Ava Wyreth

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Alien Among Us - She spent some time on Earth in disguise, to learn more about the culture.
  • Aliens Are Bastards - Averted. Ava is generally a nice person, and her race isn't particularly warlike or xenophobic.
  • Aliens Speaking English - Subverted. Those of Ava's race who know English spent time there and picked up the language.
  • Badass Bookworm - While highly intellectual, Ava is still very powerfully armed and capable of holding her own in a fight.
  • Bag of Holding - Ava's people, having technology that allows the distortion of space-time, frequently design containers that can hold a great deal more than they ordinarily would, such as Ava's backpack.
  • Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism - Mostly averted. Cheros have very few biological differences between genders, amounting mostly to color and skin patterns.
  • Bizarre Alien Biology - Members of Ava's species have hollow, birdlike bones and upper-body stamina that is several times greater than that of most humans.
  • Blue and Orange Morality - Ava wouldn't usually commit a crime against anyone without a very good reason. She would, however, have no problems asking someone else to 'borrow' certain items for her, For Science! (see below). This doesn't extend to murder or maiming, fortunately.
  • Constantly Curious - Luckily, this was accepted and even encouraged in Ava's family, given the nature of their professions.
  • Cool Airship - Ava's home is an extremely comfortable airship... that is very heavily armed and armored, with an unusually high top speed and stabilization systems that are said to require the force of multiple direct lightning strikes to undermine.
  • Family Business - The Wyreths were a line of inventors.
  • Famous Ancestor - The first to start the family business is recognized as the pioneer of clockwork-based wings. A later descendant is equally legendary for having supposedly transferred her full being into an automaton.
  • - While wingless, Ava's people take advantage of their bone structure through artificially created wings.
  • For Science! - In spades. For example, Ava frequently designs upgrades for weapons not because she's particularly bloodthirsty, but because she thinks it will make them more efficient. She does, however, genuinely care about her creations benefiting others at different times, making this a partial subversion.
  • Gadget Watches - Ava's watch-glove can slow down or stop time for a targeted object or individual.
  • Gadgeteer Genius / Mr. Fixit - Right there in the character sheet. Also, a penchant for building various highly effective devices quickly and out of relatively basic materials.
  • Gender Is No Object - Apart from extremely low biological dimorphism, there is barely any cultural distinction between the sexes.
  • Good Parents - Ava's parents are nice, well-adjusted, happily bonded, and just as much into new, potentially volatile technology as she is.
  • Grappling Hook Pistol - Partially, and Justified. The aforementioned space-time warping is used to store usable amounts of cable in Ava's wrist-mounted grapple. Her light weight makes the tool more useful than it would be for a human.
  • Humanoid Aliens - Cheros body structure is generally humanoid, but they are much more slender than humans and usually just barely under six feet tall. They have four fingers, unusual eyes, feathery antennae, and very small pointed noses that are just barely raised.
  • I'll Pretend I Didn't Hear That - Ava thinks it isn't her business preaching to others about morality, and that as long as people don't attack her or her friends, morally questionable acts don't generally lower her opinion of them much.
  • Immortal Procreation Clause - Cheros live for about a thousand years on average, and have very low birth rates.
  • Innocent Aliens - Not quite. While they are generally peaceful, they do possess very heavy weaponry and will retaliate if attacked. This holds true for Ava herself.
  • Interspecies Romance - Averted. Human genetics are incompatible with theirs, and relationships develop too slowly for the human lifespan.
  • Intrigued by Humanity - This led to the scheduling of disguised trips to Earth and other planets with civilized races, as a form of cultural education.
  • Jet Pack - a pack that enables through blasts of steam, installed on the pumpkin robot Maurice.
  • Mental Time Travel - The watch can also rewind time for very short durations, allowing Ava to 'retry' failed attacks.
  • Mini-Mecha - Ava's greatest creation is a large, -capable, steam-powered combat suit she can pilot. While initially starting off as twice her size, several years of upgrades eventually transform it into a significantly larger craft about the size of a small house.
  • Named After Their Planet - Averted. The Cheros' home planet is named Heliolum.
  • Non-Mammal Mammaries - Averted. As part of their partly-avian, -conducive biology, females of the species have barely noticeable mammaries.
  • Really Seven Hundred Years Old - Ava is just over 200, but looks and acts like someone around 20 years of age.
  • Ridiculously-Human Robots - Ciel is a partially self-aware AI with a fully fledged personality.
  • Steampunk / Clock Punk- The entire setting is based on this, along with a bit of high-tech sci-fi.
  • Those Magnificent Flying Machines - In this setting, flying machines of this sort are used as larger-scale transport, or by air pirates.
  • Tricked-Out Gloves / Tricked-Out Shoes - Steam-powered jump boots, and the aforementioned watch-glove.
  • Twenty Minutes Into the Future - Technically, the setting's present day takes place in between 2030-2040, although this isn't really shown.
  • Unobtainium - Epherast, a brass-like alien metal. It is significantly lighter, and retains a balanced degree of flexibility and very high durability even if pounded into extremely thin sheets.
  • Unusual Ears - They have small, deer-like ears.

Aya Valentine

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Action Girl -When pushed. See Mama Bear.
  • Big Screwed-Up Family - Have you seen her family? Phantom is a insane psychopath and her nephew has already committed two murders.
  • Dark and Troubled Past - Ah yes, a vampire who had something bad happen to her before her death or in other terms, "rebirth". Never seen that before.
  • Don't Look At Me- Aya is self conscious about one of the very few obvious flaws, a scar over her left eye. Though many people comment how they don't think it looks bad, she is convinced it is.
  • Fiery Redhead- Aya might not be outspoken or wild all the time but her temper sometimes matches the color of her hair. She is passionate about many things (no not in the sexual way either) and usually a good humor sense.
  • Friend to All Children -Since she can't have child, she adores them more than normal females, because they are just that more precious. See also Mama Bear.
  • I Am What I Am- She's the unholy scourge of the world. Is she bothered anymore? Not so much. The dead are dead and vampires have un-lives to live. Also See: Don't You Dare Pity Me!- She don't want pity, she has accepted and moved on. Aya wants you to follow suit.
  • Guilt Complex- Also see sub-category: It's All My Fault- Aya blames her self for many things that happen and sometimes fully believes that she has done something whether she is aware or not, that has caused someone misery.
  • Just Friends- Aya and Jake are close, close friends. but that doesn't stop the Shippers.
  • Mama Bear- God help you if you ever touch her 'daughter' Li'l Aya. Or any other kid for that matter.
  • Undying Loyalty- Aya might be a vampire who for some reason aren't seen as the most loyal Sally and Joe's in the world. (I wonder why.) But once she comes to know you, you know she'll have your back while she helps you kick ass and knock skulls. See: The Caretaker
  • Weak-Willed- Aya is a push-over despite her being a vampire. Go frick'in figure.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:

D-F

Deadsilver

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Amnesiac Dissonance Somewhat. She remembers parts of her past, and she can't remembers others. She's in constant conflict with herself, but she tries not to show it. This can be seen in her more compassionate moments. You know, when she's not being a bitch.
  • Atomic F-Bomb On occasion, when she's surprised.
  • Cluster F-Bomb After the initial Atomic F Bomb, or just when she's pissed off.
  • Curse Cut Short Sometimes happens.
  • Face Heel Turn Not exactly evil, but she's definitely come far into the dark from her days as an Autobot.
  • Foreign Cuss Word: Its Cybertronian, glitches.
  • Fragile Speedster Armor cut down, limbs modified to be partially hollow, lighter.
  • Girl with Psycho Weapon She is a girl and she does have a scythe you'd have to be psycho to try and wield.
  • Glowing Eyes of Doom When she's mad her white pupils glow.
  • Hair-Trigger Temper - DS gets mad at nearly anything and everything and will punt/crush/slice/electrocute/run over anyone whenever she feels like it. Mostly does this so she won't seem weak. But she does anyway.
  • Hit and Run Tactics Used unless you really piss her off or just catch her off guard. Then she'll stay and fight like an idiot to prove she's just as tough. When she's not.
  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl Screamer be, like, 40' while DS is a good 16'. Yep.
  • Loss of Identity Back before her first day at the Autoboot Camp DS had a completely different personality. A completely different person that can't fully recall aspects of her life before and is struggling against Autobot and Decepticon 'values'.
  • Love At First Punch Uh... Yeah, pretty much.
  • Mother F-Bomb In the Cybertronian sense, yep.
  • Named Weapons Her scythe Thanatopsis (Which is stolen from the scene of her murder), and later Acervus Letum, another scythe. Both named for their meanings "a view or contemplation of death" and roughly "mass death" respectfully.
  • Paint It Black As she did to herself, black and grey.
  • Pardon My Klingon Nearly everything she says is in Basic(English)but she uses such words as frag, slag, glitch, Primus, Pit, Unicron, Bootleg, ect.,.
  • Property of Love Technically, I guess? She was put under Starscream's control, making her 'his property to do with as he pleases'.
  • Sir Swearsalot Nearly every. Freaking. Sentence.
  • She's Got Legs She has long legs, that she can extend to either gain height or kick someone far away, she definitely knows how to use them
  • This Is for Emphasis, Bitch Usually the at least ONE in the sentence.
  • Trauma-Induced Amnesia A crash that heavily damaged her processor and took out various parts of her memory core. Those memories lost are gone forever. No chance or remembering what she forgot.
  • Tsundere She yells, insults, fights with, and disregards the people she cares about most. Not just a Cold Shoulder, or The Violent Approach, or The Taunt. Nah, she's choice 4. All of the above.
  • Vehicular Assault She IS the vehicle. 'Nuff said.
  • Weapon for Intimidation The scythes mostly. Though the looks help with intimidation, they're effective in combat as well.

Dragos Wakefield

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • A Lady on Each Arm - Dragos usually has Zippy and Jo by his side. Though only friends it makes him the accidental pimp, but never more a pimp than Swindle.
  • Beware the Nice Ones - He is pretty nice until you are huge ass then he rips you a verbal new one.
  • Blind Seer - He doesn't have cosmic knowledge, he is just blind.
  • Dumbass Has a Point - Dude may have average intelligence but he still knew that giving a blind man a gun was a terrible idea, though a crowbar wasn't much better.
  • Real Men Eat Meat - Dragos go near veggies and fruits? NEVER.

Dr. Mrs. The Monarch

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Ambiguous Gender: All evidence says that she is 100%, absolutely, completely female, but the man voice still raises suspicion.
    • The voice is explained as the results of a heavy cigarette regimen.
  • Aren't You Going to Ravish Me?: She still holds a grudge against Brock Samson for not taking advantage of her when he had the chance.
  • Cross-Dressing Voices: voiced by Doc Hammer, who uses the most masculine voice that he can manage.
  • Dark Action Girl
  • Dark Mistress: A classic example.
  • Deadpan Snarker
  • The Dragon: She was the Monarch's right-hand woman and was in charge of his security and gadgetry; she's also a very capable combatant on her own.
  • Easy Amnesia - A hit to the back of the head kept her murderer's identities a secret from her.
  • Evilly Affable: When Dr. Monarch was torturing H.E.L.P.eR for the Ventures' location, she put a stop to it and put a comforting arm around him. And soon had exactly the information the Monarch was trying to get...
  • Friendly Enemy: She gets along really well with Dr. Venture, as well as Carrie and friends, who are all a superhero team of catwomen
  • Gadgeteer Genius: She designed the Monarch's wings, built his security system, replicated Captain Sunshine's solar powers, and more.
  • Hypercompetent Sidekick: She was The Dragon for someone she could outdo in a lot of things.
  • I Have Many Names: She has been officially known as Lady Au Pair, Queen Etherea, Dr. Girlfriend, Sheila, and Dr. Mrs. The Monarch; The Monarch has also called her Dr. Ex Girlfriend, Dr. Fiancee, and Dr. My Wife.
  • Larynx Dissonance: And HOW!
  • Morality Pet: Her main purpose was to make the Monarch more relatable.
  • Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate: But at least she is clearly an engineer of some sort, and Word of God confirms that she has a Ph. D.
  • Nice Crown - So nice, Jana stole it from her dead corpse.
  • Stripperiffic: Her costume.
  • Who Dunnit to Me? - Was killed by Barry and Jana, but has no memory of it. Luckily, she isn't trying to figure out who did it.

Evil Emperor Zurg

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • 0% Approval Rating- What, you'd like an Evil Emperor who is out to enslave the population? In the show, it's canon that he has a negative approval rating with galactic constituents.
  • Above Good and Evil- Some acts as Grace are--although admitted to be either good or evil--sometimes judged as necessary. The initiation of a purge is one such action that transcends morality and ethics. Zurg has only authorized and overseen one purge in his lifetime. A purge is the cleansing of a region or area (usually with outstanding force) from hostiles (may or may not be friendly targets).
  • Afraid of Needles- Baaaaah, needles make Zurg cry inside.
  • Affably Evil- Knits, bakes, worries about pointless and motherly things. Did I mention Zurg likes to offer his minions a complete and healthy balanced meal in the form of a sandwich with no crusts and cut into perfect, diagonal pieces?
  • Aliens Speaking English- Learned how to speak Galactic Basic by listening and understanding, through many months, of radio waves floating about in space from Galactic Basic-speaking planets.
  • Authority Equals Asskicking- Don't let that skirt fool you. Zurg can curbstomp just about anyone where he's from.
  • Badbutt- C'mon, you know Disney placed their brand on Zurg back during his conception.
  • Beneath the Mask- Despite being a proponent of evil, Zurg does have soft spots and he's not all that bad once settled in. Because of this, he often times clashes with the above trope, Becoming the Mask, and bickers internally with himself of how evil is 'evil' and how far is 'far'.
  • Becoming the Mask- Loves being an Evil Emperor so much he's accepted it as his life role. Or so one thinks.
  • Berserk Button- Don't call him a robot. R infer that he is a guy in a mask. OR endager Jo and his minions, especially Lawrence. Actually, just don't anger him at all.
  • Big Bad- Is the main antagonist in the show, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command. He's not only the man, he IS the man. Well respected on PB for having a reputation as this too.
  • Bizarre Sexual Dimorphism- Actually, this is averted. Males and females look oddly the same save for very minor differences--mainly in skeletal structure and horn bearings. Otherwise, both genders would not be told apart by outsiders. Women also have small mammary glands due to evolutionary waste (meaning, they're useless and disappearing).
  • Black Bug Room- I dare mind readers and telepaths to go in there. I even double dog dare you. Shit just got real.
  • Bread and Circuses- Sure, Zurg may be an evil overlord of vast evil but he isn't a total idiot. He keeps his government stable by supplying things for his freak show staff such as: Cake Day, public transportation, vacation slips, and even lets them roam around without security collars. Isn't he such a swell evil overlord?
  • Card-Carrying Villain- First and foremost, he refers to himself as Evil Emperor Zurg.
  • Cessation of Existence- Zurg believes that when you die and eat the dirt, you become nothing. There is no afterlife--no Heaven, and no Hell. This is a real can of worms with white knights and religious bigots.
  • The Chessmaster- Can be at times, but only during key plots.
  • Colour Coded Patrician- Purple. And lots of it.
  • The Corrupter: Oh, what money and power can't do to a person with a weakness. Zurg has manipulated many a thing in his reign as Evil Emperor ranging from people, organizations, and even planets.
  • Driven to Villainy- Evil is not born, but made. And Zurg is a perfect example of this philosophy. It is possible insanity has not only turned him from a just, merciful person into a doer of evil, but also into a legitimate villain whose sole purpose is to commit crime and nothing more.
  • The Emperor- Duh. C'mon, it's in his name. Evil Emperor Zurg.
  • Evil Minions / Mecha-Mooks- Goes hand-in-hand with being an Evil Overlord in space.
  • Evil Overlord- Double duh.
  • Evil Overlord List- Has Zurg's sticky fingers all over it.
  • Even Evil Has Standards- Zurg has standards. Period. Just don't prick him to see what they are.
  • False Friend / Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Has had one--read, one--encounter with a potentially fatal back stab. Zurg has never since then truly opened himself up after that, deeming that if a friend could be a threat then everyone can be a threat.
  • Fisher King- Planet Z, in a sense, reflects Zurg's moral alignment, mood, and mental state. In short, don't vacation there and expect a family-friendly time.
  • Friendly Enemy- Practically this with Buzz Lightyear, but much rarer than the relationship Buzz Lightyear and Warp Darkmatter share.
  • Galactic Conqueror- Triple duh.
  • Gossipy Hen- Zurg's got a big mouth, literally. He'll not think twice to spread something and cause some trouble if it suits his needs.
  • The Greatest Story Never Told- There are some things that are best never said, aren't there?
  • Hands-Off Parenting: Parents? What parents?
  • The Heretic: Being of xul origins, Zurg was regarded as an enemy to the rightful races. Ironically, even rightful xuls regarded him as an enemy, making Zurg a heretic to his entire specie. He was also callously given the title Heretic Grace during the incredibly unethical, but necessary, purge following his father's footsteps in the complete and utter annihilation of x'ng forces.
  • Hidden Agenda Villain- Only Zurg knows why he does what he does, and it will stay that way.
  • Higher-Tech Species: X'rghthu have reached an alarming level of technology and gravitonic mastery, but they are far from god-like status. Their character flaws have kept them in deep space isolation until their silent death.
  • Immortal Procreation Clause- Because of such a long lifespan, X'rghthu nativity is remarkably low.
  • Interspecies Romance- No one is genetically capable to bear children with him, so don't even go there. However, Zurg can still engage in romance with--maybe not--anyone who could actually get his interests (good luck). However, due to the trope above, getting involved with someone of lesser longevity will only lead to heartbreak and lonely centuries. Guess the consequences outweigh the benefits.
  • Jade Coloured Glasses- Is a cynic and proud.
  • Large and In Charge- Zurg is the biggest organic entity on Planet Z (besides Coco, his pet moonshark); it's only common sense his less-than-four-feet staff would bow before his towering supremacy.
  • Large Ham- THE HAMMIEST!
  • Last of His Kind- Darwin would have a field day.
  • The Lifestream- Even though Zurg doesn't believe in any religion or spirituality, X'rghthu believed that everything in the universe was connected and to them to die was to simply return to whence all creation was made. This includes people, animals, and even astrological entities such as stars and planets.
  • Lonely at the Top / Dying Alone- Although Zurg has convinced himself that evil and supreme authority are the things he'll only ever need, he still has quite a ways to go before dying of natural causes. And because of such lengthy lifespans, he has had considerable time to ponder things an average person, more or less a human, would ever weigh and take into consideration. Money is power, and power is everything; but what good is everything if there is no one around to gloat, abuse, or share it with?
  • Magnificent Bastard- Although he doesn't win regularly, he's manipulative, a large ham, cunning, and basically really good at doing what he does. In short, he'll make for a great dance partner but don't expect him to pay for dinner.
  • Money to Throw Away- Zurg is the richest being in his galaxy. Never mind that nerd, Norbert Q. Klerm and his sniveling whining.
  • Necessarily Evil- Goes right with being a pelagian villain.
  • Overly Long Name- For the sake of people's shortening attention spans, Zurg simply refers to himself as the Evil Emperor Zurg and even that is too long for some people. In extremely rare cases he will allowed to be called by his real moniker, X'iita, but only if you are very close. His real name is, with all bells and whistles attached, X'rghtaal-aat 'so X'iitamee-x'lkoquluuk 'salo xul'Tam. Yeah, thought so.
  • Outgrown Such Silly Superstitions- Religion? What the hell is that?
  • Parental Neglect- Again, what parents?
  • Parental Substitute- His long-deceased idols and guardians, the Grand Overseers-nul and -sul.
  • Pelagian Villain- Zurg can be at times, but he reserves this *gasp* grey-thinking revelation during more sincere moments.
  • Regent for Life- Graces are Graces until death. This can be achieved through natural methods, accidents, or assassination. They cannot be simply voted out; this is where assassination comes into . Note that Graces are not God Emperors.
  • Royals Who Actually Do Something- Being a Grace is not all about leisure and boredom. It often times requires the Grace to engage in multiple folds of government and daily life.They make legislature, enforce that legislature, uphold just about everything, and are even required, in cases of purges and mandatory involvement, to be at the forefront of such operations. While not warriors, Graces are the first, and foremost, of all global or galactic confrontations. Think the human equivalent of "Holy Roman Emperor", but with more checks and balances.
  • Screw the Rules, I Make Them!- Pretty much on Planet Z, but not all in one sitting. Maybe on Mondays.
  • Sins of Our Fathers- His father authorized the incredibly unethical, but necessary, purge of colony world, Atum (Ah-toom), that glassed both peaceful X'rghthu heretics and Galactic Alliance settlers. Because of this, some human survivors and descendants were butt hurt. One went as far as enacting his own "purge".
  • Space Whale
  • The Sociopath- Thankfully kept under check, especially on PB. However, this side will come out if the situation requires it.
  • The Unpronounceable- X'rghthu, basically. Most species with mobile jaws and one set of vocal chords will most likely not be able to pronounce even ten percent of the language. The percent becomes worse if you have ears.
  • Tin Tyrant- Battle armour is a must when crushing freedom and liberties under the heel of tyrannical oppression.
  • Unequal Pairing- Anyone paired with Zurg will automatically be lower than him. No questions asked.
  • Villainous Breakdown- Uh, Zurg is pretty scary when truly angered. Like a badger. With laser eyes. Yeah.
  • What Is Evil?- Either out of trickster or genuine concerns, Zurg can tear up the morality card and cause certain white knights to spasm all over the Sanctuary.
  • World of No Grandparents- Or anyone, for that matter. Graces do not come into contact family members other than parents to ensure dedication to the demanding duties and responsibilities. Some Graces do not even know their family members.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:


J-L

Jana

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Abusive Parents - Her father was never there in her life. Her alcohlic mother alternated between showing her daughter love, ignoring her, and hating her, and is an alcoholic who didn't even feed her own daughter.
  • Action Girl
  • Beneath the Mask - On the outside, Jana seems like a young, happy troublemaking girl who doesn't care one bit that she helped murder the girl she used to love. On the inside, Jana is torn between being glad to have gotten revenge, and being heart broken and guilty about killing a former friend and lover.
  • Bifauxnen
  • Bi the Way - She seems to have a preference for girls so far.
  • Children Are Innocent- Deconstructed HARD.
  • Cyborg - Thanks to a failed attempt to steal a spaceship, Jana has a robotic leg, arm, eye, and part of her brain.
  • Defeat Means Friendship - You have defeated Jana in a fight. Does she A) Get revenge? or B) Become your friend? Answer's B, obviously.
  • Fiery Redhead - Her natural hair color is red, and she has a bit of a temper.
  • Freudian Excuse - Jana grew up on Trade World, a planet filled with Crime. Her mother was barely home, so Jana eventually joined a gang of kids with similar backgrounds and stole to feed herself. Her mother's wishy washy relationship with her lead her to believe that you didn't always have to be nice and respectful to the people you loved.
  • Heroes Want Redheads - Jana's relationships have so far been with heroic half ghost clones.
  • Irrational Hatred - Jana's hatred of Psyche first started when Dani told Jana no one was helping her take care of Mere. This meant even PSYCHE wasn't helping, even though she was her second mother. Most of the people in the harem are gone, so now there is Psyche who all her anger goes to. Add what happened with Rhys, Psyche often looks like people Jana misses, and Blade, and you have a whole lot of hate going on.
  • Les Yay - Comes with the territory when you show a reference for girls.
  • Little Miss Badass - Jana can definitely hold her own in a battle.
  • Loveable Rogue - A kleptomaniac who helped in the murder of an ex-girlfriend. And also one of the friendliest, out-going young teenagers you'll ever meet.
  • Like Brother and Sister - Kev and Jana, Shadow Link and Jana, Zippy and Jana are like sisters, as are Jana and Jo.
  • Love Hurts - Poor Jana..
  • Love Makes You Crazy
  • Love Makes You Evil
  • Odd Friendship - Very many, Jana is friends with just about everyone on PB, no matter the alignment.
  • Our Werewolves Are Different - For one, she's a robotic werewolf, called a wirewolf.
  • Peer Pressure Makes You Evil - Can be persuaded to do many things if asked by the right friends.
  • Romantic Two-Girl Friendship - Had one with BOTH Danis. When the Second Dani asked her out, all the potential romance dried up.
    • Has one with Ariana, since both are reluctant to admit their growing relationship, for different reasons.
  • Shonen Hair - Short, spiky, and dyed brown.
  • Stepford Smiler - Type A, See: Beneath the Mask.
  • Sticky Fingers - Jana steals very frequently, probably because growing up on Trade world with an overworked alcoholic for a mom, stealing was the only way to get food.
  • Teens Are Monsters - Not a , so much as 'Grew up without a very clearly defined sense of morals.'
  • Tomboy - With her short hair cut, small build, and ungirly hobbies, we wouldn't blame you for thinking she was a boy at first.
  • Toxic Friend Influence - Technically, SL to Jana in a sense, but they are both just so adorable manic together, you can *possibly* forgive the two troublemakers.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds - Varies, extremely. Jana has a tendency to act uncaring or mean to a friend, not understanding that what she's doing hurts them. Zim and Jana are like this ALL THE TIME.
  • Woman Scorned - Dani REALLY shouldn't have been such a crappy girlfriend...See: Loveable Rogue.

Jo Pistonne

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Be Yourself- Jo says it like it is and doesn't care what other people think about her.
  • Brilliant but Lazy- Jo is a hard worker, but when she finally gets home it's over. She crashes on the couch and doesn't move a millimeter.
  • Common Sense- She has it!
  • Conveniently an Orphan- Because every child from Tradeworld seems to be one. Might or might not cross over with You Killed My Father (and mother, in this case), since Jo does not actively seek revenge but it is unsure what she might do when presented with the opportunity.
  • Curious as a Monkey / Constantly Curious -- Jo would often take machines apart as a child and try to put them back together to see how they worked. Come to think of it, she's still curious like that. If a new subject intrigues her, she will ask questions about it--and a lot of them.
  • False Friend: Jo was a solitary and closed person when she first came to Portal Breach for a reason. She once let someone get too close (read: Manipulative Bastard) and nearly paid the price for it.
  • Girl Next Door- The plainest girl you'll ever meet.
  • Good Scars, Evil Scars- Jo has a scar on her right shoulder. No one's probably ever seen it because her shirts conveniently hide it. And she isn't about to mention its existence anytime soon.
  • Good Parents / Deceased Parents Are the Best- Jo has few memories of her parents, but those she has are fond. They were caring and loving, and despite them dying (read: murdered) when she was six, Jo stuck to the few morals they taught her and became who she is today.
  • I Can't Believe a Guy Like You Would Notice Me- Happened once, and she nearly paid for it. See False Friend.
  • Interspecies Romance- With everyne's favorite Evil Emperor.
  • Jade-Colored Glasses- When Jo was younger, she was more of an idealist. She believed that the world could be changed if the right person was in charge. Sadly, as she grew older, she realized how unattainable that was and became more cynical and realistic because of it. But she still tends to be slightly idealistic (read: Knight in Sour Armor).
  • Loners Are Freaks- But Jo got along plenty fine all this time without a lot of friends.
  • Machine Empathy- Jo's got it. Give her some time and she'll know what's wrong with a stuttering engine or an emotional robot. Not to be confused with Technopath.
  • Not a Morning Person- There is a reason Proxy has the morning shifts at the shop.
  • Normal People- No, really. Jo is the most ordinary person you will ever meet. She has no extraordinary powers or dark, hidden secrets. She just does her thing and hopes to make some cash out of it.
  • Pastimes Prove Personality- One of Jo's hobbies is carving, and it's actually not surprising given her occupation. She's good with her hands and finds carving to be a good stress-reliever. Carving wood is a hobby, smelting iron is her job. And she loves doing both.
  • Plucky Girl- Jo is an optimistic and brave individual. Not that saving the world is something she does, but she'll stand up for someone if she thinks they're being wronged. And she's usually a very happy and cheerful person who's rarely in a bad mood.
  • Reluctant Warrior- During the Gamma-O plot.
  • She Cleans Up Nicely- Lose the grease and the huge jumpsuits, and Jo is actually kind of pretty despite the big burrito-loving hips.
  • Starving Artist- Talented mechanic, but belonging to the lowest social scale on Tradeworld.
  • Survival Mantra- "It's no use to think about what might or might not have happened. All you can do is keep moving forwards."
  • Trademark Favorite Food- Burritos. Double-meat, double-cheese. Mmmm~!
  • Weak but Skilled- Jo may be a squishy human with no powers or super-strength, but she more than makes up for it with being an ace at mechanics.
  • Wrench Wench- Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Kind of overlaps with The Blacksmith and Mr. Fixit.
  • You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry- Try to not press Jo's wrong buttons. She's usually very nice and social, but say the wrong thing around her and you might get more than you bargained for.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:

Lawrence

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Arch Enemy- NOS-4-A2 seems to have taken this spot, given that Lawrence has never managed to destroy him yet.
  • An Ice Person- His weaponry tends to have an ice theme.
  • Battle Butler- He's not much for hand to hand but he'll fight if necessary.
  • Berserk Button- Being called a thing, or told that his emotions aren't real.
  • Beware the Quiet Ones- Lawrence is generally soft-spoken, but don't make the mistake of pissing him off.
  • Bi the Way- Generally appears to be asexual, but there is that crush on Zurg...
  • Cold Sniper- He tries to be this when he's hunting someone, but sometimes his anger can get the better of him.
  • Covert Pervert- There are some rather interesting fantasies going on in that processor of his sometimes . . .
  • Deadpan Snarker
  • Even Evil Has Standards- Was rather vocal in protesting Jana's entirely bad idea of becoming a padawan, and doesn't like how Starscream is trying to use Livewire.
  • Fire-Forged Friends- With Proxy, after fighting on the same side in an attack on Factory Zeta.
  • Freeze Ray- The Ice Shrieker sniper rifle, given to Lawrence by Zurg. Doesn't freeze things in actual combat, but it does in the Sanctuary.
  • Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!, Quit Your Whining- Lawrence gets to put all that practice in Percussive Maintenance to good use when Zurg is too busy drowning in his angst to make up with Jo.
  • Hypercompetent Sidekick- Lawrence is apparently the best minion Zurg's ever had.
  • Hyperspace Arsenal- Stores his weapons and a few other things in one of these.
  • I Choose to Stay- Despite the strangeness of Portal Breach, if given the choice, Lawrence would stay there rather than return to his home universe. His family is there, after all.
  • I Want My Beloved to Be Happy- The reason Lawrence will never act on that crush he has.
  • Kuudere- Type 1 with some Type 2 tendencies; to most people he seems to be cold and nigh emotionless, but if you manage to befriend him he may show you his softer side.
  • More Than Mind Control - The first time Lawrence was controlled in the recent Energy Plant battle wasn't unwilling at all...
  • Nothing Personal
  • Not So Stoic- It takes a lot to rattle Lawrence usually, but once that does happen, he'll get emotional like nearly everyone else.
  • Only Sane Man- Yes, he'll have his somewhat cracky moments, but overall he's fairly immune to getting dragged into everyone else's wackiness.
  • Organics Are Cthulhu- It's very deeply buried indeed, but the butler has a subconscious fear of organics due to all the horrible things they've done to him or other robots. It only tends to come out in moments of extreme duress, though.
  • Resigned to the Call- Doesn't really want to have to fix the Breach's timestream, but he'll do so when he has to.
  • Ridiculously-Human Robots
  • Robot Butler- Duh.
  • Servile Snarker- He only aims his snark at Zurg in rare circumstances, though.
  • Shipper on Deck- Much like Kev above, Lawrence also ships Jo and Zurg, to the point where he demanded his boss to go make up with the mechanic after they had a falling out.
  • The Stoic- Pretty much Lawrence's default emotional mode.
  • Subordinate Excuse- He has a crush on Zurg, so working for him is only natural.
  • Time Master- Thanks to the Chronoscepter and having a Quantum Actuator installed, he can alter time to his will and repair anomalies (and himself/others, by reversing time), though he really hasn't had much chance to do this yet.
  • Underestimating Badassery- Go ahead, Proxy, taunt the mild-mannered butler; I'm sure he won't mind.
  • Undying Loyalty- To Zurg and Jo, though Proxy is slowly earning a place here too.
  • What Measure Is a Non-Human?- Went through a brief round of this thanks to NOS-4-A2.
  • With Due Respect- Has only used this on Zurg once so far.

Leslie

  • Bow and Sword in Accord -Don’t be fooled by her sweet demeanor, this woman can wield weapons like a pro.

  • Every Proper Lady Should Curtsy - The faerie is formal, and came from a proper time era.

  • The Golden Rule - For the most part, Leslie is considerate to everyone, and only wishes to be treated in the same respect.

  • Immortality - She’s a faerie. End of story.
  • Interspecies Romance - Faerie and everybody’s favorite mouthless alien.
  • Lunacy - No, she’s not exposed to radiation, the moon just makes her pretty and glowy.
  • Only Sane Woman - Poor Leslie, she thought the asylum was bad? Most of this place belongs in one!
  • Older Than They Look - 306 and still lookin’ good.
  • Pride - Again, she’s a fae. She likes humans, but considers herself much better than the ‘silly mortals.’
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts - Don’t you know it? Kev and Leslie even make ME sick sometimes.
  • What Beautiful Eyes! - Times this by two. Her eyes are a pretty pale grey-yellow color, and her pupils are shaped like crescent moons.

Overcast

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Afraid of Blood- OV always had an aversion to blood(Despite liking how it tasted), the incidents around the time she was turned into a vampire made this aversion into fear. Which is kinda funny since she's a vampire.
  • Apologises a Lot- Depends, really. Anywhere from apologising a lot to apologising for seemingly nothing or things that aren't her fault.
  • Berserk Button- She has many.
  • Black Sheep- Having never gotten along well with her family and constantly having her views ignored by said family is the reason for this.
  • Boy Meets Ghoul
  • Daddy's Girl- OV loves and misses her father, in fact he's the only one she cares about from her 'original reality'. Not to mention to loves and misses her 'unofficially adopted father' Malum.
  • Dark and Troubled Past- From minor bad experiences in her childhood to traumatic incidences In early adult hood. Its all here for OV.
  • Despair Event Horizon- Somewhat averted, OV still has moments where she feels completely hopeless. But with help from friends it is usually overcome.... For awhile, at least.
  • Driven to Suicide- OV has had several moments like this, but she's always been talked out of it.
  • Friend to All Children- Absolutely LOVES children, from the innocent adorable ones to the mischief causing ones that like to blow things up.
  • Guilt Complex- Goes along with 'Apologises a Lot'. She feels guilty about.... Lots of stuff. Stuff thats not even her fault sometimes.
  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl- He's a Cybertronian, she's a 5'3" vampire. What do you think?
  • I Am Not My Mother- She absolutely hates the woman and wants nothing more to be nothing like her and to be better then her.
  • Interspecies Romance- With Swindle.

P-S

Pirate Lord Ridley

A description of the character goes here.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Asskicking Equals Authority - Leader of the Space Pirates for a reason.
  • Attack! Attack! Attack! - Ridley usually never backs down out of his own free will, even if it is a sure loss on his part.
  • Bad Boss - Are you a Space Pirate? You're just a pawn to him.
  • The Bad Guy Wins - Seen when Ridley took down Samus Aran in the Mountains. Notably he was too full of himself to check whether she was dead or not, but he took her suit.
  • The Berserker - This guy will fight anything, from a blue alien super genius to a laser-wielding fox.
  • Big Bad - Now that he's at Portal Breach, Ridley is done being the second or third to last boss. Granted he was usually the mastermind in his world, but he never got the role of final boss. This time though, he's taking head role!
  • Big Red Button - Pushed by accident in the Sam/MM rescue thread when the two caused rocks to crush Ridley. A stray rock hit the button.
  • Brown Note - His screech irritates wildlife around him and causes it to turn hostile. Seen when his screeches of pain did this and caused hell for the Pirates during the installation of the explosive systems. Ouch.
  • The Caligula - Any Space Pirates that step too far out of line can say their prayers.
  • Catastrophic Countdown - Taken to the extreme when Shift/Samara and Megamind had to flee Ridley's Icelands base with a ticking clock.
  • Collapsing Lair - See Catastrophic Countdown.
  • Lightning Bruiser - Capable of outflying agile gunships. Good luck catching him.
  • Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot - A giant cyborg space dragon is the leader of the Space Pirates.
  • Obviously Evil - No real explanation needed.
  • Our Dragons Are Different - Since when has a dragon of all things been advanced in technology and the leader of a galactic scale force?
  • Played for Laughs - Shown when Livewires RP'er poofed in chat and turned Ridley into a cat. He was not amused. His RP'er however, was very amused.
  • Psycho for Hire - The reason he is the leader of the Space Pirates may just be because he loves being able to hurt others.
  • Screaming Warrior - His high-decibel screech will cause you all kinds of hell, and he loves to screech in battle.
  • Self-Destruct Mechanism - What Ridley's Big Red Button activated.
  • Suicidal Overconfidence - What it says on the tin. Hell, Ridley wouldn't be afraid to take on even Zurg if he had to, despite the knowledge that Zurg is so much more powerful than he is.

  • Legions of Hell - Prix Had legions when he was in hell, and came up with an army of his own Tigers and Bears.

  • One-Man Army - refer to both Megamind fights.
  • Our Demons Are Different - Carmorph demon.
  • Rage Against the Heavens - Before coming to PB Prix had other agendas, mostly they involved taking over the mortal world and destroying Automotive God.

  • The Berserker - Refer to any fight Prixlezub has ever been in.
  • The Caligula - Prix was a tyrannical and merciless military leader. And now he has Tigers and Bears, he is a triple threat.
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting - Prix has a human form.

Shift/Samara Fifer

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Artificial Human - She is a robotic construct with an adaptable A.I. core that was made to be as human as possible for her time. Hell, she IS an A.I. in a robot body.
  • Character Development - Samara's involvement in Breach have begun to show and develop her A.I. personality.
  • Cute Bookworm - She loves loves loves LOVES to read.
  • Do Androids Dream - Samara does. In sleep and day-dreaming.

  • Loss of Identity - Having suffered some head trauma and program malfunctions, she's getting some repairs done to get back to who she was before coming to Breach.

  • Nerds Are Sexy - Sam's the biggest nerd you could know, but she's cute when she's all intellectual.
  • Obligatory Swearing - Being a New Yorker, you tend to be around potty-mouths.....a LOT of potty-mouths. You also tend to pick up such colorful vocabulary yourself. Sam tends to use only the 'light' swears on occasion. She has to control her mouth around the youngin's and her boss, Drakken.
  • Odd Friendship - She seems to get along with a fair amount of people. Megamind turned out to be one of her closest friends.
  • Oh Crap - Sam's been having a lot of 'oh crap' moments lately in basic social situations.

  • Robot Girl

  • Cute Bruiser- She isn't afraid to get in fights, and is constantly trying to prove herself to be quite a tough little punk.
