8-Bit Theater/Characters: Difference between revisions

 

== Warriors of Light ==

'''Fighter''': ''"But we're heroes so it's okay when '''we''' do that."'' }}

 

=== Black Mage Evilwizardington ===

 

 

* [[Ambidextrous Sprite]]: The crescent moon on his Blue Mage outfit.

=== Fighter McWarrior ===

 

 

* [[Achievements in Ignorance]]: Glorious Chainsaw Method actually depended on Fighter being too dumb to realize it's impossible. [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2008/06/24/episode-1008-charmed-im-sure/ And it worked.]

* [[Barrier Warrior]]: After his class change, he gained the ability to block ''anything'' with his swords. {{spoiler|That included [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/05/09/episode-1126-impasse/ powered-up Black Mage's evil black energy tendrils] and even [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/09/08/episode-1170-happy-landings/ the Earth itself].}}

* [[Berserk Button]]: Fighter will not tolerate the ''idea'' of someone talking about purposely harming Black Mage. Not even if that person is his ally. Which stopped both Red Mage and Thief from their idea. {{spoiler|When Black Mage was killed by Lich, Fighter reacted... [[Unstoppable Rage|poorly]]}}.

'''Fighter''': '''''I SAID GET UP!''''' }}

* [[Brown Note]]: Of sorts. Listening to Fighter talk can reduce the intelligence of anyone nearby. Known victims are [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2001/09/07/episode-076-fighter-and-red-mage-are-back/ Red Mage], [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2004/01/24/episode-376-four-hundred-pounds-of-flavor/ Black Mage], and [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2003/04/08/episode-270-fighter-morissette/ possibly] [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2003/04/12/episode-272-mind-games/ Drizz'l]. {{spoiler|It has the opposite effect on Chaos.}}

* [[Bumbling Sidekick]]: At times. Although he occasionally proves to be [[Dumbass Has a Point|smarter]], [[Made of Iron|deadlier]], and basically more competent than his fellow Light Warriors, and ''always'' holds [[Token Good Teammate|the moral high ground]], he mostly serves as the local [[The Ditz|ditz]].

* [[Character Alignment]]: [[Lawful Good|Confirmed]] [[Neutral Good|to be]] [[Chaotic Good|good]] in [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/12/15/episode-1204-chew-on-that/ this strip].

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: He lives in different realities most of the time. The brief times he collides with the one everyone else lives in usually combines some [[Department of Redundancy Department|combination]] of [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]], [[Too Dumb to Fool]], and [[Too Dumb to Live]]. Also [[Too Dumb to Live|Too Dumb To Die]], apparently. In any case among his usual frolicking in Happy Cloud Land Where [[Vitriolic Best Buds|Black Mage is my friend]], he occasionally dips down to reality with piercing insights, usually resulting in...

* [[The Cloud Cuckoolander Was Right]]: Happens more than once. When he's in the [[Talkative Loon|right spatial alignment]]. Clashes heavily with [[Dumbass Has a Point]] and leaves everyone wondering exactly where the line between [[Obfuscating Stupidity]], insanity, and pure idiocy lies. Anyone needing a justification?

'''Red Mage''': He's just kidding of... of course... }}

** Although, that said, sometimes you get things like this:

** I rest my case.

* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]

=== Red Mage Statscowski ===

 

'''Red Mage''': ''"Now imagine what'll happen when physics tries to figure it out!"'' }}

 

* [[Ambidextrous Sprite]]: The feather on his hat(s).

* [[Accidental Innuendo]]: He does this so frequently it seems like it might actually be on purpose.

* [[An Ice Person]]: Although he spent a large time trying to keep his spell use "[[Stupid Neutral|neutral]]," he eventually started specializing in ice spells, including one that could destroy an entire universe.

* [[But You Screw One Goat!]]: "Animal husbandry." That is all.

* [[Does Not Understand Sarcasm]]: "[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2007/01/11/episode-794-the-nuance-of-language/ We're going to have a code. When I stab you in the ear, that means I'm being sarcastic.] ''Got it''?"

* [[Evilutionary Biologist]]: When it comes to Chocobo breeding.

Also, I shot magic into their chromosones until they turned inside out, evolution is my bitch. }}

* {{spoiler|[[Fake Memories]]: "[http://www.nuklearpower.com/2004/07/31/episode-447-henry-rollins-wrote-a-song-about-thief/ Plus, Red Mage? You can NOT tell him this, but he's not actually a cross dresser and he has no daddy issues. I've just been messin' with his head.]"}}

* [[Dark Is Not Evil]]

'''Princess Sara''': ''"What're you gonna have him do? [[Poke the Poodle|Poke me in the ribs?]]"'' <br />

'''Garland:''' ''"[[Harmless Villain|Oh heavens no. I'm nefarious, not cruel.]]"'' }}

=== Drizz'l ===

 

 

* [[The Beast Master]]: Tends to rely on monsters (the giant spiders, camel spider, platypus, random encounters in the Temple, and the Fiends). Likely a Ranger/Fighter, being a Drizzt ripoff.

=== Bikke ===

 

 

* [[Ambidextrous Sprite]]: Though it's entirely probable that he has two perfectly healthy eyes and intentionally moves his eyepatch when he turns.

=== Vilbert von Vampire ===

 

 

* [[Basement Dweller]]: [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2003/12/30/episode-366-evil-has-a-name/ Moved out of his parents' house - and into their basement]. But after joining the Dark Warriors [http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/03/24/episode-1108-deathless-of-a-salesman/ he moved into a completely different basement].

== The Other Warriors ==

 

'''Thief''': ''"It's because they aren't smart! You were able to fool them. '''You'''."'' }}

=== Sarda ===

 

 

* [[A God Am I]]

=== Black Belt ===

 

 

* [[Achievements in Ignorance]]

=== Dragoon ===

 

 

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: While [[Only Sane Man|White Mage]] and [[Butt Monkey|Onion Kid]] list off the Light Warriors' atrocities, Dragoon complains about their unwittingly taking his spear with them to Sarda.

=== King Steve ===

 

'''King Steve''': ''"Yes, yes. I designed it that way, you know."'' }}

 

=== Chaos ===

 

 

* [[Affably Evil]]: Rather sporting to the Light Warriors and, well, anyone who wants to destroy the world in a "cakeological singularity" can't be all bad.

=== The Cultists ===

 

'''Mrr'grt''': ''"As much!"'' }}

* [[Big Bad Wannabe|Big Bad Wannabes]]: Actually got close to ending reality in both of their appearances, but they still pale in comparison to the Fiends, Sarda, and the Light Warriors.
