their dick and break it in there so they piss glass the rest of their life. Or you could built a giant meat-grinder and toss them in there if they don't cooperate and then sell the meat to the orphanage.

Or yeah, I would make a great evil-doer! >:-]

 

[Captain_Fantastic]

i got the laugh i got the voice i got the top hat im workin on the mustache im workin for the villian side

 

[NotSoLoneWanderer]

I would be a villain that runs a secret shadow corporation with ties to everything from government and weapons to toothbrushes and hangers. We wouldn't be evil per se but we would have a few monopolies in several industries and buy large shares of competitors eventually buying them out. Once we control everything we won't do what makes of evil corporations fail. We would keep prices low and fair along with an excellent customer service department.

Ve have veys of making you talk.

That's all part of the villain mastermind package. Planning ahead and when shit really hits the fan, you blow the place up with the heroes still inside and fly out of the place in a jet.

The henchmen and number two guy?

Pfft. They are replaceable, and you never mention what happened to them when they ask. If they do, just say, "They died from being stupid and incompetent" and move on like nothing ever happened.

 

[demoman_chaos]

Evil, but unlike most evils I'd just use a sniper rifle to take out the hero from a safe distance. Lure him out with promises of cake and cocaine and then give him an extra hole in his head. No overly elaborate slow moving death traps in my arsenal. All all else fails, blublub charge (run at full speed screaming with tongue out or "BLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLBULUBLUB") with my axe.

 

[moosek]

I'd want to be a hero. It's more my nature to help people. Comic books tend to put things in moral terms that don't exist in real life.

 

[WolfThomas]

I would probably either be a heroic villain or villainous hero.

Heroic villain my goals would always be for the better of mankind, like an Ozimandas or Dr Doom when he's in a generous mood. I might try to conquer it, but only for stability. I'd avoid casualities and be a very nice employer to my henchmen, who'd all get good pay, training and benefits.

Or I'd be a Hero who's kind of a jerk. I'd work for the government and save people, but use money from interviews and toys to live in luxury, bang groupies, do whatever I want etc. I'd withhold and lie about the full extent powers from my handlers just so I have an out in case I ever get into too much trouble.

 

[Kargathia]

Villain. You get the evil lair, lots of dedicated minions, and are the only one not judged for their actions.

I also hear the insurance is quite good.

 

[SixWingedAsura]

Villain, DUH.

They have more fun, get cooler toys, aren't tied down by all that morality bullshite and if you're good enough and intelligent enough...

YOU GET TO WIN!

 

[StormShaun]

Hero.

I have been saying this for a long time, I would become the Angel Of Lightning and destroy ALL EVIL!!

All good comes from being a hero.
