In an Animorphs fanfic my friend is writing, there is the loathsome alien named Mal Anaur. While reading the fanfic, I was constantly saying, "I really do not like you, Mal Anaur." He has the sarcastic voice, he treats his "technical" allies, the Animorphs, with incredible disdain, eventually taking a level in MagnificentBastard, making
one hell of a FaceHeelTurn and he only got worse. However, it turned to a subversion for me at least, because he got a CMOA at the end that made Mal Anaur very cool: after Jake did something perhaps more drastic than what he did in the books, Mal gives a WhatTheHellHero you would have to read to believe.
