Hi Forum,

I'm currently running a superhero game on Fantasy Grounds using BRP. Only because IMHO Mutants & Masterminds sucks. Moving on; does anyone know of a site that has some example supervillains from popular media that I can use as an example to create my own, or rather convert them from Hero 5th edition.

Thanks

Are you looking specifically for BRP / HERO builds, or statted out in general?

Thanks for the reply.

Specifically the next villain they will fight is a deadshot style villain. But really I'm looking as several examples across a broader spectrum in order to build more balanced and challenging enemies. At the moment I'm 'fluffing' a lot of the bad guys because I haven't much experience with BRP.

Thanks.

A few thigns from the SCP foundation would make good villains, or at least good monsters. Having them break form containment/the exercise of an expy foundation is optional.

In particular, SCP-049 (http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-049) could be used as a villain basically straight up, as he already has power (making zombies), a costume (it's his flesh), and a motive("Curing" free will).

106 is similar, (http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-106) and much more likely to cause nightmares. They'll enjoy punching his head in, though.

SCP 2317 would be better as a big-bad, or the thing the big bad wants to release. (http://www.scp-wiki.net/scp-2317)

Those are a few off the top of my head. I'm sure the're a few dozen more.

On that note Tvtropes has basically half of anything fictional, sooo....

If you want preexisting stats... you're on your own.

Thanks for the advice Doorhandle, but I'm not sure I'm ready to inflict the SCPs on my players. There is some really nightmarish stuff there!

However I think you misunderstand my question. I'm not looking for villain ideas, those I have plenty of as the game world I'm running has had several campaigns run within it. Instead, because I am switching from Hero 5th Edition (Champions) to Basic Role Playing (Superworld) I am looking for some pre-generated villains to use as an example/benchmark for converting my existing villains into the correct format for BRP.
