So i dont have a lot of time right now, ill add to this later but I've always enjoyed moral situations that aren't black and white, adds depth to people's choices and decisions. So I already know about a ruler the PC's are going to be introduced to and she's quite the anti-hero. She serves her motives first and silences any opposition but is probably the biggest advocate of magic and its advancement in the entire world. I have a decent idea of how I would RP her, I just don't want the PC's to dislike her, she has reasons for what she does and she treats her people right its just the fact that she's a tyrant that might make the PC's feel disdain for her. She takes most issues into her own hands and is very deceptive, usually a few steps ahead of others, but the crutch from all of this is that she is possibly one of the most over-confident people you'll ever meet. Think of her as the intellectual who would do whatever it takes to expand their power/knowledge. She may be a central NPC to the story and i'm just concerned that her motives and reasoning might not be carried across to the PC's very well.

Someone like this would probably have underlings that would pre-warn you before meeting her that she is just like that. Also a fairly low knowledge local check should let you know this.
