I'm a second year college student studying music education and musical theatre, so perhaps it's not a surprise that Tv Tropes has ruined my life. I'm often characterized by my sudden and extreme obsessions (which this website has decidedly ''not'' helped), which changes on pretty much a monthly basis. Offhand, I've gone through phases of ''Franchise/StarWars'', ''Series/{{Lost}}'', ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed'', ''Manga/DeathNote'', ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', and ''Franchise/{{Halo}}'', and quite frankly I'm on the verge of falling back into any of those obsessions at the drop of a hat. Currently, I'm back on ''Lost''.

I'm also a frequent contributor on both the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=6vic3f9h1cy5qivsenw8llok Complete Monster thread]] and the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15255322860A44444400 Magnificent Bastard thread]], though I've admittedly not been on either thread for long; my shtick appears to have become potholing names, as I've potholed more entries than I've proposed. I take those threads seriously and try my best to not annoy anyone on there through idiocy or badgering. Plus, I've rather come to enjoy most of the people in there, so come at them at your own peril.

!!Tropes!
[[folder:Tropes I Believe Apply To Me]]
* AmbiguousDisorder: I have been unofficially diagnosed with high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder[[note]]What I'm referring to by saying "unofficially diagnosed" is that people who are qualified to sit me down, test me, and officially diagnose me have simply skipped those steps and straight up told me[[/note]], which frankly explains a lot about me, including my near constant twitching, incredibly linear thought process, short-term memory issues, and tendency to obsess over minor details. I'm in the process of getting officially tested, but that's still a while away.
* BerserkButton:
** Don't call me a retard; see above.
** Don't ever bring up my dad. I will not hesitate to verbally power bomb you into the ground.
** In general, insulting the people who raised me, my mother and stepfather, is a very fast way to get on my bad side.
* BeyondTheImpossible: My proudest moment as a theatre student was when I made my singing professor actually [[ManlyTears cry]] with my rendition of "For Forever" from ''Theatre/DearEvanHansen''.
* BunnyEarsLawyer: I may be quirky, energetic, and downright odd, but make no mistake: when I need to do something, I'll see it through to the end, and I'll make it work, especially if that "something" involves singing or acting.
* DitzyGenius: Academically, I got a 32 on my [=ACTs=], passed all of my AP exams, and have gotten a 4.0 in all of my college semesters so far. In the real world, I once tried to make a waffle without plugging in the waffle maker and have consistently mixed up my left and right shoes.
* EndearinglyDorky: The closest I'll ever get to attractive is cute and I'm not afraid to use it. I'm well known for going on eager rants about things I enjoy, and I apparently become very animated when I know someone is listening to me.
* ManlyTears: I have a tendency to cry at both serious and frankly odd moments. I'm no stranger to crying at ''Theatre/TheSpongeBobMusical'' at one in the morning.
* MotorMouth: When I start talking, it's hard to get me to stop. It's something I'm trying to work on.
* OldShame: I once tried to EP [[Series/BreakingBad Jack Welker]] on the CM thread. To say that I got shot down fast is a severe {{understatement}}.
* PrecisionFStrike: While I curse pretty often, I try to avoid F-bombs so that the moments that I ''do'' say them stand out.
* SelfServingMemory: I have a family history of self-serving delusions that fog my memory and make me a rather UnreliableNarrator. I tend to rely on others to keep my head on straight in that regard.

These are characters who were each deemed a CompleteMonster at one point, but were later disqualified for one reason or another based on the consensus of [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=6vic3f9h1cy5qivsenw8llok the cleanup thread]].

Please note that this is ''NOT'' for characters who were brought up in the thread but were voted down, nor for characters who were unapproved to begin with and then cut. Only characters who were actually approved by the thread and later cut should go here.

Also note that while participants are allowed to have these characters re-evaluated provided they're not on the Never Again list, the reasons for their removal must be addressed. Providing a link to their cut post is also preferred.

[[AC:''Series/{{Arrow}}'']]
[[folder:Examples]]
* "[[Recap/ArrowS1E12Vertigo Vertigo]]" & "[[Recap/ArrowS2E7StateVQueen State v. Queen]]": [[TheAggressiveDrugDealer The Count]], real name [[AdaptationalNameChange Cecil Adams]] and also known as Count Vertigo, is a sociopathic drug peddler who seeks to push a new drug, known as [[FantasticDrug Vertigo]], onto the streets of Starling City. The Count kidnaps people to serve as test subjects as he tries to perfect Vertigo. He injects them with the drug, causing them excruciating pain, then offers them a gun with one bullet: [[SadisticChoice they can shoot the Count for revenge, or shoot themselves to end the pain]]. The suicide rate, after nearly thirty victims, is one hundred percent. He also tests the drug [[BadBoss on his own minions]], as well as using it as a weapon. The Count sees the fatalities that result from Vertigo as making the drug even better, comparing it to a wine ripened with age. After breaking out of prison, and helping The Dollmaker escape, the Count poisons vaccines with Vertigo to spread the drug to unsuspecting people. Having accepted an offer from Brother Blood to kill the Arrow, and discovering the vigilante's true identity, the Count takes Felicity Smoak hostage to lure the Arrow, and threatens to kill her with an injection of Vertigo before being killed. A [[AxCrazy deranged sadist]] who considers killing to be "one of life's great pleasures", the Count revels in his crimes, spreading death and misery with a smile on his face.
* "[[Recap/ArrowS2E3BrokenDolls Broken Dolls]]": [[SoftSpokenSadist Barton Mathis]], better known as "[[SerialKiller the Dollmaker]]", enjoys targeting young and beautiful women in order to "[[CreepyDoll preserve their beauty]]". After kidnapping his victims, Dollmaker [[CruelAndUnusualDeath brutally murders them by pouring liquid polymer down their throats]] until they drown, before dressing them up as dolls and putting the corpses on display. He had murdered at least eight women with said method before being arrested by Quentin Lance. After escaping from prison thanks to Count Vertigo, Dollmaker continues his killing spree while harboring a grudge against Lance. Planning to make him suffer, Dollmaker murders a young woman while forcing Lance to listen to her screams via a telephone. He also attempts to kidnap and murder Felicity Smoak the same way. Later, Dollmaker kidnaps both Lance and his daughter Laurel and attempts to [[ForcedToWatch force him to watch his daughter die]].
* ''Arrow: Season 2.5'' official tie-in comic book series: [[Characters/ShazamBlackMarvelFamily Khem-Adam]] is the leader of Onslaught, a group of fanatical, religious terrorists, who took advantage of the [[EvilPowerVacuum power vacuum]] in [[{{Qurac}} Kahndaq]] after the previous dictatorship was overthrown. His main goal is to force his country back into the old, barbaric ways, with women in particular being reduced to nothing more than serving the needs of the men. He has a group of young women forcefully abducted for nothing more than undergoing school education -- after murdering their teacher right in front of their eyes. He is later shown to orchestrate mass executions on any one who dares to oppose his godly quest, and assigning the girls to his men as personal slaves to be beaten and raped. When one of the girls kills her abuser in self-defense and manages to escape, he immediately orders the rest of the group to be executed as an example. [[HeManWomanHater Misogynistic]], cruel, and with a [[KnightTemplar delusional fantasy of carrying out the will of the Old Gods]], Khem-Adam [[EvenEvilHasStandards earns the disgust of even the hardened, criminal members]] of the ComicBook/SuicideSquad, with one member in particular being a former military leader of the overthrown dictatorship.
* Season 3:
** "[[Recap/ArrowS3E1TheCalm The Calm]]" & "[[Recap/ArrowS3E13Canaries Canaries]]": [[AdaptationalVillainy Werner Zytle]] proves to be a worthy successor following the death of the original Count Vertigo, taking control of the drug and [[SupernaturalFearInducer modifying it]] to make the user hallucinate [[IKnowWhatYouFear their worst fears]]. He is [[EstablishingCharacterMoment introduced]] forcing a fellow gang leader to take the drug before killing him and taking control of the other gangs in Starling City. He decides a reasonable way to attempt an assassination on Oliver Queen is by [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill firing a rocket launcher into a restaurant full of people]]. He later tries to kill the remaining gang leaders of Starling City by blowing up the entire stadium they were in; the stadium contained around 20,000 people. In his next appearance, Zytle escapes police custody with the help of a reporter whose family he threatened. He then forces said reporter to try to kill the Arrow via suicide bomb. He then takes several hostages in a drug lab, forces them to make more of the Vertigo drug, and when Team Arrow comes to the rescue, he attempts to burn his hostages alive.
** Flashback sequences: [[GeneralRipper General Matthew Shrieve]] initially appears as a [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure reasonable and helpful]] military officer before being revealed as a callous extremist. Regarding China as an economic threat to the United States, Shrieve intends to use the Omega virus to destabilize the country, [[LackOfEmpathy caring nothing for the lives that would be destroyed by his actions]]. After usurping Amanda Waller as the head of [[Characters/ArrowverseARGUSAndTaskForceX A.R.G.U.S.]], Shrieve sends a squad of soldiers after Oliver and the Yamashiros, including [[WouldHurtAChild young Akio]], to eliminate [[HeKnowsTooMuch potential witnesses]] to his impending crimes. Unleashing the Omega virus on Hong Kong, causing thousands of infections and deaths, Shrieve causes the virus to spread even further by disguising injections of it as a vaccine. When Akio is infected, Oliver and Maseo confront Shrieve for a possible cure. After handing them a supposed cure, Shrieve reveals that it was only insulin for his diabetes, using this as a distraction in an attempt to kill them both. After Akio succumbs to the virus, Shrieve taunts his parents, cruelly laughing in their faces. Although the virus is ultimately prevented from spreading beyond Hong Kong, hundreds, if not thousands suffered its effects, something Shrieve shows no remorse for. Militant and xenophobic, Shrieve, despite his [[KnightTemplar delusions of righteousness]], is ultimately nothing more than a smug mass murderer devoid of conscience.
* Season 4: Lonnie "[[AnarchyIsChaos Anarky]]" Machin is [[AdaptationalVillainy far worse]] than his comic counterpart. A former mob enforcer, Anarky was fired by many organizations for being too unhinged. His attempts to join [[Characters/ArrowverseTheHIVE H.I.V.E.]] have Anarky attempting to murder mayoral candidate Jessica Danforth, and when that fails Anarky instead kidnaps Danforth's daughter, sadistically breaking her fingers. After getting his face burned by Thea Queen, Anarky develops a creepy obsession towards her. Escaping imprisonment, Anarky seeks revenge by killing his foster parents and then targeting [[Characters/ArrowverseDamienDarhk Damien Darhk]] for rejecting him from H.I.V.E.. Anarky kidnaps Darhk's wife, Ruvé, and his daughter, trying to have them tortured. Just before H.I.V.E. carries out [[NukeEm Genesis]] to bombard the world with nuclear weapons, Anarky rampages through Tevat Noah, H.I.V.E.'s sanctuary against the apocalypse, killing multiple guards and Thea's boyfriend, rigging the entire structure to explode, while taking Darhk's family hostage, successfully killing Ruvé. Five months later, Anarky attempts to detonate a bomb that would destroy at least half of Star City. Motivated only by his sick satisfaction of hurting others, Anarky proves to be one of the most destructive monsters Team Arrow has ever faced.

During his [[Recap/TheFlash2014S2E9RunningToStandStill second appearance]], the Trickster uncaringly abandons Axel and teams up with Mark Mardon[=/=]Weather Wizard for a chance to kill the Flash. And to do so, he disguises himself as a mall Santa and distributes over a hundred gift-disguised bombs to children, and forces the Flash to let Mardon torture him to death on threat of detonating the bombs and killing the children and their families.
* Season 2: [[Characters/ArrowverseHunterZolomon Hunter Zolomon]], aka [[EvilCounterpart Zoom]], is a sociopathic speedster from [[Characters/ArrowverseEarth2 Earth-2]] who was a notorious SerialKiller with a staggering body count both before and after becoming a speedster. Dying from abusing the Velocity drug, Zoom tries to steal the speed of Jay Garrick, the Flash of Earth-3, before taking Jay's identity to [[HopeCrusher create hope so he can crush it]], while imprisoning the real Jay as a trophy. Discovering Earth-1, Zoom sends meta-humans to attack, then gains [[Characters/ArrowverseBarryAllen Barry Allen]]'s trust by pretending to be Jay. In their first confrontation, Zoom breaks Barry's spine and shows him off for the city to see. Zoom also takes Harry Wells's daughter, Jesse, hostage to force Harry into helping him steal the Flash's speed. Once cured, Zoom unleashes an army of meta-humans on Central City for the fun of it, before forcing Barry to watch as he murders Barry's father, Henry. As his endgame, Zoom makes a DoomsdayDevice to [[OmnicidalManiac destroy the entire multiverse]], only sparing Earth-1 as his personal domain. A brutal, sadistic maniac devoid of remorse, Zoom remains one of the most monstrous enemies Barry has ever faced.

In the present, Eshu arrives in Detroit under the guise of an ambassador and continues his quests to find the totems. To achieve his goals, Eshu bribes a thief into stealing the Fire Totem for him, then [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness promptly kills the man once he's no longer of any use]].

* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'': "[[Recap/ArrowS1E12Vertigo Vertigo]]" & "[[Recap/ArrowS2E7StateVQueen State v. Queen]]": [[TheAggressiveDrugDealer The Count]], real name [[AdaptationalNameChange Cecil Adams]] and also known as Count Vertigo, is a sociopathic drug peddler who seeks to push a new drug, known as [[FantasticDrug Vertigo]], onto the streets of Starling City. The Count kidnaps people to serve as test subjects as he tries to perfect Vertigo. He injects them with the drug, causing them excruciating pain, then offers them a gun with one bullet: [[SadisticChoice they can shoot the Count for revenge, or shoot themselves to end the pain]]. The suicide rate, after nearly thirty victims, is one hundred percent. He also tests the drug [[BadBoss on his own minions]], as well as using it as a weapon. The Count sees the fatalities that result from Vertigo as making the drug even better, comparing it to a wine ripened with age. After breaking out of prison, and helping The Dollmaker escape, the Count poisons vaccines with Vertigo to spread the drug to unsuspecting people. Having accepted an offer from Brother Blood to kill the Arrow, and discovering the vigilante's true identity, the Count takes Felicity Smoak hostage to lure the Arrow, and threatens to kill her with an injection of Vertigo before being killed. A [[AxCrazy deranged sadist]] who considers killing to be "one of life's great pleasures", the Count revels in his crimes, spreading death and misery with a smile on his face.
* "[[Recap/ArrowS2E3BrokenDolls Broken Dolls]]": [[SoftSpokenSadist Barton Mathis]], better known as "[[SerialKiller the Dollmaker]]", enjoys targeting young and beautiful women in order to "[[CreepyDoll preserve their beauty]]". After kidnapping his victims, Dollmaker [[CruelAndUnusualDeath brutally murders them by pouring liquid polymer down their throats]] until they drown, before dressing them up as dolls and putting the corpses on display. He had murdered at least eight women with said method before being arrested by Quentin Lance. After escaping from prison thanks to Count Vertigo, Dollmaker continues his killing spree while harboring a grudge against Lance. Planning to make him suffer, Dollmaker murders a young woman while forcing Lance to listen to her screams via a telephone. He also attempts to kidnap and murder Felicity Smoak the same way. Later, Dollmaker kidnaps both Lance and his daughter Laurel and attempts to [[ForcedToWatch force him to watch his daughter die]].
* ''Arrow: Season 2.5'' official tie-in comic book series: [[Characters/ShazamBlackMarvelFamily Khem-Adam]] is the leader of Onslaught, a group of fanatical, religious terrorists, who took advantage of the [[EvilPowerVacuum power vacuum]] in [[{{Qurac}} Kahndaq]] after the previous dictatorship was overthrown. His main goal is to force his country back into the old, barbaric ways, with women in particular being reduced to nothing more than serving the needs of the men. He has a group of young women forcefully abducted for nothing more than undergoing school education -- after murdering their teacher right in front of their eyes. He is later shown to orchestrate mass executions on any one who dares to oppose his godly quest, and assigning the girls to his men as personal slaves to be beaten and raped. When one of the girls kills her abuser in self-defense and manages to escape, he immediately orders the rest of the group to be executed as an example.
[[HeManWomanHater Caleb]] (general rewrite)
Misogynistic]], cruel, and with a [[KnightTemplar delusional fantasy of carrying out the will of the Old Gods]], Khem-Adam [[EvenEvilHasStandards earns the disgust of even the hardened, criminal members]] of the ComicBook/SuicideSquad, with one member in particular being a former military leader of the overthrown dictatorship.

He later tries to kill the remaining gang leaders of Starling City by blowing up the entire stadium they were in; the stadium contained around 20,000 people. In his next appearance, Zytle escapes police custody with the help of a reporter whose family he threatened. He then forces said reporter to try to kill the Arrow via suicide bomb. He then takes several hostages in a drug lab, forces them to make more of the Vertigo drug, and when Team Arrow comes to the rescue, he attempts to burn his hostages alive.
** Flashback sequences: [[GeneralRipper General Matthew Shrieve]] initially appears as a [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure reasonable and helpful]] military officer before being revealed as a callous extremist. Regarding China as an economic threat to the United States, Shrieve intends to use the Omega virus to destabilize the country, [[LackOfEmpathy caring nothing for the lives that would be destroyed by his actions]]. After usurping Amanda Waller as the head of [[Characters/ArrowverseARGUSAndTaskForceX A.R.G.U.S.]], Shrieve sends a squad of soldiers after Oliver and the Yamashiros, including [[WouldHurtAChild young Akio]], to eliminate [[HeKnowsTooMuch potential witnesses]] to his impending crimes. Unleashing the Omega virus on Hong Kong, causing thousands of infections and deaths, Shrieve causes the virus to spread even further by disguising injections of it as a vaccine. When Akio is infected, Oliver and Maseo confront Shrieve for a possible cure. After handing them a supposed cure, Shrieve reveals that it was only insulin for his diabetes, using this as a distraction in an attempt to kill them both. After Akio succumbs to the virus, Shrieve taunts his parents, cruelly laughing in their faces. Although the virus is ultimately prevented from spreading beyond Hong Kong, hundreds, if not thousands suffered its effects, something Shrieve shows no remorse for. Militant and xenophobic, Shrieve, despite his [[KnightTemplar delusions of righteousness]], is ultimately nothing more than a smug mass murderer devoid of conscience.
* Season 4: Lonnie "[[AnarchyIsChaos Anarky]]" Machin is [[AdaptationalVillainy far worse]] than his comic counterpart. A former mob enforcer, Anarky was fired by many organizations for being too unhinged. His attempts to join [[Characters/ArrowverseTheHIVE H.I.V.E.]] have Anarky attempting to murder mayoral candidate Jessica Danforth, and when that fails Anarky instead kidnaps Danforth's daughter, sadistically breaking her fingers. After getting his face burned by Thea Queen, Anarky develops a creepy obsession towards her. Escaping imprisonment, Anarky seeks revenge by killing his foster parents and then targeting [[Characters/ArrowverseDamienDarhk Damien Darhk]] for rejecting him from H.I.V.E.. Anarky kidnaps Darhk's wife, Ruvé, and his daughter, trying to have them tortured. Just before H.I.V.E. carries out [[NukeEm Genesis]] to bombard the world with nuclear weapons, Anarky rampages through Tevat Noah, H.I.V.E.'s sanctuary against the apocalypse, killing multiple guards and Thea's boyfriend, rigging the entire structure to explode, while taking Darhk's family hostage, successfully killing Ruvé. Five months later, Anarky attempts to detonate a bomb that would destroy at least half of Star City. Motivated only by his sick satisfaction of hurting others, Anarky proves to be one of the most destructive monsters Team Arrow has ever faced.

Adopting the persona of the Trickster after he's smitten by private investigator Megan Lockhart -- after failing to saw her in half -- the Trickster [[CopKiller murders the cops]] who try to detain him; leaves an exploding Flash statue in a public square; takes the customers of a novelty shop hostage while murdering one of them for giggles; and attempts to drown Barry Allen in [[StalkerWithACrush his twisted crusade]] to make Megan his criminal sidekick "Prank". Busted out of prison in his second appearance by his twisted fangirl Zoey Clark, the Trickster butchers the host of a talk show and announces his new crime spree, torturing and brainwashing the Flash into his sidekick while causing wanton mayhem throughout Central City and endangering the lives of countless innocents. The Trickster finally tries to hold a "trial" for the city by killing those who prosecuted him after ruling them "guilty against crimes of good taste!" and, even after this is thwarted, [[UngratefulBastard ditches Zoey to the police even after she saves him]]. Zany, witty, and absolutely in love with his own murderous psychosis, Jesse's tricks murdered countless innocent people and cement him as one of the Scarlet Speedster's worst foes.

* ''Fanfic/StressReliefRWBY''[[MultiversalConqueror Mobius]], the Anti-Monitor, is a being born of the AntiMatter universe. [[ManipulativeBastard Manipulating Dr. Harrison Nash Wells]] into freeing him, Mobius sadistically curses him to be his "herald", "Pariah", forcing him to try to warn universe after universe of Mobius's coming, to no avail, all while Mobius obliterates them, [[InTheirOwnImage feeding on the new antimatter]] he leaves in its place. After consuming countless universes, Mobius wipes out almost all existence and engineers the death of of his goodhearted counterpart Mar Novu, the Monitor. Upon his actions being reversed, Mobius simply returns to [[OmnicidalManiac obliterate existence]] again, to rule over what remains as its god king.

[[AC:Post-Crisis]]
* ''Series/Batwoman2019'' season 1: [[KillerCop Miguel Robles]], a corrupt member of the [[PrivateMilitaryContractors Crows]], is also the murderer of Lucius Fox. Having accidentally shot Fox when sent to beat him for his journal, Robles attempts to cover his tracks by sending assassins after those who can expose him. When this fails, Robles [[LegacyCharacter takes on the mantle]] of the deceased [[MadBomber Detonator]], kidnapping people and tying them to explosives with [[SadisticChoice chances to save themselves]] by pressing a detonator to destroy a building that contains information that might incriminate him. His final target is Wayne Tower, uncaring if he kills dozens or hundreds of innocents to escape his punishment.
* ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'' season 5: [[NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist Atropos]] is one of the [[Myth/ClassicalMythology three Fates]], alongside her sisters Clotho and Lachesis, with Atropos cutting the threads to end people's lives, something she took pleasure in doing. Relentless in her search for the Loom of Fate after it was dismantled and scattered by Clotho/Charlie, Atropos massacres her way through everything in her path, including Charlie's old punk band; the ''Series/{{Supernatural}}'' crew; and [[HeroKiller most of the Legends]]. Atropos kills either by stabbing her victims, or showing her true form--which is described as excruciatingly painful--while also being willing to torture her own sister Clotho to make her submit. In order to stall the Legends stranded in London, Atropos summons a ZombieApocalypse to ravage the entirety of Great Britain. The Fates use the Loom to rewrite reality, creating "Loomworld", a world devoid of freewill and choice. Here, Atropos forces her workers to sanitize history's records, while killing people on a whim.
