Reservoir Dogs/Characters

Mr. White

 * Affably Evil: He is the most polite of the robbers, tips waitresses, and has a distaste for killing innocent people, but as  found out the hard way, "just because he's a nice guy doesn't mean he won't kill you."
 * Anti-Villain: Type I
 * Badass
 * Berserk Button - "Don't you call me an asshole!"
 * Big Brother Mentor - to Orange.
 * Even Evil Has Standards - He doesn't kill civilians. And he always tips waitresses.
 * Hair-Trigger Temper
 * The Hero: A villainous example.
 * Jerkass: Although less so than Mr. Pink and Nice Guy Eddie.
 * Large Ham
 * The McCoy
 * Rated "M" for Manly: "Shit, you shoot me in a dream and you better wake up and apologize" and other general badassery. Makes his extremely unmanly, undignified sobbing at the end of the movie all the more jarring.
 * Noble Demon: In some ways.

 * The Lancer
