“Pepper from American Horror Story. Being born with a serious disability is already hard, but her family sent her to an orphanage. Years later she was “adopted” by a narcissist. Yes Elsa took care of her, but being in a freakshow isn’t much better than being institutionalised. Then she met a man she loved only for him to die at a young age due to his disability. Elsa then decided Pepper was too much to deal with and sent her to live with her sister. A few years later she became an aunt and was very invested in the baby’s care, this ended when the baby was killed by his own father who proceeded to blame the murder on her. She died in an asylum.

She is one of the few characters in the franchise who never hurt anyone, and she had a fate even the worst characters wouldn’t have deserved.”
