As for the second question: So...StrawNihilists, basically? It depends. If the game/characters explicitly suggested that their atheism *was* what was wrong with them, or if the whole conflict was about religion (with the good guys being explicitly religious and the bad guys not), I'd be suspicious.

If they just happened to say anti-religious things, I wouldn't assume that they were an attempt to represent all atheists. I would just see them as extremely collectivist, controlling StrawNihilists. That's cliched, but not particularly offensive.

Frankly, if I was that hung up on the political/religious beliefs of fictional characters (whether heroes or villains), I would never have gotten through Dragon Age.
