* '''Exploited''': ???
Dracone plays up the "scary-looking monster" bit in order to scare away a group of bullies who were picking on a kid.
* '''Defied''': ???All monsters in the setting are evil.



* '''Played for Drama''': Dracone tries to make friends and even volunteers to help out in the community, but each time, he is treated with revulsion for his monstrous appearance. He never stands up for himself because he knows that it will just cause the people around him to think that they were right about him. After putting up with it for years, though, he's had enough of it and decides that HumansAreTheRealMonsters for not even questioning their own prejudices, so [[ThenLetMeBeEvil he might as well become the monster that they made him out to be.]]
