History Tropers / Talden

A fellow gentleman coming from the flat land of Belgium.

Describing himself as ''"A stupid fanboy with a head full of projects"'', Talden is a [[MostTropersAreYoungNerds young nerd]] who dabbles in a lot of different subjects. While he has some limited drawing abilities, went to an animation school, and aspire to be a video editor one day, what he likes the most is creating stories and characters. Which probably explains why, after making first contact with TV Tropes in 2008, [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife never left it and keeps consulting it after every work of fiction he sees]].

Originally French-speaker, he had very limited education in English before he found a video from ThatGuyWithTheGlasses. Seeing that he could understand spoken English, he kept watching three to five videos a day for several years, and now possess enough vocabulary to be somewhat fluent in the language. [[AwesomeByAnalysis People are frequently amazed by that]].

Is a '''huge''' fan of whatever Ankama produces, in any format available (video games, comic books, animated series, merchandising, ...). He has produced a small number of fan works related to them, the most recent being a comedy web show called ''Krosmaster Funnies'' (a series a humorous scenes acted by miniatures from the eponymous board game). Other than that, he's also a frequent player of TabletopRPG, BoardGames and CollectibleCardGame, has a particular love for WesternAnimation in general, and also does other geeky things like watching DoctorWho, MyLittlePony, ''et cetera''.

He seems to possess an overactive brain, constantly spouting new ideas and stories as days goes by. This capacity is only matched by his legendary laziness, meaning only very few of his projects will see the light of day. He even started a series of vlogs [[LampshadeHanging detailing those unfinished projects]]... only for ''that'' to fall off the roof [[HilariousInHindsight after a couple episodes]].


Has a [[http://twitter.com/#!/_Talden Twitter]], though most of the time in French. His Youtube channel ''[[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTycDw_tz_Y6AQ2s4XK4g8Q Chez Talden]]'' is also mostly in French. So is his [[http://talden.deviantart.com/ DeviantArt account]], not that it matters when you look at [[SelfDeprecation badly drawn pictures]].


!!Tropes that apply to Talden includes:

* AscendedFanboy: Followed Ankama's works for years before visiting their office (twice!) and getting some recognition for his ''Krosmaster'' Funnies show.
* AwesomeByAnalysis: Thanks to TV Tropes, he can speak for hours about things he has not actually seen, just by reading synopsis and analysis of the work in question.
** He got significantly better at English after hundreds of hours watching reviewers on the Internet.
* BrilliantButLazy: Has to maintain an agenda to keep track of every fan project he thought of, but has yet to realize any of it.
* DevelopmentHell: He was considering to make a "Wakfu: the AbridgedSeries" since ''2009'' (when the first season wasn't even over), and first mentioned [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=3y53mkawj1570lb2sopcg4qw&page=3#52 it]] in August of 2010. To this day, we haven't seen anything yet.
* EloquentInMyNativeTongue
* EverythingsBetterWithPlushies: He possess quite a neat collection, [[GrowingUpSucks most of them bought well after his twenties]].
* EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench: ''Mais bien entendu.'' [[note]]"But of course"[[/note]]
* [[FriendToAllLivingThings Friend to All Animals]] [[FriendToAllChildren and Children]]: To the point of being a superpower. Every cat, dog, unusual company animal or young child will end up best friend with him.
* {{Lurker}}: Will very infrequently post on any forums, but read them every day and is always on synch with the current topic.
* NightmareFetishist: He has spend so long on {{Imageboards}} looking at weird porn that he started to enjoy it, and actually find most of them hilarious.
** He also reads FrankenFran with glee.
** Subverted, however, as he can't stand horror movies at all.
* OneOfUs: Well, duh.
* SuperpowerLottery: Has probably lost it, since all he got was Super Frienship (see before), and a surprising ability to know when a new video from Le JoueurDuGrenier has been posted.

Any contribution is welcome to enlighten Talden about himself. Really, go ahead.

The '{{Fanboy}}' part becomes relevant whenever Ankama (creators of {{Dofus}} and {{Wakfu}}) comes into play. He played the MMOG for years now, is fluent with every aspect of the mythos, played the [[CollectibleCardGame card game]] on a competitive level, went to every convention they ever made, and could probably talk about the animated series for hours. Some of his closest friends actually work in the company, and it would be an understatement to say he dreams of working there one day.

The 'with a head full of projects' is also somewhat linked to Ankama, since most of his future fan works turn around the very same universe. He also created several stories for comic-books, at least two complete TabletopRPG systems, and a few AlternateUniverse to play into... [[BrilliantButLazy all of them]] [[DevelopmentHell incomplete]]. One day maybe, he'll kick himself to finish some of those projects.

* AscendedFanboy: Was allowed to visit Ankama studios and get a small interview for winning a contest with his only [[http://youtu.be/7art0KXuHfI video]] made at the time.

* DevelopmentHell: He was considering to make a "Wakfu: the AbridgedSeries" since the beginning of 2010, and first mentionned [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=3y53mkawj1570lb2sopcg4qw&page=3#52 it]] in August of the same year. To this day, we haven't seen anything yet.

** Averted, however, since he can't stand horror movies at all.

Originally French-speaker, he had very limited education in English before he found a video from ThatGuyWithTheGlasses. Seeing that he could perfectly understand spoken English, he kept watching three to five videos a day for several years, and now possess enough vocabulary to be somewhat fluent in the language.

A fellow gentleman coming from the little (and flat) land of Belgium. Also a complete and stubborn fanboy of the {{Dofus}}/{{Wakfu}} universe, in case it wasn't obvious enough. After months reading thousands tropes, I've decided to put some "frenchness" into some of them, providing examples the English tropers may not know.

Currently working on keeping up to date:
* {{Dofus}}
* {{Wakfu}}

Also have provided some examples in those Tropes:
* AtopTheFourthWall
* DefaceOfTheMoon
* {{Feelies}}
* HyperspaceArsenal
* NightmareFuel
* OnlyYouCanRepopulateMyRace
* OurDragonsAreDifferent
* And a few TroperTales, NightmareFuel and FetishFuel as well.

A bientôt! 8)
