One of my favorite tropes in fiction is when there is a character capable of infinite evil or destruction and they may even feel compelled to act on it, but they don’t. They are good or at least neutral.
When I say capable of infinite destruction, I don’t mean Superman or Spider-Man or someone just with superpowers. They are good guys! They aren’t really capable of being evil (at least… not without some outside force). I’m talking about a character that is a monster but keeps it in check or at least makes sure to direct that energy toward other monsters.
Some examples may be The Terminator (in T2), Dexter, Paarthurnax, maybe Edward from Twilight, some Venom versions, John Wayne Cleaver, Remus Lupin kind of, Death Knights in WoW, some depictions of Harley Quinn/the Suicide Squad
