Category:Sociopaths

Many of these villains may have been either shown some empathy at the start, but then started to lose their empathy/sanity leading to them forgetting moralities between right and/or wrong. A tragic event may have started to change the protagonist into a different type of person with different beliefs. Some may have been delusional or dimwitted. Some could have been corrupted at times by more corrupting villains that have much of an impact on such.

These types of villains are not to be confused with Psychopaths that are more born that way, while sociopaths may have some empathy, while some Psychopaths don't have any actual feelings at all. Some of these types of villains in fiction may not always be Complete Monster as much as Psychopaths would be more likely to be such.
