The Hero's Journey

“We have not even risk the adventure alone.

For the heroes of all time have gone before us.

The labyrinth is thoroughly known.

We have only to follow the thread of the hero path.”

~ Joseph Campbell

Most Wanted Villains

Vengeful Villain of Television

The television villain likes to hypnotize you.  She gets you to sit on your butt, eat potato chips and drink pop.  While your body turns to flab, she attacks your mind ~ zapping your own creative genius and keeping you “entertained”.  One time the Vengeful Villain of Television convinced an entire country to go to war!

Masquerade

Masquerade likes to get others to blend in, follow the crowd, and be something they’re not.  She loves to visit the forest and trick all the baby animals to find new mothers.  She hates anything unique.  She is always trying to sell the latest fashion trends.  Remember ripped jeans?  That was her work.  One time she even convinced an astronaut that he was really a submarine captain – the spaceship is still at the bottom of the ocean!

The Shadow

The Shadow loves to encourage thinking bad about others.  He loves to make big announcements about teachers being wrong, parents being unfair, and kids being lazy.  Sometimes he goes to talent shows just to boo and tell others they suck.  One time he even threw an “unbirthday party” for a friend, wishing that he’d never been born!

Team of Total Downers

The Team of Total Downers encourage others to give up.  They like to visit sports teams at halftime and throw a “you’re gonna lose” party in the locker room.  They teach baby birds that their wings don’t work.  They love to convince kids that they can’t make a difference.  One time they even convinced an entire planet to stop caring for the earth!
