The Big Bad may either be personally responsible for the events, or the biggest force in opposition of the hero's goals. A Big Bad could be a character with Evil Plans or it could be an omnipresent situation, such as a comet heading towards the Earth. In a serial story, the Big Bad often exerts an effect across a number of episodes, and even an entire season. In a standalone cinematic story, their presence drives the plot. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ... Copied to Clipboard!

Fair warning, there are a TON of options out there for Big Bads so I fully get there being a bunch of different votes here. Just personally it's gonna be hard to limit it down

so here's my initial choices, but they'll probably be subject to change as I think of more, because I'm not prowling through every option on that damn trope page

Bigby Wolf is this a "big bad wolf" joke or am I just really misinformed about Fables? --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs ... Copied to Clipboard!
