** [[The Gunslinger|A gun]]. A [[Chekhov's Gun|Russian]] [[Revolvers Are Just Better|revolver]], to be specific.<ref>A [[wikipedia:Nagant M1895|Nagant M1895]] to be ''[[Gun Porn|very]]'' [[Shown Their Work|specific]].</ref>
*** She alternates between [[Improbable Aiming Skills]] and [[More Dakka]].
** A [[The Kid Withwith the Remote Control|television remote control.]]
** A [[Video Games|video game system]], specifically a [[Game Boy Advance]].
** [[Too Many Belts|More belts.]] Which also happen to be [[Wick|Wicks]].
Line 30:
* As drawn, her shirt [[Bare Your Midriff|reveals her navel]]. She may, at her leisure, [[Contemplate Our Navels|contemplate it.]]
* Wears [[Bring My Brown Pants|brown pants]], but [[Suspiciously Specific Denial|swears it's because they were the cheapest thing on the rack]]. [[Lovable Coward|Riiiight.]]
** Not to mention that her pockets are [[Bigger Onon the Inside]] and can hold infinite [[Hammerspace]].
* Has really [[Nice Shoes|nice shoes]]. They function as her "[[Tricked-Out Shoes|other utility]]" that allows her to [[Grind Boots|grind exceptionally well]], [[Super Speed|run at mach 1000]], make long distance [[Shoe Phone|phone calls]], are [[Smoldering Shoes|completely flame retardant]], but mainly [[Shoe Slap|used for slapping her enemies with]]. Oh [[Swiss Army Weapon|and they allow her to fly]].
** When she's not wearing her nice shoes, [[Foot Focus|she makes sure we know about it]].
* Engaged in her life's work, [[Lampshade Hanging|pointing things out]].
* Is a [[Pettanko]], but suffers from [[A -Cup Angst]] because she's been led to think [[Buxom Is Better]].
* Is [[So Cool Its Awesome|So Cool She's Awesome]].<ref>[[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|What do you mean, she's not?]]</ref>
** As a meta example, [[Curtains Match the Window|her color scheme was also the inspiration for the logo]][[media:SoCoolItsAwesome_5604.jpg|SoCoolItsAwesome_5604.jpg]].
Line 40:
* She may be [[Bi the Way|Bisexual]], or [[No Bisexuals|not]].
* Is a [[Cute Witch]], but make no mistake, she's a [[Cute Bruiser]] as well, and all-around [[Little Miss Badass]].
* [[Deadpan Snarker|She may seem sarcastic at times]], [[Hidden Depths|but if you get to know her]], you'll find she is a [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]].
 
Other details:
* Also, [[Will They or Won't They?|may or may not]] have a [[Slap Slap Kiss]] romance with that [[Affably Evil|devilish yet sincere]] fellow known as [[Television Without Pity|Tubeelzebub]]...
* We think [[User:The Advertisement Server]] doesn't like her, or at the very least, thinks [[Unnecessary Makeover|she needs to clean her teeth, go to a tanning salon, change her hair and/or use some wrinkle cream]]. He has also called her a Virgin (Records), which she denies. In fairness, it would [[Virgin Power|explain the source of all her power.]]
** However, right now he is asking her to [[media:police_trope_tan_6760.jpg|wear a sexy police outfit]]. The beginning of a [[Boy Meets Girl|love story]] between [[Trope Tan-tan]] and [[User:The Advertisement Server]], or is he simply inadvertently broadcasting his [[Fetish|filthy]] [[Fan Service|filthy]] [[Custom Uniform of Sexy|fantasies]]?
* Is not a [[Bomb Throwing Anarchist|bomb-thrower]] despite the [[AATAFOVS]] badge, but [[Cool People Rebel Against Authority|does show a disdain for authority]]. She believes that the [[Authority Equals Asskicking|justification for all authority]] [[Asskicking Equals Authority|is rooted in the use of force]]. Her preferred politics are oriented more towards [[Enigmatic Empowering Entity|watery tarts]] [[It May Help You Onon Your Quest|dispensing]] [[Amulet of Concentrated Awesome|sacred relics]]. This naturally limits her choices in the voting booth, forcing her to [[Take a Third Option]] every time.
* Her [[The Mentor|mentor]] was [[Crystal Dragon Jesus]] ([[The Obi-Wan|until he made a]] [[Heroic Sacrifice]]) and [[Mentor Occupational Hazard|died]]. He did [[Go Out with a Smile]] in an [[Obi-Wan Moment]], however.
** He [[Unexplained Recovery|got better]], and went on to his own story arc.
* Recently discovered to have some sisters, [[Separated Atat Birth]]. [[Mysterious Waif-tan]] is one. [[Black Magician Girl-tan]] is another.
** One of her sisters also seems to be the [[Annoying Laugh|laughable]] [[Cute Bruiser-tan]].
* Some people say that she's probably Sailor Trope, too. Everything's a sailor nowadays.
Line 56:
** Her transformation [[Clothing Damage|has her clothes melt away]], then Trope-tan is enveloped with film reels. An explosion of text reveals her costume.
* Has also been heard rehearsing [[Badass Boast|a little speech]] as a [[Pre-Ass-Kicking One-Liner]].
{{quote| ''"Unforgiveable! Agent of [[Buffy-Speak|unnotability]] and [[Wiki Magic]], pretty [[Rummage Sale Reject]] in a [[Limited Wardrobe]], Sailor [[Trope-tan]]! [[In the Name of Thethe Moon|In the name of This Troper]], I will [[Justifying Edit|justifyingly edit]] you!"''}}
* [[The Conscience|Her conscience]] has [[Good Angel, Bad Angel|two sides]]: [[Darth Wiki|Darth-tan]] and [[Sugar Wiki|Sugarplum-tan]]. It's arguable that she has [[Blue and Orange Morality|a third side]] but the rumor has yet to be confirmed. See below for details.
* She is [[Tropes Are Not Bad|not bad]], but [[Tropes Are Not Good|not entirely good]] either. She may or may not have a [[Super-Powered Evil Side]] named Gigatrope-tan, AKA [[The Wiki Witch of the Web|the Wiki Witch of the Web]]. Those who say she does have [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|lost their minds]] to [[The Tetris Effect|the Wiki Effect]] and [[Go Mad From the Revelation|can no longer think straight]].
* Is both [[Older Than They Think]] and [[Newer Than They Think]]. Something about [[Timey-Wimey Ball|wibbily-wobbily, or somesuch.]]
* She also has a [[Fridge Logic|fridge that's somehow]] [[Reality Warper|able to warp reality itself,]] [[Acceptable Breaks From Reality|not that it's a Bad Thing.]] [[Fridge Brilliance|In fact, it's brilliant.]]

=== ''[[Magical Girl]] [[Moe Anthropomorphism|Anthropomorphic]] Trope-tan'' by [[Tropers/Koveras|Koveras]] ===
 
[[In a World]] where [[Real Life|reality]] and fiction exist [[Alternate Universe|side by side]], [[Ordinary High School Student]] Trope-tan [[Falling Into the Cockpit|falls into possession]] of a powerful [[Artifact of Doom|artifact]] on her [[Dangerous Sixteenth Birthday|sixteenth birthday]]: a [[Magic Wand|magical staff]] named [[There Is No Such Thing Asas Notability|Tinstan]] that allows her to [[Wiki Magic|bring lost or obscure tropes back to life in full glory]]. Determined to [[The Messiah|do good]] [[Walking the Earth|to the world]], she starts on a path of [[Wiki Magic|Wiki Magician]], [[YKTTW|searching for]] and improving such tropes. Things get difficult when the [[Dark Magical Girl]] Wikipe-tan ([[Elegant Gothic Lolita]] attire included) is sent by her [[Evil Matriarch|evil mother]] Wiki[[Classical Mythology|medea]] to Trope-tan's world to search and destroy all in-universe [[Elemental Powers|Elements of Fiction]], armed with such devastating spells as NPOV, Citation Needed, and Speedy Deletion ([[Calling Your Attacks|called out]] in [[Gratuitous English]]). And it all gets ''really'' complicated when a [[Cool Ship]] from TVTI shows up. [[Home Page|TVTI]] is an interuniversal organization of "tropers" who strive to achieve [[Balance Between Good and Evil|balance]] and integrity among the tropes before they [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|ruin all life in the multiverse]]. This balance is now [[Apocalypse How|about to crumble]] thanks to Trope-tan's indiscriminate resurrection, Wikipe-tan's indiscriminate deletion, and the epic [[Edit War]] between them. The tropers also have a secret agenda to [[Slash Fic|slash]] and [[Shipping|ship]] [[Foe Yay|Trope-tan/Wikipe-tan]] in every manner possible, so [[Unresolved Sexual Tension|tensions]] between them are beginning to rise...
 
=== ''Trope-tan and the [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad|Stealer of the Spotlight]]'' by [[Tropers/Peteman|Peteman]] ===
 
[[It Was a Dark And Stormy Night|It was a Dark Andand Stormy Night]]. Trope-tan stood over the broken body of Firefox-Tan, [[Character Derailment|cackling triumphantly over her victim]]. Wikipe-Tan stood there in [[Draco in Leather Pants|her leather pants]], growling, [[There Is No Such Thing Asas Notability|"This is what happens where the is no notability!]] [[Alternate Character Interpretation|Editors run amok and there is nothing to stop them]]" But Trope-tan walked over, and [[Standard Female Grab Area|grabbed her arm]], and all Wikipe-Tan could do was scream "[[Badass Decay|LET ME GO! LET ME GO!!]]" as [[Chickification|she broke down crying.]] Trope-tan threw her to the ground, then [[Kick the Dog|kicked her unconscious]] [[Down the Drain|down a manhole]] into the [[Absurdly Spacious Sewer]].
 
Firefox-Tan picked herself off the ground. She needed to stop Trope-tan, so she shouted "[[In the Name of Thethe Moon|In the Name of]] [[Did Not Do the Research|Google, I will use my Search Engine powers to defeat you!"]] at which point, she summoned her [[They Just Didn't Care|frost powers]] to blast Trope-tan... She fired her giant ultimate unstoppable [[Beam Spam|multi-blast frost beam attack]]... but Trope-tan [[The Worf Barrage|deflected it easily]]. Trope-tan skated toward Firefox-Tan, saying "[[Evil Gloating|Foolish girl! You could not hope to defeat me..."]]
 
That's when [[Steven Ulysses Perhero|Ulysses Tristan Steven]] [[Sdrawkcab Name|Ytram]] appeared out of nowhere, yelling "Have no fear citizen! [[Marty Stu|U.T.S. Ytram]] is here!"
Line 156:
Gasping, she realized that whatever just happened, [[It Was All Just a Dream|it wasn't real]]. She took a few calming breaths.
 
Meanwhile, [[Stalker Withwith a Crush|watching on his telescope]], Ulysses Tristan Steven Ytram smiled as the girl went back to sleep, "Soon my dear... very soon..."
 
=== ''Trope-tan and the [[Start of Darkness]]'' by [[Tropers/Vifetoile|Vifetoile]] ===
Line 164:
She fingered the ring on the chain around her neck for a minute, [[Expospeak|before resuming her story]].
 
"Wikipe-Tan and I [[Rival Turned Evil|were the best of friends, even if we were rivals...]] but when the time came to grant us the true status of [[Dark Magical Girl|Dark Magician Girls]], Wikimedea ''[[Broken Pedestal|scorned]]'' me. She said that my [[There Is No Such Thing Asas Notability|complete lack of notability]] and my [[Lampshade Hanging|irrepressible urge to hang lampshades]] meant I could never be a force to reckon with Wikipe-Tan in my wildest dreams. She said I had [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?|too much heart!]]" Trope-tan grit her [[Cute Little Fangs]] together, [[Mismatched Eyes|her one ruby eye and one emerald eye glaring.]] "I thought Wikipe-Tan might at least stand up to her [[My Beloved Smother|mother]] - but [[And Man Grew Proud|she'd grown proud.]] She turned her back on me. And since that day," Trope-tan gripped the [[BFS|Big Frickin' Quill]] again, "[[The Only One Allowed to Defeat You|I am the only one allowed to defeat her!]]"
 
Trope-tan was startled by the sound of a clap. A slow clap, [[Sarcastic Clapping|slow and sarcastic]]. She turned. A [[Tall, Dark and Snarky]] fellow, who seemed another [[Ordinary High School Student]], was standing there, wearing a black shirt with the NBC peacock on it. "Incredible. Unbelievable. I don't think I've ever seen a [[Expospeak|less subtle insertion of plot exposition.]] Well done. I think my ears are ringing with the clanging of the metaphorical [[Anvilicious|anvils]]."
Line 172:
"And where is that dog now?" He asked.
 
"She's..." Trope-tan looked around, but Tropey had left her feet. Instead Tropey was at the feet of the man, who was more roguishly handsome the more Trope-tan looked at him. Tropey kept [[Licked Byby the Dog|licking the man on the hand affectionately.]]
 
"Believe this is yours." He [[Pet the Dog]] curtly and sent her back to Trope-tan. He turned and walked away.
Line 178:
"But wait! Who are you?" Trope-tan called after him.
 
"I'll just be around whenever your ego needs a deflation. [[Television Without Pity|Spare the snark, spoil the MoeMoe]]..." He disappeared into the shadows, leaving Trope-tan and Tropey alone in the night, which was promising to be [[It Was a Dark Andand Stormy Night|dark and stormy.]]

=== ''Trope-tan and the Ordo Tropus'' by [[Tropers/Jamaican Castle|Jamaican Castle]] ===
 
In the [[Warhammer 40 K40000|grim]] [[Grimdark|dark]] [[Bad Future|future]]... there is a woman. This woman [[Genre Savvy|knows how the universe works]]. Clad in hardened steel and salvaged armor, for these are the signs of her time, she strides out to defend the last bastions of Humanity and the great Imperium. Locked behind her [[Lampshade-Wearing|lampshade helmet]], it is said she fears no foe, and needs not see them, for she knows the very heart of [[Our Elves Are Better|Eldar]] and [[Flat Earth Atheist|Tau]], [[Blood Knight|Ork]] and [[Horde of Alien Locusts|Tyrannid]], [[Implacable Man|Necron]] and [[The Corruption|Chaos]] - even [[Humans Are Bastards|Man]] himself. You shall know her by her signs: the [[Avatar and The Airbending Fellowship of Vampire Slayers|sigil]] of her creed, the [[Chainsaw Good|chain]]-[[Rule of Cool|quill]], the blue and orange livery of her Ordo Tropus. Pray to the Emperor that she come in your time of need, for her knowledge [[Dangerously Genre Savvy|turns the tide of battles]], and without it you will be forced to [[Genre Blindness|stumble blindly in the dark]]. None know the source of this woman, or her knowledge, or her order - except the mysterious one herself.
