=== Associated Tropes: ===

=== Tuckerisms (Associated Tropes): ===

* [[Ambiguously Brown]] Maybe... There's debate about him being black or not. We've never actually seen his skin, much less his face, so there's no way of fully confirming it.

* [[A Man Is Not a Virgin]]: According to him, he really isn't anymore, courtesy of Sister, but this is [[Unreliable Narrator|Tucker we're talking about.]]

** But then again, it's ''[[Really Gets Around|Sister]]'' '''[[Lovable Sex Maniac|he's]]''' talking about.

Line 283:

* [[Calling Your Attacks]]: When using his sword in ''Revelation'', he calls out his "swishes" and his "stabs". {{spoiler|Doesn't work with Tex, ''does'' work when he stabs the Meta.}}

* [[Casanova Wannabe]]: His onscreen success rate with women is very low, though not for lack of effort.

* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]] He wasn't much of a soldier at the start (none of them were, to be honest), but by the later seasons, he becomes one of the best fighters of the original Reds and Blues.

* [[Double Entendre]]: He's made of these.

** [[Don't Explain the Joke|Which he always follows with]] [[Catch Phrase|"Bow-Chicka-Bow-Wow!"]]

Line 294:

Line 296:

* [[Thou Shalt Not Kill]]: Tucker claims to be a pacifist during his quest, even outright stating he didn't want to kill a monster. {{spoiler|This doesn't, however, stop him from killing Wyoming and attacking Tex and Meta with potentially lethal strikes.}}

* [[Token Minority]]: After revealing his first name to be Lavernius, he's asked by Church if he's black. [[Fanon]] picked up on this, with a lot of fan art making Tucker a black guy when out of his armor.

** He does answer yes when Church asks him if he's black.

* [[Took a Level in Badass]]: Before the reintroduction of Tex, he was the most badass member of the series. As said above, he remains the most badass non-Freelancer.

** He stabs {{spoiler|The Meta}} with his sword in close combat. The Meta, of course, is powerful enough to fight Tex one on one ''without'' any AI support, and yet Tucker still manages to land a solid hit on him. (Although, in fairness, the Meta had taken quite a few hits by that point. Still impressive.)
