So what makes a character a Magnificent Bastard? Let's break it down:
 
* '''[[The Chessmaster|They are brilliant]] and utterly devious''', to an almost breathtaking, mind-boggling degree. Call it [[The Chessmaster|genius]], call itor [[Xanatos Roulette|virtual omniscience]], but they always seem to [[Batman Gambit|know what everyone else is planning at any given moment]], and exactly how to arrange the game so [[Xanatos Gambit|they win every time]].
* '''[[Manipulative Bastard|They are smooth operators.]]''' They'll always know exactly what to say to [[Manipulative Bastard|position you where they want you]], [[Xanatos Gambit|always have a backup strategy]] and [[Xanatos Speed Chess|never loses their cool]]. Even if on the remote chance something happens that wasn't in their plans, [[Xanatos Speed Chess|you'd never know it]] [[I Meant to Do That|from their actions]].
* '''[[Visionary Villain|They have a goal]],''' and are not going to stop until they've completed it...[[Hidden Agenda Villain|whatever it is]]. To that end they will do almost anything. They'll move heaven and hell, and we ''want'' to see them succeed. Despite their choice of tactics, they are [[Noble Demon|rarely if ever pointlessly cruel]], and have reason for everything they do.
