I recall asking this a loooonnng time ago but I need your guys help again. I am drafting the story for a new series that combines romantic and comedy elements mixed in with ninja elements. So basically it's Love Hina and Negima meets Naruto without Mr. Fanservice. I won't go way into the plot nor characters since it's only in planning stages (i have some time off from my current series).

What I need is some good ideas for bag guys. Much like Naruto, eachc character has an ability passed down generation by generation by those in thier family. I have used many abilities (abilities vary from people using fire to using pencils to create illusions) for characters. I'm running low on ideas for bad guys. If you guys could, suggestions or ideas for bad guys would be awesome.

Well, this may be way off what you want, but have you considered having some useless villain henchmen with useless powers?

the movie "Tongan Ninja" was great for that sort of thing

Abilities for the evil ones?

Since they are bad people I think you could make their powers more dark and disturbing! But how specific do you want?

Basically, these students are either evil or heart or the main bad dude capyured them and turned them evil.

Some examples of cronies with abilities:

- a guy who can control blood
- a guy who uses wires to sap away energy
- a guy who fires needles from his skin
- a guy who uses a drilling device on his arm
- a guy who has frog genes

How about a character who can go to sleep and, in their dreams, they can manipulate other people's behaviors. Or, make them do something. . . I don't know. I considered doing it with a bad character in a book of mine, bust it just didn't work for the story.

That's definitely true. But it might work for a minion or something though. .

-Someone who can't really fight well, but his/her wounds heal, so he/she can't be killed.
-Someone who creates nightmares in peoples' minds.
-A character who can somehow "connect" with another, and any injuries one gets, the other gets as well.
