Line 14:
* [[Protagonist Title Fallacy]]: Schlock is a major character, but if any one Tough is the star of the show it's Captain Tagon.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Tayler used to get emails calling for Para Ventura's death on a regular basis. She hasn't had much [[Character Development]] since then.
** The fact that she {{spoiler|might beis spying on the Toughs for the UNS}} may help with this, or make it even worse...
* [[Tear Jerker]]: [http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2010-12-12 The deaths of the microbes] here is strangely sad. Their utter incomprehension of their imminent demise...though obviously the googly eyes are mere poetic license.
** [http://www.schlockmercenary.com/2010-12-09 "Nope. Not done crying."]
* [[Villain Decay]]: The Partnership Collective went from manipulating planetary governments to nothing more than comic relief once the Toughs got the contract on them. The fact that the Gatekeepers stopped using them as proxies probably didn't help.
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: The UNS military do some horrific things, and quite a few of them are at least as sociopathic as Schlock but without being [[Heroic Sociopath|heroic]] or [[Comedic Sociopathy|humorous]] about it. Some, though, still seem to be trying to work for a greater good. Ruthless Admiral Emm tells a subordinate to "Take solace in the fact that you've saved more lives than you've lost."
* [[The Woobie]]: Mister Aliss, and Tailor is quickly earning this title for himself too.
** Although Tailor has become a lot more [[Badass]], especially when he teamed up with General Tagon. Para Ventura may count though: she seems to be the only character who gets distressed by killing.
