Line 23:
* [[Dragon With an Agenda]] - when he has different goals from the Big Bad.
* [[The Heavy]] - The "active" villain that drives most of the plot. This is more often the Dragon than the Big Bad, since most authors want to keep the Big Bad in the background and mysterious for most of the story.
* [[My Master, Right or Wrong]] - When the Dragon does things he doesn't agree with out of loyalty to the Big Bad. They will often be an [[Anti-Villain]] in this case.
* [[Noble Top Enforcer]] - When the Dragon is an [[Anti-Villain]] that is considerably more virtuous than his master. Likely to turn on the Big Bad if their actions piss him off enough.
* [[Number Two for Brains]] - When the Dragon is an idiot.
Line 34:
For literal dragons and their permutations, see [[Our Dragons Are Different]]. Not to be confused with [[Dragon Lady]], who is more likely to be a Big Bad than the Dragon, or ''[[Dragon]]'', which was a magazine. Definitely not to be confused with [[The Savage Dragon]]. The heroic version of this trope is [[Number Two]] or [[The Lancer]], or [[The Hero]] in a [[Big Good]] vs Big Bad scenario. See also: [[The Man Behind the Man]], [[Hypercompetent Sidekick]], [[Psycho for Hire]], [[The Consigliere]].
Considering that calling someone a bad person in [[Real Life]] isn't a good idea, not to mention subjective, '''[[No Real Life Examples, Please|No real life examples, please]].'''
