Berserk Button - Have i mentioned that i HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HATE HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE. Being Called DYK? cause i do. Alot.
Well you sure don't show it.

Red Oni, Blue Oni - Grekiro and Shin have been relatively good friends for at least 3 years. However, they act very wildly different from each other, and they can clash with each other on occasion.

Aerith and Bob - In the Pandorical Stone, there are characters named Asuka, Morphula, Hawkye, Plate, Valenci...and Michael and Giles.

I could not resist. I am so sorry.
If you don't like that song, consider me doubly sorry. orz

Anyway, as for my addition.




Rule of Cute - Jau and Min fall under this trope. Most people are prone to hugging them (in Min's case) or carrying them around (Jau). When together, Jau is usually on Min's head, though this is usually overlooked in the chat.

Sugar Bowl - The Skype chats, and then only for the friendly people. It's not often a fight starts, and when one does, it's usually someone people generally ignore.

Group Hug - Ties in with the aversion to Air Hugging. With all these huggy people around, you usually won't avoid one of these.

Take My Word For It - This post. Not to say we're immature. Often. Because we're immature all the dang time.

Well I finally did the tropes I can get off the top of my head for Jau (and a few for Plate and DDR). Hope it isn't too much of a hassle! :sorry:

New:


  • Astral Projection: Jau is capable of projecting his mind out of his body, his projection appearing like a ghost version of himself. He can do this when he’s asleep and innately does so when unconscious.

  • Butt Monkey: Jau tends to be the target of quite a bit of physical abuse.

  • Combat Medic: While Jau is capable of dishing out a lot of damage, he can also use his psionics for healing wounds. Which is good as Jau tends to get hurt a lot!

  • Cowardly Lion: Jau is easily scared and has the tendency to rely on others for protection. However, when he is willing to fight…

  • Demoted to Extra: When Jau became Just a Username’s main persona, DDR appeared much, much less.

  • Expy: Jau has inherited a few traits (Mental World access, being skilled with several weapons) from DDR.

  • Half Dressed Cartoon Animal: Milk usually wears just a sweater while Jau sometimes wears a top (usually a buttoned up vest). Justified in Jau’s case as his clothes adjust his spine and allow him to stand upright.

  • Head Pet: Jau likes to sit on people's heads.

  • Jerkass: Plate is a true Jerkass or at least that’s what he wants Jau to think. In reality, he’s putting on a Jerkass Façade and waiting for the day Jau stopped depending on someone acting like an obnoxious asshole and solve all of his own problems.

  • Lightning Bruiser: Jau has immense physical ability when human, although weaker psionics compared to his true form.

  • Mental World: Jau and DDR can access them at will, using them as homes and storing several weapons and other equipment they can draw at will.

  • Multi Melee Master /Multi Ranged Master: Jau has immense skill with several weapons. In fact, he was given the title “Weapon Master” by a society of Psionic Little Dragons when he was in their service.

    • DDR, who Jau is an expy of ability wise, also are these tropes.


  • Psychic Powers: Jau’s species name is called Psionic Little Dragon for a reason.

  • Reality Warper: DDR is capable of this, though it is limited mainly by the fact that it uses his own life force.

  • Sarcastic Devotee: Plate is loyal to Jau, focusing on protecting Jau and trying to help him get stronger but this does not stop him from mocking him very bluntly. As much as Plate dislikes doing so.

  • Shoulder Pet Position: Being a Shoulder-Sized Dragon, Jau ends up in this position a lot.

  • Squishy Psychic: While Jau possesses psychic abilities of great power and variety, his true form is a little dragon with not so tough scales and weak natural weapons. This issue can be fixed with shapeshifting though…


Additions:


  • Breath Weapon: Jau can breathe out what is basically Wave Motion Gun. He can also breathe Fire, Ice and Lightning. This ability stems from Jau’s psionics and can only be done in his true, little dragon form.

  • Our Dragons Are Different: Jau’s a Psionic Little Dragon, a psychic species the size of a cat. They also happen to be incredibly advanced race that is capable of omniversal travel.

  • Scaled Up: Inverted with Jau. Due to his immense skill with weaponry, Jau is most dangerous in his human form. The fact that he has superhuman strength, toughness and agility as a human helps too.

  • The Glomp: Jau tends to both dish out (especially to Cedi, Hawkye and Dodgy) and receive a lot of these.

  • Took a Level in Badass: Jau used to be just a normal human from a mundane universe with no combat ability whatsoever. A kidnapping, transformation and events Jau had forgotten due to amnesia had lead him to becoming a powerful psychic with skill in several weapons he can draw at will, although he’s still a bit of a coward. He seemed to have lost half that level as he was braver and more capable before receiving amnesia.

  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: Jau can perform this with his bracelet. Although it allows him to turn into any form he can think of in his head, he can only stay outside his true form for a limited time, with larger forms having a shorter possible duration and the bracelet takes 16 hours to charge itself fully if empty.

Added Jau's list of horrors, as well as Grash and JB's submission.

Dodgy, if you read this.. ever going to change that list so I can add it properly? :P

And I think you mentioned having a couple of personal tropes too, why not finalize those so I can add 'em? ;D


And also, newbie members- DONT HOLD BACK. If you think a trope applies to you, POST! :D
