Villains who can actually serve very important purposes and need to be kept alive, imprisoned, or simply kept around. No matter how sadistic, bloodthirsty, cruel, or even how much they are hated, these villains cannot be destroyed/killed or something terrible can happen. These characters are similar to Virtually Resourceful characters, but are obviously opposed to their alignment. These characters are usually created to keep the story relatively three-dimensional.

Perfect Examples of Pure Evil Villains are:

John Doe From Se7en: The Serial Killer had a tragic past due to his Abusive Mother,Her Abuse to him was the Main Reason he started his killings as an adult and as he used the Seven Deadly Sins as His Motives.

Michael Myers From Halloween: Before Attempting to kill his younger sister, The reason why Michael killed his sister was she rather hang out with her boyfriend rather then taking him out trick or treating. Also Dr. Terence Wynn Placed the curse on him into killing his entire family.

Commander Vic Hoskins From Jurassic World: Victor Thinks the raptors and Indominus rex are a powerful weapon to the Warfares and that he tried to hunt down the Indominus rex.

The Fallen From Transformers: The Fallen and his Seven Brothers were Creating a place called Star Harvesters,before Betraying his brothers and stealing the Matrix and activating the machine and attempted to wipe out all of humanity.

Lord Voldemort From Harry Potter: Tom Riddle grew up in an orphanage after his parents death and was educated to Hogwarts school from 1938 to 1945 before attempting to open the Chamber of secrets.

Freddy Krueger From A Nightmare on Elm Street: Freddy was sent to orphanage to orphanage after his mother's death and was taken in by a severe Alcoholic who is (Indirectly) Responsible for The murders of The death of the springwood children.
