* BaseBreaker: Piggot's treatment of Sophia is one. Considering how she treated Taylor, some feel that she's getting everything she's had coming to her. However, [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/19312567/ others]] point out that not only is she being unprofessional, but she's setting Sophia up to fail from the start rather than trying to redeem her and being just as much of a bully in abusing her authority as well. The fact that the other wards stand by and watch her abuse her authority doesn't help either, because if any other one was in their position they wouldn't.

* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Greed; she was a LonelyRichKid who gained superpowers to avoid an incoming train right after seeing her father figure (her real parents often forgot she even existed) die in front of her. THEN she killed the 15th Greed.....and inherited the collective voices of him and his predecessors......then she's forced to kill because she can't resist the voices. By the time she comes to Brockton Bay she's a shadow of herself.

** Pride also qualifies. Unlike Jack he has a far more sympathetic motivation. Many years ago his family died when Abaddon crashed into his world, which destroyed his civilization. Abaddon reached out and promised to restore everything to the way it was before he came if Pride helped him retrieve Eden's corpse. It's ultimately implied that for all his godlike power Pride's ultimately a lonely man desperately trying to regain the family he once had.

** Sophia approaches it from the other end-as a child, the stepfather she looked up to and trusted attempted a murder-suicide on her, with her only being saved by her trigger. This led directly to her predator and prey mentality, and to her becoming a misanthropic, bitter shell of a girl who drives away everyone close to her, and is only now starting to realize she's partially to blame. [[spoiler:And then she gets framed for murder.]]

** Taylor, even more than canon. She was bullied by her former best friend, triggered with power that left her unable to speak or move for months, and her father had to sell her house to pay for her treatment. She has so many anger and trust issues that she finds it hard to suppress them, and there was no justice for her before Faultline took her in.
