Of course the real problem with RPing the villain is that your character is, for all intensive purposes, a throw-away toon. Â Because once they become known it's very hard to change that reputation.
Againn with Krell, this is doable. He's a cute little charming Lalafell and pretty much as long as Ruru steers clear he's safe to operate in the open since no one else knows he's Ruru's brother. They just see another Lala with an odd name.
