Fiend. Villain. Abomination. An evil creature intent on
harming others for its own pleasure or benefit.
Monsters are nightmares made solid. They look into our eyes
and draw out fears, doubts and weaknesses. They challenge the faithful. And
inspire the mighty to be heroes.
In stories they represent the darker aspects of
societies, to be overcome and consolidated into the mainstream so that the
majority may be comfortable with their lesser flaws. So that when people reflect
on themselves, they see something better. Someone who compared to the monster,
is good.
For there to be Light, there must be Shadow. To kill.
