Did you actually pay attention to the story? Vayne is behind probably everything in XII. The reason Dalmasca was invaded, because of Vayne who did it for Cid's research and for his own reasons as well, I guess. Because of Vayne (and Cid) Nabudis was blown up. Vayne killed his own brothers (and his father). He has the death of many on his name and in the end of the game even more, you'll see. He does far from nothing.
And you see Vayne in the beginning, with Reks, in his speech with Dalmasca, after Ashe is arrested, in the introduction of Doctor Cid, when Gramis is killed. That's more than one time, no?
I know XII's story is love or hate, but pay a bit of attention even when you're bored, kay? And when you fight him he's not some random badguy who showed up to throw speech at you.
And technically, I wouldn't call Vayne a villain, for some part of his ambition can be called somewhat noble... ^^"
