Been a while since I posted something. I don't want my dealings with watchers/friends on here to be about car crashes and jail time, so how about something that introduce you to the characters of my story? Here are two of the villains. Actually, one of them is more like an antagonistic jerkwad, not necessarily a villain. On with the show! P.S. The story takes place in an alternate history fantasy world- that's why you'll see them say things like "in your world".

Greetings, and welcome to the "Villians Interview Meme". Whether you like it or not, you've been brought here to answer some questions about yourself. This is a recording, pausing and starting controlled by your author, so you cannot attack me. If you begin to fight with one another, you WILL be sedated/strait-jacketed. Alright now, let's start.

Would you show the viewers a shred of kindness by allowing us to know your name(s)?

Sentwali: You dare to ask me such a question? What an insult. I am Wtihene (king) Sentwali- I should need no explanation.
Maximus: My name is Maksym Tychewicz. However, I prefer Maximus much of the time; only those whom I have a special attachment to are allowed to call me Maksym, as are Polish speakers.

Are you male or female?

Sentwali: What are you, an idiot? I am married to a woman!
Maximus: Quite obviously male.

How old are you in human years?

Sentwali:565 in human years, according to my culture's calendar; I am 615 in the Gregorian calendar. I died when I was 23 and 26 respectively, so I look the same age as when I died.
Maximus: 300 years old in human years; however, I age very slowly, so I am only 35 biologically.


What exactly are you?

Sentwali: I am not sure what you mean by this question. I am human, and I was turned into an Isebliea (I suppose that the equivalent in the North would be Nosferatu or a vampire, but we are more like spirits instead of dead humans). But if you mean which people I come from, I am Akan; my ethnicity is Wti, a descendant group of the Asante people in your world's African continent. My mother comes from the east, what is now called Uganda, but she married into our nation.
Maximus: I am a dampyr- my father was a Nosferatu. If you mean my heritage, my father was Polish and my mother was Fakabu (African in your world). I was never told what tribe she came from because intermarriage was, and still is, frowned upon. Strangely, I don't have any of African features, including skin color or hair texture (although I've been told by many Africans that I have their eye shape). My eyes are blue, but my hair is coal black- a trait that I've inherited from my mother… among other… things, if you get my drift.


Do you have any powers?

Sentwali: I can shapeshift. As an Isebliea, I am much stronger than any human; I can also smell certain things, such as fear and other emotions, and have some telepathic abilities. I move much faster than any human. I can also summon demons and use malevolent spirits to change sharks into humans, though I can only do it on a full moon, and I must pay a price- five deep cuts into anywhere on my body. I value my looks and body, so I have never used that ability.
Maximus: I can transform into certain animals, such as a cat or wolf, as well as the stereotypical bat (yes, yes, it's cheesy, but I come from the Slavic people. We made up the vampire myths, so I have a legitimate excuse!) However, I can fully read minds. Many times, however, it's overwhelming and troublesome to try and read someone's mind, so I only do it when I really need to or really want to.


Who is your archrival, and what do you hate about them? Do they have powers?

Sentwali: I refuse to answer that question. I will say that she does posses powers, but without her talisman, she is nothing. She will be nothing more than shriveled skin when I finally have her.
Maximus: No one is worth my rivalry. I do have an annoying young boy who's keeping me from getting the woman I want. If he calls me a pedophile one more time….


Do you rule over any sort of land, country, county?

Sentwali: I rule over the Wti and Akan people, and by conquest and marriage, the Kabujo people and their ancestral group, the Yoruba. I also rule over all the insignificant peoples who live near and in Kabujo territory.
Maximus: No, I don't. But I am of noble heritage, so I have a lot of money, much money.


Why are you considered "the bad guy"?

Sentwali: Merely because I conquered many peoples. Although my wife will tell you differently- she does not like when I discipline our subjects with beheadings, floggings, canings, prison… but it is to keep things peaceful. You cannot have a successful society if you have too many urchins running about.
Maximus: I think it's because someone's jealous of me, and people are suspicious of my intentions. I just want a companion, is that too much to ask? I've never met my mother, and I want to so badly; I need someone who can make it happen, and Nanyamka just happens to be the one! And it just so happens that I have a thing for younger women… That's not a crime.


Do you consider yourself purely evil?

Sentwali: I am sent to punish humans for their stupidity. For their greed and evilness. I am not evil, I am simply a punishment to humanity to teach them about their wrongs.
Maximus: Evil? *laughs* If being a ladies' man is evil, then I guess I'm purely evil. I am a Catholic; my goal is to be the opposite of evil.


What do you think of the others in the quiz room?

Sentwali: You humans are annoying. I am only doing this because my wife wants me to show my "human" side.
Maximus: There's not much to look at… although the fellow next to me is very well dressed and powerful looking. And I never say that about anyone unless they strike me enough.


On a rate of one to ten, how powerful do you think the villain next to you is?

Sentwali: We must be fair. I would say he is a 9. He seems to have a way of communicating with people that is very diplomatic and charming, so he could likely get people to co-operate with him more easily than I can.
Maximus: 10. He's conquered ¼ of an entire continent already, and it's only been a year. I shouldn't have to say much about that.


Now, how powerful do you consider yourself to be?

Sentwali: I am the epitome of power. I am not human, and therefore do not have human weaknesses.
Maximus: Very powerful, though it depends on what you mean by "powerful".


Do you have an evil laugh?

Sentwali: Is this a children's game?
Maximus: *chuckles* These questions…


Do ya fear death?

Sentwali: If you want an honest answer… yes, I do. But only because I do not wish to die without my wife. But if I must die for her again (I was brought back from the dead), then I will, without any hesitation. I will eventually be either reincarnated, or go to Oyeheme (God).
Maximus: I think we all fear the unknown. But I believe in God and the afterlife. People say that we vampires are abominations to God, but I don't believe that. I don't fear death because I believe I have an eternal soul.

What's your goal, exactly? Or are you just evil for the heck of it?

Sentwali: My goal is rule all of West Africa within five years. Within 10 years, I will rule all of Africa. Why you ask? So that I can ensure a prosperous and healthy future for my people and my wife. What I want most is my wife's approval. She does not love me very much because she says she was "forced" to marry me, but we can grow in love. I want to show her that I will do anything for her, give her anything and everything. If she wants 10,000 men killed, then I will do that. If she wants 1,000,000 people as her slaves, I will do that for her. If she wants to rule an island nation on the other side of the world, I will send men to fight and conquer that land, just because she wants it.
Maximus: I'm NOT evil! How many times do I have to repeat that?

Do you have henchmen/a henchman?

Sentwali: Yes, and only the most powerful. I collect them from many nations across Fakja, as well as other parts of the world (I pay mercenaries). To my dismay, none of them could stop that little girl and her friends.
Maximus: No, nor do I need any- I'm a boxer by trade.


What do you drive?

Sentwali: I have people carry me on their shoulders. As for a vehicle, I do not drive, but I have a driver; the car is a Maybach 62.
Maximus: I drive a Porsche Carrera GT. The ladies love it, but I'm very selective of who I let in.


What do you do when you aren't trying to do whatever you're trying to achieve?

Sentwali: I practice wrestling and martial arts (kenpo and krav maga). I also swim and run. I do all this to keep in shape and to be proficient in protecting my wife, in case another Isebliea should try and overthrow me.
Maximus: I've taken a break from my boxing career to find a way to see my mother again; I still keep up with my training on a consistent basis by going to the gym and boxing random opponents underground. I also do MMA, but I've never considered it as a career choice, just a hobby. I also collect artifacts and sell them to fund my investment in Nanyamka's travels.


Were you ever a double-crosser (pretended to be on the opposite team, then stabbed them in the back)?

Sentwali: Never. I have no need for double-crossing- I am much too powerful to stoop to that level.
Maximus: I wouldn't say that I "backstab" anyone, I merely put up with the problem because I know that it won't help me get what I want if I really say how I feel.


On a scale of 1 to 10, how often do you lie? *gives them truth syrum*

Sentwali: 7
Maximus: 6


What color is your: hair?

Sentwali: Black
Maximus: Coal black


Eyes?

Sentwali: Earth brown
Maximus: Deep blue


Skin?

Sentwali: I would say I am a sandstone brown.
Maximus: I'd say a milky white?


Whats your uniform/favorite outfit?

Sentwali: The one I always wear- my kente. If you mean out of all clothing, I would still say kente.
Maximus: Military uniforms and suits. I always wear a suit.


Have you ever gone mad?

Sentwali: *laughs* You humans and your stupid questions.
Maximus: Never. A gentleman always keeps his composure.


If so, did you enjoy it?

Sentwali: I enjoy my work. People call me mad. If I am, so be it. I do enjoy it.
Maximus: *shakes head*


Have any family?

Sentwali: Yes. I had 5 sisters and 5 brothers, but all but one of them died- my younger brother is the only one left. My mother and father are still alive. I have many extended family members who are descended from my brothers and sisters, and they now compose the royal family.
Maximus: I have no siblings, at least not full ones. I have 4 half siblings, 2 who are different ethnicities: my first half sister is half Indian, my second half sister from my mother's remarriage is full African; my two half brothers are full Polish. My father had 3 mistresses, but he told me that he loved my mother the most; he'd only married a Polish woman to keep up appearances. The family was angry when they found out that he'd given all of his inheritance to me as I am the oldest; they didn't like the idea of an illegitimate half-breed getting the family estate and money. The only reason why I was kept around was because I looked full Polish and could pass in society.

Have you ever been in love? If you have, do they love you back?

Sentwali: Oh yes. I have never loved a woman as much as I love my wife. I have already said much about how I feel about her. I will do anything for her. She does not love me back, because, as I have said, she feels as if she was "forced" to marry me. I think she is slowly coming to love me; we make love often, and she does special things for me, but she is still resistant and angry much of the time. I know she will come to love me fully, eventually.
Maximus: When I was 19, I had a lover named Jadwiga (yahd-VEE-ga). She died because of influenza. However, Nanyamka has caught my eye. She's a smart young woman, a bit naïve, very charming, and very beautiful. I really love her facial features, and she's got such nice skin. I find her culture very interesting. It's probably the part about her that I'm most attracted to. She's warming up to me; she hugs me more often, and confides her troubles to me.


Can you cook?

Sentwali: No. That is what servants are for.
Maximus: Unfortunately, no. I've always had cooks making my food, even when growing up.


Do you despise the Earth?

Sentwali: If you mean the earth itself, no I do not. It has such beauty. But if you mean HUMAN earth, I despise it with a passion. Humans are the most stupid, greedy, selfish things on the planet. But they are also capable of good, though it is few and far between. My wife is one of the best, if not THE best humans on this planet.
Maximus: It has such wonderful things to offer, human and planet wise.


What's your pet peeve?

Sentwali: People who chew with their mouths open. I despise the sound. I had a man's tongue cut off because of that.
Maximus: Arrogance. It causes many problems in this world.


What kind of music do you like?

Sentwali: Traditional music, although high life and classical are nice to hear now and then.
Maximus: I like all types of music, but my most favorite genre is R&B. It works to get women in the mood.


What's your favorite food?

Sentwali: Jollof rice and kaari with goat.
Maximus: Barszcz biały, flaki wołowe, and szarlotka- I LOVE sweet things.


Are you bored, want to kill me, satisfied with this quiz, etc.?

Sentwali: I want to kill ANY idiotic human- which is most of them. As long as this interview makes my wife happy, then I will not be irate.
Maximus: I get bored with no action around. Take that as you will.


Who's your favorite villain other than yourself?

Sentwali: Satan from the European/Hebrew myths. It is a very powerful and menacing spirit, able to take the form of anything and anyone. I am called "Satan's right hand man" by White people.
Maximus: *sigh* I'm NOT a villain. But one villain I find interesting is Hannibal Lector- both from the movie and the book, although the movie version spoke kind of… weird, for lack of a better word. But he's so charming and complex and odd.


Do you think you're gonna die in your story?

Sentwali: *laughs* Die? I am already dead!
Maximus: No, I highly doubt I will. Is it conceited to say that I'm too interesting to die? *laughs*


Well, I have to go, and I'm sure you have a lot of evil scheming to do. Peace out! (Or should I say "destruction out!" in your cases?)

I won't tag anyone.
