4	!!Players and DM:
5	[[folder: DM!Marty]]
6	* AngstDissonance: According to MM&I, he frequently complains about minimal noises or other stimuli blaming it on his "supernaturally acute" senses, while getting angry at implications that he was simply over-sensitive. This bogs his games down every time he decides he's being overstimulated and stops all action to "recover".
7	* BerserkButton: Gets positively furious when the players make jokes at the expense of his OCs (or fail to act suitably impressed/awed by them). Expect RocksFallEveryoneDies whenever he's described as getting angry.
8	* BlatantLies: Claims to never railroad the players as he lets them ''try'' anything they want to do. The fact the laws of physics and established setting seem to change at random to specifically shoot down all of their ideas except the ones that put them on an undefined critical path says otherwise.
9	* CantTakeCriticism: Whenever criticism is voiced at his setting, DM-ing style or setting, he will either punish that player's character in-game, go on a long tirade on why he is right, change the setting and rules of the game to invalidate that criticism (without addressing it), or all of the above.
10	* EvenEvilHasStandards: When he comments that he would have given Darya a Charisma and Wisdom penalty if she had gotten a scar as ''being less attractive would have made her feel less human'', he is quick to retract it and actually apologize when MM&I confronts him about it. [[IgnoredEpiphany He later gives Cael a Wisdom penalty for being wounded in the eye anyway]].
11	* {{Hypocrite}}: Attempts to derail the plot and play as an overpowered character with zero regard for the story or other characters in ''Deadlands''. When he's in the GM seat, he purposefully nerfs every player character, demands his story be followed to a T and gets enraged when they attempt to do anything he doesn't expect/allow them.
12	* KillerDM: And how. Some of the characters are even removed from the game on a whim on tenuous grounds of being "unfit".
13	* NeverMyFault: Is noted to never apologize or admit he's wrong, ever, with the only exception being the incident with Darya's scar.
14	* RootingForTheEmpire: Literally so, as he idolizes the Empire from Franchise/StarWars, especially once he makes Villain!Marty take over as Emperor and turns it into his omniversal invasion force.
15	* SmallNameBigEgo: To the point he makes it an actual rule at the table that the player characters can't know something he doesn't because he is by definition the smartest person in the setting, despite failing to understand even basic physics concepts.
16	* SmugSnake: Described as constantly smiling whenever he's deliberately feeding the players confusing information or throwing nerfs on their characters.
17	* WhoDares: "How dare you!" is prominently thrown around in his rants when putting down players and player characters alike.

32
33	[[folder: The Scientist]]
34	'''Player:''' Zeroller
35
36	Zeroller's unnamed first character in the homebrew campaign.
37	* DeadpanSnarker: Makes light of the situation whenever DM!Marty tries to ham up the gravitas. The second time he does it, Marty straight up deletes his character from the game.
38	* GuileHero: While the weakest character of the group, he manages to finish a mission by merely fast-talking the enemy into thinking they've been scammed and tricking them into letting themselves be taken into custody.
39	* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished:He's removed from the game via being permanently put in a psychiatric ward for disobeying (unspoken) orders to let backup finish his mission, instead managing to end it diplomatically and without bloodshed.
40	* MindOverMatter: His main "combat" power is talekinesis. Unfortunately under the homebrew system rules this amounts to flinging pebbles, and even then the backlash from that spell stops him from doing it more than a few times in succession.
41
42	[[/folder]]
43
44	[[folder: Igor]]
45	The Scientist's assistant and experiment.
46
47	* AssassinOutclassin: Attempts to sneak after Blackhawk in the first session. Of course, Blackhawk doesn't even acknowledge her attempt at stealth.
48	* DisproportionateRetribution: DM!Marty lays on her player when she kills two gnolls who tried to extort the party. This is the final incident that leads her player to retire her.
49	* DistaffCounterpart: Described as "a female [[VideoGame/{{Prototype}} Alex Mercer]]".
50	* WolverineClaws: Her weapon of choice.
51	* TheWorfBarrage: She finds her attacks do nearly to no damage to [[Franchise/StarWars Stormtroopers]] of all things.

58	A soldier from the Death Korps of Krieg in the TabletopGame/Warhammer40K universe.
59
60	* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Takes out a high-level devil within the first hour of him playing, thanks to a timely distraction by Blackhawk allowing him to blow the fiend up.
61	* GunNut: Loves his guns and is excited to add weapons of every sort to his arsenal.
62	* HumanPopsicle: Lily freezes his body after he dies. It's implied she flees to Eberron with him to revive him in an universe outside of Villain!Marty's reach.
63	* LittleUselessGun: Being a Death Korpsman, he starts the game with a lasgun, and it's just as pathetic in the homebrew system as it is in its original one, hitting for 1d6 damage when most other guns hit for 3 or 4 dice per shot.
64	* TheHeroDies: The one party member that played the campaign from beginning to end gets unceremoniously killed by the Marty clone.
65	* TheWorfBarrage: Throws everything he can at the Marty clone that attacks the MIC base. The clone [[NoSell NoSells]] everything.

73
74	* AnIcePerson: Her element of choice.
75	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Being originally a character from a former campaign, she has forgotten everything about her previous exploits.
76	* TheMole: Her backstory makes her a spy from the lich city, planted in the party to keep an eye on them after they attempt to attack them.
77	* WeHaveReserves: She helps the party traverse the Tomb of Horrors by constantly summoning ice monsters to soak up its death-traps.

91	'''Player:''' Anonymous
92
93	A decker ally of Darya from the Cthulhutech campaign.
94
95	* AffablyEvil: He keeps tabs on the rest of the party and even has blackmail material on them to ensure their collaboration, but is more than happy helping and supporting the party as long as they don't turn on him.
96	* CarFu: Manages to kill two dhohanoids by smashing a hovertruck into them.
97	* MissionControl: Prefers to use his skills to guide Darya from a distance, never getting into the thick of battle.

103
104	A Tager (eldritch shapeshifter) party member from the Cthulhutech campaign.
105
106	* BareFistedMonk: He invested into martial arts training so that he's still handy in a fight without having to shapeshift.
107	* HeroicSacrifice: He soaks up a lethal fireball from a lich to save the party.
108	* ParentalAbandonment: His hook to join the campaign is finding information on his missing parents.

129	[[/folder]]
130
131	[[folder: Cael]]

133
134	A tinkerer working for the Scions of Forever who joins the Cthulhutech party.
135
136	* TheAlcoholic: Always carries around high-proof alcohol, both to drink and to turn into fuel for his weapons.
137	* HaveYouSeenMyGod : Yog-Sototh stops sending him visions towards the end of the campaign, with the explanation being that it's dead or heavily weakened.
138	* MindOverMatter: Has minor telekinetic powers, which according to DM!Marty "create a projection of damage", meaning they only work on living creatures and can't be used in any utilitarian way.
139	* {{Munchkin}}: He builds his character up specifically to attempt to avoid DM!Marty's shenanigans. [[TheBadGuyWins He at least puts up a valiant effort]].
140	* {{Oireland}}: Plays with the Irish stereotype, mostly so that she has an excuse to lug around high-proof alcohol for her incendiary weapons.
141	* ReligionOfEvil: Is a cultist of Yog-Sototh, tasked with bringing about its bidding.
142	* WeNeedADistraction: Pretends to be blackout drunk to distract the guards during a mission, so the rest of the party can sneak in.
143	[[/folder]]
144
145	[[folder: Blackhawk]]
146	An agent from the MIC who recruits the party in the homebrew game.
147
148	* BigDamnHeroes: DM!Marty retcons Rick slaying a cornugon into Blackhawk saving him from the devil.
149	* FaceHeelTurn: Joins Villain!Marty immediately upon him attacking the MIC base.
150	* {{GMPC}}: Fulfills this role until Villain!Marty can steal the scene.
151
152	[[/folder]]
153
154	[[folder: Villain!Marty]]
155	* AGodAmI: DM!Marty adds the ''Eye of Mahdi'' to the Cthulhutech campaign, heavily implying it foretells the coming of Villain!Marty to the setting (and thus that he IS Mahdi)
156	* BadassNormal: Before awakening to his Authyr powers, he implies his "berzerker blood" makes him strong enough to dispatch two armed men with no effort. Notably, as it happens right after the split that leads to the creation of the setting, this implies DM!Marty is the same.
157	* CharmPerson: He is able to convince anyone to do anything by the power of his charisma alone, be it convincing Palpatine to abdicate the Empire in his favor or any agents like Blackhawk to instantly switch to his side.
158	* CutLexLuthorACheck: In Zeroller's words, one of the first things he did upon becoming omnipotent was giving himself one billion dollars and he still steals cable.
159	* FauxAffablyEvil: Tries to appear as a reasonable authority figure who is happy to sit down and discuss his motivations with his enemies even in the middle of a battle. He's still a petty tyrant who thinks [[EarthShatteringKaboom atomizing entire inhabited planets]] qualifies as a "warning shot".
160	* ForTheEvulz: Exactly zero reasoning is given for Villain!Marty suddenly deciding that his calling is to conquer the omniverse, disrupting countless lives and killing billions of innocents in his crusade, except a vague reference at it being "what he's always wanted all along".
161	* NoSell: Having given himself cherry-picked powers from a system that already veers towards making insanely tanky characters, he ends up shrugging off anything thrown at him.
162	* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Villain!Marty gives himself the powers of a specific variety of vampire written by DM!Marty, which among other things can subsist on as little as a cup of blood per day and is completely immune to most things that would kill a vampire - ''sunlight'' included.
163	* PushyGunTotingVillain: On a ''multiversal'' scale. His MO of taking over an universe is to threaten to destroy inhabited planets until all sentient life agrees to be subjugated by him. Most notably, [[TortureFirstAskQuestionsLater he starts destroying planets ''before'' even making his demands]].
164	* SmugSnake: When he (or rather, his clone) confronts Rick, he makes it pointedly clear he's literally allowing him to put up any kind of resistance only for as long as he finds it amusing.
165	* TheSocialDarwinist: Believes anyone except the strongest being in the universe doesn't deserve free will. [[SarcasmMode Good thing he can just turn himself into the strongest being in the universe effortlessly]].
166	* TomTheDarkLord: Marty isn't too threatening a name for a villain, though it's a pseudonym the writers allege to be using to avoid breaking down laughing at the villain's actual name.
167	* UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: At least in his mind, as he claims he's the only one suitable to establish a perfect rule in the entire omniverse - never mind that said rule involves what amounts to slavery for everyone involved and direct mind control of anyone with a shred of authority.
