A heroic character who somehow ends up in charge of an army of traditionally evil people/monsters, and uses them for good. The reason why this army follows someone of differing morality can vary - maybe they're mindless monsters who can be commanded by a magical artifact, or maybe they believe in Asskicking Equals Authority and the hero beat up their former boss - whatever.
Examples:
- Aragorn leading the Army of the Dead in Lord of the Rings
- Daenerys leading an army of Dothraki in Game of Thrones
- Aquaman commanding the monsters of the Trench in the movie of the same name
