Merciless Mercenary

Create a villain who is a mercenary, inflicting damage for personal gain irrespective of the harm caused to society.

Mercenaries, renowned for their ability to shift sides for a higher price, have the potential to be compelling villains in historical fiction. Write about a mercenary with no loyalties, driven only by the pursuit of wealth and power, heedless of the moral implications of their actions. Look into themes of greed, the erosion of morality, and the destructive impact of such an individual’s deeds on society.
