3-->--'''The first words of the Dark Lord'''
4
5On January 8, 2011, the Internet became a channel to dark eldritch forces with designs for our unsuspecting material world.
6
7[[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/inglipnomicon/images/a/a9/Tutlent.png Bingo.]]
8
9Lord Inglip is an internet meme started on [[http://www.reddit.com/r/Inglip/ Reddit]], interpreting [=reCAPTCHA=] codes as cryptic messages and commands from an EldritchAbomination. Contrary to the usual feel of such a meme, however, Lord Inglip seems to have more... [[http://www.geekosystem.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/radjump1.jpg understandable]] [[http://i.imgur.com/6ktUb.jpg interests]] (for varying definitions of the term).
10
11The saga is chronicled [[http://www.geekosystem.com/inglip/ here]] and in a [[http://inglipnomicon.wikia.com/wiki/Inglipnomicon_Wiki wiki]]. People interested in receiving the Dark Lord's words personally can consult [[http://churchofinglip.com/ its church]].
12----
13!!This meme provides examples of:
14* AffablyEvil: Despite its ruthless streak (dissenters are ordered [[DisproportionateRetribution decapitated, pureed, barbecued...]]), Lord Inglip seems pretty [[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/inglipnomicon/images/a/a9/Tutlent.png generous]] [[http://imgur.com/PyuQW to]] its [[http://i.imgur.com/qgYzp.png faithful]]. It even [[http://i.imgur.com/OQW5c.jpg mourns those who fall in its name]].
15* AndThenWhat: Shaskel gives an [[http://imgur.com/Unsw3F3 interesting answer]]
16* ArentYouGoingToRavishMe: Exaggerated - the heroine complains not to be ravished ''enough''. Given the gratuituous tentacles, less [[http://imgur.com/W9tPBNO NSFW]] than expected.
17* BeethovenWasAnAlienSpy: [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_VI_of_England Henry VI]], [[http://i.imgur.com/fZh7H.jpg apparently]]
18* TheBerserker and ManipulativeBastard: Being that [[http://i.imgur.com/IRxlU.jpg Shaskel's]] followers are like the Sith, this is a likely combination.
19** [[https://i.imgur.com/BlXmW.png essentially]] [[https://imgur.com/67KSD confirmed]].
20* BizarreAlienBiology: Among other things, it feels [[http://i.imgur.com/jT6BR.png mammals as emotions]].
21* BlackSpeech: Inglip's native tongue, [[http://i.imgur.com/bPz7h.png Plasper]].
22* BlindIdiotTranslation: This is how DL'GOKN's followers speak.
23* BlobMonster: The Plasba (judging from it's appearance and the allusion to "Plasma").
24* BlueAndOrangeMorality / BunnyEarsLawyer: Lord Inglip commands considerable respect and admiration, but its commands and [[http://i.imgur.com/Sj14a.jpg requests]] can sometimes be [[http://i.imgur.com/NdxNA.png somewhat]] [[http://i.imgur.com/kZMzf.png odd]].
25* BodyHorror: The Mantank is by far the most gory creature the dark lord has ever created. [[NinjaPirateZombieRobot Part robotic tank and part humanoid cyborg]], it stands several stories high and is made from [[HumanSacrifice sacrificed enemies]], including their souls.
26* BreakingTheFourthWall: [[http://imgur.com/N9kEkvG Prodlly]], who else. Also counts as WhoWritesThisCrap or SelfDeprecation (depending on whether you distinguish Prodlly the Author from Prodlly the Troll).
27* BrownNote: The word ''slasessa'' is Chydrego's [[http://i.imgur.com/CDajyyo.jpg weapon of choice.]] It is more potent if uttered by [[VideoGame/AgeOfEmpires experienced priests.]]
28* CareBearStare: [[http://i.imgur.com/u6N5f.jpg The 'E' note]], as impossible as it sounds.
29* CloudCuckooLander: Its [[http://i.imgur.com/ShWiu.png commands]] can tend towards the [[http://i.imgur.com/VDgoX.png strange]] and even [[http://i.imgur.com/Rzdhp.jpg whimsical]].
30* ColourCodedForYourConvenience: Partly. Whereas the different factions are always easily to distinguish by the color of their clothumes, the colors themselves are accidental (determined by obscure captchas only the Inglip historians remember) and not necessarily connected to their "standard psychological" meaning. [[http://imgur.com/HAfMQL2 Not even mentioning Oxallos usual pranks.]]
31* ComboPlatterPowers: Inglip has immense power, and considers itself capable of doing anything...except [[http://imgur.com/NPlGO healing tuna]].
32* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: If Inglip breaks from the usual cavalcade of straightforward bodily harm to traitors, it's usually [[http://i51.tinypic.com/10or3mc.png something]]...[[http://i.imgur.com/5vXvi.png very]] [[http://i.imgur.com/0hOX2.jpg very]] (warning: kinda {{NSFW}}) [[http://i.imgur.com/nO9fc.jpg creative]].
33* ContinuityNod: In spades, especially to legendary comics like the "Pailbat" one.
34* {{Cult}}: The Dectrip Faith, the adherents of which are called gropagas.
35* CuteBruiser: The [[http://www.prguitarman.com/comics/343_Nyanja.gif Nyanja.]]
36* CutAndPasteComic: Oh so much. Especially the Gropagas are 99% recycled. Can result in IdenticalPanelGag e.g. [[http://imgur.com/DMu4xxo here]].
37* DeathByIrony: Shaskel [[https://imgur.com/p7uc6 does this]] to a Gropaga who was willing to betray Inglip for money.
38* DrosteImage: Prodlly loves them. Here is even a [[http://imgur.com/jLeYr5w subversion.]]
39* EarthShatteringKaboom: One of Shaskel's [[http://imgur.com/Unsw3F3 plans]]
40* EldritchAbomination: Probably one itself, but it also commands a number of them, including [[http://www.reddit.com/tb/f0o6z the Lervidan]].
41** Special mention also has to go to [[http://i.imgur.com/IbQDj.jpg DL'GOKN]], who seems to drive its followers into suicidal frenzies that turn them into [[ActionBomb reality-warping bombs]].
42** Inglip also seems to be a benevolent example, often joking with its human cultists, and is trying to prevent TheEndOFTheWorldAsWeKnowIt (See Well-Intentioned Extremist below)
43* [[EldritchAbomination Eldritch Abominations]] [[VillainsOutShopping Out Shopping]]: A major source of its appeal, which takes the edge off of its EvilOverlord tendencies. Inglip often shares [[http://i.imgur.com/FoYSo.png details]] of its [[http://i.imgur.com/C4lZh.png day-to-day life]], and seems [[http://i.imgur.com/IQDwQ.png rather]] [[http://i.imgur.com/79sMr.jpg pleasant]] when it's not giving commands or dealing with dissent.
44* EmbarrassingFirstName: [[http://i.imgur.com/ZKXya.jpg Call it Inglinf at your own risk.]]
45* EmotionEater: ...[[http://i.imgur.com/Sj14a.jpg Maybe]]?
46* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: Unlike most cosmic horrors, this is something Lord Inglip is trying to ''[[http://i.imgur.com/j7AHY.png prevent]]''. According to its word, one of the signs of the end-times would be, interestingly enough, [[UsefulNotes/SarahPalin Palin]] [[http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110111215744/inglipnomicon/images/9/99/Palin.png University]].
47* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Inglip's wife, [[http://www.reddit.com/tb/f0dwg Queen Ellinus]] and [[http://www.reddit.com/r/Inglip/comments/ezr5l/the_inglipnomicon/ the rest of its family]].
48* EvenTheSubtitlerIsStumped: [[http://i.imgur.com/u6N5f.jpg Sometimes]].
49* EverybodyHatesMathematics: Justified, since Oxallo, God of Math&Trolling, is Inglip's worst enemy...OK, in fact he is just a [[http://imgur.com/woGAjAk nuisance.]]
50* EvilOverlord: Inglip is also the ruler of its own country called [[http://www.reddit.com/tb/ezlck Trathira]] which tend to have a habit of [[http://www.reddit.com/tb/ezphh conquering places]].
51* EvilVsEvil: DL'GOKN, Shaskel, Leanex, and Conohned are all openly evil, Chydrego and Rogydah pretend to be good but have sinister motives, Inglip apparently has good motives but incredibly evil and brutal methods, and Oxallo just likes messing with the others. Of all of the major gods, none of them can truly be said to be 'good'.
52* ExtremeOmnisexual: The Dark Lord Inglip has expressed interest in [[LipstickLesbian feminine lesbians]], a "man-knot", and stocking his harem with "[[ILoveTheDead the nonalive]]."
53* {{Foreshadowing}}: Once considered an empty threat, Chydrego's promise of the [[http://i.imgur.com/nLhG2.png Inglipse]] was, for a time, quite real, thanks to the outcome of the [[http://i.imgur.com/tXL9r.jpg Great Battle of Trathira]].
54* FromNobodyToNightmare: One proposed [[http://i.imgur.com/AWJUh.jpg origin]] of Shaskel. However [[http://imgur.com/WjYjm she denies it]].
55* AGodAmI: Prodlly is now [[http://imgur.com/MmpqGb1 Lord Pprodev.]] Promptly {{DrivenToSuicide}} ensues.
56* GoMadFromTheRevelation: Happened to a [[http://imgur.com/IRxlU Gropaga]] who asked too much about Shaskel
57* GorgeousGorgon: [[http://imgur.com/MKEyxmS Undealn]], who seduced Inglip himself. [[DeathByChildbirth Bad Idea.]]
58* HighClassGlass: [[http://i.imgur.com/rtePx.png nSIfo]] is a very polite greeting.
59* HumongousMecha: The Mantank and the [[http://i.imgur.com/JoZU0.png Grigan]].
60* IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: Rogydah, a minor CAPTCHA goddess, [[https://imgur.com/XUYt4k9 is fond of this method of persuasion]] (slightly NSFW)
61* IKnowYouKnowIKnow: [[http://imgur.com/LxuXjCR Inglip thought one loop further than Chydrego.]]
62* ILoveTheDead:
63-->'''Follower''': [[http://i.imgur.com/sQGgD.png MASTER, WITH WHOM SHALL WE STOCK THINE HAREM?]]
64-->'''Inglip''': [[AC:the Nonalive]]
65* ImprobableWeaponUser: Aside from the seven falchions, gropagas have been commanded to use the trident-like [[http://i.imgur.com/xNRpZ.jpg sclivel]] and the [[http://www.ahajokes.com/funnypics/assets/uploads/fd4efbd3cb7fd43de5ad510f5cc830ab.jpg pailbat]].
66* JumpedAtTheCall: [[http://i.imgur.com/0mChC.jpg Poor Estitedo...]]
67* KatanasAreJustBetter: Averted. It prefers [[http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110112231016/inglipnomicon/images/3/31/Falchions.png falchions]]. Seven of them to be precise.
68* KillSat: The [[http://i.imgur.com/q1Gv5.png Beam Scumany]].
69* LameRhymeDodge: Shaskel [[https://i.imgur.com/vb2UCpd.jpg doesn't fall for it]].
70* LaserBlade: The newest weapon in the Grisidly Army's arsenal: [[http://imgur.com/0FlAA the Xandit Lightsabers]]!
71* LightIsNotGood:
72** Chydrego is a god of light, but relies on brainwashing and mind control to gain followers.
73** In a (clothume) sense, also DL'GOKN, who is the most evil god of the Inglipverse (he wants to destroy the whole universe). His followers wear white. Likewise, ''DarkIsNotEvil'' for Lord Conohneds followers could be claimed (he's called the Angel of Death, but that's mostly all mouth - his smite count doesn't come close to that of Inglip).
74* LipstickLesbian: saffica necessary. Also Shaskel and Queen Buribulg.
75* ManlyTears: [[http://i.imgur.com/OQW5c.jpg For Garkee.]]
76* MixAndMatchCritters: The gropagas have a [[http://i.imgur.com/EbZND.jpg genetic engineering facility]] which most of the creatures it produces are amalgamations of different animal parts and some odd ones like a living tea pack with [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Pikachu]] appendages.
77* TheMultiverse: [[http://i.imgur.com/zPrsO.gif Over a hundred realities.]]
78* MundaneUtility: The ability to possess people comes in handy when [[http://i.imgur.com/Nv7DS.jpg signing for packages]].
79* MushroomSamba: Apparently [[http://i.imgur.com/cMkeV.png "cracke"]] (not to be confused with crack) has this effect. Or [[http://imgur.com/JQqTbBh Aemajec acid]] (not to be confused with LSD).
80* MustacheVandalism: Prodlly [[http://imgur.com/IuzVzdS did this]] "because he needed a new entry for Website/TVTropes". Sooo meta.
81* {{Ninja}}: Lord Inglip has a personal squad of elite ninjas, the [[http://imgur.com/ab776 Fujin Edersix]].
82* NoPeriodsPeriod: [[http://imgur.com/8eLexJr Averted.]] Eldritch Abominations are no sissies. (The Gropaga, on the other hand, looks very {{Squick}}-ed.)
83* OverlyLongGag: You would expect that captcha gibberish couldn't be milked for a repeating gag? [[http://imgur.com/zJH2HxB Prodlly]] [[http://imgur.com/ls3W7rX thinks]] [[http://imgur.com/YeFqZTB otherwise.]] (Those were "Ent" gags #11, 12 and 13 and he begins to lampshade them...)
84** [[http://imgur.com/snxxiVD Inglip help us all, now it's getting completely self-ref!]]
85* PardonMyKlingon: [[http://i.imgur.com/0e1ip.jpg Scrompla you]], [[http://i.imgur.com/pglDa.gif blesag!]]
86* PianoDrop: [[http://imgur.com/seBDLC8 What use could anybody have for 25 cm pianos?]]
87* ThePowerOfRock: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IN3yPEJD_-Q Improves morale]]!
88* OmnicidalManiac: DL'GOKN and his followers are dedicated to destroying the universe and killing everyone and everything, including themselves.
89* {{Omniglot}}: Inglip has made proclamations in [[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/inglipnomicon/images/a/a9/Tutlent.png Belgian]], [[http://imgur.com/nlKhe Tagalog]], Italian, Spanish, and English, none of which are its native language, Plasper.
90* RankScalesWithAsskicking: Despite its fearsome army, Inglip needs no one to [[http://i.imgur.com/rty9U.jpg defend itself]].
91* RedOniBlueOni: Inglip and Chydrego are both [[EldritchAbomination eldritch abominations]] who command mortals to do their bidding through captchas. Inglip prefers [[http://www.reddit.com/tb/fawfg direct confrontation]] and brute force while Chydrego prefers trickery and [[http://www.reddit.com/tb/f9tag mind control]].
92* RedWireBlueWire: [[http://imgur.com/LP3n8r0 Subverted, since Prodlly is naturally a fan of TVTropes.]]
93* ReligionOfEvil: [[http://i.imgur.com/0ifLs.png Quite possibly.]]
94* RuleOfCool: The Saga of [[http://www.geekosystem.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/radjump1.jpg Rad]][[http://i.imgur.com/6ktUb.jpg jumps]].
95* RuleThirtyFour: Lord Inglip's a fan, apparently. Justified (even rule34 ''of'' Inglip) by ontological-syllogistic reasons [[InsaneTrollLogic (i.e. if there's no porn of it, it doesn't exist)]].
96* {{Squick}}: [[http://i.imgur.com/GScdG.jpg Apparently even Inglip has its limits.]] [[invoked]]
97* SamusIsAGirl: Shaskel, Inglip's greatest enemy (and the only one supposedly capable of defeating him) was believed to be male for the longest time, until Inglip told a Gropaga to "take heed, lest '''she''' triumph". However, ultimately it affected little other than what pronouns and titles were used to refer to her (Such as "Dark Lady" instead of "Dark Lord").
98* SelfReferentialHumor: [[http://i.imgur.com/GTSw8.jpg Mind blown...rebooting...]]
99* {{Smurfing}}: [[http://imgur.com/DgzXUw7 Beeing.]]
100* SuperPrototype: The Sclivel is based on the trident given to Inglip's son Lakorta, although it's much less powerful due to its mass produced nature.
101* TakeThat: [[http://i.imgur.com/Hf9Ei.jpg Against]] WebOriginal/{{Zalgo}}.
102* {{Troll}}: Apparently, Inglip is not above taking [[http://i.imgur.com/a6oFr.jpg potshots]] at its [[http://i.imgur.com/OeEjm.png minions]]. Or [[http://i.imgur.com/8pErn.jpg other people]], for that matter. [[http://www.reddit.com/r/Inglip/comments/fer1k/the_truth_about_chydrego/ Chydrego and his followers]] also live for this purpose. And of course [[http://www.reddit.com/r/Oxallo/ Prodlly]], a one-troll army.
103* TalkLikeAPirate: Leanex (anotherrr rrrandom dude frrrom the pantheon) followerrrs are pirrrate-themed. Degrrree varrries, sometimes to [[http://imgur.com/OQ9LERS exaggerrrated trrrope.]]
104* TricksterGod: Oxallo, who lives for this. Several of the other gods such as Chydrego, Shaskel, and even Inglip himself are known to indulge in a bit of occasional trolling now and then as well.
105* UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny: [[http://i.imgur.com/tXL9r.jpg The Great Battle of Trathira]] ended up pruning many of the captcha deities that had been cropping up.
106* WasOnceAMan: Possibly, depending on how you interpret Inglip once being [[UsefulNotes/WarsOfTheRoses Henry the Sixth]].
107* WellIntentionedExtremist: As mentioned above, Inglip is trying to [[http://i.imgur.com/Sq5yR.jpg prevent the end-times]]. Its expansionism and accumulation of people and materiel is likely an effort towards this end. It also works toward Locisi, [[http://i.imgur.com/oA76R.jpg a time where all can coexist in peace and harmony]].
108* AWizardDidIt: [[http://imgur.com/DgzXUw7 Prodlly lampshades his infinite trolling powers.]]
109* XanatosGambit: Chydrego pulled a masterful one [[http://i.imgur.com/tXL9r.jpg here]]. No matter who won, he was poised to pick up the pieces, and was, for a time, once more the second-greatest threat to the Dark Lord, next to the savage Shaskel.
110* ZombieApocalypse: A source of troops for Inglip's [[http://inglipnomicon.wikia.com/wiki/Grisidly_Army army]], along with sharks. And gay ghosts. And Tom Selleck clones.
