It was [[The End of the World
Each dimension is a "gamma" named after their respective Portal and contains people of the same temperament, all except for Gamma-X ([[Title Drop|Portal Breach]]), ruled by the illustrious Portal-X the Wise. He just wants to save people, [[Big Damn Heroes|deserving]] or [[Designated Villain|not]], and have a good time. Some settle down and make names for themselves, whereas some do not and fade into [[Put
The citizens of "The Breach" (most people live on the main planet) are of a wide variety, from [[Buzz Lightyear of Star Command|Evil Emperor Zurg]], to [[Hellboy]], to [[Danny Phantom|Dani and Phantom]], to [[Transformers|Starscream and Swindle]] and... [[Loads and Loads of Characters|you get the idea]].

▲=== It is a play-by-post RPG forum complete with an in-character "chatbox" for realtime roleplaying and contains examples of: ===
* [[Action Girl]] - ''Tons''. Some are considered [[Hot Amazon|Hot Amazons]], others are more [[Lady of War]] types, and some are simply [[Badass Normal|Bad Ass Normals]], but either way you see it, the women of Portal Breach do ''not'' [[Neutral Female|sit]] [[
* [[Adaptation Distillation]] - The only ''[[Twilight (
▲* [[Action Girl]] - ''Tons''. Some are considered [[Hot Amazon|Hot Amazons]], others are more [[Lady of War]] types, and some are simply [[Badass Normal|Bad Ass Normals]], but either way you see it, the women of Portal Breach do ''not'' [[Neutral Female|sit]] [[Distressed Damsel|around]] during a fight.
▲* [[Adaptation Distillation]] - The only ''[[Twilight (Literature)|Twilight]]'' character (god forbid we ever get more) on the site is Jake, who is indeed taken from ''Breaking Dawn'' but before [[Unfortunate Implications|imprinting on Bella's daughter]]. After Edward loaned him the Aston Martin (which he [[That Poor Car|crashed]]), he wound up on Portal Breach, which gave him the opportunity to put the past behind him and make a fresh, new start. He's surprisingly a very cool guy and makes for a great leg-warmer.
* [[Aesop Amnesia]] - Not every character acts in accordance to the trial they take to return to the land of the living after they're resurrected.
* [[Affably Evil]] - Evil Emperor Zurg, [[Kim Possible|Dr. Drakken]],[[Transformers Animated|Swindle]], among others.
Line 23:
* [[Big Damn Heroes]] - Unavoidable during plots, but a rather odd example was during the war ([[Halfway Plot Switch|war? what war?]]) on Gamma-O.
** The weirdest example is during the Halloween Plot: {{spoiler|Lenny the [[Cute Kitten|cat]] gave Glitch-X the finishing blow.}}
* [[Blessed
* [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]] - Very common, especially in the chatbox (usually when people are bored out of their minds).
* [[Catch Phrase]] - Although some canon characters do have catchphrases, they don't really use them on Portal Breach. But here are some of the most memorable examples.
Line 30:
* [[Crack Fic]] - In spades. Notable examples include the site's chatbox on a boring day, the "Dragonsmeets" thread that spawned the "demon smeets" (now known as "crack babies), and the "Oregon Trail" thread.
* [[Cross Player]] - A lot of players on Portal Breach play characters of the opposite sex (but it's when the guys have girl-exclusive characters that you should start worrying).
* [[Cursed
* [[Darker and Edgier]] - The whole world is like this for a few, though [[Lighter and Softer]] for others. Depends on how you look at it.
* [[Dark Is Not Evil]] - Hellboy, the [[Your Mileage May Vary|vampires]]... anyone who's ''supposed'' to be evil but has a heart of gold.
Line 39:
* [[Derailing Love Interests]] - During the course of his relationship with Aya, Marcus went from being a [[Noble Demon]] ''[[Our Demons Are Different|literally]]'' to a [[Clingy Jealous Girl|Clingy Jealous Guy]]. Other examples include Dani with Jana, and [[Terminator|T-800]] with Anna.
* [[Did Not Do the Research]] - Rare with the good players.
* [[Dropped a Bridge
* [[The Emperor]] - Zurg, naturally. He's also an [[Evil Overlord]] and a [[Big Bad]] (and currently the biggest [[Big Bad]] around), but has [[Pet the Dog|a softer side]] when it concerns [[She Is Not My Girlfriend|Jo]].
* [[Evil Laugh]] - Zurg, Dr. Drakken both have one.
* [[Evilly Affable]] - Dr. Doom is an example. Don't ask for a cup of sugar thinking you'll just get sugar.
* [[Expanded Universe]] - We have that too. It happens when you have [[Loads and Loads of Characters]].
* [[Fake Nationality]] - Seen a few times. Alex and the Sniper (both from [[
* [[Female Gaze]] - Somehow, it's only the WOMEN who notice the chest size of other female characters.
* [[Foe Yay]] - See [[Crack Pairing]] on the YMMV page.
* [[Forgotten Fallen Friend]] - Usually averted when a character [[Put
* [[For Science!]] - Numerous characters, such as the Garden. [[Sid
* [[Gadgeteer Genius]] - Jo, Ava, and Swindle.
* [[Grey and Gray Morality]] - The Majority of Portal Breach's citizens.
* [[Half
* [[Halfway Plot Switch]] - A very common occurrence when major plots happen. Common examples include the Gamma-O plot, the Halloween plot and (almost) the [[Hanna Is Not a
* [[Hammerspace]] - Swindle has transwarp space, and lets not forget the robot butler, Lawrence. And even resident vampire, OV, has a impressive one, always giving out the best meelee weapons.
* [[Hate Plague]] - The effect of [[Fables|Mr. Dark's]] influence , made the citizens of Portal Breach bring out their worst colors, more so seen in Vampires and other enities
Line 61:
* [[Insufferable Genius]] - [[Transformers|Starscream]] ''thinks'' he's a genius, but who's the leader of the Decepticons? Yeah, we thought so.
* [[It Got Worse]]
** The [[Hanna Is Not a
* [[Jerkass]] - Most of the Portals, especially [[Greed|Portal-G]] and [[Control Freak|Portal-O]].
* [[Jerk
* [[Karmic Tricksters]] - Bonkers in a sense-he's a cartoon cop, after all. Garden in a [[You Make Me Sic]] sort of way. Garden is also [[Playful Hacker|Chaotic]] [[True Neutral|Neutral]].
* [[Kick the Dog]] - [[Greed|Portal-G]] was ''made'' of this. {{spoiler|To start this off, Portal-G struck a deal with Portal-X to make weapons, on several conditions: One, he could choose his own warriors, who were basically made to be his slaves. Two, he could come to the chatbox whenever he wanted. Whenever he was there, he proceeded to hit people with his hammer, which had the power to [[Taken for Granite|turn people into GOLDEN STATUES]]. The only way to avoid being turned to gold was to [[Nightmare Fuel|CUT OFF THE LIMB HE HAD HIT]]. ''Ouch''. And if that wasn't enough, during the middle of the war with Portal-O, Portal-G was revealed to be a [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder|mole]] for Portal-O. [[It Got Worse|Then]], after Gamma-O was defeated and everyone was celebrating their victory in the chatbox, Portal-G [[Yank the
** [[Fables|Mr. Dark]] killing {{spoiler|Kev and Blade}}, through [[Fate Worse Than Death|decomposition]], without provocation from [[Innocent Bystander|EITHER]] [[Taken for Granite|ONE]].
* [[Leaning
* [[Like a Badass Out of Hell]] - It's not technically hell, BUT... Everyone who died in the recent Reformat plot. They got to come back whilst riding the goddess Omega as she rose from the depths of the Pool of Souls to challenge her counterpart.
* [[Mind Rape]] - Happened to Zurg.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]] - Only happens on occasion.
** A ''big'' one during the most recent Halloween Plot. {{spoiler|Glitch-X demanded that everyone tell him their [[Fatal Flaw|guilts]] and [[Nightmare Fuel|fears]]. They very reluctantly did. Turns out, admitting their fears and guilts freed Glitch-X from his chains and allowed him to attack everyone as he wished. [[Oh Crap|Woops.]]}}
* [[No Fourth Wall]] - The Fourth Wall in the chatbox got tired of being broken, so it [[Crowning Moment of Funny|ran away]].
Line 80:
* [[Our Demons Are Different]] - Hellboy, {{spoiler|Cailia}} and Prixlezub who's a ''car demon'', along with Iblis.
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]] - Even amongst themselves. Which causes some confusion.
* [[Pet the Dog]] - There are several examples available, but the most common one involves [[Cute Kitten|cats]]. No matter the [[Character Alignment]], most of the people on Portal Breach love cats. In fact, [[Even Evil Has Standards|abusing a cat]] is a sure-fire way to become [[The Scrappy]], as [[
* [[Physical God]] - Portal-X and most of the other deities, though he only pops in occasionally for shits and giggles or during plots.
* [[Plot Irrelevant Villain]] - Because there are so many people who call themselves villains when they don't really do anything evil (or if ''claim'' they do, it's always off-screen).
* [[The Pollyanna]] - A rare few, Kev, Jo ([[Dark and Troubled Past|usually]]), Swindle.
* [[Put
* [[Random Number God]] - Ours is so infamously and utterly sadistic that we've given it a name just so we can curse at it properly . . . Diceor hates EVERYONE.
* [[Read the Freaking Manual]] - Not surprisingly, some roleplayers just can't seem to understand simple instructions...
Line 90:
* [[Really Gets Around]] - Vampire Queen Lilith.
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]] - Zurg (254), Ava (201), [[Transformers Animated|Swindle]] (over 4.5 billion) and Washu (20,000/old as the universe), plus many more.
* [[Ridiculously
* [[Troubling Unchildlike Behavior]] - Jana swings between this and acting [[Stepford Smiler|like any friendly teenager]]. The trolls also apply-Sollux being the most ''normal''. [[Monster Clown|Gamzee is peaceful as long as he's high on slime]], [[Failure Hero|Karkat is a self-conscious wreck who covers shyness with rage]] and [[Child Soldier|Terezi has times where all she does]] [[The Hyena|is]] [[Stepford Smiler|laugh or be silent]] and refuses to [[I Did What I Had to Do|mention Vriska by name]]. (Incidentally, [[Karmic Death|Vriska got exactly what she deserved and that was the reason it stuck]].)
** Livewire, due to [[These Hands Have Killed|several]] [[Parental Abandonment|issues]], is in the middle of a [[Freak
* [[You Make Me Sic]] - Very commonly invoked by Buta, who's your regular [[Grammar Nazi]]. Others have also started to follow this trend.
* [[Zombie Apocalypse]] - A plot that took place around Christmas. [[Unexplained Recovery|Everyone got better]].
