The maverick brand archetype
Speak boldly and with intellect. Never hush your voice for someones comfort. Speak your mind.

Mavericks don’t just break rules for the hell of it. They’re agents of change. And Mulan is no exception. She isn’t afraid to do whatever it takes to protect her family. Even pretending she’s a dude.

I’m all for kids being a little rebellious and pushing boundaries. But Sid catapulted over “the line” into out-of-freaking-control territory. He’s sadistic, destructive, and generally just a dick.

I’m totally in love with Jessica and her shitty attitude. She does whatever she wants. She never does anything she doesn’t wanna’ do. But she still cares deeply about her friends. Plus she wears a bitchin’ leather jacket.

Sirius ain’t afraid to break aaallll the rules. He’s was a rebel from the beginning when he was sorted into Gryffindor instead of Slytherin. Then, he busted outta’ Azkaban to expose Ron’s rat for the murderous traitor he was. RIP, bro.

The “shadow side” of the Maverick would includes descriptors like destructive, dark or bad, out of control, and illegal. I don’t think anyone would argue that Lucius fits the bill.

Sure, he’s got his flaws (like bangin’ his sister, among other things). And killing his boss didn’t do much for his popularity – even though he was crazy and probably deserved it – it sure as heck started a revolution.
