Favorite Villain? *possible spoilers*

Post by torsion »

Ok in this thread say who your favorite villain is, or least favorite. What kind of enemy do you hate the most? Who do you like the most, would you want to become allies with them and be evil?

So heres an example. My favorite villain is Yxonomei. I like her because shes so badass epecially when she says "I am Yxunomei. I am a soldier." The voice acting for that line was so cool and when I heard it i almost jumped out of my seat! However, I also have some hated enemies: Aurilites and Myconids. I hated it so much when the Myconids in Upper Dorns used their spores to make my characters go berzerk. I also hate Aurilites because of their cold damage, even though they show up rarely in the game.

So tell me your favorite/hated villain in the game! :D

I hate Beholders, but that could also be just a complex from BG2.

White Dragons, I love how the old games made em a lot more challenging than the ones coming out now.

I think Poquelin(sp) is the best villain in the game. I really liked the dialog line where you can mention about the villain being controlled. But there is a lot of nice dialog in the game, and some of it needs specific characters or attributes to trigger.
I'd rather be part bull than a complete sheep.

Favourite enemy: anything that goes *chunk* when I kill it ( sorry, I'm shallow that way )

Least favourite enemies: Myconids, because the sound they make makes my teeth hurt.

Yeah, I have to agree, Yxunomei is my favourite villain - she looks cool as well.

I despise Myconids.

Yxunomei for me as well. That fight is my favorite in the whole game. Your party is just getting to the point of being dangerous, average around 7th level, but not so bad that a little surprise won't wake you up. Of course with the right preparations you can win fairly handily, but the first time through when you don't know what's coming, ahh, different story. I was completely caught flat footed when that "little girl" morphed into Yxunomei. I knew that girl wasn't what she seemed but.....

Well it was a rolling, rollicking fight and several times I was thinking the whole party's going down. Seemed like every time I turned around more undead kept getting summoned in. I went through most of the extra healing potions and used about every spell every character had but managed to win without anyone getting killed. Flew totally by the seat of my pants on that one. Had a blast.

Yes, yes. Fave IWD villain. A tough one.

Yxonomei's top-heaviness appeals to me, as does Seth's midgetry.

It really depends my current fetish.
