Master Manipulators

These heroes are a specific type of Mastermind, highly intelligent heroes who are able to manipulate others to do activities and actions for them.

They excel at driving wedges between allies or former rivals, forming tons of friendships, destroying the inflated ego of other villains, controlling other people, or even just causing uplifting moments via manipulating the nature of society, individuals, or the system. Many of them are capable of causing revolutionary and resourceful acts of heroism before they are even seen as suspects. Thus, they are among very smart heroes, especially when combined with imaginative tendencies to their strategies.

While manipulation is usually a villainous trait, sometimes heroes can have good intentions regarding their manipulation, as it can be the best way to defeat enemies. Even pure of heart heroes can be manipulative if it truly necessary for the greater good.
