I am a student in informatics. Aged 22. I like fighting games and roleplays. I love creating original characters, though I am sometimes prone to expy-ing before I get to use Divergent Character Evolution. I'm sometimes a real motor-brain when it comes to useless things like creating move lists for Original characters in roleplays. Also fond of abridged series.
I'm French but I hate it. Well, given my username you could say that. Also, I am writing my own fic, though it's not developed enough to talk about it yet.

Troper's Note:
- I put that note before because reading through all the character sheets to find that would be a bit long.

My works:
Speed Sounds
An original fiction in a closed post-apocalyptical setting akin to feudal France... with magic and futuristic technology. People settle their problems by fighting on karts, but The Hero, Ryoku, is an outlaw. When he crosses Yozabu's path, he takes upon himself to revolt and rises against the current ruling order. But he'll have to struggle hand-to-hand with the Downtown Police to get to the Upper-City where he can get his right done by his hands.
Beyblade C-Square
A collaboration Fan Fiction, in the Beyblade universe, long long after the series. The complete disparition of Bit Beasts causes Heinrich and Zin to develop new gear for Beyblades to return to impressive visual performance.
Tropes that apply to the fic:
- Adults Are Useless: The parents of the protagonists are rarely shown. The only important one is Johann, Erik's father.
- Aerith and Bob: Though there are people of various nationalities, the names are mostly normal. Then there are names like Mnemosine or Aelius.
- Evil Versus Evil: When the WBF goes off-the-scale in their ends of capturing Heinrich and Zin for the second time, Gerhard suspects this.
- Family Friendly Firearms: Averted, since Dick always has his M-249 machinegun.
- Hourglass Plot: Season 3 puts the heroes with Heinrich and Zin, and the WBF as the heels.
- Serious Business: You can guess. Beyblade, thanks to the Cell, becomes a very tiring activity when displays of power can set the whole arena on fire or destroy the opponent's blade in one single shot.
- Stealth Pun:
- C-Square. How many lines do you need to make a square? Four. C4 much?
- The head figures of WBF are named Moby and Dick.
The new concepts:
Connection of Mind and Blade The Chip Cells
The accessories devised by Heinrich, those replace Bit Beasts by using the Blader's energy to perform feats beyond what normal control cells allow.
Tropes that apply to the Chip Cells:
Characters:
Many of them, sorted in four-man teams.
Light Stones Liechtenstein
Tropes applying to the team:
- Cast Herd: This team was built around the complementarity of its members.
- Dream Team: What the WBF thought this team would be along with Team Monaco. They were wrong... at the beginning.
- Five-Token Band: What Erik thought about the team.
- Sociopathic Hero: All the members have a sort of problem. Every single member of the team is at least Not Good with People or has self-esteem issues.
- Multinational Team: Played with strangely: The team is based in Liechtenstein, but only the coach Gerhard is native of that country. Everyone does become a citizen of Liechtenstein though.
- Super Team: Subverted. Virgil usually doesn't hold his own alone. If not for his miraculous victory over Marco, he'd never have been chosen in the first place.
C-Square Gear Virgil
"I can not make things better in a blink of an eye. But a thing I can do is doing my best and hope it will work."
The Hero (sorta). Born in an isolated community of Vatican (birth name is "Vergilius"), he was introduced to Beyblading recently via his 18th birthday gift (Beyblading accessories). He evaded a forced marriage attempt by fleeing his life to enter the Tournament. He ended up at the finals, defeating "The Eternal n°2" Marco in the way. Completely isolated at first from his teammates, he gets to open to others and radically change after he defeats his former fellows. Due to his wide knowledge of languages, he is the only one able to talk to Mnemosine.
Tropes that apply to Virgil:
- Accidental Hero
- And Then What?: Asks himself that after defeating Iulia, because the only thing that makes him is that he's a member of the Light Stones.
- Anti-Hero: Type I
- Bad Powers, Good People: Against Iulia, he used shadow-like attacks and Combat Pragmatist techniques. And it turned the tables.
- Badass Bookworm: If Mega Manning Erik wasn't awesome enough, he did it two weeks after starting Beyblading.
- Casting a Shadow: His show element for a little time after abandoning his Creepy Cool Crosses.
- Determinator: He gave up his whole life for Beyblade (okay, it was just to avoid a forced marriage, but still). And then he comes back home, gets his ass kicked once and... turns the tables off by outwitting and outlasting a better-equipped opponent by sheer force of will.
- Do Not Call Me Vergilius! During the Vatican Arc.
- The Heretic: Spouting blasphemies during his match against Iulia just to grave his motivation in her (and his own) mind.
- The Hero
- Hikikomori: Was one until he decided to break out, sorta kickstarting the plot.
- Knight in Shining Armor / Knight in Sour Armor: Alternates between the two after being done with his motivation problems.
- Light 'Em Up: His theme at first, along with Holy Hand Grenade and Creepy Cool Crosses when he wasn't Mega Manning Erik.
- Loser Protagonist: Not exactly loser, but he's pretty bad at Beyblading if not for his Eleventh Hour Superpower Cell. At the beginning. He is trained out of it.
- Madness Mantra: When he snapped out of his depression. This allowed him to beat Iulia despite being inferior in terms of material and winning just because he wanted to.
- Mega Manning: Uses Erik's Triangle Assault and his Death Star attacks. And he did only watch those.
- Mighty Glacier: 'till the Vatican Arc. After getting destroyed he becomes a sort of The Mario.
- The Obi Wannabe: Tries to be advice to Min and Vlad. They don't listen to him, and Erik slaps the problems on his face every single time.
- Paint It Black: Did that against Iulia.
- Screw Learning, I Have Phlebotinum!: Subverted. Though his arrival and sudden victories came out of the blue, Virgil isn't one to skip any kind of lessons.
- Screw the Money, I Have Rules!: He was destined to be married to Iulia so his family could get a lot of money. She is 13 years older than him and their relation was nothing about a May-December Romance. He doesn't want to be married, and one of his birthday gifts is the marriage contract. His way of responding to that was running away from his life with everything he still has: the simple Beyblade that was his other birthday gift.
- Yin Yang Bomb: What he eventually decides to make his attacks look like.
The Second Beyblade Pioneer Erik
"Guys, I'm not a kid. I'm not gonna sit on this bench all mopey like you guys did. I know our opponents? Yeah, so? What does prevent me from kicking their ass?"
Tropes associated with Erik:
Superpowered Ordinary Girl Blader Min
"Do you need a reason to smile? I do not. Oh, looks like you already lost..."
A 20-year-old Chinese Girl. Though she looks like she's the most stupid member of the team, she was a high rank blader in her own right, and always surprises people. She entered the world tournament after having been expelled from the Forbidden City Clan, but was eventually defeated by Marco. The fight she put up against him made her a nice choice to fill the Team Liechtenstein. An underdog in terms of sheer awesomeness, she nevertheless is potentially as strong as the others, and those who underestimate her regret it.
Tropes that apply to Min:
- Action Girl: Sort of.
- Barrier Warrior: Her fighting style when she doesn't have to give it her all. Which means very often.
- Captain Ethnic: The only non-European member of the team.
- Cheerful Child
- Cloudcuckoolander: She's pretty much head-in-the-clouds at all times.
- Confusion Fu: Tries to pile up Kungfus just to catch her opponent off guard. Or fighting dirty.
- Cool Big Sis: For Virgil, once she's done with her own problems till he gets over his own. Lasts 2 arcs.
- Dissonant Serenity: When it's obvious, you know she has problems. Nobody in her team moves a finger: it's Jun who reassures her.
- Drunken Master: Does it, but with her Kung-Fu pileup it turns out to be an odd and effective thing to drink.
- Extraordinarily Empowered Girl: Her Boss Subtitle is named after this trope.
- Hime Cut: Despite being Chinese, she is a mild example of Cosplay Otaku Girl, so she sports this at all times.
- Lethal Joke Character: She looks the weakest of all the team because she almost never uses awesome attacks, preferring deceiving tactics. Nothing keeps her though from using Deflector Shields or even an Attack Reflector.
- Obfuscating Stupidity: And it works, except on her brother.
- The Pollyanna: She only breaks one time, and recovers of it rather easily (in comparison to the others) like the Plucky Girl she is.
- Sibling Yin-Yang: With her brother Jin.
- Stronger Sibling: She became that during the China Arc. Before, Jin was the stronger one.
- The Smart Girl: It's evident she's not The Chick when she starts out unable to form bonds with her team.
- Stepford Smiler: She lost her smile twice: the day before her match against her brother Jin; and during said match.
- Willfully Weak: Of sorts, she just almost never gets serious.
Beyblading Soldier Vlad
"I fight whatever has to be fought. Some persons just do want a Soviet boot in their ass."
A no-nonsense 24-year-old Russian soldier-like blader. His straight-to-the-point personality contrasts with his more whimsical teammates.
Tropes that apply to Vlad:
Strange Blader Guide Gerhard
"You're mistaken. I am not asking you to be the best of friends. I am asking you to become more than four men alone. Become a team."
The Adult Child coach of the team. He's very strange and hardly predictable, but despite being 34, he still chooses to act like a Big Brother Mentor to those he trains. Works the same for Team Liechtenstein. He leads them all the way and does not join Paul in infiltrating the WBF during Part 3.
Tropes that apply to Gerhard:
The Forbidden City Clan China
Min's former team, ( The Smart One) directed by the very national authorities of China. They fired her because of her fascination for Japan and America. The team is composed of Bladers taken at their childhood and trained at the Forbidden City to become perfect Bladers. They have a huge training center, and especially hard training regimens.
Tropes that apply to the team:
China's Gold Medal Jin
Min's aloof twin brother, and captain of the team. He mostly acts behind his teammates, doing reconnaissance job so they can do the fighting part. He is often seen in Jun's shadow, a fact that his opponents sure regret.
Tropes associated with Jin:
The Rising Dragon Jun
Min and Jin's best friend. The charismatic number 69 blader. The most friendly person in the team ( the only one at that). he willfully lost to Erik during the latter's 100-on-one battle, hiding his training, and he gives a monstrous beating to every single of his opponents during the China Arc.
Tropes associated with Jun:
- Cool Big Bro: Plays this to all the team.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: Delivered to Erik. Wen didn't even have to work.
- Does Not Like Shoes
- Expy: Of Ryu, by the looks.
- Shoto Clone: He uses his blade to perform their most traditional moves.
- Friendly Rivalry: With Jin.
- Martial Arts Headband: He practices martial arts on a regular basis on top of his Beyblade training, so he wears this as a telltale.
- Mighty Glacier: His blade has high attack, defense and endurance. Though, it's one of the slowest around.
- One-Hit Kill: His Shenglong, and his overall strategy revolves around landing it. Also, outside the matches he always tries to find ways to amp its power so that it remains a One-Hit Kill.
- Shock and Awe: Very sparingly used, but he does use it once he gets a Cell.
- Training from Hell: His hard Beyblade training regimen is hard enough for the rest of the team not to want any more tiring activity. Jun is the only one who takes true martial arts training, so it's obvious he trains much harder than the rest of his team.
Blooming Lotus Girl Lan
A young girl fresh out from the Chinese Beyblade Academy. She replaces Min in the team, though her tactics are much more straightforward.
Tropes associated with Lan:
Wannabe Sun-Tzu Wen
"I've seen every single move this guy's able to perform, and I have a plan. In other words, he's already lost."
Tropes associated with Wen:
The Forbidden City Maiden Fen
"Just look at her..."
The Clan's Miko-like coach. Idol of every Chinese Girl blader, especially Min. Despite being outsmarted by Wen, she still is very intelligent, more than she lets on. She also complements Jin and Wen's cold-hearted tactics by being soft-spoken, good-hearted, and over everything someone who likes to impose fair fights.
Tropes associated with Fen:
The Red Bladers - 1st Section Russia
Vlad's former team. He took a one-year break in his training, causing the others to call him weak. This team is composed of soldier-like bladers, with fitting training and appearance; as suck they're The Big Guy Team. They had a deal with Heinrich and tested the Cells too, though they ended up realizing it was a mistake. They dispose of Heinrich, and fight the match their own way.
Tropes associated with the team:
Lion of Siberia Lev
Vlad's friend and former comrade in arms, he is the leader of the team. A proud warrior and a bad one to get on the wrong side of. His excessive pride causes him to doubt the use of the Cells as he inflicts too much of a Curb-Stomp Battle to his opponents with it.
Tropes associated with Lev:
- The Beastmaster: His attack names revolve around lions.
- Brilliant, but Lazy: Subverted. He's lazy and enters many tournaments just to skip training the legal way. It's a bit benefical given that this much contacts with the exterior not only feels better for him, but the team as a whole gains more experience.
- Hot Blooded
- It Amused Me: His reason to even use the Cell. When it becomes boring, well...
- Large Ham
- Meaningful Name: The inspiration for his boss subtitle, and his attacks. Lev means lion.
- Messy Hair
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: He is the Red to Vlad's Blue.
Soviet Amazon Alyona
A very soldier-like tomboy blader. She is the cool head of the team, as well as carrying the role of The Big Guy. Maximum battle efficience is her priority since she is so often underestimated, what with being a woman. She is a bit emotionally repressed.
Tropes associated with Alyona:
Eye of the Snow Zinaida
The spy of the team, and the one to provide the best intel all teams considered. She is more quiet than her teammates, finding calmly the solution to problems.
Tropes associated with Zinaida:
Reassuring Snow Irina
Basically she is a sort of ambassador to her team. She stays behind the scenes and most of her work consists in upholding the reputation of the team, or convincing the ones they curbstomp not to get it too hard.
Tropes associated with Irina:
Captain Blade Yaroslav
Coach of the 1st section of the Red Bladers, he is the team's superior, directing the team under his iron fist. Though, he is still proud of his pupils and isn't afraid to boast their abilities.
Tropes associated with Yaroslav:
The New Legion Vatican
Virgil's former friends. They are acquainted with Heinrich, and therefore the Light Stones are sent to investigate. It turns out they are guarding the Vatican due to the tense situation, and the Light Stones have to act under Gerhard's orders instead of Dick and Moby's in order to manage to enter Vatican. After being discovered inside, the team is not sent back outside, but publicly challenged. By revealing Virgil's past, they reveal what is at stake: Virgil's refusal of the marriage proposition from Iulia. Afterwards they become a sort of The Lancer Team.
Tropes associated with the team:
- Aerith and Bob: We have normal (though old) names such as Lucius and Iulia, while there's Aquila and Aelius.
- National Stereotypes: Sort of. They're not exactly Italian, but Virginia does painting as a hobby, and all of them are Roman Catholics to an absurd degree. Then come the Vatican stereotypes: their functioning around a Corrupt Church of sorts is played straight. Though Heinrich is behind them, inverting a stereotype.
Dux Bellorum Aelius
Highest graded person in the new Legion, he basically has rights to inherit Appius Caesar's status. Though, he delights more in ruling his team by being the captain rather than sitting behind. A honorable soldier, he's being kept in the dark by the bureaucracy, not that he wishes to know anything about it. He was a kind of big brother to Virgil as well as any of his teammates. He establishes himself by defeating Erik and destroying his blade to prevent the Light Stones from disturbing. Though, at the public match, he gets defeated by Erik in return.
Tropes associated with Aelius:
Casanova Centurion Lucius
Aelius's younger twin brother. He is quite a looker, especially when compared to his brother, and that explains maybe why most girls his age love him. In battle, he doesn't have his brother's strength, but instead uses speed to win. He takes Vlad twice, first destroying his blaed, and then losing to him.
Tropes associated with Lucius:
Daughter of the Elite Iulia
A well-known and calm professor. She's also Appius's granddaughter, which gives her a way to subvert even Aelius's authority. She was supposed to marry Virgil before the game, but this marriage for monetary interest disgusts him. After Appius's death to the World Beyblade Enforcement Brigade, she took upon herself to take his place, and clear his name from the WBF's claim that he protected Heinrich. She also refuses to retry and marry Virgil, instead choosing that Defeat Means Friendship. She's the team coach from Part 2 onwards.
Tropes associated with Iulia:
Enslaved Eagle Aquila
Iulia's slave. Though the terms sound bad, Iulia not being a bad person considers her more like something between little sister and daughter than anything close to the old idea of it. Aquila herself holds her condition in high regards, and she's also pretty excitable.
Tropes associated with Aquila:
Maiden of the Painted Mounds Virginia
Virgil's little sister. She shows up in Season 2 to make due for Iulia's departure. She's pretty shy, but also one of Iulia's greatest pupils. She's also as green as can be in Beyblading, therefore she's taught everything by watching videos of her brother.
Tropes associated with Virginia:
The Storm Panzers Germany
Erik's former friends, formed into a team by Johann, Erik's Archnemesis Dad. Though, it soon appears that Johann is completely unable to control his team, and Heinrich's influence is soon perceived. Gone Drunk with Power, the members of the team intend to show Erik how they have grown by defeating him. He doesn't take their challenge very well.
From Season 2 onwards they are the (doubtedly) Token Evil Team, but hell if they aren't bad friends to Erik.
Tropes associated with the team:
- Drunk with Power: They're pretty different after they lose, but when they fight the heroes, they range from twisted to Ax Crazy. Only Kilian isn't, and that causes him to be cast out of the matches by Johann.
- Germanic Efficiency: Averted for the most part: they are pretty enthusiastic about their C-Square-powered asskicking escapades. Kilian and Johann play this trope straight though.
Falcon Captain Falk
Tropes associated with Falk:
- Animal Motifs: The falcon, obviously.
- Ax Crazy: When Drunk with Power.
- Bait-and-Switch Boss: Subverted. He's the captain of the team, but Gretchen is the Final Boss. Given putting her against Erik was an auto-loss for the Panzers, the really important Boss Fight was him against Virgil.
- Big Man on Campus: He was known to be pretty classy before operation, and in Season 2, he beyblades shirtless, to show his scars at his back... but his torso is actually intact, and he has pretty good looks.
- Birds of a Feather: He unites the team because Gretchen is as envious as him, and Asger is a Jerk Jock at his side.
- Bullying The Dragon: Subverted. He does take on members of the previously-establised teams, but he thoroughly kicks everyone's ass up to the finals.
- Good Scars, Evil Scars Two humongous ones after his freaky operations to get jetpack implants out of his back.
- I Shall Taunt You Making an entry from the sky with reactors implanted in his back was how he pissed Aelius off.
- Jerk Jock: Gretchen labels him and Asger that, but that's a bit hypocritical given she's the Class Rep Alpha Bitch there according to him.
- Opposites Attract: How the quiet Kilian became his friend is a mystery.
- The Power of Friendship: Yeah, even though he's selfish and all, he holds the team together this way.
- Selfish Good, Selfish Evil: Where exactly he is depends on the moment.
- Seven Deadly Sins: Kilian shows it at his face.
- Greed
- Green-Eyed Monster: Everything the other has, he wants it for himself. Especially if it is related to Beyblading.
- Villainous Glutton: Yes, he will overuse power when he has it.
- Lust For Power.
- Pride: Yes, he does believe he is the best Blader out there.
- Lazy Bum: If it's not show-off, he won't do it. Between matches, he does nothing.
- Wrath: Not directly, but he has a big Berserk Button for anyone belittling him.
Danger In The Arena Asger
Falk's best friend. He's set up as a massively assholish brute. He's also the one responsible for the team's nasty Drunk with Power streak since he embraced craziness just after beating all of his teammates.
Tropes associated with Asger:
- The Brute: He goes so far as beating up Zina outside a Beyblade match.
- Jerk Jock: Moreso than Falk. Beating nerds is pretty much all he does at school.
- One-Hit Kill: Does this in Beyblading.
Protestant Against All Kilian
The Smart Guy of the team. The only non-violent member of the team, his solution to ending the tournament fast is to quickly beat the crap out of his opponents. Though, his worries about the team get him to protest, and ultimately betray his team, by letting Team Liechtenstein the secret to the C-Square.
Tropes associated with Kilian:
- Deadpan Snarker: Only to his team, he's pretty friendly to the opponents.
- Enemy Mine: Sort of. He warns Team Liechtenstein about how the C-Square works.
- Seven Heavenly Virtues: Seeks those, as opposed to Falk, whom he always calls out to no avail.
- The Quiet One
- The Stoic: Even when the others went Drunk with Power, he kept his cool.
- Not So Stoic: He snarks at the rest of his team during the semifinals because of how badly they owned their opponents up to there, and how they didn't deserve it.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: At the end of season 1, he's not seen after the semifinals. He reappears in Season 2 alongside the rest of the team without explanation.
Crazy Smitten Girl Gretchen
Wouldn't it for having been a school friend of Erik, she'd be a normal girl. But she fell into Yandereness and tried different ways to make him fall in love with her. That's the reason she even started Beyblading: to prove him she's worthy of going with him. Though, their status is ambiguous at best.
Tropes associated with Gretchen:
Ace Tutor Johann
Erik's father, a terrible one at that. A professional blader in an age where it was barely noticed (given how low his performance was), he resented the world of blading, and tried to take it over by training Erik to have a sort of monopoly of victories.
Tropes associated with Johann:
- Adults Are Useless: Heinrich makes him bite this hard. His stoic orders are negated by Falk's much more "entertaining" choices for the team.
- A Pupil of Mine Until He Turned to Evil: He's forced to keep his team to make money, but he would have disbanded it completely if it wasn't for this since he considered all his team (Kilian aside) this for Season 1.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: It is a known fact that his career was almost entirely made of such, taken from Moby and Dick. He abandoned professional Beyblading when he began training Erik.
- Germanic Efficiency: He lives this trope. No feelings whatsoever towards anyone.
- Obsolete Mentor: What he teaches is very outdated tricks, as Falk and Erik will tell.
- Rage Against the Mentor: He knows he has this coming from pretty much all the team, minus Kilian, plus Erik.
- Sink or Swim Mentor: His teaching methods are tiring and brutal.
- Stealth Mentor: He has been this at first to Gretchen before accepting her in the team.
- Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: With Heinrich in the Germany Arc. He despises that work and the fact that he lost all authority on his team.
- Training from Hell: Reestablishes his authority on his team in Season 2 by inflicting this to his team after their quick defeats.
Major Antagonists
Pope of the Legion Appius Caesar
Coach of the New Legion during the first part. He was the man in charge of the Vatican Federation of Beyblade, and also the head of the Roman Community. When he discovered Heinrich was using them to his own ends, he tried to trap him, but when the World Beyblade Enforcement Brigade shot at Heinrich to prevent the latter from escaping , he was caught in the fire and injured. Dick finished him afterwards.
Tropes associated with Appius:
Creator of the Connectors Heinrich
A former World Beyblade Federation designer, he was very proficient in his days. Fired at age 23 because he was "going a little too far", he created Neoblade, an enterprise that designs many Beyblade accessories outside of the WBF. Heinrich himself created many experiments behind the scenes; the most infamous of those is hiring Zin, a self-taught LEGO Genetics genius. He is the one behind the Cells. He takes several appearances and identities through the fiction, because his head is wanted.
Tropes associated with Heinrich:
- Big Bad Duumvirate: Both have incredibly good competences and interactions, hence they were so hard to catch. And even when they were, they pulled amazing things to evade jail.
- Char Clone: Plays with types 2 and 3.
- Blond Guys are Evil: Season 1.
- Even Evil Has Standards
- Evil Albino: Season 2.
- Hijacked by Ganon: Season 2. Souma is pictured to be one 2 Big Bads that rampage on the WBF teams around the world. Then it's figured Heinrich and Zin are behind it.
- Last Villain Stand: End of Season 2.
- Lawful Evil: As evil as he can be, Heinrich plays with the rules.
- Master of Disguise: Had his genetic makeup redone by Zin to change appearance. Three times.
- Not Evil, Just Misunderstood: Having a very bad attitude such as his helps.
- Politically Incorrect Villain: Subverted: he's ONLY made up to be politically incorrect.
- Reformed, But Rejected: Not really. The moment he reforms, he takes offensive actions and manages to be redeemed to the eyes of all in a matter of weeks.
- Refuge in Audacity: How does he deal with being fired from the WBF? He creates his own Beyblade design enterprise and becomes successful enough to amass lots of money.
- Screw the Rules, I Have Connections!: Pulls this off to avoid any kind of punishment for what he did.
- Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: Averted. Even billions can't pay people off when it comes to him.
- Screw Your Ultimatum: When the WBF has caught up to the fact their evasion is true, and national teams are getting their asses kicked, they gang up on the Neoblade teams. Then once Heinrich is the only one left, Dick sends out an ultimatum to Heinrich, asking him to surrender by menacing him to invade the place with military forces. Heinrich did Take a Third Option and had Souma go One-Man Army against the World Beyblade Enforcement Brigade, while Heinrich himself invited Team Liechtenstein to his lab.
- The Adjectival Man: The Masked Man (Season 1)
- Visionary Villain
- Wrench Wench: He is extremely good in mechanics. Though he did monstrous surgery to the German Team, those operations still were successful.

Ultimate Commander and Soldier Souma
Heinrich's only follower once he left the WBF, he was discovered to be struck with liver cancer. Heinrich recruited Zin to help him save Souma's life (and more, but still). After a very complicated operation, Souma was grafted into a mechanical body.
Tropes associated with Souma:
- Anvilicious: Almost incapable of delicate tasks, but he packs more punch than just about everyone.
- Brain in a Jar: Not completely so, his lungs and heart are still normal.
- Electronic Eyes: He has Cool Shades to hide them, taking after Heinrich.
- I Work Alone: He usually fights solo despite being a heavily-armed agent.
- Mighty Glacier: Compared to his partner Calixte.
- Military Maverick: Revealed to be this during his times in World Beyblade Enforcement Brigade.
- One-Man Army: Give him two gatling guns and one Ninja partner. And he will do the task of stalling a thousand-men military force.
- Super Strength
- Undying Loyalty: To Heinrich. And he holds Zin in high regards for having made his resurrection possible in the first place.
- Wetware CPU

Tropes associated with Dick:
Touhou Musouhen ~ Misadventures Of A Unique:
My Touhou Self Insert Fic, where I get spirited away to Gensokyo during a "shrine tour" of Japan. Then, things are pretty screwed up.
Tropes that apply to the fic:
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: The "Musou Notes", that are written from either my point of view as author, or as the self-insert character, or both.
- Self Insert Fic: Well, duh.
- What If?: What if I decided to go to Japan for just traveling, and suddenly was spirited away to Gensokyo.
Characters new to the fic:
Self-insert
Tropes associated to "me":
- A Fate Worse Than Death: Undergoing spiriting away while conscious is described to be a pretty bad experience.
- Badass Longcoat: I try to play on this, but in narration it's said to be a dubious taste.
- Brutal Honesty
- Crazy Sane: Adaptation to Gensokyo is hard.
- Dangerously Genre Savvy and Wrong Genre Savvy: Oscillation, but the taking ridiculous risks part is there.
- Deadpan Snarker: More like Snarker.
- Death Is Cheap: And it comes fast.
- First-Person Smartass: First chapter only. Afterwards, the narration got switched to 3rd person.
- Ghost Amnesia: And it was preceded by Trauma Induced Amnesia, so memory is at a bit of a lack.
- Good Is Not Nice: But then, even the good part is ambiguous.
- Gratuitous Japanese: It's more of a tendency to spout fake Japanese which ends up not being understood.
- Though, the Spell Cards are partly named in fluent Japanese.
- I'm Having Soul Pains: Result of trying to experience a bit of craziness in order to use danmaku.
- Ineffectual Loner: Trying to go alone in Gensokyo isn't a good idea. And even though no wild youkai came for free lunch, every single fight opportunity is an occasion to get the lower end of the stick in a Curb-Stomp Battle.
- Leitmotif: I use Greenwich in the Sky as my theme. Demetori's remix - I use too - is referred to as "Greenwich in the Sky ~ Live-wire".
- Not Even Bothering with an Excuse: To not say goodbye to Marisa and Sanae, when time comes to leave the Hakurei Shrine.
- Our Ghosts Are Different
- Precision F-Strike: "Fuck it!" A Shout Out to Guilty Gear, namely Order Sol's "Rock it!". Noticeable in that it's said in straight English compared to the fic being written in French, and that like its inspiration, it's the name of an attack. Attack used the first instance of the line in an attempt at a Talk to the Fist. It failed.
- Reluctant Psycho: At least not really lucid.
- Sarcasm Mode: Switches pretty often.
- Shock and Awe: Misuse of the power of using tension first manifests by sparks surrounding the body.
- Shout Out:
- See Precision F-Strike.
- In a bonus chapter, I mobilize most characters of Gensokyo for a harmless card game. The game itself is one to trading card games in general, especially ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' and Magic: The Gathering, which I both played. The title of that bonus chapter? "It's just a card game."
- I did a movelist for me, and some attacks are trope-named: Made of Iron, Shock and Awe, This Is a Drill, Static Stun Gun, Ride The Lightning (that one is a Shout Out in the same category as "Fuck It!"), and Flash Step: Reppuu Daisei.. There's also shout-outs to Fighting Game mechanics such as Alpha Counter and Beta Counter and Uppercut Warning. Also, the System Card I created is a Shout Out to Street Fighter IV's Focus Attack; . And for a Shout Out to a non Fighting Game, there's Bolt Strike.
- And an in-series Shout Out, there's this name: Death Mark: Musou Tensei. Explanation in three points.
- Musou is the name I use to refer to the character, though it is only narration-wise.
- Musou Tensei is also the Japanese name of Reimu's Fantasy Heaven, as well as the attack from Fist of the North Star Fantasy Heaven itself is a Shout Out to.
- The attack itself functions just like the Shun Goku Satsu.
- The Snark Knight
- Standard Status Effects: Bad Atmosphery: Reibaku inflicts paralysis.
- Stepford Snarker
- Stronger With Age: And being here for two weeks means being barely able to trade hits with Cirno. Downplayed in that I still traded with her Ice Cube: Great Crusher, her most powerful Spell Card from Touhou Hisoutensoku.
- The One Guy: Averted. Despite the rarity of guys, some other fan fics considered canon in this one results in a handful of guys existing in Gensokyo.
- The Power of Friendship: I outright state: "And the Power of Friendship is sh-." (Cue Eiki cutting the sentence short.)
- The Power of Hate: Actually, it's a bit of a struggle against it. Well, showing hate + being weak + living in a World of Action Girls = exterminated on the spot.
- This Is Me On Drugs
- Training from Hell: Two weeks with Reimu, Sanae and Marisa. It results in learning to fall slower than normally.
- What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?: Could quote the trope!

- Creepy Cool Crosses: His ultimate attack reflects Ky Kiske's Zwei Voltage, and that means a freaking electric cross.
- Expy: Of Guilty Gear 's Ky Kiske.
- No Celebrities Were Harmed: Michael Kiske + Kai Hansen = Michael Hansen. The other way around from Ky Kiske.
- The rest of the names of his team are Helloween references.
- Fair Cop
- Heart Beat Down: The heart element, being mastered most notably by him, uses feelings as primal force.
- Knight in Shining Armor / Knight Templar: He'd save anyone, but if you're as much as not good enough, he'll throw you tied and paralyzed to his superiors.
- Light 'Em Up
- Magic Knight: Unlike all of his fellow policemen, Michael handles swords, guns, and magic well enough.
- Ride The Lightning: Copying Ky's move.

Tropes associated with Yan:
Tropes associated with Roland:
- Chronic Hero Syndrome: What even conducted him to teach Michael how to fight.

- The Power of the Sun
- Supporting Leader: Plays this to the team by doing off-fighting work.
- Theme Naming: His first name is that of Roland Grapow, who replaced Kai Hansen as Helloween's guitarist.
- Irony is that as Roland Grapow replaced Kai Hansen, Michael Hansen is actually a sort of successor to Roland Glauberg.

Captain: Friedrich Loese
Other members: Sonner Baden, Karl Fouque
This team has been formed by Friedrich, who is joining back forces with his childhood friend Sonner, whom he had left to enter a clandestibne scientific group he ended up as a guinea pig for.

Tropes associated with Friedrich:
Tropes associated with Sonner:
- Extra Ore Dinary: The only one in the team to use steel.
- Genius Bruiser: He works at a nuclear power plant, and yet he fights to win the B.K.T.
- Good Is Not Nice
- Infraction Distraction: Sonner entered the lab... to stall the group for Friedrich.
- Irony: He uses fire, and wears red, but he's cold-blooded as there's no tomorrow.
- Leave No Witnesses: Sonner avoided this since he stalled someone who was coming to clean the rest, even offering Friedich time to escape the lab he was experimented in.
- Stealth Expert: The group Friedrich was in never noticed him spying on them, and he did it for years.
- Years Too Early: Sonner and Friedrich appeared in the first edition of B.K.T. and failed horribly. Then Friedrich left him. Sonner's been training ever since.
Tropes associated with Karl:
Kamiya Clan
Captain: Nouki Kamiya
Other members: Koji Kamiya, Gashou Kamiya
Three members from an ancient clan in Japan. The clan itself is a sort of Ancient Conspiracy of goals unknown, but if those three are here, it's obvious that something in the B.K.T. has to be looked upon.

Tropes associated with Gashou:
Sandao Clan
Captain: Pingba Sandao
Other members: Shiba Sandao, Xin Fengjian
Tropes associated with Pingba:
Tropes associated with Shiba:
- Abusive Parents: Pingba did absurd things to him, for a father.
- And no he's not abusive to his son. At least not as a father.
- Calling the Old Man Out: He won the corporate empire of the family only by exposing how Pingba killed his own father.
- Deal with the Devil: Actually the "devil" was just the schizophrenia he had in his youth.
- Disappeared Dad: Was this to Xin since he was jailed before Xin's birth, and didn't bother to come back.
- Gone Horribly Right: Pingba was an abusive dad just so Shiba could be strong and hateful. Shiba amped it Up to Eleven by backfiring it at Pingba's face.
- Hot Dad: He's 45, yet he still looks around 30~35.
- Jerkass: Like Father, Like Son, and he can be on both sides.
- Missing Mom: His mom died giving birth to him.
Tropes associated with Xin:
- Calling the Old Man Out: He did it thrice. First on his mother out of resentment for hiding who was his father; he gave her a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown and left. Second time was to Pingba, thought Pingba did offer him rights to be his Right Hand Man for a time, changing Xin into a Corrupt Corporate Tyrant. When Shiba came back, Xin called him out, and Shiba did shady maneuvers to buy Xin's parts until he was out of business.
- Bait the Dog: In a very small time scale. Set up like Jin Kazama in Tekken6: Anti-Villain doing evil deeds, but Xin could be suspected as an Expy to have some better reasons... but no. He's just as ruthless as them, and he beat his own mom - seemingly to death.
- The Corruption: Done to him by Pingba when he introduced Xin to the truth of business.
- He's Back: Shiba thought he was finished with Xin... but Xin resurfaced in less than one year and doubled him, using the prize money he won from the BKT 9.
- He Who Fights Monsters
- Missing Mom: His mom, after he beat her up to a pulp.

Currently active characters:
Lost Heart of the Blazing Suzuran Majamu Tokimoe
"Just stop freaking calling me Miss. I gave up on that long ago."
Majamu, to Jubei
An Ikarugan-breed female, emotionally ravaged during her young-age battle in the Ikarugan Civil War, by her devastating loss to Jin Kisaragi (he cut off her arm without even noticing her). For four years, she wandered to kill as many NOL officials as possible. At the peak of her bloodlust, she entered the Military Academy, and slaughtered 22 girls that same night, and in her escape, she met Jin Kisaragi, and was defeated soundly again; she lost her left eye in that encounter. In her subsequent struggles, she heard of the Red Devil, and followed him, stalling NOL for him, and ultimately being ambushed and losing her legs. Since she was trying so hard to help, Kokonoe asked Tager to bring her back and restored her before it was too late. Since then, she is a Sector Seven operative wielding the nuclear-powered Armagus sword Rengoku that has been crafted for her.
Tropes associated with Majamu:
Double-faced Demonic Soldier Reiei
"I am maybe not worth serving you or Madam Rachel, but... that's what I will do."
Reiei, to Valkenhayn
A young werewolf of unknown descent, he has been educated in the NOL to become an Intelligence officer. During his studies, he had a girlfriend who got murdered recently, right at the beginning of his last year of studies. In those times, his mother told him his father was enslaved - like Valkenhayn of the Six Heroes he is such a fan of -, and plotted him against Rachel Alucard out of sheer spite. However, he found her during his last vacations, and a battle with Valkenhayn ensued, a battle during which Valkenhayn managed to tell the truth. Blaming the Library for his foolishness, Reiei turned his vest and swore to become a fine butler for Rachel. As he took on this role, he acted as a double agent for her in the NOL, a position that leaves him in a very tight spot.
Tropes associated with Reiei:
- Ambiguously Brown
- Animorphism: His werewolf nature is almost suppressed to the point he can't get more than claws.
- Ascended Fanboy: He's a fan of the Six Heroes, much like fellow NOL member Tsubaki. His first apparition in the RP was helping Hakumen.
- Badass Bookworm: Not really badass yet as he didn't fight anything.
- Battle Butler: Though Valkenhayn surpasses him by far in both aspects, in battle and as a butler.
- Big Badass Wolf: No, he cannot became one. One big source of self-esteem issues.
- Bishōnen
- Casting a Shadow: Has much dark imagery. Even in his name.
- Confusion Fu: His Armagus, Hyakki, allows him to move regardless of gravity and momentum. With it, he can move while giving the illusion of not moving, or moving the opposite side he should be going to.
- Dark-Skinned Blonde
- Fragile Speedster: He's fast in battle, but not really that easy to knock out, though he's very weak-minded.
- Hikikomori: Passes off as this, though he's clearly not one.
- Our Werewolves Are Different: And now we have a bookworm werewolf.
- Playing with Fire: His claws leave burn marks due to instinctive fire magic.
- Training from Hell: With Valkenhayn. Though it was short, he's recovering from it.
Dead Eastern Beauty Shibi Sekisei
"If you want to condemn my poor soul of an Academy student, it is already dead."
A normal NOL girl student, she has a crow pet named Shikkoku. Since she was so calm, lazy, and uncaring, she had a bad behavior for a future officer, and a night of mass murder, she was taken by Relius Clover as one of the numerous souls Terumi would use for a dual-Armagus weapon. Of course, the two spells couldn't function as well as expected; and Shibi's soul in the scythe, having kept integrity during the weapon's creation, resurrected her body that was thrown in the same dump. Swearing she would get her wrongs right, she engaged a crusade to find Terumi and Relius Clover, trying to keep hold of the Grim Reaper's actions. Even killing former classmates if they're in the way and shocked at her survival won't stop her.
Tropes associated with Shibi:
- Black Magic: Shibi thinks her scythe is an item of such magic.
- Came Back Wrong: When she died, she was strange, but just that. When she returned, she was strange and homicidal.
- Demonic Possession: She claims everyone who kills her and takes her scythe will end up possessed by her. Not really that far from the truth, but she is much less hostile than this claim.
- I See Dead People: Falling asleep is the equivalent for dying again to her.
- Shout Out: To Touhou as a whole, but especially Komachi Onozuka, who she's an Expy of.
- Soul Jar: Her scythe, sort of. If she doesn't hold it, the resurrection spell that maintains her alive wears off.
- Telepathy: If she was to actually give her scythe, she would cohabitate with the spirit of the one holding the scythe.
- The Soulless: Not exactly, but her soul is in the scythe, even if she's alive.
