1. After rewatching "Men in Black: The Series", i have an educated guess about how RWBY's take of Jafar might look like. Alpha is an example of what Jafar would become if he succeeded. His cruelty and extraterrestrial arms are similar to Zahhak. Zahhak have snakes coming out of his shoulders, and Jafar became a literal snake in the final battle, so i believe that his RWBY incarnation would be something like Zahhak. Maybe a mutated grimm who became sentient and now craving for power. Before becoming the extraterrestrial monster he is, Alpha created MIB for what he see as a noble cause, but later corrupted himself with his hunger for power, either because he came to consider MIB as too weak for his new vision or because he saw himself as an angel of retribution like Frollo did. Would you like my idea for RWBY Jafar more as like Alpha and (maybe) Zahhak, or more like the mutated sadistic grimm? The sadistic part is an important differential factor, because Alpha have no interest in sadistic joy despite being pure evil.

2+4C. So far, i plan Amadeus to be the scariest post-mortem killer. Molly might not agree, with her struggle against the Tweedle twins (especially Tweedle Dum), but objectively speaking, Amadeus can make sense as a character who's hated even by its own actor. Possibly less hated than Joffrey though, if only because he was strong and brave like Tanner and some other grown ups PE villains in GOT universe, in contrast to Joffrey's lack of action. I can assume it's a big reason for why the actors of Tanner, Ramsey and such doesnt hate their own characters. Fox and Cat would be vile on their own right, despite being truly protective toward each other. Cat would be the most brutal killer (along with Cheshire) and Fox would be the most theatrical due to being an actor in his dormant years. Josh is planned to be nothing like Fox. He'll probably be what TV Tropes calls "starscream", and you had the idea of making him similar to Slagar the Cruel (a backstabbing fox) and the strangers from "TellTale's The Walking Dead" (abducting children, including trying to kill Jane, which eventually inspired Maureen to do the same). If Josh was a character in "Police Legend", which character does he remind you the most? And if Fox and Cat were in "Neimerhold", which characters does they remind you the most?

3. Sergio and his axe-crazy brother sounds similar to Sirrus and Achenar from "Myst" games. I would like to hear more about Achenar's redemption :-). If Kar was invincible, does it mean he got a fate worse than death, or "Xylus" is a story where demigods (i assume Kar became a physical death god/demigod) can be killed? I know Kar was pure evil, just like Toxocara, but does it apply for Sergio too? If he's ok with the concept of killing his own flesh and blood, then i don't recall he have redeeming qualities.

4A+4B. Until i'll send his human form, I'll send you some of the best rat form's sketches in mail. One of them is really similar to a human, except for his sharp teeth. His original plan was to abduct sentient beings, kill them and use their organs to rebuilt his wife. In my current stage of writing, which is episode 21, his wife is mostly a hand, a brain and eyes. The final part of his pre-cloning stage comes after he kills one of his bribed officer Arthur's soldiers. A blonde girl who never wronged with anyone. Just beause she reminds him of his wife when she was younger. When Arthur finds out with the help of Jaden, he gets rightfully pissed off and decide to redeem himself even if it will kill him ("you want to kill him? That honest and loyal dog? He can't do anything you haven't done already. You killed your own father, expecting your enemies to stand still while you pillage them and feel joy out of tormenting people! If anything, he should kill you! Even with fine suits and fancy dinners, you're still a darn dirty rat! This is your last day, vermin, so enjoy your wretched empire while you can"). Arthur is hypocrite, but he have a solid point. And now, just another example of the big bad's heinous level:

Vulture comes back with the dead body of a big brown dog. He was asked to kill Jaden, but killed someone else due to mistaken identity.

Mengele: "you must be exausted, pal. Working in the heat of the sourthen wall like that. I can see why you mixed this female dog with Jaden. You must've missed the tiny detail of pregnancy".

Vulture: "Wait what?! I'm so sorry, boss. I thought it was a vicious dog. Just like you and me. I had no wish to kill a pregnant lady".

Mengele: "Irrelevant. I could kill her myself with ease. I just asked you to kill Jaden. A male dog! But nevermind. I'm not angry".

Vulture: "That's a relief. I came here thinking you're going to kill me".

And then, Vulture fell to the ground with a bullet to his chest.

Mengele: "Good thinking".

5+4D. On topic: If you want to read more about the Iranian revolution, i advice you to look for "Persepolis". It's a graphic novel by Marjane Satrapi, who tell us about her perspective of these dark times. I used to have part 1 at home. Harsh to read and important to know. Jester would agree with everything written in there.

Off topic: Maybe you had chuckles from Joker's antics from the same reason some might find the part where Jones killed the 3 blind mice as black humor. Jones was more greedy than proud, unlike Joker, but both could still be argued as pride. Does Abigail Williams reminds you of Cindi, or she reminds you of Cinder Fall?
