Added DiffLines:

'''Basic Trope''': A story is told entirely first person, completely concealing the identity of the the main character.
* '''Straight''': ''My Adventures'' is told in first person, and many key details are left out.
* '''Exaggerated''': We never find out anything about the protagonist's appearence, gender, life, name, nothing.
* '''Downplayed''': Although at first it appears there's nothing indicating the protagonist's traits, but going over the story reveals many subtle clues that reveal a substantial amount about the character.
* '''Justified''': Alice, the author, intended this and wrote the story in this manner to hide a spoiler.
** Alice wrote the story to teach Bob a lesson, but it wouldn't work if he'd known whose perspective it was off the bat.
* '''Inverted''': The story begins with the narrator listing off all of his traits.
* '''Subverted''': We quickly learn who the character is and their main attributes.
* '''Double Subverted''': Then it turns out the character is actually another character in disguise. The details of the person under the mask are never given.
* '''Parodied''': The writers demonstrate Alice's uncreativity having her TRY to create an interesting, well developed character, but instead make said character so bland nobody can figure anything about about him, nor really wants to. Alice then makes a comic adaptation and the character is your average stick figure with no defining traits.
