# If I am out and about in my SecretIdentity, and TheHero comes out from nowhere to try to beat me up for my acts, I must enact WoundedGazelleGambit. The people will turn on ''him'' while he tries to tell them [[CassandraTruth the truth]], and better, if recorded, will go a ''long'' way to discredit TheHero as a person who harms innocent people.

# If I am a Dungeons and Dragons villain, buy or steal that new book written by the witch known as Tasha. It has the means to make my mooks more powerful, especially the lower ranked ones. After that, acquire the other books, for the appropriate edition of Dungeons and Dragons of course.

# I will never invade Russia... unless my name ends in [[UsefulNotes/{{Mongolia}} Khan.]] Likewise, I will not use my land armies in China unless my name ends in Khan. That being said, I should also note that, even if my surname meets both conditions, nobody said either venture would be easy.

# If I need to buy supplies or expertise from a third party, I will pay them fairly instead of ripping them off or murdering them the moment the job is done. Such things may save me money in the short term, but once word gets around or people notice that my subcontractors are never seen again, nobody will want to do business with me anymore.

# If possible, never harm the Innocent.
# If I, or my scientists, have created a creature, and it has escaped, and has gone on a killing spree, and the Expert Hunter I've hired tells me that we'd be better off killing it instead of capturing it, I'll admit that the guy has a point. The orders will be Capture if Possible, Kill if Necessary.
# Likewise, when hunting down an escaped creature, safety of the locals and hikers and such take priority over the creature.

# Unless it’s actually raining, snowing, or some other natural weather phenomenon is occurring, my forces will be ordered to immediately fire upon any suspicious individuals wearing hoods, especially if they start trying to do some parkour. Heroes think wearing a hood perfectly disguises them, so they’ll be pretty easy to spot from a mile out if they keep their hoods on. Likewise, Visitors and citizens who suffer from albinism or leucism will instead be provided with free umbrellas to use instead of hoods to protect them from the sun’s UV radiation, that they can pickup at a local information kiosk, one of the many I shall have constructed every few city blocks to keep people appraised of any changes to this policy, and never conveniently forget it. People who choose to wear their hoods up out of some sense of personal fashion will be politely asked to remove the hood, only wear it during appropriate times or at home, and then be immediately executed if they continue to resist.

# If there is something unique about the location of my evil lair that [[GPSEvidence can make its location be deduced by soil samples, plant matter or other debris that can accumulate on my clothing/equipment by spending time there and then fall off at a crime scene]], I will relocate to a more anonymous location unless there is some specific reason why I need to be operating out of that general area.

# Actually, instead of quadruple pay, I’ll stick to a standard Christmas bonus. There’s being festive, and then there’s just throwing money away. Quadruple pay for the holidays can be negotiated for the year one of my minions brings me the head of my greatest enemy, however. Assuming I’m not my own worst enemy, but that’s why I’m reading this list, isn’t it?

# Also, after diving for cover, double check to see if I got an extra hole in my body. Those things can be annoying, especially ones through my head or heart.
# If I do find that extra hole in a lethal spot, make damn sure the Hero isn't going to walk away either. I might be dead, but I'll be damned before someone brags about killing me.
