I\'m going to guess ForTheEvulz and CompleteMonster, to form a trinity of MoralEventHorizon.

Other villains mentioned above have an ounce of redeemability: UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans, even when it leads to TakeOverTheWorld or Despotism, is actually justifiable, since well-intentioned extremism is explicitly mentioned to be what excliudes people from being complete monsters (for example, in Crapsack Worlds heroes will sometimes end up agreeing about the TotalitarianUtilitarian\'s notion that crapsack world is crapsack), and thus can be reasoned. Omnicidal Mania, believe it or not, can sometimes be motivated by the well-intentioned desire (e.g. to euthanize the miserable universe, as in SuicidalCosmicTemperTantrum), and thus sometimes can be reasoned. However, the Unholy Trinity I\'ve mentioned just want to plunge the world into a living Hell for the sake of perpetrating Hell itself and nothing more, with no sympathetic or rational justifications whatsoever.
