Neutral No Longer

rdfs:comment

There are many innocents in the epic battle between good and evil. Some people will join on the side of good because the evil invaders destroyed their home. A lot of people will join on the side of evil because Evil Is Sexy, Rule of Cool, or just 'cause. This Trope comes in two varieties. If the neutral faction happens to be able to crush both sides if they really wanted to, then someone has Awakened The Sleeping Giant, and chances are, it's about to Curb Stomp someone. Here's hoping it's not you. Compare Heroic Neutral, Default to Good. Examples of Neutral No Longer include:

There are many innocents in the epic battle between good and evil. Some people will join on the side of good because the evil invaders destroyed their home. A lot of people will join on the side of evil because Evil Is Sexy, Rule of Cool, or just 'cause. Then there are the people who deliberately try to stay out of the conflict. These could be the people in the Hidden Elf Village or the Actual Pacifist. Often they don't have a dog in the fight either way or they're just opportunists supporting both sides. No matter how you slice it these people don't support either side more or less than any other side. That is, until the good guys turn out to be a bunch of self righteous jerkasses or the villains Kick the Dog. At that point, it's on and there's going to be hell to pay. This Trope comes in two varieties. * The first kind is rather straight up. The neutral party is undecided until the villains decide to desecrate the Crystal Dragon Jesus. Then the neutral party will oppose the villains from then on. * The second kind is less frequently used. As it turns out sometimes heroes and villains are really bad at making first impressions. After initially meeting the heroes the neutral party will decide that evil is so much cooler and join them, or vice versa. This isn't a Heel Face Turn or a Face Heel Turn because these people were neutral at the start of the story and would have remained so if the villains and/or heroes weren't a bunch of a-holes. They will often start out as True Neutral and will usually only go out of the their way to oppose someone out of vengeance. If the neutral faction happens to be able to crush both sides if they really wanted to, then someone has Awakened The Sleeping Giant, and chances are, it's about to Curb Stomp someone. Here's hoping it's not you. Compare Heroic Neutral, Default to Good. Examples of Neutral No Longer include:
