I’m not sure wether it’s called Genre of trope or whatever . But there is characters like Kellhus from the Novels by SCOTT BAKKER { Prince Of Nothing }
& Sherlock Holmes by CONAN ARTHUR DOYLE
& Hannibal Lecter from the novels by THOMAS HARRIS { Red Dragon / Silence Of The Lambs }
& Light Yagami / L Lawliet from the manga { Death Note }
& Akiyama Shinishi + Baku Madarame + Akagi from the manga { Liar Game } + { Usogui } + { Akagi }
& Kleinn Moretti + Fang Yuan from the Chinese webnovels { Lord Of The Mysteries } + { Reverend Insanity }
The common factor between these guys is that they are all into the unrealistic Hyper-Genius or Hyper-Manipulator or Hyper-Scheming trope . Right ?
I want characters who are on the out-of-the-world level like these guys . I saw some others people asking for smart characters on this Sub . But they didn’t ask for guys like these who are at the peak of human intelligence potential or even beyond human level .
Basically if you have read any of the recommendations i mentioned . Then you know the level scale im asking for so try go give me all the characters you know who are 1 – ( close to these guy’s levels ) 2 – ( At their level ) 3 – ( even smarter )
And if you haven’t read any of these characters then just hit me with the smartest characters you have ever known from highest to lowest .
And sorry to trouble You Kind people with this long ass post and ranting 😅😅 . Thanks
