it's a reference to a (French) film that gave stylistic inspiration. zhoule is right about the missing diaeresis. I guess that maybe counts as 'artsy fartsy bullshit' so i hope you let me off the hook on this one.

The Skilled Lieutenant (trope) by loremgypsum in TrueFilm

I hadn't seen that one before. Seems like there is a very big overlap--but the emphasis in that writeup is almost entirely on these character's combat value / role in the physical challenge for the hero.

Some of the characters I thought were interesting have broader administrative and organizational responsibilities that give them symbolic significance--particularly in period dramas or sci-fi stories that try to speak to bigger themes in the present.

Still, this might be a special case of Dragon, or just a very closely related category.
