*CompleteMonster: [[TheEvilPrince Prince Vladimir Galitsky]] is Igor's brother-in-law, entrusted with the safety of his sister--Igor's wife--and the town of Putivl when Igor leaves for battle. [[TheCaligula Galitsky]] surrounds himself with drunkards and deserters, seizing power and starting a regime of debauchery, violently assaulting the locals and molesting the girls. His cronies kidnap a girl whom he holds captive and rapes, despite her pleas and the pleas of her friends. Galitsky wants to seize the throne of Putivl for good, planning to deplete the royal treasury, punish whomever he wants in whichever way he likes, and [[SerialRapist rape all the girls he fancies]]. Even when Galitsky's sister tries to reason with him, he merely mocks her. The women of Putivl reveal that [[AWolfInSheepsClothing Galitsky has always been like this]] and has simply ceased to hide his true colors after Igor left. They admit that Galitsky and his men are "worse than the enemies, worse than the Cumans", which says a lot, considering that the Cumans are responsible for multiple violent raids of Russian towns.

** Galitsky is never shown receiving comeuppance for his actions.
** Skula and Yeroshka, Galitsky's minions, rush over to another side the moment they see Igor returning and fiercely deny any involvement with Galitsky's court. The people decide to spare them punishment since everyone is rejoicing.
** Konchak has a code of honor, loves his daughter and respects his WorthyOpponent right enough, but he also delights in raiding and destroying towns and explicitly orders that the prettiest of the captive women be brought to his tent. Not a single word is said against it.
*** To be fair: that particular campaign was started by Igor, and in the original poem it's made clear his warriors were all right with stealing fair Polovtsian maids. ValuesDissonance at its best: Igor was frowned upon only because the campaign was hopeless from the start and he wasted many troops.

* JerksAreWorseThanVillains: The whole plot is kicked off when Prince Igor goes to war with the Cuman khans Gzak and Konchak who are responsible for devastating raids on Russian towns. However, the character viewed as the vilest one both in- and out-of-universe is Vladimir Galitsky, Igor's own brother-in-law, who starts a regime of debauchery when Igor is away on campaign and plans to seize power in Putivl for good. It doesn't help that the actual central villain Khan Konchak is revealed to be an honourable AffablyEvil man and FriendlyEnemy to Igor.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: Igor's captivity scene can include these, depending on the singers’ interpretation. If Konchak looks less intimidating than Igor, his behavior may seem less that of a ProudWarriorRaceGuy and more like: "I'm your hotel manager. Everything okay? Any complaints?"
