Sociopathic Soldier	comment	The grunt version of Insane Admiral (and sometimes Colonel Kilgore or General Ripper). Often people below the rank of Sergeant are all around assholes who plunder, rape, and massacre civilians, or brutally torture and murder the hero's comrades, making killing them less guilt-causing. These generally come in four flavors: The Jingo: This guy is swept up in Patriotic Fervor or similar and is doing it because they're convinced their cause gives them the right to be as brutal as they please (racism, fantastic or otherwise, might be involved, or they may have bought in to the rhetoric so much that they genuinely do not see the opposition as people). Particularly likely to target civilians, especially if he just lost a battle buddy, in the belief that supporting the obviously morally wrong enemy is cause enough to be punished. The Psychopath: The Ax-Crazy Psycho for Hire who joined up specifically to Rape, Pillage, and Burn and doesn't care whose banner they're doing it under. If he wasn't in the army, he'd be a Serial Killer or other sadistic criminal, or (more likely) an angry average Joe who'd eventually lash out violently once all that bitter hatred boiled over. The Unwilling Conscript: Your regular neighborhood boy who has been conscripted into the army, has absolutely no interest in war, hates it all, and has only his own personal survival at stake. Often terrorized and brutalized by his own officers and noncoms. Extremely likely to desert, sell their own side out and/or kill their would-be comrades. The Broken Soldier: He was a Nice Guy once upon a time, just trying to take care of his buddies and protect his home â€” but then he saw or experienced something that broke him inside, and now he just wants to end the war and go home. If there's a whole bunch of them, expect an Insane Admiral, Colonel Kilgore, or General Ripper in charge. Occasionally, the rest of the soldiers will be relatively sympathetic, but one of these will be the Token Evil Teammate, especially a Jingo who went too far or the Psycho. Contrast Officer and a Gentleman, Cultured Warrior, and The Soft-Hearted Warrior. Overlaps with Blood Knight, except a Blood Knight is likely to be more sociable and likes the action and excitement of the battle more than carnage or committing war crimes. Compare with the more mercenary Psycho for Hire, who might be a veteran who found out the carnage was enjoyable. Compare and contrast Shell-Shocked Veteran. After leaving the military, this type of character is especially likely to go From Camouflage to Criminal and turn to a life of crime, taking their wartime ruthlessness to use in the criminal underworld. Not to be confused with Psycho Soldier, where the 'psycho' refers to Psychic Powers. This is Truth in Television. Every war, ever, has examples of this show up on all sides. Some have more, some have less, but no side has none. However, listing examples invites flame wars, so No Real Life Examples, Please!

Sociopathic Soldier / int_12300cc3	comment	In Watchmen, the Comedian shoots a pregnant woman to death while serving in Vietnam without a hint of remorse. And it was his baby. The Comedian then immediately calls out Dr. Manhattan for not doing anything to stop him despite being all-powerful. From his perspective, Dr. Manhattan is a sociopathic soldier. This has spawned MANY fanfics where Dr. Manhattan teleported the baby to X.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_1ab9ad1d	comment	Killzone Colonel Cobar from Killzone: Liberation. When he was still a private during the formation of the Helghast military, he shot his military instructor for stopping a training operation because another recruit was wounded. His ascension to colonel made it worse: mere days into the invasion of Vekta, he captured, tortured and dismembered three ISA council members in Sedah City. Rico from the same series takes it up a step further, and apparently is a good guy. His questionable tactics include wielding a heavy machine gun during a hostage situation and not settling for stealth when Helghast can be killed. It gets bad in Killzone 2 when Templar decides in some strange fashion that he is worthy of not only heading up Alpha but also getting the charge to capture Visari. Guess how it ends. In the manual for the first game, it's stated he was a Rhino Squad member, who were known for being unnecessarily violent.

When he has to be an army recruiter, one of the things he is asking people in a failed attempt at recruiting them is whether they want to kill people. Also, in "You Kent Always Say What You Want," Homer compares his elation to getting his 100th ice cream cone as being similar to gaining his first kill had he been in a war. Mitigated when he was once recruited by the Marines, he isn't smart enough to even hold a rifle, the one they gave him only shoots bubbles.

Nora's mother was almost a victim of being raped by him and she was eventually killed during a Grimm attack that he let in to show the capability of the Atlas military. He is also seen shooting his own soldiers when they get in his way. When he is in Haven, RNJR and Qrow decide to expose him using Ruby as the bait to lure him into a hotel room to catch him in the act. When a Grimm attack breaks out halfway there, he decides to take Ruby in an alley and attempts to rape her there before even thinking to stop the monsters.

Except that the NEF specializes in Lovecraftian Superpowers and stalking their victims like horror monsters. Juluk underwent a days-long Trauma Conga Line running in sheer terror for his life with little to no food, until in desperation he almost drown in a river trying to get away. The Hierarchy finds him, puts him in a hospital... And the moment he wakes up they tell him that the rest of his unit is dead and that he should be back for duty as soon as possible. That was the last straw for Julek's sanity, as the only way he could interpret the whole situation was as a giant cosmic joke, and the realization has him Laughing Mad. Now he's known as the epitome of Dissonant Serenity, casually challenging others to shoot him, making bets with his squad over how long the "new meat" gets eaten, wiping the rotting entrails of his dead allies on his armor, and more. And in his words? He's never been happier.

Like most "superheroes" in the setting, including Law himself, he and his fellow gang members are disaffected veterans of the catastrophic South American war known as "the Zone". He was trained to kill in the most brutal fashion imaginable and resents the idea that his violent nature can somehow be turned on and off like a faucet. He wears a necklace of human ears and just wants to hurt everything he sees. Law doesn't like Suicida but doesn't blame him for his feelings or his behavior, since very few Zone veterans are doing much better.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_39c20861	comment	In the Highlander episode "Brothers in Arms", Andrew Cord is a Broken Soldier. During the American Civil War, he joined the Union Army's 54th Massachusetts Regiment note a famous regiment composed of black enlisted soldiers with white officers; sadly, despite a magnificent combat record they still had to deal with prejudice and mistreatment from their own high command, died in action and revived as an Immortal. He continued as a soldier fighting for causes he believed in, but when fighting never seemed to do any good, he slid from idealism to cynicism and finally sociopathy. Flashbacks reveal that when Joe Dawson served in Vietnam (and had both legs blown off by a land mine), Cord was Dawson's platoon sergeant. When another Marine in the platoon raped a Vietnamese girl and she threatened to report it, Cord killed her without hesitation. By the time Duncan meets him in the present day, he's a corrupt mercenary and arms dealer who thinks nothing of selling defective guns to revolutionaries and demanding payment even after the guns have proven useless in battle.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_3b7abee2	comment	Half-Life features this trope in the series: The HECU Marines are definitely the Jingo type in the original Half-Life. While, to be fair, they ARE under orders to silence everyone, some seem to take an unnecessary glee in their task. It helps that they blame the Black Mesa team for intentionally causing the Resonance Cascade, despite several of them being terrified of the invading aliens and trying to figure a way to stop the Cascade.note Somewhat averted in Opposing Force - the game sets up events so it's extremely hard to get any surviving military member to meet a scientist (and if he does, said scientist is dead), but for the most part, they're more concerned with getting out and saving each other. Of course, it's more nuanced than that - while there are sociopathic soldiers, there also are soldiers that genuinely dislike what they have been ordered to do. The Black Ops, however, are universally proud to be the Psychopath type, taking glee in violently torturing not just Black Mesa staff, but also surviving HECU Marines left behind after the latter failed their mission. An early team-based puzzle in Opposing Force showcases this, with Corporal Shephard running into a HECU Engineer that was savagely beaten by the Black Ops for information, and then left for dead trapped inside a garage, requiring you to guide a Medic to heal him up so he can bust open a locked door for you to advance.note As if that wasn't bad enough, they also tortured Otis. The Combine Overwatch Soldiers continue this trope in Half-Life 2, but this time as Unwilling Conscripts. Heavily brainwashed and surgically altered, they're treated as tools rather than living beings, even being stored unconscious on racks when not in use. Combine Soldiers speak with a rough monotone voice, and only do so to relay relevant tactical information to fellow Soldiers. In the field, they show little-to-no emotion when killing dissidents or reporting squad casualties. The only time any emotion is hinted at is when they're being threatened with off-world reassignment. If it weren't for the fact that Civil Protection is more of the Combine's police force than part of the Overwatch military itself, they would've counted as this trope thanks to their pure sadism.note And unlike Overwatch Soldiers, who at least have the excuse of generally being taken into service by force and then brainwashed, Civil Protection is entirely voluntary and involves no brainwashing.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_4b9e2831	comment	Andrew Scott from Universal Soldier. He was a Sergeant in The Vietnam War, where he goes renegade as he starts butchering civilians and kills his own squad when they try to stop him. He cuts off the ears of his victims and wears them in a necklace. He orders Private Luc Deveraux to kill the two remaining 'traitors', two Vietnamese children, doing the job himself when Deveraux refuses. Both are reborn years later as memory-wiped Super Soldiers. As soon as Scott regains his memories he kills his controllers and goes on a blood-filled vendetta across the States to punish Deveraux for disobeying his illegal orders back in Vietnam, graphically killing anyone who gets in his way. At the end he takes Deveraux's elderly parents and his love interest hostage, awarding all of them the death penalty. Despite claims earlier in the film that he thinks he's still fighting the insurgents in Vietnam, Scott later plainly admits that he's fully aware of where he is and what he's doing, and his only motive is revenge for Deveraux refusing to partake in his atrocities.

They used to be a typical child before war broke out, but the horror of his hometown being bombed and losing their home, friends, and mother during a later air raid, completely crushed their spirit. They chose to join the army underage, made it to the rank of sergeant, and left 'a mountain of corpses' in their wake as their form of revenge against the opposing nation. When they meet the recent army-deserter Franky, they were ready to murder the deserter, despite them being unarmed and begging to be spared. Fortunately, after the deserter's uncomfortably true words and a mission gone bad, Twilight chooses to never fight again without having all the information obtainable, turning them more into the Anti-Hero they are known for.

Sergeant Nicholai Ginovaef of Resident Evil 3: Nemesis, an ex-soldier turned mercenary is this trope to a "T", plotting to murder all of his colleagues so that he can receive their pay. He's also a Badass Normal who somehow manages to survive the game, making your life a living hell the entire time. U.S.S. team leader HUNK, alias "Mr. Death", of Resident Evil 2 is a totally cold-blooded version, who willingly leaves his teammates to die in furtherance of his mission, and doesn't care at all about the civilians his team guns down. He earned said alias because of a reputation for being the Sole Survivor of a number of missions. Despite apparently being intended as an insult, HUNK sees it as a point of pride and seems to think that this makes him immortal or invincible. Generally speaking, the Umbrella Security Service (U.S.S.) and Umbrella Bioweapon Countermeasures Service (U.B.C.S.) seem to attract a lot of these guys. Given the nature of the work and the fact that most of them are Former Regime Personnel or professional mercenaries, this is unsurprising. The entire business is headed up by Colonel Kilgore Sergei Vladimir. Jack Krauser from Resident Evil 4 and Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles. Originally career military with side gigs as a mercenary, Krauser was driven over the edge after suffering a Career-Ending Injury to his left arm. He faked his own death, joining Wesker's organization in pursuit of greater power through Umbrella's viruses.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_59151283	comment	Metal Gear is constantly in conversation with this trope. Solid Snake is somewhere between a Broken Soldier and a Psychopath. He demonstrably has a strong moral code compared to even the other heroic characters in the game, but at various times (especially in the first Metal Gear Solid) characters call him out for enjoying the killing, which he all but acknowledges. (This ties into the fact that the player is, of course, killing people as Snake for their personal entertainment.) In Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, if the player chooses to have Snake kill too many people in one go, Snake has a flashback to Liquid accusing him of enjoying all the killing and vomits. He constantly attempts to quit battle due to his PTSD, but is also constantly drawn back into it again, and says it's the only time he feels truly alive. Liquid Snake is a Broken Soldier, an absolute screwup for similar reasons to Snake, having been raised to believe he was worthless, becoming a horrifyingly effective warlord while still a child and leading a failed coup, then, in adulthood, getting captured and tortured for years as a POW, which apparently caused the last of his sanity to desert him. Liquid is far more emotional than Solid Snake and appears to do awful things out of bitterness and rage to begin with. After his death he seems to become a lot more cheerful, and thereafter openly delights in the chaos and misery he causes. Metal Gear Solid: Mantis is a Psychopath, having absorbed the mind of a serial killer, and choosing to join Liquid "to kill as many people as I could". Sniper Wolf is an Unwilling Conscript turned Psychopath. She is clearly as damaged as she is because of the trauma she underwent as a victim of ethnic cleansing, and turned killer at first only to protect herself, but the fact that she 'falls in love with people before she kills them' puts her somewhat in the serial killer section on the diagram. She tells Snake that her reason for joining Liquid was "to take my revenge on the world". The BB Corps in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots are Unwilling Conscripts turned Psychopaths, having all started out as helpless victims of war but being deliberately manipulated into becoming ruthless, sadistic cyborg monsters who live to kill. Metal Gear: Ghost Babel: Pyro Bison informs Snake of the number of people he killed, telling him that he's this. (The absolute lowest number of kills he can accuse Snake of is two, due to there being no alternative for Slasher Hawk and Marionette Owl.) Marionette Owl is definitely an example of the Psychopath type - a former serial killer who was recruited into the military in a Boxed Crook situation. His motivation for cornering Snake appears to be to take some of Snake's prettier bones to give to his bunraku puppets. In Metal Gear Solid V, Venom and Kaz are both Broken Soldiers, having once been somewhat more idealistic and flexible, but also have given up their morals after both having virtually all of their men murdered in front of them and getting mutilated. Raiden in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance is another Unwilling Conscript gone Psychopath. A deeply traumatised child soldier known as 'Jack the Ripper', he'd successfully managed to restrict most of the trauma until being purposefully baited into regressing to his Ripper persona, which turns out to be a huge mistake on the part of the villains, who now have to deal with a terrifyingly powerful Cyber Ninja who really, really likes killing. Sundowner and Mistral are Psychopath sadistic soldiers. Mistral is a Blood Knight who enjoys the act of killing while Sundowner loves war itself and is enthusiastic about the immoral ways Desperado Enforcement will spark future conflicts.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_66b71020	comment	We later learn in the miniseries The Punisher: Born, which chronicles Frank Castle's final tour in Vietnam, that Castle's Marine outpost of Valley Forge was rife with these. The vast majority of the Marines are depicted as either clear-cut psychopaths, amoral conscripts, or jingoistic sociopaths — half of whom are implied to be addicted to heroin — with a commanding officer who is alcoholic, broken and knows full well that the war is a lost cause. With the young narrator of the story Stevie Goodwin explicitly stated to be an unwilling conscript who wanted nothing to do with the war and whose only desire is to return home safely, but at the same time realizes that sticking with Frank Castle and his platoon is his best bet at getting home in one piece, as Castle is the only competent higher-ranking Marine in the whole outpost.

Jan seems generally unstable and has poor impulse control, leading him to kill Jackson and Bullet to steal the money from their final heist.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_69fad9a5	comment	The Human Liberation Front in The Conversion Bureau: The Other Side of the Spectrum is composed of every type save for Unwilling Conscripts. There's the Jingoes, who think they can do anything they want to invading ponies, PHL or not, because of their very association with the Advancing Wall of Doom that's destroying their world. The Psychopaths are continually alluded to, and a lot of them happen to be broken by the traumas that set them on the road to being in the HLF. One such example is Victor Kraber, who left the group after a Heel Realization and has since then been The Atoner (though he's still got an itchy trigger finger when it comes to the enemy forces). Many of the heroic characters are of the Broken type themselves. Marcus is a Shell-Shocked Veteran who is so utterly broken by the horrible things he's seen and had to do throughout the Conversion War, it's a miracle he's as level-headed as he is. Stephan meanwhile does have it together a bit better than most but he too has many of his own problems. TCB!Trixie also carries quite a lot of baggage herself in due part to her fears of Becoming the Mask with regards to the alternate personalities she uses in her spy work becoming fully realized and becoming as ruthless as the people she fights against.

He's got a thing for Cold-Blooded Torture, bombings, and misplaced Patriotic Fervor, giving an amazing impression of a Right-Wing Militia Fanatic. He's also got a Complexity Addiction - he uses a missile to try and kill one person. Think about that for a minute. Lieutenant Trotter is also an example. Disciple of General Ripper Slade Wilson, she willingly engages in kidnapping, brainwashing, and human experimentation in the supposed interests of protecting the US from metahumans. A Knight Templar whom even Flag believes needs stopping. Her devotion to both Slade and her belief that metahumans need to be stopped gets to a point where she arrests and interrogates three completely normal people, including subtly implying that if they don't answer her questions, they'll never be seen or heard from again. Keep in mind that the only evidence she has against these three is being on Oliver Queen's payroll (Emil), writing a lot of stories about a superhero (Lois), and being Oliver's ex-girlfriend and current business partner (Tess). She badgers them about where the vigilantes are, despite the fact that she has no good reason to think any of them know anything. While she is never flat-out violent towards those three in particular during the interrogations, her orders to move Tess and Emil to a "secure location" heavily sounds like they were either going to be executed or moved to a location where she could use less conversational techniques.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_72262aee	comment	Avatar: The Last Airbender. Deconstructed when Katara goes after the soldier who killed her mother, expecting a Psycho for Hire. What she gets is a cowardly old man, whom she angrily describes as "just empty. There's nothing inside you." The implication is that fear got him to act like a Conscript; outside of combat he's not much of a threat—just don't sneak up on him. Another implication could have been that either that: the soldier was a Might Makes Right kind of guy, so he wimps out at the sight of more powerful figures (For example: his mother, and Katara). Or that he is a foil who shows that this (being a wimpy, cowardly, "Well Done, Son" Guy) is what Katara would have been like if her mother was still alive. Yet another interpretation, is that he was a monster, but had some kind of crippling mother issues aside and that years of retirement living under his mother had ground him down to the point that he wasn't worth killing. Or that he became that way as a result of the things he had done on the battlefield, becoming a Shell-Shocked Veteran.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_755b343f	comment	The Spartan-III Program in Halo is partly designed to produce this. The recruits were chosen exclusively from orphaned children of Covenant attacks on Outer Colonies, most of which were 4-6 years old, and were raised and trained on the sole promise that they'd one day be able to avenge their families by killing every Covenant warrior. The result was several companies of peerless fighters fully willing to participate in suicide attacks to take out entire Covenant worlds. Headhunters Roland and Jonah exemplify the attitude, taking absolute glee in mowing down and mutilating Covenant soldiers while fueled by the memory of their glassed homeworlds. Emile-A239 is another Spartan-III example whose life is defined by the pleasure he takes killing Covenant. His superiors specifically mention that it's best for everyone that he be fielded solely against Covenant targets; his brutality is ill-suited against human Insurrectionists who could very well garner sympathy from the public if his methods were showcased.

Then again, given that they're led by the likes of Jamitov Hymem, Bask Om, and Paptimus Scirocco, this shouldn't be surprising. Yazan Gable is probably the worst, being a Psycho for Hire who joined up solely for the chance to kill AEUG supporters. Yazan received an expy in Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ's Rakan Dahkaran, a ruthless Axis-Zeon Ace Pilot who ignores the rules of war and aims to kill as many of the enemy as possible, regardless of whether they are actually combatants. One iconic scene has him impassively firing on hospital ships and refugee craft as they attempt to flee from a Colony Drop; he wants to make sure that no one escapes the blast radius. Alex and Mueller are two of Lucrezia Noin's former trainees who go this route in their sole episode of Mobile Suit Gundam Wing. They both take great joy in sadistically murdering their opponents and laughing over the wreckage. If they weren't members of the army, they'd be Psychos For Hire. Many, many examples in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED and Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, from ZAFT troops executing surrendered Earth Forces personnel despite their enemies surrendering, to Blue Cosmos lunatics who gleefully launch nuclear weapons at ZAFT's home bases in the Plants. The Bio-CPU's are particularly vicious about it, although that's not entirely their fault.

Acting as a strike team for Blue Cosmos, the three of them see a lot of action; only Sven makes it out alive. Mobile Suit Gundam 00 features the A-LAWS who are more or less a collective Expy of the Titans from Zeta; among their number is another of Yazan's expies, Ali Al-Saachez, a Psycho for Hire and Card-Carrying Villain who freely admits that he loves warfare, and wouldn't know what to do with himself if an actual world peace was established. He later graduates to Colonel Kilgore after being given an officer's rank by Big Bad Ribbons Allmark, whom he becomes The Dragon to. Desil Galette of Mobile Suit Gundam AGE takes the worst qualities of both Yazan and Ali and combines them into a single, nasty child-sized package, treating war as a game and his victims as toys. The timeskip has not improved him, and the disconcerting enthusiasm he shows whenever's he's turned loose on his enemies is if anything more disturbing on a thirty-three-year-old.

Recruits to the Chorus either join willingly because they are Psychopaths who want to kill and rape things, or are Unwilling Conscripts dragged into the Chorus and mentally brutalized. Those who are conscripted and somehow end up surviving for long enough to thrive inevitably 'evolve' into Psychopaths, as continued life in the Chorus eats away your former identity and leaves you a sociopathic Social Darwinist. By contrast their rival army, The Disfavoured, are almost entirely made up of Jingos. They are very much The Proud Elite and proud of their homeland in the Northern Empire, and look down on anyone who's not Disfavoured. While those who surrender early escape by 'merely' being enslaved, those who provide enough resistance for the Disfavoured to take them seriously (or prove unworthy foes by rebelling or breaking earlier terms of surrender) tend to end up being mass crucified by the roadside as a warning to the rest.

Back when he was Agnian, Dirk took sadistic pleasure in murdering his victims, equipping himself with a pair of self-made claws that allowed him to lop people's heads off. It also didn't matter that Keves was his enemy, as there were plenty of soldiers from Agnus working alongside him who he lopped off the heads of completely on purpose. The only reason why he stopped being a normal Agnian and became part of Moebius is because such power meant that not only would he live forever through the Flame Clocks, but he would be able to slaughter more people than he ever could as an Agnian. Before he's defeated, it's revealed that he has an entire collection of severed heads from the people he killed, both as Dirk and as D.

This is the justification given in chapter 38 for why Blacklight black ops troops are so easy to defeat, at least for elite superhuman warriors like Adam, Hannibal, and Johann - The Alliance Intelligence Agency selects for the jingoistic ultranationalists willing to cross any line to protect humanity's interests, and as it turns out being a talented combatant and being one willing to get his hands dirty are categories that rarely overlap. Some Psychopaths are also among their ranks, only in it for the opportunities to hurt people.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_90c73dda	comment	Taylor in Animorphs is sociopathic even by Yeerk standards. Torture Technician, Manipulative Bastard, and Jerkass extraordinaire, she just plain enjoys hurting people. And on the side of the good guys, there's Token Evil Teammate and Blood Knight Rachel. Unlike Taylor, she's not a sadist, she just likes fighting a bit too much and spends three years slowly Jumping Off the Slippery Slope. Alloran is a Broken Soldier. He used to be a normal young Andalite, even a prankster- until the Yeerks rose up and slaughtered his comrades. This embittered him to the point of becoming a General Ripper, unleashing the quantum virus on the Hork-Bajir homeworld and even after his subsequent disgrace is seen executing hostages and trying to force Elfangor to kill thousands of helpless Yeerks. He is so far gone, that even when everything goes to hell, instead of helping secure the Time Matrix he spends his days in hiding, morphing, and demorphing, watching the Yeerk transport for the chance to finish his slaughter. Ironically he seems broken of this again after decades of slavery as Visser Three's host. Aloth, another Andalite, is revealed to have been convicted of selling organs on the battlefield, a war crime, and is generally cold and ruthless (apart from humorless jokes), even for an assassin. Carger from the Hork-Bajir Chronicles, one of the first Yeerks to promote himself to sub-visser is said to be so ruthless and brutal that even a young Esplin (later Visser Three) remarks on it. Possibly subverted as he runs away when ambushed and is never seen again.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_90e2f673	comment	Unsurprisingly common in BattleTech. For the most part, they're Jingos and Psychopaths- any unit with a Fanatical devotion rating is guaranteed to have plenty of Jingos, for example. Unwilling Conscripts are much rarer because Battlemechs, Aerospace Fighters, and even Battle Armor are far too expensive to waste on conscripts, so infantry units are generally the only places they can be found. A lot of Broken Soldiers got created by the Word of Blake Jihad when people who'd joined the Word of Blake suddenly found out that the Word had picked a fight with every other faction in existence and was busy committing war crimes like they had quotas to meet. The knowledge that everyone else was coming for them and they could expect no mercy drove a lot of Blakists who weren't already fanatical (see The Jingo) over the Despair Event Horizon and turned them into Broken Soldiers.

Going by the Soviet campaign, said mindset is that of someone who would deliberately jetpack onto utterly helpless victims to shatter them and then laugh about it. And then there's the ice puns... Similarly, Harbinger pilots are said to be a tad too enthusiastic about their jobs, and are arrogant even for air force pilots. Desolators are Maddened Into Misanthropy, being terminally-ill patients outfitted with crude cybernetics that allow them to breathe the fumes of their hideous flesh-melting chemical weapons (and only the fumes, they choke on fresh air) that violate more than 70 laws of warfare. With a life expectancy of about a year (when said cybernetics break down), there's no surprise that they're a little bitter.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_9d47a2a2	comment	In A Song of Ice and Fire, most knights and men-at-arms conform to this trope, particularly those assigned to raid and despoil peasant villages for information and supplies. One character gives a sympathetic monologue that any man conscripted into war can become this way if he survives long enough. Gregor Clegane is a Psychopath. He only fights under Tywin for a chance to hurt people, and when he's not soldiering he's murdering and raping people for his own amusement. He seems to have been this before he became a soldier; as a child, he burnt his brother's face when they tried playing with a toy he didn't want anyway and is rumored to have murdered his father and sister. The men under him, such as the jolly but cruel rapist Chiswyck, the Faux Affably Evil Raff "the Sweetling", and Torture Technician "The Tickler" also count. Averted slightly by Shitmouth, a foul-mouthed fellow who treats the prisoners slightly more kindly, giving them extra food if they ask. The Brave Companions, better and more accurately known as the Bloody Mummers, are an entire group of these. Theyâ€™re sellswords but they take jobs to fight in war not for the pay, but for the opportunity to rape, murder, torture, and pillage to their heartsâ€™ content.

Frost Walrus was a short-tempered, rowdy Reploid whose destructive behavior got him marked for disposal as a Maverick. However, he was saved when General gave him a chance to join the Repliforce, a military organization of Reploids. Walrus would continue his violent ways, and felt that rampaging through enemies was a military man's duty. When the Great Repliforce War started, Walrus was impressed as it was a perfect excuse for him to riot as much as he liked. Walrus was stationed at Repliforce's base in a snowy region and put in charge of guarding their secret weapon under construction. The Hunters eventually found out about the secret project, and dispatched members of their elite team to stop Walrus. Walrus refused to surrender or stop his actions in the coup d'etat, and the Hunters were forced to destroy him in battle for his Maverick actions, his luck finally running out. He is even worse in the manga. After butchering an entire squadron of Maverick Hunters who were out to stop his rampaging, he kept their corpses encased in ice chambers as port as a trophy collection of his victims. When the Colonel of the Repliforce repimanded him for such misconduct, in a temper tantrum he released several Maverick Hunter prisoners and told them to run for their lives, only to viciously hunt them down for sport and kill each of them with his ice powers, save one, who was saved by X and ex-Maverick Blizzard Buffalo, the latter being reformed in the manga as a hunter. After Walrus viciously injured X into unconsciousness, Buffalo went to fight Walrus alone, who brutually murdered him by impaling Buffalo with a Frost Tower attack. Repliforce leader General had enough of Walrus's evil deeds and brutally shot him down during his second encounter with X as a punishment for his previous misconduct and to save X's life.

In the game, they launch a pointless assault on dockworkers after the political control they were dispatched to achieve was already given up for reasons far beyond their control or responsibility. The characters, while monsters, are at least somewhat sympathetic due to the fact that they were used in a war amongst huge powers that had nothing to do with them. All of them are traumatised by what they were forced through, and all have developed alcoholism as a result. Korty, in particular, ringleads the assault due to impotent rage over failing to handle the political situation, and grief over the murder of his brother.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_c0d295c4	comment	Team Fortress 2: With all nine playable characters being agents of a Private Military Contractor, this trope was bound to happen. The Soldier is a classic Jingo taken to comical levels. According to his backstory, he tried to join the army to kill Nazis and was turned down, so he bought a ticket to Poland and embarked on a "Nazi killing spree" that lasted until 1949... In other words, four whole years after the Nazis had surrendered. Given his tenuous grasp on reality, one can only wonder how many of those "Nazis" were actually innocents. This has only gotten worse with time, thanks to Soldier drinking heavily polluted water instead of the bottled water that the mercenaries were supplied. By the later periods of the story, he's almost completely out of touch with reality and prone to bizarre hallucinations, and dangerous to anyone around him, even attacking his own teammates at times. Lampshaded with the Sniper, who prides himself as a professional assassin, and takes offense to being called a crazed gunman by his parents. Despite his self-proclaimed professionalism however, he is more than happy to throw jars of his own urine at his enemies. The Engineer likewise usually maintains an outward appearance of professionalism. However, he was apparently willing to saw off his own right hand just to replace it with a prosthetic for its combat utility. The Medic is unashamedly gleeful to experiment on friend and foe alike. Despite his scientific advancements having revolutionary potential in medicine, he prefers to use them to help his team massacre the enemy and satisfy his own morbid curiosity. The Pyro takes this furthest — even the other mercenaries, including their own teammates, regard them as being wildly sociopathic. Just about the only intelligible sound they can make is a maniacal laugh as they burn everyone around them to death. Their Meet The Pyro video revealed them to be far beyond mere sociopathy and actually completely divorced from reality altogether. The mercs in general just really, really enjoy the work they do, and it just so happens that work involves a lot of killing in cruel and unusual ways. In the game itself, several voicelines show they're aware it's all just a game where Death is Cheap, so taking killing so lightly is understandable. In the lore... Not so much.

Sociopathic Soldier / int_c0da5437	comment	The Punisher is usually interpreted as this to the point where he cannot even smile at the deeds he does (mentioned when he kills Bushwhacker.) He has essentially taken his war to the streets showing no pity, remorse or fear against gangsters, psychos, killers, rapists, criminals or Hired Guns. Some suggest it was his experience in Vietnam that made him this way, making a Deal with the Devil, all works show it was losing his family that made him nuts. Whatever the case he is a combination of the Jingo and the Broken Soldier, to the point where he regrets not having someone to kill, or even having a wife and kids in the first place (though this can be interpreted as if he didn't they wouldn't have been in the park, they wouldn't have been killed and that he wouldn't have turned into the sociopath he is today.) We later learn in the miniseries The Punisher: Born, which chronicles Frank Castle's final tour in Vietnam, that Castle's Marine outpost of Valley Forge was rife with these. The vast majority of the Marines are depicted as either clear-cut psychopaths, amoral conscripts, or jingoistic sociopaths — half of whom are implied to be addicted to heroin — with a commanding officer who is alcoholic, broken and knows full well that the war is a lost cause. With the young narrator of the story Stevie Goodwin explicitly stated to be an unwilling conscript who wanted nothing to do with the war and whose only desire is to return home safely, but at the same time realizes that sticking with Frank Castle and his platoon is his best bet at getting home in one piece, as Castle is the only competent higher-ranking Marine in the whole outpost.

The one exception is Strax, the Combat Medic that the Doctor recruits in "A Good Man Goes To War", who he'd previously spared and forced to become a Combat Medic, on the grounds that caring for the sick and the weak is a Sontaran's idea of hell, who nevertheless comes to become a good and gruffly caring medic in his own right. This demonstrates that their sociopathy is learned, rather than ingrained. Most Daleks fall under this trope as well thanks to their genetic modifications by Davros, committing genocide at the drop of a hat. The War Doctor became a Broken Soldier, being the one to ultimately succumb to despair and end the Time War by destroying both Daleks and Time Lords... or so it appeared. All of the post-revival Doctors have elements of this as a result, with Danny Pink - a former soldier - contemptuously referring to the 12th Doctor as 'an officer', specifically an officer version of this trope. The soldiers who pursue Rouvray and D'Argenson in "The Reign of Terror", are little more than murderous thugs.

The former will kill at the drop of a hat, just because someone's annoyed her, while the latter kills/drains the life out of people because it's fun. Both are the Psycho, though Belova pretends that she's the Jingo.

His end is tragic: he walks into an ambush in night fight, gets shot and wounded on his spine, gets paralyzed and shoots himself because he considers himself now as cripple and bottom of the pecking order. He doesn't give himself any more mercy or respect than to anyone else, and sees suicide as the only logical conclusion.

They are the emotionally damaged Sven Cal Bayan (who was left this way after Training from Hell and believes he's Just Following Orders), the sadistic Mudie Holcroft, and the hyper-aggressive Shams Couza. Acting as a strike team for Blue Cosmos, the three of them see a lot of action; only Sven makes it out alive.

Going by the Soviet campaign, said mindset is that of someone who would deliberately jetpack onto utterly helpless victims to shatter them and then laugh about it. And then there's the ice puns... Similarly, Harbinger pilots are said to be a tad too enthusiastic about their jobs, and are arrogant even for air force pilots. Desolators are Maddened Into Misanthropy, being terminally-ill patients outfitted with crude cybernetics that allow them to breathe the fumes of their hideous flesh-melting chemical weapons (and only the fumes, they choke on fresh air) that violate more than 70 laws of warfare. With a life expectancy of about a year (when said cybernetics break down), there's no surprise that they're a little bitter.

Rourke from Atlantis: The Lost Empire: He initially appears as a very reliable and praiseworthy commander able to lead his men through perils, but as the film progresses, he turns out to be a highly manipulative, ruthless and sadistic mercenary to steal the Heart of Atlantis and make money off of it, not even caring that the Atlanteans will die without it. When his crew turn against him and join Milo's side, he abandons them to die with the Atlaneans. All in all, Rourke is an evil madman with no regard for anyone but himself. Worse, he clearly enjoys causing suffering—like fatally injuring the elderly king in the gut and punching Milo and smashing his grandfather's photo—and never shows the slightest bit of remorse for his heinous deeds despite knowing he was endangering thousands of innocent lives.
