History Characters / TheOtherSideOfTheSpectrumPHLUNTaskforce

* AuthorityGrantsAsskicking: Managed to make Princess Celestia bleed for the first time in centuries.
** AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: He became vital to the PHL because he was ''very'' good at his job, and once he had authority he ended up getting all the cool new toys for better asskicking.

* DropTheHammer: His main weapon.

* HandCannon: Marcus' Colt ([[IncrediblyLamePun *snicker*]]) [[CoolGuns M1911]] has been magically modified into one.

* CoolGuns: His first LMG is almost identical to an [=MG42=]. He later upgrades [[http://haruaxeman.deviantart.com/art/MG2023-AISW-LMG-and-Colt-Quetzalcoatl-485373165?ga_submit_new=10%253A1412012631&ga_type=edit&ga_changes=1&ga_recent=1 to these two weapons.]]

* EyeScream: After Icewind and several other Guards resign in protest of Equestria helping humanity, she comments that she vaguely remembers gouging out his TCB counterpart's eyes in Paris. No one around her [[JustForPun bats an eye]] at this remark.

* ButNotTooBlack: Half Ethiopian. Though the Ethiopian person was also Jewish.

* PeekABangs: One of her eyes is always covered by her long bangs. Prime Comet notes that it makes her seem like she's always staring at you no matter which angle you face her from, making her all the more unnerving.

* OverprotectiveDad: Downplayed. He vocally hates the idea of sending his daughters into battle, but reluctantly accepts ChildSoldiers as a necessary evil.

* ComicBookFantasyCasting: He's modeled off [[Film/{{Elysium}} Kruger]] and [[Film/DistrictNine Wikus]], both of whom are played by Sharlto Copley.

** [[Film/{{District 9}} Wikus van der Merwe]] in that he's a morally ambiguous and foulmouthed family man who lost his comfortable life, underwent unspeakable ordeals and SanitySlippage, gets revenge on those that hurt him through the use of a {{BFG}}, and eventually discards his FantasticRacism.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Managed to make Princess Celestia bleed for the first time in centuries.
** AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He became vital to the PHL because he was ''very'' good at his job, and once he had authority he ended up getting all the cool new toys for better asskicking.

* TheRedBaron: Her alias, "the Blue Spy".

%%* WidowWoman

* TheAtoner: He was in the HLF, who are {{Right Wing Militia Fanatic}}s with a KillEmAll mindset with regards to ''all'' ponies (both [[DefectorFromDecadence PHL]] and PER members) in this universe. Still, he does hold plenty of guilt over the crimes committed during his time with them, insisting in his interview in ''Case Files'' that he's no hero. His friendship with [[MoralityPet Aegis]] and desire to redirect his murderous impulses ''solely'' towards the Imperial Equestrians are evidence of this.

* WeaponOfChoice: He prefers high-capacity shotguns, light machine guns, and revolvers that happen to be {{Hand Cannon}}s. All his appearances so far have him using some revolver with a bore almost half an inch in diameter, and an LMG.

-->'''Pina:''' "Disney movies. ''Wolf Children Ame and Yuki''. Very pretty. Very nice. You see what they want you to see. There is much they do not want you to see. They want you to feel sorry for them. They will lie. Have you stopped to think? Think of the Solar Empire. Perhaps right now they are showing ponies their own exhibition. An exhibition like this one. About humans, yes. Humans and what they can do. Humans and awesome things. But reflected in a dark mirror. Yes, they have a lot to work with. You will see."

* AwesomeMcCoolName: Her last name means "Son of Wolf."

* NiceHat: Gains a replica of Creator/ClintEastwood's stetson hat when [[spoiler:she leaves the Empire]].

* MysteriousStranger: Not many people know much about his past, [[UpToEleven even the authors.]]

* {{Expy}}: She's a twisted version of ''Fanfic/{{Cupcakes}}'' Pinkie Pie that is not played for any kinds of laughs.

* BreakTheCutie: Every. Single. Pony.

* BreakTheCutie: When Equestria first encountered Earth, she was excited. By the time Newfoals were commonplace, she was... less so.
** Even before the manifestation, she had also lost her parents to an attack by Sombra's forces, causing her to become something of a StepfordSmiler for a while.

* [[RenaissanceMan Renaissance Mare]]: The ''Case Files'' side-story reveals that [[BrilliantButLazy when she applied herself]], Lyra was close to being Twilight 2.0. Amongst other things, she personally oversaw the design of ArtificialLimbs, and various {{Magitek}} weapons and devices for the PHL to use.

* BreakTheCutie: Went completely crazy after Lyra's death.

* KnifeNut: Is very skilled with her blades, as Prime Rainbow Dash learns painfully.

* BadassNormal: Falls three stories after being BlownAcrossTheRoom by a party cannon, gets in a shotgun fight with a {{Teleport Spam}}ming KnifeNut Pinkie Pie, and takes a display case to the chest, all with apparently no ill effects.

* AdultFear: TCB Pinkie Pie, whom he hired to plan out his children's birthday party, ponified his family, and the only reason he didn't get converted along with them was because he was forced to do some extra work at the hospital and then got stuck in traffic. When he arrived home, [[NothingIsScarier the house was eerily silent and empty]] and it took some time before the realization hit him.

* AdultFear: He was rightfully and genuinely frightened that Applebloom could have become just as hateful and murderous towards the humans if she had stayed in the Empire any longer. And of course, there's his worries over how much Applejack changed for the worse, and [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone what]] [[DrivenToSuicide could]] happen if she were to realize exactly what she did to the humans and to her family.

* KnifeNut: Even TCB Trixie is a little disturbed at how well she wields a machete.

* ALoadOfBull: Naturally, being a minotaur.

* BadassBeard: [[http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/452659322?ga_submit_new=10%3A1399491884 According to official artwork]]. May also qualify as BeardOfEvil.

* BadassMustache: [[http://img11.deviantart.net/d06a/i/2015/131/f/2/aegis__by_haruaxeman-d8t2jlx.jpg His new portrait]] depicts him with one. [[WordOfGod Word of Fluffy]] is that [[ShrugOfGod it might not be canon]], and he drew it in [[ThrowItIn cause he was bored.]]

* SympathyForTheDevil: She expresses pity for the PER's founder Jacqueline Reitman for her inability to understand humans and ponies are really NotSoDifferent, calling her a "sad, strange little woman".

* NotSoDifferent: A source of some shame regarding her and Equestrian Resistance founder/leader Miss Harshwhinny.

** NotSoAboveItAll: She's just as prone to bloodlust and ultraviolence as the rest of Kraber's squad. [[NotSoDifferent And it falls to Aegis to keep her from arguing with Kraber and bringing down the PER on them.]]

* TheCynic: Possibly the most cynical character in the entire Spectrumverse, given that she seems to regard existence in general as a sort of CosmicHorrorStory, and all sides in the war as being NotSoDifferent from one another. Note that this doesn't make her a NietzscheWannabe, however.

* SmallRoleBigImpact: Want to know why his character folder is so big despite him appearing for only a handful of chapters in the main story? Well, there are actually a [[CreatorsFavorite good]] [[WriterOnBoard many]] [[SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped reasons]], but narrative-wise, Kraber serves to provide a human face to the members of the HLF and other people who wouldn't respond with nobility and heroism to a CrapsackWorld such as that of ''The Conversion Bureau''.
