History Characters / CaptainSNES

** Very much so in the non-canon omakes, where he's responsible for the atomized murder of at least 25 people via [[{{BFG}} plasma cannon]], including but not limited to [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]], VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog, [[Series/TheWeakestLink Anne Robinson]]...and Creator/ErnestHemingway. One wonders if it's begun to stray toward [[CrossingTheLineTwice Crossing The Line Three Times]] or so, by now.

* [[spoiler: TheChessmaster: His way of telling stories was just a ruse. All of it (except the parts where he's being a contrary dick to spite his captor, that's just a bonus). The all over the place narration. The unnecessary build up. The fricken cat (sorta), all of them was part of his ruse. A ruse to garner C-waves so he can get back to full power! Hats off to you Mr. Williams.]]

* {{Jerkass}}

* [[MasterOfDisguise Master of]] PaperThinDisguise: He becomes one after being taught the "Niht Repap" technique by King Hippo.

*** Not long after that, Dr. Light states a strong desire to wash that boy's mouth out, with Wily at first mistaking it for "wishing to blow up the Gamemaster for having a potty mouth"...
* TimeStandsStill: A power he inherited from the previous Game Master, via the game controller

* [[WalkingShirtlessScene Walking Pantsless Scene]]: He spent nine years of the comic's run (i.e. more or less a day in-universe) parading around without pants. This finally got remedied by Protoman [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/07/09/694-wherein-protoman-becomes-everyones-favorite-character/ in episode 694]].

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Despite Magus' complaints and his own actions, Mario knows the nature of Videoland quite thoroughly, is quite dangerous to anyone not enforcing their local reality on him, to the point where even Vegeta refers to him as The Great One. [[PowerLevels He is rated 9 on the threat scale]], the only characters above him are Daos (who's 9.5), and the ''Sovereign of Sorrow herself.'' To put this in perspective, the only other threat level 9 character shown so far was an insane end-boss god-being that was tearing Nexus apart block-by-block.
** Speaking of the Sovereign, before the Great Change, when she was tearing Videoland apart piece by piece? Her rampage was temporarily ''stopped'' at the Mushroom Kingdom, giving Captain N and his friends time to prepare for her arrival at the Palace of Power. And this was after the Sovereign was destroying ''entire worlds'' in mere ''seconds''. She wasn't even able to ''destroy'' the Mushroom Kingdom, either, she ''left'', and stopped destroying worlds after that. Not only did Mario singlehandedly fight her to a standstill, ''he delayed her for so long'' to the point where she not only had to break off the fight, she no longer had time to waste on destroying everything in her path.

* ActionGirl

** BroughtDownToBadass: After losing her PoweredArmor, she jury-rigs an ArmCannon and gives Golbez enough of a fight to earn his respect.

* ShockAndAwe

* LawfulGood: As mentioned in-universe [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2002/05/15/114-fringe-benefit-of-being-a-hero/ here]].
* ThePaladin

* KnightInSourArmor

* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism: Very much on the cynical end.

* BadassAdorable: The TropeNamer
** He defeats Amon with one a single punch.

* SharingABody / SplitPersonality: In the Captain SNES universe the original Mega Man and the Mega Man from ''Captain N'' may be two separate entities. More specifically, Green Mega Man [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2009/03/24/578-how-soon-we-forget/ is a program created by Dr Wright]] that may be only sharing a body with the original Mega Man. However, the relation between them isn't entirely clear - Mega Man insists that they are not the same being, while Green Mega Man [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2009/06/02/580-meaning-of-the-words/ wants to make him admit they are]].

* ImmuneToFate: Maybe.

* AntiHero: Just see [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2002/10/22/215-the-hammer-of-zen/ his initial plan how to deal with Bowser]].
* BlackMagic

* SinisterScythe

* [[WorfHadTheFlu Worf Has The Flu]]: The reason Vegeta doesn't swoop in and kick Daos' ass is because he's got hypertension and can no longer fight.

* ButtMonkey

* BigBad
* TheChessmaster

* EldritchAbomination: Whatever the Sovereign is... she's a powerful super being from god knows where and is intent on destroying the universe. And considering how an aspect of her is able to shrug off the blasts of no less than three godlike entities without noticing as well as warp reality to her benefit, she seems capable of doing so.
** Flashbacks to when she was at full power make this even more clear. At that time, she was able to annihilate entire game worlds with little effort, if any.

* TheHeartless: And all those Touched by her.
* OmnicidalManiac

* VisionaryVillain / WellIntentionedExtremist: Or at least she claims to be this [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2003/04/29/325-the-shard-of-tears/ in her conversation with Magus]]. Apparently she doesn't want to destroy the Videoland simply ForTheEvulz; she considers the lives of its inhabitants to be full of pain and she wants to [[MercyKill free them from their suffering by killing them]].

* BunnyEarsLawyer[=/=]ObfuscatingStupidity: He's either putting on an act to get people to underestimate him, or he using his annoying, hyperactive personality to put people off. But he's pretty damn dangerous given his access to the environment systems.

* GoneHorriblyWrong: His attempt to MindProbe Samus not only has her breaking him, but she also plants a telepathic suggestion that eventually makes him break her out.

* MindProbe: Attempts this on Samus. It backfires. ''Horribly''.
** He tries this again on Golbez. It backfires slightly less horribly.

* [[spoiler:SharingABody: As a result of snatching a body of yet-unknown [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2013/05/10/820-the-layers-peeled-away/ Touched]] [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2013/05/22/821-a-purple-predicament/ someone]], who not only survived it but also was able to reclaim the control of the body.]]

* TheFightingNarcissist

* {{Physical God}}s

* DeadpanSnarker

** CryingWolf: The fourth time there really was a naked Alanis Morissette behind him.

* InnocentFanserviceGirl: She's naked. A lot.
** Although, judging from [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2003/01/18/264-censorship-isnt-all-bad-2/ this comic]], it's more a case of Innocent FanDisservice Girl.

* CosmicRetcon / ResetButton: She traveled in time and succeeded [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2002/08/13/175-embers-of-fire-part-2/ in preventing the accident that crippled her mother]]... but by doing so she retconned all of the CharacterDevelopment she and her parents underwent after this accident in the original timeline. As result of this, Lucca's become... [[MadScientist a bit]] [[{{Yandere}} eccentric]].

* GadgeteerGenius or MadScientist
* HeroicComedicSociopath

* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Of Crono.

* KillAllHumans: Maybe except Lucca.

* [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity Druggies VS Non-Druggies Insanity]]: He divides the world into people who taken part in drug related activities, and those who haven't. The former all need to die for the sake of the latter.

* BlackMagicianGirl

* DeadpanSnarker
* FallenHero

* SummonMagic

* FallenHero

* TheresNoKillLikeOverkill: [[spoiler:Put 99x Packages into one of three unique colored treasure chests knowing that the Game Master will open them. The resulting explosion was so powerful it not only completely destroyed Castle Baron and the city, it also launched Gato and countless treasure chests into the stratosphere. Averted due to the explosion failing to kill Alex.]]

* UnEvilLaugh: He just [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2002/06/26/153-the-drab-lord-appears/ can't get evil laugh right]].

** [[spoiler:That is, until he stops playing around.]]
* [[spoiler: VillainForgotToLevelGrind: Due to Alex playing FFIV and ordering Cecil to kill Spoony every time he was alive in a random encounter, the only EXP Spoony obtained was in his only mandatory story battle, otherwise he remains at the same level that he joined the party in the game. As a result, he can't even touch Cecil, since Alex level grinded him to [=Lv99=].]]

* MissedTheCall: Possibly.

* TheRival: To Alex.
* TheVoice
* TheWatson: Again, to Alex.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: Alex at least seems confident that they knew each other and were friends (though apparently of VitriolicBestBuds variety) before they got sucked into Videoland.

** However, the conversation they had after the exchange quoted above indicates that Alex's captor and the Ryan whom Alex knew may not necessarily be the same person. [[MindScrew Or maybe they are. At this point it's hard to tell.]]

* BeleagueredAssistant: Ended up being this for Mike Haggar.

* KickedUpstairs / BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Sure, he is vice-president of Videoland... but the president is PopularIsDumb [[VideoGame/FinalFight Mike Haggar]], who even abolished every tax in Videoland and transformed the presidential palace in a motel to earn the governmental budget. As of Wily's most recent estimates, they're only $99 billion dollars in the red. Wily has to spend all his time trying to minimize the damage caused by Haggar's decisions.

** He can't try to quit or overrule Haggar, or Proto Man/Blues will take that as proof that he's a PresidentEvil and kidnap him so he can force him to [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment listen to Garth Brooks]].
* MadScientist: Duh.
* [[UglyGuyHotWife Ugly Guy, Hot Girlfriend]]: Apparently he's dating Franchise/CarmenSandiego.

* TheAlcoholic

* [[MistakenForMurderer Mistaken For Rapist]]: By Alex [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/03/02/642-encroachment-of-true-horror/ when they first met]]. King Hippo really only wanted [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/04/29/666-the-nature-of-the-beast/ to keep Alex from slipping on dropped soap]] and later he just [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/05/02/667-master-nostalgia/ got a little excited]] after learning that Alex is the Game Master. Alex, however, thought Hippo had [[PrisonRape something else in mind]].
* PunchClockVillain: He was working for Mother Brain not because he wanted to take over Videoland or anything, but because it paid the bills. Despite being beaten up and humiliated time after time again by Captain N, King Hippo never held anything against him (he actually respected and admired him), and is rather grateful that Captain N didn't either.
** He eventually stopped working for Mother Brain. After that we never saw him doing anything more evil than [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2003/06/28/357-true-evil-never-dies/ bullying other characters for their lunch money]]. Seeing [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/05/30/679-my-what-big-teeth/ how he helped Alex and wished him good luck]], it's not unimaginable that he'll end up on the heroes' side.

** CerebusRetcon: The form her CosmicRetcon power usually takes. She can't directly alter events observed by the player, but she ''can'' easily infuse them with new meaning to create logical consequences for actions, or to [[HappyEndingOverride cause "realistic" fallout for maximum angst that draws her Touched deeper into her thrall]]. [[spoiler: Such as making Lucca saving her mother from a terrible accident the source of her broken family.]]

* OddFriendship: He's legitimately friends with Vegeta, much to Mario's surprise (that ''anyone'' would be his friend).

* TheUnfettered: Magus is willing to do anything ([[http://www.captainsnes.com/2002/10/26/219-the-ways-of-the-mushroom/ except jumping on his opponents' heads]]) to find and save Schala. He even offered to find the Shard of Tears for the Sovereign of Sorrow in exchange for information, [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2003/04/29/325-the-shard-of-tears/ stating that he didn't care what she would do to the Videoland afterwards.]]

* HypocriticalHumor: When explaining how his armor works, he boasts his world is more sensible and things from it and not Mario's surreal world can hurt. When explaining the things that can hurt, it becomes clear Max's own game is equally surreal, and to top it all off one of his enemies has hit him with '''drug filled needless''', which Mario assumes is the reason for Max Force's current insanity.

'''Alex Williams'''

-->"Sweet Christmas, that's stupid fresh!"

* NoHeroToHisValet: VideoGame/MegaMan thinks he's a complete flake. He's wrong, but you can see where he's coming from.

** [[spoiler: That said, his instance of NoOneCouldSurviveThat falls uner WrongGenreSavvy, since as Kain pointed out, Cid and Yang survived similar experiences.]]

* ComicallySerious: They are serious v illains , who are caught in very silly situations. Hilarity ensues.

* KatanasAreJustBetter

* BrainwashedAndCrazy

* [[spoiler:DeaderThanDead: Daos and Gades, suggested by WordOfGod.]]

* [[spoiler:KarmicDeath: Daos and Gades die feeling for the first time the same feeling they tried to bring upon countless innocent people: terror.]]

* [[BlackAndWhiteInsanity Druggies VS Non-Druggies Insanity]]

* [[spoiler: TheChessmaster: Is revealed to be this in the antlion's cave with Cecil. Beforehand, he had been a DiscOneFinalBoss who had suffered severe VillainDecay, culminating with a seemingly cartoonish plot to lure [[ThePaladin Cecil]] into a trap, using Rosa as bait, [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2003/09/13/387-motivations-revelation-part-3/ but then...]] [[SarcasmMode Spoony bard indeed.]]]]

* [[spoiler: TheresNoKillLikeOverkill: Put 99x Packages into one of three unique colored treasure chests knowing that the Game Master will open them. The resulting explosion was so powerful it not only completely destroyed Castle Baron and the city, it also launched Gato and countless treasure chests into the stratosphere. Averted due to the explosion failing to kill Alex.]]

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Even though it ultimately didn't work, one has to admit that sending Max Force against Mario was actually a pretty clever idea. [[spoiler:There's also his fight with Magus, where it looks like he's TemptingFate and [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2018/10/26/915-tougher-than-the-toughies/ causing his own undoing]], only to make [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2018/12/21/916-and-smarter-than-the-smarties/ an epic comeback]]. Then effortlessly manipulates Mario and the Ninja Turtles into fighting one another with expert timing.]] As much as he fails, he usually fights ''[[TheAce Mario]]'' and always manages to put up a fight.

* [[TrollingCreator Trolling Narrator]]: At least from Ryan's perspective, Alex is constantly this in-universe. Quite a few times during his narration he alluded to secrets that, if revealed, would clarify what exactly was going on, only to make Ryan [[FigureItOutYourself figure them out himself]] when questioned about them. He also decided to interrupt his narration of Kain's fight with Schrödinger to move on to something else [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2003/11/08/411-bait-and-switch/ despite Ryan's loud protestations]]. And finally, he [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/04/06/657-roll-to-dodge/ ignored Ryan]] asking him to reveal what had happened to Magus and Mario, and later actually moved on to the subject of the Mushroom Kingdom... only to [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2012/05/11/774-with-apologies/ once again]] talk about something other than Mario's and Magus's exploits.
