Basic Trope: An amalgamation of awesome traits.
- Straight: Charlie is a werewolf-zombie-vampire.
- Exaggerated:
- Charlie is a werewolf-zombie-vampire-pirate-robot-dragon-cowboy-viking-alien-mermaid-dinosaur-ninja-demon-firefighter-elf-angel-centaur. Don't even ask what he looks like...
- Everyone is some sort of mismatch of amazing traits.
- Downplayed: Mix-and-Match Critters
- Justified:
- Charlie was bitten by a werewolf, a zombie, and a vampire at some points in his life.
- Alternatively, it's hereditary; since his dad is a werewolf-zombie and his mom is a vampire, it's logical that their son would be a combination of those things.
- Inverted: Each character only has one interesting species or occupation. Vampires, werewolves, and zombies exist, but every single pirate, ninja, and cowboy is human.
- Subverted: It turns out that Charlie faked his zombie and vampire traits, and is just a normal werewolf.
- Double Subverted: Then Charlie actually gets bitten by a zombie and a vampire, and becomes a real werewolf-zombie-vampire.
- Parodied: ???
- Zig-Zagged: ???
- Averted: Hybrid-Overkill Avoidance
- Enforced:
- Rule of Cool
- The work called for characters of these species/professions for whatever reason, but wanted to avoid cast bloat, so they made Charlie into a Composite Character.
- Charlie needed to stand out among the other monster characters - why not make him a hybrid of multiple?
- CHrtYopL started as a glitch.
- Lampshaded: "You're a werewolf, zombie and a vampire at the same time? how does that work?"
- Invoked: Charlie lets himself get bitten by the three creatures just to have an awesome trait amalgamation.
- Exploited: Charlie has the abilities of the various species/professions he is, and uses them to his advantage (such as shapeshifting into werewolf form when the situation is required).
- Defied: After turning into a werewolf, he prevents himself from body contact in order to protect himself from having other curses.
- Discussed: ???
- Conversed: "This character must be interesting if they're described as something like a ninja-pirate-zombie-robot."
- Deconstructed: Charlie is a horrific hybrid driven by competing desires for blood, flesh, and brains. He has to be careful around both garlic and wolfsbane, and generally just isn't a well-designed being.
