Super Robot Wars R/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Call Back]] (In Scenario 27 for ''Original Generation Gaiden'', Raul notes the environment is the same when they were attacked by Axel and Duminuss back in their world. ''Original Generation Gaiden'' reused the same map from ''Original Generations'')

* [[Chest Blaster]] (Excellence Lightning's Black Sun)

* [[Cool Sword]] (Excellence Lightning's Dimension Slasher)

* [[Leitmotif]] ("Over The Time Flow")

* [[Mecha Expansion Pack]], [[Swiss Army Weapon]] (Excellence's multiple frames)

* [[Multicolored Hair]] (Black-red hair)

* [[She Is Not My Girlfriend]] (His standard reaction whenever people try to ship him with Mizuho)

** [[Half-Identical Twins]] (Original Generation only)

* [[Temporal Paradox]], [[Time Travel]] (Reversal only; of note is he doesn't necessarily care that he might alter the future to be more of a [[Crapsack World|crapsack]] than before)

* [[Transforming Mecha]] (Excellence is basically this; in Original Generation, it can change frames on the fly, as opposed to Reversal, where it can only change during the intermission or docked with an allied battleship)

Her story starts out the same as Raul in ''Original Generations'', but after being thrown into the dimensional gate, Fiona vanishes and isn't seen again for an entire game. Come ''Original Generation Gaiden'', when the clash between the Compatible Kaiser's Overgate Engine and the G Thundergate opens up a wormhole, out pops Fiona, starving and still injured from taking the attack meant for Raul by Duminuss. Thanks to the interference of {{spoiler|Axel and [[Super Robot Wars Compact 2/Characters|Einst Alfimi]]}}, Raul hauls her for medical attention aboard the Kurogane. After being caught up with the fact she'sin an [[Alternate Dimension]] and learning Raji and Mizuho are kidnapped by Duminuss, Fiona takes to the battlefield to assault Duminuss and continue to be at her brother's side. With Duminuss defeated, Fiona dismantles her Excellence, agreeing the Time Flow Engine is still yet an unstable piece of technology, and opens the "L&E Corporation" (named by her after the Lightning and Eternal frames) with Raul as another test pilot for Mizuho, although Dr. Marion Radom states she wants to build something for Fiona that's better than the Excellence.

She starts with the same Excellence machine like Raul, however her final upgrade is the much more feminime Excellence "Eternal". Fiona embodies these tropes (some of them are shared with Raul, though):

* [[Crucified Hero Shot]] (Excellence Eternal's Final Grand Cross)

** Technically subverted, because she doesn't do this pose while doing her [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: she pulls it out after surviving all those hijinx with the Eternal frame. A case can also be made that the Final Grand Cross is a [[Shout-Out]] to [[Detonator Orgun]]'s Grand Cross attack)

** [[Half-Identical Twins]] (Original Generation only)

* [[Heroic Sacrifice]] (Original Generation only; subverted later due to [[Trailers Always Spoil]] (see [[He's Just Hiding|She's Just Hiding]])

* [[Improbable Weapon User]] (In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', she gets praised by Marion for using the Eternal's energy emitters as blades)

* [[Leitmotif]] ("Over The World Wall")

* [[Not So Different]] (Heroic variation: the way Marion approaches Fiona feels as if Marion was like Fiona when she was younger. Still, how a Fiona-like Marion (if true) could grow into the current Marion players know better...yeah, [[You Do NOT Want to Know|might be better left unanswered]])

* [[He's Just Hiding|She's Just Hiding]] (Back in ''Original Generations'', she already goes on to deliver some sort of "farewell" death speech to the team, making it more apparent she may bite the dust (''moreso'' than {{spoiler|[[Super Robot Wars Advance/Characters|Lamia Loveless]]}}). It takes one [[Trailers Always Spoil|trailer]] for ''Original Generation Gaiden'' to ruin all the suspense, hence the lack of spoilers)

** [[Stuffed Into the Fridge]] (Ultimately subverted, due to the trailer)

* [[The Tease]] (Not as much as [[Super Robot Wars Compact 2/Characters|Excellen Browning]], but she mercilessly teases her "Onii-chan~")

* [[Wangst]] (Her Reversal counterpart usually had her [[Wangst]] about how she thinks she's a hindrance to Raji's research)

* [[Ascended Extra]] (Promoted from a non-playable side-character in Reversal to a sub-pilot in Original Generation)

* [[Heroic Second Wind]] (''In a way'': basically, when Duminuss appears for the near-last time in Reversal, it's really joyous that not even the Round Knights can stop it from getting what it wants. Suddenly, Raji makes his "malfunction" on the second Time Flow Engine work, Duminuss gets horribly wounded and the tables are turned to the Round Knights' favor)

* [[Otaku]], [[No Fourth Wall]] (In one intermission save dialogue, he tries to ''disassemble your [[PlayStation 2]]'' just to understand how the energy source is!)

* [[Ascended Extra]] (Like Raji, Mizuho rises from side-character status in Reversal to Fiona's sub-pilot in Original Generation)

* [[Dead Little Sister|Dead Parents]] (Her parents were killed in a fire since available rescue equipment were unable to withstand the intense heat. She joins the Excellence team since the project's initial goal is to create the ultimate rescue mecha)

* [[She Is Not My Girlfriend|He Is Not My Boyfriend]] (Her reaction with Raul)

* [[Wrench Wench]] (May double as [[The Blacksmith]], having crafted the [[Mecha Expansion Pack|Mecha Expansion Packs]] for the Excellence)

* [[Anti-Villain]] [[Big Bad]] (Reversal version; many REALLY got too touched with the kids' [[Tear Jerker|heart-wrenching]] sacrifice to the point one has to wonder "THIS is the ''[[Big Bad]]'' of the game?". Some players went to the extremes and were unable to finish the game because they just can't bear to see the heart-wrenching sacrifice go in vain)

* [[Back From the Dead]], [[Came Back Wrong]] (It'd use these as a mean to antagonize your team, by reviving two supposedly dead characters. In Original Generation, it's {{spoiler|Lamia}} (though more of a case of salvaging a [[Not Quite Dead]] person); in Reversal, it's '''{{spoiler|[[G Gundam|Master Asia]]}}''')

* [[Breather Boss]] (In ''Original Generation Gaiden'', compared to [[Super Robot Wars Compact 3|Shura King Alkaid Nassh]] in the previous scenario and the upcoming {{spoiler|[[Final Boss|Dark Brain]]}}, Duminuss is pathetically easy)

* [[Evil Matriarch]] (Apparently this is what it is, if you think it's a "she". It doesn't help that Duminuss has a [[Cross Dressing Voice]])

* [[More Than Mind Control]] (More or less: in ''Original Generation Gaiden'', it resorts to this to control {{spoiler|Lamia}} since apparently normal reprogramming isn't enough. {{spoiler|Yet, it missed [[Chekhov's Gun|one tiny black box which ends up enabling her to recover]]}})

* [[One-Winged Angel]] (TWO moments of this in Reversal)

* [[Smug Snake]] (Original Generation only: working with fellow [[Smug Snake]] [[Super Robot Wars Compact 3|Mizal Touval]] cements it as this)

* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]] (Apparently, {{spoiler|Dark Brain}} refers to it as "Dynamis 3". Could also be Banpresto's way of saying "Sorry, we should've named it "Dynamis" instead of "Duminuss"!)

The pink-haired homunculus of Duminuss, the leader between the team. Impulsive and hot-headed for a loli, and apparently [[Pettanko|super sensitive about her boobs]] (in fact, her wish if she ever gets revivied is to get a body with large breasts). In Reversal, she makes contact with [[Zambot 3|the Gaizock Empire]]; in Original Generation, she handles the Chimera or the Space Flounder monsters, as well ensuring the G Thundergate is still in their possession.

* [[Cute Bruiser]] (Moreso than the rest of her allies. In Reversal, she and her homunculus siblings fought the [[G Gundam|Shuffle Alliance]] ''to a standstill''...in '''unarmed combat''')

* [[Draco in Leather Pants]] (Despite being outright cruel, her [[Moe]] look keeps enough of a fanbase)

* [[Enfant Terrible]] (Unlike the other homunculi, Tiz is pretty mean)

* [[Fastball Special]] (One of the Durgatel's attacks is essentially having its towering golem-like machine [[Spell My Name with an "S"|Pater]] throwing it at the enemy)

* [[Huge Guy, Tiny Girl]] (Durgatel's partnered with the much larger Pater, used in most of its attacks)

* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]] (Is it Tis or Tiz?)

* {{spoiler|[[Heel Face Turn]]}} (Original Generation only)

* [[Little Miss Badass]] (Don't let her demure self fool you; she's just about as good as she gets in battle)

* [[Moe]] (''Oh so much'')

* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]] (Apparently, her other name-spelling is "Despoiniz")

* [[Demoted to Extra]] ([[Memetic Mutation|Yes, we know, Laliar...and we're sorry]])

* [[Knight in Shining Armor]] (Always acts like this toward his homunculi siblings. It isn't unusual for him to hold off the heroes so Tis and Despinis can escape)

* [[The One Guy]], [[Dropped a Bridget On Him]] (Yes, Laliar is a BOY, folks)

* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]] (Is it Ralia, Lalia or Laliar?)

* [[Swords Akimbo]], [[Blade on a Stick]] (Hypocrisis sports four arms, all of them holding a sword each during one attack. Hypocrisis also wields several spears as its armament)
