my novel class teacher said you have to give your villian some morality, but still be a negative ideal toward your hero for example:

say your villian steals from the elderly, but gives charity to orphaneges...

your villian must have something human about him, or he is a monster, with no interesting features or background...Rang is wise and respectful, but a murderer none the less.. his motives are bad, but some things about him are good so you can see he is in his way..human
