Ambiguous Disorder has been renamed and now belongs in YMMV.


* AmbiguousDisorder: While most other RUC members are delusional, Popeyes is on another level. He lives in his own reality and no amount of people, even his own friends or allies can break him out of it. This results in Popeye [[spoiler: Popeye killing Alf who was wearing a literal [[PaperThinDisguise paper thin disguise of Soviet Steve]]]] and [[spoiler:Burying Jafar alive when Mike knocked him to the ground while Jafar was begging he was alive.]]
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
Does Not Like Shoes has been renamed and redefined to focus on characters that explicitly or implicitly state a preference for going barefoot. Removing misuse


* DoesNotLikeShoes: Quite literally. He gets pissed off if shoes are mentioned near him for whatever reason.

to:

!! Jafar
[[quoteright:176:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jafar.PNG]]

The RUC's strategist as well as one of Popeye's oldest friends. He was one of the founding members of the Radioactive Uber Clan, recruited to go after the man named "Mr. Jap". Ever since, he has given his assistance to the clan as a strategist.

!!Tropes

* AdaptationalWimp: In the original [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} Aladdin]] movie, he was a ManipulativeBastard who actually put up before he ultimately became a Genie himself. This Jafar? He probably has the biggest case of RUC induced deviation yet. He doesn't [[NonActionGuy directly fight against the Resistance]] and instead orders others to do it for him, runs at the first sight of defeat, and [[spoiler: Got his shit beat out of him from an enraged Mike.]]
* BuriedAlive: [[spoiler: How he died, courtesy of Popeye who believed he was dead.]]
* DirtyCoward: He refuses to fight directly and runs away when things aren't going his way. [[spoiler: Hell, he cowards in fear while Mike kicks his ass.]]
* NightmareFetishist: Has a weird fascination for [[RunningGag wanting to rip out Bern's spine to use as a cure.]] ([[Franchise/MortalKombat Fatality!]])

to:

!! Jabberjaw
[[quoteright:183:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/jabberjaw_6.PNG]]

The RUC's own "Historian". He is supposedly one of the younger members of the group, coming after Felix and Albert were recruited after he was attacked by a "masked demon"([[spoiler: Really just a dentist trying to clean his teeth.]]). He is in charge of all the historical info of the Radioactive Uber Clan as well as spread propaganda around. He is the main antagonist in Glack's scenario.

!!Tropes

* BlatantLies: When his work consists of a perfectly normal person being claimed they're some shapeshifting, cannibalistic, rapist demon who eats babies and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking has bad breath]] you know you fall under this trope.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Quite literally. He gets pissed off if shoes are mentioned near him for whatever reason.
* FlunkyBoss: The final battle in Glacks scenario has you go against two of the Street Sharks against him.
* MaliciousSlander: His main shtick in quite literally demonizing anyone who is against the RUC to the point of dehumanization.
* SmallNameBigEgo: He has the biggest ego out of all of the RUC, which is saying a lot.

to:

!! Felix the Cat
[[quoteright:187:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/felix.PNG]]

The RUCs personal "Assassin". He is a small, loudmouth cat that ended up joining the Radioactive Uber Clan after killing [[Film/ErnestPWorrell "Ernest P Worell"]](The guy really wasn't Jim Varney) in front of Popeye after running away from his home due to him killing his owner. He is the main antagonist of Steve's scenario, allying himself with the likes of Garfield and Ruben's Nuts to try and kill Steve once and for all. Despite this, he has proven time and again that he is not a good assassin at all.

!!Tropes

* ArchEnemy: To Soviet Steve and to an extent, Ambush Bug, believing the latter ran him over with a train.
* AssassinOutclassin: He's considered the RUC's personal assassin but every attempt of his assassinations end either with him blurting out he's going to assassinate his target and giving them time to prepare, doing the job sloppily, or taking credit for deaths that weren't even his.
* CatsHaveNineLives: He is a cat, after all. One of which was apparently lost from getting run over by a train.
* ChildhoodFriends: He has been friends with Garfield, going to college together.
* CombatPragmatist: Probably the only thing he is successful at being an assassin. He does not play fair at all and is willing to go to extreme, dirty measures to frame his enemies or beat them in a fight.
* TheNapoleon: Easily the smallest member of the Radioactive Uber Clan and is a complete warmongering psychopath.
* NoIndoorVoice: Easily the loudest member of the RUC. He is so loud that [[BeyondTheImpossible his screeches become quiet!]] He actually weaponizes this with a buff to him and/or damaging his enemies.
* SelfMadeOrphan: He murders his owner in his sleep due to the belief that he was being abused by him. In truth, his owner literally filled the house with cat food and Felix was still concerned over starving to death!
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Due to getting run over by a train once, he is deathly afraid of trains. This comes to play in Steves scenario where using [[spoiler: Ambush Bugs Train Skill]] can deal double damage to Felix.

* KickTheDog: He is very prone to this. He showed his "mothers" severed head to his "brother" while mocking him, he was gloating about his punishment to Bern, and he generally rubs it in if the heroes have even one setback.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: His sprite is actually one of the widest human sprites, if not the widest in the entire game, giving him a standout appearance.

to:

!! Fat Albert
[[quoteright:182:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/albert.PNG]]

Possibly the most well known member of the Radioactive Uber Clan, Fat Albert is apparently the RUC's personal Tech Expert. He ended up getting a huge grudge against Bern for years due to his harassment of her getting him kicked out of Mike's Settlement and due to this, the RUC saw Mike and company as evil demons ever since. Albert is the main antagonist of Berns scenario, capturing her during the prologue and became a recurring threat during her scenario.

!!Tropes
* Acrofatic: Despite his size, he can actually run very fast, much to the shock of Mike's followers.
* ArchEnemy: To Bern. She's everything he dislikes on a person and his outburst against her caused him to get kicked out of Mike's Settlement. To Albert, he sees this as a personal vendetta.
* CainAndAbel: The Cain to Negative Alberts Abel.
* EvilCounterpart: To his "twin" brother, Negative Albert. Ironically enough, Negative Albert sees himself as this.
* EvilIsPetty: The whole reason why the RUC has been after Mike and his followers for years? You can blame Albert due to him getting kicked out.
** Similarly, his entire slaughtering of his family can be seen as such. His mother was strict but to him, he saw this as a reason to kill her. Negative Albert was due to the belief he's an "evil" clone.
* EvilGloating: Particularly prone to this. Case in point, when he was rubbing it in Berns face when he captured her and he was mocking and showed Mama Alberts decapitated head when he finally attacked Negative Albert.
* FatBastard: Somehow makes the cartoon Fat Albert he is based off look skinny by comparison. He's the largest member of the RUC and is one of the most unpleasant people to hang around with. He somehow makes [[WesternAnimation/SouthPark Eric Cartman]] of all people look like a kindhearted soul by comparison.
* {{Gasshole}}: One of his attacks is producing a huge fart on his enemies.
* PsychopathicManchild: Easily the most immature and cruel member of the RUC, which is saying something.
* SelfMadeOrphan: He ended up decapitating his mother, Mama Albert in a fit of immature rage during Berns scenario.

* UnknownRival: To Mike. While Mike notices Albert a lot and at least tries to converse with him, there's barely any actual animosity from Mike when it comes to Popeye. It's implied he doesn't even notice Popeye at all until during the events of the game.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Possibly the '''only''' redeeming factor Popeye has is he shows at least some genuine care about his members.

* ICantHearYou: For some reason, when Jafar was defeated by Mike because [[spoiler:Popeye temporarily killed Cocaine]], Jafar was begging Popeye to help him up but Popeye believed he was dead, either ignoring everything he is saying or his ears went mute. This proved to be Jafars downfall as [[spoiler:His own friend [[BuriedAlive buries him alive.]]]]

!! Popeye The Sailor
[[quoteright:179:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/popeye_3.PNG]]

The leader of the Radioactive Uber Clan and by extension, the main antagonist of Crashocalypse. He's not like the typical cartoon sailor you knows as this Popeye is much more violent, vicious, and downright insane than the original. He believes in purging the world of "demons" and is willing to do anything to achieve his goals. Ever since Albert was kicked out of Mike's community, Popeye has targeted Mike, believing he's the source of all evil. During the start of the game, he has gained considerable power and is seen ruling his conquered territory with an iron fist.

!!Tropes:

* ANaziByAnyOtherName: While this applies to all of the RUC, this heavily applies to Popeye. There's a lot of parallels between him and Adolf Hitler. Both are leaders of a fanatical faction with their followers listening to every word they say, both take part in purging "undesirables" by any means necessary, and both of their factions naturally falls apart as their respective war goes on.
* DirtyCoward: He usually runs away when things are never going his way or if Mike is around and he isn't dead. He tends to only fight back if the person he sees is weaker than him or if he has no other choice.
* IrrationalHatred: Anything that is considered "demonic" or different, Popeye will have his clan go out to exterminate them by any means necessary.
* FinalBoss: Is the final boss the player fights in Mike's scenario, whose scenario is the last one in the game.
* OneWingedAngel: During the final fight against him, Popeye consumes "Spinach"(Which is implied to be something radioactive and not really spinach), causing him to transform into [[spoiler:Demi-Popeye]].
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: His definitions of a demon usually goes to anyone who is a minority, LGBT, or even friends of said people. His first "villain" he fought he gave the name of "Mr. Jap".
* TheSocialDarwinist: He holds some social darwinist attitudes, believing a hero is someone who is powerful and they always win while demons are ones who lose.
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: He was always insane before the events of the game but by the time he wipes out Mike's settlement and has the RUC rise in power, he becomes absolutely ''unhinged''.

Added DiffLines:

* BlatantLies: It's very obvious that whatever they say for sympathy or justification is far from the truth. The only people who believe them are other members of the RUC or people who go along with it if it means to act like a dick to everyone else.

The main antagonistic force, the Radioactive Uber Clan from VideoGame/{{Crashoclypse}}

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:General]]

!!The Radioactive Uber Clan
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ruc.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:250:#MakeBelieve]]

The main antagonists of Crashocalypse. A group of (mostly) cartoon characters who believe they're eradicating the world of evil "Demons" and are willing to do anything, even conquer the Natto Peninsula or slaughter thousands to achieve their goals. They somehow got a surge in power, destroying Mike's Settlement and managed to conquer portions of the Natto Peninsula. Despite this, they're usually incompetent or at the very least, too stupid to be taken seriously at times.

!! Tropes:
* ANaziByAnyOtherName: They end up having a lot of disturbing Nazi-esque tropes apply to them, even though they insist they aren't. Ironically, they recruit Neo Nazis into the RUC.
* ArchEnemy: They paint Mike and his community as such, mostly due to the banning of Fat Albert when he harassed Bern in the Shack. They see them all as "Evil reality warping demons who commence blood orgies and plunge the world into darkness" with no redeeming features at all.
* BelievingTheirOwnLies: It's speculated that their ways to demonize and slander their enemies made them believe in everything they said.
* BerserkButton: Whooo boy..... Liking anime, being friends or anywhere near Mike, Spicy food, Accusing them of being nazis or racist, [[CantTakeCriticism criticizing their actions]]... The list goes on and on.
* {{Demonization}}: The RUC has taken this trope to its most literal. They actually slander and believe their own enemies are actual demons with satanic powers and want to plunge the world into darkness.
