Line 539:
* [[Determined Defeatist]]: In his later appearances, especially ''[[Discworld/The Last Hero|The Last Hero]]''.
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|With a half brick. In a sock.]]
* [[Doctor Jekyll and Mister Jack Daniels]]: In ''[[Discworld/The Last Continent|The Last Continent]]'' and ''[[Discworld/Sourcery|Sourcery]]'' his personality pretty much inverts itself after a few beers.
* [[The Drag Along]]: All the adventures he is pulled into are against his will. See quote above.
* [[Genius Ditz]]: Due to his ability to survive life in Unseen University, he knows psychological warfare inside out and can become [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]] in the right situation. However, this usually only occurs when running is no longer an option.
* [[Hey, It's That Voice!]]: Eric Idle played him in the two Discworld games.
* [[High Hopes, Zero Talent]]: Is the [[Trope Codifier]].
* [[DoctorIn JekyllVino and Mister Jack DanielsVeritas]]: In ''[[Discworld/The Last Continent|The Last Continent]]'' and ''[[Discworld/Sourcery|Sourcery]]'' his personality pretty much inverts itself after a few beers.
* [[Inept Mage]]: Sure, he can't do magic to save his life, but he's very insistent that his wannabe-[[Nice Hat]] stays with him. It says "Wizzard" on it in sequins.
** He ''is'' actually a wizard, however - he can, for instance, see octarine and Death. He just happens to be almost completely inept at spells. To date, the only impressive feat of magic he has ever done on his own is mentally unlocking a door after much strain and effort at the end of ''[[Discworld/The Light Fantastic|The Light Fantastic]]''.
Line 552:
* [[Non-Action Guy]]: Unless you count running as a action.
* [[Omniglot]]: Particularly when it comes to screaming for help.
{{quote|Rincewind could scream for mercy in nineteen languages, and just scream in another forty-four. -- |''[[Discworld/Interesting Times|Interesting Times]]''}}
** To be fair, he really does speak a lot of languages, mostly for the sake of narrative convenience. That was what got him hired by Twoflower to begin with.
* [[Only One Name]]: Once he mentions that he doesn't know whether he has a first name.
Line 1,451:
* [[Names to Trust Immediately]]
