History Characters / RLYoshi

* CanadaEh: The first Canadian to join the channel since Max and Peter.

* CanadaEh: It practically doesn't even need to be listed here. Though his accent is no more prominent than Max's.
* CatchPhrase: "Canadamaaaaaaan!"

* CatchPhrase: Several, some specific to each let's play. Recurring ones include:

*** A frustrated "AND..." when trying to get other people to introduce themselves.
** "...I think that's gonna be it for this episode."
*** Was formerly "session" instead of "episode" before he started recording episodes individually, as opposed to recording a long session and just having the episodes be the session chopped into roughly thirty-minute segments.
** "Doo do-doo do-doo~" See NotSoInnocentWhistling below.
*** He also sometimes does the same with the Christmas carol ''Deck the Halls''.

* CanadaEh: Born in Alberta and currently lives in Ontario. He often makes SelfDeprecation jokes about Canadian stereotypes.

* ProperlyParanoid: As a result of being both GenreSavvy and a hater of being taken by surprise, a lot of things in games - especially ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaBreathOfTheWild'' - cause him to worry, and for good reason. Wide-open spaces make him nervous due to the possibility of sudden attacking monsters from nowhere (which do exist, albeit in smaller quantities than he believes), he's skittish around Guardian corpses due to worrying about them springing to life (which some do), he frequently avoids combat (a lot of enemy groups have the capacity to overwhelm the average player), and he's very hesitant to approach anything that seems out of place (in that game, if stuff seems out of place, it's either important or dangerous, not to be taken lightly in either case). A good specific example is when Max spots something demonic-looking on Mount Lanayru early game that he at first thinks is a shrine, before promptly deciding to avoid it entirely; said thing was [[spoiler:''[[BonusBoss Naydra the dragon]]'']].

* BadassBaritone: He has a naturally deep voice, which he can make go even deeper. Depending on what he's going for, it can sound make him sound calming, evil, or just older and more mature. It gets utilized in a lot of his character voices.

* BadassBaritone

* BadassBaritone

* SuperOCD: Not as prominent in games, but in some ''Minecraft'' builds it is. He'll also be quick to notice if there's something off about an area, which can lead to [[GenreSavvy realizing there's a trap, puzzle, or hidden item.]]

* WeaponOfChoice: In early shooters, he had a tendency to go for submachine guns and/or assault rifles. He has since moved on to [[ShotgunsAreJustBetter shotguns]]; the combat shotgun is his favorite ''[[VideoGame/{{Fallout3}} Fallout 3]]'' weapon, and he uses shotguns frequently in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' and ''[[VideoGame/ArmyOfTwo Army of Two: The Devil's Cartel]]''.

* WeaponOfChoice: In ''Screencheat'', the "hobby horse" is usually his go-to weapon.

* WeaponOfChoice: Not a weapon, per se, but he has an odd fascination with shields in ''Minecraft'' and dual-wields them throughout the 2016 Christmas special.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Alton and Arron are both pretty neat as far as first names go (though the latter is his middle name). The reason he goes by Dan instead is because nobody ever pronounces Alton right and no one ever spells Arron right.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: ''Jeronimo Ramirez.''
** And it's not even pronounced like it's spelled; his first name is pronounced with the ''J'' as an ''H'', and the ''i'' more like ''ee''.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: See all his names above.

* AwesomeMcCoolname: Okay, yeah, it's a nickname, but "Mobius" is a cool name to have.

* NiceHat

* NiceHat: He unironically likes fedoras, and he outfits his ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'' character with one when he's not in full body armor.

* WhosLaughingNow: He started the series off with the others making jokes at his expense due to his lack of experience with the game, having only had one win and a few days of practice. He was also taking over from Dan, who was the ButtMonkey of the four and consistently losing. [[OhCrap Then Brice got his Hyper at a high level.]] [[UpToEleven Multiples of them.]] It is now not uncommon for people to try and get on Brice's good side early in the game, or just avoid confrontations with him, in hopes of him not blasting them later on.

* BaldOfAwesome
** Or BaldOfEvil if you side against him.

** He does, however, still have a BigBrotherInstinct for characters such as [[VideoGame/TheWalkingDead Clementine]] and WebVideo/{{Snowdrop}}, so this trope is arguably subverted when dealing with fictional children. [[ZigZaggedTrope Though he was also happy to kill Duck...]]

* {{Asexuality}}: While he still has romantic interests, he's made it clear on social media and in some videos that he has no interest in sex. In ''VideoGame/HuniePop'', this leads to him either feeling uncomfortable or choosing to IgnoreTheFanservice when a particularly saucy image comes up.

* ItIsPronouncedTroPAY: His last name is pronounced "Tea-son". This is likely the cause of the SpellMyNameWithAnS below.

* BadassBeard: He was growing a cool one by not shaving for a whole year, though shaved it off in late 2015, going back to his former PermaStubble.
** BadassMustache: It came with one [[https://twitter.com/RLYoshi1/status/623742466081058816 that curved up]] like that of a villain in an old cartoon.

* BadassBeard

* BadassBeard

* NotSoDifferent: Despite his snarkiness typically being directed at Spark, the two have this going; they're both [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] yet [[CloudCuckooLander odd]] and typically do consistently the worst in ''Fibbage'', but have some of the funniest lies. The only difference is that David doesn't yell.

* FamousLastWords: He's technically Max at the time, but before Rhino kills him and he becomes a ghost: "We just missed each other completely!"

* {{Adorkable}}: Sure, he can be loud, but his [[LargeHam hammy]], [[TheDitz ditzy]], yet [[HiddenDepths intelligent]] personality is very endearing, and he doesn't look half bad either.
** It helps that he's into ''My Little Pony'', loves dogs and cats, and can be emotional about topics on social media.
** In part 5 of ''VideoGame/HuniePop'', he lists off a few pickup lines he's apparently used in the past. He also heavily implies they never worked.
--> Think you can take time out of your busy schedule of looking pretty to go out with me?

* TheSouthpaw: Uses left-handed controls in ''Minecraft'' after their introduction, and is the same in real life.

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Peanut butter cups.
** Also, cheese. And, presumably somewhat by extension, pizza.

** Apparently his top five foods, in order, are: peanut butter cups, pizza, tacos, spaghetti, and [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers cheese and crackers]].

* HeterosexualLifePartners: Though the "heterosexual" part is often [[HoYay made]] [[BiTheWay deliberately]] [[ShipTease ambiguous]] for laughs.

* ARiddleWrappedInAMysteryInsideAnEnigma: His username sounds like a downplayed example of this.

* NeverLiveItDown: In-universe, Max has a tendency to never let Rhino forget about his eating or falling asleep on recording and chides him for it frequently, even though he hasn't done either in a long time.

* CloudCuckooLander: ...yeah.

* SpoiledSweet: While an odd example compared to others, this nevertheless applies to him in Vault 14 of ''Minecraft Party''. He fits the carefree and optimistic role, he ends up constantly having more money than everyone else and only brags about it jokingly, and he makes some decisions and moves near the end of the game that [[YankTheDogsChain result in a potential victory being stolen from him]], but this doesn't detract from his behavior.

** CampGay: Though some may argue he would qualify for this if the other guys [[LargeHam with]] [[CloudCuckooLander their]] [[DeadpanSnarker own]] [[SirSwearsALot exaggerated]] [[ButtMonkey traits]] didn't make him look more normal by comparison.

* LeastRhymableWord: He subverts this when the topic comes up by thinking of "close enough" rhymes with words that are actually impossible to rhyme (or only have one or two perfect rhymes, like purple and silver). While the legitimacy of some of his rhymes is [[PainfulRhyme debatable]], the majority are excusable (for example, some rhymes with orange: storage, porridge, forage, and mortgage).

** "What's up, YouTube? This is [=RLYoshi=] as usual. I'm Max..."

* BeserkButton:

* MeanCharacterNiceActor: Science Pony is played up as mocking the stupider parts of his fanbase on occasion and being very stubborn about his conclusions, and sometimes will imply that anyone who believes something is stupid for doing so. In real life, Max never mocks his fanbase (well, except for the "fans" who are really haters), is always hesitant about saying he's sure of something, and doesn't think any less of anyone for their beliefs (unless those beliefs are very politically incorrect).
