Line 26:
** In ''[[Carpe Jugulum]]'', the Magpyrs' Igor gets [[Beleaguered Assistant|increasingly fed up]] with not only their lack of respect for [[Good Old Ways|vampiric tradition]], but their condescending [[Social Darwinist]] attitude, complaining constantly that "the old marther" never went as far as the current bunch. This eventually drives him to [[Heel Face Turn|side with the witches]].
** There's also the Thieves' Guild, which takes a very hostile attitude towards unlicensed theft. The Guild also requires thieves to stamp a receipt for the "customer", so the same people aren't hit too often or for too much.
** In ''[[Going Postal (Discworld)The Fifth Elephant]],'' It's insinuated that even [[Rich Bitch|Serefine von Uberwald]] was horrified by some of the actions of her son [[Complete Monster|Wolfgang,]] which included {{spoiler|altering the family tradition of [[Hunting the Most Dangerous Game]] so that the human prey had no chance at survival}} and {{spoiler|murdering his infant sister because she wasn't able to change form like "proper" werewolves.}}
** ''[[Thud!]]'' has Chrysophrase of the troll mob, who doesn't deal in drugs. Well, not any more. And not the ''bad'' drugs, the kind that kill their users or cause them to become psychotic. Commander Vimes isn't impressed. Also during that book, one of his goons makes the mistake of making an indirect threat toward Vimes's family ("He knows where I live." "''Yeah'', he does."). Later, Chrysophrase says the threat was not on his orders, and the offending goon has been...dealt with, and incidentally would Vimes like a rockery for his garden?
** In ''[[Eric]]'', Astfgl's attempts to run Hell like a corporation disgust even the other demons.
