A dangerous or at least unsettling villain with a childlike nature, which creates a dissonance between innocence and savagery. Such characters can become rich sources of Nightmare Fuel, especially if their childishness is never explained. Contrary to the term, many examples are not necessarily psychopaths in the clinical sense. Misaimed Fandom may not be out of the question, either; sometimes the character's more "Moe" attributes will be picked up on and subjected to Flanderization. The exact extent of the character's childishness will vary, and in general Psychopathic Manchildren can come in several varieties, with possible overlap. Such a character may: Be a big Dumb Muscle, often mentally challenged, that operates under someone else's direction. This type may be the most common, and also the most likely to play to the audience's sympathy. Expect them to try to Pet the Dog, often with disastrous results. Could be a subversion of Dumb Is Good. Seem superficially powerful and cruel, but have very childish or simplistic goals, motivations, or worldviews. Has a tendency to overlap with The Hedonist (and indeed that trope is commonplace with this one). Usually extremely unscrupulous, vindictive, irresponsible, and vengeful, and particularly likely to view consequences as a score to settle. It's All About Me is a core character trait: they want what they want when they want it, and if you're in their way, you either get out or suffer the consequences. Actually possess a lot of power, intelligence, and/or prestige, but also have some childish qualities or behaviors, to fit in with a certain aspect of the story being told, or else advertise that there is something seriously wrong with them, to make them creepier. These are most likely to be a story's Big Bad. These flaws are also often Fatal Flaws, and will be a meaningful factor in why what should have been successful plans fail, or why they walk into something that more sane and/or mature villains would have avoided. This one is a literal example: Appear cute and harmless on the surface, but actually be this trope. Especially common with female examples, because of the stereotype. Be subject to a personal variation of Values Dissonance where violent, savage actions are viewed by the character in question in the same light as regular play is viewed by most real children. This variant is often an especially strong source of Nightmare Fuel due to the uncanny dissonance between their childish demeanor and the viciousness of their actions. Be completely or largely inexplicable, and the discrepancy between the different parts of their personality Played for Laughs. Have a genuine medical disorder, such as Narcissistic Personality Disorder or (more commonly) Antisocial Personality Disorder. What makes this character stand out is that he is The Sociopath in that he is mostly incapable of feeling empathy, shame, or remorse, but unlike other sociopaths, his mental immaturity prevents him from even imitating emotions or indeed even realizing why he takes his desires for granted and fails to even superficially consider why others would disagree or why he isn't entitled to everything. The more charismatic type is excepted from this, of course, though it usually still shows up in some fashion; these types are often impulsive or prone to abandoning plans for stupid reasons, and may have trouble grasping cause and effect. Whichever version these types of characters qualify as, often they are not fully aware of how nasty their actions actually are. In some cases (though not all), a Heel Realization may cause the character to develop into a better person. A more innocent or well-intentioned example may be a Noble Demon. Unlike the more benign Manchild who is presented as virtually Always Male, this can appear in either gender. One way to use this character is to face him off against a jaded, cynical, or shady Anti-Hero, to play with traditional hero-villain relationships by making the villain more innocent than the hero (at least in theory). (Easier if he's a major villain in his own right.) Another interesting twist is to make this character the Designated Hero and match him with an Affably Evil villain. Most of the time, this character trope has a Hair-Trigger Temper and is prone to Disproportionate Retribution because of it. If a hero is contrasted with this type of villain, it's a case of Childish Villain, Mature Hero. When one of these is running a country or occupying a similar position of authority, you have The Caligula. The grown-up equivalent of Creepy Child and the near-inversion of Enfante Terrible. Often an enemy of a Sociopathic Hero, though the two aren't mutually exclusive (and tend to overlap quite a bit), and contrast with the typically more benign Manchild. See also Cute and Psycho and Ping Pong Naïveté. Related to, but distinct from, Kids Are Cruel and Teens Are Monsters. Can and often does overlap with Immortal Immaturity and even Immortality Immorality. noreallife |

Caillou The Grownup from AOK animation features the titular character of Caillou as a 22-year-old manchild who still acts like a small boy living with his parents, refusing to act responsible and get a job. He is also very short-tempered and threatens to physically harm his parents if they make him do something he doesn't want to do, and he gleefully admits he purposely makes his parents' lives a living hell. | |

Cobalt from Wolf Song: The Movie and oh boy where do we start? He is hotheaded, lashes out at his own subordinates, ragequits whenever it becomes obvious to him that he is losing a fight and violently attacks anyone who dare point out the previous point to him. He also has a highly inflated ego and whenever it gets harmed, it is a certainty violence and sometimes even death may follow whoever harmed him, although he can and does also pull off brutal attacks unprovoked from time to time. The only reason he hasn’t rebelled against the Death Alpha is because he is too scared to do so, but it’s largely due to these antics of his that he has become a fan favourite among viewers | |

Sluggy Freelance: Reakk: Even though he's a demon who eats people's souls, it's hard not to like the dimwitted little guy. Oasis, with her underdeveloped personality and sadistic fondness for killing. Bun-bun described her as a "demented toddler", and while she's theoretically opposed to killing innocents, once she eliminates someone from that category, she's willing to do things such as cut their ribs out one at a time out of curiosity while they're still alive. Agent Gnaaaw, a young woman possessed by a brutish demon, is childishly confused about the distinction between liking someone as a person and enjoying eating them. |

Poor, poor A.J. Lee. She was never the same after Daniel Bryan publicly dumped her (although that blow to the skull she took from The Big Show when he nearly broke her neck during a title match with Bryan might also have been a factor), and she quickly descended into a morass of self-pity and highly erratic behavior that eventually turned dangerous. Among her frightening deeds are making sexual advances toward every man she comes across, wearing a red leather mask similar to Kane's, putting both Bryan and CM Punk through a table for no apparent reason, and...skipping around girlishly in short shorts and a bikini top, although her skipping around during a tag match seemed so out there that even Kane told her that she was too crazy even by his standards. | |

8-Bit Theater: Black Mage is a rare example of a "heroic" in that he is intelligent and relatively well-put-together, but takes a psychotic, child-like glee from hurting close friends and innocent people for little reason more than the amusement it causes him. His tantrums tend to devolve rather quickly into childish whining as well. Fighter generally enjoys beating the living shit out of people, but is quite friendly and rather... slow. |

RWBY: Although he generally communicates in a verbose and melodramatic manner akin to an actor on a theatre stage, Tyrian Callows has a very infantile emotional dependence on Salem. He regards her as a 'goddess' and is desperate to please her. When he fails to complete his task, he initially cowers fawning madly to himself that Salem will forgive him. When he reaches Salem, he crawls towards her, begging for forgiveness. When Salem gently, but coldly, tells him that he has disappointed her, he dissolves into sobs of despair that attract a Beowolf. Tyrian then takes out his despair on the Grimm, slashing it over and over until his sobs turn into maniacal laughter; Cinder witnesses his entire breakdown, and can only watch in open-mouthed horror. Neo is a Cute But Psycho Dark Action Girl who is in her late twenties but often acts like an overgrown schoolgirl while doing horrific things. Besides retaining some childish mannerisms (skipping, taunting, treating her battles and crimes like they're fun games), she is deeply selfish and unhealthily dependent on her Living Emotional Crutch Roman Torchwick, swiftly spiraling out of control once he dies. Perhaps the best example of this is her mad tea party in "Tea Amongst Terrible Troubles", where she physically and emotionally torments Ruby into suicide in the guise of a tea party where all her dead friends taunt her, grinning like a little girl about to get ice cream while claiming she's going to enjoy watching her break. In "Of Solitude and Self", getting slammed with all her repressed regrets via a magical Emotion Bomb leads to the first bit of emotional maturity she's ever shown, finally letting Roman go and deciding to reincarnate into a new person. |

The title character from Lizzie is in her thirties, but often acts like a teenager, being prone to fits of temper and having a rather immature and simplistic outlook on the world. This is partially because of her sheltered upbringing, and partially because she's been abused and raped by her father since childhood. His control over her is the only life she's ever known. When she finally reaches her Rage Breaking Point, the consequences are... messy. To say the least. | |

Quaetro Blitz from Tower of God is Axe-Crazy with fire magic — and mainly thinks it's a lot of fun. His Establishing Character Moment is when he chases Wangnan because he reminds him of a beloved pet chick he used to have when he was little ("Axe" is not the only kind of crazy he is), but when Wangnan tries to invoke a kind of Morality Pet thing based on this to make him act nicely, it turns out he killed the chick too. | |

Homestuck: Lord English, despite being the untouchable master of Weird Time Shit, is still the same surly Jerkass he was when he was young. Explained in-universe as the result of him putting a hit out on the dream self of Calliope, his sister/good personality, instead of doing a Split-Personality Takeover as is normal for their species. Without her he was unable to mature properly, and we later his adult form (which always looked different from adult Cherubs, most noticeably in that he had no wings) isn't really an adult at all, but rather Caliborn fused with a few other characters, most notably the muscular Arquiusprite. It was his physique that made Caliborn appear as an adult. Spades Slick Played for Laughs. All aboard the idiot wagon! |

In the Agents of Cracked webseries on Cracked.com, this is Michael Swaim all the way. He's a Depraved Extreme Omnisexual and Idiot Savant with a cheerful "just for fun" attitude who kidnaps schizophrenic women as his "wives." Reversed in Cracked's other content, where Swaim is a polite android, while D.O.B. and Brockway have the drug-fueled, destructive benders. | |

The Order of the Stick Thog is a half-orc fighter/barbarian with extremely violent tendencies, a sunny disposition, and an Intelligence score that's probably no higher than 5. Thog is probably the only person alive who gets along equally well with Elan and Nale. Elan and Thog bond over the "Manchild" part, and Nale appreciates the "Psychopathic" part. Though more intelligent than Thog, Nale himself falls into this trope once he stabs his own brother simply for not wanting to join his group. Xykon, the Big Bad, an epic-level sorcerer who is trying to take over the world more or less For the Evulz. The closest he comes to an explanation is that he doesn't want anyone, even the gods, to be able to tell him what to do. Belkar Bitterleaf, who sorts the world into people he wants to stab, people he can't (yet) stab, and people he finds gratifying in the moment — and the categories overlap. Remember how Elan used to be a benign Manchild? Well, his father General Tarquin devolves into an evil version of this once his Villainous Breakdown really starts kicking in and he vows to kill all of Elan's friends (and cut off his hand) just to get him to finally follow his narrative plan. |

Schlock of Schlock Mercenary manages to combine this with Sergeant Rock to make for one dangerous blob of ambulatory goo. He's childish, violent, loves Stuff Blowing Up, can and will eat anything he can fit in his mouth, (including people) and the idea of having his hand-held rotary cannon effectively turned into a personal artillery field piece rigged to fire grenade rounds gives him a gleeful expression like a kid on Christmas. Oh, and for a brief period he was Dual Wielding sawed off starship cannons. He's by no means stupid, proving on several occasions to be a cunning tactician and combat leader, but his Blood Knight tendencies and immaturity guarantees he'll never be promoted above sergeant. And so long as he gets let off his leash to indulge in a bit of ultra-violence he's probably ok with that. | |

The Nostalgia Critic is a like a twelve-year-old boy with no supervision and a gun and you get the idea. The Nostalgia Chick. You get the impression sometimes that she genuinely doesn't know why Nella would be pissed off about cameras placed in her bedroom. And there's no guilt involved either. Elisa's characters Dr. Tease and The Makeover Fairy both enjoy torturing people through science and makeovers far too much. Genki Girls Allison Pregler and Pushing Up Roses occasionally wander into this trope when their excitement gets a touch too extreme. |

They're such immature, comically inept little guys that they'd count as Ineffectual Sympathetic Villains if not for their rare moments of competence at murdering innocent noncombatants. In fact, each of the goblinoid races in Pathfinder (goblins, hobgoblins and bugbears) are meant to represent a different kind of evil and the little buggers represent childish random malice incarnate. | |

Lawler of White Noise could be considered this. He's a skilled, ruthless, cheerfully sadistic operative who's obviously quite a few bananas short of a bunch. Yet he has a child-like unquestioning devotion to his boss, and spends his spare time having fun by drawing all over his hands. | |

One of the most frightening and powerful incarnations of this trope is seen in the Dungeons & Dragons Demon Lord Kostchtchie, who rules a whole layer of the abyss based solely on sheer power and child like rage. It helps that he's secretly a pawn to Iggwilv, but still, most Demon Lords can't rise to the position, let alone hold onto it, without having shades of the Magnificent Bastard. | |

Gyakuten Kenji 2: Blaise Debeste has a penchant for acting like a petty teenage bully, excessive weepiness, playing with his lighter like an entranced child and other bouts of general immaturity, to contrast with his kid who tries (and fails) to act more mature than he really is. The psychopathic part comes from the fact he's unnecessarily creepy about it all, is terribly corrupt, believes the truth is something he decides, and has killed several people, including his wife by implication, to cover for his crimes. | |

Lucius the Eternal, in Horus Heresy material, is extremely childish, selfish and petulant. He betrays the Loyalists at Isstvan III not because of personal ambition or some epic injustice, but because they don't like him as much as Saul Tarvitz, the man who saved all their lives by bringing a warning. He has a great degree of personal skill but absolutely no personal maturity. Didn't stop him from becoming the Champion of Slaanesh, exulting in causing and receiving pain. | |

Dragon Ball Abridged: Nappa acts like a kid. A giant, murderous kid. Freeza comes off as intelligent and cool-headed at first, but when it comes down to it he's really more like a bored rich kid who gets his entertainment from killing innocent people. As he loses more of his cool, his immaturity shows. Vegeta, who became a Super Saiyan by throwing a tantrum and says "Mineminemineminemine..." whenever he wants something. Of course, it makes sense considering what Nappa said about why he is a Psychopathic Manchild. Cell, much like Freeza, is a genocidal sadist with the temperament and mannerisms of a teenager, which makes sense given his Imperfect Form is more or less analogous to adolescence/late childhood. |

Girl Genius: Generally speaking, Sparks tend to go all giddy at the thought of something "cool", even if — especially if — it's horrifying or stupid. Even the heroes have a bit of this tendency, though a big difference between them and the villains is that heroic Sparks at least understand the concepts of self-control and empathy. Villainous Sparks tend to not be hindered by such things. Case in point: Agatha's ancestors, the Old Heterodynes. They programmed the Castle Heterodyne (their Supervillain Lair) with an AI system that mirrors their own personality, and the Castle is more or less a sociopathic Troll. Plus, they dubbed their tiger-like killer robots as "Fun-Sized Mobile Agony and Death Dispensers", and those old enough to remember their reigns note their dumber ideas: Among the things created by the Old Heterodynes is "the Beast of the Rails", a giant evil train who generally comes across as a Spoiled Brat. It's implied it's personality is based on that of it's creator. Lucrezia Mongfish, yet another Spark and also Agatha's mother, seems like she never grew out of her Bratty Teenage Daughter phase and acts like everyone else exists to serve her (and with slaver wasps, seeks to make that a reality). Also when not angry, she often acts like a giddy little kid and (apparently) has an obsession with chocolate. A non-Spark example is Bangladesh DuPree, the Perky Female Minion of Baron Klaus Wulfenbach ... except the usual dynamic is played around with as Klaus is an Anti-Villain and Bang is a Psycho for Hire he employs. In the rare times when Klaus gives her permission to kill before asking questions, Bang acts like it's her birthday. |

Commander Kitty has Zenith, who, while very effective at creating Body Horror and a would-be Galactic Conqueror, and far from stupid, has approximately the personality of a self-obssessed Bratty Teenage Daughter: she's childishly jealous of her perceived rivals ("She gets her own button an' everything!"), insists that creating a perfected Mix-and-Match Critters Flesh Golem will advance her agenda when she really just wants a boyfriend, is afraid of bugs, etc. This doesn't last forever... unfortunately. | |

Red vs. Blue: Felix has no impulse control and a gigantic temper, often behaving like a mean-spirited, bratty toddler and prone to throwing tantrums when he doesn't get his way and when his pride is bruised. This probably has a lot to do with the fact he's an actual psychopath. Temple often acts like a teenager pretending to be a villain rather than an actual villain. He's actually a surprisingly tragic case, since he was a mature Nice Guy prior to having his best friend murdered in front of him by Freelancers and subsequently finding out he and his friends, alongside countless others, were used as Cannon Fodder, which drove him completely over the edge. Downplayed by Zero. He isn't outwardly childish, but he's ultimately shown to be an entitled, insecure brat whose crimes are all the result of him throwing a giant tantrum over not getting to lead the original Shatter Squad and his need to prove how much of a badass he is to everyone. |

In Alfred's Playhouse, Alfred Alfer has a Split Personality. Regular Alfred Alfer, is a manchild trying to repress memories of sexual abuse by imagining himself in the titular Playhouse whenever he was being abused or having a flashback. The psychopathic personality is Dictator Pickles, who is the part of Alfred's personality who had to take the abuse when Alfred was imagining himself in the Playhouse, and is now angry and vengeful. He wants to Take Over the World, hates Alfred, and shows no remorse for what he does. | |

Helluva Boss: Most of the cast save for Octavia since she is an actual teenager and does not demonstrate violently destructive immaturity unlike her parents and IMP. One poignant example being both Blitzo and Verosika causing mayhem to a beach over their petty gripes and act like high-schoolers that didn't grow up. |

The Nostalgia Chick. You get the impression sometimes that she genuinely doesn't know why Nella would be pissed off about cameras placed in her bedroom. And there's no guilt involved either.

Lately Liam "Brook" Brooks has shown signs of being one of these after having some Sanity Slippage which resulted in Ax-Crazy tendencies. |

Pretty Pink Ponytails from Angel of Death is a twenty-year-old woman who has a high-pitched voice, wears clothes made for small children (they're cut apart, and have extra fabric added to them.) She skips everywhere and loves to sing nursery rhymes. She also seems to enjoy torturing people and often describes things like death how a little girl would, despite seeming to comprehend these things fully. She also uses brightly colored handguns, and loves explosions. It's not clear if she really thinks she's a little girl, feels compelled to act like a little girl, or is just taking on the persona of a little girl. If the latter is the case, then she seems to keep up the act 24/7, as she's never been seen out of character, even in private conversations with her brother. |
