"He Who Hunts Monsters", also known as "Falling Off the Slippery Slope", is a term used often to describe a phenomena in which a heroic or anti-heroic character becomes progressively worse as he or she fights percieved evils, to the point they become as bad (sometimes worse) than the evils they originally opposed. A great many heroes at some point undergo this transformation and it can be the key origin of many tragic villains, although rare due to it giving a character a Fruedian Excuse it can create Complete Monsters. In general however it is associated with Knight Templars and Vigilantes.
