1''[[http://ttrroleplay.forumotion.com/forum Ten Thousand Rads]]'' is an extremely small [[PlayByPostGames Play-by-Post]] Roleplay site, run primarily by a small but dedicated group of members who mostly know each other in real life.
2
3The site is incredibly informal and contains a small number of amusing roleplays, most of which are based off of pre-existing franchises.
4----
5!!''TTR'' roleplays contains examples of:
6[[index]]
7* ''Roleplay/ParadigmShift''
8* ''Roleplay/PokemonLavender''
9* ''Roleplay/SkyrimPointFive''
10* ''Roleplay/StarWarsKnightsOfTheNewRepublic''

16%%* MadeOfPlasticine: RED Fem!Scout managed to smash RED Sniper's head in with a Ghastly Gibus. Somehow.
17%%[[/folder]]
18
19[[folder:The Basics]]
20%%* AlternateHistory: Yet another one; the genre is quite common on the site.
21* {{Crossover}}: With ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'', though the GameMaster is working hard to keep it from overpowering the setting.
22* HistoricalFantasy: It was stressed that magic could become useful. It was largely ignored until a village in southern Norway was incinerated, apparently by magic.
23* PosthumousCollaboration: Scotsman took the RP over after Gaara left the site.
24[[/folder]]
25
26[[folder:The Changed World]]
27* ArcWelding: It balances the ongoing MCU (and to a lesser extent the other two as well) with the roleplay's original plotline.
28* {{Crossover}}: Between the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse, ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'', and ''Film/ManOfSteel''.
29* CurbStompBattle: Wolverine's attempt to fight off the entire Thunderbolts team at once ended this way. PopularityPower be damned!
30%%* {{Keet}}: Nightcrawler leans towards this.
31* NoIndoorVoice: Spidey's dialogue and actions are typed out in CAPS LOCK.
32* PaperTiger: The Hulk, as the Thunderbolts manage to take him down in less than a page.
33* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Helsie accidentally wrote that Wolverine was carrying a bear when he meant beer. Hilariously, none of the others even batted an eye, seeing it as perfectly in character for Logan to walk into class with a bear over his shoulder.
34* SuperRegistrationAct: The SHARA (the Superhuman Administration and Regulation Act), which is based off of the SHRA of ''ComicBook/{{Civil War|2006}}'' infamy.
35[[/folder]]
36
37%%[[folder:Colonize & Conquer series]]
38%%* AlternateHistory: The entire point.
39%%* AnachronismStew: Not terribly so, since the series attempts to maintain ''some'' credibility, but as Mycro put it regarding the second thread:
40%%-->'''Mycro:''' NOBODY EXPECTS THE AZTEC INQUISITION!
41%%* TheCaligula: A frequent in-universe explanation for the insanity that results from putting high school- and college-aged students in charge of entire countries.
42%%* TheFederation: Quite a few countries aspire towards this, sometimes in borderline nonsensical ways.
43%%* LaResistance: Happens seldomly.
44%%[[/folder]]
45
46[[folder:Dark Days of Albion]]
47* BewareTheNiceOnes: Elvia after the Black Knight takes down Drostan. She stabbed him ''in the face.''
48* BoisterousBruiser: Drostan's a LargeHam and a large man.
49%%* {{Expospeak}}: Merlin does this whilst recruiting Drostan.
50%%* FunetikAksent: Drostan.
51* NamedWeapons: Drostan's sword Fionnghal.
52%%* PlayingWithFire: Phoenix.
53[[/folder]]

55[[folder:De Camino Et Virtus Bellorum]]
56* TheAgeless: In this -verse, magic ability equals "perpetuality." As such, characters like Hercules and Elsa will never grow old and die. Of course, characters like Jafar, Merlin and Maleficent fall into this by default.
57* CanisLatinicus: The title was created by fabricating various anime-title-esque names and running them through Google Translate. Apparently [=DCeVB=] translates to "Furnace of Power and War!"
58* TheExile: Elsa. Lampshaded in-universe, where she's known as Elsa the Exile.
59%%* ImmortalityBeginsAtTwenty
60* MinionWithAnFInEvil: The Jotun aren't a terribly big threat, [[spoiler: even without Hercules being on the heroes' side]]. Justified in that Elsa created them to scare people away, not to actually hurt them. It's actually a bit sad to watch them struggle to deal with people who simply aren't scared by them.
61%%** Possibly averted with the Beastmaster.
62* PointOfDivergence: Aside from the entire Disneyverse having a bearing on the plot and magic equaling perpetuality, the main plot divergence is simply Olaf not meeting up with Anna and Kristoff during the events of ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013''. Without him, they never find Elsa, who remains isolated, and Anna and Hans marry back in Arendelle.

74* BadassIsraeli: Jaron is the son of a death god and has military training from his time in the IDF.
75* KillItWithFire: Raizo's standard attack, as a sun demigod.
76* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Krista has this ability, capable of transforming into seemingly any animal. She seems to prefer partial transformations, though.

85[[folder:Left 4 Dead 4]]
86* AnnoyingArrows: Zig-Zagged. Jason's arrows were perfectly capable of killing a zombie, but unless they bled out or took an arrow right in the head the zombies [[FeelNoPain didn't notice]] and were more than willing to keep attacking.
87* AnyoneCanDie: Partly because of a decision partway through the RP to use actual characters from the game, but so far [[spoiler:Jason, Roma, Mathias, Gus and Sam]] have died.
88* BodyHorror: [[spoiler:Roma]] turning into a Spitter. His tongue liquefied and dribbled out of his mouth.
89* ChainsawGood: Gus' weapon. Justified in that he's a lumberjack.
90%%* CrazyPrepared: Mathias' uncle evidently prepared for this for some time.
91* ImplacableMan: The Infected demonstrably don't feel pain. They're just as easy to kill as normal people, but an injury that would incapacitate a human (such as an arrow through the shoulder) won't slow them down any more than the actual physical damage.
92* LeeroyJenkins: The entirety of the Common Infected. They ran through a chainsaw blade trying to kill Gus.
93%%* MauveShirt: [[spoiler:Roma.]]
94* SelectiveObliviousness: Gus doesn't believe in zombies. Never mind that a bunch of them literally impaled themselves on a chainsaw to try and eat his face. They were just normal people.
95* TemptingFate: The following quote:
96-->'''99luftballons:''' Gus went and got his chainsaw in case things got nasty.\
97'''[[GameMaster Mycrodeeth]]:''' [[OhCrap Nasty at fifty yards and closing]]. ''[cue zombie swarm]''
98%%* ZombieApocalypse: ''Obviously.''

101%%[[folder:Magic and War (HPRP)]]
102%%* CrashIntoHello: Lil and Gene meet this way, while Lil is attempting catch a runaway Nachash.
103%%* FeatherBoaConstrictor: Nachash's usual position.
104%%* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler: Carter. In midair, too.]]
105%%* WizardingSchool: Being based off of ''Literature/HarryPotter'', this is kinda obvious.

113%%* CrapsackWorld: Team Rocket has taken over the entire Johto region. It's implied that Hoenn suffered the same fate.
114%%* DarkerAndEdgier: Not anywhere near as much as Lavender but it's there.
115%%* TookALevelInBadass: The entirety of Team Rocket.

118%%[[folder:Reign of Immortals]]
119%%* ShoutOut: Yasuo's talkative attire is based on [[Anime/KillLaKill Senketsu]].
120%%[[/folder]]
121
122[[folder:Ring of Fire]]
123* AdaptationalBadass: Mutavore put up one hell of a fight against the Jaegers at the beginning. Somewhat justified in that [[TheAce Striker Eureka]] wasn't around to serve it it's own titanic ass at the time.
124* AutobotsRockOut: During the Harbinger fight [[spoiler:after losing two Jaegers in a row (including their most powerful)]], the Shatterdome gives the Rangers a morale booster: ''Music/{{Queen}}'s'' "We Will Rock You". The general sentiment afterward:
125-->From Los Angeles with love, ''[[PrecisionFStrike mother&^%$er]]''!
126* EpicFail: Titan Atlas attempted to climb atop the Wall to jump on a kaiju. The Wall didn't support it, leading to Atlas randomly destroying a section of wall and falling on its back in the water.
127* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Striker Eureka and Shadow Fang.]]
128* OhCrap: When [[spoiler:Harbinger kills Striker Eureka immediately.]]
129* ReformedCriminal: Iron Storm's Jaeger pilots are reformed criminals.
130%%* TheWorfEffect: [[spoiler:The Hansens' death at the jaws of Harbinger.]]
131[[/folder]]

133[[folder:Storm the Castle]]
134* BerserkButton: Insult Felix' Cloak Goddess at your peril.
135* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Felix, as is only appropriate given [[WebVideo/PewDiePie who he's based on]]. The man is starting a religion based on a cloak falling out of the sky.
136* ContinuityNod: Elsa's cloak that blew away during "Let It Go" landed on Lydia's head early in the RP.
137* {{Expy}}: Felix is outright stated to basically be [=PewDiePie=] if the latter were rendered in the ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'' style of animation.

144* AffectionateNickname: The group of Danish assassins in T&T3 are known as "The Dane Train."
145* ArmorAndMagicDontMix: In the third roleplay armor is the most common answer to powerful magic-users, because mithril acts as metallic antimagic.
146* ByTheBookCop: David in both T&T2 and T&T3. The man practically worships the book.
147%%* CombatTentacles: Mira in T&T3
148* {{Determinator}}: David again. In T&T2 he chased a group of escapees well outside his jurisdiction. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking One of whom was a tax dodger.]]
149%%* DirtyCoward: Julios. Kind of odd considering he is a Spartan.
150%%* DishingOutDirt: Ida in T&T3.
151* KnightTemplar: David from the latter two T&T threads. Break a law and he ''will'' throw you in jail.
152%%* LeeroyJenkins: Octavion. He is a Spartan after all.
153* MadGod: Ocmontoc/Okmentok, God of Catapults, is implied to be this.
154* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: The brothers Octavion and Julios in T&T are named after the first of the Roman Caesars.
155%%* PlayingWithFire: Smoldar in T&T3.
156[[/folder]]
157
158[[folder:Unholy Intervention]]
159* BewareTheSillyOnes: To the canon ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' characters, Jeff is primarily known for not ''ever'' giving a damn. Then Canus picks a fight with him and he straight up drops the "not a god" act and punts him into deep space.
160* KilledOffForReal: Canus is rendered immune to the effects of gravity by Jeff, hurling him into deep space as Remnant's solar system orbits away out from under him.
161* LetsGetDangerous: Jeff keeps his powers toned down just enough to merely be an exceptionally good fighter... right up until Gehenna shows up and attacks his friends.
162* MisappliedPhlebotinum: The main characters are explicitly gods and functionally omnipotent. What do they use their phenomenal cosmic powers for? To mess with people. Talk about not meeting your full potential.
163* NighInvulnerable: Canus gets to completely negate any force applied to him on a whim. Unfortunately (for him), he still needs to breathe.
164* StoryBreakerPower: Each of the four main characters is completely omnipotent.
165* WhamShot: In-universe. Jeff, ostensibly a first-year student at Beacon Academy (though admittedly an exceptionally strong one), disposes of the third-most-powerful Huntsman on Remnant in less than a minute. Ren is understandably shocked.
166[[/folder]]
167
168[[folder:A World of Dust and Souls]]
169* DeflectorShields: Nisha can create them using her Semblance, Feedback. As the name suggests, they release the energy fed into them in a concussive blast when they've taken enough hits - or when Nisha decides they do.
170* DemolitionsExpert: Tyson is Team SNST's dust specialist, eschewing the normal "magic spell" techniques in favor of making dust-laced explosives. This is helped by his Semblance, Firebrand, which lets him charge an object with explosive power and turn it into a hand grenade.
171* FlyingWeapon: Sterling's Forge ability lets him duplicate and telekinetically control any object he's touching. Usually this is his sword, leading to him fighting in tandem with four more floating blades.
172* GreenThumb: Sienna's Semblance, Flora, allows her to control plants in this manner. Given the prevalence of Aura and bladed weapons, it's more a utility power than a heavy-hitting combat ability at its current level.
173* LetsGetDangerous: Tyson spends the majority of his time at the mercy of his partner's insanity, along with just generally having really terrible luck. Then the White Fang kidnapped Nisha. They did not enjoy the experience.
174* WakeUpCallBoss: When he appears, Ladon [[NoSell no sells]] everything Team SNST can throw at him, taking first Sterling and then Opal out of the fight in one hit each.
