Fan Casting Villain Protagonist

Role added by caitlinfrost on September 8, 2022

Make Suggestion

Description of Villain Protagonist:

An interesting twist on conventional storytelling: make the bad guy, or a bad guy, the main character. Sometimes (but not always), this villainous main character will even get the Sympathetic P.O.V.. On the other hand, it is not necessary for a villain to be sympathetic for them to be this trope. They simply need to be a villain whose morally reprehensible actions (however well-intentioned) are in no way glossed over or justified within the context of the story. We are seeing the story from a villain's point of view.
