Badass Mustache and Badass Beard were merged into Manly Facial Hair. Examples that don't fit or are zero-context are removed. Having facial hair is not enough to qualify. To qualify for Manly Facial Hair, the facial hair must be associated with manliness in some way. Please read the trope description before re-adding to make sure the example qualifies.


* BadassBeard: Refer to your right.



* BadassMustache: Again, look to your right.

Another time, he and Baird are attacked by a group of Polyps and Yanik came out without a single scratch... while wearing a ''sweater''.

* BerserkButton: When he's talking down a disobedient Gorasni, the man makes the mistake of bringing up Trescu's father. Trescu rebukes him, and tells him that his father would have killed him for sheer entertainment.



* [[MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch My People Doth Protest Too Much]]: He spends a majority of his time maintaining what's left of the Gorasni.
