Stupid Evil

Yes, Lawful Stupid has it's Evil counterpart. A general trait of Stupid Evil is doing evil things for the sake of being evil, rather than because they are (morality aside) an easy or viable way towards wealth, power or to achieve some personal goal such as revenge. Especially when a non evil, or less evil way of doing things would work better.

Examples of Stupid Evil

• Joffrey Baratheon
  • He sends an assassin armed with a Valyrian Blade (an unusual weapon for a sellsword) to kill Bran Stark. And when that fails, iut causes the Starks to suspect the Lannisters.
  • He kills Eddard Stark, therefore sparking an unnecessary and very costly civil war (and this was against what his family had planned).
  • He chooses to ignore his duties and the welfare of his people in favor of satiating his sadistic behavior.
  • He has one of his Kingsguard to murder his Uncle Tyrion in the middle of the battle of blackwater instead of just simply poisoning him (as Tyrion pointed out).
  • He calls Tywin a coward. Luckily for him, they were related. Because if he wasn't, he would have been struck down.
• Cersei Lannister
• Any Captain Planet villain
• Some followers of Chaos such as Firaeveus Carron can prove to be this most of the time.
