The most evil villain poll is still funny to me. Like I voted for the Lord ruler, but I can't believe only one person voted for Raboniel.
She literally committed genocide and is the reason spren can be killed now, like shes way worse than the sorceress or moash.
Yeah it's objectively ridiculous lol. But I think we all know that people vote with their gut, and Raboniel is a fascinating and complex character. She may be evil, but she is not at all hateable imho.
Also, data point of one here, but I had totally forgotten that she even attempted bioweapons/genocide until someone pointed it out in the notes of the og post--and I've read Rhythm of War thrice! It's just not dwelt upon by the canon or the fandom, so it's easy to forget.
