So you've created a new {{trope}}? Good for you. But how to describe it? You don't want to look like you're favoring your favorite shows [[Administrivia/EntryPimp too much]] do you? Unfortunately you can't just ''explain'' what your new {{trope}} is, you need a clear example in the summary text.

That's where this cast list comes in. On here the tropers of Website/TVTropes create generic characters to use as examples...and [[JustForFun for fun]]. Feel free to add your own characters or edit or add a portrait to an existing one.

Use the following format for cast members;

[Picture (optional)]
* '''Name:''' ''[Character's name]''
* '''Age:''' ''[Age]''
* '''Occupation:''' ''[Do I still need to explain this?]''
* '''History:''' ''[Paragraph or two outlining their origin, citing as many {{trope}}s as possible]''

And now, without further ado...

* ''Name:'' Administrivia/ThisTroper
* ''Age:'' Unknown
* ''Occupation:'' [[TheEveryman Everyman]]
* ''History:'' Administrivia/ThisTroper is one of the dullest people in Troperville. He (or possibly she, no one really ever remembers) just exists to fill out the population.

Previously free to go on about his/her opinions and personal stories on the {{trope}} pages, he now finds him increasingly restricted to TroperTales and discussion pages. Whether this makes him bitter and yearning for revenge is unknown.

* ''Age:'' A few years older than you
* ''Occupation:'' [[TheStoic Freelance Stoic]]
* ''History:'' Hey, here comes Niisama, your [[AloofBigBrother older brother]]! You can always tell it's him by his dramatically billowing [[BadassLongcoat coat]], the designer [[StoicSpectacles glasses]] he likes to affect, his [[TheSpock emotionless, rational]] air, and, of course, his [[{{Bishonen}} pretty, pretty, pretty face]]. Enjoy his company while you can, because [[IneffectualLoner he doesn't have much time for people]] below his standards, which means you. Perhaps if you managed to [[DefeatMeansFriendship defeat]] him in single combat, you could finally win his respect. Maybe he'd even hang out with you and your friends in an [[EnsembleDarkhorse auxiliary]]/[[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] capacity! I wouldn't try it, though. You're probably YearsTooEarly.
