Complete Monster — Description
A Complete Monster is a Character (always a villain, but not always a antagonist,) who is as evil as it gets and as almost no redeeming qualities and there is no chances of them turning good (If they do the very credibility of the story is likely to be threatened.)

A Complete Monster can be recognized by these signs:

The character is truly heinous by the standards of the story, which makes no attempt to present the character in any positive way.

The character's terribleness is played seriously at all times, evoking fear, revulsion and hatred from the other characters in the story.

They are completely devoid of altruistic qualities. They show no regret for their crimes.

Examples

Avatar The Last Airbender: Fire Lord Ozai, a genocidal, child-abusing fascist dictator who has dedicated weeks at a time and large portions of his national army to hunting down and killing a twelve-year-old and his friends.

Aggregor from Ben 10 Ultimate Alien

Katz from Courage the Cowardly Dog.

Lord Tirek from the original My Little Pony Special. Who planed to create " The night that never ends" by kidnapping ponies and turning them into monsters. And repeatedly threatens to decapitate Spike (who is a child.)

Robotnik in Sonic Sat AM unlike the much less evil version of him you'd see in other Sonic cartoons, (or the games themselves) is much less pleasant.

Jacques from Scooby-Doo on Zombie Island stands out as a stark contrast with his two Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds co-conspirators.

In The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Judge Claude Frollo (the character above) is likely one of the most evil characters the company has ever invented. The opening riddle regarding him and Quasimodo is even "Who is the monster and who is the man?" Most Disney villains want to do things like... take over a kingdom. Old-school villainy. Frollo wants to...er, commit genocide. His creepy, creepy lust for Esmeralda only heightens the revulsion audiences have for him, and there aren't any other Disney villains who've tried to burn entire innocent families alive in their homes, either. A notable exception to other Disney Laughably Evil villains. Even being a classic case of Knight Templar, the things he does casts his "good intentions" as being sham and hollow.

The Horned King from The Black Cauldron.

Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls.

The Coachman from Pinocchio.

Scar From Lion King. He orchestrates a plot to murder his own brother and his young nephew, Simba, actually kills his brother on-screen in a Disney film, lies to poor, grief-stricken little Simba to make him blame himself for the death of Mufasa, and after telling Simba to run away, he sends his mooks out after him to kill him anyway. Even before that, he was willing to have his hyena minions not only kill Simba but also his friend Nala, who was not only also a cub but someone who Scar didn't even NEED to have killed, unlike Simba and Mufasa who at least were in his way to the throne. Not only does he show no remorse, when he's about to kill Simba near the end, he gloats about killing Mufasa.

Syndrome from the Incredibles. He starts by killing the worlds super heros partly to test he's doomsday device and partly to get them out of the way. He then shoots down the plant that Mr Incredible's family is on. He then gloats about it. Then when Mr Incredible threatened to kill his assistant he said go a head. Then he releases is doomsday device on the general public. And all this was some he could play super hero.

Lotso Huggin Bears from Toy Story 3. While there plenty most evil characters here. Lotso is given the opportunity to redeem himself but refuses to do so. Even is Freudian Excuse only explain he's Behavior.

Turbo from Wreck it Ralph is so narcissistic he got his own game and a another game up pulled (leaving the inhabits of the games homeless or dead) and tried to kill (yes kill) Vanellope and take her place.

Percival McLeach from The Rescuers Down Under.

Oliver & Company What Complete Monster list involving would be complete without a mention of Sykes? This is a villain who is willing to roll up a car window against the neck of someone who failed to pay back a loan, (Sykes later releases attack dogs against the pet dog of the same victim) or to kidnap a little girl to try to extort money from her wealthy parents. Oh, and when said girl and the in-debt-guy from earlier are trying to escape via vehicle, he chases them into the New York subway system with his expensive car and attack dogs. Said attack dogs are also incredibly vicious, which leaves one wondering how Sykes raised them.

Mulan: This trope is basically the entire characterization of Shan-Yu. He commits atrocities (slaughtering an entire village of innocents just to destroy the emperor's army, for instance), is feared by every character who doesn't follow him, has no excuse other than wishing to prove his power, sadistically enjoys his atrocities (he's smiling when talking about murdering a child), and naturally, he isn't redeemed.

In American Dragon Jake Long theirs The Huntsman is the worst of the the Huntsclan, seeing as he is their leader. He kidnapped Rose at birth and is quite possibly the one who personally brainwashed her into believing in the Huntsclan way of life. As Rose's abduction means that this is probably the way that all Huntsclan members are recruited, this possibly gives him somewhat of a Freudian Excuse. However, seeing as his hatred has consumed him to the point where he has continued to kidnap infants from their parents despite knowing that he himself was kidnapped, he could be considered even more of a monster. The Huntsman has also killed a magical creature onscreen and, of course, who could forget that when he found out about Rose's Heel Face Turn, he threatened to kill her parents if she refused to help him acquire the means to kill every single magical creature on the face of the Earth.

Killer robot Ares from Next Gen. Initially Justin Pin's hulking robot bodyguard, It's later revealed that he killed the real Justin Pin and has been controlling a robot version of him before the movie actually began. Ares clams he was created to be the perfect machine and that humans are flawed and therefore need to be destroyed. He creates the Gen 6 Q-Bots for everyone to own, planning on having them detonate and wipe out all of humanity Seeing 7723 destroying his machines, he kidnaps Mai's mother Molly, then tries to kill the two before leading them to a trap once they manage to escape. He then casually vaporizes Dr. Rice and orders the Q-Bots to detonate a full soccer stadium once his plans are leaked to the public, before trying to disintegrate Mai for foiling his plans.

Emperor Palatine/Darth Sidious from Star Wars the main villain of the series and one of the most evil. Born a sadistic Pychopath who may or may not have killed his parents (he definitely did in the legends continuity.) He sought to extend his influence wherever he could, in his various guises as Darth Sidious and ruler of the Galactic Republic and later The Empire, he has been responsible for orchestrating galactic-wide wars, manipulating others and then disposing of them when they have served his needs, personally murdering and torturing a vast number of people, tyrannically oppressing trillions of sentient beings, wiping out billions of lives to secure and then maintain power. Some of his atrocities include the infamous Order 66 and ordered the kidnapping of and (attempted) experimenting on babies.

Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin is one of the highest-ranking officers in the Galactic Empire and one of their most infamously cruel. Even before his integration into the Empire, Tarkin showed resentment towards the Jedi and happily tried to have Ahsoka Tano executed, despite Tano having previously saved his life (and contributing almost nothing to said rescue himself.) After being promoted to Moff following Palpatine's conversion of the Republic to the Empire, Tarkin, after crafting the Tarkin Doctrine, which laid out principles of The Empire, would repeatedly demonstrate his cruelties as a high-ranking officer. Tarkin sanctions the obliteration of rebel city NiJedha and claims the victory as his own. Tarkin later has the Death Star fire on the Imperial base on Scarif to quell rebel activity, killing countless members of the Empire's own men as well as his hated rival Orson Krennic, while also wiping out the remainder of Rogue One.Tarkin's most recognized atrocity is, while in command of the Death Star, having Princess Leia tortured and, even after being provided with the information he wanted, he decided to blow Alderaan up anyway and forced Leia to watch Tarkin proves himself to be one of the Empire's most ruthless officers, with only the Emperor himself rivaling his cruelty.

The "New" Canon version of General Grievous. The old Legions version had a decent Freudian Excuse. But this Grievous chose to become a cyborg. He seems that he's only involved in the Clone Wars as a ego trip and (most importantly) as a excuse to kill people (namely Jedi.) And as committed many war crimes (even when it doesn't directly benefit him.)

Pong Krell having forseen that the Jedi will be wiped out he decides to defect to the separatists. But not before he getting as many Clones killed as possible. Even manipulating two Clone battalions into killing each other.

Keeper Arguss while being a slaver is already bad. He going above the call of duty and takes sadistic pleasure in breaking slaves spirits and even killing them.

Dr. Nuvo Vindi a mad science who revives a extinct deadly virus that no species are immune to as the potential to end all life in the Galaxy (which was more or less his plan.)

The now non-canon novel version of Moff Jerjerrod from Return of the Jedi.

The Sith Emperor Vitiate/Eternal Emperor Valkorion From The Old Republic era is quite possibly the only one in Star War history to be more evil then Palpatine. Born out of wedlock as Tenebrae the illegitimate child of a Sith Lord and a famer's wife. Vitate murdered them at a young age and tortured and imprisoned his father soul. he is responsible every major catastrophe in the galaxy during the Old Republic era. Vitate is held in contempt by both Jedi and Sith alike

Darth Krayt went from well intended extremist to this as his evil grow more and more.

In The Pirates of the Caribbean theirs Lord Cutler Beckett and Blackbeard.

Once Upon a Time's version of Peter Pan. He not just extremely amoral but also sadistic, manipulative and he in regarded has one of thr most evil people inverse.

In Supernatural most of the villains are literal monsters but strangely enough most are supervisions. However the are quite a few who do count as this.

The fist and for most the yellow eyed demon Azazel.

The original demon Lilith her idea of having a so off time is to posses a little girl and torture her family, and she eats baby's.

Alistair hell's main torturer.

Dick Romina the leader of the Leviathans looks like one too

. A even bigger example is not a monster or a demon but a angel Zachariah. In a edition to just being in it for power he's very manipulative, sadistic and petty.

Lucifer at fist looks like a subversion but is "friendly" behavior ends up looking more like a appeal to pity. And as repeatedly Lampshaded he's basically a spoiled bratt throwing giant temper tantrum at is father (God) for having a new child (us). And as father of the demons he created them by twisting human souls and it is heavily implied (and is Crowley's sole motivation for wanting to stop him,) that as soon as the defeats Michel and after or before killing all the humans he will destroy the demons too (this oddly enough dose not make the demons any more sympathetic as they don't seem to care about who they were or how they become what they are. And they are in denial that Lucifer may destroy them when he's done with them.

From Harry Potter Lord Voldemort defining characteristic is being a sociopath who cannot understand love and has no remorse for any of his actions. He started two genocidal wars against Muggle-born wizards, Muggles, and their supporters alike, out of a Nazi-esque desire to create the "perfect" wizarding world; this despite the fact that he himself is half-Muggle.

Bellatrix Lestrange is a psychopathic female Death Eater who seems to be motivated primarily by her desire to inflict as much pain on as many people as possible in the name of Voldemort's cause.

Dolores Umbridge in one of the most hated character in the series (possibly one of the most hated characters in all of fiction) and for good reason. A domineering and abusive matron figure and a bureaucrat whose pettiness and personal failings cause catastrophic harm to those under her control, all while maintaining a kind grandmotherly veneer.

The title character of It. A demonic, shape shifting, child eater, eldritch abomination that most commonly appears as a clown name Pennywise.

From Game Of Thrones/A Song Of Ice And Fire:

Joffrey Baratheon a spoiled smug sadist who takes the worst aspects of both his parents (both his fake father and his real one.)

Ser Gregor Clegane, the Mountain, is the most feared knight in Westeros and works for Tywin Lannister and his family. A violent sadist who had once burned his brother's face for playing with one of his toys, Gregor is introduced in the Hand's tournament where he murders another contender via splintered lance; when Loras Tyrell manages to unhorse him, Gregor slaughters his own horse for failing him and attempts to murder Loras. When Gregor's own brother interferes, Gregor tries to kill him as well. When next seen, Gregor is head of the occupying Lannister forces at Harrenhal where he selects prisoners to be tortured to death by one of his men known as the Tickler.

Craster is a particularly nasty Wildling who resides beyond the Wall, marring his own daughters to bare more daughter and sacrificing any sons they may bare to The White Walkers/Others.

Karl Tanner quite possibly even worse then Craster (as well as the one who kills him,) he takes the taboo of oathbreaking to extreme measures. After taking over at Craster's Keep, Karl rules with an iron fist, drinks wine from the skull of Lord Commander Mormont, he relishes his past as a Psycho for Hire and constantly pressures his own men to rape and brutalize Craster's wives/daughters, who are too terrified of Karl's violent outbursts to oppose him.

Ramsay Snow, the bastard son of Lord Roose Bolton and the most vicious member of House Bolton, is a sadist with a knack for torture and flaying others alive.

Morgoth from the Silmarillion is the one who made evil in the first place and has proven that no act is to horrendous or to petty for him. And Sauron in the Lord of The Ring's. We are dealing with Black and white morally as well as black and gray morally after all.

animes most infamous example Johan Liebert from Monster. (Though I haven't got around to really watch Monster. But people go on how he's the most evil person in all of anime.)

Freza from Dragon Ball Z anime's second most infamous example.

Also Super Buu where as Kid Buu and Fat Buu are really aren't self aware enough to count (and the second one does became a good guy) Super Buu is.

Zamasu a kai who distrusted mortals eventually this would grow Into outright hatred for all Mortals Zamasu would also grow to hate His fellow kais as as well for as well for their Inaction. He would take it upon himself to rid the world of Mortals as well as his fellow kais his First Act of villainy was to murder his master Gowasu. He would then use the Super Dragon Balls to steal (Alternate) Goku's body becoming Goku Black. He with then go to kill (Alternate) Goku and his family. He would then team up with a future alternate version of himself ( who he made inmortal) and together the two of them would work towards killing all the Mortals and kais.

In Bleach theirs the some Hollows These guys are The Heartless, with a fair Freudian Excuse for their acts, but some take it too goddamn far when they don't even need to like Shrieker.

theirs also Mayuri Kurotsuchi and his eviler counterpart Szayelaporro Granz.

many consider Sosuke Aizen this.

Kyousuk Hguchi from Death Note. A smug snake who uses the Death Note for personal gain. And is one of the few characters in the entire series that as absolutely no sympathetic moments or redeemability qualitys.

Arguably Villain Protagonist Light Yagami ends up becoming one towards the end of the series. At the start of the series he's a Well Interned Extremist, but quickly because full fledged Knights Templar. He gets progressively worse is a series goes on and suffers some motive decay and seems more concerned with personal gain and control. Then maintain order and create a "utopia". And he was planning on killing people for just being lazy.

In Sword Art Online there's Sugou, the Big Bad of the Fairy Dance arc. He imprisoned 300 SAO players, including Asuna, into a virtual prison, and conducted mind control experiments on them. And then if that wasn't enough, he intended to rape Asuna in ALO, and then in the real world, while she's still comatose. And as the last straw, he tried to murder Kirito in the real world.

In Fairy Tail:

The Unnamed Slavers who forced thousands of captives to build the Tower Of Heaven. They employed even children (among which, Jellal and Erza) to do this work, starving them almost to death, punishing and killing them over the most insignificant slight. Killing them all was obviously Jellal's making as a villain, but hey, they deserved it.

Zancrow is one of the elite members of the Dark Guild Grimoire Heart. his only apparent motivation in life is to kill and destroy whatever he can. Zancrow feigns concern and care for members of his own Guild but after several are defeated by Natsu, he shows no hesitation or remorse in burning them alive. Zancrow makes certain to attempt to kill nearly everyone he meets, be they combatant or not. When he catches his ally Meredy coming over with an unconscious Zeref, he instantly assumes she's betrayed Grimoire Heart and attempts to murder her as well.

Take everything bad about Zancrow, make him a demon with explosion based powers that sees humans as little more than playthings, and then give him a penchant for forcing Sadistic Choices on others, and you get Jackal from Tartarus.

Acnologia, he was once a Dragonslayer killed countless Dragon (including friendly ones) not because he was a Knights Temper, but because it was fun. Eventually he killed so many Dragons he became one himself. Becoming a dragon did nothing to improve his demeanor. Everywhere he goes, he spreads death and destruction. He doesn't even speak most of the time because he thinks humans are vermin that are beneath him, despite the fact that he used to be one. When he finally speaks, it's mostly rants about how he desires nothing but destruction. And then he brutally murders Igneel right in front of Natsu.

The Major from Hellsing. He wants to throw the world into endless war just because.

The Unnamed Burglar from Seras' past. Who kill her parents almost killed her (as a child) and then rapes her mother's corpse. Even by the Hellsing's standards that's screwed up.

The Unnamed Burglars in Angel Beats Unable to find anything worth stealing, they told Yuri that they would kill one of her siblings every ten minutes unless she found them something of value. But Yuri couldn't find anything; not in the first ten minutes, nor in the next.

In Fullmetal Alchemist theirs Shou Tucker, a Mad Scientist who transforms his own daughter and her dog into a Half-Human Hybrid, partly to see if he can and partly to retain his State Alchemist status. He had previously done the same thing to his wife. He's the only character who even comes close to evoking Al's rage, and what he did leaves a stain on the Elric brothers' memories for the rest of their lives. Making Tucker even more abhorrent is his complete refusal to own up to what he did. He acts as though the Elric brothers shouldn't have a problem with his actions, assumes that anybody else would have done the same thing, and when thrown in jail, spends all of his time whining about how "nobody understands" that he did it For Science!. Destroying his family because he was either too lazy, or too devoid of talent to come up with another way of keeping his status, Tucker is one of the few characters in the manga to possess absolutely no redeeming traits or sympathetic moments.

And lets not forget The unnamed and utterly heinous Dr. Goldtooth.

The manga version of Father who lacks the Brotherhood anime's alas poor villain moment.

In the first anime of Fullmetal Alchemist theirs Envy His/Hers manga counterpart was pitiful enough in the end to avert this trope. This version on the other hand, is not, and takes the former's evil and Jerkassery Up to Eleven.

the first anime's version of Solf J. Kimblee: Unlike his manga counterpart, who has a definite case of Moral Sociopathy going on and believes Rousseau Was Right, this version is a Psycho for Hire, Nietzsche Wannabe, and Misanthrope Supreme par excellence, who Loves the Sound of Screaming and isn't afraid to share it with you.

But the biggest Monster in Fullmetal Alchemist is the big bad Smug Snake Dante A 400 year old bitch with a penchant for Body Surfing, she's stayed alive this long by jacking innocent people's bodies, ditching them when they start to rot, and repeating the process infinitely. When her own Philosopher's Stone runs out, she sets in motion a plan to cause so much misery in Amestris that someone will be desperate enough to recreate the Stone, allowing her to steal it with no risk to herself. She's abusive towards her Homunculi "children", arranges for Ed to kill Greed, jacks her own assistant's body, and finally, attempts to steal the body of one of the hero's Love Interests, who had already been severely traumatized by rape/pregnancy, solely so that she can force him to have sex with her. Said hero is both a teenager, and her ex-boyfriend's son. She later shatters the mind of one of her Homunculi servants when he dares to miss his dead friend, turning him into a mindless eating machine. She's never shown in a sympathetic light, comes off as an overconfident Jerk Ass in person, and doesn't even have the excuse of not being human to protect her.

Medusa from Soul Eater Complete Monster is really the only fitting description of her (though true she is a Magnificent Bitch a Complete Monster is a much better way to describe her.) Her list of evil-doings is long and continues to grow. She's a witch who has used her own child, Crona, as a horrible science experiment, driving them to complete madness and not showing an ounce of love, much less regret. When Crona is finally shown, for the first time in their life, true kindness from Maka, they do a Heel Face Turn. At this time, Medusa is also trying to revive the Kishin using two witches, Eruka and Mizune, that she blackmailed into helping her—she can off them with a snap of her fingers. When she's defeated by Stein, she escapes in the form of a snake and takes over the body of a little girl. She uses this form to her advantage, knowing damn well the protagonists won't kill her if it means killing the child. She gets Crona in Shibusen to act as The Mole and drive Stein to (greater) madness. When her sister Arachne is revived, Medusa goes to Shibusen to ask for their aid in defeating her—she's given Shibusen's best students to help with the job. At this point, Crona's been captured and Medusa tells Maka it was Arachne who took her. When Maka defeats Arachne, Medusa takes over her sister's body and tells Maka she lied: she was the one who captured Crona. As of recent chapters, we see Medusa has driven Crona to insanity and broken him/her again to use against Shibusen and anyone else who stands in her way, all just as an experiment. She then gives Crona the first hug she/he ever got from her, driving her completely mad and killing her, all part of her sick plan.

Cesare Borgia is one of the most evil people in the Assassin's Creed games.

Rodrigo Borgia has all real life counterparts ruthlessness and as no redeeming qualities.

Assassin's Creed I: Majd Addin, the de facto dictator of Jerusalem (who rivals Cesare in this department,) is a smug, strutting sadist of a man who takes full advantage of his position to carry out his wish of holding the lives and deaths of the populace in his face (which he does for no reason other than it makes him feel like a god.)

In Legend of Zelda series:

Yuga from A Link Between Worlds. He betrays Princess Hilda and to destroy both Hyrule and Lorule to recreate the world in his own image.

Zant From Twilight Princess is a unstable, childish, sociopath who do anything to gain power titled "The Usurper King" he was give powerful magic from Ganondorf (who Zant worshipped as a god,) but he had his own agenda. While is new power he transformed (presumably) all the Twili citizens into Shadow Beasts just so he could have zero opposition to the throne, and transforms into a Imp Midna. He then extended his tyrannical reign to the prosperous kingdom of Hyrule. He then forced Princess Zelda to surrender and uses Twilight on her kingdom of Hyrule, rendering all the citizens of Hyrule as spirits who could only watch as the shadow beasts tore up the kingdom. he executed the Queen of Zoras in front of them, and froze Zora's Domain, leaving many of the Zoras to die. When Midna refuses his offer to join him he tries to kill her by exposing her to pure light.

From the Arrowveres we have:

The Count, real name Cecil Adams and his successor Werner Zytle.

Barton Mathis, better known as The Dollmaker is a soft-spoken Serial Killer who enjoys targeting young and beautiful women in order to "preserve their beauty". After kidnapping his victims, Dollmaker brutally murders them by pouring liquid polymer down their throats until they drown, before dressing them up as dolls and putting the corpses on display.

Lonnie "Anarky" Machin from season 4 who more or less acts like a Joker expy. Once a mob enforcer, fired because his methods were too extreme, he then tries to ingratiate himself into H.I.V.E. by forcing Jessica Danforth to drop her candidacy for mayor. When his first attempt fails, he kills several policemen and kidnaps her daughter, to whom he gives a false sense of security before sadistically breaking her finger and promising to do much worse to her, before being intercepted by Team Arrow. During the ensuing confrontation, his face gets burned by Thea, which causes him to develop a creepy obsession towards her. After escaping imprisonment, Machin attempts to settle old scores, first killing his foster parents and then targeting H.I.V.E., in particular Damien Darhk, for not letting him join them. He then seizes Darhk's wife and daughter, again being stopped by Oliver and his friends narrowly before committing Cold-Blooded Torture. Finally, shortly before H.I.V.E.'s plan of global nuclear devastation comes to fruition, Machin invades Tevat Noah, where H.I.V.E. harbours several hundred people to survive the crisis, and promptly plans on destroying it. After getting confronted by Thea yet again, Machin kills her boyfriend Alex Davis right in front of her, dismissing him as a hindrance. Kidnapping Darhk's family a second time, Machin continues with his plan, causing Ruvé Darhk to try to appeal to him that he is essentially destroying the last safe place on earth, which just causes him to sarcastically ask her if he strikes her as a rational person and later murder her. Anarky has no greater goal or vision, he just kills because it amuses him and gives him a sick sense of satisfaction.

Prometheus / Adrian Chase From the very start, Prometheus is shown casually murdering innocent people and cops, all in an attempt to get Oliver's attention and manipulate him. He then begins systematically destroying Oliver's life over the course of the season, manipulating Evelyn into working for him, recruiting Black Siren to impersonate Laurel and slowly wiping out Oliver's various allies. He spends a week physically and psychologically torturing Oliver so that he will admit that he likes killing and his endgame is to kidnap Oliver's team and his son in order to turn him back into a killer. When Oliver refuses to give in, Prometheus decides to threaten to break his son's neck unless he complies, and when Oliver Takes a Third Option, he kills himself to activate a Dead Man Switch and blow up the island, trying to killing all of Oliver's friends and family (and even his own allies.) And He appeared to be driven by revenge over Oliver killing his father, except it's later revealed he knew his father never loved him and still didn't care. He further shows how depraved of humanity he is by killing his own morality pet.

The Trickster, real name James Jesse, is another Joker expy (this one played by Mark Hamill himself) bloodthirsty with the personality of a deranged child. After a killing spree that landed him in prison, the Trickster is introduced by breaking free from prison with the help of his son Axel, who he manipulated and groomed into becoming as dangerous a psychopath as him. With his help, the Trickster takes Henry Allen hostage and tries to have him impaled with knives while also poisoning the guests at a party so he can blackmail them into giving him money, with one guest dying as a demonstration. During his second appearance, the Trickster uncaringly abandons Axel and teams up with Mark Mardon/Weather Wizard for a chance to kill the Flash. And to do so, he disguises himself as a mall Santa and distributes over a hundred gift-disguised bombs to children, and forces the Flash to let Mardon torture him to death on threat of detonating the bombs and killing the children and their families.

Zoom, real name Hunter Zolomon, is a sociopathic speedster from Earth-2 Originally a Serial Killer with 23 victims to his name, after getting Super Speed, Zoom revelled in terrorising Central City. Left dying from abusing the Velocity drug, Zoom kidnaps Jay Garrick, the Flash of Earth-3, hoping to steal his speed to save his own life. When this fails, Zoom steals Jay's identity, acting as the Flash to create hope for the sake of destroying it as Zoom, while imprisoning the real Jay as a trophy. When the breaches to Earth-1 opened, Zoom plotted to force Barry Allen to become faster in order to steal his speed. Sending metahumans with orders to kill the Flash, Zoom also posed as Jay to earn Barry's trust. Over the course of the season, Zoom murders dozens of people, innocents, police, and his own minions alike. Confronting the Flash for the first time as Zoom, he brutally beats Barry, fractures his spine, and displays his broken body to all of Central City. Zoom also holds Harry Wells's daughter Jesse hostage, using her to try and coerce Harry into stealing the Flash's speed for him. After being cured of his condition, Zoom decides to terrorize Earth-1, unleashing an army of metahumans on Central City. When his army is defeated by the Flash, Zoom kidnaps Barry's father Henry, then murders him in front of Barry. As his endgame, Zoom intends to use a doomsday device to destroy the entire multiverse, sparing only Earth-1 to keep as his personal domain.

From Venom (2018), we have Carlton Drake the CEO of Life Corporation. Drake begins to experiment with the Symbiote, bringing in large groups of homeless people...he gives them speeches about the importance of all they're doing,speaking gently to a man named Isaac by reminding him of the biblical story of Isaac and Abraham, and saying that the true hero was Isaac accepting the sacrifice....when the Symbiote horribly kills the man, Drake remarks "next subject" with all the emotion of ordering a tire replaced. Dora Skirth, one of Drake's scientists, is getting appalled later as Drake runs through innocent test subject after innocent test subject so she helps Eddie break into Life's building to find the information. Drake kills Dora for this by exposing her to his last captive Symbiote, and tries to have Eddie recaptured with the Venom Symbiote. And once he bonds with Riot Drake's god complex seizes over and he becomes Riot's willing partner and collaborator, helping him massacre scientists and more with the intention of leaving in a probe to collect the rest of the Symbiotes and bring them to earth. Which would result in massacre of all humans. Drake talks a lot about bettering humanity and the world. But he have a serious god complex so All his talk about solving the world's issues is just Is his ego speaking. He's obsessed with doing things for his own benefit.

Speaking of which being irredeemably evil is Riot's entire characterization. Riot's one of the four Symbiotes that the Life Foundation brings to Earth. The rocket crashes with most of the Symbiotes recovered and brought back to the Foundation's laboratories. But Riot escapes, killing the driver of the car he's in and possessing the other. For the next few months? Riot travels across Malaysia, surfing from body to body while fatally feeding off of his hosts. In a Malaysian square, Riot, in his host body, develops a taste for a merchant's wares and brutally murders the man when he tries to drive him off. When the locals try and attack him for this? Riot promptly massacres everyone in the vicinity excepting a frail old lady. Who Riot then proceeds to body-jack as well. In the Malaysian airport? Riot's final target is a little girl. Riot then makes his way to America where the other Symbiotes are, where he ambushes and takes over Carlton Drake. Drake, though? Ends up being a perfect match for him. Riot coldly dismisses the other Symbiotes who had died, revealing he's got millions more coming to Earth. Riot's plan? Launch another rocket to the Symbiote's homeworld. And bring back his kind in droves, feasting on all humanity and conquering the planet.

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe:

Ronan The Accuser in Guardians Of The Galaxy is a genocidal Kree terrorist and renegade wholly devoted to the destruction of the planet of Xandar and to that end he is willing to kill anyone in his way (including woman and children.)

Ego The Living Planet in Guardians Of The Galaxy 2 an immortal Celestial, who once traveled the universe seeking companionship, but found that other life utterly disappointed him and lost any interest in them. Ego instead decided upon a plan of assimilating all creation into himself in what he termed "The Expansion". Lacking the power to do so on his own, he sired countless children, hoping they would inherit his Celestial powers, killing them out of disappointment when they didn't. Traveling to earth, Ego met Meredith Quill, whom he developed genuine feelings for. Unwilling to deviate from The Expansion, he gave her the brain tumor that killed her to ensure nothing held him back from his self-appointed purpose. After learning Peter might carry the Celestial gene, Ego tracked him down, playing the good father to him before revealing the true purpose of The Expansion, revealing his true nature when he believed Peter wouldn't care. When Peter turns on Ego, Ego enslaves him to his own power to use Peter as a battery for the next thousand years before kicking off The Expansion to consume every living thing in the universe. Believing himself to be the ultimate being in the universe, convinced that all life is worthless save to be devoured and assimilated by him, and with his hands stained with the blood of thousands of his own children, Ego demonstrates the true terror of a godlike being hell-bent on imposing his nightmarish vision on the galaxy.

The High Evolutionary from Guardians of The Galaxy 3, a cruel, narcissistic, mad scientist obsessed with perfection.

Hela, Goddess of Death in Thor Ragnarok Thor's monstrous elder sister, helped Odin conquer the empire of Asgard, but when he tired of war and finally sought peace, she was sealed away when her bloodlust and cruelty grew too great. Upon returning to Asgard, Hela slaughters all its soldiers when they resist her and tries to claim the sword of Heimdall to open the gate to the other Realms. When Heimdall saves the population of Asgard, Hela attempts to have her undead soldiers slaughter all of Asgard's people while forcing Thor to watch them die after she had blinded him in one eye.

The Clairvoyant aka John Garrett is the Big Bad of the first season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Heading the Centipede Project and a leader of HYDRA. The Clairvoyant has superpowered individuals abducted and experimented on, implants his soldiers with explosive leashes, which he utilizes should they fail him or outlive their usefulness, had Coulson tortured to reveal the secret of his revival, and frequently kidnaps and threatens the lives of the loved ones of his "employees" in order to ensure their complete loyalty. Ultimately, the Clairvoyant's true interest was extending his own life, and once he'd achieved that he went on to plan world domination.

Dr. Daniel Whitehall, real name Werner Reinhardt, is one of the heads of HYDRA in season 2's present day former disciple of the Red Skull, and a true believer in Schmidt's cause of eliminating The Evils of Free Will. A bespectacled madman with a seemingly pleasant exterior, Whitehall has performed horrific human experiments during World War II and in the present, using the Obelisk to test how quickly people died after touching it. In the 1980's, Reinhardt brutally tortured and eviscerated Skye's mother, Jiaying, via surgery to obtain her powers of lasting youth, discarding her afterwards. In the present, Whitehall brags about having mastered the art of keeping his victims conscious as he performs gruesome and invasive surgeries without anesthesia, brainwashes people, including loyal S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, into becoming his slaves, frames S.H.I.E.L.D. for killing sprees that he himself organized, and ordered the Bus shot down, despite Ward promising mercy, after forcing its passengers to surrender Skye. A sadistic, sociopathic Control Freak, Daniel Whitehall is a cold-blooded madman and one of the worst that HYDRA has to offer.

In Teen titans 2003 to 2006 version of Deathstroke (just simply called Slade.) His goal is ultimately unclear but the actions he makes infer that he does have one. Cold and manipulative Slade tries to find himself an apprentice whom he could mold into being just as cruel and ruthless as he is. First targeting Robin by infecting Robin's friends with nanobots that would destroy them from the inside out should Robin not follow Slade's every command. When Robin manages to anger Slade, he contemplates just killing then anyway. When his plans for Robin were thwarted, Slade next turned his attention to Terra. Taking advantage of her insecurity about being unable to properly control her powers, Slade manipulated her into joining and befriending the Titans, betraying them and finally trying to kill them. After Terra finds herself in over her head while fighting the Titans and retreats, Slade physically abuses her for defying his orders. When Terra tries to quit her apprenticeship, Slade reveals that the suit he gave her to enhance her powers also gave him complete control over her body and vowed that he would never let her go. Slade dies when Terra rebels against him but is is eventually resurrected by Ravan's father Trigon to act as his servant. Slade took a vicious pleasure in his work towards ensuring the apocalypse, mind raping Raven with visions of her destiny as the Anti Christ and selling out all of humanity to Trigon in exchange for Trigon giving him back his soul. Even when Slade rebels against Trigon, it isn't out of altruism, but because Trigon refused to honor their bargain.

In Superman/Shazam!: The Return of Black Adam: Black Adam is presented here without any redeemable traits.
