Line #34 PlayingWith/AllLovingHero


1	'''Basic Trope''': A [[IncorruptiblePurePureness supremely good person]] who has unlimited kindness and compassion for others.
2	* '''Straight''': Alice is [[TheCutie sweet,]] [[NiceGirl kind]] and [[EasilyForgiven forgiving]] of everyone.
3	* '''Exaggerated''': [[TheCutie Alice]] loves everyone and everything, even the BigBad, and the resident GodOfEvil.
4	* '''Downplayed''': Alice is a {{nice girl}}.
5	* '''Justified''':
6	** Alice is part of an AlwaysLawfulGood race, thus she is taught to be this since childhood.
7	** The story takes place on a WhiteAndGreyMorality setting, so Alice not only cares for everyone she meets; she also [[RousseauWasRight wants to bring the best in others.]]
8	** BeingGoodSucks [[KnightInSourArmor adds to her virtue]] and other times GoodFeelsGood.
9	** Being kind and forgiving allows her to build a large support base.
10	** Alice loves everyone because she's physically incapable of experiencing emotions beyond love.
11	** Alice has been on the receiving end of widespread hatred and discrimination, and doesn't want to see anyone else experience that pain.
12	** Alice's parents are also this and did their best to teach their daughter to be just as kind as them.
13	** Alice looks up to someone who practices the values of kindness, compassion and love, and she wants to be like that person.
14	** Alice lives in a CrapsackWorld, but she refuses to let that world [[BreakTheCutie break]] [[TookALevelInCynic her]] [[TookALevelInJerkass like it's broken]] other people like her.
15	** Alice is a follower of a religion that encourages people to be this.
16	** Alice is an ArtificialHuman who was designed to be this.
17	** Alice is actually MadeOfGood, and couldn't possibly be anything other than this.
18	* '''Inverted''':
19	** MisanthropeSupreme
20	** HatesEveryoneEqually
21	** DarkMessiah
22	** TheSociopath
23	** SociopathicHero
24	** The BigBad is all-loving.
25	** AffablyEvil [=/=] LovableRogue [=/=] NobleDemon
26	** GoodIsNotNice
27	** Alice is [[GoodIsNotNice unkind,]] [[{{Jerkass}} mean]] and [[HatesEveryoneEqually hating]] of everyone.
28	* '''Subverted''':
29	** It turns out Alice acts like this to [[TheAtoner atone]] for [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone something horrible she did in the past]].
30	** Alice turns out to be a BitchInSheepsClothing who acts like she loves everyone not because she genuinely does, but because putting on a saintly image makes her look good.
31	** Alice quickly bonds with everyone she meets, loves her TrueCompanions deeply, and complies a far longer list of people she'd [[HeroicSacrifice die for]] than anyone but complete strangers are a different story. When forced into a SadisticChoice between a friend's life and a city she'd never visited, she [[AlwaysSaveTheGirl decides to save her friend without hesitation or regret]].
32	** Alice [[IJustWantToBeLoved needs validation]] from ''everyone'' with whom she spends more than a millisecond; [[ItsAllAboutMe everything she does is to get this validation, not because she cares about the people she's helping]].
33	** It seems like Alice loves everyone including bad people, however she only loves bad people, enabling their bad behavior and [[BlamingTheVictim blaming the innocent people they hurt]].
34	* '''Double Subverted''':
35	** Alice is a ByronicHeroine.
36	** Whatever her past misdeed was, it still made her into a genuinely good person today who has learned how to be able to love anyone and everyone. This includes Alice herself - the process became complete once she was able to forgive herself for her past long after her friends had stopped holding it against her.
37	** The bitchiness was just a nasty rumour her enemies spread.
38	** Alice suffers [[PastExperienceNightmare bad dreams]] as a result of her choice because she ''did'' care about the people of the city. She wanted to TakeAThirdOption and save them both but couldn't think of it in time. In the end she put on a brave face for her friend but inside, she thought, "IShouldHaveBeenBetter".
39	** Alice experiences CharacterDevelopment and performs an ActOfTrueLove for [[FourLoves one of four subjects]].
40	* '''Parodied''': Alice has FertileFeet and flowers spring up wherever she walks. Heavenly harp music plays everywhere she goes. She can make the most vicious person repent and become TheAtoner with nothing but a "Now now, behave yourself."
41	* '''Zig Zagged''': Alice is revealed to act like an AllLovingHero because she's atoning for past wrongdoings, but it turns out to be just a rumour. Then she starts being a ManipulativeBitch towards her friends, so they assume she's [[BitchInSheepsClothing not so nice after all]], until they find out it's actually one of her enemies impersonating her to ruin her reputation. Her enemies' treatment of her causes her to become [[JadeColouredGlasses cynical]], but she [[KnightInSourArmor remains a kind and caring person deep down]].
42	* '''Averted''': Alice is a decent person, but does not love everyone and holds grudges.
43	* '''Enforced''':
44	** The creators want the protagonist to be someone whose easy to root for. What better then a guy who is all forgiving and all loving?
45	** The creators are worried that if the protagonist is too much of an AntiHero, MoralGuardians will complain about the show.
46	* '''Lampshaded''':
47	** "You can't help but be Alice's friend. [[MagneticHero She just has that effect on people.]]"
48	** "Aw, crap. It's another one of those "loves everybody" heroes. I'd rather fight [[AntiHero Draco]]."
49	* '''Invoked''': Alice becomes this to prove that GoodIsNotDumb.
50	* '''Exploited''':
51	** A ManipulativeBastard uses Alice's good nature against her and turns her into an UnwittingPawn.
52	** Alice is raised by controlling AbusiveParents who groom her into being this, hoping that it makes her easier to control.
53	* '''Defied''': Alice thinks GoodIsDumb and refuses to become like this.
54	* '''Discussed''': "You ever met Alice?" "She seems like a nice girl, though I think a little ''too'' nice for her own good. Unsavory sorts would try to get into her good graces for protection."
55	* '''Conversed''': "I find the idea of an all loving hero pretty weird. I mean, how could a person be ''that'' kind?" "Well, I figure they're more of an ideal, and that people should follow their example to become better individuals."
56	* '''Implied''': Towns that the Healer Alice visited speak highly of her to travelers, and those that know how her healing works can spot faint rose marks on the people she healed which varies from those with nicks to people who lost entire body parts, with the people healed themselves varying in morality.
57	* '''Deconstructed''':
58	** While Alice shows great kindness and compassion to many people, Bob is such a total scumbag, so [[EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes he's the only one that she will never be friendly and compassionate to]], though she still maintain her composure when around him. Once Bob has crossed the MoralEventHorizon in one way or another, she finally reach her RageBreakingPoint and [[BewareTheNiceOnes all hell breaks loose]].
59	** Since Alice loves everyone she [[IJustWantMyBelovedToBeHappy sacrifices her own happiness for the sake of everyone around her]].
60	** Alice loves ''everyone'', which includes [[CompleteMonster irredeemable monsters]] and [[TheUnapologetic unrepentant]] {{Hate Sink}}s, her compassion towards them becomes just as much of a hazard as their lunacy just because she [[GoodCannotComprehendEvil refuses to acknowledge]] how horrible these people actually are.
61	** Alice loves and forgives her enemies, who have pretended to make peace with her knowing that she'll forgive them. Unbeknownst to her, they plot against her behind her back, and she makes herself vulnerable to attack, and when her supposedly reformed enemies attack, she's completely defenseless.
62	** Alice ends up suffering from compassion fatigue. Everyone's troubles keep piling onto her until [[DespairEventHorizon she collapses underneath the load]].
63	** DudleyDoRightStopsToHelp
64	* '''Reconstructed''':
65	** Even though she's unable to move past bad blood with some people, she remains friendly to them.
66	** Whether it was a case of Alice finally gaining a sense of self-worth or her friend Beth just [[ArmorPiercingQuestion asking her "Does that include you?"]], Alice comes to realize that "everyone" should include ''herself'' as well. Alice adjusts her approach so that she as well as everyone around her can be happy.
67	** Though Alice may love everyone, [[GoodIsNotDumb she isn't stupid]] and only protects the villains she honestly believes can be redeemed. When faced with very dangerous and irredeemably evil villains, she won't hesitate [[MartialPacifist to fight or even kill them.]]
68	** Alice loves and forgives the villains who can't be redeemed, but still defeats them and sends them to prison and/or rehab as they deserve.
69	** Despite being completely defenseless to her supposedly reformed enemies, a few among them have a HeelFaceTurn and defend her while their former allies go for the kill. The actually reformed enemies die, and her expression of grief over their deaths make her supposedly reformed enemies realize they are wrong to try to harm her. They then begin to actually reform.
70	* '''Played For Drama''':
71	** Alice truly wants to help everyone, but [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption this isn't possible]] in Alice's CrapsackWorld. Even though she makes a positive impact, people still end up dying because the job is just too immense to handle on her own.
72	** Alice eventually [[BreakTheCutie breaks under the stress]] that comes from refusing to accept that she is [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption attempting the impossible]], and wobbles over the DespairEventHorizon.
73	** Even Alice has her breaking point, and those who endanger others, particularly her TrueCompanions, sometimes bring out a [[BewareTheNiceOnes less forgiving side]] of Alice that she herself is frightened and ashamed of.
74	** Even though BeingGoodSucks, Alice strives to [[EarnYourHappyEnding earn her happy ending]] in a CrapsackWorld.
