Elitists

Villains who believe in the superiority of those with a higher social status and greater amounts of wealth. Many elitist villains throughout fiction with that worldview are shown as enemies of heroes who come from poor or middle-class backgrounds. Many of these villains tend to be obsessed with the manners, wealth, and clothes of others.

Elitists are often of theLawful orNeutral Evil alignments, since they deeply value their status within a society and use it to look down on others, at its most extreme it can manifest such cruel behavior as support of slavery, the suppression of the poor or socially awkward, active bullying / shunning of "outsiders" and even the outright torture or murder of those deemed socially "unappealing" (though this would ultimately cross them into becoming a Genocidal character).

In most stories, theChaotic Good hero is the archetypical enemy of these kinds of characters, especially folk heroes andtrickster heroes - who delight in making those of snobbish nature suffer for their unjust actions towards the poor (whom the "good" aligned would argue are the people most in need of the aid of those of higher wealth or social rank).

They are the polar opposite ofegalitarian andspoiled heroes.
