YMMV and The Great Character Alignment Debate. YMMV itself is an index, not a trope. Removing apparent non-example of Badass Decay. The Crowning Moment Of Awesome entry is arguing with itself. I don\'t think you can SUBVERT Complete Monster. And someone can\'t be a Base Breaker AND a Creator\'s Pet.

** The important part of that phrase is "in this world". When the statement was made he was a dream avatar in the Tellann warren. The Tyrant had been drawn into that world expressly because he couldn't be challenged in physical reality.
