The Ego Flaunt

For every molecule of water in their body, they have two bits of their own being.

The one who believes they're better than most others and look down upon them thinking accordingly. They talk to other people condescendingly as if they aren't worth the "privilege" of being in their presence, disregarding all who want to prove themselves. However, if whoever wants or needs to show the Ego Flaunt who's boss is trying to do so for plot-important reasons, the Flaunt will allow the other to proceed, setting aside their beliefs on how no one is worth their time. If the Flaunt is ever defeated in anything, they would hardly believe what happened and demand that they have a rematch with whoever "ruined" their reputation. However, if they win, they'll Throw Salt On The Wound on their opponent with a cocky smirk or passive-aggressive comment.

In whatever franchise they make an appearance in, the Ego Flaunt is nearly always depicted as a person with a narcissistic attitude towards others who uses passive-aggression when speaking to anyone they deem inferior. When the Main confronts the Ego Flaunt, they immediately dislike the character and will do anything to prove themselves to show the Ego Flaunt to not underestimate them. The Main can use every insult they can imagine, but nothing they say can pierce through the Ego Flaunt's indestructible hubris. Conversely, the Ego Flaunt's own words can tear the Main apart on the inside, but not in the sense of emotionally destroying them. Instead, the Main will become driven — sometimes even obsessed — with shutting the Ego Flaunt up and proving themselves.

If the Ego Flaunt plays sports, they may be a high-ranking player with a next-to-perfect record with hardly any defeats if any at all. They cockily mess around with the equipment they hold (e.g by twirling a tennis racket around with their finger through a hole in the strings, swinging a baseball bat at an imaginary ball, etc.) while they play as they could (or at least believe they could) easily do so and still win. If somebody challenges them, the Flaunt will do their trademarked talk-down before either telling them They Suck and denying them or accepting them only because the Flaunt had nothing better to do or wants to show how weak the challenger is.

Non-competitive Ego Flaunts also exist. These variants of the role have the same general personality as competitive Ego Flaunts with a slight twist. These characters tend to be richer and simply better off as a whole than the Main, which makes being treated like trash by them worse for the franchise's lead. With such an impressive social status, there isn't much that the Main can do other than futilely retaliate with weak insults.
