I see; she does have some great ideas, like with the Manual style, but I wasn't agreeing with her in regards to fan interpretations/Complete Monster, where's there little to no room for alternative interpretation.

As for those concerns pertaining to my antagonists, I don't necessarily have doubts regarding some of them as monsters. Schwarze, despite being a princess and having everything handed to her, saw torture as an outlet for her boredom, whereas Uriel was simply a hedonistic man who longed to turn the world on its head. With Savage, he doesn't exactly have a freudian excuse. He thought that his parents loved his sister more than himself, though that's proven as incorrect, and he only became jealous of Eve, mostly because she was more powerful than him, and because she was next in line to become queen. I guess you can argue that he has somewhat of a freudian excuse, but it doesn't really justify him becoming a satanic-like figure (who actually takes the names Satan and Lucifer; in this world, he created evil as a human concept).

Dennis was abused by his father who beat him, forced him into buying him and his friends alcohol, forced him to wear women's clothing, etc. But then he became a serial killer after accidentally killing his daughter, and upon execution, Savage grants him near godlike powers. On him, I was a bit iffy; there's nothing in the present that casts him as sympathetic, but his backstory was unpleasant.
