How deep can a hero be? (IMO) much deeper than a villian, who is usually wrapped up in him/herself. With villians it's usually all about "me". (boring) Something "really bad" happened, (first sick third of a sicko story! ) and turned them down the "Dark Path" years ago. Now we shall be entertained by the shock and "horror" that has come from the deep wound in the twisted tortured mind.(yawn). The villian goes Mwhaaa haa haa, and still isn't happy. Oh the perverted sicko, whatever will he do now. Oh the horror, the "titillation"! (yawn) Can we have a big group "EWWWWWW"!

Or someone who truly believed that if the heroes triumphed, their entire race/nation would be enslaved or killed? This isn't an unrealistic situation; there are some countries where people are held in ignorance by their governments. In this case, they are trying to defend their (probably) already miserable lives from getting even worse. How about someone who is a slave, and is only fighting for the villain to win freedom for his family? Okay, now picture that slave as the deadly assassin. You've got a villain who isn't necessarily "all about 'me'." |

I have a slight interest in all things macabre. I wouldn't say I'm obsessed with it, but there are periods of time when I delve closer to an obsession than others. ::stares at black clothing and pinky holes:: Eh.
I'm hardly gothic, though at times I do lean toward liking that style. I do, however, greatly enjoy some of Poe's work, and Shakespeare's darker things, at times. My favorite Greek play is Antigone, which is fairly tragic. I'm also obsessed with the character Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights. Writing dark stories, ah, nothing new. I went through a period of time during my freshman year when my stories were chock full of symbolism and characters with suicidal tendencies. None of them ever killed themselves, though. My most recent dark story was written last August, and it had to do with a girl (named Antigone!) who was extremely odd and had talent for writing. Implied abuse was abound in the story, and you found out in the end that the actual reason the bills aren't being paid is because she killed her father while he was watching TV. Weird. What's stranger is I am actually a fairly average person. I've never attempted suicide, nor have I ever wanted to kill anyone. ::shrug:: I like happy things too.

I think that certain Mooters would disagree...
Occult is dark.

Is anybody here into BDSM? One of my best friends loves erotic asphyxiation...*shudder* I can't stand not being able to breathe, definitely not for me. But I must say, I love blood. It's pretty, and red, and warm, but it goes all sticky when it dries. It tastes good, too. I love Poe! The Pit and the Pendulum is my favorite Poe story...or The Cask of Amontillado. Mm, morbid authors...yum. For some reason, I don't normally read dark or angsty fanfics, although I have been known to write them. My favorite type of weather is gray, overcast, misty days, although I hardly ever dress in black, and none of my friends would describe me as a goth.

Yes indeedy; Poe rocks!
I agree, I love misty weather, though it doesn't have anything to do with dark side; more the mysterious/magical/mystical appearance it gives. I can really imagine a misty stand of trees is a faerie wood. BDSM?

BDSM = Bondage-Sadomasochism. Yuck, I hate that.
I do like angst, I derive some kind of pleasure from reading and writing it. I think I will have to read some Poe stories now.

In other words, enjoying dealing and receiving pain while being bound. I'll pass.
