The Villain Whitewashing Service is where you take some MisaimedFandom, add a lot of DracoInLeatherPants, a hint of BunnyEarsLawyer and/or {{Flanderization}}, a small chunk of BadassDecay, and you make your favorite villain sound like a pretty decent but incredibly misunderstood guy. List your examples under your [[Administrivia/TVTropesGlossary Troper]] name, alphabetically, and hide the answers using [[spoiler: spoilers]]. Please include the story your character is from[[note]]i.e. Darth Vader, ''Franchise/StarWars''[[/note]], [[FanMyopia no matter how popular it is.]]

Compare DarthWiki/WorseThanItSounds. Contrast DarthWiki/PaintTheHeroBlack.
