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*

Richard of Looking for Group is certainly evil, as is Black Mage of 8-Bit Theatre. Belkar of Order of the Stick is confirmed as Chaotic Evil, and although he doesn't outright admit it, he only ever hides it from a Paladin who'd kill him if she ever got a good reading of it. Likewise from Order of the Stick, Elan's evil twin Nale has 'put a lot of effort into this whole evil counterparts theme.'

The Witch in Into the Woods gives an interesting semi-admission: You're so nice... you're not good, you're not bad, you're just... nice. I'm not good, I'm not nice, I'm just right...

While I can't think of a specific line where he admits it, the entire point of Darkwing Duck's nemesis Negaduck is that he is evil where DW is good.

Mixed in with the famous "I'm melting, melting!" of the Wicked Witch of the West is "Who would have thought such a good little girl could destroy all my beautiful wickedness?" Which may count.

Does having your lackeys laude you as evil and accepting with good grace count? Cos Ratigan's flunkies in Great Mouse Detective sing "Even louder we'll shout it, no one can doubt what we know you can do, you're more evil than even you, oh Ratigan! Oh Ratigan! The rest fall behind, to Ratigan! To Ratigan-- the world's greatest criminal mind!" He does take exception to being called a rat, however. For some reason.
