Are there any characters that you think are NPD-coded? (lemmy.ml)

I across this interesting page on Wikipedia called "Characters With Narcissistic Personality Disorder" and I was very surprised by the characters that will included. I never thought of Patrick Bateman or Bender as having NPD before. There are some obvious ones like the Wicked Witch from Snow White and Gaston from Beauty And The Beast but are there any others.

Yeah, Patrick Bateman seems pretty plainly obvious to me also

The problem with analyzing Patrick Bateman is that it's like analyzing Jason Voorhees or Mike Myers. Bateman doesn't really have a character outside of just being a sadist.
