Characters who possess the qualities of traditional heroesâsuch as strength, intelligence, and leadershipâbut use them to pursue selfish, destructive, or immoral goals. Unlike typical villains, they often believe their actions are justified or necessary, and may even view themselves as saviors or protectors in their own narrative. These characters blur the line between heroism and villainy, challenging conventional definitions of good and evil by embodying heroic traits while engaging in morally corrupt behavior.
