Line 371:
* Ayla and Kino from ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'' do this consistently. Granted, it's because they're in the year 65,000,000 BC....
* Dampierre from ''[[Soul Calibur]]: Broken Destiny'' uses a variation: instead of using his real name, he'll use "Le Bello" instead of "me" or "my".
* Dr. Suchong does this all the way through his audio logs in ''[[
{{quote|"Suchong is inclined to listen."}}
* ''[[System Shock]]'': SHODAN averts it hard: she only speaks in the third person at the very start of the first game, when she's ''good''. Unfortunately, "I" begets "[[A God Am I]]". The opening monologue is very well done; it's a bland computer voice narrating the events that led up to the start of the game, and it's only when the speaker shifts from third to first person that you realise it's SHODAN describing her own ascension to malevolent sentience:
Line 448:
** ''[[Beast Machines]]'' has Tankor, though {{spoiler|it's all an act after he gains access to Rhinox's intellect.}}
** Wasp of ''[[Transformers Animated]]'' ({{spoiler|who doesn't get the "-inator" part until he's actually turned into a technorganic wasp Transformer}}) is a somewhat more tragic version, speaking normally at first but winding up sounding much like Waspinator after being driven mad by a lot of [[Break the Cutie|Break The]] [[Jerkass|Not So Cutie]] that ''isn't'' played for humor as it was with Waspinator. (He's a jerk, but not enough of one to deserve what happened to him.)
** Me, Grimlock, play with this trope! Me, Grimlock, include name in sentence, but also say "me" which is first person pronoun! In some versions me Grimlock stupid, but sometimes me speech proze... me ''talk box thingy'' just broken. Even in the [[Transformers: Shattered Glass|evil universe]], I, Grimlock, who is gifted with remarkable intelligence, still speak with such linguistic idiosyncrasies. Mustn't complain to much now, wot?
** Then there's Soundwave and, to an extent, Wheelie.
** And the rest of the Dinobots.
Line 499:
* When [[The Flash]] and [[Lex Luthor]] end up [[Freaky Friday Flip|switching bodies]] in ''[[Justice League (animation)|Justice League]]'', Flash-In-Lex's-Body (FiLB) speaks about "I, Lex Luthor" quite a bit... of course, this is mostly [[Rule of Funny|played for laughs]]... and it ''[[Crowning Moment of Funny|works]]''!
{{quote|''[[That Makes Me Feel Angry|Lex Luthor is pleased!]]''}}
* [[Our Goblins Are
* Oberon in ''[[Gargoyles]]'' doesn't ''always'' refer to himself in the third person, but if he's angry or making a dramatic pronouncement (both fairly frequent conditions for him) he's liable to slip into it. "Oberon does not ''compromise'' -- Oberon ''commands''!"
* Lemme tell you something, TV Tropes! Not mentioning Rath from ''[[Ben 10: Ultimate Alien|Ben 10 Ultimate Alien]]'' makes Rath Really angry!!
