Line 4:
Often too large or wild to be in the Big Bad's main quarters, the Pet is usually kept in a cage, cavern, dungeon, or any other secluded place. The Big Bad Pet's job is usually to guard the [[Supervillain Lair|Big Bad's lair]], or to viciously consume the hero once the latter is thrown in a [[Snake Pit|pit of death]]. It's usually too [[Dumb Muscle|dumb]] to actually be given orders, so it sort of serves as a [[Personal Mook]] for the villain.
To elaborate, Big Bad Pets are, well, [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|big and bad]]. They usually are composed of [[Our Dragons Are Different|dragons]], [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent|snakes]], [[Sea Monster|sea monsters]], [[Our Giants Are Bigger|giants]], [[Panthera Awesome|lions]], [[
Compare [[Little Bad Pet]], which is the much smaller, less frightening, yet more devious evil pet.
