Example FREUD:

Sigmund Freud as an archetype might represent a Wise Old Man, or Wise Fool

He links into stereotypes we may hold about Psychoanalysis, Medical Quackery, or Dream Interpretation

We can apply arbitrary other Tropes to him, such as: Imaginary Friend

We can break out elements of our stereotypes, such as Couches (with psychoanalysis) and our popular conceptions (everything is sex, “Freudian Slip”)

We can mess with those popular conceptions (Fauxdian Slip)

Finally we can take our constructed entity and disguise it, swapping elements out for their equivalents, turn him into a kind of Wizard, Priest, or Know-it-all Detective

I leave this final operation for the interested student
