Butt-Monkey

Sometimes, a character has the only purpose to be abused by the rest of the cast of the media they come from, no matter how contrived the setup is. A character like this is known as a "Megward the Wizard".

The trope's name itself is a pun of the names of three characters that started the trope. These characters are Squidward Tentacles, Meg Griffin and Kyle the Wizard.
