The Villain-  Adonis, leader of the savage cannibal pirates. His moral compass is non-existent and is on a level of sadomasochistic survival. Violence, terror and the lack of survivors who come into contact with them are his tools. His anger is purely on vengeance.

Justification-  The savage cannibal pirates were one of the last people on the ground to escape the Blight and mostly forgotten by the surviving masses. He and his small band of refugees made the choice to survive no matter the morality of it.

He wants anyone outside of his group to suffer as much as he can for as long as he can.
