Psycho for Hire	comment	A hired agent who is in it for the killing and torturing. There doesn't need to be killing involved; they like doing unpleasant things to people and there are people willing (and dumb enough) to pay them to do something they'd probably do for free. The paycheck or other reward they get at the end of the day is incidental; they get a huge kick out of hurting complete strangers, Never Hurt an Innocent and Would Not Shoot a Civilian is not in their vocabulary and will be very glad to target them too. On the pro side, you could say they love their job.note The labor economics term for this is "non-pecuniary benefits". Another example of a job with non-pecuniary benefits is working at Club Med in Antigua (you get to live in a tropical resort). When a job has awesome non-pecuniary benefits, the employer can pay low wages. Instantly identifiable by their Evil Laugh, at least one unusual signature weapon, a flashy style, and a tendency to play with their victims like a cat. Many of them, the less-restrained ones, are Ax-Crazy and often wield axes. When on the side of the Good Guys, they are invariably the Token Evil Teammate and/or the Psycho Party Member. Most are mercenaries, the handful who aren't are summoned and controlled with Applied Phlebotinum. They are almost never the Big Bad, because unstable maniacs don't make good or interesting plotters (usually). The Big Bad often has contempt for them for precisely this reason. Note that the Evil Overlord List discourages hiring such individuals, as they "tend to do dumb things like even the odds to give the other guy a sporting chance." In fact, it's hard to understand why any intelligent Big Bad would hire these guys, given their tendencies to attract attention by killing vast numbers of innocent bystanders as a regular occurrence, convert any assignment meant to intimidate into a bloodbath because "people scare better when they're dying", turn down easy chances to kill the hero because "it wouldn't be fun", and turn on their bosses because of trivial or imagined "insults" or just For the Evulz. Not every Psycho For Hire is an unstable lunatic, though — beware the mercenary who has managed to focus their love of violence into total professionalism in a job they adore. The Blood Knight also enjoys himself without much purpose, but he just loves the fight, although both could overlap. The Combat Sadomasochist also enjoys hurting others, but differs in that they also enjoy being hurt. The Sociopathic Soldier can be extremely similar to this trope but is retained by a single employer, usually his nation's armed forces. In most works that feature such characters, the psycho in question will make it quite clear to potential clients that murder is their calling. Despite this, it's not uncommon for them to get saddled with a job that outlines an explicit No-Harm Requirement (rather than say, a Consummate Professional who are much better at this). Despite being aware of their psychopathic nature, a client may find their skillset nonetheless ideal for the job and demand that the quarry in question be unharmed. As you can expect, the Psycho for Hire is rarely enthusiastic about taking on such a job. If they're not outright forced into the job, they often will only even consider cause they they need the reward offered. In the end, they may even end up defying the requirement and try to kill the target anyway. Contrast the more realistic Serial Killer, who doesn't flaunt it, and the less realistic Heroic Comedic Sociopath who hangs around heroes and whose sadistic games are treated as wacky hijinx for the sake of comedy. As various examples of the latter may testify, it is all too possible for a character to sit on the fence. If the Psycho isn't for hire, he's doing it For the Evulz. The all but canonical alignment for these characters is Neutral Evil; Chaotic Evil characters of this type usually go "freelance"; and Lawful Evil is typically more professional. Psychos abound in many criminal organizations and other places, so this is Truth in Television, but of course No Real Life Examples, Please!

When the Ice King hires a hitman (not understanding what the term actually means) to physically hit Finn and Jake after they ground him for trying to kidnap another princess, he soon learns his error and tries to correct it. However, the mute, fire-controlling Scorcher refuses to go back on the deal, simply burning up anything Ice King offers him in an attempt to dissuade him. He only gives up trying to kill the pair when Ice King convinces him that they are already dead.

A hired gun who Loves the Sound of Screaming, has committed at least twenty murders, and whose idea of fun is killing his victims slowly by ripping their daemons away from them over a long period of time. Daemons in this series being the embodiment of a person's soul, with the act of touching another person's daemon being described as the most disturbing and painful violation imaginable. McConville likens the sensation to reaching into a person's chest and slowly ripping out their heart.

Despite most of his comrades recognizing this he appears to have impressed part of the mindset that led him to such actions onto every one of them, with varying reactions. He becomes a more classic example, or so it's implied, after the very government that claims vigilantes are dangerous hires him as a political assassin. He knew damn well he'd passed any sane person's Moral Event Horizon and didn't give a damn.

Psycho for Hire / int_1bd9c52c	comment	The biggest example is Lobo, a parody of Nineties Anti Heroes whose favorite sport is killing. It's been shown that even hiring Lobo is dangerous. He's killed, and generally destroyed the planet of, most people who've ever hired him. Most recently he was tasked by a god with tracking down the one weapon that could kill said god and returning with it. Upon completing his mission, Lobo immediately killed the god with it. He really should have seen that coming. On the flip side, Lobo always keeps his word and completes the contract to the letter. Meaning that if the contract had said 'not kill me with the weapon', Lobo would have left him alive. But you have to be careful with the words, as shown when he was forced to bring a certain person to Vril Dox only to discover it was his fourth grade teacher, the one person he wanted dead above everyone in the universe: Lobo brought her to Vril Dox alive (and legless), but as soon as Vril Dox said she was in his care Lobo killed her, as Dox had said nothing about leaving her alive after completing the job. Bear in mind that Vril Dox is just about the only person in the universe who Lobo will listen to.

In addition to being a sadistic, deranged sociopath, she's a Bounty Hunter — the fluff specifically identifies her as a "Darkhunter," a type of bounty hunter specializing in capturing or killing monsters. She ended up summoned to the Majigen because she was considered to qualify as a "monster" by Jedah, despite being completely human... and instantly decided to kill everyone else. Even more unsettling is her innocent demeanor and resemblance to Little Red Riding Hood.

He gets bored when the baddies use giant lasers and stuff to do it and unlike Mudou he seems to have no other goal than killing. Ironically, Shezar's combat style is strictly ranged weapons.

Psycho for Hire / int_20336460	comment	The Jagged Alliance series is full of these, although there are far fewer psychos than mentally "stable" mercs. It is also notable that between the second and third installment in the series when A.I.M. becomes a high-profile and almost respectable organization, most of the outright certifiable people on the roster are quietly dropped. A notable example from the first game is Reuban, an outright psychopath who murdered his entire family with a hedge trimmer. If put on the same team with Ivan for even a short while, he will eventually pull out a weapon and attempt to kill Ivan. He will also leave if not allowed to kill a sufficient number of enemies each day. Partly as a result, two highly experienced mercs (in addition to a few others) outright refuse to work with him: There are several other characters with these traits, including Skitz, Postie, and a few others. The Psycho trait from Jagged Alliance 2 causes a mercenary to randomly switch to autofire and needlessly expend a lot of ammo shooting wildly at the enemy. These characters also get a morale drop if equipped with a weapon that can't autofire.

Psycho for Hire / int_30a5ebfd	comment	In Naruto, this trope abounds. After all, it deals with a society of mercenaries where death is a commodity. Momochi Zabuza was originally this and works for the Big Bad of the arc until he is betrayed. Cue messy end for both. Deidara, on the other hand, took on contracts from antinationalist terrorists prior to joining Akatsuki, stating his reason for doing such was just to blow things up with his art. Even his time with Akatsuki was less about fulfilling their plans than getting even with Itachi. Gaara before his Heelâ€“Face Turn also qualifies for this. His main reason for acting as a shinobi was to find more people to kill and he shared a hate-hate relationship with his father/boss. Kakuzu and Hidan are two sides of this coin. Kakuzu joined Akatsuki to gain money, power, and because he's killed everyone else he worked with. Hidan joined because it's more satisfying to kill powerful opponents and a world where he rules means more sacrifices for his god.

Psycho for Hire / int_3aeb1c75	comment	The Dragon Ball series has a number of these: Tao Pai Pai charges 10 billion Zeni per kill but nonetheless loves killing people. Hell, the very first thing he says to Goku is "Pleased to kill you." Tambourine's character profile lists his hobby as killing people, which is also his job. It's expanded on in the anime, where after he kills Giran, a bear person who Giran was bullying tries to thank him, and Tambourine promptly cuts him down, openly admitting to the bear's son that while he killed Giran for a job, he killed the father for fun. The Saiyan race as a whole served as this for Frieza. While their planet was annexed by Frieza, they were nonetheless bloodthirsty, genocidal Space Pirates who took pleasure in causing pain and wiping out civilizations. Dodoria, one of Frieza's Co-Dragons. In contrast to Zarbon, who's more of a Punch-Clock Villain, Dodoria is openly sadistic, cruel, and almost as bloodthirsty as Frieza himself. There is also Beerus. As a Destroyer Deity, it's his job to destroy planets. In Dragon Ball Super, however, he mentions that he actually enjoys seeing the planets he destroys explode, and never gets tired of the sight.

Psycho for Hire / int_3b34143f	comment	Harry Potter Fenrir Greyback, a minor villain from the later books, has the added bonus of being a werewolf. Most Death Eaters tend to blur the line between this trope and Psycho Supporter, but Greyback isn't counted as a "true" Death Eater. He's just a mercenary who Voldemort allows to wear Death Eater robes in exchange for his hired savagery. At one point, Greyback explicitly volunteers to join an attack on Hogwarts just for a chance to murder and cannibalize children. While completely inhuman, the Dementors also fit this pretty well, only working for the Ministry of Magic because of the opportunities it gives them to feed off peoples' misery, inevitably joining the forces of evil when they offer more opportunity to cause harm. Old habits die harder than fantastic beasts, which is why Walden McNair made the rather enterprising choice of getting hired by the Ministry as an executioner so that his axe would be felt by animals (at least) with the approval of the magical society this time, which is equal-opportunity enough to have a place even for a bloodthirsty maniacal killer.

Rebelling against their pasts, they decide to protect the colonists instead. Through the rest of the series, they continue to do some mercenary jobs (it's hard to find other sources of revenue when you're a wanted outlaw), but of a less murderous nature. There are several others like them in the galactic underworld as well.

He kills a man by pulling his tongue through a hole in his throat, uses banned nanotech handcuffs that tighten when struggled against to the point of causing severe bleeding, shoots dead Chevette's friend Sammy Sal, and makes it painfully obvious that he's going to rape Chevette when he corners her and Rydell two-thirds of the way through the book, presumably before killing both of them horribly. Ultimately though, his depravity leads to his downfall — in the latter scenario he arrives when the protagonists are both asleep, and could very easily have killed them both while retrieving the glasses, but since he was determined to rape and torture, he waits until they wake up, which allows them to escape.

Vamp from Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty displays a few of these tendencies. He takes on entire squads of Navy SEALs armed with only a large hunting knife, and always kills in a way that ensures maximum bleeding. So he can drink it. Also, Psycho Mantis from Metal Gear Solid explicitly states that he wasn't interested in a revolution, only in killing as many people as he possibly could. Metal Gear Solid, strangely enough, also had a rare protagonist example of this trope, as Liquid Snake mentioned to Solid Snake when atop REX that [Solid Snake] enjoyed all the killing, and mentioned that this was most likely part of the reason he returned to Shadow Moses Island. Meryl also mentioned that Solid Snake also most likely felt alive when people were dying around him based on his answers. The third game has the Fury, a deranged cosmonaut whose life goal seems to be to set the world on fire. The Pain and The Fear probably also count.

Psycho for Hire / int_5dcdb826	comment	The anime Texhnolyze has an unexpected Psycho For Hire in Yoshi who murders innocent people and starts gang wars for the sake of amusement. While he may have an ideological purpose behind it all, it is so obscure that it only makes him look all the more hysterical. It's a rather tragic one: He comes from a world where there are no passions, no one desires or fears anything, and death is just an irrelevant abstraction. Then he comes to Lux and sees people who truly care about living, due to being under a constant threat of violent death. He falls so much in love with this feeling, and thinks that the people of Lux don't appreciate it enough, that he decides to share his own newfound passion with everybody by starting a war that will swallow the entire city, allowing him to witness its overflowing lifeforce in the fullest.

When that fails, Hobgoblin switches sides and kidnaps Harry Osborn for Kingpin, then convinces Osborn to give him a better glider so they can take Fisk down together, only to pull a Starscream, run Fisk out of his own base and keep Harry hostage for himself. Fisk and Osborn are forced to rely on Spider-Man to deal with him — and that's just in his first two episodes.

Her talent constantly tells her the best ways to kill every living thing in her general vicinity, giving her the ability to take on physically stronger opponents, like griffons and dragons, while giving her a very good feeling every time she kills something. But this has also caused her to become an Ax-Crazy Dark Action Girl, whose urge to kill is forever present, whether she wants it to or not, and can not interact with the rest of pony society. After a stent in the Solar special forces, Charisma went rogue and became the dragon to criminal mastermind Max Cash. She's also the Psycho Ex-Girlfriend to Trail Blazer.

Psycho for Hire / int_62570927	comment	Marvel Universe: Madame Hydra/Viper from Captain America might just be the crowning example of this. She's so Ax-Crazy that the Red Skull of all people won't work with her, if only because his actions usually have some kind of purpose, whereas she just likes killing and hurting as many people as possible. Bullseye from Daredevil. In an appearance in Daniel Way's Deadpool comic, he even mentions that he rarely spends the money he makes from his hit jobs. He is actually extremely rich by this point, but rather than use it, he continues to be a hitman because he likes it. The Kingpin will sometimes use a Psycho for Hire to make a mob hit look like a random killing. Once, it worked — but another time, the Psycho for Hire got carried away, and the whole thing was blown. In Born Again, the Kingpin hires two psychopaths at once to draw out Daredevil and hopefully kill him: Nuke, a Super-Soldier driven insane from years of harsh experiments and being pumped full of drugs, and a killer in a Daredevil costume. Nuke is to drop into Manhattan and just start firing his huge gun Betsy, and the other one is supposed to kill Matt Murdock's friends while dressed as Daredevil, framing him for the crime. Deadpool is a shining example of this trope, compounded with being a Cloudcuckoolander. He was once hired to keep Spider-Man distracted. During that time, he tried to blow Spidey up with an exploding pen, blew up his own feet instead (a momentary inconvenience), and challenged Spider-Man to a Your Mom contest. (Apparently, he has a "yo mama" joke so bad that it can kill people.) Ultimately, he stops when the contract ends, leaving Spider-Man just as confused as anyone else who has ever tangled with him. Unsurprisingly, given the Darker and Edgier nature of the series, The Punisher MAX features these characters in droves, the most noticeable being Barracuda and Bullseye. The latter takes this trope even further than his mainstream-universe counterpart does, with his psychotic side being even less picky about the death and destruction caused by carrying out his contracts than in his other incarnations. Psyko from Sleepwalker lives up to his name. A Serial Killer before he got his powers, he would later use them to make everyone around him Brainwashed and Crazy, and Mind Rape Sleepwalker until he nearly drove the alien hero crazy. In the Soviet Super Soldiers one-shot, Firefox is a strong example. "You have come to the Firefox for either one of two reasons, Valentin Shatalov. Either you want to die... or you want someone else to." After being given his assignment, he asks with great interest whether he's allowed to make it "something worth talking about". Sabretooth from X-Men, to the point that even hiring him is dangerous because if his employer pisses him off, he will go after them when he's done with the original task.

In fact, this extends to the rest of the Judge force in his dimension: their recruitment posters actually advertised "Kill anyone you like (within reason)" as a bonus for joining. This is eventually subverted when he makes himself Chief Judge by killing his predecessor, as he considers life in general to be a crime and is thus obsessive in exterminating all of it. They have run a comic strip about Ulysses Sweet in Tharg's Future Shocks. "Psycho for Hire" is practically his job description. However, he's a Heroic Comedic Sociopath, not a straight-up sociopath.

When the rest of the Neo Divine Crusaders get tired of his crap he simply defects to the Shadow Mirrors. He is also the enemy of the Branstein family, having caused the death of Elzam's wife by poisoning her with gas while trying to gas the rest of the colony of Elpis, thus forcing Elzam to kill his already lethally-poisoned wife to stop it. Archibald was actually preceded by Lubikka Hakinnen from SRW Gaiden. Instead of the Bransteins, though, he targeted Tytti, having slaughtered her whole family in front of her eyes. He would've happily done this to other people, but he just takes extra pleasure if the victim is Tytti. When he got hired by the Shutedonian army, he also takes that job happily since it involves killing, and doesn't mind letting out Evil Laughs often. And then, he finally hammers it down in Tytti's breakdowns by killing her would-be-lover Ricardo and inflicted her fear of starting a new relationship.

No one knows where he came from or how he got in prison in the first place, but when the King of Midland announced the creation of the Black Dog Knights, Wyald stepped forward from the assembled criminals and asked to be made leader if he could prove himself the strongest. With the King giving his assent, Wyald proceeded to kill the next-strongest guy in a gruesome and inexplicable way, after which no one dared to challenge his authority. Under Wyald's leadership, the Black Dog Knights quickly became infamous for Rape, Pillage, and Burn, visiting their depravities on the king's subjects as well as the enemies, but because of their military usefulness, the King kept them garrisoned on the frontier, far away from the population and the regular army. Wyald lives by a motto of hedonism, "enjoyment and excitement", which for him includes things like raping a teenage farm girl, chopping her to pieces along with her whole family, and sticking their body parts on pikes. He is also a Bad Boss, forcing his men to throw away their lives in suicidal attacks because they know he will kill them for showing the slightest instinct for self-preservation or hesitating to do whatever he orders, no matter how stupid and unreasonable. The fact that he allowed himself to be imprisoned in the first place and continues to serve the king of Midland despite his monstrous power suggests that he plays along for the fun of it, and he doesn't mind the arrangement as long as he's allowed to rape and slaughter as much as he wants.

His main method of attack/murder is projecting blasts that cause whatever they hit to explode, and he doggedly chases Team Avatar all the way to the Western Air Temple to do the job. In his final episode, Zuko, having undergone a Heelâ€“Face Turn, confronts him during his latest assault and first threatens not to pay, and then offers to pay him double, if he backs off. In response, the Combustion Man attacks him before turning back to the Gaang.

Hawker joined the DC for revenge, Tenzan because he knows his way around a robot's controls. Over the course of repeated and humiliating defeats at the hands of the Hagane and its small squad, including Tempest's "rival" and a girl that looks a bit like Hawker's dead daughter, they each lose sight of many things about life. In the final battles against them, they use powerful Valsion Customs... which serve as the straw that breaks the camel's back and induce complete, psychotic behavior and screaming "DIEDIEDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" at the top of their lungs.

The American assassins were The Brothers, a Terrible Trio Sibling Team contracted with the Skin Devil, allowing them to shapeshift and Kill and Replace their enemies. Believing themselves to be invincible, two of them die in rather hilarious ways while The Baby of the Bunch & Token Good Teammate Aldo barely manages to escape after seeing how hopelessly outmatched they were. The Soviet Union sent Tolka, a trainee Devil Hunter who seeks to kill Denji in order to prove himself to his master and was conditioned to be a sociopath who sees no value in life. The Germans sent "Santa Claus", a sadistic Dirty Old Man who's said to be the worst of the bunch. It's revealed that the old man was just a facade, and the real Santa Claus was Tolka's master who raised him to be a pawn in her plot to kill Makima with killing Denji just being a means to an end. Finally, the Peopleâ€™s Republic of China sent Quanxi, whoâ€™s honestly more of a Punch-Clock Villain - a veteran devil-hunter with a harem of female fiends (all of whom she loves dearly) and a stoic, slightly nihilistic demeanor. Itâ€™s also revealed that sheâ€™s a Weapon Hybrid too, just like Denji and Reze - specifically, the Crossbow Hybrid.

Their sometimes-teammate Wolf is a borderline example, as he takes the same kind of jobs because he enjoys them, but is more of a vicious brute than an outright lunatic. Anton Sevarius is a variation, as a Mad Scientist for hire who isn't a physical threat — but his creations are. Macbeth originally presented himself as one of these to get to the gargoyles, which he thought would get him to Demona.

He's very good at it (though surprisingly rational for someone with that sort of motivation). Ali Al-Saachez of Mobile Suit Gundam 00 comes off as a fusion of Yazan and the above-mentioned Gauron.

Decil Galette of Mobile Suit Gundam AGE is what Yazan and Ali would look like if they were Enfante Terribles. A gleefully Axe-Crazy Cheerful Child, Decil views war as one giant game, and all the soldiers under his command as playthings. This attitude does not improve upon his reaching adulthood, and he now resembles his two inspirations more than ever.

Interestingly, Ilya is almost Good Powers, Bad People, as his power is to put people into a peaceful sleep/killing painlessly, but he's still a skin-crawlingly creepy psycho.

Super Smash Bros. tournaments don't allow people to die, though they still feel pain during the fight, so Sheik uses this to her advantage. She can inflict as much damage as she likes with no fatalities, and it's all allowed in the tournament. Sheik considers Samus her mutual because they're both so similar. Samus has No Social Skills and knows nothing besides violence. She takes pride in hurting others and mocks her fallen opponents. The difference is that Samus has some level of a conscience and is shown battling her confusing emotions.

Psycho for Hire / int_9004922f	comment	Mister Teatime in Hogfather is one of the most infamous examples. A certifiably deranged member of the Guild of Assassins, rather than killing cleanly and dispassionately for payment as the Guild teaches, Teatime views money as a distraction, takes child-like joy in his work and spends his free time thinking of ways to assassinate "imaginary" figures. During one assignment, he nailed his target's dog to the ceiling, murdered the man's defenseless servants, and then made sure his target was dead by checking his breath with a mirror after the man's head was several feet from his body. The leader of the Guild, Lord Downey, who doesn't have morals but does have standards, is so repelled by Teatime that he planned on having him killed until he realized Teatime's corkscrew of a mind might be just the instrument needed when the Guild is commissioned to inhume the Hogfather.

Psycho for Hire / int_95226eb6	comment	Cyberpunk (and occasionally ported over to Shadowrun) has the Cyberpsycho Squads, which are a sort of paramilitary super-SWAT team used to detain (or eliminate) criminals who are modded to the gills with cybernetic implants and have developed 'Cyber-psychosis'. The catch is that Cyberpsycho Squads are basically made up of 'rehabilitated' cyberpsychos themselves; they aren't so much 'given orders' as pointed in a general direction and turned loose. The Cyberpsycho Squad is scary as hell, and for good reason: as a mechanic, they exist basically as GM Fiat for punishing players for going wildly out of control. One of the most prominent examples of this would be Adam Smasher, a Full-Conversion Cyborg under the employ of Arasaka. He's considered so violently psychotic that he's unaffected by the detrimental effects of Cyberpsychosis and has a clause in his contract specifically guaranteeing that he'll only take jobs that ensure maximum collateral damage. Statistically, his Empathy stat isn't even given a proper number and is simply listed as "Yeah, right..."

The twist behind the season featuring the Gentleman is that the killer's really an assassin. However, they murder their targets in the most sadistic ways possible because "it feels fucking fantastic." Her employer, a terminally ill rich man, hired her because she also had experience as a disgraced end of life specialist and he wanted her to euthanize him painlessly before setting her on his family.

They accept anyone willing to kill on command and who has shown at least some skill in doing so. This eclectic mix of talented killers still tends to be very effective at what they do, right up to having assassinated the Emperor of Tamriel. They're joinable in Daggerfall, Oblivion, and Skyrim, and their questlines provide many opportunities for the Player Character to be one of these as well.

Psycho for Hire / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire Many warriors, especially those employed by Tywin Lannister. Specifically, there's the Clegane brothers. The elder brother, Gregor, "The Mountain That Rides," is a hulking horror, driven into a perpetual rage by migraines and painkillers, and spends the vast majority of his time killing and raping his way across the kingdom. The soldiers he surrounds himself with — the Mountain's Men, Raff the Sweetling, Chiswyck, and the Tickler — are of a similar disposition, becoming soldiers so they can loot, kill and rape to their heart's content. Relatively more sympathetic is Sandor Clegane, a brutal thug with some Wangst issues, who insists that all knights are psychos for hire by default, but like to pretend otherwise. He sums this trope up nicely with, "Killing is the sweetest thing there is." Though Sandor actually does go through some character development into a slightly better person. The Brave Companions are an entire sellsword company comprised of these. Initially they work for Tywin Lannister before defecting to Roose Bolton for a better offer. They're initially led by Vargo Hoat, who earned his reputation as "the Crippler" by chopping off captives' hands and feet for his own amusement. The rest of the band consists of a Monster Clown, serial rapists, and child killers. It's telling that the most "sympathetic" member of their group is a Pedophile Priest who rapes and murders boys, but at least feels remorse over it. After Hoat's death, a faction led by Rorge, one of the most Ax-Crazy individuals in the series, goes on a senseless crusade of raping, pillaging, and burning as a band of outlaws. House Bolton starts out as the Stark family's own psycho-for-hire bannermen, which is somewhat interesting as the Starks are generally good guys, and the Boltons are now considered the Token Evil Teammate of the North, due to their fond family history of flaying their enemies alive. Unfortunately for the Starks, the Boltons are The Starscream and betray them at the Red Wedding, and now Roose Bolton is Warden of the North.

They employ seven pirates as privateers, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and let them do whatever they want without so much as keeping tabs on them (one of them tried to amass a zombie army and take over the world, another pulled an Evil Plan to overthrow a country and revive a Forgotten Super Weapon, and the newest one has amassed a massive civilian body count pursuing a dumb vendetta that doesn't help them in the least), and the most likely worst of them is a sadistic psychopath who abandons slave trade because he thinks it's become passe. Among the last one's worst underlings is one of the main antagonists in the Punk Hazard arc; his scheme is basically nukes for sale. It goes without saying that he's in it For the Evulz; his Slasher Smile is more than enough to give that much away. Then there's the Cipher Pol No. 9 assassin squad, who all more or less qualify, but are led by one Rob Lucci, who is just out of his mind and states being able to kill is his reason for being there.

Psycho for Hire / int_a03824e8	comment	The DCU: Batman: The Joker has worked for other villains. Most of them start regretting that as soon they realize why he's the one guy who can keep Batman too busy to go after them. In Infinite Crisis, Alex Luthor deliberately keeps the Joker out of the Society because of this. It turns out that this is actually the worst option when dealing with the Joker. The biggest example is Lobo, a parody of Nineties Anti Heroes whose favorite sport is killing. It's been shown that even hiring Lobo is dangerous. He's killed, and generally destroyed the planet of, most people who've ever hired him. Most recently he was tasked by a god with tracking down the one weapon that could kill said god and returning with it. Upon completing his mission, Lobo immediately killed the god with it. He really should have seen that coming. On the flip side, Lobo always keeps his word and completes the contract to the letter. Meaning that if the contract had said 'not kill me with the weapon', Lobo would have left him alive. But you have to be careful with the words, as shown when he was forced to bring a certain person to Vril Dox only to discover it was his fourth grade teacher, the one person he wanted dead above everyone in the universe: Lobo brought her to Vril Dox alive (and legless), but as soon as Vril Dox said she was in his care Lobo killed her, as Dox had said nothing about leaving her alive after completing the job. Bear in mind that Vril Dox is just about the only person in the universe who Lobo will listen to. Teen Titans: Cheshire qualifies abundantly, at least after her Moral Event Horizon. It doesn't get much more "psycho" than nuking a small country just to prove to the world that you're not bluffing — and laughing while it burns. Cheshire originally wasn't this, instead being violent to degrees, but eventually Characterization Marches On. The original Terra from The Judas Contract. In addition to being The Mole sent by Deathstroke to destroy the Titans from the inside out, Terra is explicitly psychopathic, and she hates "goody-two-shoes" for no apparent reason. However, a future retcon implies that she was drugged by Deathstroke into becoming evil. Red Robin gets caught up in an international assassination competition where all of the many competitors fit the bill. He manages to shut it down but has to fake his own death to do so and is almost killed and raped by some of the contestants along the way. Wonder Woman Vol 2 villain Cyborgirl chose to use her newfound gifts and power after getting lifesaving cybernetic implants for financial gain, she was already a jerk who happily manipulated others to gain drugs, but she'd never had the power to act as a killer for hire before.

Psycho for Hire / int_a0bb982	comment	Burke from Blow Out is hired by a conspiracy to stop a governor from running for president. He accomplishes this by shooting out the tire on his car, causing it to crash, killing him and nearly killing the call girl he was with. Then, to eliminate the witness and throw off suspicion for the reasons behind her death, he poses as a serial killer and starts murdering women that look like her. The kicker is that Burke wasn't hired to do any of this. He was just supposed to blackmail the candidate with pictures of himself and the call girl, not kill him, and even after the conspiracy fires him for his actions, he still goes through with his serial killer plan. Though Burke tries to maintain an effect of a professional just trying to accomplish a job, it's clear he's only using that as an excuse to act on his deranged desires.

He's also one of those psychos who actually has some degree of intelligence, considering he and Pandora knew from the start that the Game of Destiny was a complete (and intentional) farce (Unlike every other villain character in the series except Albert). He even tried to kill Master Albert in front of the hero, in a betrayal on the level of Kefka... Except that one didn't quite work out, since Master Albert happens to be a Magnificent Bastard. Had he succeeded, he and Pandora had full intentions to wipe out and destroy everything for no justifiable reason except revenge against Albert (Destroying the world is kinda going WAY beyond revenge anyway). It's safe to say Prometheus had planned simply to destroy the other Mega Men and, most likely, Model W as part of his scheme, but he went batshit by his own madness after losing to Grey/Ashe.

After being discharged, he became a Professional Killer. Sometimes, he would take extra pay for the chance to torture the targets if that's what the clients wanted. He's not too crazy to be effective at his job, but there's no doubt that he's a violent and bloodthirsty maniac.

While officially a secret police force, they're actually a group of sociopathic rapists and/or murderers (Izou considers the killing aspect to be Better than Sex) who kill hundreds of Imperial citizens both For the Evulz and to draw Night Raid out. They get away with this because their leader, Syura, is the Prime Minister's son. The only one who doesn't quite fit the bill is Dorothea, who drains the blood of victims to maintain her youth and thus has a practical purpose to the murder, and even she was willing to indulge in the raping part after getting literal Bloodlust from draining Tatsumi's blood.

We eventually root for Hyde, his love for Mina making him (almost) a Sociopathic Hero, but the fact the government is delighted to have an invisible treacherous rapist on its books is troubling to say the least. You might also count Nemo but at least there's method to his madness. Nemo actually seems fairly emotionally stable, if incredibly pissed off and bitter, at first. Then, at the end of the first book, he busts out the automatic harpoon gun. Quartermain points out that Hyde is actually better than Nemo, because you can reason with Hyde. Their French counterparts, Les Hommes Mysterioux, are this almost to a man, consisting almost entirely of characters from French pulp fiction such as The Nyctalope, Zenith The Albino, and Fantomas. The only mildly heroic member of this group is Gentleman Thief ArsÃ¨ne Lupin.

Psycho for Hire / int_b0028436	comment	JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Dio Brando in Part 3 is extremely fond of hiring psychopaths in his league who are just as bat-shit insane, or even worse, than himself. Examples include Gray Fly, Devo, J. Geil, Steely Dan, Mannish Boy, Alessi and Pet Shop. Part 4 has Anjuro "Angelo" Katagiri, a surprisingly horrifying Starter Villain hired by Keicho Nijimura specifically because of his depravity. Later on in the part is Terunosuke Miyamoto, whom Yoshihiro Kira hires to kidnap Josuke, his family, and his friends, and he agrees, all because he loves the thrill of exploiting people's fears. Part 5 has Cioccolata who is easily the worst in this spectrum even considering all the other parts in the series. He is the only one who joined Passione as a chance to kill and torture people for his own amusement and goes on a completely motiveless killing spree after being dispatched against Bucciarati's group, endangering the lives of both innocent civilians and even other members of the organization in the process. And even Diavolo hates this guy! Part 6 has Lang Rangler and KenzÅ�, hired by Pucci to stop Jolyne from obtaining her father's memory disc. Lang is a slightly downplayed example given his initially subdued demeanor, but he is also an unhinged psychopath with a Hair-Trigger Temper who was imprisoned for stabbing his college professor 69 times in a rage, and his preferred killing method is trapping his victims in a vacuum space which causes their heads to explode. KenzÅ� is even worse in this regard, being a former cult leader imprisoned for manipulating his followers into burning themselves alive and brutally kills dozens of inmates in his vicinity while waiting to pursue Jolyne as a demonstration.

Specifically, when the Runner thinks his wife is having an affair, he first tracks down who he thinks she is with, only for the teenager to not only be taken into protection by the police but is the wrong man, after trashing his house he beats and rapes his wife. From season 2, A Tale of Two Cities, Christopher Dale Flannery (who was also depicted in Blue Murder) was certifiably off his rocker. He aims to be the biggest killer in Australia. He takes credit for the killing of horse race robber Ray Chuck before earning his reputation by going on a killing spree for the highest bidder. He eventually takes out contracts for racing identity George Freeman, before it is realised the hitman is too dangerous to live. Experts say the real-life Flannery was either accurately portrayed or a lot worse.

Creators of Slaanesh who are of a martial bent also fall squarely into this trope (and usually supplement it with playing the Mad Artist in their spare time as well) because the only missing ingredient for their eternal youth is entertainment. The Dark Eldar also sometimes can actually be up for hire. They kill/enslave/unspeakable act your enemy, get paid, then horrify you. All Chaos Space Marines actually. In every edition, they only get crazier. Ciaphas Cain (HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!) lampshades it on being informed that a Chaos army is believed to have CSMs as advisors since he can't imagine them giving any advice other than "kill them all". The barbaric Orks occasionally act as mercenaries for other races, particularly clanless Freebooter bands or Orks of the culturally contaminated (they wear uniforms and use camouflage!) Blood Axe Clan. This is generally a dumb move on the part of their employers, as the Orks prefer to be paid in weaponry that they will inevitably end up using against them. Kroot kindreds, when they're not fighting for the Tau Empire, roam the galaxy looking for mercenary work. Though not technically sociopaths, their penchant for eating enemy dead as they seek evolutionary upgrades can strain relations amongst their comrades. The Kroot are actually a subversion in that they are one of the least evil races in the Galaxy.

In a game chock full of mercenaries with "interesting" personalities, we start with the Scout, an aggressive twerp who badmouths everyone he comes across and enjoys beating up others with his bat. The Soldier is a cross of a Drill Sergeant Nasty and Cloud Cuckoolander with a bazooka. The Heavy cheerfully laughs as he mows people down and converses with his miniguns and things he pulls out of a lunchbox. The Engineer gets a little too jolly when his machines kill people. The Demoman is a Scottish drunkard with a propensity for blowing things up. The Sniper thinks he's a utter professional but he enjoys his work and spits out insults far too much for that. The Medic sees healing as unrewarding in comparison to harming others and is morbidly fascinated with human suffering. The Spy is an actual professional who nonetheless mocks his victims with a jaunty cackle. Finally, the Pyro is an Obliviously Evil pyromaniac who legitimately doesn't know that they're killing anyone and thinks they're instead spreading rainbows and joy, though this doesn't make them any less enthusiastic about getting out there into a place that they do know harms them to spread that fire around. Of course, the casual attitude towards killing is more reasonable when you remember everyone respawns. However, some classes such as Soldier however are known to have killed people besides the mercenaries, who wouldn't respawn. Saxton Hale, the local Arms Dealer, exploits this clientele. According to him, the world's best mercenaries (not the main characters) are so insane that they don't care about money at all — which is why he sells his best weapons for obscene amounts of money.

It doesn't get much more "psycho" than nuking a small country just to prove to the world that you're not bluffing — and laughing while it burns. Cheshire originally wasn't this, instead being violent to degrees, but eventually Characterization Marches On. The original Terra from The Judas Contract. In addition to being The Mole sent by Deathstroke to destroy the Titans from the inside out, Terra is explicitly psychopathic, and she hates "goody-two-shoes" for no apparent reason. However, a future retcon implies that she was drugged by Deathstroke into becoming evil.

He is actually extremely rich by this point, but rather than use it, he continues to be a hitman because he likes it. The Kingpin will sometimes use a Psycho for Hire to make a mob hit look like a random killing. Once, it worked — but another time, the Psycho for Hire got carried away, and the whole thing was blown. In Born Again, the Kingpin hires two psychopaths at once to draw out Daredevil and hopefully kill him: Nuke, a Super-Soldier driven insane from years of harsh experiments and being pumped full of drugs, and a killer in a Daredevil costume. Nuke is to drop into Manhattan and just start firing his huge gun Betsy, and the other one is supposed to kill Matt Murdock's friends while dressed as Daredevil, framing him for the crime.

Luca Blight from Suikoden II fits the standard archetype, but does his work strictly pro bono and is, in fact, the Big Bad. He is widely regarded as one of the evilest, cruelest, and most sadistic villains in video game history. This scene makes this trait abundantly clear. Childerich from Suikoden V is also an example, which has garnered criticism of his character because of his resemblance to Luca, right down to using (as a shout-out) his infamous "Die pigs!!" line when killing people.

He's his own bot now, he doesn't want to hire himself out to anyone, just kill as many people as possible in all the painful ways he can come up with.

Mal hired Jayne by offering more than his previous crew, whom he promptly betrayed and shot. Textbook Token Evil Teammate. Inverted in "The Train Job", in which the psycho (Niska) hires them! Niska's first Dragon, Crow, is a straight example, a Psycho Knife Nut who shares his boss's love of hurting people. After the Serenity crew default on their job because the target turns out to be medical supplies people in Paridiso badly need, Crow forgoes Mal's offer of simply returning the advance money Niska had paid them and opts to threaten him instead (while captive and being made to stand next to the ship's turbine) by saying he'll return and "the last thing [Mal] will ever see is [his] blade". Mal's response is a small "Darn" before kicking him into the turbine. The next captive henchman lined up there is much more agreeable. Jubal Early from the episode "Objects in Space". At first, he just seems like a somewhat quirky and oddly philosophical Bounty Hunter, but that goes out the window when he casually threatens to rape Kaylee as an intimidation tactic. A nutjob who used to torture animals as a child and terrified his own mother, he tries to insist that hurting people is simply a necessary part of the job. However, as mentioned in the page quote, River's psychoanalysis reveals Early became a bounty hunter expressly so he could dominate and hurt people for a living.

Psycho for Hire / int_ef076a36	comment	Star Trek: Voyager: In the episode "Living Witness", the entire crew of the starship Voyager are portrayed like this in a falsified historical representation on an alien planet. Now "the warship Voyager", they were hired by a race called the Vaskans to defeat their enemy the Kyrians. The crew's main mission is still to get back to Earth, but they get so much fun out of killing that they happily torture prisoners to death, shoot unarmed people, and commit genocide.

Vain to the point of insanity (driven by the murder of his mother), he harbors an extreme vendetta against all things ugly as well as anything that could be more beautiful than him. He is a powerful ally of M. Bison due to his unpredictable and sadistic behavior.

Not only does he kill people in a variety of interesting ways, he rigs cameras to photograph his victims at the moment of their death, ostensibly to prove to the person/people who hired him that victim X is really, really dead (for a while, he even sent copies to the authorities "just for kicks"). He is also practically unkillable.

Psycho for Hire / int_f301fd1a	comment	Karasuba from Sekirei is the only consistent member during all three incarnations of the Discipline Squad, because she genuinely LOVES killing. That she gets the perks of being MBI's top enforcer is only icing on the very bloody cake. She combines this with the Blood Knight since the stronger the opponent she faces, the more fun she'll have killing them. While Minaka is the more traditional, scheming Big Bad that controls the Sekirei Plan......she could be considered the true villain of the series, having been established as the Final Boss from the beginning. Her ultimate goal is to use the power gained from victory to destroy the world.

Psycho for Hire / int_f3368832	comment	Buffyverse: Marcus, Spike's hired torture expert, from the Angel episode "In the Dark". Spike thinks he's averting a sudden but inevitable betrayal by hiring someone solely interested in torture and indifferent to the Gem of Amara but fails to realize that Marcus quite naturally knows that a ring that makes vampires invincible will let him commit greater acts of torture (not to mention pedophilia). Spike promptly gets betrayed. Also, Angelus himself acts as a reluctant Psycho For Hire to Jasmine for a while in Season 4 after he loses his soul and she threatens to restore it. In Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Spike himself is introduced as a Psycho For Hire working with the remnants of the Master's followers — the Badass Longcoat from out of town who maims for fun and just drops by to kill the hero and torture her boyfriend to death. However, it takes less than an episode for him to decide that he'd have more fun if he took charge and dispose of the "Annoying" (Anointed) One. Then there's Faith, who acts in this way for a time as the evil Mayor's enforcer (and briefly as an assassin for Wolfram & Hart, which, because the target is Angel, is really an attempt to commit Suicide by Cop) after a Faceâ€“Heel Turn brought on by accidentally killing a random human while fighting vampires a bit too recklessly in an alley and suppressing all her guilt over it. Sorcerer Ethan Rayne in the Buffy episode "Band Candy", in which Mr. Trick has contracted him to cause a distraction by making all the adults in town act like teens while the Mayor performs a ritual sacrifice.

He doesn't have to kill that many people to do his job, but he enjoys it so much. Simon is a terrorist for hire who committed the various acts that Michael is accused of (resulting in his burn notice) while in the employ of Management and whoever he works for.

Psycho for Hire / int_f6e5bd7f	comment	Nathan Wallace from Repo! The Genetic Opera works as a Repo Man, a legal assassin hired by Gene Co to repossess organs with surgical precision from people who are delinquent in their payments. He's also a tragic example of this trope since he was manipulated into becoming a Repo Man by Gene Co's founder after the latter murdered Nathan's wife. While Nathan can become a sadistic, psychopathic killer with the flick of a scalpel, the Repo Man persona almost seems like a split personality, and off the clock, he's a loving father who's consumed by guilt and self-loathing.

Psycho for Hire / int_f8705c18	comment	Hellsing has Jan Valentine; being a minor villain didn't seem to matter for him at all as his part of attacking the Hellsing manor was mostly for the fun of it. He threatens to rape, kill, then rape Integra again, massacres everything in front of him, and dies flipping off the cast. While betraying his bosses. Not even during his fiery self-destruction does he stop laughing maniacally. Alucard himself qualifies big-time — he's a vampire, by his own admission worse than what he fights, a nightmarish sadist who loves to terrify and then rip his enemies apart (frequently eating them) with totally overwhelming power, and he's got an impressive Evil Laugh of his own. But he's an unusual example in that he works for the good guys, and that he is unambiguously, absolutely loyal to his boss Integra. Which just means he massacres threats to her with even greater glee.

She's not averse to the occasional random victim if she's feeling bored or irritated, though... Justine and Juliette, Nicky Agnelli's enforcers, also qualify.

There's Fletcher Nix, a Dixie mafia hitman who forces his victims to play a sadistic game before he kills them. There's the late Tommy Bucks, who put dynamite in a man's mouth to prove a point. And of course there's Wynn Duffy, Dixie Mafia middleman and certifiable psychopath who is purported to have once sewed a man's face to a soccer ball, though Character Development sets in after he spends a season or two working with some particularly Ax-Crazy individuals that considerably mellows him out, to the point he ends up being considered the Dixie Mafia's voice of reason. Apparently, he realized being a psychopath wasn't a very lucrative job position (in fact, mellowing out resulted in him stepping up in the criminal world).

Psycho for Hire / int_fb8549c	comment	Deadpool is a shining example of this trope, compounded with being a Cloudcuckoolander. He was once hired to keep Spider-Man distracted. During that time, he tried to blow Spidey up with an exploding pen, blew up his own feet instead (a momentary inconvenience), and challenged Spider-Man to a Your Mom contest. (Apparently, he has a "yo mama" joke so bad that it can kill people.) Ultimately, he stops when the contract ends, leaving Spider-Man just as confused as anyone else who has ever tangled with him.

Psycho for Hire / int_fcf34eec	comment	Full Metal Panic!: Gauron actually had to be restrained from killing the pilot on an airplane he was hijacking, even when none of the other terrorists could fly the plane. He's been shown to also shoot and kill his employers when they say things that irritate him. Furthermore, while utilizing a Lambda Driver seems to drive another terrorist into a kind of delusional psychosis, Gauron doesn't seem at all changed by his experiences with it, suggesting he's already that crazy. Add in his intentionally brutal execution and gruesome display of Sousuke's comrades just to attempt to "wake up" the perfect killing machine he remembers Sousuke being, and the psychosis is rather clear. However, his sheer personality while doing this (such as utilizing his infamous "bang" finger pose to trigger his AS's Lambda Driver) have had some people torn between whether he's in Moral Event Horizon territory or an utter badass. Gates, Gauron's replacement in Amalgam's antagonist role from The Second Raid, is also like this, with a Running Gag being his random killing off of his own men for any number of reasons. Also, his last words before his death? "I could use a haircut" while his mech is being vaporized around him by the Arbalest's Lambda Driver. If not for his apparent combat skills, one'd wonder why Amalgam'd hire someone MORE unstable than Gauron. It's an example of Adaptation Distillation. In the original novel, he was a nondescript goon who didn't even have a name and was known only by his Amalgam codename — Mr. Kalium. The whole psycho thing was invented by the animation team.
