== Narcissism == {{Main|Narcissism}} According to Thomas, character assassination is an intentional attempt, usually by a narcissist or their [[codependents]], to [[Social influence|influence]] the portrayal or reputation of someone in such a way as to cause others to develop an extremely negative or unappealing perception of them. It typically involves deliberate exaggeration or [[Manipulation (psychology)|manipulation]] of facts, the spreading of rumours and deliberate misinformation to present an untrue picture of the targeted person, and unwarranted and excessive criticism.<ref>{{Citation | last1 = Thomas | first1 = D | title = Narcissism: Behind the Mask | year = 2010}}</ref>
