I'm hoping for someone scheming and political, a chess master villain.

A villain that's the opposite gender of the PC, and is romanceable?

Well for the major villain, that all depends on the theme of the whole story. A main villain is the story's arc, and I don't think I am up to that but minor villains along the way?

 

- An enemy like Aria. So we come to a spaceport or something that's led efficiently but ruthlessly, and slowly have to take down the regime. Someone who is not outright evil though, but stands in our way. They admire us even while getting angry that we are being a pain in their side. In the end, we can spare them, or not.

 

- An ally, but instead of one of our companions, someone like Kelly. We have always had these extra crewmen on board to provide atmosphere but little else, so they wouldn't be suspected. Someone kind and understanding, but a traitor to the real villain at the final moment. They gathered intel.

 

- Really bring up the western themes. There has been signs of someone dogging you, sending enemi8es after you. When you meet them, they are just a teenager, upset that you killed someone in their family.

I guess this is a joke.

But I realllly like this.

That would be seen as a crime in this feminist world of today we live in. People be all like "The villain is female?! Men are so misogynistic"

Actually, as a feminist I love female villains. Heck, I love female mooks. I always get excited when I notice the mooks I was killing were female. Nothing quite says we treat women the same as men as we bothered to make the mooks be women too. I just don't like it when a female villain is a villain for well, female reasons. The incompetent woman on a power trip when you recruit Grunt? Perfect mission villain. Villains that seem to exist to be sexy and seduce the main bad guy like Benezia appeared to be at first, less so, the fact there was more to her was awesome..

 

Not a Bioware thing but something I keep seeing in different mediums is ability to have babies being a major affect on a woman characters motivations. While it is fine in dramas and similar things that deal with issues like that, it just seems weirdly odd coming out of fantasy/action/sci-fi themed media. Especially when the villain is making actions that suit those high stakes genres and then reveal its because they are infertile. Or even infertility being connected to their villainy. Its just really odd.

I want a female antagonist. A femme fatale.

 

At first she's someone close to you. Maybe part of the crew, maybe an alien you meet. You are on good terms and she's very flirty with you, but it never goes anywhere... it just keeps you interested and distracted. Even if you aren't into her, she uses her charm to get people to like her, to convince them to join her, maybe to get better deals. She sets up win/win scenarios for herself while you have to avoid getting hurt by that. She's devilishly clever, ruthless and pragmatic. It's hard to dislike her though, she always has a good excuse for her actions.

 

Over the course of the game you slowly realize she's playing you, using you. You might even accuse her of it, but you can't stop her. She will lead you into a trap and leave you to die once you are no longer useful to her. Of course, she won't explain her master plan then either but you do find out that she's much more dangerous than anyone thought.

 

 

Alternatively I would like a game without a villain at all. Oh, there are opponents and they are quite evil from your perspective... but in the end they are just soldiers obeying orders. At first you suspect a cunning mastermind behind everything, someone who is using unconventional tactics you can't predict. They don't seem to make sense at all, but you struggle nonetheless. Much later you realized you aren't up against one villain and his army, no... you're up against a bureaucracy. There is no single leader whose death would stop everything. Even when some of your opponents agree that hostilities should be stopped, the war goes on because their government is awfully slow to react and adapt. Also, incompetent.

I support this and also create-every-NPC. I think the countless hours you'd have to (or get to) spend creating face after face after face after face would be an agonising chore and not worth it in any way whatsoever, but we deserve to tailor the look of the characters in our story.
