Villain or Dick? Part 2

Continuing my Villain or Dick series, yay.

Villain: Zeikfried - Wild ARMs
Known for: A demon leader along with Harken, Alhazad, and Berserk, later Boomerang, wants to awaken Mother.
Verdict: Villain
Explanation: Well when you have ambitions to awaken a demon mother, well it should be obvious that you should know what your demon mother originally wanted. Where you want conquest, your mother wants total destruction. So then he turns on his demon mother in an ambitious way and rallies the main heroes against her so that he and his demon faction can conquer. Good, villainous villain here.

Villain: Odessa - Wild ARMs 2
Known for: An organization who wishes to rule Filgaia
Verdict: Judecca is a dick, but the rest are villains for many different reasons.
Explanation: Judecca is an assassin for the group, but has barely any regard for humans, as evidence by him killing a prison warden without much in reason. He basically doesn't have much going for him in villainy. Vinsfeld, the leader, is a textbook ambitious conquerer, with at least two other Cocytus members in love with him (although Antenora of these two is a vastly different villain for a different reason), while his other general Ptolomea is more of an actual general who looks after his men. So it stands reason that these members are mostly villains.

Villain: Prophets - Wild ARMs 3
Known for: Attempting to reshape Filgaia in their own image with help from metal demons.
Verdict: Dicks
Explanation: The problem with their ambitions is that they obviously don't care who suffers. Being corrupted because of Beatrice's actions causing the explosion that killed most of the Council of Seven actually may be the real reason they're dicks though. It's sad that this game is good, but we see too much dickery in the villains here, even Siegfried.

Villain: Composer - The World Ends With You
Known for: Being the all-powerful being that runs Shibuya, the setting of the game, alongside the Conductor
Verdict: Dick
Explanation: Not gonna spoil who the composer is in this game, but there is a stark difference between the Composer's goals and the Conductors. At least the Conductor, despite brainwashing nearly all of Shibuya, wants to preserve it, while the Composer wants to outright destroy it. Different ambitions, destruction is worse than conquest though.

Villain: Oersted - Live-A-Live
Known for: Shining knight who you play as in the second-to-last chapter and watch his story unfurl.
Verdict: Villain
Explanation: I mean come on. You play as this guy and his companions, watch as a companion dies and another separated, come home, watch him accidentally kill a king, then ousted as a demon, then set off to find that girl for some redemption, betrayed by the best friend AND the girl. Sure, he destroys the medieval land, but in his case he just watched his heroism crumble and it's completely justifiable for any action he does.

Villain: Bishop Ladja - Dragon Quest V
Known for: Originally known as Gema, he is a notorious follower of Nimzo
Verdict: Dick
Explanation: Bear in mind I'm basing this off of Ladja, not Gema. Still though, with many of DQ5's signature scenes showing huge problems for the hero, no one can forget when he uses the protagonist as a shield to prevent Pankraz from attacking Ladja, then setting his corpse ablaze. What a dick.

Villain: Luc - Suikoden III
Known for: Wielder of True Wind Rune, playable character in first three games.
Verdict: Villain
Explanation: This is a guy who you play as with minimal plot relevance for the most part in the first two games, but you get to understand his goals in the third. Although it would take the entire game with all stars recruited to really get the picture, this is a guy who's looking to prevent some sort of ultimate balance that would leave the planet lifeless. His plan of course comes into conflict with other true rune bearers, and he takes those runes as well, but his extremism had hope spots.

Villain: Graham Cray - Suikoden IV
Known for: Being the "Merchant of Death", former bearer of the Rune of Punishment who cut his hand off to escape it.
Verdict: Villain
Explanation: The only explanation for him attempting to get the rune back is to reunite with his already dead son. Having to incite wars and conquer places was a part of his plan, but he wasn't entirely as hellbent as some dicks.
