Villains who have either attempted to take their own lives, whether they have succeeded in doing so or been overly eager/bold in the face of death. There can be several different reasons for this including remorse, honor, knowledge of worse fates, despair, a greater cause, insanity, nihilism, taking others with them, villainous martyrdom or even redemption. Some of these villains might even be kamikazes, as they may attempt to bring down someone else with them (such as the hero), whether this means actually killing them or simply doing something such as bringing down their reputation.

Some of these suicidal villains didn't necessarily directly cause their suicides (whether attempted or successful) and were simply eager or bold in the face of death. This includes villains who, when faced with a potentially fatal issue (such as a medical emergency), they didn't do anything to save themselves. In some cases, they might have even attempted to make the issue worse.

It is important to note that if the villain does take their own life it must be ON PURPOSE to qualify as Suicidal. Villains who accidentally kill themselves DO NOT QUALIFY Villains who committed fake suicide and never wanted to die really, do not count either.

Many of these villains can be tragic as suicide is portrayed extremely seriously or even sympathetically in both fiction and real-life, so it is no doubt that a majority of these villains have suffered such experiences that have twisted them over the edge of taking their own lives.

However, some of these villains can be Complete Monster as they can also take their lives in an extremely fiendishly selfish or malevolent ways, many of which being where they try to take down the heroes with them, only to fail or even take their lives in a cowardly or egotistical way.

Notes[]

• IMPORTANT: It is to note that even cowards can ALSO qualify for this category. While they cannot be nihilists, cowards can occasionally take their own lives as a way to escape a situation they know they don’t have control over. Regardless, if they take their own life ON PURPOSE, they can still qualify.
• Villains who took their own lives CANNOT be Karma Houdinis, even if they took their lives to escape punishment or attempted.
