In dramatic settings, no matter how much punishment a villain takes all that seems to really get them [[Berserk Button|riled up]] is [[It's All About Me|deliberate albeit minor injury]], especially across their face. Extremely potent with [[It's All About Me|egotists]], this tends to send the [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]] and [[The Fighting Narcissist]] into a foaming rage. Can also occur with characters who are [[Nigh Invulnerable]], where the overreaction is due to the fact that even inflicting a minor injury on the character is supposed to impossible; it might even be the first time that character has ''ever'' been injured.
