My Species Doth Protest Too Much	comment	When you're on the Planet of Hats for too long, someone's hat is going to fall off. The probability of this happening seems to be directly proportional to the flamboyance of the hat. That is, if Bob's planet is filled to the brim with Blood Knights, who proclaim "The greatest glory is to die in battle!" and "Only the strong survive!" over dinner, expect Bob to be a Pacifist. There are a number of reasons why this happens: There is a Writer on Board who wants to do An Aesop about hypocrisy or just an excuse to show why the Proud Warrior Race Guy has defected to a rival group. So that the human characters can show their inherent moral superiority by demonstrating that they really care more about honor than the Proud Warrior Race Guy. Deconstruction: Real people don't come from the Planet of Hats, and when you've got an entire species who has only one character trait among them, there are only so many interesting stories you can tell before you've got to make the characters more complex. Plain old logic: Think about which individuals among them would choose to go live and work with humans. Often happens to races who seem at first to be Always Chaotic Evil, resulting in them proving themselves to be Not Always Evil thanks to the occasional Token Heroic Orc. May lead to a previously-unified Single-Species Nation devolving into an Enemy Civil War as those who reject the hat fight the ones who love it. Despite the fact that the Klingon Scientists Get No Respect, they may not believe this trope and choose to "rebel" in order to enable their peers to wear their hat. This trope's name comes from the oft-(mis-)quoted line from William Shakespeare's Hamlet, "The lady doth protest too much, methinks." Note that in Shakespeare's time, "protest" meant "proclaim solemnly or firmly" (which, in context "the lady" was suspiciously overdoing). That's the opposite of its modern western connotation, "dissent loudly", although it still occurs in "Protestant Christianity" and "to protest one's innocence".note However, in this case, it works with either definition Using the example from above, Bob's warrior species "protests too much" by overly avowing violence, when all Bob wants to do is flirt with Alice the Granola Girl. It could also work with the modern definition, in that they are protesting against Bob's behavior. Related to Cultural Rebel, Disappointing Heritage Reveal, Stop Being Stereotypical, and Stereotype Flip. All of the Other Reindeer is a variant of this. Square Race, Round Class is when the character's job (not necessarily their personality) contrasts with expectations of their species. Rogue Drone is an instance of this within a Hive Mind. Compare Father, I Don't Want to Fight and Pro-Human Transhuman. See also Black Sheep and White Sheep. If Bob is seen as more admirable by outsiders for having rejected his hat, You Are a Credit to Your Race may be invoked. When every member of a race that we see subverts their supposed attribute, it becomes an Informed Attribute.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_110dcdca	comment	According to Queen Oren in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, River Zoras are technically allies of the Hylians but are usually very territorial and will attack anyone inside said territory despite her giving them orders NOT to attack Hylians. This also explains the River Zoras' hostility compared to the Zoras of the post-Ocarina of Time console games. The same game features a timid Hinox who will give Link money for leaving him alone. Demand too many Rupees, however, and he'll get angry and attack. There's also a friendly Octorok who will play baseball with you.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_13646ab7	comment	Pale: Sir Toadswallow, the leader of the goblins around Kennet, is highly unusual for a goblin. Goblins are usually vulgar, gross, violent, and equate brute force with authority. Toadswallow, on the other hand, minds his manners and watches his speech (especially when kids are around), dresses in nice clothing (though putting nice clothes on a goblin body makes him look kind of odd), actively builds friendships and alliances with humans, and, despite being only average-sized for a goblin, has risen to a position of prominence and authority using his intelligence and people skills. He is still a goblin: he's very capable of brutality and violence when the situation calls for it, and he does still enjoy being vulgar and crude, he just knows how to reign it in and exercize self-control. Even the goblins that like him admit that he's bizarrely un-goblinlike.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_14d341dc	comment	A number of races in Star Trek Online: Romulans and Remans siding with the Romulan Republic are this, tired of the backstabbing and treachery of old and would rather help reunite with their Vulcan comrades. Federation players can play as Klingons with the reasoning that they'd rather not continue on with the Klingon Empire's constant bloodlust. Players can encounter the Gorn aiding the Orion Syndicate on Nimbus III. When a Gorn player confronts them, they declare that they've strayed from their path by siding with the Klingons. With the recent Season 8 addition, players can now add the Voth to their Duty Officer roster, the reasoning being that they believe that their long-held Doctrine, which made them Holier Than Thou, is a load of dino dung. Downplayed with the Breen bridge officer you can get from playing the "Breen Invasion" story arc during featured episode events. Tran may have defected from the Breen Confederacy to whichever side you're on, but it's because he focuses on the "Proud" part of Proud Warrior Race Guy and believes his commanding officer's tactics, which include terror attacks on Deferi civilians, to be dishonorable.

The exception is Mr. Golly◊, who runs a garage station in Toy Town and friends with Noddy and Mr. Plod. However, the Golliwogs later were replaced by The Goblins (notably Sly and Gobbo) due to the gollwogs being racial stereotypes.

Alt-Riff. As a citizen of the Dimension of Lame, he's supposed to be completely good/nice. However, it's eventually revealed that one of his inventions accidentally killed his dimension's Torg.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_1de234dc	comment	Taylor Anderson's Destroyermen series has a violent race of Lizard Folk called the Grik who only care about the Hunt. Most of them are the mindless Uul. A few have grown to a level of maturity and intelligence to become members of the ruling class called the Hij. The Hij constantly seek out new prey for their hordes of Uul. The Hij care little for the Uul, using We Have Reserve tactics to defeat the prey. In the third novel, the crew of the USS Walker meets a Grik-like creature whom some humans have named Lawrence. Lawrence has striped coloring, unusual for a Grik, and is actually quite calm. He reveals that his people, the Tagranesi, who are of the same species as the Grik but are a different race. Unlike the Grik, the Tagranesi care for their young and teach them to be civilized and cooperative. They peacefully interact with the New British Empire and have even learned to understand and speak (to an extent) English. They still hunt but only for food and to kill dangerous predators. They also defend themselves against other tribes. They also never engage in cannibalism and consider the thought repugnant, unlike their Grik cousins.

The first, Veil in The Outcast of Redwall, smacked into Redemption Equals Death. The third, Romsca in Pearls of Lutra, also had to die for her chance at redemption (although to be fair, the scene was moving). Blaggut in The Bellmaker is the only named vermin character who had never seemed evil to begin with, probably because he wasn't bright enough to be a true threat. There were also all the surviving rats on the island in Marlfox. At least, they seemed pretty happy and content to live without weapons and evil rulers. The same thing seems to happen in Eulalia, which also contains a hedgehog who starts out a spoiled kleptomaniac (though he does reform) and a downright rotten vole (voles were an "either/or" species in the Redwall books— a previous vole character was entirely indifferent to others, spying on his fellow slaves for the villains).

When Ratchet meets him, the former is immediately prepared to melee the latter to death until it turns out that he's sentient, but during that moment the mutant welcomes the potential Mercy Kill as he considers his abnormal intelligence a burden, which Clank can sympathize with due to being a defective warbot. Giving him some bolts to eat is required to progress to the planet Damosel.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_2dfb1427	comment	In Baldur's Gate, the Player Character itself is a child of the God of Murder, and although you are allowed to follow in Daddy's footsteps as a force of evil, the game mostly expects the player to want to be a hero and act in a nice way. The PC's half-sister, Imoen, is in the same circumstance as a Child of Bhaal and is distinctly on the bright and cheerful side of Good. All your other Brothers and Sisters, however, are Warlords and Mass-Murderers to a man/woman/elf/drow/fire giant/dragon/half-dragon/werechincilla... On the other hand, the first game shows that the murderous Children of Bhaal have actually been hunting the less power-hungry axe-wielding ones, and so the ones that the player gets to meet are the "cream of the crop". This is especially true for the Throne of Bhaal expansion, where most of the Bhaalspawn are met. In a Brick Joke, we do actually get to meet a relatively peaceful, non Ax-Crazy Bhaalspawn- During the Shadows of Amn, a man in a bar yells, "A Bhaalspawn? Here?" And seemingly explodes/teleports. In the Throne of Bhaal, we learn that his Bhaalspawn ability is that he teleports whenever he gets really scared. Unfortunately, to "help him," the Big Bad removes his ability to be afraid. Which would be great- Except the city he's in is under siege by a Bhaalspawn who wants to kill all his siblings. A Side Quest involves helping him out, although it's possible the teleportation scrambling magic killed him- According to the end game, you and Imoen were the only ones left alive, so they probably got him somehow.

Teckla are supposed to be cowardly peasants, but in the novel Teckla, Vlad meets one who is a rather insufferable revolutionary. Athyra, which has a Teckla as the viewpoint character, suggests that Teckla only seem cowardly out of necessity because they're at such a disadvantage to other Houses. Dragons are known for being militaristic and ultra-ambitious, but Vlad's partner Kragar is totally unambitious. He's also so completely ignorable that it became impossible for him to actually command troops, forcing him out of the house altogether.

He gains approval if the Inquisitor takes him along to kill Venatori (rogue Tevinter sorcerers) and outright scolds his evil former teacher Alexius for acting exactly like the "cliche villain" people think Tevinters act. Sera is an elf who was raised by a human (and subject to No True Scotsman from her fellow elves) and as a consequence disdains other elves for their obsession with their cultural traditions and past; the easiest way to annoy her is to act "elfy" in her presence. Iron Lady Vivienne is largely unsympathetic towards the plight of the mages because she feels they are the ones responsible for instigating the war. Being Pro-Circle, Vivienne also argues that complete mage independence is a bad idea - dangerous both for mages, since many non-mages have a very hostile and fearful attitude towards magic, and for non-mages, who are at the mercy of untrained and uncontrolled magic.

Thanks to being raised on Earth and his head injury, Goku is a softhearted, kind man, while the Saiyans were ruthless Jerkasses who committed planetary genocide for profit. When Goku learned that he is a Saiyan, he initially denounced his race and wanted nothing to do with them. After the events of Namek, he does embrace his Saiyan heritage, although he makes a point to say that he's a Saiyan raised on Earth. Dragon Ball Super has a perfect example with Zamasu. an apprentice Supreme Kai and one of the main villains (technically the only villain, just multiple versions of himself) of the Future Trunks Saga. As a whole, the Kais are Always Lawful Good and serve as benevolent Gods of Creation. Zamasu, however, looks down on mortals, views them as Always Chaotic Evil, and ultimately embarks on a genocidal rampage against them in the belief that the universe would be better off without them and even goes so far as to murder all his fellow Kais to keep them from getting in his way. In Dragon Ball Heroes, this is how Froze, a member of Frieza's race, felt. In the debut trailer for Froze, an alien child throws a rock at him, clearly thinking that he's a bad guy like Frieza. He gets over it after Froze saves his life.

Interestingly, in Dobby's case, you don't find out he follows this trope until two books later in Goblet of Fire, when you encounter some house-elves still wearing their Happiness in Slavery hats. Leads to some Blue-and-Orange Morality, because, for most house-elves, "freeing" them (or even offering to pay them) is cruelty, because it essentially means firing them from the job they love. Dumbledore deals with this by keeping house-elves at Hogwarts, but treating them well and freeing and/or paying them if they should happen to want it. Dobby is also shown to downplay this trope when he reveals that Dumbledore offered him the standard human wage and weekends off, but Dobby instead requested 10% of the salary and one day off a month, saying that he didn't want too much freedom or at least compensation. Firenze is nearly killed by his herd for dismissing their ideology and "betraying them" by accepting a paying position as a teacher from a wizard in Order of the Phoenix and is only saved by Hagrid's timely intervention.

Of course, the opposite may hold true instead, with the Citadel of Ricks being this to the rest of "Rick-kind" for preferring a structured life on The Citadel as opposed to anarchic existence, and Rick C-137 being an example of the norm for all Ricks.

The books introduced Vua Rapuung (an embittered and vengeful but honorable ex-warrior who'd been burned by a love affair gone sour), Nen Yim (a Punch-Clock Villain with enough redeeming traits she probably would have been an outright heroine had she not been raised in a culture that had no problem with using sentient beings as lab rats) and fleshed out the Shamed Ones, the Vong's oppressed slave caste who didn't give a damn about their superiors' genocidal ambitions. Before that, we had Nom Anor, who was every bit as evil as his colleagues, but evil of a completely different flavor- he was a self-serving, cowardly Manipulative Bastard in contrast to their violent fanaticism.

Most Pattern Screamers are serious threats to anything with an imagination, because being forced to exist causes them pain. Paty, on the other hand, chose to become completely part of reality by becoming a virtual youtuber, to the point where existing is no longer painful. The Foundation tries to curtail her career to contain her, but they eventually realize that she's a Sheep in Sheep's Clothing and instead help her become a member of hololive, after editing her presented backstory so it no longer contained reference to any anomalies.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_43576f5	comment	Played with in Supernatural with the demon Ruby. There are a lot of suggestions (particularly in the third series) that she has retained her humanity, particularly the capacity for empathy. Throughout the third and fourth series, the other characters bring this into question a lot. There's also the question of the Angel Castiel, particularly his unquestioning obedience and how disconnected he really is from human suffering. Eventually Cas goes rogue from Heaven and begins to slowly Fall into a human, firmly joining the Winchester group of True Companions despite remaining a weirdo. Then he dies. Then he gets better, with new and improved powers. Then he goes slowly over the deep end while trying to lead the pro-human side of the Second War In Heaven, and eventually betrays everyone in the quest for enough power to end all this suffering, and declares A God Am I...if we throw in the mid-Season Four brainwashing to sew his hat back on, this guy has spent three seasons (half the series) playing Three-Handed-Hat-Juggling. Ruby turns out to be a subversion, however, when it's revealed that she's actually The Mole, and the whole thing was an act to gain the Winchesters' (particularly Sam's) trust. Meg is probably the least demon-y of all demons. Though still clearly evil and enjoys the pain of others, she is willing to work with the Winchesters for her own benefit even though killing them would effectively take the target off her back. Most demons torture or kill without question, which is why most of them wear Red Shirts. Crowley seems better fit for human life as he is more civilized and always up for a good negotiation. This makes him similar to Todd from Stargate Atlantis or Ba'al from Stargate SG-1. They're all bad but they at least give you time for a nice conversation before trying to kill you.

Their city is made of green and yellow glass, they dress in green and yellow, they're humans who have yellow-green skin. In contrast, the Pharesian sect are Cymrillians who got sick of the color green, left their homeland in disgust, and dress in multicolored garments while painting their bodies with every color but green. Later editions played it more realistically: the monochromatic color scheme is just a demonstration of Cymril's excessive conformity, which is what the Pharesians really hate.

However, the Brotherhood of Ash defected from the mainstream Ifrit worshipers, claiming that they've discarded their honor in their mad worship, and work to rescue captured innocents before they're tempered. The Ixal usually commit atrocities against the peoples of The Black Shroud in the hopes that their deity, Garuda will make their vestigial feathers into full wings. A specific group of them declare the effort to be pointless, moving from Coerthas to the North Shroud, where they (with your help, of course) work to build a new kind of airship to reach higher than has ever been recorded. The Sahagin view the cities of La Noscea as encroaching upon their spawning grounds, and so retaliate by attacking nearby villages, capturing and tempering many in service of Leviathan. Though the group you help care little for the people attacked, they note that the constant fighting only makes it harder to maintain the spawning grounds. Inverted with The Sylphs of Little Solace. Though normally a race that prefers to live in isolation and play inconvenient but harmless pranks on travelers, the Seventh Umbral Calamity caused them to panic and summon their deity, Ramuh. This had the side effect of tempering a majority of the Sylph population, twisting their playful tendencies into an urge to purge all outside forces from the woods, up to the point of planting poison-spewing mushrooms, training the condor population as attack birds, and planting bombs around the vicinity.

The Gnath are an insectoid Hive Mind that worships the Primal Ravana. The Nonmind Gnath are individual who've for one reason or another broken from the greater Hive Mind and fight to maintain their newfound individuality. The Vanu-Vanu invert this. The enemy Vanu-Vanu encountered are part of the Vundu tribe, which is made up of aggressive conquerors. The other tribe oppose the Vundu and see the Bismark that they worship as a fake god that threatens their home with its insatiable appetite.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_4a059a74	comment	Boba Fett comes across as this in The Mandalorian. He never gives a straight answer whether or not he himself is a Mandalorian, despite his father having been a foundling. He seems to hold himself above the petty squabblings between different Mandalorian factions, and even dismisses reclaiming Mandalore as a fool's errand when he meets "true" Mandalorians Bo-Katan Kryze and Koska Reeves in Chapter 16. He only really engages them when they dismiss him as not being Mandalorian, and a disgrace to his armor. This causes a bar brawl between him and Reeves after Bo-Katan refers to Jango Fett as his "donor".

Senna is a quarian who unlike every other quarian doesn't despise AI (and has much deep-rooted self-loathing about that one), and thinks their obsession with reclaiming Rannoch is stupid. Meanwhile, there's Borbala, who initially seems about as stereotypically batarian as it's possible to get... then it turns out other batarians hate her because she thought the Hegemony could've stood to knock off their attitude and focus on things like art and philosophy. And the Hegemony thought she was protesting too much, so they tried to kill her.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_5908ee91	comment	Skyrim Paarthurnax, the leader of the Greybeards. During the Dragon Wars, he was the top lieutenant of Alduin, but had a change of heart and instead chose to aid the Ancient Nords, teaching them the Thu'um and thus allowing them to turn the tide against the Dragons. Despite being the closest thing in the game to a Big Good, he tells the Dragonborn that he still has the innate desire to destroy and dominate as all Dragons do and has to constantly fight to keep his urges in check. He lampshades that the same is true for the Dragonborn as well. In Skyrim you can meet several Altmer who openly despise the Thalmor, the despotic State Sec ruling the re-formed Aldmeri Dominion. The Thalmor essentially play up the worst stereotypes of the Altmer overall. One is a Legate in the Imperial Legion who will readily tell you a story about dissident Altmer refugees being ambushed and slaughtered by Thalmor operatives. Another is a shopkeeper in Windhelm who offers to use her black market contacts to help smuggle the local priest and priestess of Talos out of the city should the Thalmor ever come by. Unsurprisingly, the Thalmor consider any Altmer who do not support them to not be "true" Altmer. One group that gets hit hard with this by the Thalmor are the Psijic Order, a powerful Magical Society and the oldest monastic order in Tamriel. The Order and the Thalmor have an extreme mutual hatred for one another. The second disappearance of Artaeum (the island home of the Psijics) in the 4th Era is believed to be directly related to the rise of Thalmor influence. The Thalmor come off as The Resenter, as the Order is an Aldmeri organization with immense magical knowledge but one that absolutely will not tow the Thalmor line or share that knowledge. And naturally, any Altmer Dragonborn who sides with the Empire or even the Stormcloaks to give the Thalmor the boot will be an example by default. Reversed in one case with Gissur, a Nord beggar who acts as a Thalmor stool pigeon, selling information to them in exchange for coin. He thinks his fellow Nords complain too much about the Thalmor and is clearly an individual not meant to be liked or sympathized with, and would likely qualify as Too Dumb to Live as the Thalmor's hostility towards all humans is established fact. Gissur will usually meet his end at the hands of the Dragonborn during the main story, usually being killed in an attempted ambush along with his Thalmor masters. Also in Skyrim, the Nords are portrayed as being mistrustful of magic at best, then you meet a few Nord mages who go against the general Nordic rejection of magic. This appears to be a societal thing, as when you go to Sovngarde, the Nordic afterlife, the gatekeeper Tsun says that modern Nords "have forgotten their forefathers' respect for the Clever Craft." Faryl Atheron, a Dunmer in Windhelm, works at a Nord farm and complains of his fellow Dunmers' "harping about injustices." Orcs have a reputation of being warriors, and you can meet some old ones while traveling who wish to challenge you to combat so they can die a good death in battle. However, the librarian of the College of Winterhold is an orc who takes his job quite seriously. The Gourmet, the most famous chef in Skyrim, turns out to be an Orc — and he's distinctly not a warrior, begging for his life if you come to assassinate him and going down in a single attack. Some Reachmen, such as Ainethach (the owner of the mines of Karthwasten) and Bothela (the owner of the Hag's Cure alchemy shop), lament that so many of their friends and relatives are dying over what they deem a "lost cause" as members of the Forsworn. Non-Forsworn Reachmen are constantly accused by the Forsworn and the Nords of supporting the opposing side, leaving them stuck in the middle. In the Dawnguard DLC, you can meet Knight-Paladin Gelebor, the last surviving uncorrupted Falmer. He prefers to be called a "Snow Elf" to avoid the negative connotations of the debased Falmer, who he refers to as "the Betrayed." He pities them, but also believes that their current situation is at least partly of their own making, averting the Freudian Excuse most give the Falmer.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_5bd0554b	comment	Darkspear and Revantusk trolls from Warcraft are sociable, loyal to the orcs, and hate gave up cannibalism due to devotion to the Horde in sharp contrast to the other trolls who are cannibalistic and xenophobic. The latter is somehow even able to get along with, or at least tolerate, their ancient enemies the high/blood elves. Another example would be Eitrigg, an Orc who left the evil Horde as he saw that they have abandoned the Proud Warrior Race Guy ways and have become Always Chaotic Evil under demonic influence. He later on returns to the Horde after they have become good again under Thrall's leadership. The Darkspear/Revantusk-Blood Elf relations are a testament both to how atypical those tribes are and how far blood elves have come from being a race on the brink of extinction to where they are now. Several of the undead who joined the Argent Crusade seem to feel this way about the Forsaken, most notably Leonid Barthalomew.

The Steel Meridian syndicate is a faction of defectors fighting back, specifically by protecting the innocent civilians and colonists caught up in the war. Several other syndicates dislike them for being too quick to forgive Grineer defectors, no matter the crimes they committed while serving the empire. The Kavor take it a step farther, being fully pacifist Grineer just trying to escape the war altogether. The empire refers to this as the "Pacifism Defect," a genetic flaw that needs to be rooted out and destroyed. Steel Meridian, of course, recruits the Tenno to protect them. The Corpus are a loose alliance of Mega Corps who will do absolutely anything for profit. The Perrin Sequence believe that the best way to make a profit is to look after your workers and your customers, not to screw everyone over. They often hire the Tenno to fight the larger Corpus factions. On the other end of the Corpus hierarchy, the people of Fortuna are debt slaves who are supposed to be terraforming Venus for their Corpus masters. However, they've managed to avoid being outright mind-controlled like most poor Corpus soldiers, and hire the Tenno as a deniable strike force against the Corpus.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_5c66fff9	comment	Neverwinter Nights 2, by a different developer, does this a few times. Inverted with Khelgar Ironfist. Khelgar is considered by some fans to be a stereotypical dwarf but this ignores the fact that most of the rest of his clan looks down on him because he professes to be an honorable warrior while, in fact, being little better than a drunken thug. As a result, it is Khelgar who fails to live up to Dwarven standards of honor and dignity, though Player Character can remedy this. Hagspawn are ugly, often violent brutes with none of the magical power their hag mothers have... except for Gannayev, your hagspawn companion in the Mask of the Betrayer expansion pack, who is instead a handsome Casanova with the ability to enter and travel through people's dreams (a power he uses to get laid even in his sleep). It's a Justified Trope in this case: Instead of his mother raping and then eating his father as is usual for hags, the two were actually in love. Umoja the Druid from Storm of Zehir, is a hilarious Large Ham rather than being obsessed with balance like the typical druid. In the words of writer Annie Carlson "I made him SPECIFICALLY to be easygoing and not to be all "blah blah blee bloo balance" all the time but to just be awesome". Belueth the Calm, also from Storm of Zehir, is a Neutral Evil aasimar, a cold, hard-hearted mercenary, and professional thief. Aasimar, humans with good-aligned extraplanar beings in their ancestry, are usually good-aligned and often attracted to paladinhood.

Exceptions to this rule exist, such as Orion (due to him being raised by someone far nobler), his wife Bekka (born and raised in Apokolips and heroic in every way that counts), and Big Barda (groomed from young age to be a ruthless warrior for Darkseid's elite before she switched sides). Darkseid's Parademons are typically mindless monsters with no free will of their own that obey their master without question. Though in very rare occasions, some Parademons develop their own sentience and turn become peaceful creatures that just want to be left alone such as "Mike" and 3g4.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_611c72dc	comment	Naturally, this shows up sometimes in the Star Trek Novel 'Verse: Two of the alien characters in the Star Trek novella series Starfleet Corps of Engineers fit the trope. The first is P8 Blue the Nasat, who likes to "shake things up" and have adventures, in contrast to the rest of the Nasats, who are typically super-cautious, conservative, and hate taking risks. There's also Soloman the Bynar (formally known as 110), who received his name after his mate died, and he refused to return home and take a new partner as expected. But the trope is averted with the third alien character, Tev, who is very much the stereotypical Tellarite. This is noted by a human character, who in fact thinks Tev is the most stereotypical Tellarite he's ever encountered. In Star Trek: Ex Machina, there's Spring Rain on Still Water the Megarite. Most Megarite females spend their lives sitting on beaches, doing little else, and consider travel to be "beneath" a female. Spring Rain On Still Water, though, prefers a more adventurous life and believes her people's lack of interest in exploration or contact with offworlders is a dangerous trait in a culture. She has in turn been condemned by her matriarchs for "lowering" herself. Imzadi features a female Orion scientist, who makes a point of being as unlike a typical Orion woman as possible because that is the only way anyone would take a female Orion scientist seriously. She even wears Purely Aesthetic Glasses.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: Early editions note that Always Chaotic Evil needn't mean Always, just "the exceptions are less than one-millionth of the overall population" (in the case of the Modrons, that exception is almost surely of the same alignment as the common Modron, ruleswise, but still). Merely usually Chaotic Evil races (such as the drow) have a fairly significant portion of the populace with other alignments... such as Neutral Evil. A designer once mentioned in regards to cambions (half demon-half human Always Chaotic Evil types) that if you say one in one hundred cambions aren't evil, that's the one the party will meet. Eberron: When the setting was designed, its writers figured this trope was inevitable and threw most alignment restrictions out the window. Nusemnee, introduced in a supplement on dead gods, is the daughter of Zehir, evil god of poison and a devil, but became a good-aligned goddess of redemption. One of the D&D Fight club characters is a succubus paladin named Eludecia. She is redeemed through The Power of Love and grows to become a powerful force for good. The main version is a heroic individual, but the same article provides stats for her assuming she falls back to evil somehow. The Book of Exalted Deeds has a mind flayer who learned the error of its ways and chose to fight for the good guys. It has a feat, Vow of Poverty, that gives it the ability to survive without eating, but there's some Fridge Horror in what, exactly it did in the time period between when it became redeemed and when it earned that featnote in the usual lore, while mind flayers eat brains, what they gain nourishment from is sapience — they can persist on animal brains, but the quantities they require are much, much higher than if they go for humanoid brains.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_6c1234ed	comment	In the Dwarf Fortress fandom, there's Cacame Awemedinade, the Elf King of the Dwarves. Elves in Dwarf Fortress are usually cannibalistic extremists about protecting nature (they'll declare war on you if you cut down too many trees), but Cacame was raised in a Dwarven civilization and grew up with their ethics. Eventually, his elven wife was slain and eaten by other elves, and he later became the King of the Dwarves. The fandom has it that he rose through the ranks through sheer hatred of his own species, and he's the fandom's biggest Memetic Badass.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_6e1d5f36	comment	On Farscape, Scarrans are generally aggressive, tyrannical, and utterly ruthless... except for Naj Gil, the Peacekeeper test-subject encountered in "Fractures." Acting as The Big Guy to the Similar Squad of fugitives, he wasn't exactly the most sociable of the group, but he was definitely the calmest of them; apparently spending time being tortured and surgically abused by Peacekeeper weapons scientists did a lot to dispel the usual Scarran arrogance. He gets bridge-dropped in his second appearance. While we don't see many Nebari during the show's run, what we do see suggests that Chiana was very atypical. The other Nebari are militaristic and devoted to the state, while she is a criminal and a tralk. One episode reveals that she and her brother Neri were secretly infected with a disease and allowed to flee Nebari space since they would sleep around and infect many members of enemy races.

Canon examples include Theo Bell, a Brujah and a stoic Consummate Professional, Beckett, a Gangrel and perhaps the foremost Kindred scholar in history, and Hesha Ruhadze, a Setite who hardly comes across as Obviously Evil as the rest of his brethren, even though he totally is. The Brujah are often the clan most likely to encounter this trope, as they used to be regarded as an esteemed line of warrior-scholars... that eventually traded reason for passion and have come to seen as the consummate angry punk vampire. Still, in modern nights, the line will occasionally produce an academic who is capable of mastering their rage and presenting an academic demeanor.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_70814599	comment	Stargate SG-1: The Goa'uld were presented as Always Chaotic Evil in the first season. In the second, we got the Tok'ranote Who are the same species as the Goa'uld but instead of forcibly taking hosts' bodies and suppressing the hosts' minds, the Tok'ra share the bodies and only take willing hosts—usually terminally ill people whom the symbiote could cure., effectively La RÃ©sistance against the System Lords. Later still, we got an actual explanation, based on a piece of Applied Phlebotinum used by the Goa'uld but not the Tok'ra, for why some of them become evil and others don't - repeated sessions in the sarcophagus that heals, resurrects, and maintains the agelessness of the Goa'uld have a bad effect on a person's sense of morality and empathy (and thus it's also dangerous for humans to overuse sarcophagi). Along with the fact that most of the Tok'ra are descended from a single queen who broke with the other Goa'uld in early days before they had become fully entrenched in their evil, and both Goa'uld and Tok'ra pass on their philosopies to their larvae through Genetic Memory. They've had a very few turnovers from the Goa'uld since, but none in the last few centuries. Subverted in season four when a Jaffa named Shau'nac insists she learned to communicate with her larval Goa'uld and teach it the error of its ways. The possibility that Goa'uld with the evil-inducing genetic memory could be converted to the side of good is an exciting prospect for the heroes...then it turns out the Goa'uld tricked Shau'nac to infiltrate the Tok'ra.

Presumably he means the other monsters. In The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, the Minish are a race who have For Happiness as their highest cultural ideal, to the point that they love living in hiding among humans to help them out in ways such as working on shoes while the cobbler sleeps and putting hearts and rupees in the grass. The one exception is Vaati, who was so fascinated by the evil that humans were capable of that he used Ezlo's magic cap to change into a human form and try to Take Over the World. In The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, the Twili are a peaceful race who are content with life in the Twilight Realm. With the exception of Zant, who felt like an insect trapped in a cage, and wanted freedom for him and his people. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword has Batreaux, a friendly demon who wants nothing more than to be friends with people. He eventually gets turned into a human as part of a sidequest. According to Queen Oren in The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, River Zoras are technically allies of the Hylians but are usually very territorial and will attack anyone inside said territory despite her giving them orders NOT to attack Hylians. This also explains the River Zoras' hostility compared to the Zoras of the post-Ocarina of Time console games. The same game features a timid Hinox who will give Link money for leaving him alone. Demand too many Rupees, however, and he'll get angry and attack. There's also a friendly Octorok who will play baseball with you.

While they sometimes allude to other Gems having once been on Earth, for the first half season or so none appear (except as corrupted monsters). In a twist, it's eventually revealed that the larger Gem Empire is deeply cruel and utilitarian. They are obsessed with strength and efficiency, and create individual Gems only to fulfill a certain function in their Fantastic Caste System. The protagonists are actually the remnant of an army that rebelled to save the Earth from being colonized millennia ago, becoming a refuge for "defective" Gems in the process. After this discovery, it seems that the Gems are divided into two factions: the protective Crystal Gems and the cruel Homeworld Gems. However, a trip to the Gem homeworld revealed the presence of the Off-Color gems, Gems who have either been rejected from their society for imperfections or who have chosen to become outcasts because they disagree with the Homeworld philosophy (mostly on the topic of fusion.)

Only 1/3 of the playable races can be played on both the Republic and Empire, with the rest being exclusive to one side. However, if you complete a character's story for one race, you can unlock that race for yourself, regardless of class or allegiance. This can result in Pureblood Sith and Chiss, overwhelmingly Imperial races, becoming light-sided defenders of the Republic, and pro-Republic races like Mirialan and Miraluka becoming some of the most dangerous Sith ever seen. On the other hand, it's entirely possible to play a Pureblood Sith as a Light-Sided individual despite still being a Sith Lord.

There are other dragons capable of kindness and friendship (even if it's couched in terms of Pragmatic Villainy and Worthy Opponents), but none are as truly nice as Julius. Even dragons who go out of their way to avoid killing people are repeatedly gobsmacked by Julius. The sequel series DFZ comes at it from a different direction with Yong, the Great Dragon of Korea. He hates all dragons as lazy, short-sighted idiots who will kill their own family for any advantage. He is not an exception himself, which is why he is the only dragon in Korea. He repeatedly tells his (human) daughter that if she were a dragon he'd have to constantly watch her for betrayal, but because she's human he can love her unconditionally. But again, he's just as greedy as the rest of the dragons, so he has trouble separating "unconditional love" from "treasure I must possess."

Indeed, Lion-O is treated like an outcast for that and also believing in the myths of ancient technology (which turn out to be very real). He also is one of the few Cats who sees how misguided Thunderan society is, valuing pride and power over kindness and mercy towards enemies to prevent a cycle of hatred. The only Cats who really come close to Lion-O's view are Kit, Kat, and Panthro, who are shown to get along with Dogs, another rival race of the Cats, as well as Pumyra after Lion-O does some convincing. While it's not clear if Cheetarah shares this view as well, she does show a willingness to trust in Lion-O's judgment. Tygra, however, sticks to the old ways for the longest time, thanks to his upbringing. Grune may also count since he can work together with the Lizard general Slithe.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_81692f99	comment	Star Trek: The prime example would be the Klingons. They talk a lot — an awful lot — about how they are a Proud Warrior Race, but virtually any actual Klingon you might meet is almost certainly little better than a street thug. The most famous Klingon, Worf, knows this better than anyone, and it really disappoints him, having idealized his species while growing up in the Federation — and particularly because, although he could show his emotions more freely, he is otherwise already there: the ideal moral, honorable, passionate Klingon warrior. This trope is the central premise of the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "A Matter of Honor", in which Riker serves aboard a Klingon ship in an officer exchange program. They don't outright contradict their stereotype, but they're shown in a much more complete and complex light than they had been in Star Trek: The Original Series. In the TNG episode "Suspicions", there's a Klingon scientist who has the double stigma within her society because of her profession and her gender, Klingon society being male-dominated. Also used with one of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's recurring background characters, a Klingon restaurateur of all things who is overweight and loves to serenade his customers with Klingonese folk songs while playing an accordion-like instrument. Not threatening at all. Most of the Klingons we saw before were from at least minor nobility—this is one of the only Klingon commoners we've met. In the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Judgment", we meet a Klingon lawyer who laments that the warrior caste had pretty much taken over and bullied the rest of their civilization into being the one-note Proud Warrior Race Guy stereotype they're associated with. Another good example would be the Ferengi from DS9. As time went on, several of the more ridiculous aspects of their civilization (particularly their treatment of women) were discarded by various characters (particularly Rom and Nog, the latter of whom eschewed a life of business for one in Starfleet). This is most evident in the episode "Profit and Lace" where two Ferengi discuss the emancipation of women, pointing out the extremely obvious fact (even more ridiculous when you consider the Ferengi's "hat" is rampant capitalism) that allowing women to make money allows them to spend money, and opens up all manner of new industries and opportunities for profit (creates more competition, though). It also shows that the Ferengi — or any other culture — will change in their own time and their own way, not by having change forced on them from outside. The TNG episode "Suspicions" had a Ferengi scientist who notes that it's "almost a contradiction in terms" (presumably in that he's part of a scientific community that shares findings with no worry about "profit" — Ferengi tech does seem to be up to par with Federation tech throughout TNG). Quark zig-zags on this trope. He is a Small Name, Big Ego who regularly claims to uphold (and often does) the Ferengi values of avarice and misogyny, yet he frequently runs into pangs of conscience that tell him to do otherwise (like not screwing over his friends for latinum or paying Pel to travel). Although Odo and the Federation frown on what he tries to get away with all the time, he also runs afoul of his Ferengi regulator by getting guilted into charitable, "hu-man"-itarian" and philanthropic activities, or taking "only" a 30% kickback on his employees' tips. In the episode "The Magnificent Ferengi", we meet a Ferengi who finds more pleasure in fighting and hunting than in latinum. Quark and the others find him very strange for this, but they do acknowledge that he's a great warrior. The Changelings in DS9 are fanatically obsessed with order. Having had bad experiences with fearful species, they turned to enslavement, brainwashing, and domination. Odo was abandoned to infiltrate other species and learn their culture before instinctively returning to the homeworld. However, integrating into Bajoran society went horribly well, and instead of wanting to dominate others, he devoted his entire life to justice. When he finally does return to his homeworld, he is shocked to find the rest of his species to be oppressive dictators, and instead stays with his friends to help them defend against being conquered. A strange example occurs in Enterprise. The Vulcans are characterized not only by logic and the silencing of emotion but also by duplicity and paranoia, not unlike Romulans of earlier series. The Syrrannites are a rogue sect who strive towards the ideals of Surak, a legendary Vulcan pathfinder (in that, if Vulcans bothered with religion, he would be their Moses). The Vulcans in that series claimed to follow the teachings of Surak, but had "fallen," so to speak — they forgot what Surak had really stood for. T'Pol says that reading Surak's works was a life-changing experience for her. Enterprise also introduces a group called "V'tosh ka'tur", aka "Vulcans without logic", who reject their species' Emotion Suppression and vegetarianism. They claim that their designation is incorrect, as they believe that expressing emotions doesn't mean rejecting logic. Same Vulcan problem, different series: the "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" episode from DS9, in which Capt. Solok's anti-Sisko crusade, supposedly in the name of logic, bears an odd resemblance to the behavior of a schoolyard bully. As many fans have noted, Solok's resemblance to the Enterprise-era Vulcans is far greater than to the more recent (timeline-speaking) incarnations. The issue with the Vulcans is primarily explained by Fanon and the various novels which assumed that Spock was a typical Vulcan and that his statements of what Vulcans were like is unvarnished truth. In reality, aside from Spock, the Vulcans that were seen in the TOS episode "Amok Time" demonstrated that Vulcans could be entirely duplicitous and exhibit jealousy and resentment as well as casually planning to have someone killed just to get what they wanted. In Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, Valeris was proven capable of deceit and murder, and assorted Vulcans in later shows also demonstrated Vulcans were far from perfect. Spock is, in effect, equivalent to Worf in being a bit of an outsider who lives up to the ideals of what his people should be rather than what they actually are. Another strange example are the El-Aurians, Guinan's people. Their hat is supposed to be that they're great listeners, but Guinan is the only example of this we've seen; the other two El-Aurians we've seen in major roles are Con Man Mazur from the DS9 episode "Rivals", whose ability to listen is an Informed Attribute (it gets mentioned, but he doesn't come across as especially perceptive) and Soran from Star Trek: Generations, who is far too busy being an Omnicidal Maniac. Soran boasts of the El-Aurians' listening skills while practicing Cold-Blooded Torture on Geordi, so he himself may be unclear on the concept. The Cardassians are initially presented as the Planet of Secret Police, but as time goes on, it's eventually revealed that they do have a history of democracy and political diversity to rival humans — they're just stuck in an ongoing cycle of poverty, dictatorship, military overspending... And all of the Cardassians we meet for the first few seasons are from the military, which is coincidentally the only reliable way to get fed. Imagine judging humans if the only country you landed in was North Korea. They end DS9 on another major disaster and it's left unclear whether the cycle will continue. Several episodes of DS9 involve Cardassians who are members of the Dissident Movement, an underground faction that's trying to move their culture away from a military dictatorship and towards democracy and social reform. The TNG episode "Lower Decks" has a Cardassian officer who's turned informant for the Federation. He explains to another character that his choice wasn't because he supports the Federation over Cardassia, but because he knows that another war with the Federation would not be in Cardassia's best interests. He also understands that while the Federation would never start such a war, there are many within his own government who would. Romulans are portrayed as conniving and secretive (the most notorious among them being the Tal Shiar, the Romulan Secret Police), but there are exceptions. In the TNG two-parter "Unification 1 & 2", there's a Romulan underground movement that opposes the Romulan government and supports a peaceful reunification between Romulans and Vulcans. The dissidents are friends and allies of Ambassador Spock. In Star Trek: Picard, the Qowat Milat is an order of warrior nuns who practice the Way of Absolute Candor, meaning that they always speak the truth — all of the truth, whether or not others want to hear it. Elnor, a young man raised by the sisterhood, seems utterly incapable of lying and has trouble recognizing deception in others. They also champion worthy causes, while Romulans at large are not exactly known for their altruism.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_85b855e2	comment	Winter Celchu (originally introduced in The Thrawn Trilogy), a childhood friend of Leia's from famously-disarmed Alderaan, quickly came to favor military action against the Empire. Not to mention that in the EU, Alderaan only disarmed in the prior twenty years or so, making taking up arms once more fairly easy (one story even has it that all their war materials were put on ships that could be called home assuming this was necessary). For a more conventional example, after the Battle of Endor, Twi'leks were tired of being seen as a species of scheming male traders and their female merchandise, and the strong warrior tradition of the species came to greater prominence as the warriors became more vocal. Finally, it's noted that species that tend more strongly to the Planet of Hats (like the Ithorians) stay that way by kicking out troublemakers, so that members of the species encountered out in the galaxy are far more likely to be examples than those on the homeworld.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_86814cd2	comment	A minor example of this occurs in Final Fantasy IX with Vivi's grandfather Quan, who abandoned the swamps inhabited by the Qu race after becoming disenchanted with the traditional gourmand ways. Seeking new ways to taste food, Quan thought of attempting to fish the Mist from the sky and eat it, but eventually realized the importance of imagination and sharing one's experiences and memories after he catches Vivi instead. Teaching Vivi gives Quan a new perspective on life and eating, which he eventually shares with Quina and Quale. Quale, who used to be Quan's student and is now Quina's teacher, was himself fairly upset with Quan's deserting the traditional gourmand ways but seems to come around after Quina starts grasping Quan's teachings. This actually ties in rather beautifully with the driving themes of the game when you think about it. Consider that the main theme of the game is, ostensibly, that "Life is precious not because of how long you live or how important you think you are, but because of how you choose to live it and what you do with the time you have". Quan's rejection of the shallow ways of most of his people - which basically consist of simply eating, and cooking for one's own self - enabled him to learn something deeper, giving him a unique individual strength and character which he shared with Vivi and later shared with Quina and Quale. Quina himself/herself is seen giving the same lesson to the Qu working in Alexandria's royal kitchens during the Epilogue.

Surprisingly, Bowser himself is perfectly okay with several of his Mooks defecting and staying there. The Paper Mario series further expands on this trope by introducing whole communities of Goombas, Koopas, etc. that are a part of and allied with the Mushroom Kingdom instead of Bowser. A handful of these monsters team up with Mario in each of the first two games and end up fighting members of their own species. Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition, naturally, uses the base mechanics of the series in question, so it allows the player to recruit normally antagonistic characters like Koopas or Cheep Cheeps to fight on their side.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls In the backstory, the Ayleids (Wild Elves) of Cyrodiil split off from their Altmer (High Elf) cousins when the Aedra-worshiping Altmer banned worship of the Daedra. Unlike some other groups, such as the Chimer/Dunmer, the Ayleids worshiped some of the more traditionally malevolent Daedra, leading their civilization down some very dark paths. Some of the Ayleids refused to worship the Daedra, instead worshiping the Aedra, and these two sides eventually went to war. The Daedra-worshiping Ayleids were victorious, and the Aedra-worshiping Ayleids were forced to flee Cyrodiil. (The most famous of these groups were the Barsaebic Ayleids, who settled in Black Marsh.) One of the dark paths the Daedra-worshiping Ayleids went down was the enslavement and vile torture of the Nedes, human ancestors to most of the modern races of Men. Some of the Ayleids were disgusted by the treatment of the slaves by their brethren and joined the slaves when they revolted. As a result, they were allowed to keep their lands as vassals of the newly-formed human Cyrodiilic Empire. (At least until, about a century later, the empire picked up an extremely anti-elven religion sect which killed or drove out the remaining Ayleids, leading to their extinction as a unique race.) The Dwemer provide a few examples in the backstory as well: The Rourken clan of Dwemer was so opposed to an alliance with the Chimer that they chose to self-exile themselves to Hammerfell. Their chieftain is said to have thrown the Volendrung Hammer across Tamriel and led his clan to "wherever the hammer fell", giving the region its name. In the final days of their known existence, it's said that many Dwemer didn't agree with the general idea to unmake themselves and then reforge themselves into immortal godlike beings. Not because it was blasphemous or anything like that, just because they thought it would end poorly for every Dwemer on Nirn. Which it probably did. After the events of Oblivion, Ocato, who served as the High Chancellor and Imperial Battlemage to Emperor Uriel Septim VII, was made Potentate of the Empire with no surviving Septim heirs left. Despite being an Altmer, Ocato utterly opposed the Aldmeri Dominion to the point where the Thalmor had him killed for his efforts, leading into the Empire's steep decline by the time of Skyrim while the power of the Dominion rose. Skyrim Paarthurnax, the leader of the Greybeards. During the Dragon Wars, he was the top lieutenant of Alduin, but had a change of heart and instead chose to aid the Ancient Nords, teaching them the Thu'um and thus allowing them to turn the tide against the Dragons. Despite being the closest thing in the game to a Big Good, he tells the Dragonborn that he still has the innate desire to destroy and dominate as all Dragons do and has to constantly fight to keep his urges in check. He lampshades that the same is true for the Dragonborn as well. In Skyrim you can meet several Altmer who openly despise the Thalmor, the despotic State Sec ruling the re-formed Aldmeri Dominion. The Thalmor essentially play up the worst stereotypes of the Altmer overall. One is a Legate in the Imperial Legion who will readily tell you a story about dissident Altmer refugees being ambushed and slaughtered by Thalmor operatives. Another is a shopkeeper in Windhelm who offers to use her black market contacts to help smuggle the local priest and priestess of Talos out of the city should the Thalmor ever come by. Unsurprisingly, the Thalmor consider any Altmer who do not support them to not be "true" Altmer. One group that gets hit hard with this by the Thalmor are the Psijic Order, a powerful Magical Society and the oldest monastic order in Tamriel. The Order and the Thalmor have an extreme mutual hatred for one another. The second disappearance of Artaeum (the island home of the Psijics) in the 4th Era is believed to be directly related to the rise of Thalmor influence. The Thalmor come off as The Resenter, as the Order is an Aldmeri organization with immense magical knowledge but one that absolutely will not tow the Thalmor line or share that knowledge. And naturally, any Altmer Dragonborn who sides with the Empire or even the Stormcloaks to give the Thalmor the boot will be an example by default. Reversed in one case with Gissur, a Nord beggar who acts as a Thalmor stool pigeon, selling information to them in exchange for coin. He thinks his fellow Nords complain too much about the Thalmor and is clearly an individual not meant to be liked or sympathized with, and would likely qualify as Too Dumb to Live as the Thalmor's hostility towards all humans is established fact. Gissur will usually meet his end at the hands of the Dragonborn during the main story, usually being killed in an attempted ambush along with his Thalmor masters. Also in Skyrim, the Nords are portrayed as being mistrustful of magic at best, then you meet a few Nord mages who go against the general Nordic rejection of magic. This appears to be a societal thing, as when you go to Sovngarde, the Nordic afterlife, the gatekeeper Tsun says that modern Nords "have forgotten their forefathers' respect for the Clever Craft." Faryl Atheron, a Dunmer in Windhelm, works at a Nord farm and complains of his fellow Dunmers' "harping about injustices." Orcs have a reputation of being warriors, and you can meet some old ones while traveling who wish to challenge you to combat so they can die a good death in battle. However, the librarian of the College of Winterhold is an orc who takes his job quite seriously. The Gourmet, the most famous chef in Skyrim, turns out to be an Orc — and he's distinctly not a warrior, begging for his life if you come to assassinate him and going down in a single attack. Some Reachmen, such as Ainethach (the owner of the mines of Karthwasten) and Bothela (the owner of the Hag's Cure alchemy shop), lament that so many of their friends and relatives are dying over what they deem a "lost cause" as members of the Forsworn. Non-Forsworn Reachmen are constantly accused by the Forsworn and the Nords of supporting the opposing side, leaving them stuck in the middle. In the Dawnguard DLC, you can meet Knight-Paladin Gelebor, the last surviving uncorrupted Falmer. He prefers to be called a "Snow Elf" to avoid the negative connotations of the debased Falmer, who he refers to as "the Betrayed." He pities them, but also believes that their current situation is at least partly of their own making, averting the Freudian Excuse most give the Falmer.

Except for Sparda, who turned against his own kind to save the Human race, married a Human woman, who then gave birth to his twin children. One of whom, Dante, became the main protagonist of the series. His brother Vergilâ€¦ kinda the opposite happened with him. The animated series features a demon that Dante has been contracted to kill who has fallen in love with a human. When Dante encounters him in the alley, he asks Dante about his parent's relationship to validate the possibility of love in a demon.

He was derided by the rest of his species for being an "Independent Thinker". Going by the pilot episode, there's at least a cultural basis for this derision; when the Uni-Mind (which enables the LGMs' Hive Mind) gets stolen (and thus no longer unites the minds of the LGMs), the LGMs turn into utter morons; apparently, only a few individuals actually specifically know any given thing, and the others know it by being connected to the ones that do. On top of that, they're completely uncoordinated without the Uni-Mind's "my best friend is also my right arm" factor.

In the Mirrodin block, we're introduced to Slobad, a goblin who was outcast from his tribe for being too smart. The Phyrexians, insane and evil machine demons, have Xantcha, who served as the sidekick to the Big Good, who was himself very much anti-Phyrexian. Strictly speaking, however, Xantcha was genetically engineered to resemble a human and didn't even know she was really a Phyrexian. New Phyrexia has a straighter example in Urabrask the Hidden, the Praetor of Red mana. As a result of belonging to the colour of individuality, freedom, and emotion, he's marginally nicer than the other Praetors (he favours "non-interference" over You Will Be Assimilated or Final Solution on the matter of the Mirran survivors).

Loki is, on the other hand, a Magnificent Bastard, a powerful sorcerer, and is usually shown as slightly shorter than Thor (the horns on his helmet notwithstanding) and pretty darn skinny. While he is still very strong and durable, that is primarily in comparison to Earth Superheroes/villains, not Asgardians and other Frost Giants. Notably, Frost Giants are an Always Chaotic Evil race, typically existing to be antagonists to the Asgardians. Loki plays this straight 9 times out of 10 (the other times can be excused as Enemy Mine situations).

Not only you can choose a Minotaur as your starting race this time, but there is an entire friendly city of them (which was flooded by tidal wave at the beginning of the game), unlike in any other game. Even more, they are one of the required members of an alliance you have to form against the cataclysm that is happening, and their leader will agree to help you if you can save their city. Same deal with Trolls. They are also usually the enemies, including in this game, but here they too have created city and you can help them find their original settlement. Vampires you can recruit also count, as they will stay your allies regardless if you choose the Necromancers for the alliance. Unlike any other game and place in the series, where they are usually high-end enemies, the dragons in Garrotte Gorge are friendly to you (and you can even recruit some) unless you do something to piss them off.

Every so often, however, a Jaghut would succumb to the lure of power and become a Jaghut Tyrant; being effectively immortal and immensely powerful mages, they would set themselves up as God Emperors among other races. Notable Tyrants include Raest and the Pannion Seer. Though very few Jaghut became Tyrants, the threat of them was considered so great that another ancient race, the T'lan Imass, dedicated their lives (and undeath) to exterminating the Jaghut just to be on the safe side.

Daelan Red Tiger is a Half-Orc Barbarian who is not a psychopathic thug (even though he's Chaotic Good and obsessed with honor), Grimnaw is a Dwarf who has neither a battleaxe nor a beard, Linu Lanaeril is a clumsy Elf, Haedraline is an Old One who does not support Queen Morag's resurrection, and the Player Character can be just about anything you want, from an Intellectual Half-Orc to an Elven Barbarian. The Shadows of Undrentide expansion features Xanos and Dorna as your companions. Xanos is an intellectual Half-Orc Sorcerer, whereas Dorna is a Dwarven Thief, and she has little interest in Dwarven culture. The Hordes of the Underdark expansion keeps up the trend. Deekin the Kobold bard is apparently the only literate and adventurous member of his species; Nathyrra is another Good drow; and Aribeth is a Paladin who is not utterly prudish and takes several opportunities to flirt with the PC. Nathyrra is both the proof of and the exception to the Trope. Although she is a Good member of an Always Chaotic Evil, she is also one of the followers of Eilistraee, a Good Goddess forbidden to be worshipped by most drow but still manages to garner a reasonably sized following, a good deal of whom are met in the game as NPC's. She does have an evil alignment, but this seems to be just a way to give her the Assassin specialisation. In the vanilla campaign, you can find an intellectual orc who serves as an advisor to a fire giant leader. He gets offended if you comment that he's "quite well-spoken for an elf".

He and the forces under him broke away from the Tau Empire and formed their own faction, the Farsight Enclave, because they refused to go along with the Brainwashing for the Greater Good that the Ethereal caste are implied to practice. Orks have a variation: while their basic strategy is to run towards the enemy firing guns and screaming Waaagh! (they're tough enough and numerous enough for this to work), the Blood Axes clan has been known to use highly suspicious tactics such as retreats and camouflage. Such distinctly un-orky behavior would be grounds for immediate execution, except that the Blood Axes tend to produce very successful warbosses. Ork Kommandoes have a similar situation, although in their case it's less foregoing their species' genetic goal (run towards the enemy etc.) and sneaking up to the enemy and planting bombs before revealing themselves and shooting/blowing the place up. The Ork gods, Gork and Mork, embody brutal cunning (hit you really hard when you're looking) and cunning brutality (hits you hard when you're not looking). The Blood Axes and the Ork Kommandoes are simply Orks who follow Mork's example over Gork's. The most successful warbosses are those who are brutally cunning and cunningly brutal.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_bfb483af	comment	In the Splatoon series, almost all the Octolings the player will encounter during the single-player campaigns are antagonists. Justified in that you're fighting the opposing forces of an army. The sequel introduced both Marina, a friendly and rather adorkable Octoling who forms half of the rapper-and-DJ duo "Off the Hook", as well as a new Octoling protagonist for its Octo Expansion DLC campaign named Agent 8. Both characters do happen to be defectors from the Octarian Army, with enlisting into the military by one's teenage years implied to just be how their society works. The DLC also allows the player to use the Octoling avatar online, with other players' use of them being justified in-game as other random Octolings said to have found their way to the surface in a less Cyberpunk manner than you. By the events of Splatoon 3, Octolings co-existing with Inklings has become even more common in-universe, and you can freely choose your race at the start of the game.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_c21df7ae	comment	The End Times: Vermintide and Vermintide II take place in the world of Warhammer, and consist of a Ragtag Bunch of Misfits that includes Dwarf Ranger Bardin Goreksson. The Dwarfs of Warhammer are notorious for being a grumpy, insular lot who view grudges and the settling thereof as sacrament. Bardin, to put it simply, is... none of those things. Instead, he's a remarkably cheerful sort, who openly peppers his dialogue with Khazalid around the others, and even only occasionally gets angry at insults (most often directed at him by Kerillian), which even then, he tends to let slide. Sometimes, he'll even ponder setting aside grudges of old to stand against the End Times, a statement that would probably get him killed by other Dwarfs or even the Dwarfen gods. In short, he's far less of a downer than a Dwarf would otherwise be, and is more the life of the party.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_c4282b71	comment	In the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "Dragon Quest", Spike has an identity crisis and joins the Great Dragon Migration to learn more about what it means to be a dragon. After a few rough spots, he starts to bond with a bunch of unruly teenage dragons and seriously considers staying with them to learn more about being a dragon. Spike changes his mind when they try to goad him into smashing a defenseless phoenix egg. Spike decides that he's fine with being a pony at heart if being a "real" dragon means being a Jerkass. Other episodes flip this however and imply that the teenage dragons were this with respect to "real" dragons, as other dragons are consistently shown to simply be loners who simply don't care about other creatures either way and simply wish to be left alone with their hoards. The dragon from Dragonshy is aloof but not intentionally causing problems for the ponies, is civil until Rarity tries to steal his hoard, only turns violent when Rainbow Dash kicks him in the face for no good reason, and is ultimately willing to listen to reason. The dragon from Owl's Well That Ends Well is much more aggressive and prone to Disproportionate Retribution, but only turns violent because Spike helped himself to his gems and otherwise seemed content to keep to himself. Gauntlet of Fire shows that most dragons are loners with the only one who's truly villainous being one of the ones from Dragon Quest. The two other dragons that become recurring characters end up being a Reasonable Authority Figure and Tsundere Jerk with a Heart of Gold. Finally, the villainous dragon from Dragon Quest is ultimately revealed to have Hidden Depths. There was also the dragon (or Sea Serpent) that the group met during the second episode. His mad thrashings were creating severe turbulence in a river they had to cross. The ponies expect some insane beast, but it turns out he's just a particularly fabulous dragon that is having a breakdown because his mustache was ruined. An on-the-spot fix made him so happy he actually helped the ponies across the river. In a Story Within a Story, ancient Pegasi are presented as a culture of Proud Warhorse Breed Ponies in the Hearth's Warming Eve pageant we see. However, Private Pansy, their second-in-command, is played by Fluttershy and basically has her personality, neither proud nor warlike. Fluttershy can be seen as one of these as well, as her special talents (good with animals / nature) are usually the domain of Earth Ponies, and frequently seems to forget that as a Pegasus, she can fly. Though we don't really know the circumstances about it, an undisguised changeling is invited to the wedding in "Slice of Life". They must be exceptionally trustworthy though given their species' reputation at such events. note According to M.A. Larson, his name's Kevin and he's a friend of Matilda. Another changeling named Thorax, who just wants to have friends, is the focus of "The Times They Are A-Changeling". Hanging around the other ponies starts to cause him to transform, which pays off in the season finale, "To Where and Back Again", where it's revealed that Changelings are actually starving with the way they live under Queen Chrysalis, who has been lying to them in order to "keep their hat on", so to speak. When Thorax comprehends what Changelings actually need as a society (to release love and not feed on it), it sparks a Heelâ€“Race Turn and ousts the Queen. Gabby the griffon is this to the whole of Griffinstone because she is energetic, friendly, and helpful instead of rude, greedy, and apathetic.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: The Cybermen are all emotionless, computer-controlled slaves... except for the one in "Doomsday", who manages to break her programming and stop the other Cybermen. She was already like a robot before she was Cybermanized though, so they might have just skipped a couple steps in her "upgrade". And then from Torchwood there's Lisa, who, well... tries. She does try. Also Kroton. The Cult of Skaro has produced two of these. They are a select group of Daleks who exist to "imagine", to find new ways to assure that the Dalek race remains supreme. As such they have far more individuality than most Daleks, even their own names. First Dalek Sec merged himself with a human, and found that (even though the human in question was a bit of a bastard), he now feels empathy and knows that the Daleks are flawed. He intends to make them even more human than he has become, but is killed before doing so. Dalek Caan, on the other hand, is a pure Dalek who is driven mad (and given the gift of prophecy) when he flies unprotected through the time vortex. He sees the Daleks for what they are by observing their actions throughout time and space, and arranges for the (almost) destruction of the entire species to prevent them from destroying the universe. The Doctor could be seen as one of these, as well. The Time Lords were described as being bureaucratic, self-important, deriding of all other species, and hesitant to interfere with the nature of time and accidentally cause a paradox. So, the Doctor decided to go nick a TARDIS and explore the universe, later deciding to use their powers to help people. In "The Ultimate Foe", the Sixth Doctor goes on a tirade against the rest of the Time Lords, claiming that in order to fight real evil, rather than exploring the rest of the universe he should have stayed on Gallifrey and opposed the corruption that had become so prevalent among them. It got to the point that the Eighth Doctor was prepared to commit Genocide from the Inside to protect the rest of the universe. The villain of the Doctor Who New Adventures novel Return of the Living Dad turns out to be from the same race as the jovial Time Tourists of the Navarino 1950s Club in "Delta and the Bannermen". His motivation is largely that he's fed up with belonging to a species that nobody takes seriously; the Navarinos are seen as so harmless that the Time Lords never even bothered to stop them having time travel. Inverted with the Slitheen. At first, the characters just assume the Slitheen are an invading evil alien race — then the aliens explain that "Slitheen" is not their race, it's their surname, and that they're merely a single, renegade crime family, comparable to The Mafia. Their goal is to reduce the Earth to slag by triggering World War III and then sell the remains as fuel. As far as anyone knows, the other Raxacoricofallapatorians are perfectly nice and normal — in fact, any Slitheen who returns to their planet faces execution. In an early script for "The Stolen Earth", the Shadow Proclamation was supposed to have members belonging to races who'd previously tried to invade Earth but they were cut for budget reasons. It's unspecified if they were rare good members of villainous races or if it's a Slitheen scenario where the invaders were criminal members of benevolent species.

The ending level after defeating Ripto is Dragon Shores, which is manned by several friendly and cheery Gnorcs. Gnorcs, for those that weren't aware while playing it, were the enemies in the prequel to Gateway to Glimmer, the first game in the series. This example is not only subtle but indecisive; the Gnorcs in the first game were all created from gems. Does this mean that the Dragon Shore Gnorcs are the rogues to the overall horrible Gnorc race, or is Gnasty the rogue to the overall amiable Gnorc race?

The near-extinct Nathauan race is known for their cruelty, rampant destruction, and penchant for eating any sentient race (including their own). Valeriana, one of the protagonists, is from said race...she can't be as bad as all that, right? Wrong. When she arrives and her power is questioned, she looses a fireball as a demonstration, with total disregard for anyone or anything in the way. She then treats the party as if she's an Evil Overlord and they her subjects, and after her weakness is exposed she only agrees to rein in her more extreme impulses because the fate of the world is slightly more important...and only because saving the world means there will still be a world to terrorize six months later. That said, it's shown that her kind were capable of love. At most, she's willing to admit her companions are useful and tolerable (plus agreeing that a fallen thief was brave), but cheerfully warns them at the end she may "have you for dinner" if they seek her out in the future.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_cf69b21e	comment	Dinobot seems obsessed with the idea of Predacon honor in Beast Wars...but he's also the only honorable Predacon in the entire series and he pulls a Heelâ€“Face Turn in the first episode. Everyone else is some combination of cowardly, treacherous, power-hungry, or loyal to the point of idiocy. Though we're only seeing a handful of Predacons to begin with. He's still pretty treacherous and power-hungry, though, not to mention a bloodthirsty cannibal who only defected to the good guys' team because his bid to take over the bad guys failed. He just believes 'the strongest should rule' in a literal sense. Sure, Dinobot believes in a fair fight, but he's a nasty piece of work right up till the end. Basically, Dinobot is an "orthodox" Predacon whose view of the others in that particular group range from "lazy" to "incompetent" to "threat to the species." Entering a full-time Enemy Mine scenario with the Maximals not only makes sense to surviving crashing on ancient Earth, but to make sure this bumbling assortment of scrap he got there with don't win. He says it the best when the Maximals have the chance to return to Cybertron and he opts not to go with them: In All There in the Manual, it explains that Predacons value treachery. An underling can challenge a leader for any grievance in the court of Might Makes Right. A good leader can fight off the challenge to his authority and a bad one is a victim to it. In the first episode, Dinobot does this, but Megatron sidesteps by having a flunky take care of Dinobot, which means Megatron was not honorable in combat. Dinobot later challenges Optimus and, while he does lose, Optimus won't let Dinobot die because of circumstances unrelated to their combat, endearing him. It's telling that while Dinobot's Honor does force him back to Megatron's side when Megatron is proven correct, he never directly betrays Optimus Primal, even if the pair have several heated disagreements. It's not so much that Dinobot is this trope, but rather, the rest of the Predacons are this trope to Dinobot. Perhaps worse.

(Turn on my friends? Sure, if it's in my long-term interest. Not turn on my friends? Sure, if I think it'll be useful for me to keep on their good side. Sacrifice my life to save the universe? Sure, if it makes me posthumously famous and gets my kids all kinds of breaks in life.) Interestingly, Gaheris Rhade, a Nietzschean in the series, was quite depressed at what a race of self-absorbed bastards his species turned out to be. In his own words, "Our people were meant to be living gods, warrior-poets who roamed the stars bringing civilization, not cowards and bullies who prey on the weak and kill each other for sport." Rev Bem was a pacifist "Wayist" priest despite being a Magog, a species who are largely a nightmare-inducing plague on the galaxy and reproduce parasitically. Apparently the syncretic Wayist religion was actually founded by another of his race, who had a Heelâ€“Face Turn after hearing about various faiths from the dying human he had parasitized, and it's now a fairly popular belief system in the Local Group, but very few of its current members are Magog.

So, semi-subverted? Religion is a major element in the series, with the Cylons characterized by their faith in the One True God, while the Colonials worship the Lords of Kobol (basically the Greek gods). However, Adama (the military leader of the Colonials) and Cavil (arguably the Cylon leader) are both atheists. Similarly, the Sagittaron "hat" is a more fundamentalist form of Colonial religion (which also involves a rejection of modern medicine), but Dee, the most prominent Sagittaron character on the show, doesn't wear the hat.

It's still shown to be weak against water during a battle though. A reference to how it can learn "Surf" in the games. Dragonite are portrayed as noble, wise, and peaceful PokÃ©mon despite being extremely powerful and really dangerous when angered. Iris' Dragonite, however, is extremely violent and loves to get into fights with strong opponents, though he's easily angered if he finds himself on the losing end.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_dab94d47	comment	The Promise (2016): Many of the Turks are shown to not all be on board with the Armenian genocide and do what they can to stop it. Three notable examples include: Mustafa, a driver who helps escort the orphans out to Musa Dagh and stays with the Armenians. A deputy governor appearing before the American Protestant Mission in Turkey, risking his life to inform them that an evacuation must start. Emre: the son of a Turkish aristocrat who betrays his father and government to report on Chris being imprisoned and nearly executed to Henry Morgenthau, the American ambassador to the Ottomans. This gets Emre shot for treason, but his actions allow Chris to inform the French navy that a large number of Armenians are trapped and need aid.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_dcdb5ca9	comment	Tsukihime clearly established that once you've been bitten by a vampire, there's no turning back, you're boned, and the guy who bit you will now be a horrible bloodsucking monster. See: Satsuki, Arcueid. Six months of story time later, we have Melty Blood where Sion was bitten three years ago and is still almost entirely normal. In at least one route she even actually turns into a vampire after biting Wallachia but after getting beaten up for a bit she decides it's not really that much worse than it was before and she can still resist drinking blood and viewing people as lunch. She then leaves and goes back to work. Wait, what? Justified Trope: Satsuki is actually pretty normal, as long as she is not under Roa's direct influence. Furthermore, Wallachia isn't a true vampire and didn't have a physical form. Thus, it allowed Sion, who is also a powerful mage, to take great lengths to prevent herself from turning fully. Furthermore, note that Shiki himself managed to resist possession by Roa for a long period, and Sion was not 'drained/revived' like Satsuki was. In Short, there's a TON of circumstances that explain Sion's issues. (Note also that Satsuki regains most of her normal personality when she's playable.)

Where most elves are polite, reserved, and evasive, she's somewhat crude, loud, and honest. In a series with Elves vs. Dwarves in effect, she and Orik get along very well. In the third book, she states that she hates what the elves have become, comparing them to statues in how much emotion they show.

All vampires are evil except for him because his hat completely fell off when he got his soul back. Potentially even more so the case with Spike, who although he joined the good fight much later, also freely chose it while soulless—unlike Angel, whose soul was forced upon him. While the series and comics will later introduce more soulless vampires with redeeming traits and who don't mind doing good if it's convenient for them, Spike seems to be the first and only to go as far as to retrieve his soul himself and firmly choose the side of good completely of his own volition. Lorne, aka the Host, born in a demon dimension where humans are cattle, everyone is a deathly serious Proud Warrior Race Guy, and there is no music (only dancing!). Lorne, on the other hand, hates fighting, loves humans, and has the power to read people's souls when they sing karaoke.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_e6267766	comment	Star Wars Legends tended to treat the Planet of Hats trope as being along the lines of National Stereotypes, which varied from being enthusiastically accepted by people from a given world or species to widely condemned. Winter Celchu (originally introduced in The Thrawn Trilogy), a childhood friend of Leia's from famously-disarmed Alderaan, quickly came to favor military action against the Empire. Not to mention that in the EU, Alderaan only disarmed in the prior twenty years or so, making taking up arms once more fairly easy (one story even has it that all their war materials were put on ships that could be called home assuming this was necessary). For a more conventional example, after the Battle of Endor, Twi'leks were tired of being seen as a species of scheming male traders and their female merchandise, and the strong warrior tradition of the species came to greater prominence as the warriors became more vocal. Finally, it's noted that species that tend more strongly to the Planet of Hats (like the Ithorians) stay that way by kicking out troublemakers, so that members of the species encountered out in the galaxy are far more likely to be examples than those on the homeworld. Voort SaBingring, a Gamorrean officer of Wraith Squadron, certainly does not enjoy his (though he is forced to admit that the reason he escapes his species' hat is due to being biochemically altered). Nat Secura is similarly shown to be distasteful of the attitude taken towards Twi'leks, as is Nolaa Tarkonaa (though she fits the scheming stereotype to a T). Blotus the Hutt subverted the "Ruthless Gangster" stereotype of the Hutts, by having served 275 years as the Chancellor of the Republic, and is considered one of the most well-liked chancellors in its history. Then again, this was 9000 years before the movies. Hell, there was even a Hutt Jedi once, though he fell to the Dark Side, so that's kind of iffy. During the New Jedi Order series, this was half of the point of the Edge of Victory duology - a chance to see a Yuuzhan Vong that wasn't a lunatic warrior. The books introduced Vua Rapuung (an embittered and vengeful but honorable ex-warrior who'd been burned by a love affair gone sour), Nen Yim (a Punch-Clock Villain with enough redeeming traits she probably would have been an outright heroine had she not been raised in a culture that had no problem with using sentient beings as lab rats) and fleshed out the Shamed Ones, the Vong's oppressed slave caste who didn't give a damn about their superiors' genocidal ambitions. Before that, we had Nom Anor, who was every bit as evil as his colleagues, but evil of a completely different flavor- he was a self-serving, cowardly Manipulative Bastard in contrast to their violent fanaticism. The X-Wing Series invokes this more than once when it comes to Twi'leks. When Rogue Squadron visits Ryloth on a diplomatic mission, they meet with representatives of both the merchant and warrior castes. The latter laments the fact that Twi'leks are viewed as traders at best and slaves or criminals at worst, and accuses the former of playing into galactic stereotypes. Later, when a Twi'lek member of Rogue Squadron meets a fellow Twi'lek fighter pilot who had been a slave, she rebuffs his attempts at polite conversation, saying they had nothing in common. A key aspect of Chiss culture is their aversion to preemptive strikes. Grand Admiral Thrawn, arguably the most well-known Chiss, is a strong, outspoken advocate of this military strategy. Suffice it to say, he is exiled by his people. In later books, particularly Survivor's Quest, Thrawn's former disapproving superior Formbi seems to have come around to this perspective, as well. Introduced during the Legacy of the Force novels, Darth Vectivus is one of the very few if not the only Sith in the entirety of Star Wars history who was not a completely insane conquering despot. An effective if ruthless businessman, he simply goes to the Sith, learns what they have to teach, works his way up to Sith Lord, and then goes right back to his old life without a hitch.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_f38f5664	comment	The Lion Guard has a good hyena in the first episode. She is a subversion, though, because according to her most hyenas are good like her. Apparently, all the evil ones seen so far in the franchise are the ones that are behaving abnormally for their species.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_f5c28dbb	comment	A variant occurs in the 1632 novels. The Hapsburg family are easily the most solid antagonists of the series, most opposed to the changes brought by the Ring of Fire. They are also known for being generally ignorant - perhaps alone among European rulers, King Philip IV of Spain makes little attempt to replicate up-time technologies. His brother Fernando, on the other hand, who was essentially the Spanish viceroy in the Low Countries, decides to crown himself King of the Spanish Lowlands, creating the Dutch Hapsburgs as a third branch of the family. He also arranges an unofficial peace with the USE. While he remains nominally a vassal of his elder brother, the Spanish Lowlands are effectively neutral, and he is working to the point that he will be able to openly oppose the Spanish Hapsburgs (and the Austrians, although they will probably be busy dealing with the imminent Ottoman invasion).

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_f6c16bab	comment	The Saga of Darren Shan has Kurda, the one pacifist in a mountain full of Proud Warrior Race Guy vampires, is an interesting example. When the main character first meets him, we find out that he is soon to become a Vampire Prince, and that 54% of the Vampire Generals voted for him even though his beliefs go against the clan's traditional ways. As Darren tries to find his way as a vampire, Kurda provides a counterweight to the other vampires, who push Darren, a physically-immature half-vampire, into dangerous situations that could get him killed (and force him to undergo dangerous trials where failure would get him executed even if he survives). Kurda is the one who tells Darren that he shouldn't judge himself by the values of others, but that he should follow his heart. Then in book 5, Darren sees Kurda stab a friend of theirs, and lead members of an enemy clan into Vampire Mountain. It looks bad, and Darren does the only thing he can think of — he exposes Kurda's treason before his investiture as a Prince. The vampires slaughter the enemy invaders — but at Kurda's trial, it is revealed that those they slaughtered weren't attackers at all. They were trying to make peace between the two clans before the rise of the other clan's prophesied leader, who will start a war that will destroy them all. Nonetheless, Kurda is executed for his deeds. As the war drags on, more and more of those involved come to realize that Kurda was right, and in the end after he dies, Darren wishes he'd been more like Kurda. On top of that, the prequels show that Kurda was one of the only vampires who tried to help the human victims during World War II, while the other vampires essentially turned up their noses at a "lesser" species.

My Species Doth Protest Too Much / int_f74b5f80	comment	Much time in Babylon 5 was spent showcasing how all the seemingly hat-like races are really individuals. A good example would be Vir, a Centauri who is eager for social reform and uninterested in status or advancement in society while being genuinely interested in exchanging cultural ideas with other aliens. He ultimately becomes Emperor, and leads the Centauri Republic into being a valued equal member of the alliance. The Centauri courtesan slave Adira points out that not all Centauri engage in digging up dirt on others to gain leverage on friend and foe alike. Trakis, her master, a Golian who was once a slave of the Centauri himself and clearly takes sadistic pleasure in being able to legally own one, points out that such people tend to be at the lower rungs of Centauri society like her.note Londo eventually sees the error of the Centauri way, and engineers his own death to ensure that Vir gets the throne. This trope apparently also applies to Kosh. It's mostly his words and actions that make the Vorlons appear as benevolent though enigmatic Starfish Aliens. It later turns out that even though they appear to less advanced races in the form of "angels", they are not the forces of Good to oppose the Shadows' forces of Evil. Instead they are really just using the younger races to prove that their ideology of Order is superior to the Shadows' ideology of Chaos, while not having any actual interest in the well-being of lesser creatures. Kosh is the noticeable exception, as he constantly watches over people whom he believes to be important for the younger races to liberate themselves from the old ones, going so far as opposing his own government and sacrificing his life. Lyta comments after having Ulkesh in her head that she felt that unlike him, Kosh actually cared for the younger races. Word of God is that Ulkesh was a better example of your typical (if such a word can be applied to them) Vorlon. Kosh was very much an outsider in his views on the younger races. Which makes sense. If the Vorlons take no interest in the affairs of others, as Kosh pointed out early in the series, what sort of Vorlon would become an Ambassador?

His motivation is largely that he's fed up with belonging to a species that nobody takes seriously; the Navarinos are seen as so harmless that the Time Lords never even bothered to stop them having time travel.

Ultimately, he takes advantage of the Alien Invasion to put himself in charge of whatever comes afterward since most of the species (including the violent ones) were wiped out.

They don't outright contradict their stereotype, but they're shown in a much more complete and complex light than they had been in Star Trek: The Original Series.
