O my f-list, I turn to you for aid! ...In this case, for aid in collection of trivia, that skill at which so many of you excel.

I am trying to compile a list of fictional characters who self-identify as evil. (Ideally with a note as to whether said self-identification is ironic or not -- though this is, of course, subject to interpretation.) Said self-identification can happen at any point in the character's arc, but must be present self-identification; "I am evil," rather than "I was evil."

Starting with this guy! *points at new icon*

Oh, duh. I just realized the characters who absolutely /do/ qualify, in a serious work, even. Though you have to get to the third book of the series to run into them -

The Markhagir and his followers from the Kushiel series. Arguably also at least one or two people earlier in the series, but that group is really the evil side of the Zoroastrian equation. Their motto is 'ill thoughs, ill words, ill deeds'.

*wry* I could never make it past the second book.

But those guys sound like they totally count.
