Badass Mustache and Badass Beard are being merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with masculinity in some way. Please read the trope description before readding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassBeard: Atypically for a drow, K'thriss sports a neat full beard. As for the badass part, the fact that he survived [=AcqInc=]'s old intern testing facility (which allegedly incinerated hundreds of his fellow applicants) speaks for itself. Except, he didn't. Viari stabbed him in the back. He's since become more badass, however.
