I think that we can agree that the Fright Knight Embelm is the one for the
evil of the world, but ideas will conflict. Nebachaned (ne-ba-ka-ned) is my
lord of the Dark Forces. Someone else could have a completely different fig as
the evil lord.

Actually, Karl, I think the intent is to have many *different* kingdoms
on the CW map, rather than have everyone operating in the same kingdom.
Thus Nebachaned could be threatening your area of Castle World, while
Arjan's Qaballah and Craig's Mephisto are Forces of Evil in other areas of
the world.  (Why is it that most of the 'bad guys' are all wizards, anyway?)

You do bring up a good point - remember that this is a *shared* world and
that we all need to cooperate.  So it would be a good idea if people did
*not* create characters that are 'The Supreme Ruler of All Evil' (unless
of course the creator realizes that they aren't *actually* the Supreme
Ruler of All Evil, and they're just claiming to be.)

As for emblems - I think they're going to mean different things in
different realms. The Lions could be the 'bad guys' in one realm and the
Bat Lord and his followers the 'good guys'.  (Picture a sort of Robin-Hood
arrangement, where a young exiled Lord takes to the mountains vowing to
exact revenge for the murder of his parents...and to frighten his enemies,
he forges a metal mask in the shape of a bat, because "these petty lordlings
are a cowardly and superstitious lot..."  Legends arise about a monstrous
sword-weilding 'Bat Man' who preys upon the King's caravans...*)
