Compare and contrast DragonTheirFeet, DragonWithAnAgenda, TheStarscream, and BastardUnderstudy. TakeUpMySword is the heroic equivalent. Sometimes overlaps with AsLongAsThereIsEvil. While they are very similar, there's a crucial difference between this trope and being The Starscream: the Dragon was not directly involved with the Big Bad's downfall. There are many a Starscream who will become this if they outlive the BigBad, but most examples of this trope were not obsessed with becoming the BigBad in the first place, they merely [[OpportunisticBastard are opportunistically]] took the role because it was offered to them by fortune on a silver platter. They just get as much as they can so to say. There is a grey area with this, as sometimes the Dragon "drags his feet" or has his own agenda, but so long as he displays at least nominal allegiance to the core leadership, he's not the Starscream. The opposite of this trope is DemotedToDragon, where characters who were previously {{Big Bad}}s in their own right become [[TheDragon The Dragons]] to a new BigBad.
