Top 10 Best Wings of Fire Villains

I feel awful for Darkstalker. First, his mom gets abducted, then killed 40 times by Arctic's horrible excuse for a mother (and she would spend the next several thousand years getting killed over and over again). Then his dad goes insane after the loss of his wife. Then his girlfriend is tricked into killing him.

I like to imagine that Arctic was only pretending to return to the IceWings. He was going to have Foeslayer set free, and then, as soon as the exchange for Whiteout was about to happen, teleport them out.

She seems evil. She had power over the largest kingdom, a dragon that could kill by contact, and dungeons stuffed with prisoners. She attempted to kill the DoD, plotted revenge when she lost the throne, and was incredibly manipulative.

A Guide to the Dragon World makes her seem like a vain psychopath. I wish we could see her motivations. While she appears evil, she could just be corrupted. She does seem excessively cruel, though. Essentially, she's like a Roman emperor.

Queen Scarlet was a queen that liked to be entertained by seeing dragons in her arena killing each other. She would put her prisoners from war in the arena. The prisoners would then fight for their freedom, but after a few wins, Queen Scarlet would send out her champion, Peril, to kill them.

Queen Scarlet wasn't like Burn. Burn would just stab the dragonets to death with her poisonous tail. Queen Scarlet, on the other hand, would want to play with them, torture them slowly and painfully. After Glory used her venom on Queen Scarlet, she went into hiding, planning to kill Glory at any chance. We see Queen Scarlet in Book 1, and then she comes back in Book 8, claiming that she killed Queen Glory. Something about Queen Scarlet is different from Darkstalker, but I just don't know what.

Would you consider her as a villain? It's tricky.

She wants what she was born for. "Never give up," that's what people always tell me. She never did. She fought desperately for it. But she had a "way" of getting it. Being sly and desperate. Being intelligent is her way of winning. Should taking away from others to improve your own tribe be considered selfish?

If Blister is a villain, all the queens should be.

She is my favorite villain in all of Wings of Fire. Please don't come at me, but Blister is my favorite sister out of all three of them. And yes, I am aware she cared for nothing or any dragon. Well, she cared for nothing except being queen. I am quite mad at her for just watching with a smirk as dragons panicked because of her dragonbite vipers she set loose.

All in all, she is pretty greedy, evil, and smart. (Pretty evil)

Queen Wasp is definitely one of the most evil villains because she lied about what the Book of Clearsight said and controlled the dragons in the hives.

I hate Wasp. She's just so evil!

She controls almost all the HiveWings and treats the SilkWings like slaves. She has also done many, many more monstrous things!

I hated Queen Wasp because I wanted to kill her from the start of the third arc. I think Tui did a great job making her because aren't you supposed to want to kill the villain?

Anyway, I also thought she was the best and evilest villain.

- Moonbli4life

Yes! I think Orca was one of the best villains. She was so smart to make a statue of herself, knowing Coral would think it was beautiful and harmless!

She's so selfish. Why would she kill her mother just to be queen?

Not saying being queen isn't important, it is, but still, killing your mom?

Well, I guess she just wanted to be Queen because her mother has been the Queen for such a long time. But she's literally like Blister! She's a princess who wants to be Queen! And she literally made a statue that's been killing the female heirs for YEARS!

Then she challenged her mother for the throne and thought, "Oh, I'll win this!" Until, you know, the tail stab. But no one can be something forever... but maybe 4 dragons? Anyway, maybe if she met Tsunami or Anemone or Auklet, she might've changed. Anyway, this is my opinion.

It's not really his fault. He was an animus.

At first, he was a hero, but then he went crazy. I mean, killing people, just why? He killed about a hundred dragons.

Okay, this guy has got to be my favorite villain ever. He's a complete rebel! So he's going insane from his animus magic, but then his sister, Queen Lagoon, says she doesn't need him anymore because now she has a newer and better animus, Fathom.

Albatross is just like, get wrecked, and enchants a knife and stabs her! This guy has no rules!

But then, he looks at the knife he just stabbed his Queen with and is like, Oh, this could be a fun game. So when the SkyWings try to escape, he just stabs them as well! And then he decides to go on a killing rampage and kill his whole family!

Lagoon and her sister Sapphire were complete jerks to him when he was younger, so in my opinion, Lagoon deserved it. I never liked her anyway. Albatross deserves to at least be number 3.

- Darkshade The NightWing and RainWing

This guy is shady, a huge jerk, ruined Clay's, Sunny's, Glory's, and Starflight's lives. (He technically saved Tsunami's life because she was a princess and would've been killed, but still, he is a jerk.) I got SO MAD when the prophecy turned out to be not real. He is the biggest jerk there is.

He's a cool subversion of the wise prophet trope.

He's a cold imperialist who justifies his horrible actions by telling himself he serves the tribe. A cunning and badass antagonist.

He isn't too bad. Morrowseer allied with Blister, which was a very good idea since she's the smart one.

The entire series of events in The Dragonet Prophecy was because of him and Queen Battlewinner.

He placed a ton of bombs and brought in Chameleon, one of my other votes, disguised as a MudWing to blame it on that tribe instead of him. He tried to replace Thorn with Onyx, who would repay him in some sort of power in return, and got rid of that plan when he found out that Darkstalker was King of the NightWings. Can you even imagine King Vulture of the SandWings? NO! Vulture made his whole family suffer as well.

- Vitality the NightWing

Vulture should have been used slightly more, maybe as a pre-villain before Darkstalker as he only appears later in the arc. But I still think he is a very good villain, especially because he's connected to Qibli's past.

If she were queen, there would be a war forever. When she was younger, she conspired with Blister to kill Blaze. I'd say evil!

Moondance the animus hybrid

So much personality! So unique! She does so much in so little time. Really, she feels like the mark of a well-developed character, having their own little quirks outside of jobs and roles in the story. Everyone can make an artist who likes art, but it takes a truly good character to reach outside of their job and role as a character to develop hobbies and personality.

I never really liked Burn that much, but they are just so much more convincing than a lot of the characters in these books.

He is a charismatic character, but still evil nonetheless.

He tried to kill Tsunami, one of my favorite characters! He can go away forever and never come back. Oh wait, that's exactly what he did!
Moondance the animus hybrid

As much as we agree that Whirlpool is a jerk, let's admit that it's kinda fun reading his lines in whatever disgusting voice we imagine him with.

He's my second favorite character in Wings of Fire because I have so much fun reading in his voice.

Whirlpool isn't exactly evil, but he's extremely selfish. He wants to be king so badly, so all he does is ooze over how amazing Queen Coral's work is. I hate him. He's got a stupid goopy personality and a stupid goopy face too.

- Sunrise (Rain/Sand Hybrid)

Coral is definitely evil, no matter how much she's been through. She painfully murders any dragon who fails to guard her eggs, doesn't care about her sons, treated Riptide horribly just because of his father, and basically ruined Anemone's life by being so overprotective.

In general, she is way too harsh on her subjects and doesn't care about any of them. For example, in book two, when her soldiers come back horribly wounded, she only complains that they are dripping blood on her carpet and doesn't get them medical attention until Tsunami reminds her.

I HATE HER!

Maple, the LeafWing-SkyWing

She has a very interesting mind. If I were an animus RainWing, I would've controlled her. What I would've done is sound charming, like Darkstalker, and then ask her a lot of questions.

Would she want to challenge her mother and kill her sisters? If the answer is yes, I would've told her that I would help her challenge her mother for the throne if she served me and Queen Scarlet until Queen Scarlet killed Ruby and Glory.

I enjoy controlling other people, and my characteristics are most like Darkstalker's and Queen Scarlet's. You should put me as the best villain in first place because my evil soul is super evil!

Mastermind isn't bad. He was just doing what he was told, like Peril was. And plus, he was expanding dragon knowledge. There's nothing bad about that!

People: He only did what he was told! He's not bad.

Me: Ahem, Queen Wasp, Morrowseer. They were both just doing what they were told. Why is Mindreader any better than them?

He's not that bad, but still, he never once questioned his orders. He never once went, "I shouldn't be hurting other dragons like this."

I totally agree. Fierceteeth is just jealous of Starflight because he's in the prophecy and she's not. Also, she makes this clear in the beginning of Dark Secret.

I hated her when I read The Brightest Night, and I hate her more now that I've read Winglets: Prisoners. What a vain, ignorant, selfish dragon.

- Frostflower (Rain/Ice hybrid)

Just upset because her mother ignored her after Starflight was born, but I don't think she was truly evil.

I don't care what people say, I love him. He's selfish and he just wants to be everything he's not. He's an absolutely terrible person and I love him! He doesn't need to be some over-the-top, OP control freak to be a good villain. He has all the power of Pyrrhia in his claws and he doesn't use it wisely! And that's fine because not every villain needs to be some intense, psychopathic intellectual. He's a failure and an idiot, but he has a place in my heart. His whole being is a masterpiece. Underrated.

He has a kind of tragic story. Betrayed by his tribe because he didn't have a natural ability, he finds Darkstalker's scroll to make himself a different dragon for each tribe and started working for Queen Scarlet. I just think it's cool.

She's not evil. She just wants to care about her mother, that's all. Nothing else. Her thoughts may be a little bit twisted, but she's not evil.

Look, he was taken away from his family, hurt by a SandWing, and chained up by Darkstalker. He just needs love, that's all.

He's really misguided. I don't think he was really evil because he cared about his mother.

Why would you use your powers so much? It's just dumb.

I guess you didn't know it would drive you crazy, but still, why would you betray your tribe?

She's pretty evil, that's hard to deny. She enchanted a crown to make all future queens hate NightWings to keep the war going forever, I guess. She also wanted Arctic to kill his own dragonets. I don't think she should have expected him to do that.

She also trapped Foeslayer and made an enchantment so she could kill her 40 times! Foeslayer got killed too many times to count. If that's not evil, what is? -Catfish the SeaWing

EVIL EVIL EVIL!!! She rightfully died as she should have.

Try to kill Glory again and you will face the wrath of Khan!
Moondance the animus hybrid

Okay, I know she's a bad queen and is evil! But honestly, she's cool. And sorry to people who like Battlewinner, I think she wasn't exactly smart when she heaved herself out of the lava without remembering she would freeze.

P.S. I think sitting in lava is awesome, and she is my favorite character and villain in the books.

She's actually kind of cool. I don't like Battlewinner, but some of the pictures in the 4th graphic novel of her are cool. Other than that, she protected her tribe by torturing another. She protected a tribe by planning to invade another tribe's kingdom.

She might be trying to save them from torture, but that's not the right way.

Another edgy ice boi. He's been my favorite villain for a while now, and simply for that, I say that he wasn't evil. He was a kind dragon, changed by the standards of IceWing society.

10/10 Overall

- Lynx of the IceWings -

He is not evil. Yes, he started a war. And yes, he fathered Darkstalker. But was that his fault? He didn't start the war.

- Nightstalker the NightWing

I basically fell in love with him too, mostly because he's like Winter, and I like Winter.

Silversnow (IceWing and NightWing hybrid)

Wow. I can't even tell why Magnificent was queen. Mangrove came to her every day for Orchid, and every time she acted like it was something new.

Once Glory found the missing RainWings (spoiler alert), Magnificent was all, "Oh, there are fourteen dragons missing? Why should I care, we've got thirty more dragons that will totally not disappear like those ones." I think she has a mental illness (pun intended).

- Sunrise (Rain/Sand Hybrid)

She's not really evil per se, but what she does in The Hidden Kingdom about the captured RainWing problem makes me want to strangle her.

"What's the matter with you?! Your subjects are captured, and you're just sitting on your lazy butt and not doing anything! Seriously, girl!"

Honestly, I hate Qibli. He is so annoying, and Cobra is an assassin. She is better than Vulture, and she is like the best character (besides Freedom).

She was an abusive mom to Qibli. Even when he was being nice, she yelled at him. She also shaped Socorro and Rattlesnake.

Just saying, I love assassins. They are so mysterious and mostly live in the Scorpion Den.

Peril's mother (I love Peril!). To be honest, I never hated her, even though she was cruel in battle training.

Only problem is, why is Kestrel even on here? She's not even evil.

P.S. I feel sorry for her, even though she's not one of my favorites.

Kestrel is one of the biggest jerks ever to walk the planet. She wanted to kill Glory. She chained up Tsunami and treated the Dragonets like dirt.

Kestrel isn't evil. Stupid Queen Scarlet and Chameleon/Soar made her become this way.
