Northernlion

Northernlion is a Let's Player, hailing from Canada. Aside from Let's Plays, he also does other shows such as Let's Look At and Only in Korea (started because he moved to Korea to teach English). He has become fairly popular, gaining over 20,000 subscribers. He is also a Machinima director, and runs a show called Poison Mushroom, where he takes a look at terrible games and makes fun of them.

Relevant tropes: "You've heard of an arrow to the knee, well, how about an arrow to the dick?"
 * Bald of Awesome: A prime example
 * Catch Phrase: In The Binding Of Isaac let's play: "Stupid damage!"
 * Other catchphrases include "Oh no, the pills made me retarded!" and "That's another thing I thought I would never say in my life." He even mentions possibly opening up an online store selling shirts with the phrases on them.
 * "That's bad for business!
 * "Let's put it that way."
 * Executive Meddling: His let's play of Assassins Creed: Brotherhood had to be removed from youtube due to copyright claims from Ubisoft. It was moved to blip.tv, but appears to be cancelled as he hasn't updated in a long time
 * Fan Disservice: His let's look at of 'sexy' Xbox Live Indie games. "Dominique is a man, baby, look at that jaw!"
 * Groin Attack: He is particularly amused when, in a Dark Souls video, he ends up shooting an arrow into an enemy's crotch.

""J.J. what am I doing here?""
 * Long Runner: His let's play of The Binding of Isaac has been going on for over 120 videos, and he doesn't show any signs of stopping.
 * Intoxication Ensues: For three videos of The Binding of Isaac let's play, he was slightly inebriated. Needless to say, this led to some hilarious shenanigans.
 * MST: Invoked during the Grey's Anatomy let's play. Also his Machinima series Poison Mushroom.
 * Nintendo Hard: He's a big fan of these kind of games, and he's actually quite competent at them. (despite what some of the commenters might say) He's hardcore enough to unlock The Kid in Super Meat Boy and all the No Damage Runs achievements in The Binding of Isaac.
 * Noodle Incident: A running part of his humor
 * One of Us: He has referenced TV Tropes numerous times.
 * Reference Overdosed: To other games, movies, eries, cartoons and miscellaneus pop-culture subjects. It's almost imposible for a single person to get them all, because some make allusion to kinda obscure stuff. Case in point:

"I was thinking during the entire video: "How is he going to kill everyone in this game when he gets bored?""
 * Running Gag: Whenever he does a Let's Look At-video of a Simulation Game, like Street Cleaning Simulator or Railworks: Train Simulator, he will conclude the session with an extravagant accident that would have surely reduced his vehicle to a smoking piece of rubble in real life.


 * Self Imposed Challenge: He did numerous challenge runs of The Binding of Isaac.
 * Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness: Compared to other Let's Players, Northernlion's vocabulary is much larger. Always Lampshaded.
 * Too Awesome to Use: Has mentioned the trope by name and also thinks the D6 in The Binding of Issac to be this.
 * Why Did It Have to Be Snakes: He adressed on his Let's Look At Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet video that deep sea and its creatures, particularly jellyfishes, seriously creep him out.
