Every villain does what they do for a reason. The Card-Carrying Villain wants to be evil and cool. The Diabolical Mastermind wants money... more money, most likely. The Stalker with a Crush "wants" The Hero. The Evil Overlord wants to Take Over the World (Of Course!). The Vain Sorceress? She wants to be beautiful. But she doesn't stop at wanting herself to be beautiful. She has to be more beautiful than any other woman in the kingdom, on the planet, or in the universe. How can she achieve this? By taking out the competition. There are two ways to do this: Supernatural Means: Essentially suck the beauty or youth out of every woman and girl within your scope. The side effects for the victims can range from simply becoming unattractive to aging rapidly to inhuman mutation. Traditional Means: Good old-fashioned murder. Recommended if you only consider one person as a threat to your beauty. A Sub-Trope of Driven by Envy, this plot is Older Than Feudalism. Long before the days of The Brothers Grimm's jealous Wicked Stepmothers, Classical goddesses had a habit of getting very jealous if a mortal was considered more beautiful than them. Psyche, for one, became a target of Aphrodite, the Greek Goddess of Love and Beauty herself, but, as usual, was saved by The Power of Love. There's also the Stage Mom variation, in which a woman wants her daughters to be more beautiful than some other girl, usually her stepdaughter. Very rarely will you find this situation Gender Flipped, but the occasional Sissy Villain does have this motivation. May actually entail So Beautiful, It's a Curse for the person who is deemed a threat. She seldom whines about it, though; perhaps because she is too busy trying to stay alive. The Blood Bath is often a method a character may use to attain this. A modern and mundane equivalent may involve cosmetic surgery. If Frozen Face ensues, the character will get no sympathy; then, since she has her looks, she doesn't want any. Examples |

A male example is done in Mega Man (Classic), but with strength instead of beauty: Bass, Mega Man's rival, thinks he's stronger than everyone else, is completely stuck-up, and is jealous of Mega Man's strength and wants to eliminate him. Sooner or later, this will be done. | |

One of the possible quests in Darkstone features Mika the witch, who placed a curse on a nearby village. If any of the women in the village ever became more beautiful than Mika, she would be turned to stone. Although Mika was very beautiful in her youth, by the time of the game she's about a million years old, so all of the women are stone. The player character must locate the Mirror of Lies, which will convince her that she's still beautiful; once she believes that, she'll undo the curse. | |

Subverted in Snow White: A Tale of Terror. Claudia isn't so much wanting to be fairest in the land as to be more beautiful than Lilli for two reasons: first, because she can surpass the shadow of Frederich's first wife, second, because her beauty is all she has left as a wife after a stillbirth leaves her barren. | |

In a Richie Rich comic book story, Reggie Van Dough asks his Magic Mirror who's the richest kid of all, and the mirror answers Richie Rich while trying to guess where to place Reggie in the ranking of rich kids. Reggie didn't like this, as this magic mirror was the creation of a Dr. Nimblebrain who was under his employ, and apparently the scientist found out that the mirror was programmed to be too honest with its reply. | |

Hidden City's Mistress of the Manor is a renown beauty with many suitors who dislikes having competitors, and repeatedly threatens to turn her maid Juliette into a frog likely out of jealousy of her beauty. In the Christmas Crime case, she volunteers to help the heroes defeat the Snow Queen not out of altruism, but because she doesn't want the gorgeous Snow Queen to rival her. | |

Denshi Sentai Denziman: The Big Bad, Queen Hedrian, ruler of the Vader Clan, travels around space with her minions ruining planets because she wants to be the only beautiful thing in the universe. All the monsters she creates are ugly, asymmetrical beasts. She even has a servant with the ability to transform into a mirror for her to ask "Whose the fairest?" to. In one episode she sends out a tooth monster to ruin the teeth of children for having nicer teeth than her. | |

One of the most memorable of The Real Ghostbusters episodes "Janine, You've Changed" introduced a creature that feeds on vanity — she grants your wish to be more and more beautiful but slowly drains your humanity in the process until you become one of them. Janine accepted its deal to make her "perfect" and was almost fully transformed before Egon pulled her back with The Power of Love. | |

One villainess from an early Ravenloft module became one because she became insanely jealous of a fellow priestess who was slightly more beautiful (Cha 18) than she (Cha 17). Apparently being more beautiful than 98% of humanity just wasn't enough for her, so long as someone even better-looking existed. | |

Spectra from Danny Phantom. In her first episode, she feeds off children's misery so that she'll remain looking youthful. Her second appearance is similar to the Totally Spies example below, except she used the parts for a body for herself. | |

The Fairest from Changeling: The Lost — come on, it's right there in the name — aren't all like this. However, the special attentions visited on them by the Gentry have left them more prone to losing touch with reality in the face of a crisis, and a sidebar in one book hints that some Fairest stoop to rather desperate measures once age starts to catch up with them... | |

"Exotic" Adrian Street would not tolerate the existence of any men in professional wrestling who were prettier than he was. Fortunately for most of his opponents, Street had an inflated belief in how pretty he really was. | |

In Sailor Moon Queen Nehelenia became obsessed with staying young and beautiful forever, and when she saw in her mirror her old and ugly future self, she decided to steal dreams from people, turning them into living dead, and she intended to implement it everywhere. | |

In Lucy Daniel Raby's Nickolai of the North, the Wicked Witch Magda is pretty obsessed with power too, but her chief priority is her matchless beauty which can be maintained only by sucking out childhood from children and turning them into obedient marionettes with no feelings. | |

Averted in Once Upon a Time of all places. Despite the rivalry between Regina (the Evil Queen) and Snow White being one of the main plot points, this trope is never cited as a reason for it (aside from a mention by Snow in the first episode that's subsequently ignored). Regina actually wants Snow dead because she holds her responsible for the death of her true love, and subsequent loss of happiness. There's never even any indication that Snow is supposed to be more beautiful than than Regina, personal preferences aside anyway. | |

In Digimon Frontier, the villainess Ranamon is considered the Digital World's most beautiful inhabitant, but she gets murderously jealous of Izumi and Izumi's Spirit Evolutions, seeing them as threats to her title. In one scene, the villain Mercurymon deliberately says he thinks Izumi is more beautiful, knowing it would rile Ranamon up and make her fight harder. | |

Street Fighter has a male example in Vega, a Spanish ninja whose defining trait is narcissism and admiration of beauty, especially his own, to the point that he goes berserk if any damage is done to his face and tries to murder those he deems ugly. He retains these traits in the Street Fighter live-action movie, Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie, and Street Fighter II V. | |

In Zenescope's Grimm Fairy Tales, one story focuses on a cheerleader's step-mother who is told a darker, more violent version of Snow White. It turns out that the step-mother has been poisoning her daughter because she's jealous of both her beauty and her fame on the school's cheerleading squad (back in her youth, the step-mother was the best cheerleader). | |

In The Smurfs (1981) episode "Beauty Is Only Smurf Deep", Periwinkle the pixie is so vain and beautiful that when her magic mirror shows Vanity Smurf to be just as handsome, she gets so jealous that she goes as far as to give her competition a lethal mud bath... but fortunately for her, Vanity is such an understanding soul when it comes to the burdens that she bears (of being perfect in a world of imperfection) that she allows the Smurfs to save Vanity without putting up a fight. | |
