Line #38 PlayingWith/KillerRabbit


1	'''Basic Trope''': A cute critter that can hand out pain and death with no problem.
2	* '''Straight''': [[MeaningfulName Kelvin]] is a cute baby unicorn who can shoot [[ShockAndAwe huge bolts of electricity]] from his horn.
3	* '''Exaggerated''':
4	** Kelvin is a SickeninglySweet baby unicorn who can create giant hurricanes that [[PersonOfMassDestruction can destroy entire cities, and sometimes even planets at will]], [[EyeBeams and he can fire powerful laser beams from his eyes.]]
5	** Every single cute or attractive, [[{{Fanservice}} let alone sexy]], critter in the multiverse is trying to kill you.
6	** CuteIsEvil
7	* '''Downplayed''': Kelvin is a rather attractive adult unicorn. The horn ''is'' there for [[HornAttack a reason]]...
8	* '''Justified''':
9	** Unicorns were always capable of doing this as a way of self-defense.
10	** "Cute" doesn't discourage most predators, and unicorns are one of the many species that developed something that ''would''.
11	** Alternatively, the unicorns are the predators.
12	** The unicorn knows magic.
13	* '''Inverted''':
14	** FakeUltimateMook
15	** PaperTiger
16	** [[FaceOfAThug K'ghtra is a horrifying-looking GiantSpider that is completely harmless]].
17	* '''Subverted''': The electric bolts that Kelvin attacks with are big, but they aren't very painful.
18	* '''Double Subverted''':
19	** The electric bolts are just a warning, but he's is also capable of burning down foes to ashes with his fire-breath if they don't get the hint.
20	** The "not-so-painful" electric bolts blind Kelvin's enemies.
21	** Even better, the bolts [[MindRape leave a huge psychological scar]] on the enemies.
22	* '''Parodied''': In the story's setting, the cuter a creature is, the stronger it is, while the uglier a monster is, the weaker it is.
23	* '''Zig Zagged''': Not all cute creatures have powerful attacking capabilities, but it is impossible to know which do and which don't without someone, at some point, finding out the hard way.
24	* '''Averted''': Unicorns are cute/majestic. That's all there is to it. They're even hesitant to ''stab'' attackers with their trademark horns.
25	* '''Enforced''':
26	** "Viewers like cute creatures, as well as powerful ones. Let's combine both features to make something that will please all the fans!"
27	** Kelvin was created to teach AnAesop about not underestimating someone or something that looks harmless.
28	* '''Lampshaded''':
29	** "It's amazing how a critter so cute can cause so much destruction."
30	** "And ''that's'' why you can't [[PetBabyWildAnimal keep him]]."
31	* '''Invoked''': A species of small carnivores has evolved to look much less dangerous than they actually are as a way of catching potential prey off-guard.
32	* '''Exploited''': Emperor Evulz offers Kelvin as a present to the hero, figuring the unicorn might kill the hero by accident.
33	* '''Defied''': Kelvin refuses to learn offensive powers, arguing that his cuteness would act as a natural form of protection.
34	* '''Discussed''': "...and I suppose that when you're spasming uncontrollably on the ground, you'll still call Kelvin 'Cute.'"
35	* '''Conversed''':
36	-->'''Viewer A''': Whoa! Baby unicorns can ''zap'' people?\
37	'''Viewer B''': Yeah, you didn't know that?
38	* '''Deconstructed''': Because they are so cute, many people ignore the unicorns' deadliness (even as ''babies''), and so a lot of pet-owner wannabes adopt baby unicorns. [[NotSoHarmlessPunishment Cue a huge spike in electricity-related deaths]].
39	* '''Reconstructed''': ...but with the proper training, unicorn owners can have their pets shock on command or in defense '''only'''. Unicorn owners rarely have to worry about home invasion.
