Near Pure Evil Wiki:List of Disallowed Pages

This is a list of villains deemed too sympathetic, redeemable, or generic to qualify as a Near Pure Evil. If you want to know more about the qualifications for a near pure evil villain take a look at The Near Pure Evil Status.

The following are different categories of non-qualifiers.

Too severe/many Mitigating Factors: This is for villains who have a mitigating factor too severe for them to count(i.e redeeming or being an anti-villain and the like) or have too many that might not be too big on their own but add up to be too much.
Not Heinous Enough: Too lacking in deeds to be able to count.
Some Combination: Self-explanatory.

Note: Just because a villain may fit a certain section doesn't mean they will be listed if them not counting goes without saying.

DO NOT add a page on ANY of the following things you see in this list.

Anyone who adds a villain from this list to the wiki will be blocked.

Villains

Too severe/many Mitigating Factors

Azula: She is far too sympathetic, for her tragedy of lifelong emotional abuse and exploitation by her father, Ozai, which had severely damaged her mentally and is predominantly the cause behind all of her villainy. The only reason Azula is even incapable of redemption is due to how warped she is by her past, as having to change her ways and wish for a happy family with everyone having healthy relationships with each other, was taught to her to be a weakness in the eyes of Ozai, so she learned to suppress them to earn his favour and was beyond repair since.

Ra's al Ghul (Nolanverse): He is too sympathetic, being tragic, frequently coming off as genuinely affable, having a code of honor, and caring for his family.

Raul Menendez: He has too many preventing factors.
Revenant Liu Kang (Alternate Timeline): Though he is exceptionally heinous he is also rather tragic and was forced into evil out of circumstance instead of willingly becoming evil. Also, when he fuses with Raiden and his younger self he regains his formerly heroic persona.
Roy Joe and LloydJoe: Despite being arguably slightly heinous, their worst actions were mostly under Diamond Eyes' orders, thus they'd fall under Villains By Proxy. Also, their crimes are easily outclassed by Diamond Eyes herself.

Yaldabaoth (SCP foundation): Acts and guides on instinct and has a relationship with Mekhane.

Bloodman: His actions are standard for Fairy Tail.
Bloodwyn: His crimes are mere standard villainy, and is loyal to Gomez and Raven.

Caprin: He didn't do much to go above the heinous baseline, especially when you compare him to Eogo.

Creation (The Joy of Creation): His worst crime is a attempted murder and he's a demon, bringing moral agency issues.
Cruel Veterinarian: His worst action of sending animals to space is not heinous since the animals come back unharmed.
D'Vorah: While being a despicable Hate Sink her crimes are very standard for the Moral Kombat franchise amounting to four murders and assisting two PEs.
Darth Maul: While it can be argued that he is on the much higher end of standard evil within the series canon, he is still not that unique in comparison to other villains who are more unique series in Star Wars and has other preventions such caring for his mother and brother and his death was sympathetic.

Ernie (SMG4): He is not taken seriously at all and fails the heinous standard to Mario.
Ernesto de la Cruz: His actions merely amount to one count of murder and one count of attempted child murder, which is not heinous enough for him to be above standard evil. As well, it is possible that he was genuinely affable to fans who did not know of his true nature.
Fairy Godmother (Shrek): Her actions are standard with her worst crime being attempted murder, which is not enough for her to qualify and also truly cares about her son, Prince Charming.

Gus Gorilla: Has some comedic moments and does the same crimes as the other animatronics, even if he did harass a young girl once.

Jagoan: Typical power-hungry villain he has no too horrible acts.
Jiemma: He is too standard for the Fairy Tail franchise.

Lucius Malfoy: He fails the in-story heinous standards to other more vile villains in the Harry Potter franchise, cares for his son, and ultimately redeems himself.

Marcus (Angel): Too much offscreen villainy and badly flunks the standards for the Buffyverse.
Marcus Cole: His crimes are generic, even disregarding the fact that he fails the heinous standards to Bryce Walker and Montgomery de la Cruz.
Millicent Clyde: She is only a standard "kill the heroes" type villain, who never actually succeeds in murdering her opponents. She is also a Minor Tragic, since her actions do not go far enough to completely invalidate her tragedy of her father's unfair treatment.
Mizuki: Even in spite of his actions in the fillers too standard villain, just a power-hungry, big mouth evil man.
Moonfish: He fails the heinous standards, in part due to his cannibalism being offscreen.
Moreno: His worst crime of slavery was standard for the era.
Morgana (Disney): She is way too standard with only a few attempted murders as her worst crime.
Mother Gothel: She is not heinous enough, especially given how her attempted murder wasn't that much of a success either. Plus, it is not uncommon to be afraid of death, which indicates that she wasn't completely selfish, as her drive was something that has been considered to be a scary thing to happen. Not only that, but she also massively fails the In-Story Standard to villains like Zhan Tiri, Andrew, The Baron and even her own daughter Cassandra. Even by judging her heinous in Tangled alone she doesn't stand out enough to be classified as even somewhat atrocious.
Mr. Gristle: His actions are too standard.
Mysterious Warrior (Double Dragon): All he did was one murder and one attempted double murder. And the murder victim gets brought back to life.
Nasira: Her actions are too standard and she protective Jafar too much.

Pitch Black: His actions amount to generic fearmongering.
Prince Charming: His actions are standard and he also cares for the Fairy Godmother.
Prince Hans: His actions are very standard, especially when compared to Runeard, and he has a legitimate tragic backstory.
Ransom Drysdale: He fails the baseline, with only one murder and two attempted ones.
Rapu: His crime of letting the people of Gorr's planet starve does not indicate how high his kill count is.

Shere Khan (Disney, Animated): He is not always taken seriously and fails to do anything above standard villainy and while he was more dangerous in the sequel he still fails to do anything above standard villainy.

Smile Away Reformatory School Sergeant: His torture isn't bad enough and is overall not taken seriously enough.
Son (Star Wars): His actions are too generic for the Star Wars franchise, he feels remorse for killing his sister, and he cares for his sister and father, and has severe moral agency issues due to bring the embodiment of the dark side of the force.
Stinky Pete: Way too standard to qualify.
Stranger (Walking Dead): Too standard of a villain, loved his son Adam, and wanted to keep Clementine safe.
Stromboli: He fails to stand out among other villains in Pinocchio (especially the Coachman).
Tavion Axmis: She is too standard compared to other Star Wars villains.
Team Killer Ink Leader: Even though she has crossed the MEH (by almost killing Meggy by pushing her down an obstacle course pit) and is presented as a Hate Sink, her other actions are extremely standard for the SMG4 series.
Thaddeus Sivana (DC Extended Universe): His worst actions are pretty standard for the DCEU and he is pretty tragic.
The Devil (Cuphead): His acts of stealing souls are standard for a Devil and he is also pretty comedic.
The Father (I Wanna Be the Guy): He is not heinous enough due to off-screen villainy, lacks any distinct characterization, and cannot be taken seriously due to the parodic nature of the game itself.
The Fishman Creature: Too animalistic and standard, which is not helped by the possibility that the people it was said to have thrown off the ship might still be alive.
The Thin Man (Little Nightmares): He is a grey-zone "kill-the-heroes" villain who is too sympathetic and enigmatic.
Tito Turtle: Does the same as every other animatronic in the movie, and is over-the-top comedic in his dialogue.

Viserys Targaryen: His actions are very standard by ASOIAF standards.
William Boone: His crimes are too standard for him to qualify.

Wolfram (My Hero Academia): His actions are very standard for the franchise and don't have much of a lasting impact.

Some Combination

Jane the Killer: She barely qualifies as a villain and doesn't even come close to being Near Pure Evil. Not to mention that she was turned into a villain by Jeff himself.
Jenner (Book): He is just an arrogant rat was not even considered to be a villain in the first place, just someone who thought he could lead with the group who followed him that in sadly lead to a disaster.
Man (Bambi): Has no personality, only has one murder, and might not even be malicious.
Russel Van Pelt: He was programmed to be evil and lacks sufficiently heinous actions.
Takuto Maruki: Only wanted to fix the problems of the world.

Franchises

Captain Underpants: Series is too comedic for near pure evils.
Crossed: The heinous standard is so high that nobody can go past standard for the franchise (other than Beauregard Salt). For instance, rape, graphic torture, and pedophillia are all bog-standard for the franchise. This is not helped by the fact the worst villains lack moral agency.
Despicable Me: Almost everybody is played for laughs too much and/or has too many redeeming traits. And Belle Bottom, the one person who isn't played for laughs, does little more than try to kill heroes.
Family Guy: Almost everything is played for laughs and the few characters taken seriously enough to count (such as Jeffery Fecalman and Michael Pulaski) are far too standard for the series to qualify as Near Pure Evil.
Garfield: Most of the franchise’s characters are too comedic and the few who aren’t, like Master Control, fail to pass the baseline.
PJ Masks: Practically every villain is played for laughs and the ones that aren't fail to meet the baseline standard.
Scratch Show: No one stands out in Scratch Show since everyone is extremely awful, and is stated to be a satire by the creator himself.
A Serbian Film: The film is an exploitation movie with no message.
South Park: Everything is played for laughs in the show.
Steven Universe: The villains that are heinous enough to qualify were redeemed and the ones that didn't fail to stand out enough past the standard.
SuperMarioLogan: Most characters are played for laughs and the ones that aren't fail to stand out from the ones that are.
Superjail!: The show is exploitation where everything is played for laughs, and the main premise is hundreds of inmates being brutally killed every episode, meaning no one can stand out (except for the Warden who is also played for laughs).
Team Fortress 2: The franchise is played for laughs all the characters are on and off, and grey zone and there is little story.
The Amazing World of Gumball: Practically every single villain is played for laughs in some way, and the few villains that are serious enough to qualify (Rob, the Void) have other issues preventing them.

Notes

Don't add any Real Life People to this.
Also don't suggest any villain that is Pure Evil on here since it's pretty self-explanatory that they are not allowed on this wiki. This also includes if the villain is unofficially approved, i.e the red lock isn't present in the page but the category is.
