Incorruptible Pure Pureness/Playing With

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Basic Trope: A character who is purely good and can't be corrupted.

  • Straight: Jason the Goody-Goody has increased his goodness and purity by going to church.
  • Exaggerated: Seven Heavenly Virtues.
  • Justified: Jason the Goody-Goody doesn't want to fall to evil.
  • Inverted: Jason is the emperor of darkness, a Complete Monster.
  • Subverted: Jason appears to be pure... and then he drives over the speed limit.
  • Double Subverted: He feels so horrible about it that he never does anything bad again.
  • Parodied: The only good thing Jason has done in his entire life is donating to charity, but everybody (including himself) treat him afterwards as if he's purely good and incorruptible.
  • Deconstructed: Being incorruptible has a price on Jason: he's forced to suppress all of the evil inside of him. This eventually creates an Enemy Without, who is a Complete Monster.
    • See Parodied. Because everyone treats him as purely good and incorruptible, he suscessfully and gleefully crosses the Moral Event Horizon, and nobody suspects a thing.
  • Reconstructed: Jason realizes that suppressing the evil in him was the reason for the Enemy Without. After defeating the Enemy Without, he becomes more relaxed in terms of morality, but he's still incorruptible and pure.
  • Zig Zagged: Sometimes Jason is Incorruptible Pure Pureness, sometimes he's a Complete Monster, and sometimes he's somewhere in between. It's Depending on the Writer.
  • Lampshaded: "This guy's going to have a special place in Heaven."
  • Enforced: The creators wanted a character that could never be evil no matter how you looked at him.
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: Emperor Evulz tricks the innocent Jason into bringing him the Artifact of Doom that only someone with no inner evil could ever reach.
  • Defied: ???
