Broken Ace	comment	He's tall, charming, strikingly good-looking, well-spoken in five languages, and classically trained in even more instruments. He's the Big Man on Campus, former president of the Absurdly Powerful Student Council, valedictorian, and working on his doctorate in a scientific field that a peon like you can't even pronounce. He always wears a suit...until the inevitable Shirtless Scene during his (strenuous) exercise routine, that is. He has a lovely smile. But inside, he's an ugly, writhing mass of self-hatred, Parental Issues, past tragedy and whatever unpleasentries that life brought upon him. Expect him to have at least one bizarre trait or ability that should not be overlooked, as well as an unhealthy attitude about love, life, and humanity in general. He most likely doesn't have anyone that loves or respects him for what he really is. This may be justified. In the most cynical works on the sliding scale, he'll be a Serial Killer, or at least a future one. In works on the more idealistic end, he'll be struggling with a mental illness, a disorder, or some other demon that makes his life miserable but isn't his fault. This character is usually male (female characters tend to be Broken Birds instead), but not always. Also, he may just be a perfectionist crumbling under his own standards. The chief difference between the Broken Ace and the usually female Stepford Smiler is that the Stepford Smiler wants to appear normal at all costs, often to the point of hurting herself emotionally (or because she's sociopathic). This guy has the same setup but is more talented and wants to be the best, loved by all, and accepted. The debilitating personal issues which he's hiding are only getting worse because of being repressed and the stress of his efforts to excel, and these sorts of characters are prime Jerkass Woobie material. See also The Ace, who's still better than you at everything but isn't so prone to mental disorders or emotional problems, and the Byronic Hero, who's just as awe-inspiring and brooding but lacks the charming, polished faÃ§ade and is rarely presented as pathetic. For plots where a character's idol is revealed to be this, see Broken Pedestal. Anyone who has experienced The Perils of Being the Best is likely to become this. Related to "Well Done, Son" Guy if the child has accomplished much and gained much respect from other people. In case you haven't noticed, this has nothing to do with asexuality. Compare Heartbroken Badass. In Real Life, this is common. Real people have flaws no matter how perfect and successful they seem to be at first glance. Moreover, high-performing people are often pushing themselves so hard to achieve professional goals that they are bound to either burn out physically or emotionally, or underinvest in (or even abandon) their friends and family.

Broken Ace / int_10523648	comment	Molly's Game: Harlan Eustice, unlike every other person who plays poker at the games Molly sets up, is a good and careful poker player, playing the cards rather than trying to bluff and challenge the other players. On the eve of a surprise birthday party he's planning for his wife, Harlan is playing with Bad Brad (nicknamed as such because he's an awful poker player), among others. Because Harlan isn't used to playing with Brad, when Brad goes all in on a bet, Harlan assumes he has a good hand, and being a Graceful Loser, bows out. It isn't until he gets a look at Brad's cards that Harlan realizes Brad was bluffing. As Molly tells us, from this point, it's as if a circuit shorted inside Harlan's brain, and for the rest of the night, he forgot every rule when it came to playing good poker, instead making bets indiscriminately and losing all of his money (even the money Molly ends up lending him). He never makes it to his wife's birthday party, and she ends up divorcing him, leading him to be totally dependent on Player X.

Broken Ace / int_109f7814	comment	Sherlock is, as always the world's greatest detective, he's both one of the smartest people you'll ever meet and a very capable fighter and regularly enjoys making the police look like idiots. But at the same time he's a self-destructive drug addict who can't measure up to his Aloof Big Brother, seems to have something of an Inferiority Superiority Complex and has a very co-dependent on his best/only friend John Watson (who is himself a bit of a broken ace) and that's not even mentioning his sister.

Broken Ace / int_114401d2	comment	Spencer Hastings from Pretty Little Liars. A perfectionist, beautiful Academic Athlete. She also comes from a wildly dysfunctional family (made entirely of other Broken Aces), suffers from a semi-dormant mental disorder as well as substance abuse, is in a very toxic Alpha Bitch vs. Starscream "friendship" with another Broken Ace, Allison, from whom she borrowed some disturbing Fille Fatale tendencies. As Hanna puts it, no one should have been surprised when Spencer was admitted to Bedlam House. All of the aforementioned Hastings family fit this category, as they unquestionably fit The Ace part in achievements, status and even looks, they also each carry a can of worms — Melissa with her secret pregnancy, Veronica with her secret illness, and Peter with his secret affair with the Dilaurentis twins, Jessica and Mary, with whom he had given birth to no less than three children out of wedlock — Jason, Alex, and Spencer herself. Even the two men who planned to marry into the Hastings family, the equally creepy Ian and Wren, could fit the trope, though Wren gets the prize for Foreshadowing his psycho Hidden Depths as early as Season 2, while the depths of his sketchiness are only revealed five seasons later. The Only family that can hold a candle to the Hastings are the Dilaurentis family, so chock-full of secrets and craziness each of them get Walking Spoiler status, even though they are — or used to be, the most beloved, respectable families in Rosewood. That applies even for the ones who didn't know they were part of the Dilaurentis family, like Spencer herself.

Broken Ace / int_11859033	comment	Artie of Narbonic has undertones of this. He is 6+ ft tall with a perfect body, has an IQ that is literally beyond human possibility, has won several genius grants, is quite successful as a novelist, and as of Skin Horse, is seen to have an endless stream of one night stands with other gorgeous men. Hell, as of Skin Horse he is described exactly by the trope description if you add Civil Rights Leader to the list. But on the inside, he is nearly continually disappointed with himself and struggles to deal with his dual nature as a human and a gerbil and his place in the transgenic community. He isn't quite completely broken, but he is as close as you can get without becoming so.

Broken Ace / int_164eec8f	comment	Juan Cabrillo from The Oregon Files is a talented ex-CIA agent, A Father to His Men who are themselves a Badass Crew of former military and government men and women, and captain of the MV Oregon, a high-tech spy ship disguised as a rusting tramp steamer. However, he is deeply troubled by his wife's death, which, while caused by her own alcoholism and driving under the influence, he believes himself responsible for due to being away on "business" with the CIA for extended periods of time, thus causing her to take up the bottle out of loneliness. On top of (and possibly due to) this is his severe case of Chronic Hero Syndrome to the point that he must help someone need, even if doing so would result in worse consequences down the road. He also grapples with ethical issues stemming from his heroic tendencies clashing with the morally ambiguous nature of being a mercenary, at one point musing that if he killed someone in cold blood, even if the person deserved it, it could take away a part of his soul and take him down a path that would make him no better.

Broken Ace / int_1a12bbee	comment	The Mighty Thor: Thor certainly becomes this post-Original Sin. He loses his worthiness to wield MjÃ¶lnir and becomes way more cynical and melancholic. He admits that he's come to believe that Gorr was right about the gods, and that they don't deserve the praise and worship mortals heap on them. Far into the future, he has this even worse. He becomes the All-Father and lord of Asgard and inherits the Odin-Force (which he renames the "Thor-Force"), but his brother permanently turning to evil, the death of all life on Earth at Loki's hands, and Gorr's slaughter and enslavement of his people has reduced him to a near shell of himself who can barely muster the will to fight anymore. Thankfully, both the past and future versions of Thor eventually get better, though they still carry much baggage regarding their past failings and self-worth.

Broken Ace / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: Cyclops. He's the leader of the X-Men and the leader of the mutant race, but oh boy, has Scott ever endured so much pain, chaos, and tragedy throughout the course of his life. Underneath that stoic facade is most definitely an emotionally broken and fragile man. Even before Cerebus Syndrome hit, Cyclops was this. A strong, versatile power came with a crippling inability to control it, and fear that someday he would hurt those he loved with it. Then there's the fact that he literally cannot make eye contact with anyone, a privilege everyone else takes for granted. Good strategizing skills coupled with terrible social skills isolated him from his teammates and made him a repressed, disliked, Sugar-and-Ice Personality who had barely any close relationships. Scott's fellow X-Man Wolverine is also one of these. He's got over a century's worth of accumulated skills, accomplishments, bedmates, friends, and is the poster-boy of "mutant cool". He's also got over a century's worth of painful memories, dirty business, lost loves, enemies, and is full of self-loathing. And Logan's own daughter/Opposite-Sex Clone, Laura Kinney a.k.a. X-23, who may pack even more angst into her seventeen short years than Logan has his entire 150 or more. She's without question one of the best fighters and most experienced members of whatever team she's assigned to thanks to being raised as a Living Weapon by the ones who created her. She was also horrifically physically and emotionally abused by her creators, forced to kill her own mother via a chemically-induced berserker rage which will make her turn on anyone no matter how much she cares for them, had to give up the relatively normal and happy life she was creating with her only other family when the ones who made her came looking for her in order to protect them, and spent an unknown period of time as a prostitute under a violently possessive and abusive pimp. Laura has been left a mess of confused emotions and finds establishing true friendships incredibly difficult as a result, and it's been very strongly implied she's prone to bouts of severe, if not outright suicidal, depression. And her solo series reveals she was left with so little sense of self during her captivity and days as a prostitute she never realized the horrible things done to her were even wrong!

In his cursed identity as Dr. Wael, he's a stereotypical arrogant hypercompetent surgeon, but when the curse is lifted he goes through a mini Trauma Conga Line and loses all confidence in himself and medicine in general, descending into alcoholism and depression. Which is a problem when an out-of-towner crashes his car and Wael is the only one who can save his life. Ruby helps him get over it and he resumes work as the town doctor, with some much needed perspective and humility.

Broken Ace / int_2675c915	comment	Grant Ward from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. starts off as the perfect spy, The Big Guy for Coulson's team of specialists. He wasn't the most sociable, but even that gave him a James Bond-like quality, forgoing a social life for king and country. Still, he becomes friends with the rest of Team Coulson and has a budding romance with Skye. Then it later turns out that he's The Mole working for HYDRA, and he betrays SHIELD and his friends. Then we learn the circumstances of his recruitment and just how screwed up his life was up to that point. At the end of the season, Ward's mentor is killed and he's arrested for his crimes and attempts suicide in jail. In the second season, Coulson and his crew make it very clear that they do not trust or forgive him for his actions. When circumstances require them to work together again, pretty much everyone wants to kill him. Even when he gives some Freudian Excuse, he's shut down by Agent May, whose PTSD is often a plot point ("We all have our traumas, Ward, didn't turn any of us into psychopaths.") He escapes at the end of that mission and became a recurring villain until his death in the third season.

Broken Ace / int_2a8d8e6f	comment	James Gordon of Gotham. Gordon might be a rookie detective, but he's a former soldier and a very good hand-to-hand combatant, effortlessly disarming and taking down a large heavily-armed man and then later delivering a beatdown to two mob enforcers among other badass moments. He's also good looking with a laundry list of admirers who will always strive to do what is right and clean up Gotham. However, most of his admirers are Ax-Crazy and he's constantly fighting with his own dark side which others take note of. Also, there are frequent hits on his life (by two of his admirers even) and the lives of those close to him. In addition, Galavan worming in his way out of justice, combined with Gordon netting a 40-year sentence for his vigilante execution, seems to have stripped Gordon of any notion that the law can work in Gotham which is what he firmly believed separated the villains from the heroes.

Able to bed any woman pretty much just by looking at her. Has won multiple advertising awards and manages to accept them while cutting a dapper figure. He achieved this by stealing another man's identity to get away from his dirt poor abusive upbringing. His marriage to Betty showed the consequences of a Broken Ace marrying a Stepford Smiler.

In one life Oliver is the heir to an immense fortune, a oligarch playboy with more women than he can handle and a life most people only dream of. In his other life, he moonlights as a Badass Normal Superhero saving more lives before nine A.M. than most people do before lunch. And yet neither of these is the real Oliver Queen. Inside he's hollow, convinced that his life is a sham, and manifests numerous self-destructive tendencies including alcoholism, the inability to commit to anything, and a total disregard for his own safety that's both impressive and frightening. His commitment to saving the world overshadows everything else he does, leading to bouts of drinking, a temporary drug addiction, and culminating in his Interrupted Suicide in Season 9.

She is beautiful, talented, has been blessed with incredible opportunities and a supportive family. Everyone worships her, and that's the problem. Having been placed on such a high pedestal, it's impossible for her to make any friends at all. She's a very lonely person who just wants to be treated like a normal person. Upon meeting Jaune Arc, the fact he doesn't know who she is and therefore treats her like anyone else attracts her to him, and enables her to finally start making friends. Qrow Branwen was a member of the elite Team STRQ as a student. Despite being famous and respected as one of Remnant's top Huntsmen, he's a sarcastic, pessimistic loner. An alcoholic struggling with an uncontrollable Semblance that brings misfortune to himself and those around him, he tries to avoid hanging around those he cares about to spare them the harm he can accidentally bring their way. Upon realising in Volume 6 that everything he's been fighting for might have been a lie, he descends into an alcoholic spiral that makes him a problem to the students he's supposed to be supporting. By Volume 7, he gives up alcohol and starts turning his life around, despite the uphill struggle.

Broken Ace / int_36f2432	comment	Played with in unOrdinary. Before Seraphina met John, she was indisputably the top student in school in abilities, academics, and reputation. However, this came with a greater deal of pressure and judgment from her peers. In the present story, Seraphina's peers in Wellston see her like this since she started hanging around with John and no longer caring too much about her grades or reputation. However, Seraphina feels a lot better about herself than she did before. As it turns out, John himself is also one of these. While a skilled hand to hand fighter and owner of one of the most powerful abilities seen so far in the series, he also has serious trust issues and a vicious Hair-Trigger Temper that is in no way whatsoever Played for Laughs. There are several signs that he's suffering from PTSD. He's an interesting case in that he's perfectly aware of it, hence why he refuses to make his The Ace status public because he knows he's the worst possible person to be saddled with the social status and authority that comes with being King — worse, he knows it from experience. It's implied in one conversation that this is enforced among god-tiers. As described, Seraphina used to be obsessed with perfection, while Arlo's obsessive drive to maintain social hierarchy essentially kickstarts the plot. In both stances it is much for the worse of the both of them. Some characters briefly wonder if crippling god-tiers psychologically is not a way to keep them under control.

His nemesis Inspector Javert is also an example of this. Javert is the most feared policeman in France. He is described as a "monstrous Saint Michael". But his zealotry is motivated by the fact he is the bastard son of a convict and a fortune teller, which he is deeply ashamed of. He seems to have some sort of mental illness and suffers from Black-and-White Insanity so bad that when his worldview is destroyed he kills himself rather than compromise any further.

He's the leader of the X-Men and the leader of the mutant race, but oh boy, has Scott ever endured so much pain, chaos, and tragedy throughout the course of his life. Underneath that stoic facade is most definitely an emotionally broken and fragile man. Even before Cerebus Syndrome hit, Cyclops was this. A strong, versatile power came with a crippling inability to control it, and fear that someday he would hurt those he loved with it. Then there's the fact that he literally cannot make eye contact with anyone, a privilege everyone else takes for granted. Good strategizing skills coupled with terrible social skills isolated him from his teammates and made him a repressed, disliked, Sugar-and-Ice Personality who had barely any close relationships.

However, Harry develops major insecurities as a result of his abusive childhood and the pressures the wizarding world dumps on him. Albus Dumbledore is talented, powerful, and famous bordering on revered for defeating Grindelwald and leading the fight against Voldemort, both of whom are said to have only feared him out of all wizards. As the books go on, it becomes clear that he's also a deeply lonely man whose intelligence does not prevent him from making emotional mistakes. The "broken" part really kicks when his Dark and Troubled Past is revealed in book seven. Tom Riddle was an example during his schooldays — a prodigy, incredibly popular, disguising his true nature. In this case, he's an out-and-out murderous lunatic instead of just "messed up" or "morally ambiguous", driven by his fear of death. Severus Snape. Brilliant student who improved his potion textbook. But he was also a non-socialized Creepy Child, allegedly created many curses alongside his potions,note In actuality, it was several helpful spells and only a single Curse, destroyed his one chance of a happy life upon using a massive slur against his Only Friend, and is so bitter over his bullying at the hands of the hero's father and the abuse he suffered at the hands of his parents and everyone around him... that he takes up to use his position as a Hogwarts teacher to torment not only The Hero, but his friends, and especially an innocent boy named Neville Longbottom.

Broken Ace / int_3e5de40b	comment	Scrubs: An early episode had J.D. competing (purely in his own mind) with another intern named Nick to see who was the best between them and who should be the unofficial leader of their group of interns. Eventually, J.D. has to concede defeat, as Nick can match JD's medical knowledge while also being more handsome, less socially awkward, more charismatic, less of a suck-up and even has the girl J.D. likes interested in him. Hints are dropped throughout the episode, however, that Nick is a Stepford Smiler who is barely repressing all his insecurities and inner turmoil. At the end of the episode Nick realizes he's not going to be able to save the life a 7-year-old kid, (who likely couldn't have been saved because sometimes that's the reality of medicine and health care) and Nick completely breaks down as a result and quits working at Sacred Heart. A little later in the series, they brought in Doctor Kevin Casey. He was played by Michael J. Fox, and they gave the character severe OCD to help explain the tics caused by Fox's Parkinson's Disease. His OCD made him an incredible doctor and surgeon, as his compulsive need to study meant that he had read every book he could get his hands on multiple times and perfected his physical dexterity, performing complex operations in a fraction of the time a normal surgeon would require. He's also incredibly nice and wise, giving helpful advice to everyone in the hospital, helping them fix their lives. So, having humiliated Turk in the OR, Cox in front of his interns, and JD by destroying his ego with an off-hand comment, all three seek him out to confront him. And they find him trapped in the scrub room outside the OR, unable to leave because he's been compulsively washing his hands for hours. He's on the verge of tears but he just can't leave. Dr. Cox himself could be seen as this. He's intelligent, witty, well respected, perhaps the best Doctor at Sacred Heart and keeps in fantastic shape for a man his age. However, he's also bitterly lonely, broken shell of a man who hasn't had a meaningful relationship in years. He gets somewhat better as the show goes on, after his ex-wife returns, and he becomes a father.

However, desperate hunger for recognition, severe Daddy Issues, and seeking glory corrupt him. He's ignored and overshadowed by his 12 older brothers. In the book, which gives him a more expansive backstory, most of his brothers constantly bully him, ranging from verbal abuse to throwing items at him for simply daydreaming. His mother loves him but is too weak to spend time with him, and his father coldly regards him as a nuisance and sends him to do horrific tasks. Despite this, Hans often daydreams about having a loving and caring father, even as an adult. It's even heavily implied that he is a self-harmer. He ends up becoming more and more power-hungry until he becomes cruel and willing to kill to fulfill his ambition. By the time the book ends, Hans is starting to regret his actions, but has done enough damage to be sent back to the Southern Isles to be humiliated and punished by his family.]]

She was abandoned by her mother, loses her boyfriend to another girl after just two weeks of separation, becomes paralyzed in her left leg and resists others' attempts to help with her condition, acts distant towards the men she sleeps with so she won't become attached, and tends to put all other moral concerns on the backburner when her (former) boyfriend's safety is at stake.

She's portrayed a very attractive Teen Genius, but underneath is extremely lonely from constantly moving schools, insecure about everything outside of studying and hides her intelligence to avoid being labelled the 'freaky math girl'. She does become more comfortable with herself after the first film. Troy has it even worse. Big Man on Campus and super-talented basketball captain, but also increasingly uncomfortable with the expectations of his parents, friends and the rest of the school. In the third film, after a song which screams self-loathing (to the point of him ripping down posters of himself), he decides to go to a different college than expected, thousands of miles away from his hometown, partly to get away from the spotlight and pressure. In fact, a huge part of his and Gabriella's initial attraction is that they accept each other as themselves and not the hyped up perfect people everyone sees.

Broken Ace / int_43576f5	comment	Supernatural: Dean Winchester is handsome, charming ladies' man and badass hunter on the outside, self-loathing bundle of PTSD and daddy issues on the inside. His brother Sam is the brains of the operation (but no less badass) and tends to be much more empathetic towards people in need, but is a nest of hatred, anger, and self-loathing and is driven primarily by revenge for much of the show. Every hunter is this in spades, to the point of only being good at what they do by being so horribly broken. Capable of fighting monsters, demons, and undead nightmares, hiding from (or staying on the run from) the police and FBI for the crimes they commit doing their jobs, and all of them make the hardiest survivalist look like a pansy. The only reason any of them live the life they do is that either they were raised into it, which is a whole mess of issues right there, or they experienced firsthand losing someone close to them because of the things that go bump in the night and became obsessed with revenge. John Winchester was arguably the worst we've seen, often being remarked on as a hunter of unparalleled skill but uncaring of anything that wouldn't lead him to the Yellow-Eyed Demon, to the point of being abusive and neglectful towards his sons and raising them as soldiers to fight an unending daily war (which Sam and later Dean resent him for).

He's also an arrogant, snobby moral absolutist who is hated by everyone except for his immediate family and his partner Bayliss. Kay Howard is one of the best detectives in the department. However, having spent a lifetime of having to be One of the Guys to get respect from her male colleagues has left her out-of-touch with her own feminity and unable to relate to other women. Al Giardello and Stanley Bolander are the most wizened and experienced out of the cast and pretty much universally beloved by the squad.

Broken Ace / int_45dbe39b	comment	Kayfabe-wise, Randy Orton portrays this with some Reality Subtext. Orton was the talented athlete that most of WWE's higher-ups envisioned at the top of the company back around 2003-2005, but never surpassed John Cena's status mostly because of his inability to stay out of his own way. In kayfabe, especially, most of his heel turns are marked with bouts of insecurity and paranoia, and his recent bout as a face portrays him as a skilled athlete, but a stoic Sociopathic Hero. And, both in and out of kayfabe, Orton still occasionally dips into anger and behavioral issues.

Broken Ace / int_47b50df9	comment	Bret Hart for a long, long time following the Montreal Screwjob fit the bill. Widely considered by most as the most skilled technical wrestler to ever lace up a pair of boots, (his nickname as â€œThe best there is, there best there was, and the best there ever will be was well earned), one need only read his autobiography to see the man was at a point a walking, talking ball of pent up bitterness and resentment. Despite his decorated wrestling career, significant points of Bretâ€™s life are marred by family and marriage problems with ex-wife Julie and the other Harts, getting screwed out of multiple title runs by the likes of Hogan or Michaels and capping off the late 90s into the mid 2000â€™s with his concussion and forced retirement, the tragic death of his youngest brother Owen Hart, a stroke, and the deaths of several other close friends and family. Itâ€™s no wonder the Hitman was left embittered for so long.

Dashingly handsome, brave, cocky and nigh-immortal...but after being abandoned by the Doctor for being "wrong", suffering trauma after his repeated deaths, seeing everyone he loves die in battle or of old age, and now having being forced to allow his own grandson to be killed he's definitely a Broken Ace. He also has a Dark and Troubled Past. He still feels guilt over getting his brother captured by a vicious alien race. Even during his time as a temporal agent, it wasn't all gallivanting through history and screwing anyone and everything (although there was a fair bit of that too). He has a chunk of memory the size of 2 years missing, although he completely forgets about it after meeting the Doctor.

Broken Ace / int_50bcf7a6	comment	Homestuck's Dirk is a perfect example. At first glance, he appears to be completely flawless—he is a badass of the highest caliber, is an incredibly-skilled engineer capable of creating fully-sentient virtual clones of himself, and has his group's session of Sburb all planned out. The reality, though, is quite different: he suffers from severe psychological trauma from being born in a Bad Future, and is one of only two humans left alive on Earth. His Bro, his one guardian figure who he clearly adored, was murdered prior to his birth, leaving him forced not only to raise himself with nothing but a Demonic Dummy for company but to live up to the legacy of his heroic and Shrouded in Myth ancestor. Due to the pain, this famous ancestor inflicted upon the ruling empress, Dirk is top on her hit list. On top of all this, he has developed a crush on Jake, who was born 400 years in the past and who he may not even meet, let alone get to confess his feelings to. As The Stoic, he's unable to confide in anyone, leaving him the heroic equivalent of a ticking time bomb — though from what we've seen so far, he'll probably be okay. We get to see this ace break in-story — not especially dramatically (little in Homestuck is played for drama), but, for the work, pretty hard. At least, falling into a depressive, self-loathing fit so deep that not even a magically-induced sugar high can bring him out of it certainly looks like this. Just a bit before this, we see him lamenting how his emotionlessness and manipulative bastardry have alienated him from his friends and boyfriend, and displaying some ambiguously-suicidal impulses in nearly destroying his robotic personality copy. If this wasn't enough, afterward we find out that he has a fair-sized insecurity complex about his sexuality and the fact that he'll never be able to love his dearest friend in the way she wants (and deserves) because of it. Give this kid a hug already! Vriska could also count. From the outside, she's a wild, powerful, intensely-confident Pirate Girl who has her friends wrapped around her little finger. As time goes on, though, it becomes more and more clear that her desire to live up to what she believes her ancestor is has turned her insensitive to the point of a Jerkass, which has driven away all of her friends, including her crush and her moirail, something she claims to not care about but which she really does. Despite acting confident, she lapses into worrying Self-Deprecation at times. Also, as Terezi points out, she can only manipulate people through mind control, since she's too impatient and reckless to actually play people properly. Basically all of her plans fail, and the one thing that actually does go right for her — becoming God Tier — only happened when Aradia beat her up in revenge for killing her and left her to bleed to death slowly...and then it all ended up being pointless anyway, since the one time it would have actually helped, she is killed beforehand, since, even if she won, Karkat and Terezi would still have died. In the end, the one person who had ever believed in her, John, later admits that she was just some weird psychotic girl who kind of had a crush on him one day a long time ago. Ouch.

He wins every battle, however impossible. But all the pain and horror he has to go through wears him down more and more, as does the fact that he keeps getting rejected by everyone he seeks acceptance from — and the mental scars just make him even more incapable of really reaching out to someone, leading to more rejection. At one point, his love interest knows that when he starts thrashing in his sleep she has to clamp her hand over his mouth because the ruthless mercenaries he leads must not know that their supposedly fearless leader suffers from nightmares that cause him to wake up screaming in terror.

In Spectre, it's sad to see Bond's virtually character-less apartment, as it reveals how little of a life he has beyond MI6, and what a lonely and broken man he is. Moneypenny's sarcastic remark about Bond's life in Spectre when he hears her boyfriend over the phone almost sounds like a much harsher jab. Even the rejected song by Radiohead is depressing as hell. It pretty much is a summation of Bond's character and all of the tragedies he suffered over the years. Just read here.

Eventually, he becomes the next Ace Rimmer — as each one dies, he recruits the next, and so on, until it finally reaches Arnie himself. It is mostly his neuroses that hold him back — but, luckily for him, the Red Dwarf universe has it set that pretty much every Rimmer gets redeemed.

Rich and famous actress, with a handsome husband and a little daughter, beautiful and adored. But underneath that, she's a mess. And she loses both the husband and daughter pre-series. In reality, she's got issues galore, refuses to use her powers thanks to what it's done to her family, and more and more shows her cracks as an ex-child soldier from a dysfunctional family. Luther Hargreeves is a superhero, has superstrength, and is incredibly isolated thanks to his siblings leaving the Academy. He's never left home, he doesn't understand the world outside, and he clings to his father and the notion of saving the world. By Season 2, he's got a better understanding of how the world works, but he's still bad at interpersonal relationships and is spiraling hard over his father's abuse. Number Five seems cool, calm, and collected as he puts down anyone and everyone around him and works to prevent the apocalypse. But in reality, he's spiraling, PTSD-ridden, terrified of failure, desperate to protect his siblings, and talks to a mannequin (and thinks it talks back). Some of his scenes are heartbreaking, like the one in Season 2 where he tells his siblings, voice breaking, that he had to watch them die again. Diego Hargreeves is a skilled fighter, a witty person, and determined to save people and fight crime. He's desperately clinging to the idea of being a hero so that his childhood doesn't feel wasted.

His friends and allies all warn his new protÃ©gÃ© that he is horribly damaged by his family's murder and is renowned for his Unstoppable Rage when people he cares about are in danger. This doesn't worry Valkyrie at all until she learns that Skulduggery is so broken his darker thoughts and desire for revenge turned him into Lord Vile, the most infamous general of Mevolent's armies, who was hell-bent on the annihilation of all life. Made worse because the Faceless Ones spent a year torturing Skulduggery, making him a little bit more unhinged than normal (including threatening someone sent to keep an eye on him with a gun) and separating the Lord Vile part of Skulduggery's psyche into a separate Ax-Crazy entity.

Broken Ace / int_6f19dfbf	comment	Purple Hyacinth: Lauren is an investigator in the country's Secret Police, and is secretly a Super. But she's also guilt-ridden at making a series of mistakes as a child that led to her parents getting murdered andh her best friend getting caught in a terrorist explosion. This definitely applies to Kieran as well: During the explosion, the terrorists' secondary goal was to kidnap the child of a VIP. They couldn't identify the right boy and ended up kidnapping a bunch of surviving children - Kieran especially - and eventually decided to give the disposable children Tyke Bomb Training from Hell that got most of the kids killed, some in front of Kieran's face, until the survivors were hardened into ruthless killers. Despite his status as a legendary serial assassin and mastery over dozens of skills, Kieran depreciates himself as a psychotic monster who can't help but follow the wrong people.

Broken Ace / int_6f734712	comment	Several examples on Smallville: Lionel Luthor: Of the Villain with Good Publicity variety, Lionel is the Big Bad of Seasons 1-3. He's a Magnificent Bastard, Corrupt Corporate Executive, and Cultured Badass with more money than God, and the ears of kings, sultans, and presidents. He's respected by those who don't know how evil he is, feared by those who do and has the entire world at his beck and call. He's also a damaged, empty man who has immense difficulty identifying with other people and is trapped in a mutually self-destructive relationship with his son, a relationship he is unable to salvage even after a Heelâ€“Face Turn. He's burned every bridge he's got to get where he is and is revealed to be a Self-Made Orphan who's still running away from his abusive, drunken parents. Lex Luthor: Lionel's son. On the surface, he's got it all: wealth, power, women, immunity from prosecution. Underneath, he's self-loathing, caught up in a desire for parental approval that he'll never get, before or post-Faceâ€“Heel Turn, haunted by the deaths of his mother and brother, and consumed by his need to control the people around him. He blows up every friendship he ever has in his drive for success and his eventual slide into cackling supervillainy is as tragic as it is inevitable. Jason Teague: He's a good-looking football coach, secretly dating one of the hottest girls in the school. His family is rich, he's a former star player himself, and he's able to lie and cheat at Lex's level. Unfortunately, he's pretty eaten up by his mommy issues, has no self-esteem, and is nearly incapable of taking any action his mother (Season 4 Big Bad Genevieve Teague) doesn't approve of. Green Arrow/Oliver Queen: A heroic example. In one life Oliver is the heir to an immense fortune, a oligarch playboy with more women than he can handle and a life most people only dream of. In his other life, he moonlights as a Badass Normal Superhero saving more lives before nine A.M. than most people do before lunch. And yet neither of these is the real Oliver Queen. Inside he's hollow, convinced that his life is a sham, and manifests numerous self-destructive tendencies including alcoholism, the inability to commit to anything, and a total disregard for his own safety that's both impressive and frightening. His commitment to saving the world overshadows everything else he does, leading to bouts of drinking, a temporary drug addiction, and culminating in his Interrupted Suicide in Season 9. Tess Mercer: A female variant. Much like Lionel and Lex, whom she succeeds as leader of LuthorCorp, Tess is an incredibly rich young woman, who has successfully escaped an abusive home life. She speaks two or three different languages, is extremely attractive, and has the money and power to do whatever she wants. She also has horribly low self-esteem, no faith in humanity, and a fatalistic need for a Messiah, all stemming from having given up on her former idealism and desire to change the world in favour of moving up in the world. As the show progresses, her ace facade disintegrates more and more, and the Broken Bird underneath is increasingly exposed. Alliances with Checkmate and Major Zod, and an eventual Heelâ€“Face Turn have all failed to give her the sense of self-worth she's seeking.

In his adulthood, he is quite happy where he is. Within the same series, the titular villain of Red Dragon sees himself as hideous due to a childhood of abuse from fellow children and parental figures for his then-severe cleft palate and inability to speak clearly. It's gradually revealed thatâ€”as an adultâ€”he's grown into a handsome bodybuilder with a good career, a large estate, enough intelligence and technical know-how to elude top FBI agents for months, and only a small facial scar and slight lisp left of his initial deformation. Tragically, he's so emotionally damaged he remains mostly unable to benefit from all this, if not outright oblivious to it.

Elsa is intelligent, elegant, graceful, beautiful...and constantly living in fear of hurting people with her ice powers, having to keep up a facade of perfection and stoicism to protect people, only to have it all completely backfire, meaning her life spent in silent misery was for nothing. Needless to say, Elsa finally gets pushed over the edge, though her intentions are always good. Word of God confirms that she has depression and anxiety issues. Prince Hans is outwardly handsome, charming, honourable and a prince. However, desperate hunger for recognition corrupted him and led to him becoming cruel and willing to kill to fulfill his desire for such. He spent much of his life ignored and overshadowed by his older brothers, and it's been confirmed by Word of God that he indeed grew up without love, sparking his desire to take the Arendelle throne in the first place. His actions are still inexcusable, but taking his depressing backstory into account, you can't help but feel sorry for the guy anyway.

He's also a manipulative turncoat who's trying to overthrow the gods, and he seems increasingly scared and unhinged with each book. This is later revealed to be because his mother was cursed and went completely insane when he was a baby and his father, Hermes, left him with her. Associating with an evil primordial entity who hurt him from the start probably didn't help. Percy himself becomes this by the sequel series, and even he admits his unhappiness let him understand Luke better. Sure, he's powerful, handsome (albeit obliviously), and respected by pretty much everyone around him — but it's because he's saved the world twice over, and that doesn't come cheap. It's made clear by the end of The Blood of Olympus that the events of the series have left him even more depressed, angry, and insecure than ever.

Broken Ace / int_98c961e2	comment	Among all the imps in Hell, Blitzo from Helluva Boss would undoubtedly be considered the prime specimen. He's big (by imp standards), strong (by imp standards), immensly successful (by imp standards) and an absolute Sex God (by any standard) who has bedded both the popstar succubus Verosika Mayday and Prince Stolas of the Ars Goetia... He is also very fiscally irresponsible and an absolute mess of psychological issues, ranging from a raging self-contempt which drives him to selfsabotage any relationships he gets into, to a deep-seated fear of Dying Alone which is the end his selfsabotaging ways are pushing him towards. Also, did you notice all the "by imp standards" up there? Blitzo did. He's well-aware of the fact that, in Hell's hierarchy, he is below even the sinners condemned there to suffer. This means that all relationships he's been in (and especially so his current one with Stolas) have an inherent power imbalance. The fact that he also fears that Stolas doesn't respect him but only considers him a plaything does not help. Combine all that with his evident goofiness, and few people even notice how good he is; ironically, the one time someone does, that guy (Striker) is The Ace himself, and he is just about the only one who acknowledges the fact Blitzo is just as good at himself when they compete, even though he is also so full of himself he's not likely to do that easily. Some of Blitzo's achievements in themselves embody both the "ace" and "broken" aspects: his aforementioned affairs with a pop star and a prince that were/are also really messed up, and the fact that he's able to out-drink the archdemon of gluttony (which he explicitly boasts is because he had such an awful day).

He understands how out of depth he is with running a kingdom and would have preferred a life of wandering. Eddard Stark is seen as the model of a liege lord, but he is plagued by feelings of inferiority and fears his family will pay for the things he allowed to happen during the rebellion against the Targaryens. Tywin Lannister is the most powerful and rich lord in Westeros but in reality, he's a man who still resents his father's past failings and remains broken by the death of his wife (and resents the son who whose birth caused her death). Jon Snow is easily the most talented swordsman around, one of the smartest recruits, honorable and dutiful but he's also conflicted, with insecurity issues and carries burdens he's probably too young for. Jaime Lannister, who's renowned as the greatest swordsman in the kingdom and a member of The Beautiful Elite, but had his reputation permanently soiled in his youth by one dishonourable act that he nonetheless regards as the finest thing he ever did, increasingly falling under Then Let Me Be Evil as a result. And that's before his Break the Haughty ordeal that culminates in him losing his sword hand, and hence the one ability he's always defined his self-worth by. Robb Stark becomes this as the books progress, becoming a Young Conqueror at the age of 15 and gaining a fearsome reputation as 'The Young Wolf' who's never lost a battle, but he frequently comes across as being overwhelmed by the pressure he's under. This worsens when despite all his success in the field, his own political errors cause the war to slip away from him. Perhaps the clearest illustration of this comes in A Game of Thrones when Robb, in a Moment of Awesome, successfully earns the Greatjon's respect by having his direwolf chew off two of the man's fingers for bearing steel against him... and later confides in his brother Bran that he was terrified throughout, that he's scared of a lot of his bannermen, and he wishes their father was still there. Oberyn Martell. A dashing Lothario, prince, peerless warrior, poet, scholar, and a whole bunch of other impressive talents. He is also utterly consumed with avenging his sister's death even 15 years later. Said obsession with revenge costs him his life, even if his poisoned spear finished off Gregor Clegane later on.

Broken Ace / int_9e876c22	comment	Crowley from Good Omens. He's a Noble Demon, with a confident, attractive facade (implied to even have an aggressively cool haircut that only looks good on someone like him) and a quick wit. He has a relentlessly stylish apartment full of fancy gadgets, he always seems to have the best of everything and drives the coolest of Cool Cars. However, in spite of the book's ensemble cast, he stands out as pretty much the main viewpoint character, whose thoughts we hear the most, and behind the painfully cool exterior, he's frightened, weary, and eventually very angry, which causes him to rebel against both Heaven and Hell. He's definitely not the slick bastard he appears to be on the outside, but unlike a lot of these characters it ends up making him stronger and extremely sympathetic.

Broken Ace / int_a037ae41	comment	In Fate/Zero, practically every Ace among the Masters. Kiritsugu and his status as the number one competitor, along with everything else, including Saber? Horrible life prior to meeting Maya and Iri, emotional issues, has no choice but to sacrifice his family for his dream, has the worst compatibility with his Servant out of the seven Masters. Kayneth and his prestigious magical talent and status as a Lord? Horrible luck, his fiancÃ©e is in love with his Servant, overwhelmingly arrogant. Kotomine and his superhuman abilities and immense talent for anything and everything he does? None of it means anything to him because of his soul-afflicted emptiness. Tokiomi and his incredible magical skill and having the strongest Servant in the entire Nasuverse? His Servant fully plans to betray him, and he tore apart his own family due to his misguided attempts to make his daughters "equals" while holding true to Magus philosophy. Among the Servants, Lancer, Berserker, and Saber all qualify. Lancer is easily the most skillful combatant out of the lot, but he has terrible luck, bad compatibility with his Master, and a curse that makes women fall in love with him, including said master's fiancÃ©e. Berserker is one of the strongest Servants in the Nasuverse, capable of giving even Archer a hard time even while handicapped by a sickly Master, but he's insane, and so fixated on Saber that he tends to have tunnel vision and thus get blindsided whenever she's around because of his intense guilt over betraying her and sleeping with Guinevere. Also, again, he's handicapped by his Master's frail condition. Saber is the best all-around combatant, and has the strongest overall abilities statwise, but she has the worst Master/Servant compatibility in the war bar none, and is consistently a victim of circumstances, or her Master's underhanded tactics. In addition, she's badly hampered by her guilt complex over her kingdom's fall, and her worry over Irisveil, who is literally dying in front of her with no way to stop it. And that's just how bad things are for them at the start of the conflict; by the end, everything is at least an entire order of magnitude worse for all three of them.

Once a champion swimmer on top of the world, he lost the use of his legs in an accident and was confined to a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He's still a brilliant and remarkably gifted individual (with an ego to match), but he's also internalized a lot of their culture's demands for absolute perfection. As a result, he's got a lot of anger with himself and everyone else. Anton Jr. (Vincent's younger brother) turns out to be something like this as well. The audience doesn't get to know him very well, but he's definitely the Ace in their father's eyes, and seems at least a little Broken considering his issues with the fact that his non-engineered brother beat him in a swimming race once after years and years of beating him every time since they were little kids.

Oberyn Martell is by most measures one of the biggest Aces seen in the series, being charismatic, an extremely adept politician, an incredibly skilled fighter, and a big hit with ladies and men alike (and yes, the feeling is mutual). However, the brutal death of his sister at the hands of a Lannister-hired assassin is shown to be eating away at him from the inside. And it ends up manifesting itself in a case of Revenge Before Reason that sees him being killed in a manner every bit as horrific as his sister, by the same man nonetheless, all because he refused to kill an injured but still very combat-capable warrior until he'd admitted that Tywin Lannister ordered the death of Oberyn's sister.

Their father/creator the Emperor of Mankind. The most powerful psyker to ever live, a brilliant scientist, a ruler who united humanity in a golden age, practically a living god...but his inability to be the father his sons needed dooms himself and the Imperium to a slow wasting death. All that is left of the once-mighty Emperor is a decaying husk trapped between life and death that can only watch as the Imperium falls apart over ten thousand years. This is practically mandatory for anyone competent of high rank in the Imperial Guard and to a lesser degree the Imperail Navy.

All of this masks Taku's extreme resentment and jealousy of Haru. Taku is horribly insecure about his relationship with his girlfriend Chiyu because he believes that Chiyu secretly loves Haru instead of him. In his eyes, Chiyu always looks happier hanging out with Haru than she does when she is with him. All of Taku's achievements — athletics, academics — were done for the sole purpose of making himself better boyfriend material than Haru. Taku even went so far as to use Acceleration to improve his performance — he didn't actually achieve anything through effort alone. He also installed a virus in Chiyu's neuro-link so he can spy on her at any time, making him borderline Stalker with a Crush material. While Taku does turn over a new leaf after Haru forces him into a tie, it's later revealed that he was hazed during kendo practice when he was younger,with other students practicing thrusting techniques on his neck so much that he became suicidal at times, and given that a thrust attack triggers him, he suspects he won't be able to do kendo in high school, since thrusting is legal in high school competitions. Subsequent arcs reveal that he's ultimately just as capable of self-loathing as Haru is, but doesn't deal with it in as constructive of a manner.

Broken Ace / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: Some incarnations of the Doctor from fall under this trope, especially in the revived series, which starts with the premise of the Doctor being forced to kill his own species offscreen. The First Doctor begins to develop into one of these once Ian and Barbara leave the crew and the Doctor begins to come to terms with the massive predicament he's in, while simultaneously suffering a string of adventures with major Downer Endings. After Steven says Screw This, I'm Out of Here! at the end of "The Massacre", he has a full-blown Heroic BSoD and is far more delicate and fearful afterward. The revived series has gone on to show he was broken before he became an ace, growing up he spent his nights in a barn crying himself to sleep, his Only Friend eventually went insane and became his Arch-Enemy and he eventually admitted the real reason he left Gallifrey was that he was scared. The Tenth Doctor is confident and cavalier on the outside, but he suffers from survivor's guilt and verges on self-loathing on the inside. The Eleventh Doctor is a charming, charismatic, moral, slightly eccentric, Chaste Hero on the outside. At first, his confidence seems genuine, but as time passes it quickly becomes apparent that Eleven is just as riddled with grief, rage and self-loathing as Ten. The War Doctor is the only doctor who is openly this. The ultimate Nice Guy Fifth Doctor had become this by the end of his run resulting in him becoming the Darker and Edgier 6th and 7th Doctors. The same thing then happened when the Eighth Doctor transitioned to the War and 9th Doctors. "The Daleks' Master Plan": Sara Kingdom is Mavic Chen's best agent, a hero in her organisation, said in awed tones to have "The Strength of Ten Men". She shoots Bret Vyon (a "traitor" allied to the Doctor) and was sent to murder the Doctor and his companion too, and would have done it if they hadn't been accidentally teleported to the planet Mira. While on Mira, the Doctor confronts her, clearly in a disturbed psychological state, and she eventually admits Bret was her brother. She joins the Doctor's side soon afterward. Captain Jack Harkness, later of Torchwood. Dashingly handsome, brave, cocky and nigh-immortal...but after being abandoned by the Doctor for being "wrong", suffering trauma after his repeated deaths, seeing everyone he loves die in battle or of old age, and now having being forced to allow his own grandson to be killed he's definitely a Broken Ace. He also has a Dark and Troubled Past. He still feels guilt over getting his brother captured by a vicious alien race. Even during his time as a temporal agent, it wasn't all gallivanting through history and screwing anyone and everything (although there was a fair bit of that too). He has a chunk of memory the size of 2 years missing, although he completely forgets about it after meeting the Doctor.

But the film establishes that he has grown disillusioned with the Forever War that is the Arabâ€“Israeli Conflict, and that he would rather follow his dream of being a hair stylist. He fakes his own death just so he doesn't have to fight people.

She is also incredibly bitter due to being abandoned by anyone who could love her and is desperate to find anyone who could unconditionally love her. Dr. Frankenstein goes through this in Season Two. In his cursed identity as Dr. Wael, he's a stereotypical arrogant hypercompetent surgeon, but when the curse is lifted he goes through a mini Trauma Conga Line and loses all confidence in himself and medicine in general, descending into alcoholism and depression. Which is a problem when an out-of-towner crashes his car and Wael is the only one who can save his life. Ruby helps him get over it and he resumes work as the town doctor, with some much needed perspective and humility.

He is also the antagonist and portrayed as deludedly-idealistic to believe that his plan will work. He even has a slight Villainous BSoD after enacting his plan, although the film version ramps his emotional broken-ness up several levels. He shows approximately three times the guilt, self-loathing and painful isolation of his comic book counterpart, even saying he "often [feels] stupid at being unable to relate to anybody". He spends his last few minutes of screentime in a Villainous BSOD, staring into space and looking about ready to fall over as the camera zooms out on him.

She's also rich, as well as the previous head of Yagiri pharmaceuticals. Oh, and did we mention she's a virtually emotionless Jerkass who's madly in love with her brother? Another example is Shizuo Heiwajima's younger brother, Kasuka. Rich, talented, brilliant, beautiful and...off. The fact that he hooked up with a serial killer should tell you just how off. Even said Serial Killer, Ruri, described him as being out of his mind. Izaya Orihara. Smart, rich, connected, Bishōnen, good at fighting, and an incredibly awful sociopath underneath, who will go as far as tricking girls into making Suicide Pacts with him For the Lulz and manipulate other people for the same reason.

Broken Ace / int_ef7b3325	comment	Fantastic Four: This is largely the point of Doctor Doom. He's a scientific genius to rival Reed Richards, a magical prodigy who approaches Doctor Strange in power, and physically fit enough that he can kill lions bare-handed; he rules a nation as semi-benevolent dictator, adheres to a code of always repaying his debts, has enough willpower to stare down the Purple Man without flinching, and wears a suit of armour on par with that sported by Iron Man. He could, in theory, be one of the Marvel Universe's greatest forces for good, because in power level you can pick almost any three superheroes and he's the equal of all of them. Unfortunately for the Marvel Universe, his egomania will never stop clouding his judgment. When Reed Richards pointed out a mistake in Doom's calculations, he spat in Reed's face, and when his experiment went wrong and scarred him, he blamed Reed rather than admit, even to himself, that he screwed up, and dedicated the rest of his life to a needless revenge for a nonexistent crime. His hideous scarring is his own fault because believing his good looks to already be ruined by the thin scar he had received, he donned the iron mask to his first suit of armour without waiting for it to cool first. His people fear him more than love him; he has no friends; most of his intellectual equals are superheroes who would be suspicious at an invitation to discuss something; he's a pariah on the international stage. All because of his swollen ego.

Broken Ace / int_f8df4747	comment	The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye: Skids is a smart, likeable superspy with the Outlier power to master any skill in no time. He also has some really awful repressed memories. His memory of having been tricked into helping the Decepticons murder 500 prisoners at Grindcore is so traumatic that when it's fully restored, he undergoes Death by Despair. Getaway is a charming, funny, quirky escape artist who joins the team as a Sixth Ranger, immediately gets them out of a prison cell, and gets some funny snark about Rodimus. Once you get underneath that, though, he's driven by an all-consuming inferiority complex and obsession with being recognised as "special", especially since his name comes from him panicking in his first battle. He ends up self-destructing by inches, alternately driving away and betraying anyone who actually liked him, until eventually he's left with nothing but the desire to kill Rodimus...and when he thinks he's about to, his death arrives, cloaked in his dream of God anointing him a worthy Prime. Fortress Maximus was a strong, noble warrior prior to The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers. Now he's a traumatised, rage-driven wreck who takes the ship's psychiatrist hostage because his need to beat Prowl into a metallic smear as payback for abandoning him to Overlord's tender mercies for three years is just that all-consuming. When he takes over from Ultra Magnus as the enforcer of the Tyrest Accord, he totally lacks Magnus's By-the-Book Cop traits, instead defaulting to a much more brutal approach to the Decepticons (at least until the Scavengers show him the potential for something better).

Most commonly it's presented as depression (despite his reputation, someone he commands always dies) or post-traumatic stress (four million years of war can do that to you). There are also some who argue that in various elements of the Transformers Aligned Universe, including High Moon Studios' games and the Transformers: Prime series, Optimus is subtly coded as being autistic. Some critics of Michael Bay's movies even snark that the long war has unhinged that Optimus into a psychopathic monster.

Broken Ace / int_fd49dcff	comment	Die Another Day villain Gustav Graves is charming, talented, and insanely rich (from blood diamonds). However, he is really a North Korean with plastic surgery building a Kill Sat to help his faction finally win the war. He has daddy issues too, and really really hates anything Western. He admits to having based the Graves persona partly on Bond. Speaking of James Bond, while he's known to be a suave agent known to use cutting Bond One Liners to enemies and his status as The Casanova, he's sometimes portrayed like this, especially in the rebooted films. In Spectre, it's sad to see Bond's virtually character-less apartment, as it reveals how little of a life he has beyond MI6, and what a lonely and broken man he is. Moneypenny's sarcastic remark about Bond's life in Spectre when he hears her boyfriend over the phone almost sounds like a much harsher jab. Even the rejected song by Radiohead is depressing as hell. It pretty much is a summation of Bond's character and all of the tragedies he suffered over the years. Just read here.
