If you look closely, the theme of humanity-as-villain is central to most of the game lines, with Vampire being the one exception. Some editions of Changeling shied away from the Humanity-as-villain narrative, but whether the enemy was the Shadow Court or uncaring nobles, those foes can be traced back to what humanity’s abuses have done to the Fae. At first glance, it seems as though every game has its own villain: Werewolf has the Wyrm Mage has the Nephandi, and in some editions the Technocracy Wraith has, well, everyone and Changeling has humanity itself. Who is the true underlying villain in the original “big five” games of the World of Darkness? I can’t really think of a more loaded question related to White Wolf’s flagship IP.
