Psychopath
From Activating Evolution
A psychopath, also known as a sociopath, is defined as a person having no concerns for the feelings of others and a complete disregard for any sense of social obligation. They seem egocentric and lack insight of any sense of responsibility or consequence. Their emotions are thought to be superficial and shallow, if they exist at all. They are considered callous, manipulative, and incapable of forming lasting relationships, let alone show any kind of meaningful love. They typically never perform any action unless they determine it can be beneficial for themselves.
Psychopaths tend to blend into society well, usually being excellent liars and quite charming. The term "psychopathic" should never be confused with "psychotic" which implies that the subject is delusional and does not necessary know that what they are doing is wrong. A psychopath, on the other hand, is perfectly aware of what they are doing, but chooses consciously not to follow societal norms.
