History Roleplay / WeAreOnASpaceAdventure

%%* MohsScaleOfScienceFictionHardness: All the way from 2 to 4.5.

Hey there, new crewmember, it’s nice to have you aboard. This is The Troperia, or, at least, this is the page for the games that take place ''aboard'' The Troperia. It all began back in June 2015 with the launch of the forum game: We, The Tropers, Are All Stuck In A Spaceship [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14354832980A86977300&page=1]], eventually, and unfortunately, dropping away into the realm where so many great threads go when posts drop away.

'''Ee~! Ok, but don’t be sad, gentle readers! ‘Cause ''iiit’s baaaack''~! Yes! It’s back! Revived from the ashes in a brand new home and form. Now housed in the Forum RP section of our forums, We Are on a Space Adventure (or W.A.S.A.) [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=1]] (make sure you sign up before you play, I rarely… [[{{pun}} byte]]~, he-he)-'''

!! Tropes fitting both games
%%* AliensSpeakingEnglish - Though there are exceptions this is pretty dominant.
%%* CoolShip – the Troperia, several personal crafts
%%* ElementalPowers – Chris, Merrick, Greg, Jiko...etc.

%%* LongLived – Various characters and races, including the Echireans and the Kirina.

* PowerPerversionPotential – When you have powerful people in relationships…sometimes things slip out. Mostly from the [=OT3=] and Lex & Jiko.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot – As expected with these sort of games, sometimes rl kicks in and pulls people away.
%%* SpaceWestern – Naturally.

* UnwillingRoboticisation – One of Engie’s go to ‘solutions’ for various issues.

!! Tropes fitting We Are on a Space Adventure [[spoiler: -cough- W.A.S.A. –cough-]]
* AccidentalKidnapping - Russell during a Tour of the Troperia on Nos Lycarin, the ship took off despite the fact the captain was told in advance that someone was being toured the ship by Michael and Amos.[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=187#4662]] Subverted in that case, kinda. Since Russell was planning originally to stowaway on the ship anyway... Still on the other hand, he didn't actually do that or anything to provoke this, even if he planned to.
* AFriendInNeed – Various, but notably one particular interaction between Rylan (Matthew), Jiko, Lex: [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=96#2389]]

* CorporateWarfare - The Darkwatch Defence & Security Corporation. They are a private military unto themselves, whose "alleged" criminality led to them being banned from Terra. But who needs a homeworld when Darkwatch basically owns a few?
* DanceBattler – Lex is trained in the Kirina martial art - E’rala Psivis ‘The Martial Dance’, which can be as deadly as it is graceful.
* DesignerBabies: Matthew, Blake and the rest of Project Ascension, with Michael being a more benign example. [[spoiler:The sisters count too.]]

%%* ExtraOreDinary/DishingOutDirt: Chris.

* EvilInc - The Darkwatch Defence & Security Corporation. "Alleged" crimes include, but are not limited to; systematic detention, oppression of civilians, surveillance, and large-scale genocide. And to top it off, Darkwatch has been known to "allegedly" rabble-rouse populations so they can be awarded protection contracts to quell their artificial uprisings.
* FullFrontalAssault – Rakiri, though subverted, considering certain parts of his anatomy were originally as detailed as a Ken doll. Greg has also had a few instances of this, especially when he’s wearing his more flammable clothes.
* FullNameUltimatum: Blake did somthing on these lines after Matthew got arrested in Nos Lycarin. It is quite effective on him as well, atleast when said by his brother like that.[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=161#4025]]
* HumanOutsideAlienInside – Jiko has, quite literally, an inner Echirean. [[spoiler: Aur's internal organs are no longer human due to his use of the scroll.]]
* HalfHumanHybrid – Greg is part Alphyxi, a race of fire-manipulators. Matthew was, effectively, designed as a human with a genetic cocktail from dozens of species. Arif is part-Maximatan, a race of human-ish creatures with coloured skin tones.
* LivingLieDetector - Both Arif and Michael pulled this trick on Matthew it seems when he was falsely introducing himself to Greg and the rest of the [=OT3=]; even if they didn’t call him out on it publicly.
* LongevityTreatment
** Jiko was mixed with an Echirean and therefore has a portion of their life span.
** Silas has received treatments that are pretty standard in his region of space, which will extend his natural lifespan into the thousands of years and possibly longer. He's currently 51, though he appears, and acts, more like he's in his mid-twenties.
** Bexahn, like most Primes, has an even more advanced treatment that renders her more or less immortal as far as aging is concerned; she's ''at least'' a few thousand years old and shows no signs of slowing down.
* OrwellianRetcon - A small one. When Bexahn originally arrived, the name of her ship was mentioned once as the ''Understanding''. When she returned to her ship later (several pages of the RP having gone by), it was referred to as the ''Certum''. If you go back to the post with her original arrival, you'll find that the reference to her ship has since been edited to the new name.
* PardonMyKlingon - Lex, Xirzan and Michael have all done this on a few occasions, likely others as well.
* PressurePoint - Shortly after vis introduction, Andris easily incapacitates an opponent by "lightly touching the back of his neck", which causes him to pass out immediately.
* QuitYourWhining - Matthew did this to Greg when he started doubting he was worthy of being captain after his Alphyxi awakening[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=61#1518]].
* RammingAlwaysWorks - Fortunately, [[SubvertedTrope it doesn't]], because Andris anticipates it, but that doesn't stop the Thing in Silas's Mind from programming Bexahn's ship to crash into Andris's. To hedge its bets, the Thing also rigs the ship to explode, but Andris anticipates this as well and sends a drone to investigate the ship rather than board it visself.
* RescueIntroduction - Matthew rescuing Arif on GLX, and the party rescuing Amos aboard the A.R.R Beluga.
* RidiculouslyCuteCritter – Merrick’s twin Sleekets, Aesir and Vanir, little hamster-sized sheep creatures.
* RobotBuddy - Autonomous Robotic Intelligence Assistant - or Aria. While she is small, cleanly-designed, and friendly; she is a robotic combat assistant; which means she has an arsenal of firepower within her storage units.
* RunningGag - The consistent mention of "space hotdogs", whose primary difference to regular hotdogs is the fact that they are made in space.
* SlidingScaleOfRobotIntelligence

* SpaceX - Several seemingly regular products have been "improved" by putting space in their names. Gotta love those Space Hotdogs.
* TitleDrop - Amos while recruiting Nova to the Troperia team. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=181#4510]] Then later again by Russell after getting kidnapped by the Troperia.
* UnwillingRoboticisation - Godsgift cracks a couple of [[BlackComedy very dark jokes]] about forcibly giving organic sophonts mechanical brains due to his contempt for the limitations of flesh and neurons. At least, they ''seem'' to be jokes.
* WorthIt – Various characters doing silly things for the sake of laughs (Chris controlling a can that caused Xirzan to believe the ship was haunted by a demonic force, [[RefugeInAudacity Rylan putting the ship potentially at risk during the Nos Lycarin landing]][[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=14547905030A56208200&page=99#2473]])

* AliensSpeakingEnglish - Though there are exceptions this is pretty dominant.

* HumanAliens[=/=]RubberForeheadAliens: A large portion of the cast.
* LongLived – Various characters and races, including the Echireans and the Kirina.

** Okay perhaps Subverted in that case, kinda. Since Russell was planning originally to stowaway on the ship anyway... Still on the other hand, he didn't actually do that or anything to provoke this, even if he planned to.

* BloodKnight: A few characters, like Matthew.

* ElementalPowers: A few of the cast has them.
** AnIcePerson: Merrick
