For all the possibilities there are, personally I would like it to be a character who was only introduced in the new saga. Having the main villain be someone who's associated with Freelancer (the Counselor) just seems lazy to me. The Chairman, well again, I'd prefer it not to be him in favour of someone new. It'll get boring if every villain is somehow associated with PFL.

In all honesty, I'd like it to be a (WEALTHY) military contractor who was a supplier to the UNSC and now is taking advantage of the War being over and projects like Freelancer falling apart and leaving valuable technology around behind them. Someone who's purely motivated by money. We've had the villains motivated by power before (the Meta), and it would fit perfectly with the motivations shown by Felix and Locus, who are primarily concerned about their payment.
