BChat/Characters

With many regulars in the chat, it's a sure bet that B Chat has a metric ton of characters.

 * Super Strength

Arin -- A young and cheerful, foot high dragon child that can bring out the soft hearts in some, and the groans in others.
 * Cuddle Bug

 * Improbable Weapon User: Anything! Sticks, stones, as long as he can lift them.
 * Obfuscating Stupidity

 * Informed Ability: Felrok knows how to fence, but has never demonstrated the skill.
 * Knife Nut: More of a Dagger Nut, really.
 * Loveable Rogue
 * Nice Hat: It's actually a Nice Bandana, but still counts.

Flora -- Flora exists so that the other residents have someone to hate.
 * Karma Houdini: The things she gets away with sometimes...
 * The Trickster: Closest to a Screwy Squirrel, since she just torments people for her own amusement.

Hypotenuse Man -- An enigmatic robot with grand aspirations and his creator breathing down his neck.
 * Asskicking Pose, Atlas Pose, Pose of Supplication, Pstandard Psychic Pstance, Thinker Pose, Victory Pose: His main offensive abilities are poses that affect the viewer in strange ways... That Came Out Wrong.

 * Anti-Hero

 * Not So Stoic

Kayla Renee/Blackthorne -- A dragon who doesn't take anything from anybody. She's also fond of making things explode.

 * Healing Factor: One of the things she uses her immense amount of energy for.

 * Our Dragons Are Different: Blackthorne is a dragon crossbreed, which resulted in a mixed physical appearance, but an unequal mix of powers, due to an unplanned lack of training.
 * Parental Abandonment: The fact that her parents were more like DNA donors didn't help.

Kuno -- A construct formed from several different birds (and some others thrown in there for good measure), he's always ready to help out, even if he's not the most effectual.
 * Biological Mashup / Mix and Match Critter: Which one he qualifies as probably depends on how you look at his origins.
 * Break the Cutie: Let's see... Very little memory of his prior life/lives aside from how they ended (horribly)? Check. Fed to the wolves (almost literally)? Check. Separated from the few friends he'd made and the only home he's known? Check. And let's add a smashed-up wing to that, too!
 * Iron Woobie: He's like the freaking Energizer Bunny, if the Energizer Bunny attracted bad luck like moths to a flame.
 * Least Is First: Both the Corporate Takeover event and the setup RP the day before it; Kuno was the first to offer to help Hypotenuse Man, no questions asked and despite being fully aware that he's useless.
 * Soul Jar: Sort of; his body is the jar, and the person whom the soul belonged to was already dead at the time. Breaking the bond holding his soul to his body might kill him instantly (he's not particularly interested in testing this, for obvious reasons).
 * The Woobie: Almost, anyway. Sort of.

Lyrra -- A sentient shadow who is mostly content to be extremely snarky.
 * Break the Haughty - He's been unable to manipulate shadows very well since being shot with a laser by Mr. Stone. Ironically, it was while he was trying to help the others.
 * Dark Is Not Evil
 * Deadpan Snarker - All. The. Time.
 * Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors - Being a shadow, light hurts him.
 * Eyes of Gold - While technically, he doesn't have eyes, and the color is by choice, it still counts.
 * Good Is Not Nice - Lyrra is perfectly capable of being polite and considerate, even gentle when he wants to be, as shown by his conversations with Alistair. He just normally doesn't want to be.
 * Hidden Depths - Both in the metaphorical and literal senses. Did you know that your shadow is a gateway to another level of existence, by the way?
 * Jerk With a Heart of Gold
 * Living Shadow
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting - Lyrra and his relatives can all do this to some extent.

Mea -- A mysterious white haired "demon" hunter that appears every so often.

 * Put On a Bus: Twice now!
 * The Atoner
 * Tragic Hero

'Nigma -- A shapeshifting embodiment of the unknown.
 * Body Horror: 'Nigma once turned into a duplicate of Snowblarg right in front of him...and then melted. (Try not to think about the implications of that too hard.) It can also have some very...interesting mood swings.
 * Involuntary Shapeshifting: 'Nigma has interesting mood swings.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: Into just about anything, in fact.

P - Z

Revor Alfrey -- A mage who, after an unfortunate encounter with a werewolf, contracted lycanthropy himself.
 * Character Development: Comparing how he acted in his first RP to the most recent one.. yeah.
 * Dark Is Not Evil: He studies dark magic.
 * Instant Runes: Some of his spells.
 * Involuntary Shapeshifting: Without his amulet, this happens on full moons.
 * Magic Pants
 * Mode Lock: For a short time Revor was stuck in his wolf form. This can happen if his amulet is removed while he is in wolf form.

 * Red Eyes, Take Warning: Averted; Revor has glowing red eyes but is, by all accounts, sociable and mild-mannered.
 * Robe and Wizard Hat: More like a Robe and Wizard Hood.
 * Squishy Wizard: Mage archetype. Though he can also double as a Fragile Speedster when in wolf form.

Ryker Solsby -- A ghost who, after meeting his end by execution, took up residence at the Mansion.
 * Beware of Hitch-Hiking Ghosts: This is pretty much what he did in the Pirates RP.
 * Dead Person Conversation: Every conversation with Ryker.
 * Ghostly Goals: Ryker had them, then he mellowed out.
 * I Won't Say I'm Guilty: Ryker died due to being found guilty for a crime he wouldn't plead guilty to.

 * The Trickster

Shara -- A meek, unassuming magic-user who draws power from Lyrra.
 * BFS: Or Scythe, or Mallet, or Club, or Spear, or...
 * Dark Is Not Evil: Lyrra fits this trope. Shara pretty much epitomizes it.
 * Friend to All Living Things: Well, she doesn't get swarmed by animals wherever she goes, but she has got the personality down.

Snowblarg -- A rare type of Blargg who is loud-mouthed, opinionated, and generally a nuisance.
 * An Ice Person
 * Arbitrary Skepticism: Snowblarg is a self-described "atheist and skeptic" in a world where angels, demons, ghosts, and all other sorts of supernatural creatures show up on a day-to-day basis.
 * Big Ol' Eyebrows
 * Drop in Character
 * No Indoor Voice
 * Third Person Person: Regularly switches in and out of the third person, to the point where he could refer to himself as "I" and "Snowblarg" in the same sentence.

Tanner -- Best described as "life's punching bag," Tanner seems to have at least found a niche at the Mansion.
 * Belated Backstory: When he first showed up in the Pirate RP, he was a lot more talkative and cheery. Now, not so much. Could also be Character Development.

 * Ace Pilot: Apparently, Weilic's awesome in a frigate or fighter.
 * Belated Backstory
 * Cool Ship: The Savyor.
 * Heal Thyself: Stimpacks seem to be his quick answer for any damage.
 * Red Eyes, Take Warning: Weilic's white eyes mean he's gone berserk, not exactly physically, but mentally.
 * Walk It Off: Let's see, a fireball to the back, a cannonball to his front, getting kicked in the stomach, a too-close-for-comfort explosion, and taking a serious burn to the face, yet Weilic somehow continued on in the Heartless Invasion. (This may be excused by high pain tolerance, but not to that point.)

Windy Rat -- A shapeshifter who happens to be BabyCharmander's best friend.
 * Action Girl
 * Badass Normal: In the original storyverse, particularly the second book, she doesn't have the array of useful abilities her other companions have.
 * Chaotic Good: Personality aside, she planet-hops, so ignorance of countless law structures is more of a side effect than anything.
 * Parental Abandonment: Subverted; she was raised by a single father, but her mother was gone before Rat could remember. Also possibly subverted somewhat for the entire Nearian species, because of their overall short life span.
 * Razor Wind: Her Wind Rend attack.
 * The Chosen One: Of her home planet, at least.

 * Badass Normal

 * He Is Not My Husband: Zene and Blue are...interesting.
 * The Speechless: Zene was originally mute; she usually made herself understood via gestures and sign language
 * Stationary Wings: averted; she can soar if she has the height and space, but aside from that she generally needs to flap her wings at least a little.

 * Beware the Nice Ones
 * Really 700 Years Old
 * Shorter Means Smarter

A - Z
Dark Jirbyth -- The result of mind control, time-travel, and time-loops resulted in a form of Jirbyth fixated on gaining power and eradicating worlds that are centred around "ignoring reality".
 * Bring My Red Jacket
 * Chewbacca Defense: She manifested from a villain brainwashing her into thinking that Dreamland was All Just a Dream and she's free to destroy it. She still maintains this argument despite not being in Dreamland or her brainwasher being alive.

 * The Heartless: Well, the Nobody, but still.

Mr. Thratch and Mr. Stone -- Workers at CombinaCo. They're always seen together, and Lash tends to use them as gophers. They're both very intelligent, though Thratch may be a bit more so, being the man behind Hypotenuse Man.
 * Artificial Limbs: Mr. Thratch, after experimentation, now has these.
 * BFG: Mr. Stone's weapon of choice.
 * Boisterous Bruiser: Mr. Stone.
 * Genius Bruiser: Also Mr. Stone. He's very smart, even if he doesn't seem like it.

 * Punch Clock Villain: Both Mr. Thratch and Mr. Stone are just doing what Lash tells them to do.
 * Those Two Bad Guys: The reason why their lists of tropes aren't separated.

Vahrokh -- Asotoku's archnemesis and a Marine Captain, Vahrokh has a rather skewed view of justice. He's capable of transforming into a shark or a shark-human hybrid thanks to a Devil Fruit he ate. Hasn't appeared since the Pirate RP, for various reasons.
