Feather-Blessed Dragons -- What do you want to see?

The main thing that stalled me in this story was getting a temp job that just didn't leave me with energy to do much, but that was only part of the problem. I probably could have kept things moving forward if I'd known where the story was going. Now I have a clear idea, but I need a villain. So, I'm taking prompts for villains. Please leave suggestions in the comments![Poll #1768742]I look forward to reading your suggestions!  (If anyone suggests someone else in comments, feel free to add votes in comments.)

Thanks!

P.S.  For my new friends, the story in question starts here:  Feather-Blessed

It's true that stories don't always require a villain, but I've been thinking about this one for a while, and I've found a plotline that feels right, and that plot needs a villain. So I'm going with a villain.

An overprotective, allegedly-benevolent wizard-queen is a villain, however!

As to the names, Charlie Chaplin is/was an actor; the rest are fictional characters, mostly from science fiction or fantasy films or series.

Sure, but maybe if you included links to the series, people could read up on them. :) I recognized FMA, Chaplin, Xena, Snape, blanking on the others!

Derek Morgan's kind of the odd man out, being one of the agents on Criminal Minds.

Bellana Torres is the half-Klingon engineer on Star Trek Voyager.

Ripley is from the Aliens movies. (I should admit I only know her first name because I Googled it.)

I vaguely thought that could have been it, but I was blanking on whether Ripley was first or last name!

I voted for Charles Chaplin myself, because I could just picture him looking sad and disappointed at the miscreants. ^_^

"Sure, but maybe if you included links to the series, people could read up on them."

I like this idea!

Gosh, I don't even know how to watch TV series online, much less to link to them!

You could always link to the character's/shows page! :D

I'll remember that for next time!
