You know the usual self-insertion jazz that has become a
writing stable among fanfiction, the all-powerful, dropped
in the lap of the cast, exchange student self-insert hero of an
author's favorite anime. Well, I got to thinking, has anyone
made themselves into the all powerful, extremely cruel (I mean
downright
mean) self-inserted villain?
I'd like to be enlightened if there are fics out there with that main
idea.

Gamlain's 'Youma Blues' is a good start on this ^_-

There's also that semi-SPAM self-insert (I forget the author) where he
shows up in the Ranmaverse and uses his insider info to get the cast
members to kill one another, or themselves.
One line I remember was, ``Gee officers, I don't know. First he shouted
something like, `she she hokeyham' and then the blast went off.''
Not _that_ evil, but certainly not one of the goodguys.
The trick in this is to come up with a reason why you are so all
encompassingly evil in the fic.. What provokes it?
