Suppression

Suppression is a 3d webcomic.

The town of Ebon Creek has been struck by a horrible plague. The ground's turned to mud and the whole town is sinking. There are demonic monsters roaming the streets that may or may not have once been human. But a lucky few have come out of it all with a wide variety of powers. Not that they can really enjoy it with an army of mooks hunting them down to be quarantined in the repurposed asylum on the edge of town.

Desperately Needs More Love. And Wiki Magic.

"Trevor: Right through to the chainmail... dammit, I liked this shirt."
 * Animal Motif: Azgrut and scorpions. His prosthetic eye has seven optics (making for a total of eight) and when he gets serious in a fight, he summons scorpion legs (complete with tail). Also, presuming he was responsible for the Demonslayer mechs, they also have a rather distinctive shape.
 * Anti-Magic: Ley Stone explicitly does this.
 * Anti-Villain: Grenner is this half of the time. The other half is walking nightmare fuel.
 * Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance: Nick has red hair, Charlie's looks like he stuck his finger in a light socket and Victus has a very blue-themed outfit. Semi-justified with the ones from Ebon Creek in that the Plague changes their appearance; the flashback arc shows them before they got the plague.
 * Badass Normal: Pre-plague Bael takes on a huge swarm of demons with little more than a lead pipe. He doesn't win, but dang if that scene doesn't take your respect for the guy up a notch.
 * Santris has this down to a pat. He's so far shown no sign of magic or the Plague, and regardless seems to be masterminding half the plot around.
 * Barrier-Busting Blow: Iggy does not have very much success with walls in Ebon Creek. The demonslayer stands up to shoot over it, and Grenner just shatters the thing effortlessly. Justified in that he's working with either dried soil or mud, neither of which are particularly helpful. He implies that this happened the first time he made a wall, too.
 * Big Bad Duumvirate: Santris, Grenner, and Maxwell are pretty much equals, with the as-of undefined Bartleby as an equally powerful third agent.
 * Beware the Silly Ones: Kirk.
 * Big Screwed-Up Family: The Wights, along with Badass Family.
 * Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: Arrie, Cerene, and Sally.
 * Blood Knight: Alaster proceeds to kill a mook and then continue chatting up the guy's corpse.
 * Bloody Murder: Jericho's blood is acidic. He melts a sword in half while being cut. It's also purple.

"Kirk: Do you have any idea what that means? Well, the fun truth of it is, I don't have a clue either. *cue Slasher Smile* Let's find out together, huh? Iggy: For the record, that's the dumbest threat I've ever heard."
 * Blood Magic: Arthur.
 * Body Horror: All over the place. The 'powers' introduced so far are either elemental manipulation or something horrifyingly organic.
 * Body Snatcher:  does it in an especially Squicky manner; Word of God states that   body just goes under the host's skin and moves them around like they're some kind of body suit. Chew on that mental image.
 * Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick: Seems to be Arthur's M.O. He complains in a mopey tone about how everything's going wrong and then just as casually says "anyway, time to rip your soul from your living flesh."
 * Calling Your Attacks: Some, but not others. Kirk seems to do it mainly, but Trevor does it once. Incidentally, both were using Morty at the time.
 * Color Coded for Your Convenience: Cerene can 'prism' her personality into Red, Blue, and Grey Cerene, colored appropriately. Also, the flasback arc shows that many of the main characters' appearances have changed color from exposure to the Plague.
 * Also justified with mana, explanation starting here and continuing onto the next page.
 * Cute Bruiser: Sally seems to swing between this and Blood Knight; puppy cute one minute and gleefully quoting Breaking Benjamin and punching out mooks the next. Though, the cute side seems only reserved for Bael.
 * The Corruption: The Plague
 * Dark Is Not Evil: Seemingly all sympathetic characters have shades of this, but especially Kirk. See that guy? The one in the spiky Mook armor with a demon following him around? He's one of the nicest, not to mention funniest, characters introduced, and the resident Ensemble Darkhorse.
 * Morty himself could count, as he's a red-eyed Extreme Omnivore demon, and absolutely adorable. Also? The reason he's with Kirk is because Kirk was in a good mood and gave him a hug when they met.
 * Death Is a Slap on The Wrist: Maxwell is killed by a sudden falling mook. Arthur proceeds to poke his corpse with one foot, sigh, and complain.
 * Doing In the Scientist/ Doing In the Wizard: Played with- there are both scientific and magical explanations given.
 * The Dragon: Maggie Tyburn for Bartleby.
 * Early-Bird Cameo: Sally can be seen punching Kirk in the face long before he's introduced as a significant character. Arthur also mentions Bartleby offhandedly before he's introduced in the Flashback Arc.
 * References to a 'Morris' have been made.
 * Elemental Powers: A good number of the main cast
 * Dishing Out Dirt: Earthart Iggy
 * Playing with Fire: Nick, Arthur
 * Shock and Awe: Charlie
 * An Ice Person: General Victus
 * Dark Is Edgy: Maxwell
 * Empathic Weapon / Equippable Ally: Morty seems to fit this role. So far he's been an arm cannon, a drill and a sword, also making him a Shapeshifter Weapon.
 * Enigmatic Minion: Alaster, possibly. His intentions with those meat hooks may not be pure, but at least he seems to have his own ideas...
 * Exotic Eye Designs: Seems to be a racial trait of the Thal'Nasians. If you look carefully, Trevor, Arrie, and Victus have a darker band of color around the outside of their eye, making it look like their eyes are glowing. Arthur identifies Arrie as Thal'Nasian at a glance, mentioning her eyes. Azgrut also has these same eyes, as does Bartleby Hayse, and Victus states that Azgrut is "clealry Thal'Nasian".
 * Extreme Omnivore: Justified in that demons incorporate what they eat into their anatomy. Morty's position as a weapon is probably because his diet seems to consist mostly of guns and a paper cutter.
 * Eyes of Gold: Santris.
 * Faceless Goons: Subverted- When Bael slaughters a group of Mooks, Kirk proceeds to stop and give a touching euology "From one nobody to another"
 * Five-Man Band: Albeit with no clearly defined hero.
 * Four-Star Badass: General John Victus. It has been mentioned that he could freeze the entirety of Ebon Creek.
 * Fridge Brilliance: Why would Trevor have a giant drill just lying around for him to summon? He's an inventor.
 * Fridge Horror: It's discussed that Morty might be a Plague-infected baby. Now consider how well he seems to understand human speech, and, unlike other Demons, shows genuine attachment to Kirk, who may or may not be the first 'parent figure' he's seen...
 * Funny Background Event: A rather serious standoff between Iggy and Bael is interspersed by comments from Kirk and Nick. Nick does this so often it could be his M.O.
 * Gas Mask Mooks: Kirk before losing his mask, along with the rest of the troop that got taken out.
 * Glass Cannon: Charlie could almost qualify as a Squishy Wizard.
 * Good Is Not Nice: While Bael may be helping the main characters, he's certianly not pulling any punches. Word of God even compares him to Jet in that aspect.
 * Good Thing You Can Heal: Played with, as it's shown that regenerating your body through plague powers actually furthers the infection, but people do certainly seem to walk off a lot of pretty nasty wounds. (getting your hands cut off, for example, though Charlie was really not happy about that)
 * Heterosexual Life Partners: This troper very nearly ships Flashback-arc Iggy and Bael.
 * How Do I Shot Web?: Iggy figured out how to use his power because he "would have killed for a wall" at the time. Kirk makes it very apparent that he has no idea what he's doing, but it doesn't seem to slow him down much.


 * Instant Runes: Appear whenever Trevor summons his weapons. Said runes are also all over the resulting object.
 * It's All My Fault:  seems to think so, concerning
 * Light Is Not Good: So far, two people show up in a white suit. Charlie sports one in the Flashback Arc, where he's completely nuts, and Bartleby, who has already shown several telltale signs of powerful dangerous villain.
 * Lethal Harmless Powers: Arrie makes portals. She killed Maxwell with nothing but that and a bit of handy terminal velocity.
 * Little Dead Riding Hood: Averted with Red Cerene, who is both aggressive and has some nasty looking claws. She doesn't quite fit Lady in Red, either.
 * Lovecraftian Superpower: What the Plague hands out like candy to it's victims. But most notably Kirk, Cerene, Bael, Grenner and Kolt.
 * Mind Control Eyes: People controlled by William get large, blank round ones.
 * Mismatched Eyes: Trevor has one blue eye and one green eye.
 * Mook Face Turn: Happens off screen to Kirk when he's left for dead after a fight early in the story.
 * Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate: It's hard to believe Dr. Kolt ever actually helped people. Grenner, on the other hand, is so far the nicest introduced villain, not counting Azgrut who seems to just want to be left alone.
 * More Teeth Than the Osmond Family: A few characters have quite the set of gnashers, most noticably Alaster. Sally also sports these, but that's only when her temper runs unchecked (or possibly her bloodlust; she smiles with prominent fangs in an early scene after beating an entire troop of mooks.
 * Mundane Utility: Iggy uses his powers to sculpt; later, Nick is seen using his to see better in a dark tunnel.
 * Everything produced by Trevor's Hammerspace is covered in runes. Up to and including a clipboard and pen he uses to write a letter.
 * Nice Hat: Say what you like about Bael, that is a FINE hat.
 * Apparently inherited from Charlie.
 * Not So Harmless: Arthur is introduced as a mopey chain-smoker getting ordered around by his daughter. Then he reminds people that he's a Wight.
 * Official Couple: Bael and Sally; Trevor and Arrie may be... the alt text pointed out a She Is Not My Girlfriend moment.
 * Only Sane Man: Nick may be approaching this; while Iggy, Kirk, and Trevor are pretty sane themselves, they just tend to roll with the weirdness as it goes on.
 * Arrie seems to be shaping up as an Only Sane Woman for the Asylum team.
 * Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette: Alaster, Gray Cerene, Merry and Arthur.
 * Personality Powers: Played with; it's shown that Nick has a temper, but he's not nearly as hotheaded as the classic 'Fire person' is. Also, Sally's violent tendencies are because of her Plague infection, rather than the other way around. Charlie was batshit insane in the flashback arc, but seems to have since gained coherence if nothing else.
 * Playing with Syringes: One of the many, many things that makes Kolt really unnerving.
 * Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Morty is positively tiny compared to the demons we've seen so far and yet has been instrumental in killing one and wiped the smirk off of Nigh Invulnerable Jericho. Admittedly, he's been working with Kirk, but still.
 * Power Glows: With in-universe explanation, see Color Coded For Your Convenience.
 * Punch Clock Villain: Azgrut appears, berates the heroes for beating up on his killer robot, and then tells them to shut up and go upstairs. He's so far made no effort whatsoever to stop the heroes.
 * Red Eyes, Take Warning: Sally, Bael, Red Cerene; Arthur's glasses flash red when he's about to get nasty. Also subverted with Morty, who is ridiculously lovable, and Grenner, who despite being a villain, seems to be one of the more moral, sympathetic characters introduced so far.
 * And played terrifyingly straight with Demon Form Grenner. HUGE red eyes that take up the majority of his face. No discernable irises or sclera. Looks like Slenderman. Need I say more?
 * Scarf of Asskicking: Trevor
 * Shout-Out: Some characters seem to have frequent references to a specific show/game/what have you.
 * Kirk and Homestuck
 * Trevor and Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, though that's probably because of his blatant use of DRILLS.
 * Arrie and Portal, understandably.
 * And recently, Word of God has established that Charlie contains a few well-placed One Piece references.
 * Sally misses playing Silent Hill.
 * Shown Their Work: The explanation on why mana glows is very well thought-out. Also, Charlie clearly needs either a connection with his target or electricity to already be present before he can zap it- he doesn't shoot lightning.
 * Sigil Spam: The logos for the Wight Family and Santris Industries, a Slasher Smile mask and a skull shaped gear respectivly, can be found everywhere. All the Wights wear some trinket with the mask on it and the Gas Mask Mooks wear both symbols.
 * Smug Super: Jericho is Nigh Invulnerable. He's also a huge jerk about it.
 * Talking Is a Free Action: Bael gets immobilized, yet his mouth still works, a fact which he takes full advantage of.
 * The Undead: The Wights apparently all are... but they seem to be varying degrees of dead-ness.
 * This Is a Drill: Trevor's Weapon of Choice.
 * Undeathly Pallor: Apparently this is the main trait of the Wights. Samantha is greenish, Maxwell, Alaster, William and Jericho are gray, and Arthur just looks like a guy who could probably use a tan.
 * Azgrut may well have nothing to do with the Wights, but with the huge bags under his eye and the bluish skin, he Looks Like Cesare.
 * Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Even characters who are new to Ebon Creek tend to set aside the Abitrary Skepticism fast. Arrie seems to take  right in stride, though she's visibly shaken at first.
 * Nick gets angry enough to spontaneously combust. Trevor nonchalantly continues the conversation and then, as an afterthought, asks him to put himself out, because he's writing on flammable paper.
 * Well-Intentioned Extremist: Grenner just 'really' wants to cure the Plague. After seeing what it can DO to people,, can you BLAME the guy?
 * Which Me?: Cerene's powers include having three slightly independant bodies. She/they have a lot of trouble deciding what pronouns to use for eachother-self.
 * White Shirt of Death: Flashback-arc Charlie is decked out in white when he picks a fight with Alaster and Merry; one comment even notes "you’re our man in the white suit, Charlie, time to get some stains."
 * World of Snark: Almost all of the funny comes from the characters' reactions to what is otherwise a rather dark setting.
