*** Considering said maniac was really {{spoiler|using}} [[Monster Clown|Trode's court jester]] {{spoiler|as a temporary vessel}} [[Who's Laughing Now?|on a mission of revenge against those who had belittled him]], there probably should have been a lesson in there somewhere.
*** He ''does'' eventually come to understand that simply being a king doesn't entitle him to order everyone around. Sure, he does it ''anyway'', but later in the game, there's a distinct shift from "Do it because I tell you" to "Please help me do this".
* Marietta in ''[[Knights in The Nightmare]]'', at least in Maria's route; happily enough, Maria is ''mortified'' at what Marietta's pride led to, and {{spoiler|the other half of Marietta's soul}}, Melissa, is more worried about finding Ancardia than her dignity. We're introduced to Marietta's usual [[Good Is Not Nice|nasty attitude]] in ''[[Yggdra Union]]'' {{spoiler|and ''[[Riviera: theThe Promised Land]]''}}, along with [[Break the Haughty|Meria's route]]. (And for [[Ax Crazy|all]] [[Heroic Sociopath|her]] [[Chaotic Neutral|flaws]], Meria's own pride doesn't stop her from being a loyal and caring individual. Marietta's still does.)
* Clearly "inspired" by ''The Emperor's New Groove'', Dragon Prince Ao-Jun of ''[[Tradewinds]] Caravans'' is turned into a lowly talking camel as punishment for a life of debauchery and caravan-eating, and must do one truly selfless deed to regain his true form. It goes about as well as you might think, and he briefly becomes an invisible lowly talking camel after denouncing his faith (of which he is a deity) to tithe a ridiculous sum of someone else's money to heathens because it was just the easiest thing he could think of.
