I feel like hard Pluto aspects indicate a feeling of powerlessness as a child in some capacity, and this usually manifests itself in one of two ways, since Pluto is an extreme, black/white, all-or-nothing type of energy.
1) The person never wants to feel powerless again, and chooses to project this onto the world, with how they do it is determined by which planet(s) are aspected by Pluto, along with which aspect/house/sign. This is where the potential for Narcissism could come in.
- Sun/Pluto: The ego, in some capacity, was broken at an early age (sometimes could also = loss of father, literally or figuratively); person vows to not let others break their sense of self ever again (via hiding their true self, or over-compensating, in its negative manifestations)
- Moon/Pluto: Emotional safety was not present or taken away at an early age; person vows to shield or protect their deep emotions from others (becomes psychologically manipulative if immature).
- Mercury, Venus and Mars all have their own negative manifestations as well. Mercury using speech and logic to maintain control, Venus using attraction and love to do so, and Mars using will/force to do so.
2) The powerlessness felt by the person as a child causes them to explore this issue, and get to the true core of it, which is something mature Plutonians are able to do better than others. This can result in leaders, revolutionaries and people who are strong enough in their views to combat the more negative aspects/institutions of society.

I think that Pluto often represents our concept and perception of Free Will. Those who feel like they didn't have any free will early on can either use this inner pain to manipulate others to make themselves feel "in control" later on, or they can recognize the unfairness/imbalance from that situation, and use it to make a change in their behavior in the opposite direction (i.e. selflessness).
Whether you believe Free Will is real or not, human beings need it as a concept -- otherwise you could say Fatalism would win out. Plutonic people often come from an environment of power-imbalance, which can be from archaic societal structures (i.e. unhealthy familial patterns, immigrants dealing with a new country which doesn't accept them, or whatever else). Either way, Pluto gives them the power to "go deep" and use this energy to combat the imbalances that humanity has accrued over the years, taking them further away from our original essence.
Neptune on the other hand represents surrender and connectivity, which shows the interconnectedness of all things, beings, and actions/reactions. I could probably go on for a while but it's certainly an interesting topic. The outer planets are all quite fascinating to me (hence the username).
