* Lampshaded in Eliezer Yudkowsky's short story "Failed Utopia #4-2." It's said that the AI "might as well have been wearing a sign saying 'VILLAIN'." It's implied that this is because the AI was programmed to be honest.
Added DiffLines:
* ''Literature/LoomingGaia'': Overlord Morgause of the Unseelie Court [[RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver dresses in black and red]], [[NoIndoorVoice dramatically shouts everything she says]], practices cannibalism, [[BloodCountess drinks elf blood]], and is amused by death and carnage. Literally everything about her screams "evil", so it's no surprise that she also steals souls from her subjects to extend her life, abused her divine ex-husband and killed him multiple times, raises zombies to fight or have orgies for her entertainment, and keeps endangered sprights imprisoned and tries to force them to breed.
Added DiffLines:
* The Necromancer of the Literature/WhateleyUniverse. Nobody has a name like that unless he's Obviously Evil. Then he goes for the evil cloak over the hideous armor that's part cybernetics and part chitinous inhuman organics, ''plus'' the obligatory skull facemask. And he has a team that based on monsters: Lycanthros (a super werewolf type), Vamp (a girl with vampiric powers), the Arch-Fiend, Nightgaunt, and Lady Darke. It goes without saying that he is not petting any puppies. Oh, and he's a Nazi.
Added DiffLines:
* Both subverted and played straight in ''Literature/TheZombieKnight'' with characters like Gohvis, an eight foot tall black scaled lizard, with a reputation for destroying cities by punching holes in volcanoes, turns out to be a Librarian. Or Koh, the Man Eater, who likes small children, and looks like a cigar smoking dog.

Added DiffLines:
* ''Literature/PathOfTheRanger'' has the Dark Rangers a subversive splinter cell of the King's Rangers. The name says it all. The King's Rangers aren't presented as perfect or wholly good, but with a name like "Dark Rangers", there's no question that these are not going to be a better alternative. And that's before they start their whole sale assassinations of anyone who might foil their planned regicide.

* ''Literature/WhoGoesThere''. Blair is not impressed when Connant insists the alien [[MonsterInTheIce they've found frozen in the ice]], with its red glaring eyes and monstrous appearance, "grew up on evil, adolesced slowly roasting alive the local equivalent of kittens, and amused itself through maturity on new and ingenious torture." Blair accuses him of [[FantasticRacism instinctively hating something that looks different]]. Once it wakes however, the Thing proceeds to try and KillAndReplace everyone.
