History Characters / RepoTheGeneticOpera

->'''Played By:''' Bill Moseley

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: It never occurs to Rotti that Shilo might refuse to [[spoiler:disown and kill her father in exchange for inheriting [[=GeneCo=]]]], since Rotti himself doesn't value life, and gladly kills anyone for money and spite.

* NeverMyFault:
(( A particularly despicable case of this trope, as he gladly blames Marni for her own death when ''he'' was the one who murdered her.

!!Rottismo ‘Rotti’ Largo

!!Paviche ‘Pavi’ Largo

* BareYourMidriff: In "Seventeen".

-->Don't help me anymore dad!
-->You are ''dead'' dad
-->In my eyes!
-->[[BigBad Someone]] has replaced you
-->Dad I ''hate'' you
-->GO AND '''''DIE!'''''

* EmoTeen: Her song "Seventeen" highlights this heavily.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler: The revelation that her mother didn't die from a blood disease is the first indication that something else is making her sick.]]

* MoralityChain: It's implied Shilo is all that's stopping Nathan from taking on the sociopathic Repo Man persona full-time.
** Indeed, upon deciding that he failed Shilo, caused her to abandon him and drove her into Rotti's thrall, he declares...well, this:
-->Then let the father die
-->And let the monster '''''RISE!'''''

* SupportingProtagonist: The story is really about Nathan and Rotti; most of her plotline sends her [[PinballProtagonist back and forth between them.]]

->''"I'm the monster. I'm the villain. What perfection. What precision! Keen incisions, I deliver. Unscathed organs, I deliver. Repossession, I deliver. I'm the Repo! Legal Assassin!"''

* TheCaretaker: To Shilo.
* ConsummateLiar: Constantly and easily lies about his work as the Repo Man, and [[spoiler:lies about Shilo's condition her whole life.]]
* DeadlyDoctor: He repossesses organs that people haven't paid for. He cares about the organs, so will use clean gloves and relevant scalpels. No anesthesia, transfusions, or replacements, though--good luck surviving without a spine.

* EvilDebtCollector: If you fall behind on your organ payments

* ItsAllMyFault: Blames himself for his wife's death, since she died after he tried to administer his cure to her.

* PunchClockVillain: In his off hours, he is a loving and doting father.

* ThenLetMeBeEvil: When Shilo rejects him.

* TheLostLenore: To Nathan, Rotti, and Mag.
* MissingMom: To Shilo.

* AbusiveParents: Emotionally abuses his children.
* AllForNothing: His elaborate, movie-long plan to [[spoiler:have Shilo kill her father in exchange for [=GeneCo=] turns out to be all for naught when she refuses to pull the trigger]]
* BadSamaritan: Offers to cure his girlfriend's best friend's blindness and make her a star, but sneaks into her contract that she can't leave if she doesn't want to get killed.
** On a global scale, he portrays his company as a philanthropic institution that offers life-saving organs to countless people who desperately need them, but each one includes an itty bitty little catch in their contracts that if they're late on a single payment, they'll get horrifically butchered alive by his Repo Men.

* {{The Chessmaster}}: Sets up Nathan by poisoning Marni.
* ConsummateLiar: Lies about how Marni died.

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Has his customers killed if they can't pay--and it's totally legal; he's made certain of it. And most of the plot of the movie is him trying to lure Shilo into being his protege, as a fuck-you to his kids and to Nathan.

* IncurableCoughOfDeath: What he's dying of.
%%* {{Living Lie Detector}}
* ManipulativeBastard: To everyone.
* MeaningfulName: He is Rotten.
** NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Given the musical motifs, chances are good that we're meant to take "largo" by its musical definition. Meaning his name means, roughly, "slow rot". You know. Like the organ failure epidemic. The one he's profiting off of and encouraging.
* NeverMyFault: A particularly despicable case of this trope, he gladly blames Marni for her own death when ''he'' was the one who murdered her.
-->'''Rotti:''' It's been difficult to see you [[ItsAllAboutMe after what you put me through]]\\

** Also regarding his children. Three children from three different mothers who all turned out petty, selfish, greedy, and surgery-addicted. The common denominator is him. Yet he blames their genes and intends to dump them for Shiloh, who only turned out decent because she was ''raised by someone else''.

* SelfMadeMan: Claims to be this in ''Gold.''

* FreudianExcuse: Shares this with all his siblings - He ''is'' his father's son, and that'd probably screw up anyone.

* InadequateInheritor: In Rotti's eyes.
* KnifeNut: Seems to prefer stabbing to other methods of harm.

* PluckyComicRelief: During "Mark It Up".

* [[BewareTheNiceOnes Beware The Slightly Less Evil Ones]]: Looks over the murder with an almost satisfied expression during "Night Surgeon", when even ''Luigi'' looks a little shocked. Also, when he's taunting the victim, his voice gets scratchier and deeper as he gets more violent.
** Acts so creepy when he first meets Shilo, that [[AxCrazy Luigi]] actually steers her away from him.

* DepravedBisexual: Not shown in the film, but according to WordOfGod.
* EffeminateMisogynisticGuy: Uses women for sex and their faces.

* HandsomeLech: By ''Repo!'' standards, he's this--surgery is considered attractive, so his... face... makes him look good, and he flirts with just about everyone.

* OffstageVillainy: We arguably see the results of such, as it's hard to imagine his face masks come from willing donors.
** Also his status as a rapist, as most of the women he courts appear to be completely consenting. Although there ''is'' the way he looks at Shilo in that one scene... And may have threatened those "consenting" Genterns with death (or worse) beforehand.

* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Has a thing for the Graverobber.

* AwesomeMomentOfCrowning: [[spoiler:When she takes over the company.]]
* BastardUnderstudy: [[spoiler:At the end of the movie, she gets complete control of the company by ignoring her father's will and knowing no one will question her.]]
** [[spoiler:Technically, he never signed the will. So it would be as if he never had a will or the previous one would count instead.]]
* BrotherSisterIncest: She seductively licks Luigi’s face after she [[GroinAttack attacks him.]]

* FunctionalAddict: Compared to most other "[[AddledAddict scalpel sluts]]," she has her surgery addiction together just enough to appear functional for the public... when she bothers to show up.

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: For most the movie, Amber primarily only throws temper tantrums and does some drugs, leaving her as the least dangerous antagonist by a large margin..... [[spoiler: until she single-handedly takes over [=GeneCo=] after Rotti's death and manages to take control of her brothers.]]

!!Magdalene ‘Blind Mag’ Defoe

* EyeScream: [[spoiler:Tears out her eyes herself]], rather than wait for a Repo Man to come for her.

* TheAggressiveDrugDealer: Well... sort-of passive-aggressive...

* BarbarianLongHair: combined with MultiColoredHair and DreadlockRasta.

** FanserviceExtra: [[invoked]] She got new breasts, and decided to give [=GeneCo=] the advertisement.

* PlasticBitch: Is addicted to plastic surgery.

* OnlySaneWoman: Probably the only character in the cast without any major dysfunction. You heard that correctly; the woman ''who rips out her eyes with her fingernails'' is the sanest character in this film.

* SelfServingMemory: He claims he was the perfect boyfriend and that Marni's elopement with Nathan blindsided him, but according to WordOfGod he was a serial dater and killer of many wives (whom Marnie most likely would have joined had they stayed together), some flashback scenes in "Gold" implies that their relationship had problems before she left (as there's a scene of her screaming at Rotti over something he thinks is no big deal--perhaps Mag's contract?), and he ''did'' enslave her best friend with a sneaky contract ''while'' they were dating. Given his NeverMyFault mentality, it's hard to tell how much of his version of their breakup holds up.

** On a global scale, he portrays his company as a philanthropic institution that offers life-saving organs to countless people who ''desperately'' need it, but includes an ''itty bitty'' little catch in their contracts that if they're late on a ''single'' payment, they'll get horrifically butchered alive by his Repo Men.

* DoWrongRight: The reason he hates his children - he doesn't care that they are psychopathic assholes, he is bothered by the fact they are lazy and stupid failures who obviously will lead [=GeneCo=] to downfall.

** Also regarding his children. Three different children from three different mothers who all turned out petty, selfish, greedy, and surgery-addicted. The common denominator is ''him''. Yet he blames their genes and intends to dump them for Shiloh, who only turned out decent because she was ''raised by someone else''.

** He's visibly disgusted when he notices Pavi glancing at Shilo in a... less than savory way. In fact, as soon as Pavi starts moving in on Shilo, Luigi quickly ushers her to the other side of the stage to get away from him.
** When Mag catches him stabbing a man for [[DisproportionateRetribution bringing him a less than satisfactory cup of coffee]] and tells him to stop, he does so and has the decency to look at least a little bit ashamed.

* ShooOutTheClowns: Him and Luigi are the ComicRelief and during the scene when Shilo is being bribed into [[spoiler: killing Nathan]], they start strangling each other and fall off the stage. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]], when they come right back when the scene has passed just in time for Rotti's VillainousBreakdown.

** Also his status as a rapist, as most of the women he courts appear to be completely consenting. Although there ''is'' the way he looks at Shilo in that one scene...
*** That being said, he may have threatened those "consenting" Genterns with death (or worse) beforehand.

* BadassBaritone: See EvilSoundsDeep below.

* ConsummateLiar: Lies about Shilo's condition her whole life, as well as his work

* HitmanWithAHeart: Kills people for a living, but loves his daughter.
* ILetGwenStacyDie: His wife, Marni.
* ItsAllMyFault: Blames himself for his wife's death.

* KnifeNut: How he removes organs as the Repo Man.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Failing to save his wife, his Repo Man activities, and his poisoning of Shilo.
* MyGreatestFailure: Part of the reason Nathan is such a crazypants is because he was a doctor before he became a Repo Man, and was responsible for his wife's death. [[spoiler: Or so he thinks.]]

* OverprotectiveDad: To the point of poisoning his daughter to confine her to their home

* SympatheticMurderer: Was forced into it by Rotti's manipulation

* ManipulativeBitch: We never get a lot of details about Marni's backstory, but just based on what we do get, she can come off this way. After all, she sweet-talks Rotti into helping her friend and then dumps him for Nathan pretty soon after... Still, considering Rotti had either killed or ordered the deaths of each of the mothers of his three children, can you blame Marni for wanting to get out while she still had a chance?

* MsFanservice: Of the more elegant variety--she's a truly beautiful woman.

* OnlySaneWoman: Probably the only character in the cast without any major dysfunction. You heard that correctly; the woman ''who rips out her eyes with her finger nails'' is the sanest character in this film.

* GenreSavvy: As the narrator, knows more than the others about what's going on.

->'''Played By:''' Alexa Vega

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: For most the movie, Amber primarily only throws temper tantrums and does some drugs, leaving her as the least dangerous antagonist by a large margin..... [[spoiler: [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome until she single-handedly takes over [=GeneCo=] after Rotti's death and manages to take control of her brothers.]]]]

* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:At the end of her final performance, after she defiantly rips out her own eyes, Rotti cuts the wires that are suspending her in midair over the stage. She falls and is impaled on the wrought iron fence below her.]]

* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler:At the end of her final performance, after she defiantly rips out her own eyes, Rotti cuts the wires that are suspending her in midair over the stage. She falls and is impaled on the iron fence below her.]]

* DeathGlare: She gives one to Rotti right before she [[spoiler:tears out her eyes.]]

* DealWithTheDevil: She signed a contract that in exchange for her digital corneas, she must be GeneCo's opera singing spokeswoman forever. When she retires, ceasing to hold up her end of the bargain, the Repo Man will come to take her eyes.

->'''Played By:''' ParisHilton

Rotti's youngest son and middle child. Womanizing, narcissistic, vacuous, and effeminate, he wears the skinned face of a woman as a mask over his own, which is heavily scarred. Due to the way his face is attached, he is able to change faces on a whim. He has an Italian accent (to conceal his speech impediment, according to Zdunich) and is almost always surrounded by women, usually Genterns, the employees of [=GeneCo=], who usually replace Pavi's faces for him.

* AffablyEvil: Probably the most polite and gentle member of the Largo family...though that's not saying much.

* ShooOutTheClowns: Him and Pavi are the ComicRelief and during he scene when Shilo is being bribed into [[spoiler: killing Nathan]], they start strangling each other and fall off the stage. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]], when they come right back when the scene has passed just in time for Rotti's VillainousBreakdown.

* ShooOutTheClowns: Him and Luigi are the ComicRelief and during he scene when Shilo is being bribed into [[spoiler: killing Nathan]], they start strangling each other and fall off the stage. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]], when they come right back when the scene has passed just in time for Rotti's VillainousBreakdown.

* KavorkaMan: Claims to leave the Gentern's "panties dripping."
