* VillainHasAPoint: In "Son, Show Me Your Grades", Father points out that part of the reason why he's so trigger-happy to kill his son at any given point is because his other ways of disciplining Son (such as forcing him to clean up his mess, or grounding him) never actually work because Son refuses to change his behavior.



* TookALevelInDumbass: He started out as more of a beleaguered everyman struggling to keep up with his father's reality-violating insanity but over time became just as incapable of actually functioning in society as his father. For reference, "Son, I Have New Powers" has him pretending to struggle with answering "2+2" to prove that his father was an idiot, while in "Son, What's A Redditor?", Son ''actually'' struggles to answer the same math problem.

In "Son, Show Me Your Grades", it's revealed that Son has been perpetually stuck in the 1st grade for ''centuries'' because of his idiocy.

* ResurrectiveImmortality: Considering how often they've died only to show back up completely fine sometimes just moments later, they definitely have this.

* AbusiveParents: He's killed his son repeatedly often over incredibly trivial things, for starters.



* ResurrectiveImmortality: Just like Son, Father always comes back to life whenever he's killed.

[[folder:Uncle]]
The brother of Father, Uncle makes his debut appearance in "Father, Where Is Uncle?".
----
* BerserkButton: Harming cats. If Uncle believes that any cat has been hurt by someone, he will utterly annihilate the attacker in question. Son showing him an anime catgirl is enough to motivate Uncle to go on a ''worldwide killing spree''.
* FlashStep: Like the other members of the Bread Boys family, he can do this. However, Uncle takes the cake in that he's able to one-up Father in this regard.
* IntrovertedCatPerson: Uncle doesn't seem to like the rest of his family very much, but he's always there to stare at and/or pet a cat if it's nearby.
* TheQuietOne: Of all the members of the Bread Boys family, Uncle is easily the quietest of the bunch. The most he's spoken is when he first introduced himself to Son, and when he acknowledges the existence of a cat.
* SiblingRivalry: Though they initially seem to be civil with one another when Uncle returns from the Crusades, Father and Uncle quickly come to blows with each other, particularly regarding Uncle's odd behavior.
* TheUnfavorite: According to Father, Uncle and Father's Father don't get along very well. True to form, the two immediately draw their weapons at each other when Son sets up an impromptu family dinner.

* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Early videos had Father act much more [[TranquilFury subdued]] when punishing his son, and he generally had a semi-good reason for doing so (even if it still careened into especially when compared to DisproportionateRetribution territory). Later videos have Father scream in his NoIndoorVoiceNoIndoorVoice constantly and punishing Son for even the most minor of infractions.

* MagicKnight: Everyone in the Bread Boys family is this, combining physical combat and weapon training with things like immortality (via both [[TheAgeless agelessness]] and [[ResurrectiveImmortality a refusal to stay dead]]) and the ability to FlashStep, among other things. What makes them just this, rather than ThePaladin (considering they get their powers from God), is that they're much too [[BigScrewedUpFamily dysfunctional]] and [[BloodKnight overzealous]] to truly be the latter archetype.
* MissingMom: It is unknown where Son's mother is or what happened to her. When Son tries to ask Father about it, he only gets a vague response about how she "took everything".


Added DiffLines:

* DisproportionateRetribution: If Son ever does anything to anger or minorly inconvenience Father, the latter is usually quick to bring out the shotgun.

[[folder:Son]]
The main character of the channel, Chadicus (though otherwise known as Son) is the one uploading the videos to [=YouTube=], as a way of documenting his father's insanity and abuse towards him.
----
* BigNo: Tends to scream this right as Father or one of his other relatives is about to kill him.
* CartwrightCurse: If Son somehow manages to go steady with a girl, Father is guaranteed to ruin things between them. [[MurderIsTheBestSolution Usually by killing one or both of them.]]
* TheChewToy: Almost nothing ever goes right for Son, whether he's trying to introduce Father to new things, relax on his own, or commit heresy without Father finding out.
* EveryoneHasStandards:
** Despite their mutual love of anime, Son can't stand Cousin Richard, and is hostile to him whenever he encounters him.
** Son is ''immediately'' disgusted when Father accidentally orders a furry, and quickly works with him to burn it to death.
** As irresponsible as Son is most of the time, he's utterly horrified when Father burns the cash he was intending to use to pay the IntimidatingRevenueService.

!The Bread Boys Family

[[folder:In general]]
* BigScrewedUpFamily
* NoIndoorVoice: Father and Son are almost never capable of speaking to each other in a quiet tone of voice. Averted with the rest of the family though, who rarely speak much, if at all.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: The family has existed since the Crusades, but look to be much younger due to the way their powers have caused them to become TheAgeless.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Father]]
The deuteragonist of the series, Father is Chadicus's deranged and homicidal dad, who tends to kill his son whenever he is upset by his antics.
----
* ArchnemesisDad: Serves as this for Son for most of the videos on the channel.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Early videos had Father act much more [[TranquilFury subdued]] when punishing his son, especially when compared to his NoIndoorVoice
* GunNut: Father almost always has a shotgun with him, which he is quick to use on Son whenever he does something wrong.
* HairTriggerTemper: Father tends to quickly fly into a rage at anything and ''everything'' that exists. He even lampshades it to Son, pointing out that almost every new thing he introduces him to tends to go wrong in some fashion.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: In the rare moments where Father decides ''not'' to kill Chadicus, it's usually because he's too disappointed to properly punish him.
* OffingTheOffspring: Father practically turns the trope into an ''art form''. Nearly every video on the Bread Boys channel is dedicated to killing his son in various ways.
* ResurrectiveImmortality: Just like Son, Father always comes back to life whenever he's killed.
* UnstoppableRage: Once Son has angered Father in some way, there is ''no'' way to stop him until the former is dead.
