Category:Trickster

Often more of an annoying nuisance than a fearsome or dangerous enemy, a trickster may take many forms, from a con man to a mischievous imp. Adventures with trickster type villains tend to be light and comedy oriented and the hero typically finds a way to defeat them non-violently. Sometimes there may be a lesson learned from the trickster, even if unintentional. Best example of such a character is Mister Mxyzptlk, who torments the heroes of the DC Comics Universe, especially Superman. Other examples of Trickster: The Trickster from Supernatural or Naraku.
