The inverse of an anti-hero. An anti-villain is a villain that portrays him/herself as someone who is just and altruistic while is secretly working towards an otherwise nefarious and villainous goal. Common archetypes of anti-villains are politicians and religious figures who craft a wholesome and good-natured image to hide their evil intentions; this may even sometimes include doing good deeds, but only as a temporary measure to potentially further their true ambitions.
Cartoon characters are personas from cartoons, which are animated moving sequences that are usually drawn but can be computer animated and can come from television, movies, anime or even the web. They can be humans, animals, or even things usually not thought of as living.
One or more events from someone's past that negatively affected them. Plenty of video game characters have such pasts.
A characteristic present in game characters with a superior state of mind reflected in how they solve problems and their way of approaching situations.
Humans are bipedal, sapient primates capable of abstract reasoning, language, and emotions.
One who invents, preferably stuff that no one have thought of before.
They may be good or evil, but mad scientists are always performing experiments that are on the outer fringes of science. Ever since Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, they've been in the scene.
Games that feature an antagonist--someone who opposes the game's protagonist--that is a man.
Not all scientists are mad and/or hell-bent on dominating worlds. Some are just your ordinary egghead with a coat.
An antagonist who isn't a villain by choice and is not in control of their emotions or a victim of tragic circumstance.
A malevolent character whose goals are evil in nature. While villains are commonly featured as antagonists, not all antagonists are necessarily villains.
