    I'm making a game ( dont ask lol ) about Irish hero's and Irish villains

    The hero's dont have to be people like Michael Collins or anything.. but people that did something that stood out in history for the better good.


    As for the villains.. Well people that stabbed Ireland in the back.. or did something to upset the country.

    Any names/info/ links would be great.

    Thank you.

    Robert Boyle In 1662 he formulated Boyle’s Law which states that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely related at constant temperature.

    Dorothy Price, instrumental in the fight against tuberculosis, introducing the BCG vaccine to Ireland in the 1930s

    Jocelyn Bell Burnell, arguably Ireland’s greatest living astrophysicist – she discovered pulsars

    I think Saint Brigit might be an interesting one - she's been associated with a fire goddess of the same name. The amalgam of a fire fighting miracle working saint could work well for a board game!

    Villains: Michael O'Dwyer, who approved the Amritsar massacre and may have ordered it.

    The serial killers Burke & Hare were Irish

    The scissor sisters?

    Peig

    Half Hung MacNaghten

    Typhoid Mary

    Diarmait Mac Murchadh, seen as having triggered the Norman invasion and , indirectly, British rule of Ireland.
