“ | Darth Vader: Now... go, my son. Leave me. Luke Skywalker: No, you're coming with me. I'll not leave you here, I've got to save you. Darth Vader: You already... have. You were right. You were right about me. Tell your sister... you were right. |

~ Darth Vader's last words to his son and ultimate redemption. |
“ | Starscream: Your new battle armor will take things to the next level, my liege! Together we will reunite all Decepticons and once again grind Cybertron under your mighty heel! Megatron: No! Starscream: What? Why? Megatron: ...Because I now know the true meaning of oppression, and have thus lost my taste for inflicting it. Starscream: Ehe, you've clearly been traumatized, master. A good power down and a stroll around the smelting pit will put you back in touch with your inner warlord. Megatron: Enough! The Decepticons are no more, and that is final! |

Inconsistently Heinous villains who achieved redemption and are no longer evil. They have made up for their heinous crimes the best they are able to and no longer need to be punished for them.
A subcategory of Inconsistently Heinous villains in this category are Reformed villains, villains who not only redeem themselves, but also shed their villainy (e.g. SMG3) and may even qualify as Inconsistently Admirable or Near Pure Good (e.g. Thel 'Vadam, Sarah Kerrigan, Sunset Shimmer and Cedric the Sorcerer). If they were initially fallen, they can't qualify as fallen anymore unless they prefer to stay villainous. Another subcategory is Wholly Reformed, Inconsistently Heinous who are now Pure Good and thus subverted ALL of their villainy and corrupting qualities (e.g. Oliver Grayson, Mika Misono, The Collector and Dave Miller.) It takes a LOT of work for a villain who used to commit crimes on the level of Pure Evil to make a turn around and become extremely admirable and incorruptible, but some manage to do it.
Their opposites are Fallen Inconsistently Admirables.
Do not add Remorseful Inconsistently Heinous villains into this category as they have yet to achieve redemption and Redeemed villains don't need to feel regret over their actions anymore once they've achieved it.
NOTE: Redeemed villains can't be Debased due to how Debased are supposed to be remain unredeemed even if they have several redeeming qualities. No matter how a redeemed villain was corrupted before being redeemed, it's still not qualifying as debased.
NEVER add villains that are Completely Evil and those types of villains are completely devoid of any redeeming qualities.
