Villain Alignment Issues

Alright, me and Stitch discussed this and we have come to following conclusion:

While we don't want to limit anyone's creativity, there is a reason we have the Villain civil war. The human villains are, well, supposed to be human (or at least non-animals) and animals that are over-overwhelmingly aligned with humans (pets, canon animal sidekicks, etc.) They are not simply an alternate side for people to put animal villains on.

Not to single anyone out, but there has been a number of recent applications that are putting animals on the human side when those animals would clearly have no affiliation with humans (being wild or stray animals and the like).

Not to try blame around or anything. Obviously, we were remiss in making the distinction clear enough. But we would really appreciate if people would try to keep the number of animals on the human side to a minimum, and only doing so when the animal would be so unlikely to not be aligned with humans.

Best regards!

And here, I thought my reasons for making Lucky an HV were good ones... Do you want me to change his alignment?

Not at all. This is less a "Never make any animal a human villain ever" and more a "Try to avoid it unless you have a great reason for it."

I think we can all agree that all the drama and characterization surrounding the Lucky character would indicate a pretty great reason for him to be a human villain, especially the way you have done it.

Sorry about that. I edited Hunter's application to make him an animal villain. XD
