So, uh... a friend of mine and I have a running joke that I'm Dilaf. Yeah.
Probably because I've thought of cosplaying as him, since no one has before (as far as I know), and because I could reasonably play the part. (I'm a theatre person, and Dilaf is a very theatrical, passionate character. I love portraying intense characters.)
So, I don't hate Dilaf, not like I hate some characters in other series like
I think he's a cool villain. I like him as a character. He's just the right amount of infuriating and evil that it's satisfying to read him. He's one of my favorite Brandon villains, simply because he doesn't have complex moral values and is just straight up evil. He's threatening and intimidating to read, even if sometime annoying and frustrating. And like I said before, I'd love to play him, either in cosplay or film or roleplay or whatever.
