Arrogant

Value
Very Common, Moderate: 15 Points • Very Common, Strong: 20 Points
Description
A character with this Complication thinks and acts as if he were simply superior to everyone around him. His attitude is marked by overweening pride and an utter lack of Humility. The character tends to not see his own errors and mistakes, to the point that he will be skeptical of any attempts to show just how wrong he is. The character may not necessarily be unfriendly or rude about it, but nevertheless others will tend to see him as such simply because of his attitude of assumed superiority.
This The character isn't necessarily Conceited, as that Complication is more an attitude of "I am just so much better than you are", while this Complication is "I am just so good!" Likewise, he isn't necessarily Overconfident. He isn't necessarily a Narcissist, either, as he doesn't necessarily see himself as perfect.
It is not recommended that Player Characters take this Complication higher than the Moderate level, as it can get annoying to the other players very quickly if not done well. At the Strong level, the character requires an Ego Roll in order to tamp down his tendencies towards Arrogance.
This complication is sometimes known as Hubris. Snobbish is a more specific version of this Complication.
