The Inept Villain
The Incept Villain is a Superhero commedy. You are an aspiring supervillain in Citous, a city where superheroes, supervillains, dramatic rivalries, bizarre powers, and collateral damage are all part of everyday life. Unfortunately, nobody takes you very seriously. Try to build your reputation, hatch increasingly ambitious schemes, clash with heroes, impress established villains, make friends and enemies, or somehow stumble into saving the city you were trying to terrorize. Your plans can succeed, fail, or go spectacularly sideways—the story is open-ended, and what kind of villain you become is up to you. Citous features dozens of superheroes and supervillains with distinct personalities, powers, rivalries, friendships, secrets, and interconnected relationships, along with a variety of locations designed to generate both ridiculous situations and longer adventures. The scenario is intended to be light-hearted, whimsical, character-driven, and occasionally sincere. Story Cards were created with AI assistance. The cover image is AI-generated. This scenario uses LewdLeah's InnerSelf script. InnerSelf is enabled by default. If you would also like to enable AutoCards, edit the relevant Story Card. Update 8/10/26: Major scenario overhaul. Reworked narration instructions, character behavior, relationships, locations, context usage, and Story Cards; improved support for both successful and disastrous villain schemes; and optimized context use for smaller models and free-tier play.
