Today evening, I had gone to see the Lion king. I am quite late, I know, and the movie was quite nice too. But one thing left a deep scar in my heart and that was no one other Scar.
Now you may call me weird, or even take me as an “Evil” person, but I have always liked the Villains in fiction. They never fail to interest and surprise me and honestly… I think they very less taken care of.
Take Scar, for example. He is just the typical villain you would meet in fiction. Greedy, stubborn, cold, without moral or responsibility. And has a similar fate like them: Death. And what positive trait he has? Nil. So, in short, the cardboard cutout.
Now I really believe, these villain need a little bit more empathy. If not from the readers, then from the authors. Come on, they are also human or at least have human traits. They deserve just as much attention as the hero…
I have often feel compassionate to the Villains because I know they are very few people caring about them. Poor people, they are, isolated even by their Crafters.
I am really determined to make a deeper picture of Scar. Tomorrow, I would paint a human version of him.
Well, this is something I really wanted to talk about since long, but I had no one to listen… Thank you so much for reading this!
Warm regards to you…
Dragon Warrior β¨
Hmmm, I still have not seen it, but we are a big fan of Scar in our home.

Scar, is cool mean, he wants the top position and so many do. Villians can be admired. Just not live like them. We also thought it was funny he was a pelt to wear in Hercules cartoon.

I certainly do admire a lot of villains. And I agree with me, not to be like them, but atleast put forward a caring hand. A warm smile can eradicate even the deepest darkness. Thank you so much!

I would agree with you on Scar! They should have given a bit more on why he became so bitter and evil! As you say everyone I think starts out with good intentions and then has life happen to them which changes their out look and actions going forward. Nice post Dragon! Well done!

It takes a great deal of courage and conviction to walk your own path and leave the crowds to seek your own peace. I think you have that courage and conviction!

Honestly, I believe there is no such thing as “hero” or “villain”. Every one is both, depending upon the angle he is looked at. Well, Tatsuya first came to my writing world as a villain. But now, I certainly understand him better.

In my way of thinking, a villain is made by his/her circumstance. And there, but for happy circumstance, goes any one of us. And what’s a hero with no circumstance to be heroic?
