Basic Trope: Characters associated with cold/ice/snow tend to be sympathetic, tragic, and/or emotional characters.

  • Straight: Winter is An Ice Person, and has a Dark and Troubled Past. He acts cold towards others, and often feels lonely.
  • Exaggerated: Every character associated with the cold is tragic/sympathetic in some way.
  • Downplayed: Winter has a few sad aspects of his backstory, which tie into his role as an ice-themed character.
  • Justified:
  • Inverted:
    • Winter is an ice-themed character, but he's also a Keet who always remains happy no matter what.
    • Blaze has fire powers and is a tragic character.
  • Subverted: ???
  • Double Subverted: ???
  • Parodied: ???
  • Zig-Zagged: ???
  • Averted:
    • Nobody has any cold-themed motifs.
    • Winter is ice-themed, but he doesn't have any tragic aspects to him.
  • Enforced: "We should use some Personality Powers with our characters — why don't we have an ice-themed character be the tragic one?"
  • Lampshaded: ???
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: ???
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
