I “mirror group” of your PCs is a great tactic to amp up the tension. I love it.

Thanks for the comment!

I always want to spice things up with a villain, at least when I play with the same group over and over again. The most interesting villain constellation for me was when I once was when we made a story around finding the philosophers stone. Each of my players had a different reason for why they needed this stone in particular and then there was a second adventurer group who wanted the same… while their motives were good… their actions weren’t.

They were so desperate to find the philosophers stone that they would burn down whole villages or kill anyone who wanted to do the same. The group was basically a mirror image of the PCs that would impact them quite a bit.
