8	-->''FC: Shizuo Heiwajima of Literature/{{Durarara}}''
9
10	The illegitimate first child of Oliver Courtwater, and thus Lucas Courtwater's half brother. His mother vanished under mysterious circumstances when he was a child, and he was raised by a small squad of godmothers. A bartender, security guard, and professional battler all in one. He has recently left for Hoenn, following a possible lead on his mother's whereabouts.
11
12	%%* AngerBornOfWorry: The reason he's frequently upset with Ronnie.
13	%%* BadassBiker
14	%%* BadassInANiceSuit
15	%%* BigBrotherInstinct: Toward Ronnie and Shiori, and Lucas, naturally.
16	%%* {{Bouncer}}: His most frequent job position.
17	%%* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Falls into this role for Shiori, though he tends to give her some leeway.
18	* CurbStompBattle: Delivers one to the thugs trying to abduct Faline in Mauville.
19	%%* DeadpanSnarker
20	* DisapprovingLook: The moment Ronnie is up to her usual shenanigans, this look becomes Elliot's default expression.
21	%%* HeroicBastard
22	%%* HugeGuyTinyGirl: With basically all the girls he knows, non-romantically.
23	* ImplacableMan: At least where Ronnie is concerned. She even refers to him as a Franchise/{{Terminator}} at one point.
24	%%* MadeOfIron
25	%%* MissingMom
26	* OnlySaneMan: So often that he sees it as his curse - though he may be turning into more of an UnfazedEveryman.
27	* RageBreakingPoint: Mostly just in the IC. It usually involves Ronnie somehow.
28	%%* SmokingIsCool
29	* UnwantedHarem: Played for laughs in the IC, with a gaggle of fourteen-year-old girls gunning for him.
30	* WackyParentSeriousChild: His mother, his father, and his godmothers are all pretty silly in their own ways, leaving Elliot to provide most of the sanity. Most people would probably mistake ''Lucas''' mother for his, if they based it on personality.
31
32	!!Dorothy Burton
33	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/b30afcb71e8c5985af7afc8a2c206464.png]]
34	-->''FC: Eclair Tonnerre of Manga/OuranHighSchoolHostClub''

37
38	%%* BrutalHonesty
39	* TheChosenOne: Sees herself as this in a sense, working off an inaccurate psychic vision she had as a child and thinking she was chosen by Providenc. Believes she's meant to rid the world of Jared and Jerry, both of whom she sees as unredeemably evil.
40	* DarkAndTroubledPast: Abandoned by her mother and experimented on by her father, was helpless to prevent the torture of her cousin and was traumatized to the point of warping her memories of the events
41	%%* DissonantSerenity: Until Jerry or Jared start getting under skin.
42	* EvenEvilHasStandards: She did manage to put an end to some of Jared's schemes when she seized apparent control of his operation.
43	%%* MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter
44	* ManipulativeBastard: To a lesser extent than her father, but manipulates events in hopes of setting up a situation where Jerry will kill Jared, and allow Dorothy to cause Jerry's death and claim it was self-defense.
45	%%* MoralityPet: Lucas
46	%%* TheOnlyOneAllowedToKillYou: Toward Jared and Jerry.
47	%%* PsychicPowers
48	%%* SugaryMalice

56	An Interpol agent based in Saffron, currently heading a controversial task force.
57
58	%%* ActionGirl

62	%%** FastRoping: Her signature.
63	* BlackHelicopter: Seemingly her primary mode of transportation.
64	%%* FairCop
65	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Lauren, her partner at Interpol.
66	* HighlyConspicuousUniform: All things considered, this is probably the least conspicuous part of her. That is not a good thing.
67	%%* InterpolSpecialAgent
68	%%* LadyOfWar
69	* TheLastDJ: Her tendency to make risky judgement calls without alerting the higher-ups has put her on many of her superiors' blacklists, but she remains too effective to fire outright.
70	* LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn: Yes, that chase scene music is actually coming from her helicopter's intercom speakers.
71	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Aims to be this, after encountering too many agents who were either morally indifferent, or entirely self-serving.
72	* ReassignedToAntarctica: In the IC, she has been transferred from Saffron City to the ambiguous and anonymous land in which the IC takes place.
73	%%* RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Lauren's Blue
74	%%* RuleOfCool: Seems to thrive off this.
75	%%* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight

91	* ManipulativeBastard: Makes events work to his favor even while institutionalized.
92	* MightAsWellNotBeInPrisonAtAll: Put in an institution following the psychotic break that led to him gouging Jerry's eye out with a fireplace poker. This does next to nothing to prevent him from continuing his experiments and manipulating events through his Pokemon.
93	* OffstageVillainy: Doesn't actually make an appearance until the finale.
94	%%* PapaWolf: Toward Dorothy
95	%%* {{Sadist}}
96	%%* SlasherSmile: This probably runs in the family too.
97	%%* TheSociopath
98	* WeakButSkilled: Much more an intellectual than a fighter, and his time in the asylum has worn him down some.
99	%%* WellIntentionedExtremist: Sees himself as this.

103	-->''FC: Yuuka Kazami of Franchise/TouhouProject''
104
105	%%* BunnyEarsLawyer
106	* DemonicDummy: The entire purpose for Lauren's schtick with Marie (her ventriloquist dummy who she treats as though it's a real person) is to unnerve or distract people.
107	%%* TheGadfly
108	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Heloise; appropriate, considering they're partners in Interpol
109	%%* InterpolSpecialAgent
110	* LetsGetDangerous: When you don't see Marie with her, you know she's serious.
111	* ObfuscatingStupidity: She acts like a ditz whenever she's got Marie in hand
112	%%* RedOniBlueOni: The Blue to Heloise's Red
113	%%* [[StraightMan Straight Woman]]
114	* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Averted: Most people think she's pretty weird for carrying around a puppet and talking to it as if it were a real person

122
123	* AmicableExes: With Elliot's mother.
124	* BumblingDad: He has no idea what he's doing when it comes to Lucas. Does better with Elliot, who never required him to truly fulfill the father role; they're more like friends.
125	* BunnyEarsLawyer: The one at the office who never seems to ''do'' anything besides drink coffee in the boss's office and pester the staff. But he's also the company's "fixer" of sorts.
126	%%* TheCasanova: Prior to meeting Elliot's mother.
127	%%* TheCharmer
128	%%* DeadpanSnarker: Actually.
129	%%* HyperAwareness
130	* ILoveYouBecauseICantControlYou: It's pretty clear Regina's the one running this show.

157	* ParentalSubstitute: To Jeremiah.

166
167	* AboveGoodAndEvil: Ultimately, his motivation for most things. If he knows someone involved in a mess, chances are he'll step in; otherwise he tends to ignore things unless they personally interest him.
168	* TheAce: As a Treecko he was Ryusuke's best and most skilled fighter, and that hasn't changed much.
169	* BashBrothers: Once again, with Ryusuke, although this tends to rotate between him, Charmeleon and a handful of others.

176	* ElementalPunch: One of Grovyle's most used moves prior to evolving is Thunder Punch.
177	%%* FragileSpeedster
178	%%* GutFeeling: Typically what Grovyle follows. Most of the time it pays off.
179	* HeroicBastard: His egg was obtained from a breeder. While he has met his brother, so far Grovyle has had yet to meet either of his parents.
180	%%* IGotBigger
181	%%* InHarmonyWithNature: Comes with his species and evolutionary line.
182	%%* LetsGetDangerous: His choice to evolve during the Lavender Labyrinth to keep up with escalating threats.
183	%%* PickyEater
184	%%* PokemonSpeak: Naturally, much to his annoyance at times.
185	%%* SpeedBlitz: Typically his favored fighting style.
186	* SuperReflexes: The only way he can stay in control of his motions when at top speed, Grovyle's reflexes got a bit of an upgrade on evolving.
187	%%* ThereAreNoTherapists: Somewhat justified in being TheUnintelligible.
188	%%* TookALevelInBadass
189	%%* TrueCompanions: With Ryusuke.
190	* TheUnintelligible: Subverted. While unable to speak in a language understandable by most, he's capable of writing and typing and will do so when he feels it necessary and can.
191	* WeakButSkilled: Well aware that he isn't particularly powerful or durable, he tends to focus on this.

204	%%* MoralityPet: Used to be this for her school friend.
205	%%* NiceGirl
206	* OceanAwe: Despite pretty much living in the middle of the ocean, she is rarely unimpressed with it. Helps that she spent a lot of her life ''under'' the ocean, where the majesty of the sea is especially amazing.
207	* PsychicPowers: Doesn't know it, but is retro-cognitive.
208	* [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Girl]]: She does a lot of studying when she needs it.

213	-->''FC: Fate Testarossa of Franchise/LyricalNanoha''
214
215	A veteran Trainer of thirty odd years, Elinda (or Ellie for short) hails from a small foreign region. One of the founders and former Commanders of the region's dominant Team after spending decades traveling, the woman had fled the region along with her niece and remaining family to start anew in one of the larger, better known regions.
216
217	* ActionMom: She's got a seventeen year-old son, a fourteen year-old daughter, and she can kick ass like nobody's business.
218	* [[AmazinglyEmbarrassingParents Amazingly Embarrassing Mom]]
219	%%* BadassBookworm
220	%%* ConfusionFu: Adept at it, though not necessarily just in battle.
221	%%* CreepyGood: Stalkerish tendencies.
222	* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: On the surface, Elinda is a goofy, possibly crazy, woman who likes to shove her nose where it doesn't belong. The moment she is crossed, though, Elinda reveals she can be manipulative, strategic, and extremely intimidating when she wants to be.
223	%%* GeniusBruiser: Describes most of her Pokemon.
224	* GeniusDitz: She has many, many quirks that could easily qualify her as a {{Cloudcuckoolander}}. She also used to a professional battler for Devon Corp, having only stopped for reasons yet to be explained.
225	%%* IRejectYourReality: Played for laughs.
226	%%* MamaBear: Do NOT mess with her family.

240	* LookingForLoveInAllTheWrongPlaces: Sex was all he ever wanted, but it didn't really fill the hole in his heart. He craves that special somebody.

242	%%* ParentalNeglect
243	* PrettyBoy: Not too beef'd out to be hunky, Jason doesn't mind being called a Pretty Boy.

283
284	A runaway gangster at the age of eighteen-years-old, Richelle “Ricki” Jace has been a massive handful for her single mother most of her life. Managing to anger a terrorist organization and then stealing information from them, Ricki has left nothing but trouble in her wake. Despite being just nineteen-years-old, Ricki already has been divorced, watched groups of men die, and seems to be a magnet for jerks and perverts. With such terrible luck and a rough history behind her, the skillful trainer has finally begun her quest down the road to a better life.

298	%%* ScrewTheRulesImBeautiful: Also part of a RunningGag.
299	%%* UseYourHead: It seems to be genetic.

305	-->''FC: Edward Elric of Manga/FullmetalAlchemist''
306
307	The son of Elinda Aspen and Taichi Ugumi, Ryusuke is one of the more recent additions to a long line of Trainers and Breeders. Only recently having shed his greenhorn status thanks to a broad knowledge base and months of experience after leaving Lilycove, his defining feature would likely be his {{Jerkass}} attitude.
308
309	* BlessedWithSuck: His prosthetics. Rehab and surgery was not fun, and he can't swim anymore thanks to the weight, but may some higher power help you if you get stuck in a fist fight with him.
310	* BrilliantButLazy: Typically prefers to ignore trouble unless it becomes impossible to avoid, or someone forces him to deal with it.
311	%%* FragileSpeedster: His Treeko.

316	* MinoredInAssKicking: Doesn't really get much enjoyment out of battling, but that doesn't mean he can't fight.
317	* OnlySaneMan: Tends to be this when he's surrounded by the more... eccentric characters, especially his mother.
318	* ParentalAbandonment: As far as he's concerned, Elinda just sort of disappeared, leaving him and his sister with their dad.

341
342	%%* TheAtoner
343	%%* AwesomeByAnalysis: One of the reasons why he's so good at battles.
344	* BunnyEarsLawyer: No one would ever think that this guy was an archaeologist. Heck, no one in Arcane ever even entertained the notion that he was a ruthless killer and professional thief either... or that he's very good at all three. Admit it, you thought he was just a thug or some random wanderer too.
345	%%* ChallengeSeeker
346	%%* ChickMagnet
347	* DarkAndTroubledPast: What makes this even more tragic was that most of it was of his own making.
348	* DisappearedDad: The search for this guy is what drove Zernebog to sneak away from home and undergo a journey that would ultimately turn him into who he is today. Sometimes he wishes that he hadn't found him, though, because the truth hurts.
349	%%* FlawExploitation: One of his favorite tactics.

359	* SacrificedBasicSkillForAwesomeTraining: He's amazing at battling, espionage, murder, and archaeology, but either woefully naive or ignorant about most other things normal people would know. Like technology or normal social etiquette. He's not as bad as he used to be though.
360	* ScarilyCompetentTracker: His tracking skills were practically honed to perfection during the hunt for his father. This has caused groups like Steinhart to take an interest in him though.
361	* SupremeChef: Surprisingly, he is one despite the fact that he doesn't look like he even knows how. Certain people can definitely attest to this.
362	%%* TranquilFury

755	%%* CheshireCatGrin: One of his favorite expressions.
756	%%* ChivalrousPervert
757	* CircusBrat: He was one from birth until his late teen years. He still exhibits the skills he'd learned from his circus days and hasn't lost his touch, but very few people know this.
758	* ComplexityAddiction: He really loves making complex plans because it's more fun.
759	* ConMan: He's been this since he was forced to live on the streets and has just escalated the stakes and rewards.
760	* CorruptCorporateExecutive: The Hidalgos were this when they were alive, with Miguel keeping up the tradition of his predecessors.
761	* CryForTheDevil: After everything that he's been through, it's hard not to.
762	* DarkAndTroubledPast: People think that the murder of his immediate family is this, but that's only a small part of the story. Most of it he keeps buried and unknown to the world, and he'd like to keep it that way.
763	* DarkIsEvil: He pretends to be Dark is Not Evil, but in truth he is. Very much so.
764	%%* EvilLaugh: Has one and practices it.
765	%%* EvilOrphan: To the Hidalgos even though he was adopted as an adult.
766	%%* FauxAffablyEvil
767	* FiveFingerDiscount: He used to do it back when he was on the streets, and sometimes even now just for fun.
768	* FriendsWithBenefits: The current relationship between Miguel and Miyu
769	* InLoveWithYourCarnage: One of the reasons why he likes Miyu so much and keeps her around.
770	* LargeHam: That's what happens when you're raised in a circus and love it.
771	%%* LeParkour
772	* LivingLieDetector: He's been trained by his master to spot lies by sensing and/or viewing someone's Aura. He's also taught himself on how to read most of a person's more obvious tells when lying.
773	%%* ManipulativeBastard
774	* ManOfWealthAndTaste: Became this after being adopted by the Hidalgo family
775	* MasterOfTheMixedMessage - To the point that everyone thinks that he's a couple with Miyu when she's just his friend and secretary. Being FriendsWithBenefits with her and her encouraging the misconception doesn't help.
776	%%* MrFanservice
777	%%* MultilayerFacade: In the literal sense.
778	* NightmareFetishist: He openly likes morbid topics like death, torture, and blood. It's somewhat stereotypical of a Dark Gym Leader so he doesn't get much strange stares for it. However, he does hide the fact that he finds it hot when a beautiful woman murders and tortures people as well.
779	%%* OfficialCouple: With Miyu Sergius, by WordOfGod(s)
780	%%* OutlawCouple: With Miyu (again)
781	* ParentalAbandonment: Not only his parents, but his parental substitutes [=LeClaire=] and Anderson too!
782	* ParentalSubstitute: Initially [=LeClaire=] after the death of his entire family, but after learning of the truth about his actions it shifted to Michael Anderson, his mentor. Miguel lets people think that Don Felix was this, but he isn't.
783	%%* PercussivePickpocket: One of his methods for pickpocketing, though he prefers less obvious methods nowadays.
784	%%* {{Pyromaniac}}
785	* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: He went on one after finding out that [=LeClaire=] arranged the deaths of his family and the destruction of the circus he used to live in. This resulted in him murdering [=LeClaire=] and burning down the man's circus and all the people in it like the man had to his own years ago.
786	* ScarilyCompetentTracker: A product of his Aura abilities and training under Master Anderson.
787	* SecretIdentity: Grim/Le Capuchon. The name Miguel Hidalgo is technically another false identity since his real one, Francisco Colleano, has been declared dead for years.
788	%%* SensorCharacter: He is this through the use of Aura.
789	%%* SerialKiller: He develops into this after his first kill.
790	* SmokingIsCool: The main reason he actually smokes is to make himself look cool and sophisticated in order to complete his image.
791	* SympatheticMurderer: It's hard not to feel sorry for him after everything he's been through, but he's still a murderer through and through.
792	%%* TallDarkAndHandsome
793	%%* TroubledButCute
794	* VillainWithGoodPublicity: What he is aiming for.
795	%%* WickedCultured
796	* Yandere: Surprisingly, he is one for Miyu though it rarely ever rears its head.
797	* YouKilledMyFather: Miguel to [=LeClaire=], though it was both his parents and not just his dad.

890	Lorraine “Rain” Hasan was born and raised with the high expectations of becoming a world famous coordinator. But with her mother’s strict nature, constant lectures, and failing to win most of the contests she entered, Rain’s confidence was shot and her nerves were in a constantly rattled state. It wasn't up until recently did she finally snap under the pressure and run away from home and her career to begin her real dream of becoming a Pokémon Trainer.

902
903	At first glance, he may seem like nothing special, this 17 year old who is short for his age, but beneath the facade is a skilled tactical trainer whose aim is nothing short of champion of the Pokemon League. He employs various Pokemon trained to fight with a logical edge, but often falls short when the odds are stacked against him. Maelys has little memory of his mother, who disappeared when he was young, and his father works undercover, leaving him mostly to his own devices. Though he rarely gets a chance to show it, Mae does know self-defense, namely a method of using the opponents weight against them.

1007	-->''FC: Taiwan of Axis Power Hetalia''
1008
1009	A war veteran trainer hailing from an [[{{Roleplay/Predormitum}} unknown region]], the 24-year-old woman has now settled to travel around the peaceful regions as a retirement of sorts. She's a cheery, kind person, though be careful not to get on her bad side; while she has vowed to never kill again unless necessary; her war ridden past has made her restraints loose and shaky.
1010
1011	* AlternateContinuity: As of the revival of the [[{{Roleplay/Predormitum}} roleplay]] she was originally from, Stellar's current future have diverged into an alternate continuity.
1012	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Applies to her and mostly her team, especially the ones that had survived with her through the war.
1013	%%* ChildSoldiers: This was her, once upon a time.
1014	* CombatPragmatist: She have been this before, and if the stakes are high enough, Stellar wouldn't mind doing ''anything''.
1015	* DarkAndTroubledPast: She's reluctant to tell people about her past, for a good reason.
1016	* GeniusBruiser: Her Aggron fits this the most, though the steel type is also a GentleGiant.
1017	* NecessaryFail: She argued with her father, and stormed out of the house in a fit of childish stubbornness and fury. Stellar regrets it, but without it, she would never have been involved in the war, which taught her good and bad things. Without the war, she would never have a reason to move to these regions.
1018	* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Sometimes, enemies must stay down. Stellar knows. Her team knows, without their trainer's command.
1019	* WeakButSkilled: She might not look much, but don't [[{{BerserkButton}} piss her off]] in any way. She only [[UnstoppableRage barely reins]] in her battlelust, which was tempered into bloodlust thanks to the environment she was raised in.
