The Puppetmaster
"The Puppetmaster" is a term often used to describe a person who manipulates others behind the scenes, much like a puppeteer controls puppets. This concept can be found in various forms of media, including films, literature, and theater, where a character orchestrates events or influences others without revealing their true intentions.
In psychology, the term can relate to individuals who exhibit controlling behaviors in relationships, using tactics such as emotional manipulation or deceit. This dynamic can lead to unhealthy interactions, where one person exerts power over another, similar to how a puppet is directed by its puppeteer.
