During the investigation of recent hollers in the Complete Monster thread, it's become apparent to the staff that an insular, unfriendly culture has evolved in the Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard threads that is causing problems.
Specific issues include:
- Overzealous hollers on tropers who come into the threads without being familiar with all the rules and traditions of the tropes. And when they are familiar with said rules and traditions, they get accused (with little evidence) of being ban evaders.
- A few tropers in the thread habitually engage in snotty, impolite mini-modding. There are also regular complaints about excessive, offtopic "socializing" posts.
- Many many thread regulars barely post/edit anywhere else, making the threads look like they are divorced from the rest of TV Tropes.
- Following that, there are often complaints about the threads and their regulars violating wiki rules, such as on indexing, crosswicking, example context and example categorization. Some folks are working on resolving the issues, but...
- Often moderator action against thread regulars leads to a lot of participants suddenly showing up in the moderation threads to protest and speak on their behalf, like a clique.
It is not a super high level problem, but it has been going on for years and we cannot ignore it any longer. There will be a thread in Wiki Talk
to discuss the problem; in the meantime there is a moratorium on further Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard example discussion until we have gotten this sorted out.
Update: The new threads have been made and can be found here:
Please see the Frequently Asked Questions and Common Requests List before suggesting any new entries for this trope.
IMPORTANT: To avoid a holler to the mods, please see here for the earliest date a work can be discussed, (usually two weeks from the US release), as well as who's reserved discussion.
When voting, you must specify the candidate(s). No blanket votes (i.e. "
to everyone I missed").
No plagiarism: It's fair to source things, but an effortpost must be your own work and not lifted wholesale from another source.
We don't care what other sites think about a character being a Complete Monster. We judge this trope by our own criteria. Repeatedly attempting to bring up other sites will earn a suspension.
What is the Work
Here you briefly describe the work in question and explain any important setting details. Don't assume that everyone is familiar with the work in question.
Who is the Candidate and What have they Done?
This will be the main portion of the Effort Post. Here you list all of the crimes committed by the candidate. For candidates with longer rap sheets, keep the list to their most important and heinous crimes, we don't need to hear about every time they decide to do something minor or petty.
Do they have any Mitigating Factors or Freudian Excuse?
Here you discuss any potential redeeming or sympathetic features the character has, the character's Freudian Excuse if they have one, as well as any other potential mitigating factors like Offscreen Villainy or questions of moral agency. Try to present these as objectively as possible by presenting any evidence that may support or refute the mitigating factors.
Do they meet the Heinousness Standard?
Here you compare the actions of the Candidate to other character actions in the story in order to determine if they stand out or not. Remember that all characters, not just other villains, contribute to the Heinousness Standard
Final Verdict?
Simply state whether or not you think the character counts or not.

Okay rephrasing
Daryl doesn't count since his backstory is awful. His father experimented on him and then locked him in an asylum rather then helping him when it clearly affected leading to him losing it in the first place. A solid FE.
"That's right mortal. By channeling my divine rage into power, I have forged a new instrument in which to destroy you."Guys Morgan was giving a short hand note. He participates in this thread and the Magnificent Bastard one, I think he’s aware there is a small room for crossovers.
Tropesfan again can you start looking into this stuff instead of just asking every question which comes to your head?
Um... can you start making mental notes of this stuff? We just asked you to not post. Every. Single. Thought. And one to say "Okay, I'll do that" isn't exactly filling me with confidence that the message went through. Please aim to keep the stuff you elect to put up here both relevant and actually intended to further either discussion or understanding of the trope. I know the thread sometimes has casual times when we're not talking about anything but this has been a constant from you I need to see corrected.

We've also got Tolkien's Legendarium.
Also, for How to Train Your Dragon, it seems Drago ALSO appears in the game, AND the show, so I'm waiting for Scraggle to decide if maybe they SHOULD just go to Other Media.
- Final Fantasy XIV has these two who show the worst of the Garlean Empire:
- Asahi sas Brutus is an ambassador from the Garlean Empire who reveals himself to be a sociopathic follower of Zenos yae Galvus. He tries to sabotage the peace between Doma's leaders by trying to provoke the Warrior of Light, and it was revealed that he hired the mercenaries to fake his good nature. However, his worst act is when his parents adopted his cousin, Yotsuyu. When Yotsuyu got mistreated by Asahi's parents, Asahi then came out with the idea to sell Yotsuyu to an abusive drunkard for money and political connections, as well as selling her to a brothel. After Yotsuyu regained her memories, Asahi sent her parents on her, which resulted them being killed. When the prisoner exchange happens, Asahi then tries to invoke the primal Tsukuyomi into Yotsuyu and callously shoots her multiple times when she tries to die peacefully, mocking the player, while brutally beating Yotsuyu, that attacking him would result in a war.
- Shadowbringers: Valens van Varro is a commander of the Garlean Empire who wants to use the Oversoul and is motivated by petty jealousy. An abusive boss, Valens would leave them to die without a care if he sees no value in them anymore. Valens forces his young wards to torture a man with a burning rod pressed against his back, in order to warp them into being abusive and cruel like him. Later on, it's revealed that Valens disciplines all of the siblings by using abusive, torturous methods, and this is shown by one of the siblings having permanent scars on her back. He forces a man to go to the Oversoul chamber capsule against his will and lies about how he and his family would be let go with his cooperation. The man's body and mind are gruesomely contorted until it overrides them down to their consciousness entirely.
- Dream SMP: JSchlatt's character is an opportunistic tyrant who ruled as the second president of L'Manberg. Upon pooling his votes with Quackity to rig the L'Manberg election in his favor, his first action was to exile his political opponents, Wilbur Soot and Tommyinnit. Afterwards, he aggressively expanded the country, uncaring for the citizens under him or the board he commands. After finding out that his secretary of state, a sixteen-year-old named Tubbo, was working in a plot against him, he had him set up a festival where his public execution by the hands of an unwilling and pressured Technoblade became the main attraction, killing a child to scare his citizens straight before becoming more aggressive to his peers in the following weeks, alienating everyone around him. Even after being overthrown and encountered as a pathetic, drunken mess, he went out of the world treating everyone around him with spite using his words and the swings of a broken bottle. Cruel and uncaring, Schlatt's actions make him a man who was hated by all and whose death was celebrated by the SMP.
- Steel Ball Run: The Alternate Universe counterpart of Diego "Dio" Brando is completely devoid of his main counterpart's nobler qualities. Brought into the universe by the dying Funny Valentine, Alternate Diego agrees to secure the corpse parts solely so that all good fortune in the world would be centered on him, dooming most of the world to calamity. During his battle with Johnny, Alternate Diego tricks him into killing several of Diego's fans by using them as shields, mockingly blaming Johnny for their deaths. Upon being confronted by the young Lucy Steel, Alternate Diego attacks her, proudly claiming that he'll take his time raping and torturing Lucy before killing her.
- Dr. Nathan Flack/Dr. Nemo is the first Bang Baby and, alongside Dharma, mastermind behind the Big Bang event. A Mad Scientist with no qualms testing his mutative Q Juice on innocents, Flack is anchored out of reality when exposed to his creation. Fascinated, Flack poisons tear gas grenades used to break up a major turf war, resulting in the death of 90% exposed and transforming the rest into Bang Babies. Deciding to advance on this development, Flack hijacks Headmaster's plans for world domination and tries to replicate the Dakota City incident on a global scale. Flack directly engineers the death of hundreds, is indirectly responsible for hundreds more in creating the Bang Babies, and is willing to kill billions of people and mutate the rest to satisfy his God complex.
- Wise Son: The White Wolf: The vicious leader of the Children of the Ivory Fist is a racist psychopath seeking to instigate a race war and purge all non-whites from the streets. Through the Children, the leader incites a wave of racist violence, has several black ministers killed, and pointlessly murders a colored vagrant captured by his minions. Humiliated by Wise Son and forced to admit he doesn't care a whit even about his so-called Children, the Ivory Fist leader spitefully blows up the store Wise Son defends, killing its elderly couple, and tries to have Wise Son and his pregnant ex-girlfriend gunned down in the latter's own apartment.
- Leland Crowne is a cult leader intent on destroying the masks worn in everyday life and force out the private sides of every living human being. In practice, this amounts to deranged cult killings and kidnappings; a slew of people are kidnapped and made into the embodiments of negative emotions, resulting in them, including a pregnant woman's children, turned into abstract abominations. Crowne turns Xombi himself into one of these, has him butcher his own friends, and tries to use an angel named Israfel—which, used incorrectly, would kill millions—and is so fanatically devoted to his idea of "truth" he ignores Israfel incinerating all of his own followers.
- 2011 revival note : Roland Finch is a consummate user-and-abuser who, tired of the various enemies he's made in a life of screwing people over, decided to conquer a floating kingdom known as a Stronghold to sate his boredom. Finch seduced a woman named Annie Palmer to gain access to the Stronghold, then killed the twin rulers of the city and drove the population into slaughtering each other before casting Annie aside to live alone. Years later, Finch continues to play on Annie's desire to go home, instigating a slaughter at a fantastic prison through her and intending ultimately to dispose of her. Finch intends ultimately to wipe out the twenty other floating Strongholds, all too happy to murder countless thousands to enjoy his kingdom alone.
- Grant Morrison's Action Comics: Vyndktvx is a 5th dimensional Imp whose jealousy and envy spurred him into trying to murder rival magician Mxyzptlk and the hundreds of worlds he contained inside a Pocket Dimension kept in his hat. Upon accidentally striking the King-Thing of Zrfff dead instead, Vyndktvx quickly schemes to take over Zrfff for himself, plunges Mxyzptlk into a coma, and goes about systematically destroying all of the planets inside his pocket dimension to spite his enemy, before specifically targeting Superman for burning Vyndktvx's arm during one of his attacks on Earth. Murdering Superman's parents, endangering Metropolis several times over, and horrifically killing an entire science expedition to Mars while Superman watches, Vyndktvx does all this and much more just to torment Superman, even arranging for Lex Luthor to come into prominence as Superman's Arch-Enemy. After turning a parallel Earth into a dystopia and creating a Superman-killing machine that he unleashes across the multiverse, Vyndktvx stages a massive strike against Superman in which he tortures the hero, brags about his intent to leave Earth a desolated land of suffering, and, when beaten, tries to blow up Metropolis as a final, petty blow.

Celebro moves on to possess an unfortunate worker named Shinya Kaburagi and use his body.

In the final arc of the series, Celebro moves on to possess Director Kuriyama, leaving Kaburagi to be arrested in his place, to approve the use of the D4 weapon in the robot Ultroid Zero, which he uses to kill and absorb dormant Kaiju around the world, including a Red King mother and nearly her unhatched egg, and following by destroying various cities around the world and setting SAAG against the STORAGE with orders to kill.

Fuji and put the 8 million people in the surrounding area in danger, purely to harm the humans the Kaisers cared so much about. On several occasions, Dino Geist takes hostages, both human or Kaiser, to gain an advantage, then tries to kill them without a second thought once he got his way, in some cases even indulging in torture while waiting. Even his own allies aren't safe from his ruthlessness, as both Trader and his own crew are ultimately abandoned to the Kaisers without a second thought when it suits the pirate's goals.

I just got two 99% Monster villains in a row. Its really annoying.
Edited by KazuyaProta on Jan 10th 2021 at 1:12:15 PM
Watch me destroying my countryBtw Full Metal Panic. Mr Gates has a weird part in his entry "and is seen masturbating to images of kittens and squirrels."
What....dos that have to do with him being a cm. That seems like a really gross unnecessary detail. Can we cut it.
"That's right mortal. By channeling my divine rage into power, I have forged a new instrument in which to destroy you."Yeah...
- Mr. Gates, aka Mister Kalium, Gauron's successor and head of Amalgam's Execution Squad, is even crazier than his predecessor. In his first appearance, he shoves a man out of a helicopter for questioning his predictions about how a battle may have progressed, has all his former allies slaughtered, then has a Freak Out and kills the men who did it. He later tries to ambush the heroes and kill them, using an attack in a public place as a way to draw them out. He's a truly warped sexual predator as well; among other acts, he's heavily implied to be taking advantage of teenage girls Yu Fan and Yu Lan. A spectacularly Bad Boss, he drowns one of his men in a pool for bringing him bad news. In the Season 2 finale, after Leonard Tesstarossa has killed one of the twins, Gates uses her corpse as part of a puppet show to taunt the surviving twin, whom he then murders, before making his final assault on Mithril.

Taking a guess, its to show how much of a degenerate he is.
Uh, I am oddly thinking in the "Season 2" mention. FMP is actually a Light Novel series.
Edited by KazuyaProta on Jan 10th 2021 at 1:36:37 PM
Watch me destroying my countryThanks ACW, having seen the work, that scene is blatantly Played for Laughs anyways... so depravity or no, it doesn't belong in an entry here.
Also I think the mention is fine, his character is greatly expanded on in the anime as I recall.
Edited by 43110 on Jan 10th 2021 at 1:38:55 PM
If that's the case we should add Adaptational Villainy or something like that.
Gimme a sec with Gauron.
And done: Gauron, aka Mister Iron, is a brutal mercenary employed by Amalgam and the archenemy of protagonist Sosuke Sagara. Having killed all of Sosuke's comrades in a war-torn country, Gauron also repeatedly attempts to force himself on the minor. In present, Gauron shows his brutality on missions he is assigned to, killing subordinates for questioning him, hijacking an airliner while threatening the high school passengers and kidnaps one to subject her to painful experimentation. Returning later working as a nuclear Arms Dealer, Gauron happily slaughters Sosuke's squad trying to stop him and goes on to hijack a submarine, intending to fire its powerful missiles lest his enemies give in to his demands. Corrupting two twin girls into following his twisted will, Gauron uses them to target Sosuke and his Love Interest and even when lying completely immobilized, tries to draw Sosuke into one final trap to kill them together.

Complete Monsters also can be Magnificent Bastards, like Zantafio, Protomen!Wily and Miles Jackson.
