Note that those types can - and do - overlap. Nothing forbids the ArchEnemy from being an AxCrazy MadScientist, and TheBrute might have the same powerset as the hero, just less brains.

Remember to avoid writing [[SmurfettePrinciple token girl]] characters, as most people default to making their rogues gallery full of men, and purely use women as a source of {{Fanservice}}, because EvilIsSexy. instead here's a few common archtypes for female villains you can use to add flavour to the rogue types listed above:

* Simply put, the [[SmurfettePrinciple token girl]], as most rogues in the gallery are men. A source of {{Fanservice}}, because EvilIsSexy. She may come in a few different flavours:
** '''TheBaroness''' likely has some henchmen and/or works as TheDragon for another type of villain. She loves torturing the hero's loved ones and friends and may be close to the ArchEnemy in terms of danger she poses.
** '''DarkActionGirl''' is the most likely to give our hero a good beating and force him to abandon the WouldntHitAGirl rule. Somehow, she's the rarest female character in the RoguesGallery - likely because the galleries are already chock full of fighting men.
** '''FemmeFatale''' is the feminine counterpart to EvilGenius. While EvilGenius uses his wits, FemmeFatale employs her feminine wiles. She generally tries to [[TheVamp seduce the hero]], but for what purpose varies: perhaps she wants to assassinate him while he's defenseless (eg. in bed), perhaps she wants to rob him or attempts to make him do a FaceHeelTurn. She might be more anti-heroic than actively villainous and if hero tries a HighHeelFaceTurn, you have a subplot of DatingCatwoman ready to go.

** '''TheBaroness''' can work well as TheDragon for another type of villain. As She loves torturing the hero's loved ones and friends and Shes a worthy contendor for ArchEnemy in terms of danger she poses.
** '''DarkActionGirl''' is the most likely to give our hero a good beating and force him to abandon the WouldntHitAGirl rule.
** '''FemmeFatale''' can add an extra level manipulation and deviousness to an EvilGenius type. While a typical EvilGenius only uses his wits, if mixed with a FemmeFatale could easily manipulate TheHero by getting into a one sided relationship with him or a lovved one. She generally tries to [[TheVamp seduce the hero]], but for what purpose varies: perhaps she wants to assassinate him while he's defenseless (eg. in bed), perhaps she wants to rob him or attempts to make him do a FaceHeelTurn.
