Frienemy (villain idea)
Here's one for you DM's that want an antagonist, who treat the party friendily.
A villain's ambition is usually dreadful, self-centered, & all around destructive. That being said, a villain's ambition & a villain's personality can differ greatly. Sure they may want to plunge the world into an endless abyss of madness, but they are also going to be fun-loving & friendly all along the way!
