So she's only a character to be a jerk and nothing more in order to contrast with your other characters? It's possible to do that without giving her zero likability.

For example, let's say.... Luna. She contrasts with my other characters because she has a disjointed sense of justice, while some of my other character have the usual form of justice. Also, Luna is only one of my three characters out for revenge. However, I didn't just make her so that she'd be hated - she still has things that make her an actual character, like goals (and why they mean so much to her), flaws, and strengths.

Or... let's say V from the roleplay Odyssey. Though he was certainly evil, he still had his goals and character - he wasn't just created to be an obstacle. Similar to the Hyper Division in the roleplay Secret Discord - though some (Hikari) are definitely less likable than others (Kiko), they still had their character, goals, and why it means so much to them. They have trust - too much trust - in GUN. That makes them more character.

...now that I think about it, I think this is less just Andy and more many of your characters, tbh.
