Here. It’s about immortality, but a lot of it can still be applies to old characters.

kill the current notion of villains needing to be human at the end of the day.

bring back villains that killed because they enjoyed blood on their hands.

give me villains that destroy cities because of boredom.

give me narcissistic villains that destroy others because they never compare to themselves.

give me bad guys that no one wants to empathise with.

write the ending

write a sex scene

use a scene prompt
