“ | You're too late, Princess Twilight. Soon, all of Equestria will fall and a new Tambelon shall rise from the ashes! | „ |
~ Grogar to Twilight Sparkle |
“ | So, what am I getting at... how would you like to use these powers to... oh, I don't know... TAKE OVER THE WORLD OF UNCONCIA?! | „ |
~ Psycho Iris to Waluigi. |
Hegemonic villains have the hunger for Domination, the desire to take over or rule the world, whether it is the actual Earth or their own world. On larger scales, some try to take over or rule their universe and (for the truly despotic and oppressive) all of the omniverse. This is arguably one of the most well-known types of villains.
Some of these villains can also be Necessary Evil and/or On & Off because there could be a more dangerous threat that wants to destroy the world and/or universe instead, which causes some of them to become Scapegoats if it means helping their own foes to defeat the more dangerous threat.
On the exact opposite end of the spectrum are beings so despotic that they are considered the worst of the worst in their setting, even when such settings have cataclysmic threats and any alliances these particular characters make is purely self-serving and ends in either treachery or later conflict.
Their heroic counterpart opposes the idea of using their powers or gifted talents for cataclysmic and tyrannical purposes like these villains seek to.
