Superior Species	comment	If Humans Are the Real Monsters, then it follows that other races must be better than us. Even when humans are realistically portrayed, there may be a race that is stronger, smarter, and/or purer than us. Members of the Superior Species never engage in something as stupid as warfare unless justifiably provoked, where they will wipe the floor without effort, they certainly never pollute their world, and they must definitely be just better than you, yes? They are prettier than you, more badass than you, smell better than you and probably live longer than you in their Utopia. And of course, you can't argue with them. It seems they're not above arrogance, though — they usually feel the need to rub their any and all forms of superiority in our faces, or hold humanity on trial just for crimes committed against itself. Take solace that some of these arrogant prick species inevitably went through bloody periods in their history even if they'll never admit it to what they'd often see as but "dumb/clueless hairless apes", showing they were at some point no better. All too many others, though, didn't and don't hesitate to point out why this also makes them better than humanity. A Superior Species doesn't have to follow all of these requirements; demonstration that the species is "superior" to humanity is enough. And no, this trope is not automatically a Sueperior species. If such a race believes that their superiority gives them the right to exploit "lesser" races like humans do animals, then they believe in The Right of a Superior Species. See also This Loser Is You, Ultraterrestrials and Can't Argue with Elves (for a species that thinks they're superior and likes to brag about it). Contrast Humans Are Flawed, where humans not being perfect is a good thing. Compare Born Winner, where an individual is innately better than everyone else; Designer Babies, a common method of artificially developing one of these; Super Supremacist, where Differently Powered Individuals hold themselves as superior to mundane humans; and Humans Need Aliens, for when the alien race decides to help humans. Not to be confused with Eldritch Abomination, which a species is conceived superior due to their incomprehensible nature. For a species or other groups that only think they're this, and want to force everybody else to think it too, see Master Race. If it's the humans themselves at the top of the ladder, you might be looking for Humanity Is Superior instead.

Superior Species / int_247422c7	comment	This trope is the reason why the Beowulf Code in Honor Harrington is so adamant about not altering humanity beyond the limits of nature. Ordinary human racism is bad enough, and (as Beowulf had just seen), things get a hundred times worse when one specific race actually is measurably and quantifiably superior to the rest of mankind.

Superior Species / int_3aeb1c75	comment	Dragon Ball: In the original Dragon Ball, King Piccolo firmly believes that he and his sons are superior to humans and outright states as such. Saiyans are an interesting example - they're definitely physically superior to humans, but they're not usually all that special in the cosmic scheme of things, and none of them are depicted as being superhumanly intelligent outside their incredible talent for violence (although this may simply be because there are few problems a Saiyan can't solve by punching them). The catch is that they have literally infinite potential, so they never, ever stop getting stronger and better at fighting if they set their minds to it. A properly trained and motivated Saiyan can take on absolutely anything (up to and including deities) and win. Dragon Ball Super introduces Angels, celestial beings who represent each universe in the multiverse. They're older, smarter, stronger, and better than every species ever, mortal and divine alike. Of course, as the first creations and chief lieutenants of the god of the multiverse, this is to be expected.

Superior Species / int_4522fd1	comment	Whateley Universe: From what little is known of them, the Sidhe may well have been embodiments of this before their version of The End of the World as We Know It happened. The modern-day reincarnation of one of their most powerful queens is already considered one of both the most powerful and the most beautiful students on campus before the end of her first semester, and it's been strongly hinted at that her ancient original (whose personality lives on in her head for the time being) was easily a hundred times more awesome and at some point ruled not only over her own people, but the humans living in the area as well — to say nothing of dealing with a variety of supernatural movers and shakers on at least an equal basis. (We haven't yet learned much about the "common" Sidhe, but there have been a hint or two that the humans were second-class citizens at best back in that day. This is apparently the past of this universe's Earth.)

Superior Species / int_460f1a4f	comment	Deconstructed in Planet of the Apes (1968). Taylor's opening monologue establishes that he's looking for something better than humanity, which he sees as irreparably flawed. He finds the apes, who have no use for a filthy human like him. He quickly notices that they are capable of the same cruelties and prejudices as we are. As the movie progresses, he is forced to argue in humanity's defense, ultimately claiming that humanity was "better" after all - until the famous ending reminds him why he had such a low opinion of his fellow man in the first place. By the end of the original series, both humans and apes have acknowledged their own flaws and are making an effort to live as equals.

Superior Species / int_49ad83ee	comment	World of Warcraft The draenei are sometimes accused of being a perfect race, but they are a weird case. On the one hand, they are long-lived or maybe even immortal. They have magitek that makes them able to construct inter-dimensional floating castles/spaceships, complete with teleporters, holograms, hard-light floors and escape pods (making them one of the most technologically advanced race in the setting). They are the first (and only when they were introduced) race to master elemental magic, arcanic magic (they were so good at it that Sargeras, who wants to destroy all life, tried to make them his lieutenants) and light magic (they had paladins millenia before humans supposedly invented them, and talk directly to beings who are one with the Light). They are as tall and muscled as taurens, who were previously the tallest and most muscled race. They were introduced as the pure, original version of a previously established race. Even their weapons are made from pretty crystals. Finally, they are the closest thing the franchise has to a Lawful Good race. However, their society isn't really romanticized by any character in the games (in fact they barely are mentioned), they lost every single battle where they stood on their own, and their overwhelming goodness is more-or-less justified as they're the faction of their species who refused to follow Sargeras and The Legions of Hell. Mists of Pandaria's portrayal of the previously well liked Pandaren have also been accused of this. They have virtually no evil individuals, every race that opposes them is portrayed as Always Chaotic Evil, and their morals are always depicted as correct. It didn't help that entire races such as the Orcs were demonized to help facilitate their aesops and that the narrative doesn't admit that the Pandaren exhibit the same merciless attitude towards their enemies that the "inferior" species show.

Superior Species / int_4cd32aa7	comment	Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: Elves have the highest ability score total of all the races, a Movement speed of 5 (about as fast as a horse), they don't need to pay tuition fees if they want to become wizards, and their career options lack many of the sucky ones that plague the human list, like the Peasant. They still get shafted in terms of Fate Points and Wounds, but not quite as much as Halflings in this regard. Of course, this is balanced by the fact that you're playing in a corner of the world where the majority of people who live outside major trade cities are superstitious racists who take Screw You, Elves! as wholesome advice that should be acted out with the nearest sharp object or burning torch. 4th Edition adds another balancing factor: Elves have to spend one of their Endeavours on contacting their people, leaving them with less things they are able to do in the downtime between adventures.

Superior Species / int_5e150650	comment	Exalted: The Fair Folk are this compared to humanity. It's enforced by actual game mechanics: every other character (including Exalted) start with a minimum of one dot in each Attribute, before character creation begins. Fair Folk nobles, however, start with a minimum of three dots in each Attribute, so even in their worst area of physical, mental, or social ability, they will be better than is average for humans. Plus, they receive enough dots during character creation that they will begin play with multiple Attribute ratings of six dots or more, which is both superhuman and better than even Exalted can start with. And just to rub it in, they have a special Charm, "Imposition of Law," which allows them to become so expert at any one skill that they receive an automatic success on every roll with it (which only fails to apply when they go up against another being with Charms or attempt to do something that is actually physically impossible). The Fair Folk are better than you. It's the rules.

Superior Species / int_69d15cc0	comment	According to the tie-in comics mainly, the Asgardian of the MCU were (before a Trauma Conga Line and Uniqueness Decay hit them) the officially-recognized Galactic Superpower in the universe. Since the Bifröst enables them to be anywhere at a moment's notice, fear of them is what kept punks like the Jötunns, Trolls, Badoon, and Marauders in line. As consequence, when the Bifröst went down, all the evil races came out of the bushes and start wreaking havoc. And even putting that all aside, ignoring unique cases like the Inhumans, Mutants, and Eternals (which are too individually varied for them to be worthy of real comparison), they're easily the physically strongest out of all extant sapient races in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, having Super-Strength, Super-Toughness, an advanced Healing Factor, and being especially Long-Lived as just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. The only beings that really dwarf them are the Celestials, who act more like Cosmic Keystones.

Superior Species / int_6ac55ec7	comment	Dungeons & Dragons has the titular dragons of its various settings and editions. Dragons, even Good-aligned ones, consider themselves superior to everything else that lives and breathes, except maybe the gods themselves. It's not hard to see why: a dragon is typically stronger, faster, tougher, and smarter than every other mortal species that they meet. Many dragons have abilities which let them shapeshift, cast spells, and manipulate the environment around them with just their mere presence. Many of them also live long enough to see entire civilizations rise and fall. The difference is that Good-aligned metallic dragons consider humanoids to be inferior but worth protecting, like how the average human would consider a puppy or a kitten (albeit to the point of Condescending Compassion). Evil-aligned chromatic dragons think of humanoids as annoyances at best; many chromatic dragons think of humanoids as another type of food or a blight upon the world to be exterminated.

Superior Species / int_70814599	comment	Comes close to an aversion in Stargate SG-1: When first seen, the Ancients seemed to be this trope, being the most advanced race ever, inventors of the stargate and having ascended to a higher plane of existence. Later in the show and in the spinoff Stargate Atlantis, they were thoroughly nerfed, having made a lot of silly mistakes and being gigantic jerkasses. There are also the Asgard, who later are technologically at least as advanced as the Ancients, are friendly, wise and noble. However, physically they are a Dying Race with deteriorating bodies. Most other advanced species just think they are superior while actually just being arrogant morons. Humanity itself managed to do amazing feats, however, the SGC isn't all of humanity and most of their feats were only accomplished by scooping up technology from other races. Somewhat averted in the early battles against the Replicators: the more technologically advanced races' weapons didn't work against the Replicators, but ours did. Why? Because all the 'superior races' use energy weapons while we're still using bullets. Played straight with the Nox whose technology is so advanced that it's almost like magic.

Superior Species / int_755b343f	comment	Halo deconstructs this with the Forerunners: On one hand, not only were they the most powerful and advanced race in the galaxy during their heyday, but they believed that they had a duty to set an example and care for the other species of galaxy, living up to it by sacrificing themselves in order to stop the Flood. On the other, their superiority ended up distancing them from the galaxy's other races, most of whom became weak and subservient, and they grew to view anyone who opposed them as barbarous ingrates, punishing them by dismantling their societies back to the stone age (with ancient humanity being one of their most notable victims). When the Flood came knocking after the Forerunners' main rivals had finally been defeated, the Forerunners were forced to effectively stand alone. Additionally, their own creators never viewed them as superior, and had in fact planned to favor humanity instead; the Forerunners ended up becoming "superior" only by force.

Superior Species / int_76e7de99	comment	The Dark Elves, otherwise known as Drow in the Forgotten Realms Icewind Dale trilogy, Dark Elf Trilogy, and any other novel with Drizzt in it. They live for centuries, are as silent as death and weave intricate webs of deceptions that humans could never hope to unravel. Every one of them carries magical adamantine weapons and the least-skilled of them can stand toe to toe with the elite warriors of other societies. They all have some magic, and many of them grow to be potent wizards. Their rulers, the most powerful of their kind, are priests commanding the powers of their dark god. On the other hand, they're only capable of cooperating with each other due to direct and repeated intervention from their deity, and then they can barely manage a functioning society. For all their power, their sheer evil keeps them from being effective—but said power still tends towards the ridiculous, if only because the weak tend not to reach adulthood. So, subverted, or played absolutely straight?

The main Milieu races are psychic ("metapsychic"), technologically advanced, and 'coadunate', meaning they're all psychically linked in some way — not a full group mind, but they certainly wouldn't be violent or immoral. Smug and arrogant, maybe, especially when dealing with poor, violent, and imperfectly though scarily psychic Earth. Then there's the Lylmik, inspired by the Arisians, vastly older and powerful, enough so to mess with suns, and who possess a veto of the otherwise sort of democratic government — after all, one Lylmik could probably take on the whole Milieu.

Also like the Cybertronians, however, the Gems are also shown as being, at best, horrible at personal growth. Even the Crystal Gems, La Résistance to Homeworld, barely change despite their many, many, mental issues in more than 5000 years. It takes the help of the main character, Half-Human Hybrid Steven, as well as the passing of their former leader, for them to change for the better and move forwards. On Homeworld, it's literally expected for all loyal gems to be a Static Character, and their society, in said 5000 years, has grown more advanced, and also not changed save to become more tyrannical.

Superior Species / int_7988cb68	comment	Mass Effect The Asari seem like this at first glance. They are very long lived, and seem to have the most advanced culture of the known races. They are wise and have the most skilled warriors, though they lack the raw power and numbers of other races. They are also not warlike, preferring "trade and understanding" with others. They are also all female and sexually liberal to an extreme degree. However, you'll be gunning down plenty of asari villains and mooks. In Mass Effect 2, conversations on the asari planet of Illium (a Wretched Hive painted over with Crystal Spires and Togas), both overheard and with a disgruntled asari Matriarch Aethyta forced to work as a bartender, bring up several things that are wrong with asari society, such as: Asari spend their maiden years (up to the age of 300) stripping or being mercs; A major war breaks out at least once every asari lifetime (the Rachni Wars, the Krogan Rebellions, the Eden Prime War). Wisdom and culture does nothing to stop or end it, and another race has to turn up to save them; They are technologically stagnant to an enormous degree. The suggestion that they try to build new Mass Relays led to Aethyta being laughed halfway across the galaxy. For the last two thousand years their technology has barely progressed at all, to the point where Carriers are considered an innovation. The institutional racism asari have against the offspring of asari-asari unions ("purebloods"). On Illium you speak with a pureblood asari whose mate was killed in the geth uprising, and whose daughters were killed on the Citadel in the geth attack. A dozen metres away a pair of asari are loudly proclaiming how purebloods need to be "purged" and that they "should be prevented from breeding!" The asari in question is devastated by her loss, and those assholes, within earshot, are screaming that they they don't give a shit, because they're purebloods. The main reason for the prejudice is that such unions are possibly more likely to produce their equivalents of Succubi, though it's an incredibly rare genetic disorder by itself. Another minor reason is that since Asaris can breed with any other race, breeding within the Asari race means that "nothing is gained", though again, any benefit or detriment of breeding outside the Asari specie or inside is marginal at best. This all leads back to the asari's true hat: every organic race thinks they're hot. That's their sole contribution to galactic society: they're a race of bisexual fanservice. But hey, At least they use it for the constructive purpose of acting as diplomats and mediators for the rest of the galaxy. This gets deconstructed in Mass Effect 3: Their technological progress? They keep secret that they have the last intact Prothean beacon. Their inherent virtues and biotic abilities? Product of extensive genetic engineering by the Protheans Their diplomatic abilities? The result of more uplift efforts by the Protheans. And if Javik is in the party, he will reveal that this trope was actually invoked by the Protheans, who intended asari to lead the next cycle's races to defend against the Reapers, should the Protheans themselves fail. A chance that the asari merrily squandered away on playing high and mighty. Though he might have been lying to make Liara feel better. The Reapers also qualify for this trope, albeit to a lesser extent as they look down on all organic life, not just humanity, and they aren't exactly pacifists The yahg are also close to this; from the perspective of the next cycle, should Shepard fail, they'd probably be in charge: they're larger than krogan and probably stronger, as smart as the salarians but live significantly longer, they fall in with the most competent leaders even if they're from a different tribe (and are thus potentially as organized as the turians), their tribal culture bred into them a very keen sense of perception (they're nearly impossible to lie to) so they're probably as good with politics as the asari, and since one of them was able to infiltrate, take over and manage the single largest intelligence organization in the known galaxy for decades without anyone even knowing what species he is, it would be safe to say they're as adaptable as humans. They'd be pretty much a perfect species if not for their rampant savagery and comparably primitive technology. That said, the intelligence and adaptability may not necessarily be a species-wide trait but rather something specific to the Shadow-Broker, as Mordin mentions outliers and we never encounter another yahg in a context where such qualities come into play. It is also mentioned in the Shadow Broker dossiers that they had to kill several before finding one who wanted to leave, giving the outliers theory credence.

The tie-in material outright states that they never mistreat their children, have a richer culture, a deeper spirituality, are immune to most diseases, and even their sex is a million times more pleasurable and meaningful than human sex. There was even an early draft of the script that said the Na'vi didn't even understand the concept of lying. However it is at least temporarily subverted in that Humans are way more technologically advanced to the point where in a full on fight between the Human and Na'vi forces, they are outright curb-stomped, until the Na'vi deity intervenes.

Needless to say, they're very much aware of this trope and embrace it with both arms and legs, launching a campaign of genocidal conquest on an universal scale simply based on their belief that their race is superior to all others. This backfired on them badly as it eventually drove the Resistance desperate enough to create a biological weapon that ended up wiping out nearly the entire Viltrumite race, to the point that they had token Viltrumites lead armies of enslaved alien races to hide how badly they'd been depopulated, just to keep the empire from imploding. By the end, there were maybe 100 Viltrumites left in the universe.

Superior Species / int_90a9bc9f	comment	One of the major changes Post-Crisis (partially based on the 1978 movie) was to massively deconstruct the "rightful heir of a superior species" aspect of Superman by taking the Fridge Logic inherent in Krypton's destruction to its logical end (why exactly didn't they figure out their planet was dying, and why didn't they have the means to escape if they had the means to send Kal-El to Earth?) The result was reasoning that Kryptonians were so elitist and arrogant that they were extreme xenophobes who never did any serious space travel because they considered all other life inferior to them, and (with the exception of Jor-El) were too vain to consider the possibility that their planet might be falling apart. The result is that instead of being miserable and lonely on earth, Superman had a very low opinion of Kryptonians for many years, (not helped by the fact that both a hologram of his father and a sentient Kryptonian computer program tried to Mind Rape him to purge him of his acquired humanity) and still secretly considers himself lucky to have grown up on earth instead of Krypton. Their distant cousins, the Daxamites, are not just xenophobic but outright genocidal toward other sentient species. This has come back to bite them in their asses more than once, especially when the Sinestro Corps invaded Daxam.

Superior Species / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls Each race of Mer (Elves) in Tamriel believes this about themselves, but the Altmer (High Elves) really play it up. They see themselves as the closest in blood and culture to the Aldmer, Precursors to all of the races of Mer and supposed direct descendants of the Aedra/Ehlnofey, the divine "original spirits" who created and first populated the mortal world. While the other races are loathe to admit it, Tamriel does owe much of its art, science, philosophy, language and religion to the Altmer who are also the most magically-gifted of all races. The Altmer believe that the other races of Mer are a result of "degeneration" over the ages (and don't even get them started on the races of Men...), while the Altmer actively try to breed themselves back to their ancestral ideal (which includes, according to some potentially biased sources, killing off any undesirable offspring). Come the 4th Era reformation of the Aldmeri Dominion under the leadership of the extremist Thalmor, the Altmer have kicked this belief into overdrive, subjugating the Bosmer (Wood Elves) and Khajiit while waging war against the remnants of the Septim Empire. The Dwemer certainly considered themselves as such, with every other race (Men, Mer, or otherwise) being beneath them. A big part of their Naytheism came from their belief that even the supposed "gods" were not truly superior to them. Arguably Justified, as their advancements (technological, metaphysical, and more) were (and still are) far, far beyond what any other race in Tamriel is capable of.

In that time, they have produced zero legends or tales to their names, with the now extinct humans of the Lostbelt managing to achieve more despite only exisitng for a hundred thousand years.

Plus, their warriors are often equipped with teleporters that teleport them away when hit with extreme damage. Of course, Individuality Is Illegal in their theocratic society based on a religion of Assimilation. This might be considered a significant drawback, at least from a human perspective. It does not apply to the Dark Templar, who severed their connection to the Instrumentality and were branded heretics for it. The Protoss were actually created by the Xel'naga to create a purity of form, so their alleged superiority is mildly justified; it turns out that they were created by none other than Amon who violated the Alien Non-Interference Clause by designing them artifically as a super species to his own likings. However, the few mistakes they actually do make tend to be far more epic than their human counterparts. Witness the loss of their homeworld to a Horde of Alien Locusts, one of them trying to kill a political leader without informing anybody that she was Brainwashed and Crazy, exiling the only warriors who eons later would prove to be able to destroy their worst foe yet, setting a planet on fire regardless of who lives there to burn out a potential threat... The list goes on and on, and that's only in the game! By the time of "Legacy of the Void" the Protoss are easily enslaved by Amon, who was the architect of the Protoss and broke Xel'naga law by interveening in their genesis. He takes over the Khala and turns them into mindless pawns for his grand plan of galactic genocide. Fortunately Artanis is able to escape Amon's grasp and is dead set in destroying him by reuniting the Protoss. Artanis seeks to bring the Khali, Nerazim and Purifiers (sentient robots) into a new era, recognizing the mistakes they made in the past from seeing themselves as superiors.

Humanity has been engaged in a xenocidal war with the Eldar for about ten thousand years and counting, and for around five hundred years or so with the Tau, whilst the Old Ones have been MIA since the Enslaver Plague nearly wiped out all life in the galaxy several million years ago. The Eldar as a species have a hard time behaving in a manner other than ultra-regimented anal douche or completely irresponsible sociopathic hedonist. They're superior to humans in terms of mind and body but they've definitely got some issues of the soul to work out. The Craftworld Eldar have actually managed to tune it down a notch since the fall of their race. The Dark Eldar are far worse about this, and are closer to what the combined race was like at it's height. The Tau on the other hand are just insufferably arrogant and naive because they were hunter-gatherers just a couple millennia ago and now have more advanced shinier technology (mostly, as they have no teleporters or real warp drive) than a species that has expanding across the galaxy for at least 30,000 years. While not a species as such, Adeptus Astartes are physically, mentally and spiritually superior to everyone else to the point it would take over a hundred men to match a single marine. They are, however, dicks about it. The best example is the Marines Malevolent, who not only consider ordinary humans as cannon fodder, but they consider themselves to be more important than other Space Marines.

They also view their fellow elven species, the Dark and Light elves from which their race is descended as inferior and almost all members of these species that live within their cities do so as slaves and are just as subjected to being invited for dinner in times of famine.

Superior Species / int_c0a81d9d	comment	Tomb of Horrors: Played with in the adventure novelization (an old D&D adventure known for frequent fatalities), where a former paladin and his partner, an elf swordsman, are contracted to help plunder the tomb. A magically-sealed door requires the sacrifice of a magic ring to open the door, and the elf passes over one that keeps the wearer comfortable in all temperatures, in lieu of someone sacrificing something more useful. The ex-paladin goes into a hilarious rant about how he'd thought all along that the elf would never sweat in the heat nor shiver in the cold because it was just another way elves are "so much better" than humans, and couldn't believe his misconception was all due to a simple trinket like that.

The Time Lords are effectively a superior race in most ways; but in the original series had degenerated into a race of effete, arrogant, navel-gazers and bureaucrats obsessed with maintaining the status quo; when they weren't actual jerkasses. In the in the new series, they became power-mad elitists due to the horrors of the Time War; and were willing to sacrifice the rest of the universe in order to Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence.

Superior Species / int_cf3e7a82	comment	Superman: Kryptonians...maybe, sometimes. During the silver age, Krypton is a straight Crystal Spires and Togas. One of the major changes Post-Crisis (partially based on the 1978 movie) was to massively deconstruct the "rightful heir of a superior species" aspect of Superman by taking the Fridge Logic inherent in Krypton's destruction to its logical end (why exactly didn't they figure out their planet was dying, and why didn't they have the means to escape if they had the means to send Kal-El to Earth?) The result was reasoning that Kryptonians were so elitist and arrogant that they were extreme xenophobes who never did any serious space travel because they considered all other life inferior to them, and (with the exception of Jor-El) were too vain to consider the possibility that their planet might be falling apart. The result is that instead of being miserable and lonely on earth, Superman had a very low opinion of Kryptonians for many years, (not helped by the fact that both a hologram of his father and a sentient Kryptonian computer program tried to Mind Rape him to purge him of his acquired humanity) and still secretly considers himself lucky to have grown up on earth instead of Krypton. Their distant cousins, the Daxamites, are not just xenophobic but outright genocidal toward other sentient species. This has come back to bite them in their asses more than once, especially when the Sinestro Corps invaded Daxam. The beings of the Fifth Dimension are a race of reality warpers, which the trickster Mr. Mxysptlk is a member. Mxysptlk is considered an outcast amongst his own people because he uses his abilities to mess with the people of the third dimension, mostly Superman, which is forbidden by their society. Not out of any benevolence on their part, but because they consider themselves so superior that they don't think they should have any contact with the third dimension at all, much less screw with "lesser lifeforms" like a sadistic child. If they spare any thought at all towards other races, it's Condescending Compassion at best.

Superior Species / int_d1fbfbbc	comment	Twilight vampires are practically immortal, really strong, and sparkly. Practically the definition of Cursed with Awesome. Also, as an exclusively predatory species, they cannot sustain nearly as high a population as humans, even in optimum conditions. Their long lifespan and inability to (usually) produce offspring of their own in a way that does not reduce the supply of food directly removes the incentive to develop new ideas and improvements for the next generation, removing the impetus for much innovation, making them less mentally productive than humans. Not only that, but according to Word of God, they don't feel physical pain as much as we do, yet sex is more pleasurable. They're smarter, and according to Edward, they feel love more strongly than humans as well. Cursed with Awesome? Not really. More like blessed with awesome.

On the other hand, better senses are exclusive to Wolfriders due to their non-elven heritage, it's insanely hard for them to produce offspring, and elven sex might actually be flat-out painful for humans. As far as personality goes, Winnowill proves that they can be just as wicked as humans. The tabletop game at least gives humans one advantage—elves are really, really bad at the sort of logical thinking required to make new inventions.

Superior Species / int_f74b5f80	comment	Babylon 5: The Vorlons are a prime example: an early episode in season 1 the crew of the titular space station come across a Mad Scientist guilty of genocidal war-crimes who has invented an immortality potion. What ensues is a conglomeration of all the major species as they fight and nearly go to war over who gets the potion (and the Mad Scientist) (all except the Vorlon ambassador who is busy playing mindgames with the resident telepath). Eventually the Terrans win out and it's decided the potion will be researched on Earth. All the ambassadors of all these very powerful competing races gather in the observation room to watch as the potion and its creator depart on a heavily armed ship on their way to Earth. Cue the Vorlon ship jumping out of hyperspace, and destroying the ship with one blast. Then it leaves. The ambassador walks in, says, "You Are Not Ready for immortality", then goes back to whatever he was doing before. There is a very good reason why every single one of these proud and warring species immediately shuts up. Then there are the Lumati, who never shut up about everyone else's inferiority.

Superior Species / int_fb9c177d	comment	Transformers Cybertronians are almost always described as superior, at least physically and technologically, to humans when the two species are compared (mostly by Decepticons, who tend to refer to us as "insects"). They are a species of Mechanical Life Form that all have the ability to change their form into almost anything of their choice, have far superior weaponry and travel capabilities and can individually live for thousands or even millions of years, so they probably wouldn't be wrong in thinking along those lines. This has been subverted on a few occasions in which humans have been shown to utterly thrash transformers. One example of this was a battle in IDW comics between Colonel Witwicky and Scrapper, which resulted in Scrapper's head being blown off by his own gun. Also it's outright stated in Beast Wars that one of the reasons the Autobots would beat the Decepticons was because humans were helping them. It's also been commented on that Humanity does at least stop having wars for extended periods of time, while Cybertron and its peoples have been in a constant state of civil war for longer than humanity has existed. Also humanity has the ability to adapt and change real fast, compared to the Cybertronians who barely have done anything new for millions of years.

Superior Species / int_fcf43f47	comment	Fighting Fantasy: Titan, a book that functions as an background on the world most of the gamebooks are set in, indulges this trope when discussing the elves, but in practice it emerges more as an Informed Ability considering that most of the world's great heroes and wizards tend to be human, and most of the world-shaking events are orchestrated or thwarted by humans. Statistically, most elves are decent fighters, although certainly nothing that most human adventurers can't handle. A possible justification occurs when Titan mentions that the elves have been suffering a long, slow decline since the Götterdämmerung and Apocalypse Hows that have struck the world of Titan over the centuries. As a further subversion, while the flavor text in Titan treats the elves this way, most of the elves you actually meet in the gamebooks are generally pretty nice, if occasionally suspicious of human strangers who pass through their territory.

The author, who hated both the perfectionist depiction of elves and the vicious backlash against them which often depicts elves as the Butt-Monkey of any given setting, instead depicts the elves of Greyhawk as being truly gifted and exceptional in a variety of areas... but they've never managed to parlay these talents into widespread power or even unity. When it comes to magic and nature, elves are rightly known for their amazing skills, but they've always been extremely fractured and divided, due largely to infighting among the elven gods when they were first created, which prompted the newly born elven race to split into several factions.
