I have to say I'm reading this with great interest. While I don't play a villain, I do ADORE the nasty bads. I tend to want my characters to be in a massive amount of danger all the time and having one or more antagonists is pure fun for me.
I do love role playing the victim but it also doesn't mean my characters are push overs or door mats either. Deep, dark, rich story lines are completely awesome and with really good RPers (no drama queens, know how to keep IC and OOC separate, communicate OOCly constantly to make sure things are still good, have the limits and expectations conversation beforehand and during), there's nothing else like it.
