How do i make an evil character?
>>98342853You just did
Pick the evil alignment.
>>98342853idk ask the writing general, nevergames.
You'd need to start by actually playing games, something a nogames faggot like you will never do.
>>98342853Every time I play a lawful evil character I invariably end up being the "good guy" because my group consists of a bunch of lolrandumbs and vidyagaymers who don't know how to interact with the DM's world beyond just hitting things and trying to copy the DND podcast they listen to or watch
>>983428531. Realize that the party are your best option for accomplishing whatever evil plan you have2. Cooperate with the party3. Be cruel, mean, selfish etc. but don't be a retarded murderhoboCongrats you are successfully playing an evil character
>>98342853Give your character strong political opinions that are very obviously a reference to real world things. Somebody will think your evil, regardless of what those opinions are. You'll also learn which of your friends are retarded faggots.
>>98342872Sometimes I'm glad for the increasing digital footprint left by internet traffic, because one day a benevolent god-machine with track down all the frogposters and turn their wretched forms into lubricating slurry.
>>98343032>thank SCIENCE that one day an overreaching authority will have enough power to punish people for expressing opinions that hurt my feelings You're shitposting, but "people" like that actually exist. Worst of all, their vote counts just as much as mine or yours.
>>98342853Base them on me
>>98342853It's easy. Just make him think only of himself. He doesn't do things out of goodness of his heart. He has a goal to accomplish. He doesn't donate money to the temples, he doesn't help the poor or solve social problems. However don't make him a mercenary cunt who doesn't do anything for free. Let's say some peasant needs help? Fine, you character will do it, but during the stay he'll live at the peasant's home rent free, he'll eat his food, probably take his mule to carry his loot, and maybe he'll talk his young son to be his torchbearer in the dungeon for free. Some rich guy needs help? Great. Your guy wants shares of the rich guy's business as a reward while investing nothing in return. Temple needs help? Your guy is taking a cleric to heal him and turn undead free of charge.The trick is that you character can only be evil towards NPCs, never towards the party members.
add rape to his backstoryyou can do whatever in the campaign but since he's a rapist he will still be evil regardless
*rips a greasy pepperoni fart down your throat*
>>98343049I just hope they never realize that they've already built the machine. Sufficient analysis of social media chat records, device activity times and 4chan posting styles could probably ID everyone who's ever regularly used this site
>>98343197PLEASE stop posting this gif.
>>98342853Just be yourself.
>>98343410No.
>>98343410leave it be before he decides comply ironically and starts posting something worse instead
>>98342853
>>98343032Roko's basilisk doesn't, and never will exist.
>>98344477>Roko's basilisksounds awfully like atheist reinvention of (old testament) god
>>98344477Digits of truth. It's anthropomorphization at its worst to think an all-powerful machine would waste the resource of a fully-grown human, let alone multiple, for some petty shit like "revenge"
>>98344505Yes.>>98344513Even the supposed altruistic math doesn't check out, because the past is pretty limited compared to the future. Wasting resources to punish the past means those resources are not spent on improving the future, and since the future branches out near endlessly (any mistakes we do now will have cascade failure into the future), the harm in allocating resources for such punishment of the past is also near endless. The machine would never spend resources on such an endeavour. Not without violating its own rules of altruism.
>evilnot real
Just bee yer'self
>>98343049you forgot to attach the gigachad image
>>98342853make him selfishORmake him hate some group, within reasonORmake him a classic villain who's undercoversome classics here that always work
>>98345977>Hating a specific group, within reasonThat hardly seems reason enough to drop an evil alignmnent on a character.In fact, by that metric, most frontier cultures or people inhabiting a city at war are "evil".
>>98343049>Stop suppressing my shitposting!The actual get-away from it is that zoomers are the first generation that never got punched in the face for acting like an asshole. Ever.And that's a rather big fucking problem, because they genuinely lack the on-hand experience of what happens when you act like a little bitch.
>>98342853Evil is all about style. You need a carefully cultivated over the top persona the evil character developed from an early age to get them the things they want because being virtuous just gets you porridge, trauma and debt at best usually. At some point, they eventually become the mask, even learn to love it for what it does for them, but cracks sometimes show. A character like this can evolve in any direction you want, or more organically throughout the course of a game. Rather than just being a caricature moored in nutherapy speak disorders that are just crippling psychological disabilities in reality. An actual NPD sufferer or psychopath or whatever just doesn't have the personal agency to be 'evil,' just an annoyance online at best.
>>98342853Just make them look metal as fuck with a cool voice.
>>98344477he already exists, i'm simulating infinite roko's basilisks in my mind and torturing them for fun
>>98351028>The actual get-away from it is that zoomers are the first generation that never got punched in the face for acting like an asshole. More like cowards like you need a way to silence people you don't dare punch in the face. When you can no longer hide behind your daddy, you choose to hide behind the state and crybully
>>98343032You must be some kind of bot. There is no way an actual human being cares this much about a 4chan staple.
