Poll of the Week: Unforgivably Villainous

Poll of the Week: Unforgivably Villainous

In Star Trek the various crews are often challenged by various enemies from across the galaxy. However, these antagonists are rarely seen beyond a single episode once our heroes defeat them. Sometimes we barely know anything about their personalities beyond what we can guess based on their actions. Their primary purpose is to provide conflict for our heroes to overcome in that episode or movie. While these foes of the week work well we sometimes get to meet a villain again and again over multiple stories. They could only show up in a few episodes scattered through the series or be one of the central antagonists for the entire series, but we really get to know them and learn about their personality and their background. Sometimes this information can put their actions into context and help us understand why they do the evil things that they do.
The Vorta encountered during the Dominion War aren’t completely loyal to the Founders by choice. They have been genetically engineered to view the Founders as gods.  While he’s certainly no hero, Khan is similarly dealing with the extreme ambition that his augmentation has left him with. This by no means forgives them of any wrongdoing but it might make us see these villains in a slightly better light. This week’s poll asks you which villain you feel the least sorry for. Who do you feel has the least going for them in your eyes?
Which Star Trek villain do you find the least sympathetic? Be sure to cast your vote!
