Hiya, I am Bleddyn but I have many names I go by on the interwebz. I am a self admitted 18 year old American Perky Goth guy in Real Life. I love anatomy, biology, animals, and literature. I have a hobby in video games, writing, and roleplay.
Common nicknames for me: Bled, Bleddy (most common), Nyktos, Sylvan, Cheshire, Grue, Nephila
Works that I like from various types of media
- Blue Stahli: Bret has been one of my favorite artists for a long ass time
- Celldweller: Ditto with Scott Klayton
- Pendulum: These guys are how I discovered Blue Stahli and Celldweller
- Three Days Grace: Before I listened to the previous musicians this band along with Disturbed, Avenged Sevenfold, Five Finger Death Punch, Red, and a few other bands were what I listened to
- Voltaire
- The Birthday Massacre: Love this band and it's aesthetic
- Cyberpunk works in general this includes
- Ghost In The Shell: The first Cyberpunk work that I had the pleasure of seeing
- Fisheye Placebo: I absolutely love the art. Also Frey is kind of amusing despite being the leader of a Freedom Fighters group
- Ergo Proxy: Really cool designs in here
- Psycho Pass: Delightfully screwed up futuristic setting that manages to not bore me despite containing cops as the main protags
- Tokyo Ghoul: Kaneki did nothing wrong. That is all
- Attack On Titan: Titans are scary as hell, enough said
- Darker Than Black: Contracters can be pretty cool
- Deadman Wonderland: The main protagonist fights by shooting his own blood like a bullet. And that's not even getting into the rest of the Deadmen (who all have blood powers)
- Horror stuff in general this includes
- Five Nights At Freddys: Bonnie, Toy Bonnie, and Mangle are best animatronics.
- The Thing: This old movie served as one of the inspirations for Dead Space. Of course I would love it!
- Silent Hill: Should not surprise anyone
- The Evil Within: This game is basically Resident Evil and Silent Hill's lovechild
- Cry Of Fear: Really creepy game that proves good graphics means jack if the other components work
- Afraid Of Monsters: A prequel to Cry Of Fear that is just as screwed up
- Especially Dead Space: Necromorphs are very creepy and interesting, enough said
- Resident Evil: Should not surprise anyone
- Bloodborne: The game is absolutely beautiful, the monsters have really cool designs (mix of Lovecraftian and Gothic horror), and it's satisfying to beat the game.
- SOMA and Amnesia The Dark Descent: I love the designs of the monsters. SOMA also had a really cool environmental design
- Aliens: Gave us Xenomorphs
- Sonic The Hedgehog: mainly for being a big part of my childhood. I played the originals (Sonic 1-3) when I was really young and it just went from there.
- Freedom Planet: Delightfully designed game in a original universe that was obviously visually inspired by Sonic The Hedgehog
- Pokemon: Also for being a big part of my childhood
- Super Mario Bros: Was a small part of my childhood. I do remember Super Mario Galaxy, Super Mario World, and a few other titles fondly though
- Superhero works interest me to a certain degree. I like...
- Daredevil
- The Darkness
- City Of Heroes: That MMO was pretty much my game back in the day. Oh how I miss it.
- City Of Titans: A spiritual successor to City Of Heroes that looks pretty good
- Teen Titans: Mainly for being a show that can do both comedy and serious stuff well. Also Raven and Jinx are very attractive
- Young Justice: For being much like Teen Titans pretty much
- Worm: Probably one of the most dark, realistic superhero settings I have had the pleasure of immersing myself into and the author does it right for the most part as well
- Big Hero 6
- Hellsing: One of my first experiences with anime barring Dragonball
- Eversion: This game is both cute and creepy as hell (literally)
- All of the inFamous games: The designs of the powers are too cool to ignore
- Wreck It Ralph: Simply the best video game based movie out there at this very moment
- Inside Out: Very good movie, shows depression quite well
- All of Toy Story
- Undertale
- Hotel Transylvania: This shouldn't surprise you considering I have gothic tastes
- Courage The Cowardly Dog: Oh boy, this show gives me such fond memories. It somehow managed to be terrifying and able to provoke emotion
- The Grim Adventures Of Billy And Mandy: Lots of amusing Black Comedy which is to be expected given the premise. Also introduced me to Voltaire back in the day
- Invader Zim: Also has lots of Black Comedy, interesting designs as well. Kind of a shame that it got taken off the air before it could finish
Works that I don't like/am apatheic towards/I have fallen out of love with
- Wolverine: Sorry for all you Wolvy fans out there. I am not fond of him
- Deadpool: He is way too eccentric for my tastes. I generally don't like it when characters break the fourth wall.
- Frozen: I was initially apathetic towards this film's existence. Then I was forced to watch it. And then I saw that it was bland as can be (No I do not think Hans was a good villain, that Anna was the best protag, or that Kristoff was interesting in any shape or way). The only character I liked was Elsa, that's it.
- Dragon Ball Z: This and Hellsing were kinda of the introductory animes for me. I ended up falling out of love with this work though as the arcs after Namek were not that great in my eyes atleast in hindsight. I also didn't like Vegata, at all.
- The Fairly Oddparents: Big part of my childhood. Sadly like Spongebob Squarepants it's a Franchise Zombie and it shows.
- Spongebob Squarepants: Also a big part of my childhood. While it is getting better nowadays I still wish that this show went off the air before the Seasonal Rot started to occur.
- Twilight: Textbook example of an unhealthy relationship. Anything beyond has already been said
- Fifty Shades Of Gray: How did this shit get beyond the editors is utterly beyond me. Everything wrong with this book has been said many times over
Tropes that apply to me
- Admiring the Abomination: Big time, goes hand in hand with my Nightmare Fetishist tendencies. I had this ever since I was a kid where I was fascinated by spiders, sharks, crocs, and pretty much everything else dangerous or creepy looking.
- Why Did It Have To Be Centipedes?
- Dark Is Not Evil: I am certainly a example of this
- It Amused Me: I am fond of pulling pranks on people and watching there reactions. It's all in good fun
- Perky Goth: Explains parts of personality and my fashion sense and likes (Creepy and cute things, and of course they can cross over) in Real Life to a T. I branch a bit into Punk or Rebel territory though with my fondness for leather jackets
- Rule of Cute: Just because I like Nightmarish stuff does not mean I cannot like cute stuff as well.
- Covert Pervert: I guess I qualify as this? I generally don't talk about anything related to sex very often or directly show attraction very much.
- Ambiguously Brown: I am multi-racial, especially noticeable when I have a serious tan
- Mistaken Nationality: Due to my real name people constantly assume I am Mexican. Funnily enough I have no actual Mexican blood in me despite being multi-racial.
- Sugar-and-Ice Personality: Pretty much how my personality works. I have my jokester more talkative side and my quiet, unintentionally cold, calm, shy side
- The Stoic: I can be this. I don't even blink an eye at times at things that other people consider scary, infuriating, frustrating, saddening, etc. Doesn't mean I am immune to being passionate or emotional though (far from it infact)
- Nightmare Fetishist: This pretty much defines some of my interests through and through. I have watched, read, and exposed to countless stuff that I find creepy or scary for various reasons and I have loved it.
- Badass Bookworm: I guess you can say I am this. Most people do not expect me to be someone into reading in Real Life due to looking like a punk mixed with a goth. Also I lift weights....
- Not Good With People: The first example. Despite appearances I am very very shy around people I don't know in Real Life but have a much easier time approaching animals. I have been like this for a long as I remember
- The Quiet One: I have a hard time talking in real life to people I don't know. I am commonly regarded as this by those very people
- Stepford Smiler: I suffer from Type A Stepford Smiler quite a lot when shit happens.
- Love Hurts: I know what it's like to be cheated on, torn to shreds in rejection by a crush, deal with unrequited love, have my emotions played with, and many other bad occurrences in regards to romance.
- Extreme Doormat: I will admit I can be this. Unfortunately it usually bites me in the ass pretty bad
- Jerkass with a Heart of Gold: At my worst I am this. It's very rare though to the point that very few people besides my family have seen the brutally snarky side of me
- Not So Stoic: When something really bad happens expect to see my masks to break hard.
- Berserk Button: There is quite a few things that annoy me to a serious degree. Note that I am The Stoic or usually calm though so you wouldn't always know it
- Black-and-White Morality. A disturbing amount of people seem to have this attitude to the point of Black And White insanity levels. I especially don't like it if it's paired with the Us vs. Them mentality
- Treating other people as subhumans no matter what the reason.
- Politics in general. While I am opinionated I haven't had very many good experiences in political debates. The debates themselves make me really uncomfortable nowadays
- Attacking me for my likes. Yes I am aware that my interests are usually creepy. No I do not give a shit and no I am not mentally ill
- Accusing me of being a stereotypical Goth or an Emo Teen in a stereotypical sense is a minor one. I don't really like it but I can't really fault you for being surprised about what my personality is actually like.
- Stereotypes in general
- Fan Dumb and Hate Dumb in general. Some people on the forums have seen me make short rants on both
- Extremists in general
- People who have ginormous egos
- Having my feelings knowingly toyed with. This one is a big one with me as Love Hurts has been a common trope in my life ever since I was able to be infatuated with someone else
- Any type of Double Standard trope being invoked
- Cloud Cuckoolander: My jokester side has traits of this and it is commonly overlapped with Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant. This mostly appears around people I am rather comfortable with
- Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant: I unintentionally can come off as this a lot of the time. I seem to be very good at accidentally scaring people without even trying (to the point people think I am serious). I would be lying if I said it didn't amuse me heavily though
- Black Comedy: I am disturbingly good at making dark jokes with a straight face.
- Nice Guy: Provided you get to know me and you don't act like an asshole towards me I am usually this.
- Silent Snarker: My quiet side employs this at times
- Deadpan Snarker: Oh man...if I don't like someone at all then expect to see this trope in play. Only appears in Real Life but occasionally appears on the Interwebz as well.
- Serial Tweaker: I am this to a ridiculous degree.
- Knight in Sour Armor: Describes my perspective on things. I don't have the best view on the world or society in general but I still find things worth looking into. I also try to see the good in everyone
- Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: I try to be a Idealist these days.
- Shrinking Violet: Sadly I qualify as this. I always was like this and my bad experiences in social settings didn't help me at all
- Tranquil Fury: On the rare occasions that I do get mad about something expect to see this. People consider it frightening due to rarely seeing me get angry
- Beware the Nice Ones: When people do piss me off I do not hold back. Very rarely happens
- Dissonant Serenity: I can do this trope really well in a bad situation
- Tiny Schoolboy: I am 5'4 and I am the third example of this. I never really was the type of guy to go out looking for fights or approval of others.
- Friend to All Living Things: I'm a male example to animals in Real Life strangely enough. Animals seem to love me
- Sophisticated as Hell: I can be this. I was raised to be very polite. Occasionally shows up
- Not So Above It All: I can still have fun though....
- Dark and Troubled Past: I have one. I do not talk about it very often if at all.
- Big, Screwed-Up Family: Not explaining further
Tropers that I am friends with
- Trashconverters: Ayy Trash is a pretty cool guy
