Somewhere, off in the vast reserves of the many worlds... universes... whatever they are, several characters have been unceremoniously wrenched from their own continuity and dropped into modern-day Earth, with the Internet. Somewhere else on a more domestic locale (that is, Earth itself), a bunch of characters joined an Internet forum. Thus was born Charchat, and it's all downhill from there.

Charchat is a ZetaBoards roleplay forum with a twist: you join as your character, and you post as your character, as if they were literally on a chat board. (There's OOC chat too, of course.) As one can expect, this spawns all of the hilarity and drama that a real forum can make.

Tropes used in Charchat include:

• Adorkable -- Meica's sweetness, it burns!
• Aliens Speaking English -- Any non-human life form who's found his or her way onto the forum counts as this.
• All a Part of the Job -- Displayed by a good deal of the characters, as there are various super heroes, vigilantes, FBI Agents, etc.
• Aloof Big Brother -- Mycroft.
• Afraid of Needles -- Connor.
• Actual Pacifist -- Shelby is vocal about her aversion to violence and her opposition to those who make use of it. This actually just ends up revealing her as fickle, since her best friends are a pair of murdering vigilantes.
• Attractive Bent Gender -- Mariya.
• Audience? What Audience? -- Just about everybody else but Anakin Skywalker himself seems to either be well-versed in, or is at least aware, of the Star Wars fandom. Any mentions of Darth Vader, or anything else canon that has yet to happen to him, Anakin just reacts with total confusion.
• Awesome By Analysis -- Sherlock Holmes.
• Badass Bookworm -- Sherlock Holmes and Shinichi Kudo.
• Badass Normal -- The MacManus brothers and Robin.

• Deliberately Cute Child -- Miharu is very much aware of his own cuteness and uses it to his advantage or to torment others.
• Depraved Homosexual-- Grell and Alois
  • Murphy and Connor, depending on who you ask.
• Doing It for the Art -- Sherlock Holmes, Kaitou Kid, Shinichi Kudo.
• Dude, Not Funny -- Jaelin and Trivia discuss what would happen if monsters discovered the Internet, and Jae cracks a joke about Kronos joining the forum...
• Dude, Where's My Respect? -- Speedy who wants to be treated like a hero and not a sidekick.
  • This also accounts for Sherlock when people mock his work despite the fact it's been used to help thousands and solve the worst of crimes.
