| 28 | * ''WebVideo/ChronoTriggerTheMusical'': [[PlanetaryParasite Lavos]] is an [[AliensAreBastards alien]] that caused a mass extinction event when it first arrived on the planet, and spent millions of years farming humans like cattle to devour them and all other life. On the Day of Lavos in 1999 A.D., Lavos would break through the surface of the planet, causing an earthquake as it did so, and carpet bomb the planet with a rain of fiery spears. When faced with Crono and his friends traveling through time on a quest to foil its plans, Lavos obliterates Crono for daring to stand against it. [[OmnicidalManiac Hell-bent on destroying all life]] and [[{{Sadist}} openly taking pleasure in the suffering of others]], Lavos proves itself the worst of all the musical's monsters. |

Originally beginning as one of Count Bleck's minions, Dimentio reveals that he has known what the Count actually intends to do with the Chaos Heart the entire time, and attempts to use this information to goad the Mario Bros. into siding with him against Bleck. When this fails, Dimentio promptly attacks Luigi while happily taunting the young brother about how he desires all of reality to fall into a [[VillainWorld hellish perdition]]. After being defeated and seemingly blowing himself and Luigi up, Dimentio reveals that he is still alive and takes control of Luigi's mind to use him as a host for the Chaos Heart and become Super Dimentio. He immediately gleefully brags about how he is about to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy all worlds]] and [[DystopiaJustifiesTheMeans create perfect new ones dominated by misery and sorrow]] where he rules supreme, as he uses the Chaos Heart to begin wiping out all of the worlds Mario, Peach, and Bowser have visited while attempting to erase the three heroes from existence. |
| 30 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BRJgExKCtM Cannon Ball]]": [[VideoGame/MegaManZero3 Omega]] is [[AdaptationalVillainy portrayed]] as an openly malevolent Reploid [[AxCrazy gleefully relishing the possibility of bloodshed]]. Believing peace to be fragile and only held up by those who desire war, Omega mocks Zero's desire to protect a world deemed to be a "broken husk". Declaring himself to be [[Characters/MegaManZeroWeil Dr. Weil]]'s perfect weapon, Omega seeks to [[OmnicidalManiac bring about the apocalypse and kill all he sees]]. |

Being depicted as wrathful entities who view themselves as gods, they go to war and send their clone armies against each other and the fighters, [[ApocalypseHow wanting to destroy the universe in their own image]], with Galeem wanting to [[LightIsNotGood devour everything in infinite light]] while Dharkon wanting [[DarkIsEvil to drown it all in total darkness]]. |
| 33 | * ''VideoGame/HollowKnight'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l10pTZZtQI songs]]: [[LightIsNotGood The Radiance]], as in the base game, is a power-hungry goddess of light driven by hatred and jealousy. Having lost control of Hallownest when the Pale King granted free will to his subjects, the Radiance chose to destroy the kingdom just to spite him. To this end, she created the Infection and "spread [her] gospel across the land". The Infection trapped the citizens in a HiveMind for [[AndIMustScream all eternity]], forcing the Pale King to create countless [[TragicMonster Vessels]] in a vain attempt to stop her. Sealed away within the mind of the sealed Hollow Knight, the purest of the Vessels, the Radiance's influence still leaks through to ravage Hallownest. By the start of the musical, the Infection has spread far and wide across the kingdom, successfully plunging it under Radiance's rule. Confronted at last by the Knight in her VillainSong, "Radiance", she taunts it with the Pale King's failure to seal her away, proclaiming her intent to force every living thing to either worship her or burn. |
| 34 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lYVYZa_Xc6M Tilt-A-Whirl]]": [[AxCrazy Circus Baby]] in this song is [[AdaptationalVillainy completely devoid]] of the sympathetic and redeeming traits that [[Characters/FiveNightsAtFreddysFifthGeneration her original counterpart]] had, instead being depicted as an KillerRobot who seems gleeful about causing more bloodshed. In the past, Baby [[WouldHurtAChild kills an unsuspecting Elizabeth Afton]] to seemingly both spite her brother, Michael, over the recent death of Evan, and for her own enjoyment. As Ennard, Baby and the other Funtimes would lure Michael Afton into their trap and scoop out his insides, using him as a [[GenuineHumanHide literal skin suit]] to escape the Pizzeria. To make matters worse, Michael lives through the painful process of becoming a rotting MeatPuppet for Baby and the other animatronics, as Baby promises that he will never die. |

Upon his capture, Alice would proceed to hack up the Boris Clone and turn him into a mindless brute before siccing him after Henry as [[ForTheEvulz one final act of cruelty]].
