Draug as a friendly mate to the kids, and (we need a name!) as a parental figure. maybe she could even treat Draug his-self as a kid. He'd hate it, of course.
And I finally found a trope! She could be a
Mother to her Minions. I'd like to point out the second paragraph. Goes well with Manipulative bastard, no? except the emotionally detached part. Although she could be the "stern
fathermother" version.
Not to mention that she'd have
Cute little kids as
minions. They'd be hanging around Draug all the time, anyways, so why not exploit them? And the only reason Draug hasn't gutted her for exploiting them
is because she's, of course, a manipulative b****, right? And, since the kids look up to her as a motherly figure, they don't feel they've been exploited.
This might turn our already (mostly) finished villian (don't tell me you already forgot draug!) into the
woobie...
espesially if we make our new villian (again with not having a name for her!) the
starscream.
Well, "tut, tut, dear Draug. you can be such a child sometimes."
"Hmmph. Not true."
"Don't try to deny it. I know you're upset because I had Julia assassinate <insert notoriously rich person>, when you were going to play 'family' with her. Now, don't forget your axe again today."
"Grooooan. I forgot. It. once. Can't you forget about that?!"
