History PlayingWith / InbredAndEvil

** Because of inbreeding, Charles is a redhead -- a ''actual'' recessive genetic trait. And because he's a redhead, he's an EvilRedhead.

** Charles was conceived when his mother [[ChildByRape was raped]] [[ParentalIncest by her father]]. He grew up to be an AxCrazy SerialKiller who [[ImAHumanitarian eats his victims]]; in other words, a CompleteMonster.

* '''Parodied''': Charles is an IneffectualSympatheticVillain suffering from genetic defects from his inbreeding.

** Bob was abusive to and raped his daughter Alice, and wouldn't be any different to Charles.

** Bob was abusive and raped to his daughter Alice, and likewise abused wouldn't be any different to Charles.

* '''Straight''': Alice and Bob engage in VillanousIncest and their son Charles grows up to be a villain.

* '''Straight''': Bob was conceived by BrotherSisterIncest and grew up to be a villain.

** Bob was conceived when his mother [[ChildByRape was raped]] [[ParentalIncest by her father]]. He grew up to be an AxCrazy SerialKiller who [[ImAHumanitarian eats his victims]]; in other words, a CompleteMonster.
** Bob is an EvilOverlord from a long dynastic line of incestuous marriages, who grew worse with each inbred generation.

** Bob is a villain whose parents [[KissingCousins are first cousins]].
** Bob's parents were stepsiblings or adoptive siblings, and not genetically related.
** Bob was conceived by BrotherSisterIncest but at worst he's a garden variety JerkAss.

** Everyone expects Bob to be evil because of his family history [[ThenLetMeBeEvil so he gives up trying to be good]].
** Given that Bob's father/grandfather was abusive to his daughter, he wouldn't be any different to Bob.
** One or both of Bob's parents [[ParentalIncest sexually]] [[FreudianExcuse abused]] him.
* '''Inverted''': Bob's inbred origins make him ''more'' heroic than his peers, not less. The incestuous version of HeroicBastard.

** The heroes accept a quest to track down and slay Bob, and expect him to be an evil abomination, but when they meet him he's not only good-looking but also kind-hearted.
** Bob's actions are from mental illness giving him poor impulse control, he not only lacks the awareness to be truly evil but with therapy manages to eventually grow to be a decent and considerate person.

** It's all an act, and Bob stabs them in the back.
* '''Parodied''': Bob is an IneffectualSympatheticVillain suffering from genetic defects from his inbreeding.

** At the beginning of the story, [[TheHero Aaron the Fearless]] only knows of Sergeant Bob's grim reputation, which includes the fact that he was conceived by incestuous rape and that he's extremely evil. When the narrator introduces us to Bob he's indeed introduced summarily executing kneeling men [[AintTooProudToBeg as they beg for their lives]]. Right after that scene it's revealed that the men Bob just killed were HumanTraffickers who sold their victims into [[SexSlave sexual slavery]] after [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil first "breaking in" the poor victims]], and Bob is just [[PayEvilUntoEvil giving these scumbags their due]], after which he [[PetTheDog frees the latest victims and assures their victims that they're free now]], and once he's finished with his shift he returns home to [[HappilyMarried warmly greet his loving wife Dacey]]. It seems like he's a good man, but it then it's revealed he's TheDragon to the EvilSorcerer [[BigBad Lord Vale Ian]] and is critical to the latter's plan to TakeOverTheWorld. The heroes try to kill Bob in his home as part of their plan to take down Ian, [[KickTheDog mocking him for the circumstances of his birth during their attack]], and in self-defense he kills Aaron's [[LoveInterests girlfriend]], [[ActionGirl Ele]][[TheLadette na]]. From here it seems like he's a FauxAffablyEvil villain, but then it's revealed he had no idea his master was evil because [[ThePawn Ian was deceiving him this whole time]]. As soon as he finds out he helps Aarom to finally defeat his former master Ian, and the Aaron reluctantly forgives Bob because his party forced Bob into that situation.

** Bob vows from a young age to be a good person [[BeingGoodSucks no matter how bad people are to him]].
** Bob's mother gets an abortion when she's pregnant with him or commits infanticide after he's born, because she expects him to be evil.
** After she gets away from her [[ParentalIncest sexually abusive father]], Alice resolves to raise [[ChildByRape Bob]] with love and kindness so he grows up to be a hero.

* '''Implied''': Bob is a CorruptCorporateExecutive, and he tells a new employee his parents met at the Bober Family Reunion. When the new employee, in an attempt to give him the benefit of the doubt, asks if Bob's mother was someone's plus-one or a caterer at the event, all Bob says is [[NonAnswer "What an interesting question?" without elaborating further.]]
* '''Deconstructed''': Bob is born from [[ParentalIncest parental]] [[ChildByRape rape]], and is hated by everyone in town. Even his mother Alice hates him, [[AbusiveParents beating and belittling him]] on the basis of ThatThingIsNotMyChild. Bob is so miserable, and internalized the idea of being evil, that when he is sixteen he [[DrivenToSuicide takes his own life]]. The whole town [[SuicideIsShameful takes it as proof that he was]] EvilAllAlong.
* '''Reconstructed''': Unbeknownst to Bob's hometown, [[BungledSuicide he survived]] and was recessitated by a drifter of the same age named Dacey. After hearing his story she invites him to follow her on the road, within a year they become lovers, and she [[LoveRedeems convinces him he can be good regardless of his lineage]]. Four years later they've settled back down in a new town where nobody knows them, have married, and [[BabiesEverAfter had a child together]].

** Lineage has no bearing on the morality of characters in the story.

** Bob's parents were stepsiblings or adoptive siblings.

** Bob was raised by his incestuous parents and as such grew up to hold their warped beliefs.

** Bob's family had a high predisposition to mental illness such as sociopathy, and incest only made it worse.

* '''Inverted''': Bob's inbred origins make him ''more'' heroic than his peers, not less.

* '''Enforced''': The author is a firm believer in the InTheBlood and MentalHandicapMoralDeficiency tropes.
