There is a character who is good at something, maybe skill, maybe talent, maybe both. He or she isn’t just above average at it, he/she’s good at it. Unfortunately their prowess is only matched by how much they like exercising that prowess. (current title may be a bit of a misnomer. They don't have to hate that what they are skilled at exists to qualify (although they can), they just have to hate doing it).
