Sorting Algorithm of Face Heel Turning/WMG

Using the scientifically Infallible power of the Sorting Algorithm of Face Heel Turning, who do you think is the next in line for changing sides?

To use the Algorithm, take each column's "Score", divide it by the number of applicable rows in the column, repeat for every column, and add the results together.

Algorithm of Face/Heel turning
Just to see if Gandalf with his wisdom should have predicted Saruman's Face/Heel turn: 22:8 = 2.75 We can't blame Gandalf for his surprise, though Saruman's lack of a clear motivation should have given him pause to think.
 * Species: Hm... what are wizards, actually? But they're very near to a superior species: 1
 * Gender: Male, 4
 * Age: He was supposed to be older and wiser, 2
 * Role: He was a freelancer, wasn't he? 4
 * Aesthetics: Dignified, 2
 * Motivation for doing good: What was his? 5
 * Characterization: Likes to play with dangerous stuff, though Gandalf didn't know that, did he? I'll leave that out.
 * Contentness: Was not known beforehand either.
 * Morality of the story: Black and white, 2
 * Idealism: Quite idealistic, 2

Let's see if evilly charming Road from D.Gray-man will have to go the way of villains: 2,94. Cuteness and Allen might yet save her but the Moral Event Horizon is looming not far away.
 * Species: Everyone's human, I'll leave this out.
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Age: About 12 or so, let's say child, 2
 * Role: Quirky miniboss, 3
 * Aesthetics: Cute in a loli way, lets say 4,5
 * Motivation: Roady really likes to play rough but also likes the earl and her fellow Noah, make it 3
 * Characterization: unpredictable, nuts 2
 * Contentness: Road is having a lot of fun, 1
 * Morality of the story: The main characters are mostly good, the earl and the Noah are evil. The Black Order is very gray: 3
 * Idealism: pretty idealistic, the hero of the story is a messiah, 4
 * Given that Road has been revealed to be considerably older than she looks and she's been over the Moral Event Horizon for the entire series, her chances don't look good.

Abbey Gray from The Secret Saturdays. Already turned once, will she be going back in season two?
 * Species: Human, 3
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Age: Young Adult, 4
 * Role: It's not entirely clear, but since she saw the opportunity to become Van Rook's new apprentice and seized on it, I'd say opportunist, definitely. 2.
 * Asthetics: Definitely Evil Is Sexy. 4.
 * Motivation: Money, Dear Boy. 2.
 * Characterization: Somewhere between 3 and 4. She is somewhat cold-blooded but she does have some honor too, so... 3.5
 * Contentness: I'd say she's doing pretty well. 2.
 * Morality of the Story: Definitely some shades of grey with characters like Doyle. 3.
 * Idealism of the Story: There's some serious moments, but it's a mostly silly-hearted series, so 4.
 * 31.5/10 = 3.15
 * VERY close to the middle but leaning ever-so-slightly toward a turn back to the good guys. It's definitely 50/50 and one of the more intriguing questions left to be answered as the show gears up for a third season.

Azula from Avatar: The Last Airbender. Can a hug and a glass of milk from mommy really redeem this broken-down villain, or is she evil now and forever?
 * Species: Despite the presence of some other sentient non-human beings, this one is largely irrelevant.
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Age: She WAS a Creepy Child, but she's a teenager now, so 5.
 * Role: The Dragon, 4
 * Asthetics: Evil Is Sexy, 4
 * Motivation: Though she COULD be classified as a "Well Done, Son" Guy, all but the most sympathetic interpretations of her character have her in it for power, or even just For the Evulz. 2 for now, but your mileage will vary BIG TIME.
 * Characterization: Once cold, calm, and collected, but now totally bats*** crazy. 2
 * Contentness: Hard to say. Used to be enjoying every minute (though some argue that a lot of that behavior was a facade to make herself scary and strong), but started angsting HEAVILY in the finale, one of the reasons a lot of fans started to sympathize with her toward the end. 1 OR 5, depending on your interpretation.
 * Morality of the Story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, especially toward the end of season two. 4
 * Idealism of the Story: Very idealistic, again, especially toward the end. 5
 * 31/9 = 3.4 OR 35/9 = 3.9 (maybe even higher if people decide she deserves a higher score for Motivation)
 * Despite some admittedly unrepentantly evil moments, even a somewhat unsympathetic interpretation of Azula's character gives a somewhat optimistic number, owing to Azula's age and gender and the series' idealistic mindset in general. If there's ever a post-finale special or even a fourth season, chances range from just above 50/50 to actually pretty good that Azula will eventually see the light...

Following the Avatar thread, Jet. Should the Gaang have listened to Sokka?
 * Species: Despite the presence of some other sentient non-human beings, this one is largely irrelevant.
 * Gender: Male, 4
 * Age: Teenager, 4
 * Role: Freelancer, 4
 * Asthetics: Attractive, 1
 * Motivation: It seemed to be just because it was the right thing to do, so 1 (in reality, it was 3)
 * Characterization: He seemed to come off as an Anti-Hero at first, so 2 (in reality, it was 4)
 * Contentness: He seemed to be doing all right, so 2 (in reality, it was 4)
 * Morality of the Story: Black and White at the time, so 2
 * Idealism of the Story: Very much so, 1
 * 21/9 = 2.3. They never saw it coming. Sokka was just paying extra attention.
 * And to follow up, just how likely is it that the saw the error of his ways?
 * Species: Irrelevant
 * Gender: Male, 2
 * Age: Teenager, 5
 * Role: Still a Freelancer, so 5
 * Asthetics: Attractive, 5
 * Motivation: Well Intentioned Extremist, 4
 * Characterization: I would say he has some sense of honor, 4
 * Contentedness: Calmer and less emotionally troubled, but still unwell, so 3
 * Morality of the Story: The Good The Bad And The Evil, especially toward the end of season two, 4
 * Idealism of the Story: Very idealistic, again, especially toward the end. 5
 * 37/9 = 4.1 He really did realize he was wrong, and was honestly trying to do better.

Let's do Ozai's angels and compare it with Zuko. Ty Lee:
 * Species: Irrelevant.
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Age: Teenager, 5.
 * Role: Quirky Miniboss Squad, 3
 * Asthetics: Cute, 5
 * Motivation: Because Azula is her friend. 5
 * Characterization: Plain nuts. 2
 * Contentness: Enjoying every minute. Well, this one shouldn't count, Ty Lee doesn't like doing the evil, she is mostly playing a game. 1
 * Morality of the Story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, especially toward the end of season two. 4
 * Idealism of the Story: Very idealistic, again, especially toward the end. 5
 * 34/9 = 3.8
 * More than Azula, except in the most favorable interpretation for the princess. Unless of course, you decide not to count her score for contentness, leaving 33/8 = 4.1

Mai:
 * Species: Irrelevant.
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Age: Teenager, 5.
 * Role: Quirky Miniboss Squad, 3
 * Asthetics: Attractive, 5
 * Motivation: Her country. 5
 * Characterization: Lawful Evil, 3.
 * Contentness: Neutral. Bored, off course. 3
 * Morality of the Story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, especially toward the end of season two. 4
 * Idealism of the Story: Very idealistic, again, especially toward the end. 5
 * 37/9 = 4.1
 * So she is the most likely of the angels to become good.

And at last… Zuko:
 * Species: Irrelevant.
 * Gender: Male, 2
 * Age: Teenager, 5.
 * Role: Arrogant Kung Fu Guy, 5
 * Asthetics: Fangirls will scream Evil Is Sexy, but if you ask him, Red Right Hand, so 2.
 * Motivation: OK, this one is too easy. You could be the trope namer for this, Zuko. 5
 * Characterization: Not only he has some Evil Virtues, he is completely lost. 4.5.
 * Contentness: Angst, angst, angst... Sometimes Zuko would deserve 10, but the highest is 5.
 * Morality of the Story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, especially toward the end of season two. 4
 * Idealism of the Story: Very idealistic, again, especially toward the end. 5
 * 37.5/9 = 4.2
 * OK, so at first I thought ATLA subverted the algorithm because Zuko is a boy with a deforming scar and Azula is an attractive girl. But even taking that into account, Zuko was the most likely to have an Heel Face Turn.

Just for the lulz, let's see how likely it is that Ozai's time in prison will help him see the light:
 * Species: Irrelevant
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: Middle Aged - 3
 * Role: Big Bad - 1
 * Asthetics: Evil Is Sexy - 4
 * Motivation: He's a Complete Monster, but he has shades of being a Social Darwinist. Let's call it 1.5.
 * Characterization: Obviously Evil - 1
 * Contentness: Enjoying every minute - 1
 * Morality of the Story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil - 4
 * Idealism of the Story: Idealistic - 5
 * 22.5/9 = 2.5. So there's not quite a 50/50 chance that he will. It's unlikely he's learning anything.

Perhaps I shouldn't... but what will become of Sasuke? Most expect him to be brought back by Naruto, yet many yearn to see him die as a villain deserves.
 * Species: Despite the sentient frogs, human is the standard, I'll leave this out.
 * Gender: Male. 2
 * Age: He turned as a child, but now he is a teenager, 5
 * Role: Freelancer, rival turned evil: 5
 * Aesthetics: Sasuke is one cute teenie, isn't he?: 5
 * Motivation: By now he nearly is Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds: 3
 * Characterization: Stupid... uhm, lost and confused: 5
 * Contentness: Life is hard, 4
 * Morality: The good, Naruto and co., the bad, Team Hawk and the evil, Akatsuki: 4
 * Naruto is very idealistic, 5
 * 38:9=4.2. He's coming back, believe it.

Another Naruto character, since there is now a theory on the WMG page that Kisame will turn face. Let's see how this measures up.
 * Species: Hardly looks human at all, and he's said in terms of power to be like "A tailed beast, without the tails." I'd say he's inhuman. 1.
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: Young adult - 3
 * Role: One of Madara's two dragons. 4.
 * Aesthetics: Monstrous - 1
 * Motivation: He's a Blood Knight, so I'd say his motivation is somewhere between For the Evulz and hubris. 2.
 * Characterization: Cold blooded - 3
 * Contentness: Seems to be doing well. 2.
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil - 4
 * Idealism - Idealistic. 5.
 * Total: 27/10 = 2.7. Not too out there, but it still looks somewhat unlikely.

Now, Topher from Dollhouse. A tough one. Joss Whedon loves to play with morality on the series. Topher has been stated, in-show, to have no morals, yet given the events of "Belonging" it's clear something's going to snap. Adelle DeWitt
 * Gender: Male - 2.
 * Age: Adult but extremely immature; we'll split the difference and say young adult - 3.
 * Role: Key player, but also an independent contractor - 5.
 * Asthetics: Sort of geeky-cute - 3 or 4. We'll go with 4.
 * Motivation: For Science!! with a god-complex - 2.
 * Characterization: At the start, 2, but showed a need for people to like and accept his work. As of "Belonging", he's realising the implications of his work, pushing him right over into "lost and confused" - 5.
 * Contentness: At the start, he was lost in the science and in his cool toys, so 1. Now he's been faced with the amorality of some of the upper echelon, he's thought seriously for the first time about what he actually does - 4.
 * Morality: Black and Grey Morality, shading into Grey and Gray Morality at times. It's a Whedon show; it might change at any time. Right now we're at 3.
 * Idealism: It exists,but it usually comes up short against reality - 2.
 * 30/9 = 3.3. This is where it breaks down. He could change at any time during the series, but he's very definitely on DeWitt's side, and that particular loyalty is not in question. The only question is if she decides to go against her bosses.
 * Update:
 * Female - 4.
 * Older - 1.
 * High-ranking - 4.
 * Evil Is Sexy - 4.
 * No idea what her motivation is - 3.
 * Even Evil Has Standards - 4.
 * Life is hard - 4.
 * Grey and Gray Morality - 3.
 * Idealism: 2.
 * 25/9 = 2.7. She might be further from turning than we think, but we can probably count on it by the end of the season.
 * Update:

Charmcaster (Ben 10 Alien Force):
 * Species: Human - 3.
 * Gender: Female - 4.
 * Age: Young Adult - 4.
 * Role: Freelancer, The Only One Allowed to Defeat You - 5.
 * Asthetics: Evil Is Sexy - 4.
 * Motivation: Somewhere between ambitious and The Rival - 2.5.
 * Characterization: Somewhat cold-blooded - 3.
 * Contentness: Neutral, for now - 3.
 * Morality: Shades of gray, what with Kevin and all - 3.
 * Idealism: Really idealistic, actually. - 5.
 * Total: 36.5/10 = 3.65. There's a decent chance she may turn once more of her character background is revealed (which, according to Word of God, will happen in Ben 10: Ultimate Alien.) She's definitely not as evil as Kevin was, and he turned face (of course, alot of reasoning behind his turn ignores his previous characterization entirely.)
 * Update:

We know that Griffith of Berserk went bad in a big way at the end of the anime, but what can the numbers tell us about whether or not we (and the Hawks) should have seen that big Face Heel Turn coming?
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Young Adult, much like Guts - 5
 * Role: Griffith is the leader of the Hawks, and though Guts is the protagonist of the series in general, the Hero role in the Five-Man Band is most definitely Griffith - 1
 * Aesthetics: White-Haired Pretty Boy - 5
 * Motivation for doing good: He wants to rule a kingdom of his own, so I would chalk it up to glory - 5
 * Characterization: He's rather arrogant, though not in a hot-headed way, and the "playing with dangerous stuff" definitely qualifies if you take that Crimson Behelit into consideration. - 4
 * Contentness: And here's where things get tricky. When we first meet Griffith, he's doing well, which would net him about a 2 result. Then Guts leaves him, he has sex with the princess and gets put to the torture for a year, and he gets pushed past the Despair Event Horizon when he finds out about Guts and Casca's relationship, which brings him to about the 5 mark near the end.
 * Morality of the Story: Black and Gray all the way. - 5
 * Cynicism of the Story: And pretty far on the cynical end of the Sliding Scale to boot. - 5
 * Total: Griffith at the start of the Hawks arc: 39/10 = 3.9, while Griffith near the end: 42/10 = 4.2. In either case, Guts and company definitely should have seen that big Face Heel Turn from Griffith coming.

Now let's see how close Guts himself was to becoming just like those he fights... Total score: 35/10 = 3.5. So he wasn't quite as bad as Griffith, but it's still good he woke up when he did...
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Young Adult - 5
 * Role: The Hero, as he is the protagonist of the series in general - 1
 * Aesthetics: Overall, he's pretty handsome - 1
 * Motivation: At his worst, he really driven purely by revenge, and really didn't give a damn about others - 5
 * Characterization: He could be the poster boy for Byronic Hero - 2
 * Contentness: Life was pretty damn hard for him - 4
 * Morality: Black and Grey - 5
 * Idealism: It would be hard to find something much more cynical than this series- 5

And to update, how is Guts now that he has a good gang with him? Will he succumb to the Inner Beast? Total score: 31/10 = Ok. So it's an improvement, but things are still tense. The battle with the Inner Beast could really go either way at this point...
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Still a young adult - 5
 * Role: The Hero - 1
 * Aesthetics: Attractive - 1
 * Motivation: I think his main priority now is really to take care of his companions (especially Casca) - 2
 * Characterization: Still quite a Byronic Hero - 2
 * Contentness: Doing better, but still has troubles - 3
 * Morality: 5
 * Cynicism: 5

As of Episode 24, one of the plot points in Gundam AGE is that someone in Flit Asuno's crew is a Vagan spy. Surely his right-hand man Frederick Algreus isn't a Vagan... is he? Let's find out.


 * Species: Contrary to what the Fan Dumb wants you to believe, everyone in this series is human. 3.
 * Gender: Male, 4.
 * Age: Young Adult. Definitely younger than Flit Asuno who's more Middle-Aged. 5.
 * Role: He's currently the strategist for the Earth Federal Forces. He's also the right-hand man for Flit Asuno, so he's a 5.
 * Aesthetics: His looks can make Gundam fangirls pass out. 1.
 * Motivation: What's his reasoning for fighting against Vagan again? 5.
 * Character: He certainly isn't an arrogant, bitter guy. Let's say a 2.
 * Contentness: He doesn't seem to hate his position in the Earth Federal Forces. It's a 3 in my book.
 * Morality: Black and Gray Morality in full force in this series. 5.
 * Idealism: Despite the kiddy art style, AGE rivals the Universal Century when it come to idealism. 5.

Result: 38/10: 3.8. Well, looks like someone prefers tofu over meat. In all seriousness, Flit better watch his back, because Frederick is going to show his true colors very soon.
 * Update:

The Big Bads from the first two seasons of Veronica Mars (beware spoilers).

Aaron Echolls.
 * Species: Irrelevant, given it's an all human show.
 * Gender: Male (2)
 * Age: Middle Aged (3)
 * Role: Big Bad (1)
 * Aesthetics: Informed Attractiveness (4? 5? 4.5)
 * Motivation: Gah, complicated. Beats Logan because he's a nutjob. Kills Lilly to keep sleeping with her secret. Does other things to get away with killing Lilly. I'll go with 2.
 * Characterization: *shrug* Once we find out he killed Lilly, he goes pretty flat character... but he had some Pet the Dog moments before. He's pretty bats*** crazy, so I'll go with 2.
 * Contentment: He seems pretty cheerful most of the time, so 2.
 * Morality: Black and Gray? Ish? (1)
 * Idealism: Cynical (1)

18.5/9 = 2. Not really gonna happen. (Well, he's dead, so...)

Cassidy Casablancas
 * Gender: Male (2)
 * Age: Teenaged (5)
 * Role: Big Bad (1)
 * Aesthetics: YMMV. I found him pretty Evil Is Sexy, but not everyone would have. But I'll go with 4 anyway.
 * Motivation: Again, kinda complicated. With the biggest thing (the bus crash), it was desperation to avoid people finding out about how he was abused. Which is kinda between 3 and 2. (2.5)
 * Characterization: ...GAH I HATE YOU. He seemed pretty Obviously Evil up on the roof (1), but cold blooded (3) might fit better. He's bats*** crazy (2), but due to Freudian Excuse, gets considered "lost and confused" a lot (5). Especially just before he jumped. Averages say 2.
 * Contentment: Given he kills himself in the end, he wasn't having it easy. (5)
 * Morality of story: Black and Gray (1)
 * Idealism: Cynical (1)

23.5/9 = 2.6. Unlikely. (And he's also dead, so I'm not sure these had that much of a point...)

Count Veger

Let's see if ThisTroper's gift of cowhide trousers is completely unjustified...


 * Species: "Human" (3)
 * Gender: Male (2)
 * Age: Older (1)
 * Role:Some consider him a BigBad, others would say he's an Opportunist, so either a (1) or a (2)
 * Aesthetics: Either genuinely ugly or just feeling the effects of age (3)
 * Motivation: Knight Templar (4)
 * Characterization: Lawful Evil and Even Evil Has Standards, so either a (3) or (4).
 * Contentness: The strategy guide said he was generally unhappy, so we'll say "life is hard" (4)
 * Morality of the story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil (4)
 * Idealism of the story: Kind of split between Idealistic and Cynical, so (3)


 * 28/10 or 30/10= Between 2.8 and 3. Probably not going to happen, at least not without a significant Freudian Excuse.

Time to look at how Cosmo Entelachia fares on this front: Fate
 * Species: Human enough (3)
 * Gender: Male (2)
 * Age: Tough call. He started out as a Creepy Child (2), but then he starts looking older, closer to teenage (5), hmm. Let's go 3.5
 * Role: Seemed to be the Big Bad for a while, but it's pretty clear he's always been The Dragon (4)
 * Aesthetics: The Glamour Failure with his body might cause him problems (2), but, depending on your mileage he either doesn't have any outstanding features, possesses unnatural looks (4) or is conventionally attractive (5). Eh, let's say 3.5 again.
 * Motivation: Well-Intentioned Extremist, probably (4)
 * Characterisation: Shows many cold-blooded signs early (3), but seems to be showing some traits leaning towards him having standards (4).
 * Contentness: His resolve does appear to have been shaken (4)
 * Morality: Grey and Gray Morality (3). Except it's also got The Good, the Bad, and The Evil (4). And there are almost no truly evil characters (barring Tsukiyomi and possibly some others), so Rousseau Was Right (5). Well, that averages to (4)
 * Sliding Scale: Idealistic in the end (5)
 * Total: 36/10 or 37/10 = 3.6 or 3.7. Quite likely, really.

Now, his minions:
 * Species: Pretty (4)
 * Gender: Female (4)
 * Age: Teenage (5)
 * Role: Quirky Miniboss Squad fits the most right now (3)
 * Aesthetics: Definately cute (5)
 * Motivation: They pretty clearly believe in whatever Fate is currently doing (5)
 * Characterisation: They haven't had much, but they're not evil or crazy. It's hard to say they're Rounded Characters but they are pretty lost and confused, even if they try to act like Noble Demons (4.5)
 * Contentness: Life is very hard. Maybe not angst-festival hard, but it's pretty bad for them even if they like their ideal (4)
 * Morality: (4)
 * Idealism: (5)
 * Total: 43.5/10 = 4.35. Practically certain.

Now, Dynamis:
 * Species: Human, probably (3)
 * Gender: Male (2)
 * Age: Middle-aged (3). Or Older (1). (2) is a nice round number.
 * Role: Another high-ranking supporter (4).
 * Aesthetics: The fact that we don't know what this guy looks like automatically invokes (2).
 * Motivation: Means well, but seems less likely to be nice. Still, (4)
 * Characterization: So far, hasn't shown much in the way of mercy, but is definitely not insane, so (3)
 * Contentness: No idea (3)
 * Morality: (4)
 * Idealism (5)
 * Total: 32/10 = 3.2. Not as low as one might have thought, but this could change as new information comes to light.

And finally, the only known evil person Tsukiyomi:
 * Species: Human (3)
 * Gender: Female (4)
 * Age: Teenage (5)
 * Role: At first she seems like a Rival Turned Evil, but recent developments put her quite firmly in the opportunist camp (2)
 * Aesthetics: Cute (5)
 * Motivation: Yeah, we know what she tried to do. (1)
 * Characterization: She's well crazy but this seems to have been something that developed over time... let's go with (1.5)
 * Contentess: She sure looks like she's having fun... (1)
 * Morality: (4)
 * Idealism (5)
 * Total: 31.5/10 = 3.15. The least likely in the group, but not impossible especially if she has a Freudian Excuse or Villainous Breakdown

Let's see if we can figure out whether Agent Washington of Red vs. Blue has gone bad: Total score: 3.6. ...That was absolutely no help at all.
 * Species: Human. 3
 * Gender: Male. 4
 * Age: ...Not entirely clear, but he registers as older than the rest of the cast, so call it Middle-Aged. 3
 * Role: Freelancer, obviously. 4
 * Appearance: Well, they're all wearing the same sort of Powered Armor, but Wash's does have that yellow stripe to indicate his Freelancer status, which could be a mark toward Predatory. ...Say 3.5.
 * Motivation: Seems to be motivated by justice for himself and all the others Project Freelancer hurt, goes under Worldview and Honor. 3
 * Characterization: Very bitter, but moves into Anti-Hero by the end of Reconstruction. 2.5
 * Contentness: Life is hard. 4
 * Morality: Very much Grey and Gray Morality. 4
 * Idealism: Cynical, despite being played for laughs. 5

OK... I've decided the thoroughly evil Morinth is optimal for breaking this thing. Let's see what the algorithm says of her odds of deciding to quit mind raping and murdering innocents are. Total score: 29/10 = 2.9 While not quite at 50/50, it's definately a high mark for a Complete Monster. Being an asari helps her there. But her motivation and characterization keep her from floating as high as I'd expected.
 * Species: asari, and ergo pretty: 4
 * Gender: Female: 4
 * Age: Measured according to asari standards, young adult: 4
 * Role: Opportunistic Serial Killer: 2
 * Aesthetics: definitely nice to look at: 4
 * Motivation: Sex, drugs, amusement: 1
 * Characterization: although not a flat character, she clearly enjoys her acts of wanton cruelty: 2
 * Contentedness: The woman clearly enjoys her depraved, hedonistic existence: 1
 * Morality of the story: Reapers and some criminals are evil, Shepard and a few others are good, plenty of gray room : 4
 * Idealism of the story: complicated, depends on Shepard' actions: 3

And now, from the same game, the odds of Legion going bad. Like Morinth, it was chosen for maximum scale-breaking, since its loyalty, assuming the appropriate mission is completed, is mostly not in doubt. Total score: 22/8 = 2.875. So evidently, it isn't likely to go Heretic on us any time soon. Though it's not impossible, if this algorithm is to be believed.
 * Species: AI Mind Hive: 5
 * Gender: It has none, despite often being called "he": N/A
 * Age: depends on what you're measuring. Individual programs? The greater mind to which it is connected? The physical form and specific combination of programs that led to the gestalt entity known as Legion?: N/A
 * Role: Nakama member: 3
 * Aesthetics: clearly inhuman, has a giant hole in its chest: 5
 * Motivation: loyalty to Shepard: 2
 * Characterization: rather alien, but mostly pleasant: 2
 * Contentedness: hard to tell, but seems pleased with its existence: 2
 * Morality of the story: Reapers and some criminals are evil, Shepard and a few others are good, plenty of gray room: 3
 * Idealism of the story: complicated, depends on Shepard' actions: 3

Let's take a look at Udina's turning Heel. The general reaction seemed to be "yeah, I knew he was an asshole, but I didn't expect him to do something like THAT!" Total score: 35/10 = 3.5. So we shouldn't have been too surprised, but it wasn't excruciatingly obvious...
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: I'll go with middle - 3
 * Role: He's a politician, so I'll say freelancer - 4
 * Aesthetics : Average - 3
 * Motivation: Somewhere between fighting for humanity and his own gain - 3
 * Characterization: Definitely arrogant - 4
 * Contentness: Seemed to be extremely frustrated - 4
 * Morality: The Mass Effect series, especially in the second and third games, seems to be Morality Kitchen Sink. Plenty of good, evil, and anywhere in between - 3
 * Cynicism: I guess it depends on Shepard, but Mass Effect 3 still gets pretty grim regardless - 4

OK, Doctor Who spoilers incoming. I can't help wondering whether the Doctor himself would have gone through with a Face Heel Turn if Adelaide Brooke hadn't disrupted his frankly terrifying flirtation with A God Am I. So here goes. Total score: 30/10 = 3. Could have gone either way. Oh dear. Adelaide, I once again salute you.
 * Species: Time Lord, definite Superior Species - 1
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Very, very old - 2
 * Role: The Hero, or near enough - 1
 * Aesthetics: YMMV on this one. I'd give him a 1, but there are others who would give him a 3. So, as a compromise, 2.
 * Motivation: Worldview - 3
 * Characterization: Normally 2, but at this point he's going nuts - 4
 * Contentness: Not happy, and the lack of a companion isn't helping - 4
 * Morality: Grey and Gray Morality, I'd say - 4
 * Idealism: A general feeling of hopelessness, for the most part - 5

And, since I'm having fun with this, let's see if the Master's final act in The End Of Time would have actually led to a Heel Face Turn, if y'know, there was any way in hell the writers would even vaguely consider that. Total score: 22/10 = 2.2. Still more likely than normal.
 * Species: Somewhere between Human Aliens and Eldritch Abomination, since he Came Back Wrong - 2
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: About the same age as the Doctor - 1
 * Role: The Dragon, albeit unwittingly - 4
 * Aesthetics: YMMV again, but I'd give him a 5.
 * Motivation: Somewhere between Complete Monster and completely out of his tree - 1
 * Characterization: An utter nutter (sorry) - 2
 * Contentness: He's fine with evil, but not a happy bunny - 3
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil - 4
 * Idealism: Rather cynical, with the exception of Wilfred - 2

One more: how close to turning Valeyard was the Sixth Doctor after The Reveal of the Valeyard's origins during his trial? Total score: 27/10 = 2.7. I think we're OK.
 * Species: Time Lord - 1
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Seen a few centuries - 2
 * Role: The Hero, or near enough - 1
 * Aesthetics: Would qualify as "dignified" if he didn't insist on wearing a coat that probably counts as visual torture in some countries - 3
 * Motivation: Worldview - 3
 * Characterization: Would get a 4 if he wasn't so determined to eradicate evil - 2
 * Contentness: Genuinely frightened by the Valeyard, and still recovering from the loss of Peri - 4
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, given the Master's presence - 3
 * Idealism: Corruption among the Time Lords, a Shadow Archetype and the Master? Baaaad times. The one shining beacon of idealism is the Doctor himself. - 4

Let's try River Song for Face Heel Turn (to see if she could really have been the one in the space suit in The Impossible Astronaut.):
 * Species: Half-Human, Half-Time Lord. Let's put her in the middle with 2.
 * Gender: Female. 2
 * Age: Unclear at the time of the Doctor's death. We'll put her between Children Are Innocent and Middle-Aged. 2
 * Role: True Companions. 3
 * Aesthetics: Dignified. 2
 * Characterisation: Somewhat arrogant. 4
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. 3
 * 18/7 = 2.57. The Doctor may want to watch out.

Just for the hell of it, let's do the Daleks for Heel Face Turn: So... 15/9 = 1.67. Not very likely.
 * Species: Fairly inhuman. 1
 * Gender: Don't have gender.
 * Age: Let's go with old. 1.
 * Role: Both Big Bad and Faceless Mooks, so 1.
 * Aesthetics: 1
 * Motivation: Complete Monster, 1
 * Characterisation: Just evil, really. 1
 * Contentness: Shit, contentness? Let's go with doing well. 2
 * Morality of the Story: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, 4
 * Idealism: Often depends. 3.

Likelihood of Turning Face for Light Yagami of Death Note
 * Species: Human -3
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: Teenager - 5
 * Role: The one Big Bad - 1
 * Aesthetics: Unnaturally Handsome - 4
 * Motivation: Between Nietzsche Wannabe and Well-Intentioned Extremist - 3.5
 * Characterization: Even Evil Has Standards - 4
 * Contentedness: Enjoying every minute - 1
 * Morality of the story: Black and Gray Morality - 1
 * Idealism of the story: Cynical - 1

Average: 25.5/10 = 2.55 Hmmmmm, this score is just slightly to the evil side of having an even chance of either staying the villain or attempting to redeem himself. In the end, Light's own conviction that he's already good diminishes his chances.

Now let's see if L would ever cross over to the dark side!
 * Species: Human -3
 * Gender: Male -4
 * Age: Young Adult -5
 * Role: Freelancer -4
 * Aesthetics: Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette -4
 * Motivation: Force of Habit -4
 * Characterization: Arrogant -4
 * Contentedness: Neutral -3
 * Morality of the story: Black and Gray Morality -5
 * Idealism of the story: Cynical -5

Average: 41/10 = 4.1 If L got into a position where he'd have to join the side of evil, you'd better believe he'd do it.

While on that note, let's see if Mello and Near would truly be L's prodigies. Would Mello totally lose it? Will Near be able to hold out after the end?

Mello: Total score: 37/10 = 3.7
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Teenager - 4
 * Role: I'll go with freelancer, especially as how he's a mob boss - 4
 * Aesthetics: Definitely attractive - 1
 * Motivation: It's very questionable, mostly just to compete with Near - 5
 * Characterization: He is very much a Bryonic Hero - 2
 * Contentness: Life is quite hard for him - 4
 * Morality: Black and Grey - 5
 * Idealism: Cynical - 5

Near: Total score: 41/10 = 4.1
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Teenager - 4
 * Role: He's a lot like L - 4
 * Aesthetics: White-haired pretty boy - 5
 * Motivation: Mostly out of habit, and he openly questions the concept of good and evil - 4
 * Characterization: Quite arrogant - 4
 * Contentness: I'll go with neutral - 3
 * Morality: Black and Grey - 5
 * Idealism: Cynical - 5

Woah, they're both just itching to go to the dark side! And Near scores exactly the same as L, with Mello a little below them both. No wonder Word of God states Near is the "more evil" between him and Mello. Now we can say for certain that Light's main opponents are really no better than him!

Due to the events of Blaz Blue Continuum Shift, let's see how is the chances of Litchi Faye-Ling once again turn good and call it quits being with NOL. If she is low, then even Tsubaki is doomed. Average: 36/9 (without contentness consensus), or 40/10 (with current contentness consensus): 4. Actually very high chance. But this is Blaz Blue we're talking about. With people like Hazama around, he can change the chance.
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Female - 4
 * Age: She doesn't seem to reach 30 years old, so Young Adult - 4
 * Role: She's the Sixth Ranger or Sixth Ranger Traitor of NOL who was not their starting members, so it's more like Freelancer - 5
 * Aesthetics: She's the Ms. Fanservice. - 5
 * Motivation: Love. Out there to save Arakune and self preservation. Therefore - 5.
 * Characterization: VERY LOST AND CONFUSED (as far as the consensus go) - 5
 * Contentness: Unknown thus far. She looks more like a Punch Clock Villain, but she doesn't have high opinions on NOL, especially after she refused Hazama on the first go, thus making it like she doesn't enjoy being with NOL. But she never shows it. Buuut, if we're to go with what's shown thus far, as in complaining towards Rachel on how this is the only chance she got, needing to be persuaded thoroughly by Hazama before agreeing, and her dislike to Relius' actions for Carl... let's just say she's not content. She just didn't show time to angst, so 4.
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. Unlike what most people say, Blaz Blue isn't very much Black and Gray Morality, even if the 'Good' is pretty gray. The Good: Anyone opposing NOL, The Bad: NOL, The Evil: Hazama and Relius. Therefore - 4 (if you feel insistent on it being Black And Gray... then it's 1)
 * Idealism: Hazama has seems to always outwit the good guys in the way. BB world is VERY cynical. - 1

For fun, let's see how was her chance of turning Heel, as proven in CS. Was it a low chance at first, but the impossible happened, or it was high all along?

Average: 33/10: 3.3. Never thought it was this high. No wonder Hazama succeeded, not by a lucky shot.
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Female - 2
 * Age: Young Adult - 5
 * Role: Freelancer - 4
 * Aesthetics: She's the Ms. Fanservice. - 1
 * Motivation: Love - 2.
 * Characterization: She played with the Boundary - 4
 * Contentness: Even if she could be happy with the people of Orient Town, she never seems to be content unless Arakune is cured. Therefore - 4
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 3
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 5

Now let us try doing Tsubaki Yayoi, whether she'll see the light or not.

Average: 36/10: 3.6. Slightly lower than Litchi (and still lower if Litchi's contentness can be rated), but she has the advantage of being linked with one of the core characters (Jin), thus it's looking good for Tsubaki.
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Female - 4
 * Age: Teenagers - 5
 * Role: The Dark Chick of the team. She's nowhere near The Dragon of Imperator in position compared to Hazama or Relius - 3
 * Aesthetics: She's human, she's attractive for a teenager, she's a redhead. Even if it's less fanservicey compared to Makoto, it's still pretty. - 5
 * Motivation: Thus far, she's of Knight Templar territory. - 4
 * Characterization: While she is lost and confused, her code as a Yayoi family, plus 'support' and sight from the Imperator makes her less confused and more focused compared to Litchi. - 4
 * Contentness: Neutral. It's an order, and she has no time to angst, as much as she want. - 3
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 4
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 1

On that note, how likely was it Tsubaki was going to find herself on the wrong side of the tracks? Let's find out. Average: 29/10 (2.9) vs 31/10 (3.1). That bad, huh? Hazama sure knows his stuff when corrupting the fairer sex.
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Female - 2
 * Age: Teenagers - 4
 * Role: Kinda as Jin's Lancer amongst the Academy groups before everyone went away... - 5
 * Aesthetics: As before, attractive redheaded human. - 1
 * Motivation: More than likely, it's for the love of Jin as well as familial duties. - 2
 * Characterization: She's slightly corruptible, but she certainly wouldn't want to be Anti-Hero-ic - 2
 * Contentness: Why else do you think she gets hammy when it comes to justice? - 2
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil or Black and Gray Morality. - 3 or 5
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 5

For fun, let us try calculating who's the bigger bad between Hazama or Relius. Whoever gets the higher score might get a Death Equals Redemption (A Heel Face Turn is already too late for these guys)

Hazama Average: 1.7/10: 1.7
 * Species: As Terumi he's actually a ghost, looking quite like Eldritch Abomination - 1
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: Existing since ages long. He's quite old - 1
 * Role: He's part of the Big Bad Diumvirate - 1
 * Aesthetics: Evil Is Sexy, fellas! Smooth Criminal, anyone? - 4
 * Motivation: He's a frigging Complete Monster who does evil things for lulz - 1
 * Characterization: Obviously Evil - 1
 * Contentness: He's enjoying every minute of it - 1
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 4
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 1

Relius Clover Average: 21/10: 2.1
 * Species: Look human enough, but rumors say that he existed long ago and became like Terumi - 1
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: He even looks old, fathering Carl and all. Look at those jaws. - 1
 * Role: He's part of the Big Bad Diumvirate - 1
 * Aesthetics: Evil Is Rugged. That mask ain't foolin' anyone, plus he got the voice of someone who makes his characters Memetic Sex God - 4
 * Motivation: While he looks like a Complete Monster, and he is one actually, he doesn't have For the Evulz for his principles and seems to be looking for some kind of goal in the shadows - 2
 * Characterization: Less characterized than Hazama, but he puts up a Lawful Evil facade in front of the Imperator and is pretty much all around cold blooded. - 3
 * Contentness: He's content, but doesn't make it a frigging enjoyment like Hazama - 2
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 4
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 1

End result, sorry Hazama, you're doomed even more than Relius. If Relius have some improvement, he might be graced with Death Equals Redemption

And now, last time in Calamity Trigger, Litchi appears in Tao's Gag Reel as a villain... then she pulls a Face Heel Turn in Continuum Shift. Who's the villain in Tao's Gag Reel in Continuum Shift? Rachel Alucard. Therefore, let us see if she would really turn against the heroes once NOL and Hazama is taken care of.

Average: 27/9 = 3. Surprisingly fifty-fifty, a bit closer to Litchi, but less so. But the chance is still there, you may as well try to keep your eye on her, Ragna and Hakumen.
 * Species: Snarky, but deep down a Friendly Neighbourhood Vampire - 2
 * Gender: Female - 2
 * Age: Looks young, but more Older and Wiser - 2
 * Aesthetics: One of the sources of Blaz Blue Loli of awesome. - 1
 * Motivation: Not known. She's not there for good sources, and she wonders why sometimes... - 5
 * Characterization: Very arrogant for a little girl - 4
 * Contentness: Pretty neutral in between doing good or evil - 3
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 3
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 5

Let's now try to calculate if Kokonoe would really go over the edge and possibly become a villain worse than Hazama, if those nukes are any indications...

Average: Worst case 31/9: 3.44, best case 30/9: 3.33. Above average and is dangerously skirting the line. Ragna better try to appease her or else she will turn the whole Sector Seven against him.
 * Species: Inbetween being born between the world's most powerful creature and greatest mage, I'd say that's... a Superior Species - 1.
 * Gender: Female - 2
 * Age: She probably has been alive for long since she's probably born after Nine died. However... she's probably younger than Rachel, but older than Litchi, therefore, probably Middle Aged - 3
 * Aesthetics: Not the type to look for tidiness, may look frumpy. Average - 3
 * Motivation: Actually, why? Kokonoe's sole interest is just for her own glory, or kill Terumi, she really gave no shit for 'good' so long as she's satisfied - 5
 * Characterization: She has zero social skills, orders people around like trash, holes herself up in her lab. Though she is pretty hotheaded and arrogant. Worst case 5, best case 4.
 * Contentness: Life does suck when your opposition is a Troll who reads your movement, taunts you like hell and back and you seem to want to claim his head but other people tried to do the same. 4
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 3
 * Idealism: CYNICAL - 5

Because Tsubaki has already performed a Face Heel Turn, what about the other two members of the Three NOL Stooges, Noel and Makoto? What about their chances? First, Noel.

Average: 26.5/10 = 2.65.... Come on, she's out of Mu-12 phase! Why is it slightly above average!? I guess everyone needs to be careful
 * Species: Humanoid. She's a Murakumo Unit after all. 3.
 * Gender: Female. 2
 * Age: Teenager. 4.
 * Role: She's more The Chick through and through for our hero Ragna... so probably 3.
 * Aesthetics: Moe. 1.
 * Motivation: She's trying to do good for her family and for the moment... friends, like the rest of the Stooges (except Tsubaki). 2
 * Characterization: While she is The Messiah, the fact that Hazama CAN turn her into Mu-12 hampers her 'incorruptibleness', even if the mode was shut down by Ragna, but she really won't even touch Anti-Hero-ism. 1.5.
 * Contentness: Seems to be OK. 2.
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. 3.
 * Idealism/Cynicism: CYNICAL. 5.

Next, Makoto.

Average: 24/10 = 2.4. Actually below average. But very little below average so perhaps Makoto can't just relax despite the score. There's always the chance of taking 'protecting friends' too far if her comment to Tager is any indication...
 * Species: A squirrel beastkin Cute Monster Girl. 2.
 * Gender: Female. 2
 * Age: Teenager. 4.
 * Role: Always the True Companion of Noel. 3
 * Aesthetics: Attractive, almost ridiculously so. 1.
 * Motivation: Spouts goodness and 'fighting for justice' or sorta like that, very much like a female Bang. Of course, mainly loyalty and friendship, but with those extra tidbits... 1.
 * Characterization: Always protecting friends is nice on paper, but when the practice is 'brutally kill anyone who ever tries to look at her friends (Noel and Tsubaki) funny'... that's Anti-Hero-ic. Still, she won't get lower than that. 2.
 * Contentness: Dude, did you see how she constantly spout about doing good? She must be having a hell of a time being Good. 1.
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. 3.
 * Idealism/Cynicism: CYNICAL. 5.

Because of his interest in Litchi, what about Bang? What are the odds of him performing a Face Heel Turn?

Average: 29/10 = 2.9. Wow! Even surprisingly above average. Bang has to be careful on being overly crushed with Litchi's current situation, and juggle with his Ikaruga patriotism and hope for the best. Yeah. Now let's hope Phoenix Rettenjou isn't draining your optimism and sense of justice.
 * Species: Human. 3
 * Gender: Male. 4.
 * Age: Middle-Aged. 3.
 * Role: As 'hero' as he is, he's a Vigilante, thus counts as some Freelancer. 4.
 * Aesthetics: Scruffy. Has a lot of scars, not exactly pretty boy material, but he's not that overly scary. 3.
 * Motivation: Definitely Good Feels Good. However, he's also weighed down with his honor and worldview as a pro Ikaruga guy. So taking an average... 2.
 * Characterization: With treatment as Butt Monkey, yeah, everyone thinks he's The Fool. 1.
 * Contentness: Oh come on... 1
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. 3.
 * Idealism/Cynicism: CYNICAL. 5.

Okay, so let's see if Arakune enjoys being a monster more than returning back into Lotte Carmine and make a good life as a normal man?


 * Species: That's a frickin' Eldritch Abomination. 1.
 * Gender: Male. 2.
 * Age: He can't be that much older than Litchi. Young adult. 4.
 * Role: A Freelancer (if you can call that anyway). Arrogant Science Guy. 5.
 * Aesthetics: Hello? Monstrous Eldritch Abomination here! 1.
 * Motivation: Just Think of the Potential! Is what he said to Kokonoe all the time and look at how he ended up. 2.
 * Characterization: Admittedly, combining his aspects as Arakune and Lotte, he's pretty rounded. 5.
 * Contentness: I don't think he likes being a monster that can make no advances on his ambition against Kokonoe. 5.
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. 4.
 * Idealism/Cynicism: CYNICAL. 1.

Result: 30/10. Very good, above average chance. But still, it all depended if Litchi succeeds or not... AND whether he can finally do something on that inferiority complex of his.

---

And just to be fair with the other Blaz Blue, let's try to see if somewhere along the line in Guilty Gear, Anji Mito could call it quits with working with That Man.

Average: 36/10 = 3.6. Pretty good. Even if That Man isn't as bad as NOL, Anji himself will more likely find something unsettling on him and cause him to call it quits.
 * Species: Human, Japanese in a setting where Japanese is considered a rare breed / Last of His Kind - 5
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: Young Adult - 4
 * Role: He's a freelancer, no business with PWAB or the Holy Order so far - 5
 * Aesthetics: A Walking Shirtless Scene, and pretty attractive to boot - 5
 * Motivation: Anji's motivation is unknown, he sought knowledge and knowledge alone and that alone seems to put him rather low - 2
 * Characterization: He's not very lost, he's focused on his thirst for knowledge and is a pretty honorable for a Japanese. More likely to become a Noble Demon - 4
 * Contentness: He seems pretty content and seems to think That Man isn't as bad as Baiken thinks, going so far as trying to recruit her - 2
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. Not as extreme as the Blaz Blue setting, but Guilty Gear sure doesn't quite know a purely white faction. The Good: Holy Knights, Jellyfish Pirates, Zepp, Sol. The Bad: Assassin's Guild, That Man's group (barring I-No), Gears. The Evil: I-No, PWAB. - 4
 * Idealism: Pretty Idealistic, but not very so. Anji being a Heel on basis of being with That Man himself is a proof that it's not overly idealistic - 4

For a new GG character to be rated, Testament has all been on the stuffs about Humans Are Bastards. As seen in one of his alternate endings in GGXX, he turns against humanity after Dizzy died. So what are the chances that in the future he gets riled up with humanity again and once again out to eradicate them?

Average: 35/10: 3.5. My God, no wonder most of Testament's alternate endings are about him renewing his war with humanity. His rate is just that kind of above average!
 * Species: Gear, seems like 'Superior Species' to me - 2
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Probably quite into adulthood when he turns Gear - 5
 * Role: Ever since he's out of Justice's services, he's more like a Freelancer who chose to protect Dizzy on his own will. - 4
 * Aesthetics: Gothic looking, red-eyed creepy Bishonen... - 5
 * Motivation: Love and Loyalty, probably he does 'good' just to protect Dizzy - 2
 * Characterization: VERY bitter and mistrusting for humanity, but lately he also becomes a bit of a loner due to Dizzy being with the Jellyfish - 5
 * Contentness: Doesn't comment much about it. - 3
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil. - 3
 * Idealism: Quite idealistic, but not so much - 2

The chance of Eli Wallace turning heel: Average: 4.1 - uh-oh. (Or: good times coming!)
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 4
 * Age: Young Adult - 5
 * Role: Smart guy, somewhere between Lancer and Freelancer - 4.5
 * Aesthetics: Average - 3
 * Motivation: Habit (he is pretty much a law abiding citizen who didn't know better) - 4
 * Characterization: As of 2x10 bitter, hotheaded with a touch of hubris - 3.5
 * Contentness: Life is hard - 4
 * Morality: SGU is a lot darker than its kin, pretty much B&G - 5
 * Cynicism of the story: They might as well go and hunt dogs - 5

Conversely, the chance of Rush turning completely face: Average: 3.05 - will we see a turn in the morality of the smart guys on the show (before its untimely end)?
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: Middle-aged - 3
 * Role: Arrogant kung-fu guy - 5
 * Aesthetics: rather good looking - 5
 * Motivation: For Science / The Unfettered - 2.5
 * Characterization: Rounded character - 5
 * Contentness: Neutral (he would do good if that served him better) - 3
 * Morality: B&G - 1
 * Idealism: Cynical - 1

Let's see how many chance that Reptile will had enough being screwed over and actually join the forces of Good.

Average: 2.67 - Slightly below average, but not very low for him, if Raiden actually tries and WANT to prevent Dragon King's return.
 * Species: Last of His Kind, in this case Saurian. There's also Khameleon, but it's still pretty few - 5
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Role: The middle ground. Servant of Shang Tsung or any of the Forces of Evil, but no one too high - 3
 * Aesthetics: If his name and form are any indications... - 1
 * Motivation: The Unfettered, all he cared about is the resurrection of the Saurian race, and boy does he look pitiful. - 3
 * Characterization: Cold blooded assassin who puts a Lawful Evil stance to his master, and gives no shit to honors. - 3
 * Contentness: Life is hard when nearly every of your masters screw you over. - 4
 * Morality: B & W. There's the Forces of Good, and there's the Forces of Evil... how clear is it? - 2
 * Idealism: As of the remake, the series is very cynical - 1.

---

Let's see if Emperor K'Yyrikakas from The Warrior's Chronicles would have a chance at all of becoming good. Average: 2.22 repeating. - That's below average, but far better than a large amount of big bads. All in all, he probably could have been converted if they'd figured out a way to form an alliance with him.
 * Species: Krisil aren't exactly close to humanoid... 1.
 * Gender: Krisil don't seem to really have them bar the Birthers. Leaving blank.
 * Age: He's not an OLD god-king, but he's certainly not a teenager. Let's say 4.
 * Role: He's the invader's overlord, pretty much guaranteed 1.
 * Aesthetics: Well, considering he's not humanoid in the slightest I'll have to say 1. And he is a little scaly looking...
 * Motivation: Well... He truly believes that conquest is good for his people... let's say 3.
 * Characterization: He's a king and he's not afraid to be dirty when he has to. Pretty much a 3.
 * Contentness: He's not exactly laughing with glee as they mow down the human infidels, but he likes it. 2.
 * Morality: There's the true white, the true black, and all the grays in between. 2.
 * Idealism: The stories a BIT cynical, but not enough to drag it all the way to a 2. 3.

How about Miles Edgeworth from Ace Attorney? How likely was his Heel Face Turn in the first place?
 * Species: Irrelevant in the Ace Attorney universe
 * Gender: Male, 2
 * Age: Young Adult, 4
 * Role: Could be considered Phoenix's "Rival Turned Evil" (though he is definitely an Anti-Villain at worst), 5
 * Aesthetics: Definitely attractive, 5
 * Motivation: Pratically screams "Well-Intentioned Extremist!", 4
 * Characterization: Very honorable and worthy opponent, 4
 * Contentness: Hard to say. Seems to be doing well, but deep down is haunted by his past and possibly his actions as a prosecutor. I'll go with 4.
 * Morality: This is a difficult one. I'll leave this out for now.
 * Idealism: Er... again, hard to say. Everything seems to pretty much work out in the end, though, so I will go with 4.
 * Average: 32/8 = 4.
 * So, Edgeworth was just itching for redemption all along...

G La DOS
 * Species: AI so that's a 1.
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Aesthetics: Nonhumanoid, though with some shades of Ugly Cute, so a 2
 * Age: Irrelevant
 * Role: Big Bad, 1
 * Motivation: For Science!, 2
 * Characterization: 2, strange and erratic plans indeed.
 * Contentness: Seems to enjoy her life, 2
 * Morality: Not applicable.
 * Idealism: Not applicable.

Average: 2.

This hasn't happened yet, but I suspect at some point Anissa in Invincible will have a Heel Face Turn. Let's see how probable it is for her:


 * Species: Human Aliens, 3.
 * Gender: Female, 4.
 * Age: Young adult, 4.
 * Role: Middle ground, 3.
 * Aesthetics: Cute, 5.
 * Motivation: Somewhere between 3 and 4. Her Empire in general is a bunch of social darwinists, but she genuinely seems to believe conquering Earth will make things better for both Humans and Viltrumites, hence making her a bit of a Well-Intentioned Extremist too.
 * Characterization: Again, between 3 and 4. She is Lawful Evil, but she also seems to be somewhat more honourable than other evil Viltrumites we meet.
 * Contentness: Hard to estimate based on what we've seen of her. Let's say 3.
 * Morality: The Good, the Bad, and The Evil, 4.
 * Idealism: More idealistic than cynical, 4.

So, her score is 34/9 = 3.78. Seems like the road to redemption is kinda likely for Anissa.

I can't believe no-one has checked out Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Was his Heel Face Turn predictable?:
 * Species: Vampire, 2
 * Gender: Male, 2
 * Age: Way older than any living human, so 1
 * Role: Leader, back when the atoning began. 1
 * Aesthetics: Well, Evil Is Sexy, after all. 4
 * Motivation: For doing evil: he is unscrupolous and has precise goals, so 2.
 * Characterization: As the story proceeds, Spike gets his own characterization in the round, so it's a 5.
 * Contentness: Being evil is wonderful and being badass is even better, especially with a fitting coat. Except that removed traumas and low social appreciation are heavy burdens to carry. Lots of denial about it do not help. Being unable to do what you exist for doing also doesn't help. Life sucks. Angst ensues. That's a straight 5.
 * Morality of the story: Gray and Gray, as summed up at the end of "Lie To Me". 3
 * Idealism: Oh, that warm energy pervading your heart! And the power of a nice take that to society, when in the end you prove to be better than all those nice people that spit on you! And the disarming force of heart-felt redemption! 5!

Result: 30/10 = 3. It was an exact 50/50 chance, and Spike's luck just happened to favor the side of good.

Breakdown from Transformers Prime has several Pet the Dog moments so odds are that he'll eventually become an Autobot:
 * Species: Cybertronian/Alien-robot, 2
 * Gender: Male, 2
 * Age: He acts like someone middle-aged, 3
 * Role: Serves as the Decepticons' Brute, 3
 * Aesthetics: Has an Eyepatch of Power after getting one of his optics ripped out, 2
 * Motivation: His motives aren't said out loud, but he seems to be loyal to Megatron, 5
 * Characterization: Noble Demon, 4
 * Contentness: Seems to be doing okay, but not great, 3
 * Morality: Black and White Morality, 2
 * Idealism: Middle of the road when it comes to idealism, 3

Result: 29/10 = 2.9 Breakdown almost reaches 50/50. Whether he'll go through a Heel Face Turn is in question; only time will tell.

Okay, the last episode of Brave 10 is nearly out and let's see if Anastasia will find her way to eventually become Face once more after whammy Heel turn in episode 9. Bring it on!

Result: 30.5/9: 3.38. Well I guess like it or not, she's going to have to turn Face again and help out fulfill Yukimura's prediction. End Result: Yes she did stop being a Heel, but she just doesn't feel like returning after betraying the team, but is definitely hanging around with another good free spirit Jinpachi. So... success?
 * Species: In a world where everyone is human... well this doesn't count.
 * Gender: Female, 4
 * Age: Young Adult. Definitely younger than Yukimura who's more Middle-Aged. 4.
 * Role: The Dark Chick of Hanzo's Five-Bad Band. 4.
 * Aesthetics: Uh, she's the Ms. Fanservice and has the sexy voice of Yuu Asakawa. 5.
 * Motivation: At this point, she claims to be a Social Darwinist in believing only the strong survives. 3.
 * Characterization: For the moment, she seems to take the mantle of Lawful Evil very much. 3.
 * Contentness: Life's hard, yeah, but she certainly doesn't come as the angsty type, but if the Jinpachi encounter is to be taken note, she could be secretly angsting. Fine, 4.5.
 * Morality: Hmm... hard to peg. Black And Gray morality seems to be in her mindset and seems to hold true (Black = Hanzo's group, Grey = Everyone else). 1.
 * Idealism: 3. It's pretty balanced though.

Let's see how Dr. Drakken and Shego will hold up. They've teamed up with Kim and Ron multiple times, and in the end they all saved the world together. And during the times they turned good (brainwashed or otherwise, like during Christmas), they were clearly having a blast! Could they hold up after the end?

Dr. Drakken/Drew Linsky: Total score: 27/10 = 2.7
 * Species: Human - 3
 * Gender: Male - 2
 * Age: I'll say middle-aged (he was in college with Kim's dad) - 3
 * Role: He is Kim's main and most recurring foe, but seeing as how he teams up with her quite a bit, especially during the Grand Finale, I'll be generous and call him an opportunist - 2
 * Aesthetics: I'd say he's average - 3
 * Motivation: Wants to be a successful villain, but also wants to prove he is a genius, as well as pursue money, power, and science - 2
 * Characterization: Card-carrying villain, but definitely possesses some decent qualities. Also, he and Kim (and Ron) definitely see each other as worthy opponents. I'll compromise - 2
 * Contentness: He enjoys making evil plans, but he clearly experiences a lot of frustrations and setbacks. I'll go with neutral - 3
 * Morality: Initially, the series is Black and White, but it resembles a lot more of The Good, The Bad, and The Evil from the start of Season 4 onwards. Compromise - 3
 * Idealism: Definitely more idealistic than cynical - 4

Shego: Total score: 33/10 = 3.3
 * Species: Despite the green skin, she is human - 3
 * Gender: Female - 4
 * Age: Young Adult - 4
 * Role: Kind of a freelancer, but she's mostly Drakken's right-hand man - 4
 * Aesthetics: She is a very sexy villain - 4
 * Motivation: It's a whole bunch of things, but I'd say she's mostly in it to enjoy herself - 1
 * Characterization: Also a card-carrying villain, but she and Kim so obviously consider themselves worthy opponents to the point that they are oozing with Foe Yay. Plus, as Kim states, she's softer than she lets on - 3
 * Contentness: Usually she's about neutral - 3
 * Morality: 3
 * Idealism: 4

So while neither of them is jumping up and down at the chance to turn (completely) good, it's not impossible. Surprisingly (or not), Shego is more likely to fully turn than Dr. D. But then again, that might just be a way to make him turn Face even more easily...
