** Vriska's self-image is a metafictional commentary on the concept of a Mary Sue; she's a prettier, smarter, and stronger than everyone else (at least in her own head), and she [[SelfInsertFic inserts herself]] into situations to try to be the driving force behind every plot development.

The fact that other YMMV tropes are erroneously listed here (when they shouldn\'t be) does not make THIS one right. I will go through the character pages and search more thoroughly in the morning.


* BaseBreaker: Easily the most divisive character in the comic. Just look at how many tropes she has as compared to the rest of the trolls and kids.
** According to WordOfGod, [[http://www.formspring.me/andrewhussie/q/1836068087 this is intentional.]]



* TheScrappy: She has more fan-hatred directed towards her than any other character in the comic. "Everybody hates Vriska" has become a RunningGag among forum users. This being ''Homestuck'', it's an InvokedTrope by Andrew. [[CompleteMonster And it's entirely deserved.]]

I don\'t see why you have to single this one out in particular, when there are already subjective tropes in the characters pages.


* JerkAss: It says something, that amongst an entire [[strike:GROUP]] SPECIES of {{Jerkass}}es, she is the jerkassiest of them all.

* ComplexityAddiction: Vriska's biggest boast is the number of irons she has in the fire, pies in which she has fingers, and euphemistic representations of the number and complexity of her schemes. It is beginning to become apparent that she doesn't care if any of these irons ''conflict'', provided they are irons and she has them in the fire.

* GloryHound: Vriska [[spoiler: manipul8ed John into falling asleep - preventing him from weakening Jackspers and causing Bec to merge with the kernel sprite and giving Jack god-like powers - not just because she knew it would happen but so she could take credit for creating and eventually killing Bec Noir. At least, she ''thinks'' she'll be able to kill Bec Noir...]]

** And then Equius [[spoiler:makes her slap herself with the prosthetic arm he built for her]] when she tries to read his mind while they scheme to take control of the blue team. (A scheme he intends to subvert [[StalkerWithACrush for his own purposes.]])



* KickTheDog: Subverted: her first interaction with John involves using her psychic powers to cruelly and heart-wrenchingly yank him away from a heartfelt and long-overdue reunion with Dad. Accidentally, yes, but it looks like a textbook case of Vriska RUINING EVERYTHING, until she opens her STINKING LYING MOUTH and...helpfully points out that Jade's been about to get flattened by a big honking meteor since the end of Act 4, and John kind of needs to save her right away.
** And then she proceeds to be helpful, friendly, and informative for a while without any cruelty or backstabbing or villainy at ''all,'' and gets a large handful of humanizing moments in the process.
*** ...and then, when she talks to Tavros after his conversation with Jade, she plays it straight and ruins all the dog-petting prior to it. [[spoiler: Guess who causes Jade's "narcolepsy"?]]
