Non-Malicious Monster	comment	One step below a typical Anti-Villain (or above, depending on how you're counting): a creature that could be called monstrous, but can't actually be viewed as evil, since it lacks any actual malice or sapience. This is not to say that these monsters are not a threat; they're usually literal monsters, and if they're not dealt with, many people will die. It's just that, in theory, options besides killing the monster exist; unfortunately, it's more likely than not these solutions will either take too long (thus incurring massive Collateral Damage) or just not be realistically feasible in the setting. A common choice for this kind of monster is some kind of Dire Beast, usually a mammal since Reptiles Are Abhorrent and thus less likely to elicit compassion from the audience, but Mutants and prehistoric relics are also popular. If you need your hero to make some morally controversial choices that are still justified, one of these is the option du jour. When/if they go down, expect much Sympathy for the Devil on the part of those responsible, and maybe a tear or two from you as well. Most Non-Malicious monsters fall somewhere near True Neutral in alignment. Note the main difference between a Reluctant Monster and a Non-Malicious Monster is that the Non-Malicious Monster is always an antagonist; the Reluctant Monster can be a protagonist. In addition, the Reluctant Monster is usually sapient or can sense people's responses to its monstrosity (see, e.g., Casper the Friendly Ghost). The Non-Malicious Monster is more along the lines of a completely instinctive beast with no sapience; in other words, it's just reacting to stimulus in incredibly dangerous ways without bearing malice towards anyone. Imagine a 100 foot tall Rottweiler if you will- he may just be looking for a chew toy, but when the closest thing he can find is a VW Beetle, he's crossed over from Big Friendly Dog into this territory. If Fido does have any sapience, it's a case of being Obliviously Evil. If being 100 feet tall is causing him terrible pain and making him pissed, that's Tortured Monster. Certain portrayals of Eldritch Abominations go out of their way to portray the Abominations as, well, dangerous only because we're in the way. Remember the last time you cared about the bugs you step on when walking in your yard? Sometimes compared to a more normal villainous character, frequently a Complete Monster or Corrupt Corporate Executive, to make the distinction between "monster" and "evil" more explicit and obvious (although authors using this particular variation should be warned that said normal bad guy is especially prone to becoming a Designated Villain). Expect early victims to be Assholes for the usual reasons: we don't feel as bad about a giant dick being killed, and it doesn't hurt any sympathy we may have with the monster. For the purposes of Stock Monster Symbolism, a Non-Malicious Monster usually is used to further a "nature vs. civilization" theme, or more rarely a "disaster (man-made or otherwise)" theme. Compare Not Evil, Just Misunderstood and Predation Is Natural. See also Monster Is a Mommy, a Sub-Trope of when the monster in question is fully justified or even doing objective good in its monstrous actions, Why Isn't It Attacking? when the non-malicious behavior is noticed, and Benevolent Monsters, which is when a monster is actively kindhearted instead of just neutral.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_100d4e39	comment	Aladdin: The Series: One episode has a monster that eats magic and almost devours Genie and Carpet, but he's just like any animal who has to eat to survive. There was also a sand shark with the treasure of a thousand sultans' vaults stuck to its underbelly. It was a shark but didn't go out of its way to hunt down humans. It just happened to come across humans every now and then and thought "Oh hey, food!" Later on, said shark was killed and eaten by a group of small humanoid creatures. While fearsome hunters, it turned out that they weren't evil themselves, just the slaves for a powerful evil wizard. Once the wizard was defeated, and a new leader stepped forward, they became a lot nicer.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_1133352a	comment	Zigzagged in the Terminator franchise. Most Terminators, despite their calculating and merciless nature, aren't malicious or sadistic. They're machines designed and programmed to carry out specific tasks in the most efficient manner possible and are no more likely to inflict unnecessary pain and suffering on anyone than a calculator. In the Directors cut of Terminator 2: Judgment Day it's revealed Skynet ensures its models are designed not to learn too much when sent out alone, as it doesn't want them thinking for itself. So when Arnie's T-800 has this fixed, the Terminator actually learns the value of human life. This seems to not be the case with the T-1000 in T2 who carries out his killings with deadly cold sadism, seems almost intrigued by what he is doing with curious, dog-like head tilts when killing, and at least has the emotional capacity to cruelly taunt Sarah Connor's failed attempt at terminating him with a "tsk tsk" finger-wag. As he also seems capable of genuine shock, surprise, and even fear, if his reactions to being frozen, blown up, and thrown into the molten steel are anything to go by, it's at least possible he is capable of genuine malice as well. Word of God also reveals the T-1000 can't be set to 'read only' mode due to how complex it is and even Skynet itself is afraid of them due to how smart their role necessitates them being. The T-X from Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines displays much more overt signs of "emotion", like clear sadism such as a cruel smirk when she's managed to knock the T-850 off of her vehicle, excitement when she's located her primary target John Connor, and even outright screaming in terror when she's about to be terminated, it implies the more advanced models have rudimentary emotions possibly so they will enjoy their "work" or are just naturally inclined toward sadistic tendencies. The now obsolete T-850 all but states he doesn't care if they survive or not but is only protecting them because it's what he was programmed to do, is well aware he was meant to kill humans and was reprogrammed, and even matter-of-factly states he killed John in the future before being captured without even a hint of malice.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_1a51d671	comment	Frankenstein: Frankenstein's Monster tends to get this treatment in modern media, since he was given a disfigurement, an abnormal brain (in most versions), and then spurned by the person that created him. The only people he befriends are those that either can get past his appearance or can't see it at all. In fact, a common saying about the film is that knowledge is knowing that Frankenstein isn't actually the monster in the movie, while wisdom is understanding that he actually is.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_1c1ceec7	comment	Monster Hunter: The entire series is full of them. Most will attack the hunters, but this is due to their instincts (correctly) perceiving the hunters as threats. This has been part of the series' design philosophy from the start; the developers never wanted to portray the monsters as evil, simply a part of the natural order humanity had to struggle against - in fact, one role of the Hunter's Guild is to prevent any species of monster from becoming endangered due to overhunting. It's even mentioned in-universe that poaching is a crime that is punishable by death. Monster Hunter (2004): Lao-Shan Lung is known for being a massive dragon trying to run through several fortified walls protecting a town. It's doing this because it's running away from a Fatalis, a far more dangerous dragon. You either kill it or it finally notices the alternate path in the final area and leaves peacefully. Fatalis, often considered the most powerful and dangerous of all monsters, is an aversion - the lore unambiguously makes it clear that the events of the Great Dragon War have molded each member of the species into a Misanthrope Supreme, and they very bluntly hate all of mankind. The Gore Magala of Monster Hunter 4 is the closest thing the games have had to an outright antagonistic monster, and even it falls under this trope. It's actually an Elder Dragon living out its one-in-a-generation maturity cycle. It just happens to turn into a living rabies vector while it does, and it's smart enough to recognize that it keeps getting into scraps with the same Hunter. Monster Hunter: World: Even some returning monsters are less aggressive than they once were. There are some species that attack a hunter on sight, but this is noted as being evidence of aggressive or territorial behavior, not malice. Some monsters will now give a threat display and leave it at that if the player leaves, some will only attack if the hunter dances around like they're trying to get its attention, and a few couldn't care less until the hunter attacks first. This may or may not be the case for Xeno'Jiiva. On one hand, it does not display the typical malice for it to be called evil, and it's more or less a newborn. On the other hand, in a world filled to the brim with cataclysmic monsters, dragons who can raise the dead, and city-eating octopus, THIS monster is considered too dangerous for it to even leave its nest. Although the game never goes into details about what would have happened if you didn't kill it. Doesn't help that it willingly causes the Elder Crossing, the entire reason why the Research Commission is in the New World in the first place, so it can leech off of the dead Elder Dragons' Bio Energy so it can grow. Iceborne actually clarifies this: and the answer is yes, Xeno'jiiva is absolutely malicious, at least when it grows up into the satanic Safi'jiiva. It's essentially an alien terraformer that absorbs all life in its surroundings leaving a bleak wasteland, shows an incredibly high level of intelligence, and is explicitly stated to not care about anything other than itself. Monster Hunter: Rise Despite definetly sounding like it should be an aversion, Magnamalo (literally "Great Evil"), the vicious monster that uses purple flames called Hellfire, hunts other large monsters and and has a reputation for being murderous and destructive during the Rampage, actually plays this trope straight: it's simply an apex predator that is using the Rampage as an easy source of food, humans just end up in the middle of it. It's not any more malicious than a hungry animal, and never shows a particularly high intelligence. This one brings another pointed aversion with its Elder Dragons, Wind Serpent Ibushi and Thunder Serpent Narwa. Their base desire, to meet up and mate, is simple enough, but through their resonance with Hinoa and Minoto the two are clearly shown to be sapient — and malevolent. Ibushi is perfectly willing to "wipe the land clean" to unite with his queen, and Narwa goes even further by expressing a desire to lay waste to the world together with Ibushi after they meet. While her motivation is possibly to preemptively eliminate any threats to their offspring, this makes both dragons sociopathically indifferent to other lives at best. Sunbreak's flagship monster Malzeno seems at first to be another aversion. While its way of feeding off other monsters' life force as a vampire would to blood can just be chalked up as an unusual part of its biology, it's shown to be wickedly intelligent, excessively sadistic in its manners of hunting (literally tossing prey into the air and slamming them back down just for fun,) and given that it can evolve into a Super Mode by completely draining a human of its life force, this makes it a more direct threat to humanity than other Elder Dragons. It also makes its home in a ruined castle that it intentionally brought death and destruction to. It reality, the "normal" Malzeno are actually corrupted by the Qurio, giving Malzeno it's vampiric qualities. Their natural form are what are known as Primordial Malzeno who hold no hostility towards humanity or other monsters (though they're still willing to fight something that invades their territory), the only exception being their natural enemy Gaismagorm and the Qurio, which endanger all life. Once the hunter and Fiorayn realise this, the hunt against Primordial Malzeno shifts from killing it to saving it from the Qurio, as it is the only creature capable to dealing with the affliction threatening the kingdom.

It's explained that the process of becoming an Arrancar removes a Hollow's Always Chaotic Evil nature and gives them their sense of reason back.

Harribel and her Fraccions' actions at the end of the whole Aizen thing — and the Backstory as to how and why they came together (while they were still standard Hollows) proves it.

Lacking the divine self's cruelty and megalomania, or even the human self's sapience, they are ruled entirely by their bestial instincts, and many end up dying because they are unable to stretch their ruling instinct to cover the necessities of life (for example, a Typhon whose instinct is to enlarge and protect its Dragon Hoard might remain on that hoard until it starves to death). They can still be incredibly dangerous if disturbed, but most Leviathans leave them alone unless their instincts are such that they pose a considerable threat of harming other Leviathans or attracting attention.

Then the X Parasites got aboard, assimilated and took control of all of them, in many cases mutated them into more aggressive combat forms, and ran rogue, and the parasites actually do have a beef with Samus as she grows stronger from absorbing them rather than becoming infected due to her Metroid dna: they intelligently make plans to kill her, even being willing to eradicate themselves to kill her to ensure the safety of the X on SR388.

Their actions are not malicious in a strict sense, as they scarcely notice us. Azathoth is a pure example, being a blind, deaf god who will destroy all creation, but completely mindless - he does not know what he is doing, and is really more akin to a single cell than a sentient being. Subverted by the Outer God Nyarlathotep, who is every bit as powerful, but is fully aware of the relationship between himself, humanity, and the rest of the cosmos, and manipulates mankind. Even though it is physically as alien as all the others, it is possibly the only one of them which is genuinely malicious. In The Case of Charles Dexter Ward, Doctor Willard accidentally summons a spirit in the secret underground laboratories of Joseph Curwen, which the immortal sorcerer had not yet dared to awaken, not being sure that even with his own experience and power he would be able to keep it obedient. When Willard awakes from his unconsciousness in the house above, all entrances to the underground laboratories and the hundreds of trapped spirits within it have vanished without a trace. Sometime later, he learns that the other two immortal sorcerers of Curwens cabal in Europe have been killed in a fire and explosion that completely destroyed their mansions. All that is known about the spirit is that it knew how to write Latin in a script used in England in the 9th century.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_3aeb1c75	comment	Dragon Ball: Android 8. He looks just like Frankenstein's Monster and he was built to be a killing machine, but he's a kind gentle soul who doesn't like to hurt others, but you'd better not ever try to kill his friends. Subverted with Androids 17 and 18 in that, while thought to be murderous sociopaths in light of their alter-egos from Trunks' horrible future, not only are they not exactly murderous towards anyone not named Dr. Gero, which would play this trope straight, but they don't even really come off as sociopaths. Also subverted with Android 16, who was created specifically to kill Goku. He has enough weaponry and fighting prowess for the task, but otherwise exhibits no interest in fighting beyond his programmed mission and in defense of himself and Androids 17 and 18: he is much more content to admire nature, and even decides to outright ignore his "Kill Goku" programming to help Goku and company fight against Cell, a mutual threat. Zig-Zagged by Generic Doomsday Villain Kid Buu. While it appears that he's simply Made of Evil and enjoys causing mass death and destruction, he can't be called malicious or evil as that would imply he has the sapience, understanding, and moral agency to choose between "good" or "evil" when in actuality he's more animal than man. He's aware that he's killing people and destroying worlds, but in his eyes, it's no different from a toddler kicking down other kids' sandcastles. Because of this, he's able to briefly resist the Spirit Bomb, a feat capable by Only the Pure of Heart. While he seems like a demon, he's actually more like an amoral force of nature. Played straight later on with Super 17 in GT, who's a strange cross between Brainwashed and Crazy Android 17 and his Evil Knockoff, with twice the size and seriousness of either and a very Evil Laugh. While there's far less of a conscience, far more power, and more ego on the surface with Super 17 than the original, he still doesn't really shoot to kill anyone not named Dr. Gero during his Curb-Stomp Battle with the Z-Fighters, and it even takes a while to get there in his ensuing battle with Goku, the guy 17 was originally programmed to kill in the first place, even though his combination of Energy Absorption and Strong as He Needs to Be gives him a clear upper hand.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_3d22c14b	comment	The Mobile Suit Gundam 00 movie, Awakening Of The Trailblazer, has an example. The ELS learn about things through assimilation, and combining their forms together is merely an efficient form of communication. Humans find assimilation to be a very painful way to die. This leads to the unfortunate situation where the ELS are a peaceful race looking to learn about and communicate with humans and don't understand why humanity is trying to kill them for doing so, while humanity thinks it's defending itself against a hostile invasion. It's unclear whether the ELS even recognise themselves threatened, or if they just perceive the violence as a part of human communication, and respond in kind. The whole concept of verbal intercourse is completely incomprehensible to them after all, whereas battles are physical affairs like their assimilation.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_42ffb88e	comment	SCP Foundation: Many SCPs qualify SCP-049 is a Plague Doctor-like monster who kills people and then turns them into aggressive zombies. He does this not because he is evil, but because he trying to cure his victims of a horrible disease that only he can see and he hasn't been able to get his cure quite right, although he may just be delusional. He seems to be genuinely upset when a doctor he befriended catches the disease and he has to zombify them. Special mention goes to SCP-053, a little girl whose powers cause anyone that attacks her to instantly drop dead, while at the same time giving anyone in her vicinity an uncontrollable urge to attack her. She has no control over this, and doesn't appear to be aware that it is happening. Likewise, SCP-1471. It bills itself as an app about making friends without the awkwardness. If you download it, you'll start seeing a fairly creepy, shaggy monster with a canine Skull for a Head just out of your line of sight and get phone notifications that are essentially selfies as it gets close to you. Despite that, it has never yet taken any hostile action and seems content just to hang around you. Its only known kill is a person who was Driven to Suicide after being unable to live with Mal-0 constantly in her field of view, most "victims" of the SCP either adjust to or outright appreciate their presence. SCP-2703 is a multi-limbed, tentacled and horned gryphon creature that appears when you call a number in Bathroom Stall Graffiti. She's also a charming and educated companion who wants to go on platonic dates with nice people, which is precisely what she meant when she wrote "For a good time, call..." Unfortunately, since even in the SCP universe sometimes Humans Are the Real Monsters, this has led to her getting her heart broken before.

Once the larger dragon is killed, the other dragons are more than happy to coexist with the Vikings. Drago's Bewilderbeast in the second film is powerful, destructive, and responsible for the deaths of both Valka's Bewilderbeast and Stoick. However, he's not inherently malicious on his own: he had been abused and enslaved by Drago since he was a hatchling to become his own personal war machine, and the poor thing is so terrified of his cruel master that he obeys all his commands and never tries to defend himself even though he's grown a hundred times bigger. Fortunately for him, it's revealed in the third film that after being defeated by Toothless, he's come to live peacefully with the other dragons of the Hidden World with his vile master left behind.

It is actually a normal baby (apart from its size obviously enough) and as such can easily crush, squish and destroy everything and everyone around it by just toying with them without even really realising what it is doing. No worse than any other human during that time in their lives which means that Dr. Tongue managed to make a normal human being with too much power one of the most dangerous of his horror army. In fact once it is dealt with, it becomes a regular-sized infant and one more victim to be saved by Zeke and Julie.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_6715932e	comment	Unlike the other spirits in Spirit Hunter: NG, the Screaming Author doesn't go out of its way to hurt anyone - on the contrary, it begs people not to get close to it, and they only die because they ignore that warning. The only time it's actively malevolent is when it's destroyed instead of pacified, which is when its grudge consumes it and leads it to kill one of Akira's companions in retaliation.

Every time a dangerous monster shows up in the series, they only attack because someone made the mistake of provoking them in some way (invading their territory, hurting them, threatening their young, etc). This even extends to Eda's Owl Beast, which is shown to be just as much a victim as she is and is willing to work with her when she offers a truce.

It's actually an Elder Dragon living out its one-in-a-generation maturity cycle. It just happens to turn into a living rabies vector while it does, and it's smart enough to recognize that it keeps getting into scraps with the same Hunter.

In Oathbringer when it's rejected by one of its favorite people to influence Dalinar rather than being angry it's confused and sad, like a big friendly dog whose owner doesn't want to play anymore. It just doesn't understand people have interests beyond butchering each other, which is why it often influences both sides of a battle.

The beasts are driven into rage by microchips planted in their minds, but once the villains are defeated they went back to being docile. The largest and strongest of the bunch, the Leviathan, actually escapes at the end of the story, but since the villains controlling it are arrested the Leviathan is content with happily spending it's days at the bottom of the ocean (where it unintentionally inspires the real-life Leviathan mythos).

Non-Malicious Monster / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons: A lot of monsters have their alignment listed as True Neutral, because they're basically oversized plants or animals which may or may not have supernatural powers. Since they're not sapient, they can't make moral judgments. Fifth Edition even has a unique alignment just for this situation: "Unaligned". It is reserved exclusively for any creature incapable of making moral or ethical judgements. (There are some creatures who are so incapable who are given other alignments, but these are cases of either Made of Evil or undead.) The ultimate example of this may be the Tarrasque - a giant reptilian monster, nearly indestructible and as large as D&D size measurements get (Colossal), which rises from its slumber every few centuries to cause untold havoc as it eats everything in sight. As it digests you and your entire village And Your Little Dog, Too!, you can take comfort in the fact that it bears no ill will towards you. If Spelljammer is taken into account, it's even suggested that ordinarily the Tarrasque would be as harmless as a being larger than many houses can be — it just that it's either (essentially) poisoned or suffering from deprivation, as the air of its native world seems to be different to that of most others. The Gray Render stands out as being a two-ton armour-skinned nightmare of claws and teeth... that likes to "adopt" random people or animals, protecting them from harm and bringing them food.

Standard protocol for dealing with them involves the local equivalent of tanks. Lots of them. On the other hand, Kalros, the Mother of All Thresher Maws shows clear signs of intelligence and an understanding of tactics, but still needs to be summoned to the area and is still acting out of territorial aggression and hunger. The Thorian claims to be only acting in self-defense, but the fact that it's mind-controlling humans into being its slaves and absolutely refuses any attempts at negotiation or reconciliation casts doubt on its words. In the end, Shepard has no choice but to kill it, despite it being the only known example of its species. Zig-Zagged by the Mechanical Abomination Reapers. Their creator the Catalyst was an AI created by the Abusive Precursor Leviathans to find a solution to the constant Robot Wars across the galaxy. After everything else it tried failed, it settled on Start X to Stop X and created the Reapers to "preserve" organic life by harvesting their DNA and destroying their civilizations to make room for new ones. The Catalyst seemed genuinely invested in fulfilling its programming and actively helps Shepard find an alternative at the cost of its own life, although if Shepard shoots at it it spitefully withdraws its offer. Furthermore, the Reapers themselves don't seem to particularly care for organics, displaying nothing but contempt for them in every verbal interaction Shepard is able to make.

Its apparent unprovoked attacks against the mining colony (and two crew members) turn out to be because the colony was destroying its eggs, which they thought were nothing more than worthless silicon spheres. After Spock is able to deduce this by speaking to the creature, peace is made (and the young are actually able to help the colony dig up precious ore). The Crystalline Entity from Star Trek: The Next Generation, despite being a fearsome creature with a habit of scouring planets of all life, is never evidenced to be malicious. In "Silicon Avatar", Captain Picard refuses to destroy it simply for being hungry, except as a last resort to protect other intelligent life. Discussed in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Hope and Fear", about the Borg of all species, whom Arturis compares to a force of nature.

There's also Doomsday, who was created to be the Ultimate Life Form by tossing his cloned predecessors onto a Death World over and over while retaining the memories of his deaths. As a result, he's convinced that all life just wants him dead without being intelligent enough to understand if you were to tell him otherwise, turning him into an Omnicidal Maniac out of necessity rather than malice from his point of view. The Unknown Supergirl: The Infinite Monster carves a path of destruction through America. As far as it is concerned, though, he merely fell through a strange hole into a strange land and then wandering around aimlessly. And since he was so humongous, he probably didn't even notice the presence of humans scurrying around his feet and trying to not being killed.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_8ec33a86	comment	Xenoblade Chronicles 1: Most of the creatures you fight in the series are more or less just wild animals and aren't inherently evil. Elma even lampshades the trope in Chronicles X, saying that they mostly leave the local fauna alone, only attacking the wildlife that actually poses a threat and/or attacks first. Most of the missions that require you to kill a certain number of creatures are justified as the animals being territorial around supply convoys or are otherwise interfering with construction and transport. Telethia the Endbringer in Chronicles X is a stand-out case: it flat-out will not attack unless attacked first. It saves the protagonists in their first encounter with it (whether intentionally or not is unclear). In a later sidequest, the player is asked to retrieve one of its scales, necessitating a fight with it. The player is extremely unlikely to be anywhere near strong enough to truly challenge Telethia at that point, but if they do so anyway, Telethia basically drops a scale after a few attacks and goes away without further conflict, suggesting it knew why the player attacked it and wasn't offended/threatened by the attack.

There are some species that attack a hunter on sight, but this is noted as being evidence of aggressive or territorial behavior, not malice. Some monsters will now give a threat display and leave it at that if the player leaves, some will only attack if the hunter dances around like they're trying to get its attention, and a few couldn't care less until the hunter attacks first. This may or may not be the case for Xeno'Jiiva. On one hand, it does not display the typical malice for it to be called evil, and it's more or less a newborn. On the other hand, in a world filled to the brim with cataclysmic monsters, dragons who can raise the dead, and city-eating octopus, THIS monster is considered too dangerous for it to even leave its nest. Although the game never goes into details about what would have happened if you didn't kill it. Doesn't help that it willingly causes the Elder Crossing, the entire reason why the Research Commission is in the New World in the first place, so it can leech off of the dead Elder Dragons' Bio Energy so it can grow. Iceborne actually clarifies this: and the answer is yes, Xeno'jiiva is absolutely malicious, at least when it grows up into the satanic Safi'jiiva. It's essentially an alien terraformer that absorbs all life in its surroundings leaving a bleak wasteland, shows an incredibly high level of intelligence, and is explicitly stated to not care about anything other than itself.

The Hork-Bajir, despite having enough blades on their bodies that they have been described as walking Cuisinarts, are actually peaceful herbivores who use all that hardware to strip tree bark and are actually quite friendly. The Taxxons are more dangerous, but not maliciously so — they are cursed with a permanent all-consuming hunger that makes them desperate for food, and will even eat themselves if necessary. They simply can't help it. Also, the Howlers. When Jake morphs into one he's expecting the instincts of some insane killing machine, and is shocked to discover that their minds are more similar to playful dolphins—the only reason they kill is because Crayak has kept them from realizing that their victims are any more sentient than a video game character. The particular band the Animorphs are fighting actually get destroyed as soon as they realize the truth, since Crayak can't let this knowledge spread to the rest of the species' Hive Mind. They get some of it anyway, forcing Crayak to abandon them as shock troops.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_97d48df5	comment	In the MonsterVerse movies: In general, most of the Titans behave largely like real life wild animals following their own instincts with little to no regard for humans one way or the other. Most of the damage they cause is simply a byproduct of their immense size, such as the Mexican town being torn apart by the tornado-like winds that Rodan inadvertantly creates by flapping his wings while flying overhead. They typically will only deliberately attack humans after the humans provoke them or when they're following the orders of an openly hostile Alpha like King Ghidorah. The two notable exceptions are King Ghidorah (an invasive alien entity) and Mechagodzilla (a robotic human-built Titan whose programming is subsequently hijacked by Ghidorah's last surviving head), who both exist outside of Earth's natural order. Godzilla (2014): Godzilla's not particularly interested in fighting with humans and goes out of his way not to fight them even when they are opening fire on him. Like Gareth Edwards has said, humans are like ants to him. You don't go out of your way to stomp on every ant you see, do you? The M.U.T.O.s aren't really evil either, most of the destruction they cause is just due to them being so large, and through the movie, they act like actual animals. There are even sympathetic moments with them, such as the loving moment the couple have sharing a nuke, and the mother crying at the destruction of her nest. An excellent example of their being non-malicious is the mass levels of destruction caused by the female in Las Vegas, which is entirely incidental as she walks through the city in a straight line and implacably ignores everything around her and all efforts to slow her down or stop her; during the climax, though, her nest being destroyed drives her into an Unstoppable Rage and she very deliberately starts attacking people who get in the way of her pursuit of the one who did it. King Kong from Kong: Skull Island is normally a Gentle Giant to the island's natives and even willingly protects some of the main characters. He's only pissed because Packard and his crew flew into his home unprovoked and dropped bombs that awoke the Skull Crawlers. However, he kills Packard's crew, sparking a Moby Schtick between the two. The Skull Crawlers themselves aren't being intentionally evil either: their biology has cursed them with a hyperactive metabolism that leaves them constantly on the brink of starvation. Averted with the Big One, however, who is shown to be much more intelligent than the rest, and explicitly cruel and malicious. Averted big time for King Ghidorah in Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019), who is an alien invader with his own nefarious plans to destroy all life on earth and terraform the planet to his liking. His first showing of this is shortly after he's unleashed when, as a group of soldiers futilely open fire on him, he very clearly takes notice of them—as opposed to Godzilla just flat-out ignoring the same "threat" in the 2014 film—and very deliberately vaporizes them, and them specifically, for daring to try to attack him. Zig-Zagged with Rodan in this incarnation: on one hand, he was awoken by Alan Jonah's terrorist organization, and only served and fought for Ghidorah out of fear, submitting to Godzilla after Ghidorah's defeat and living peacefully on Mt. Fuji. On the other hand, he does show a mild sense of glee when he barrel-rolls midair to destroy the attacking air force, and seems perfectly happy to eat the ejecting pilots... Subverted in Godzilla vs. Kong—the film opens with Godzilla attacking Pensacola, Florida, and everyone is confused as to why he's suddenly attacking people instead of just causing collateral damage while fighting another Titan, which turns out to be because a different Titan is very much not a Non-Malicious Monster: Mechagodzilla, created by Apex—the corporation that Godzilla is actually attacking, making his apparent malice much more targeted than it first appears to be—using part of Ghidorah's body left over from King of the Monsters. Ghidorah's consciousness completely takes over for climax as he tries to take revenge against Godzilla. His antagonism towards Kong is therefore less that he actually has anything against Kong and more that he's trying to eliminate an extra signal so that he can find Mechagodzilla more easily.

While there's far less of a conscience, far more power, and more ego on the surface with Super 17 than the original, he still doesn't really shoot to kill anyone not named Dr. Gero during his Curb-Stomp Battle with the Z-Fighters, and it even takes a while to get there in his ensuing battle with Goku, the guy 17 was originally programmed to kill in the first place, even though his combination of Energy Absorption and Strong as He Needs to Be gives him a clear upper hand.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_995508b0	comment	In Monsters, it's heavily implied if not downright stated that the aliens aren't the aggressive monsters that they are perceived as. Sure they look scary, especially given they're nocturnal and their appearance. They do hurt and even kill people but this is probably curiosity, self-defense, and just their sheer size. During the finale, two of the creatures meet up in an awe-inspiring light show and completely ignore the humans nearby. This is made explicitly clear in Monsters Dark Continent, as none of the onscreen deaths are caused by the creatures, and it's obvious that the locals could adapt just fine to their presence.

It tends to ignore humans when larger and meatier prey is around (specifically giant squids and whales), more than once killing people only accidentally. During the scene where the megalodon ventures near a beach crowded with boaters and swimmers, it ignores all of them until someone notices it and sparks a panic, and it becomes agitated by all the splashing. Even then, it immediately disengages its attack when it hears a simulated whale call nearby.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_9ff4a8d9	comment	When Godzilla is portrayed as an Anti-Hero, it's usually as one of these. A very notable aversion in Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack!, in which Godzilla is portrayed as an undead monster possessed by the souls of the victims of World War II, and is iconically the one and only time Godzilla himself is portrayed as truly evil. Rodan in the original film Rodan. He never directly attacks humans (and in fact eats the monsters who do), and all the damage he causes is either the accidental byproduct of the downdraft of his wings as he flies around or caused by the JSDF's lousy aim. Mothra. She's by far the most benevolent monster in the Godzilla films and only attacks when someone either kidnaps her fairy companions or tries to hurt her offspring. Hedorah in his debut film Godzilla vs. Hedorah. As horrifying and destructive as he is, Hedorah's role in the film is akin to an invasive species; he isn't intentionally targeting the humans he kills, and his actions are more a means to secure his own survival. That being said, his existence as a monster that both consumes and propagates pollution threatens the entire Earth, and thus he must be stopped. Minya and Godzilla Junior. Justified in that both are infants. Zilla from Godzilla (1998) isn't specifically hostile in any way; it mostly acts merely like an animal would, and much of the destruction of New York is actually the military causing collateral damage every time they miss the fast-moving creature. The titular monster of Shin Godzilla doesn't demonstrate any hostile intent for most of the film; one government official even declares that "all it does is walk." Even when under direct military assault, he barely reacts due to not taking any real damage from it. Only when he gets hit by serious ordnance does he start actively fighting back, breaking out a horrifyingly effective self-defense mechanism that also irradiates half of Tokyo. One of the few snatches of his perspective that we see is in the song "Who Will Know", which suggests him to be mournful, afraid, and in constant pain, seeking only to defend himself. In the MonsterVerse movies: In general, most of the Titans behave largely like real life wild animals following their own instincts with little to no regard for humans one way or the other. Most of the damage they cause is simply a byproduct of their immense size, such as the Mexican town being torn apart by the tornado-like winds that Rodan inadvertantly creates by flapping his wings while flying overhead. They typically will only deliberately attack humans after the humans provoke them or when they're following the orders of an openly hostile Alpha like King Ghidorah.

Fuji. On the other hand, he does show a mild sense of glee when he barrel-rolls midair to destroy the attacking air force, and seems perfectly happy to eat the ejecting pilots... Subverted in Godzilla vs. Kong—the film opens with Godzilla attacking Pensacola, Florida, and everyone is confused as to why he's suddenly attacking people instead of just causing collateral damage while fighting another Titan, which turns out to be because a different Titan is very much not a Non-Malicious Monster: Mechagodzilla, created by Apex—the corporation that Godzilla is actually attacking, making his apparent malice much more targeted than it first appears to be—using part of Ghidorah's body left over from King of the Monsters. Ghidorah's consciousness completely takes over for climax as he tries to take revenge against Godzilla. His antagonism towards Kong is therefore less that he actually has anything against Kong and more that he's trying to eliminate an extra signal so that he can find Mechagodzilla more easily. Played with in Godzilla Minus One: Godzilla makes his first appearance very early in the runtime, and while he attacks one of the Japanese watchtowers on Odo Island, he almost seems more disoriented actually aggressive...until the soldiers open fire on him and then he attacks them, very deliberately massacring them almost to a one. Once he's satisfied that annoyance is dealt with, though, he leaves and doesn't return until after he happens to be caught in a nuclear detonation test, causing him to develop a deep hatred for humans as a species and, at this point, he starts going out of his way to slaughter people. If this version of Godzilla started as a Non-Malicious Monster, he certainly wasn't one by the end of the film.

For one thing, the "extras" aren't even aware of their status and mean no harm. Their mere presence, unfortunately, is what triggers the curse.

The only reason it's been killing people is because they're unknowingly provoking it by looking directly at it, which it perceives as a challenge, similar to many animals. OJ and his sister are able to use the knowledge that it's only an animal to their advantage in the climax by using their experience as horse trainers to predict how it will act. A significant portion of the film revolves around a traumatic incident where a trained chimpanzee flew into a rage during the taping of a sitcom, where it ends up killing two adult actors and mutilating one of the child actors. It wasn't malicious or rabid, but it was a wild animal acting on wild animal instincts. It's implied that it interpreted the live studio audience watching it as a provocation, much like the UFO did.

Unlike the comics where he was completely evil and — true to his namesake — tried to be a Galactic Conqueror, he's introduced here just floating aimlessly in space, minding his own business, and gazing at the stars in bliss. It's only after being captured and tortured by the Thinker on behalf of the United States Government for thirty years that he grew a hatred for humans, with even his name being a mocking nickname given to him by the Thinker.

However, he's not inherently malicious on his own: he had been abused and enslaved by Drago since he was a hatchling to become his own personal war machine, and the poor thing is so terrified of his cruel master that he obeys all his commands and never tries to defend himself even though he's grown a hundred times bigger. Fortunately for him, it's revealed in the third film that after being defeated by Toothless, he's come to live peacefully with the other dragons of the Hidden World with his vile master left behind.

Ghidorah's consciousness completely takes over for climax as he tries to take revenge against Godzilla. His antagonism towards Kong is therefore less that he actually has anything against Kong and more that he's trying to eliminate an extra signal so that he can find Mechagodzilla more easily.

Interestingly, maybe due to their experience with the Hulk above this aspect of Godzilla's character is emphasized and explored far more closely than it had been in any film entry up to its release. Godzilla was given third-person omniscient narration boxes, showing what was happening inside his mind for the first time, and it turns out he's mostly just reacting to things in the only way he knows how. While that doesn't strictly gel with his contemporary big-screen portrayal, in some ways it's eerily prophetic of his future MonsterVerse incarnation which plays with many of the same ideas.

Even when under direct military assault, he barely reacts due to not taking any real damage from it. Only when he gets hit by serious ordnance does he start actively fighting back, breaking out a horrifyingly effective self-defense mechanism that also irradiates half of Tokyo. One of the few snatches of his perspective that we see is in the song "Who Will Know", which suggests him to be mournful, afraid, and in constant pain, seeking only to defend himself.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_c353ea41	comment	Zigzagged in the Jurassic Park films, given the varying levels of intelligence of the various carnivorous dinosaurs. The Tyrannosaurus rex, Procompsognathus, and Dilophosaurus are simply carnivorous animals that only eat people because they are easy prey. Additionally, they are mostly shown eating people we're not supposed to sympathize with (in one case, it's even Played for Laughs) and, given the opportunity, the T. rex goes after other dinosaurs instead of the humans. The Pteranodon generally snatch up humans only when they wander into their enclosure, and in Jurassic World, they're motivated by a mix of panic and redirected aggression. The raptors, on the other hand, are shown to be intelligent and capable of sadism, though mostly it was born from a lack of early socialization: in the fourth film, a quartet of young raptors are raised by trainer Owen Grady, and they imprint on him and recognize him as their alpha (though they occasionally have moments where they challenge his authority, especially as they grow older.) The Spinosaurus from Jurassic Park III takes Super-Persistent Predator to the point that it seems like it just hates humans, though it's mostly it being incredibly territorial after getting rammed into by an airplane and shot multiple times. In the same film, the main characters run into a Ceratosaurus which only gives them a cursory glance before leaving, apparently being spooked by the Spinosaurus dung indicating the presence of a larger predator. Completely averted with the Indominus rex from Jurassic World, which was specifically bred to be a hyper-aggressive killing machine, shown to be killing for sport. She slaughters an entire herd of Apatosaures and doesn't take one bite. Owen initially believes she was crazy due to not being able to socialize with anything; unknown to him she had a sibling -who she ate. She also tries to kill the raptors simply for refusing to kill the humans who posed no threat at the time. She is the first and only dinosaur in the franchise to be genuinely evil. Downplayed with the Indoraptor in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. He is clearly shown to enjoy toying with his prey and killing people. However, unlike the I. rex he is shown to kill for food and was shown to be abused and mistreated by the humans. He also noticeably only kills people who are either armed with a gun or who have just screamed. Played straight again with the Giganotosaurus in Jurassic World Dominion, despite being hyped up by the director as the most evil and sadistic dinosaur yet. It's first introduced simply sleeping, scares off the T. rex during their first encounter with only a warning bite, and only attacks the protagonists once, incidentally at that. Even then, it's warded off after being hurt enough times and doesn't come back. In fact, it's one of the only predators in the entire series that doesn't kill a single human.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_c4282b71	comment	My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: The second episode has Twilight and friends come face to face with a manticore. They attack the beast, which is acting in a threatening manner, before Fluttershy yells for them to stop. She then cuddles up to it and finds a thorn in its paw, which she removes. Once the thorn — and the pain — is gone, the manticore becomes a lot calmer. Everypony else is amazed by this. Fluttershy is a master at dealing with this trope. When a dragon's hundred-year nap threatens to cover Equestria in smoke, she gets it to leave simply by firmly telling it about what will happen to the ponies (after making it burst into tears). When Cerberus starts rampaging through Ponyville, Fluttershy calms him with belly rubs and says he's just a big dog that got out of his yard. The Ursa Minor that Snips and Snails lure into town is this as well. Turns out it's just a baby that's ticked that it was pestered in its sleep, and all it needs is some warm milk to calm it right back down. The Parasprites, like any Explosive Breeder, are only concerned with food and breeding, and even then they aren't too bad until Twilight's botched spell causes them to eat everything except food. Princess Flurry Heart in her debut episode is, personality-wise, your standard sweet-natured baby: unfortunately her mind-blowing level of magical power combined with said baby whims wreaks havoc on the Crystal Empire, culminating when she is separated from Pinkie Pie and cries, unleashing a sonic blast that shatters the Crystal Heart and nearly dooms the city to a freezing death. In Generation 1, the Smooze was a purple slime creature that washed over Dream Valley and nearly induced a Sugar Apocalypse until stopped. It was fully aware of the effects its actions, and if anything seemed to enjoy doing what it did. In Friendship is Magic, it's an amicable green slime creature that attends the Grand Galloping Gala as Discord's plus-one. The trouble it causes during the event is not so much malicious as a result of an irresistible urge to eat shiny objects and annoyance with its treatment by the one who brought him there.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: Shows up quite a bit, particularly when Steven Moffat was writing or running the show. Several stories ("The Empty Child"/"The Doctor Dances", "The Curse of the Black Spot", "The Girl Who Waited") feature medical equipment wreaking havoc by innocently trying to "cure" members of species they are unfamiliar or incompatible with. "The Girl in the Fireplace": The clockwork droids are simply part of a spaceship's severely malfunctioning self-repair system. True, they dissect the crew for parts, but only because they were never programmed not to. Subverted when the clockwork robots return in ''Deep Breath''; the robots have been around for so long, adding so much organic matter to themselves, that they have developed sapience and understand the implications of their actions, so they can now be reasonably considered malicious. "Silence in the Library"/"Forest of the Dead" plays with the trope: the Doctor mentions that the Vashta Nerada are normally benign and live off roadkill. The aggressiveness of the huge swarm that's taken over the Library is highly unusual. "Vincent And The Doctor" features the Krafayis, an invisible monster killing people in 19th century Provence. However, it really is little more than an animal. Furthermore, the Doctor realises that this one is blind and wounded, left behind by its pack, striking out at everything around it out of fear. A direct comparison is made between the Krafayris and guest character Vincent, as both are lonely and traumatised from their experiences. "Flatline" outright subverts it: the Doctor thinks the aliens might not realize they're hurting anyone, but when he gets through the Starfish Language barrier, the aliens just use it to mock and gloat. "The Pilot": Discussed, the Doctor mentions that just about everything in the universe is dangerous, but few things are evil, while many things are hungry â€” which is easily confused with evil when you're on the wrong side of it. "Smile": The Vardy robots were programmed to help humans be happy, but the optimistic people who built them didn't anticipate them dealing with negative emotions. When they see a family grieving for a loved one, they deduce that grief is a virulent disease and start killing anyone who doesn't look happy. "Arachnids in the UK": The Giant Spiders are confused by the fact they've mutated to several times their natural size, and are just trying to follow their instincts to survive, which unfortunately means preying on humans rather than insects. "The Tsuranga Conundrum": Despite the huge danger it poses to the ship and its passengers, the Pting isn't actively trying to hurt or kill anyone. It's just really hungry, and sees the ship as food. "It Takes You Away": The Solitract is just lonely and wants company. Unfortunately, this threatens the existence of both universes.

In fact, up until some adventurers goaded them into hunting down the beast, that is exactly what everyone in the area had been doing for years. Further, she relates the wyvern was female and had an egg, making it likely more aggressive than usual in protecting its young. Kimi tried to rear its hatchling, but sadly it died.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_d3111230	comment	Monster Hunter: Rise Despite definetly sounding like it should be an aversion, Magnamalo (literally "Great Evil"), the vicious monster that uses purple flames called Hellfire, hunts other large monsters and and has a reputation for being murderous and destructive during the Rampage, actually plays this trope straight: it's simply an apex predator that is using the Rampage as an easy source of food, humans just end up in the middle of it. It's not any more malicious than a hungry animal, and never shows a particularly high intelligence. This one brings another pointed aversion with its Elder Dragons, Wind Serpent Ibushi and Thunder Serpent Narwa. Their base desire, to meet up and mate, is simple enough, but through their resonance with Hinoa and Minoto the two are clearly shown to be sapient — and malevolent. Ibushi is perfectly willing to "wipe the land clean" to unite with his queen, and Narwa goes even further by expressing a desire to lay waste to the world together with Ibushi after they meet. While her motivation is possibly to preemptively eliminate any threats to their offspring, this makes both dragons sociopathically indifferent to other lives at best. Sunbreak's flagship monster Malzeno seems at first to be another aversion. While its way of feeding off other monsters' life force as a vampire would to blood can just be chalked up as an unusual part of its biology, it's shown to be wickedly intelligent, excessively sadistic in its manners of hunting (literally tossing prey into the air and slamming them back down just for fun,) and given that it can evolve into a Super Mode by completely draining a human of its life force, this makes it a more direct threat to humanity than other Elder Dragons. It also makes its home in a ruined castle that it intentionally brought death and destruction to. It reality, the "normal" Malzeno are actually corrupted by the Qurio, giving Malzeno it's vampiric qualities. Their natural form are what are known as Primordial Malzeno who hold no hostility towards humanity or other monsters (though they're still willing to fight something that invades their territory), the only exception being their natural enemy Gaismagorm and the Qurio, which endanger all life. Once the hunter and Fiorayn realise this, the hunt against Primordial Malzeno shifts from killing it to saving it from the Qurio, as it is the only creature capable to dealing with the affliction threatening the kingdom.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_d861bfb	comment	In The Infinite Loops, Billy from The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy has the dubious honor of being a Malicious Looping Entity for no other reason than outright lethal stupidity instead of any ill intentions. He has managed to get a number of very old and extremely powerful loopers killed (in Anakin Skywalker's case more than once), and crash three supposedly uncrashable Safe Mode loops, all completely by accident. In fact, a fused loop with The Fairly OddParents! shows that he really doesn't mean any harm, but doesn't understand why most other loopers hate him.

The monster seems almost unbeatable, but then Strange reads its mind. As it turns out, the rampage is just a reaction to being plucked out of its home realm and deposited in a strange world; it is scared, lonely, and simply wants to go home. Strange complies, ending the threat.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_e68decb8	comment	A couple of the antagonists of Star Control. The Mycon, a race of sentient fungus, are so alien in their thinking that it's hard to ascribe any malice to their actions, even when said actions involve turning life-bearing planets into volcanic wastelands. Talking to them, it's readily apparent that they are either completely mad or just so different that doing this is just their nature. It's also implied that they aren't natural creatures, and were created by ancient aliens as a terraforming device before they went haywire. The Slylandro Probes. The Slylandro people themselves turn out to be perfectly friendly and peaceful creatures who wouldn't harm a fly — and couldn't; they are sentient pockets of gas and can't interact physically or leave their gas giant planet. So they bought some handy self-replicating probes from the Melnorme to explore the galaxy and meet new friends for them. But they are new to this computer thing and set the priority of the self-replicating behavior much too high. Now the probes hail your ship, give you a cordial greeting, and then try to reduce your ship to raw materials, becoming the game's Goddamned Bats in the process.

However, if Miriam waits long enough, Rul'sha will bless her with a stat boost and then disappear. Harrier is a unique Ninja "enemy" in the Den of Behemoths who challenges Miriam to a race. If she wins, he will die on the spot and relinquish the one-of-a-kind Accelerator shard. Orlok Dracule is a vampire found in Livre Ex Machina who will actually help Miriam, as well as allow her to take out books, over time allowing her to take more books and even granting her an especially rare one. However, if Miriam travels to the endgame area with that book still in her inventory, Orlok will become a hostile superboss. If beaten, he begrudgingly goes back to being non-malicious and, in fact, regards Miriam as his new mistress.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_f04b4111	comment	Metroid: Most enemies are simply local wildlife with no real beef with Samus. Even the eponymous Metroids themselves are this; the Space Pirates have spent years trying to control them for use in battle, but so far they've only gotten as far as "dump a bunch of Metroids in a room and run away." The Queen Metroid meanwhile, has perfectly understandable Mama Bear rage against Samus. Ultimately, the Metroids are a threat to the galaxy because of their potential to be used as weapons by others, not because of their own choices. Super Metroid: A plausible interpretation of Crocomire, who doesn't attack you unless you attack him or approach too close. There are several other monsters that can also damage you if you approach them the wrong way, but otherwise won't hurt you and can help you (which may be required to do a 100% run); these include Shaktool (which will clear away the sand in the way of the Spring Ball) and Kame/the Tatori (which can allow you to reach the Energy Tank), both in Maridia. This was the case aboard the BSL Research Station in Metroid Fusion, where most of the wildlife kept there for research are simple wild animals doing what wild animals do, and some were even outright docile. Then the X Parasites got aboard, assimilated and took control of all of them, in many cases mutated them into more aggressive combat forms, and ran rogue, and the parasites actually do have a beef with Samus as she grows stronger from absorbing them rather than becoming infected due to her Metroid dna: they intelligently make plans to kill her, even being willing to eradicate themselves to kill her to ensure the safety of the X on SR388. Which leads to the X Parasites themselves. Despite being described as "evil" by the Chozo, the X act much closer to a typical animal species, always looking for the self-preservation of its kind first and foremost, thus they expand their populations and take down any potential threats to further its chances of survival (some X will even sacrifice themselves to ensure the safety of bigger populations). It's just that the methods it employs to do so are considered horrifyingly destructive and inhumane for any sentient being and, if left unchecked, all universal life would end up in conceivable danger, but because the X is an alien parasitic lifeform akin to a giant virus or bacteria, it just plays by the evolutionary rules and tools it was given. The fact that it is clearly intelligent, might be sapient and capable of emulating a victim's memories and personality, with the latter ability possibly influencing its decision-making process, further muddies things up. In Metroid Dread, the X controlling Quiet Robe quite clearly sacrifices itself to save Samus' life; but whether or not that was due to being influenced by Quiet Robe's personality is unclear.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_f1414a2b	comment	The T-X from Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines displays much more overt signs of "emotion", like clear sadism such as a cruel smirk when she's managed to knock the T-850 off of her vehicle, excitement when she's located her primary target John Connor, and even outright screaming in terror when she's about to be terminated, it implies the more advanced models have rudimentary emotions possibly so they will enjoy their "work" or are just naturally inclined toward sadistic tendencies. The now obsolete T-850 all but states he doesn't care if they survive or not but is only protecting them because it's what he was programmed to do, is well aware he was meant to kill humans and was reprogrammed, and even matter-of-factly states he killed John in the future before being captured without even a hint of malice.

In fact, they are not directly a threat to the player at all, outside of their killed remains attract Volatiles. Screamers, what you get when very young children get infected, react with fear toward Kyle rather than aggression. The problem is their scream is so deafeningly loud it not only harms Kyle, but attracts every other infected within range. When left alone they either huddle in rooms in fear crying or, in one case, laugh while watching cartoons, and one of Kyle's means of dispatching them is to get close and comfort it in his arms until it stops screaming and he can snap its neck.

Non-Malicious Monster / int_fc1d6ac6	comment	A common theme explored extensively in The Witcher, both the novels and the video games based on them. One reason the witchers are running out of work is that humans are simply learning to live with monstrous creatures, such as a mayor in one story who refuses Geralt's offer to kill a troll because it keeps the bridge in good repair without asking for anything in return, even if it does occasionally break someone's leg for refusing to pay the crossing toll. Some larger beasts like wyverns, griffons, and drakes are just protecting their territory or their young. Even succubi are largely friendly and mean no one any harm, only killing in self-defense or by accident, the latter often being a consequence of their Extreme Libido. Humans, meanwhile, are as capable of evil as any supernatural creature.
