Subpages cleanup: Complete Monster

Go To

During the investigation of recent hollers in the Complete Monster thread, it's become apparent to the staff that an insular, unfriendly culture has evolved in the Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard threads that is causing problems.

Specific issues include:

  • Overzealous hollers on tropers who come into the threads without being familiar with all the rules and traditions of the tropes. And when they are familiar with said rules and traditions, they get accused (with little evidence) of being ban evaders.
  • A few tropers in the thread habitually engage in snotty, impolite mini-modding. There are also regular complaints about excessive, offtopic "socializing" posts.
  • Many many thread regulars barely post/edit anywhere else, making the threads look like they are divorced from the rest of TV Tropes.
  • Following that, there are often complaints about the threads and their regulars violating wiki rules, such as on indexing, crosswicking, example context and example categorization. Some folks are working on resolving the issues, but...
  • Often moderator action against thread regulars leads to a lot of participants suddenly showing up in the moderation threads to protest and speak on their behalf, like a clique.

It is not a super high level problem, but it has been going on for years and we cannot ignore it any longer. There will be a thread in Wiki Talk to discuss the problem; in the meantime there is a moratorium on further Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard example discussion until we have gotten this sorted out.

Update: The new threads have been made and can be found here:

Complete Monster Cleanup Thread

Please see the Frequently Asked Questions and Common Requests List before suggesting any new entries for this trope.

IMPORTANT: To avoid a holler to the mods, please see here for the earliest date a work can be discussed, (usually two weeks from the US release), as well as who's reserved discussion.

When voting, you must specify the candidate(s). No blanket votes (i.e. "[tup] to everyone I missed").

No plagiarism: It's fair to source things, but an effortpost must be your own work and not lifted wholesale from another source.

We don't care what other sites think about a character being a Complete Monster. We judge this trope by our own criteria. Repeatedly attempting to bring up other sites will earn a suspension.

What is the Work

Here you briefly describe the work in question and explain any important setting details. Don't assume that everyone is familiar with the work in question.

Who is the Candidate and What have they Done?

This will be the main portion of the Effort Post. Here you list all of the crimes committed by the candidate. For candidates with longer rap sheets, keep the list to their most important and heinous crimes, we don't need to hear about every time they decide to do something minor or petty.

Do they have any Mitigating Factors or Freudian Excuse?

Here you discuss any potential redeeming or sympathetic features the character has, the character's Freudian Excuse if they have one, as well as any other potential mitigating factors like Offscreen Villainy or questions of moral agency. Try to present these as objectively as possible by presenting any evidence that may support or refute the mitigating factors.

Do they meet the Heinousness Standard?

Here you compare the actions of the Candidate to other character actions in the story in order to determine if they stand out or not. Remember that all characters, not just other villains, contribute to the Heinousness Standard

Final Verdict?

Simply state whether or not you think the character counts or not.

Is it possible to propose a rewrite to Skullmaster from Mighty Max? Skullmaster was especially heinous from early 1990s cartoons.

  • Skullmaster was always a terrifying villain whenever he appeared. Skullmaster overthrew his previous master and took control of his subterranean kingdom from where he plots world domination. Skullmaster is a sadist, reveling in physical and psychological torture, and engages in both short term brutality and long term gambits. One of his most vile acts was vowing to save an ancient civilization from sinking beneath the sea, lying about it and trapping their souls as his slaves before in present day, sending them after Max's head "attached to the body or not." Responsible for the deaths of multiple heroes throughout the story, Skullmaster even attempted to blackmail Max for his mentor and friend Virgil's life by surrendering his magical cap. When Max turned it over, Skullmaster brutally killed Virgil anyways.

He was A Pupil of Mine Until He Turned to Evil to Virgil, he pulled a You Have Outlived Your Usefulness to Warmonger in the Series Finale. I just think the entry needs a little more tweaking.

So near the University of Texas is this store called Resurrected Games, which sells not only video games, but also movies as well. They range from well-known ones, to ones no one has ever heard of. I like to go there between classes to check out what they have, find any films that have potential candidates. There was one I found that did indeed have a candidate.

What Is the Work?

Disaster (appropriate title given the movie’s quality), or also known as Cult of Fury (which is what it's called on the DVD, yet Disaster is displayed in the opening credits), is a 2003 direct-to-video movie.

A woman named Tracy is on the run from her evil fiancé, who just so happens to be a cult leader. It’s up to detectives Roger Goodwin and Kenny (who's young daughter Jenna sneaks into a Casino somehow) to protect Tracy from harm. The movie goes like this: Act 1 is a chase film, Act 2 is essentially Die Hard in a casino, and Act 3 is the climax to a James Bond movie. Now, as you can guess from the synopsis, you can already tell who I’m proposing.

Who Is he?

Maxwell is a wicked cult leader who desires to rid the world of sin, starting with its sinners, and will do whatever he can to achieve his goals. Also, he loves explosives. Like holy shit, Michael Bay would be proud of him.

What has he done?

Claiming to be doing the world a favor by purging it of anything considered mean or offensive, such as foul language and bikini women on billboards, he tells his followers that he will burn the world if they don’t want to listen to his ideas. Getting ready to marry Tracy, he offers her his engagement present: blowing up an entire cruise ship in front of her because they had slot machines, which kills everyone on board. Tracy calls Maxwell insane and runs away. Maxwell chases after her (though I really shouldn’t say “chase”, more like casually saunters after her), but she makes a getaway.

2 years later, Tracy is living in Las Vegas hiding out in the Sands of Time hotel and casino. One of Maxwell’s men tracks her down and summons him to his location. Maxwell arrives after one of his men causes a massive distraction for the police. While there, he finds that Tracy has been posing for various posters as a model, which causes Maxwell to view her as an angel who’s lost her wings. A while later, Maxwell launches an attack, his men pulling out guns and shooting up the place. With his PDA (this movie is so early 2000’s) he detonates some explosions he placed around the building that blow up slot machines and several passageways, with the people being evacuated out by his henchmen, with some being kept as hostages. He calls Chief Hackett to tell him about the hostages, threatening to kill them if the police were to be involved. When some cops invade the hotel, Maxwell detonates more explosives that kill them.

So after a while of blowing shit up inside the casino and killing more cops, Maxwell, starting to get annoyed at his dwindling cult and constant communications between Hackett and himself, begins “The Second Project” as a backup plan to punish Hackett and the city of Las Vegas. With his PDA, he detonates long range explosives on the overpass that causes a fuckload of cars to blow up as the drivers fall to their deaths. The event is described by police as a slaughterhouse. So Hackett decides to invade the hotel himself with some of his men… that lasts for a few seconds as Maxwell guns him and everyone else down. Accidentally gunning down his last follower, Maxwell promises the heroes a flood (you’ll see what I mean later). Escaping the shootout, he sets a timer (10 minutes) for the remaining bombs, hoping to take down the protagonists and all the remaining people inside. Noticing that Tracy’s turning herself in to him, Maxwell sees it for the trap that it is, and kidnaps Jenna to be used as leverage to negotiate a deal; give him Tracy, or Jenna dies. So Maxwell is given Tracy, and Roger, Kenny, and Jenna are left by Maxwell to die in the upcoming explosion. Everyone makes it out alive, with Roger and Kenny attempting to locate Maxwell.

With Tracy in finally his grasp, Maxwell drives over to the Hoover Dam with her, where he reveals his next big attack: Using his explosives, he plans to blow up the Dam and completely flood Las Vegas. He gets into a shootout with Roger and ends up falling from the Dam. But with his final breath, Maxwell activates the explosives and blows up the Dam, causing a massive flood to hit Vegas that ends up killing 168 people and destroys the entire city.

But who cares about that, because the main characters are all okay and everyone’s happy with their lives. Yay?

Redeeming Qualities?

None. He doesn’t care for his cult members, constantly berating them for failing to find Tracy, threatens them with death if they were to have any hint of losing faith in him, and is only annoyed when his second-in-command is killed, as he’s running out of followers. His love for Tracy is entirely obsessive, and doesn’t care at all for her, having manipulated her into loving him. Even his whole spiel of eliminating sin is based around his desire to be seen as important and godly by everyone.

Heinousness?

Main villain, settles it.

Conclusion

Easy keep.

Odd, because someone already reserved and says that the film is to be discussed on the 21st, despite the fact it was released on November 29th in the U.S, which means it should have been discussed on the 13th.

Can this be trimmed? Also, did he do anything in the Ben 10 crossover?

  • The Secret Saturdays: V.V. (Vincent Vladislav) Argost is the Arch-Enemy of the Saturday family and, in actuality, a cryptid himself. As the Himalayan Yeti, Argost murdered people for pleasure, preying upon the humans who wandered through the mountains and taking "souvenirs" off their bodies. Two of his victims were Drew and Doyle Saturdays' parents. When confronted with this, Argost only says he can't be bothered to remember all of the people he's killed. Throughout the series, Argost was obsessed with finding Kur, a god who had the power to control all cryptids. Eventually, Argost discovered that Zak Saturday was Kur himself, and so Argost began plotting to steal the boy's power. Eventually Argost managed to succeed in this by draining the god power out of Zak Monday, the evil alternate dimension counterpart of Zak Saturday; this had the side effect of killing the boy. With his newfound powers, Argost ordered his cryptid army to wage war against every major human capital city, with the ultimate goal to Kill All Humans and rule all cryptids. Though already possessing a god's power, Argost craved more power still, and so he killed Zak Saturday to drain his power as well, just as he did to Monday. Ever the showman, Argost took to committing atrocities with a theatrical flourish and dry humor, relishing the screams of his victims and considering the destruction of mankind as just another one of his grand performances.

Hey y'all. Yeah, the discussion date for Mowgli was already set when I reserved it. I guess I wasn't aware of the limited theatrical release at the time, as I think the discussion date was based on its release on Netflix.

I do have an EP for Shere Khan (mostly) ready, so I'll post that soon if everybody's alright with that.

A version of Khan that may count? Huh. Then again, this movie IS supposed to be Darker and Edgier.

Also:

  • Ben 10 franchise:
    • Vilgax, the Overarching Villain of the entire franchise and by far Ben Tennyson's most personal enemy, is a psychopathic galactic warlord. After his evil caused him to be banished from his homeworld, Vilgax went on to assault and conquer numerous planets across the cosmos, outright annihilating the entire planet of Petropia and its billions of inhabitants to make an example of those who resist him. After discovering the existence of the Omnitrix, Vilgax becomes obsessed with possessing the gadget to modify it for his own gain, and spends much of the first series sending wave after wave of his forces to Earth solely to kill Ben Tennyson, a 10-year-old-boy, and steal the watch from him, later trying to viciously saw the boy's arm off and blow up the entire Earth for the trouble it has caused him. In Alien Force, Vilgax builds up his image as a law-abiding citizen by "legally" conquering 10 planets, though ultimately ditches this persona and tries to use the Omnitrix to lead a full-scale war against all who would stand against him. In Ultimate Alien, Vilgax becomes the herald for Diagon before betraying and killing his master and stealing his power, hoping to use it to mind control all life in the universe. In the final series, Omniverse, Vilgax, though at first seeming to have decayed in his evil, pulls out perhaps the most wicked scheme in the entire franchise, using a Chronosapien Time Bomb to wipe out all dimensions and timelines, his own included, to leave only a single, more submissive universe for him to conquer and rule. Vilgax was a purely evil madman who would kill first billions, then insurmountable trillions, just to satisfy his raging desire to be the most powerful being in the universe, and stands out as the most iconic villain in Ben 10 for this very reason.
    • Ultimate Alien: Aggregor is an Osmonian warlord who is wantonly murderous in his quest to achieve omnipotence. Aggregor killed aliens by absorbing their energy and matter to gain their powers. Generally this caused his victims to turn into desiccated husks, but for his plans to become powerful enough to reassemble the Map of Infinity, he turned five aliens into energy and absorbed them into himself. Aggregor killed Magister Prior Gilhil by stabbing him in the back, killed two other Plumbers by sucking them into space, and absorbed the life and powers of a pacifistic alien just because he could. His two most vile crimes, however, were when he nearly destroyed an entire inhabited world by stealing a component from the device that kept the planet from breaking apart, and when he tried to kill and absorb a baby alien capable of Reality Warping to complete his ascension into godhood.
    • Omniverse: Maltruant, from season 8, is a rogue Chronosapien bent on ruling all of time and existence. He masterminded the original Time War in his first bid for universal control, but was defeated and his body separated across time by Professor Paradox. Seeking to restart the Time War and win, He hired Dr. Psychobos to help repair himself. After Subdora and Exo-Skull complete repairing his body, Maltruant turned on Dr. Psychobos, easily defeated Ben Prime and Ben 23, and left both for dead in Mad Ben's dimension with his minions to restart the Time War. Once he travels to the time period of Ben 10,000 to steal the Anihilaarg and the Dwarf Star so he can create a more deadly weapon, Maltruant traveled back to the very beginning of the universe and snuck aboard the Contemelia's ship, where he switched their Anihilaarg with his own in order to recreate the universe in his image.
  • Generator Rex:
    • Van Kleiss is the ruthless dictator of Abysus. Though he uses propaganda to claim he's trying to build a better world for E.V.O.s, in actuality Van Kleiss cares only for his dream of world domination, and nothing for his subordinates. Van Kleiss makes a habit of petrifying E.V.O.s by sucking the nanites out of them, or turning regular people into E.V.O.s to act as muscle for him, not caring that such an action could leave them permanently transformed. In his bid for power Van Kleiss murdered Rex's parents, experimented on his Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds follower to amplify her powers while causing her excruciating pain, and threatened a little girl to force her father to turn the people of New York into his zombie army.
    • Dr. Branden Moses, from season 2's "A Family Holiday", announced a breakthrough in nanite research that allowed him to dramatically reverse E.V.O. mutations, giving a faux demonstration using an E.V.O. and either an actress with a set of prosthetic tentacles or an E.V.O. with tentacles, playing the part of the "cured E.V.O." Having convinced hundreds, possibly thousands, of people—including Dr. Holiday, who added her sister Beverly Holiday to Brandon's ranks—that he had made a breakthrough, dozens of intelligent but physically deformed, incurable E.V.O.s lined up to be cured. Instead, they were kidnapped and brought to a lab in the Arctic circle where their mutations were amplified and were ready to be auctioned off to the warlord with the deepest pockets.
  • Over the Garden Wall: The Beast is the nightmarish creature that stalks the woods of The Unknown. Finding lost travelers wandering the forest, The Beast would turn their souls into Edelwood trees after driving them into complete despair, then grind the trees into oil to fuel his lantern, prolonging his own life. When The Woodsman steals his lantern, The Beast tricks him into continuing to grind Edelwood trees and keep the lantern burning under the illusion he was saving his daughter's life. The Beast later makes a deal with Greg to show him and his brother, Wirt, the way home, however said deal was just a trick to drive the boy into despair. When Wirt attempts to save Greg, The Beast tries to manipulate him into becoming his new lantern-bearer, falsely promising Greg's soul would be kept alive within the lantern. After Wirt turns down this offer and reveals The Beast's lies to The Woodsman, The Beast makes one last attempt to kill the boys by trying to coerce The Woodsman into cutting them down with his axe. Taking deep joy from committing his atrocities, The Beast was a cruel and manipulative monster who prized his own immortality above all else.
  • Samurai Jack (season 5): While Aku himself is Made of Evil, this duo from the final season proves that, sometimes, Humans Are the Real Monsters:
    • The High Priestess is the leader of the Cult of Aku, and a zealot dedicated solely to appeasing the dark god she worships by any means necessary. Drinking Aku's essence and giving birth to septuplets with Aku's dark energy within them, the High Priestess dubs them the Daughters of Aku and proceeds to horribly condition them into unfeeling weapons whose sole purpose is to kill Samurai Jack. The High Priestess systematically abuses them for years on end, searing their flesh with hot coals while they're still young and putting them through brutal, life-or-death training routines where every slight distraction means torture and beatings—sometimes simply for things as minor as looking outside. Having the Daughters graduate by having them massacre her own devoted followers, the High Priestess sends the Daughters into the world to kill Jack and callously brushes off the deaths of most of them at Jack's hand, furiously attempting to kill Ashi, her only surviving daughter, with her own hands after she finally turns on the High Priestess. An unfeeling fanatic able to rival her own dark god in evil, the High Priestess justifies her cruelty simply by stating Jack must die at any cost—regardless if that cost is her own flesh and blood.
    • The Dominator, from "XCVI", is a sadistic Torture Technician seemingly motivated purely by a desire to hurt people. Slaughtering a village of innocents and abducting all of their children, the Dominator painfully transforms all of the children into psychotic killing machines to be used as weapons, and tests them out on Jack and Ashi once they try to retrieve the children, with complete knowledge Jack's refusal to hurt innocents makes him easy prey. The Dominator brutally tortures Ashi upon capturing her with clear lascivious intent, gloating that children are easily manipulated tools— and that Jack's refusal to hurt them only makes him a "righteous fool".
  • Scooby-Doo: These two villains are far, far darker than most villains in the franchise:
    • Zombie Island: Jacques stands out as a stark contrast with his two co-conspirators. While his partners had no idea that praying to their cat god for help in their pursuit of vengeance would lead to their transformation into monsters, Jacques was a normal man who willingly became a monster to make himself immortal. For years he's been using his ferry to escort people to Moonscar Island, only for him and his partners to drain the life from them. Afterwards their victims are left to wander the island as zombies, aware but unable to move on to the afterlife.
    • Mystery Incorporated: The Nibiru Entity is a member of a normally benevolent inter-dimensional alien race called the Anunnaki; his own kind considers him the most evil member of their entire species. He's spent untold centuries corrupting and manipulating everyone around him, especially the team pets of mystery solving teams, by perverting his species' ability to use animals as mediums to communicate, all working towards freeing him from his prison. In the process he's ruined and ended countless lives through his pawns, including Professor Pericles, who the Entity turned into a murderous psychopath. When he's finally released in the finale, he proceeds to gleefully eat his loyal minions alive, along with Mr. E. He follows this by turning Crystal Cove into Hell on Earth and devouring the entire town with sadistic glee, planning to move on to the rest of the universe when he's done, all for the sake of power. When Mystery Inc. finally kill him, erasing him from time in the process, we see what Crystal Cove would've been like without his influence: a normal town with everyone living good, happy lives, showing just how much pain and misery he was truly responsible for.
  • The Secret Saturdays: V.V. (Vincent Vladislav) Argost is the Arch-Enemy of the Saturday family and, in actuality, a cryptid himself. As the Himalayan Yeti, Argost murdered people for pleasure, preying upon the humans who wandered through the mountains and taking "souvenirs" off their bodies. Two of his victims were Drew and Doyle Saturdays' parents. When confronted with this, Argost only says he can't be bothered to remember all of the people he's killed. Throughout the series, Argost was obsessed with finding Kur, a god who had the power to control all cryptids. Eventually, Argost discovered that Zak Saturday was Kur himself, and so Argost began plotting to steal the boy's power. Eventually Argost managed to succeed in this by draining the god power out of Zak Monday, the evil alternate dimension counterpart of Zak Saturday; this had the side effect of killing the boy. With his newfound powers, Argost ordered his cryptid army to wage war against every major human capital city, with the ultimate goal to Kill All Humans and rule all cryptids. Though already possessing a god's power, Argost craved more power still, and so he killed Zak Saturday to drain his power as well, just as he did to Monday. Ever the showman, Argost took to committing atrocities with a theatrical flourish and dry humor, relishing the screams of his victims and considering the destruction of mankind as just another one of his grand performances.
  • ThunderCats (2011): Mumm-Ra once commanded a number of races he kept enslaved using explosive collars that he placed around their necks. In his quest to rule the universe, Mumm-Ra, as we see in flashbacks, ordered the destruction of a star system in a highly-inhabited solar system, killing billions in the process, simply so he could use the remains of the star to forge the Sword of Plun-Darr. Defeated and sealed inside a coffin, Mumm-Ra is freed by Grune, and soon attacks Thundera with his army, killing Lion-O's father Claudus and enslaving most of the Thundercats. After taking over Thundera, Mumm-Ra proceeds to torture Jaga for information. In "Between Brothers", Mumm-Ra tries to trick Lion-O and Panthro into killing each other. In the two-part series finale, "What Lies Above", Mumm-Ra threatens to destroy the Thunderkits when they interfere with his plans, and tries to collapse an entire city to kill his enemies.
