Disorder: Sociopathy The majority of Disney villains are sociopaths. Antisocial, lacking any sense of moral responsibility or social conscience and whose behaviour often dovetails into criminal activities, they will none the less be charming and manipulative in order to achieve their goals. Of all the villains, Jafar is absolutely the top of the food chain when it comes to all these traits. In his guise as the Royal Vizier of Agrabah, Jafar is perfectly suited to carry out his amoral schemes. He pretends to bow and whimper to the sultan and he has no qualms about sending innocents to their death in pursuit of the lamp within the Cave of Wonders. Jafar manipulates Aladdin in the guise of the old man, once he learns that the titular hero is the one who can retrieve the lamp, all the while lying to Jasmine but telling her he had already executed him. When his true colours are revealed, Jafar becomes the monster we all suspected, imprisoning the Sultan and his daughter, taking the lamp and making each wish more greater than the last in pursuit of power. He views himself superior the genie, a gloated assumption that becomes his downfall when he becomes trapped within the lamp. This sociopath will stop at nothing to get what he wants; his plotting and scheming are more dangerous than an openly aggressive villain.
