Villain Dom 101

This is the story where the monster is invited, the threat is wanted, and the ending is negotiated before the curtain rises.

This course explores what it means to embody the Villain Dom: the craft of inhabiting compelling fictional menace, the negotiation and safety work that makes dark roleplay possible, and the skills of moving fluidly between the character and the caring person behind it. Over six lessons, you will move from orientation through the practical and psychological dimensions of bringing a villain to life in consensual kink.
