Line 86:
** I will cut my hair short so it will not get in the way, or provide a handle for kidnappers to grab, if I cannot cut it for some reason, I will habitually wear it in a tight bun, and always carry extra ribbons, elastic bands, or what have you in case it comes undone. The Hero is, or should be, in love with me, not my long flowing tresses. Also, if I am attempting to remain unseen I will not wear anything brightly coloured or sparkly in my hair as that is generally detrimental to stealth.
* ''If you are none of those, refer to this very page.''
** The "[https://web.archive.org/web/20120110142829/http://www.herogames.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-22741.html When I Am The Benevolent Ruler]" list begins with, "As a general rule, I will remember that I am not the [[Evil Overlord]], and should avoid doing things that confuse people on this point."
*** Something about this list makes this troper feel like it was written by [[Discworld|Lord Vetinari]], particularly lines like "The Evil Overlord kills for fun and profit. The Good Overlord kills for the good of his nation".
*** I will try to be as [[Lawful Good]] as possible and to be a [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]. Being [[Lawful Evil]] is obviously out of the question but it would most likely do me some good that I not become [[Lawful Neutral]] either. (In other words, don't assume that doing whats Lawful and doing whats right are always the same.) If my lands legal rules are forcing the people who serve me to say [[Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right]], then there is a very strong chance that something is wrong.
