Please do not add multiple tropes with a slash on the same bullet, as per How To Write An Example.


* BookEnds: [[spoiler:You kill them in the same spot the game began, where they stole Red's arm.]]



* WhereItAllBegan / BookEnds: [[spoiler:You kill them in the same spot the game began, where they stole Red's arm.]]



* AntiAntiChrist: They seems to be the only being in the Everhood capable of killing its inhabitants, up to and including ''the Everhood itself'', but '''really''' doesn't want to. Unfortunately for poor Pink, this is actually a [[DeconstructedTrope deconstruction]]: the Everhood is a world full of immortals who have gone insane from boredom, and Pink's job is to give them a MercyKill. Their reluctance to end their world is in fact prolonging their suffering, and they keep pinning people's deaths on Red and the Player because they can't handle the guilt.

Pink's reluctance to end their world is in fact prolonging their suffering, suffering along with everyone else, and they keep pinning people's deaths on Red and the Player because they can't handle the guilt.



* OtherworldlyAndSexuallyAmbiguous: is a [[OurSpiritsAreDifferent spirit being]] who appears naked but has no visible genitalia or nipples. DOES have a visibly defined butt, however, which is something impossible to miss when Pink's back is [[{{Mooning}} turned towards you]], ESPECIALLY when controlling them during combat.

** Part of their insistence that Red was the one making them murder seems to be a reference to how [[WhatTheHellHero the player might use that as an excuse for killing people]], which other characters counter, saying they had the ability to stop the player from killing people, which is backed up in the ''Yellow Doll'' and ''Alone'' endings where they reject the player's control.

* BigBad: Stole Red's arm and Blue Thief's legs, and is stated to be directly responsible for Everhood being a CrapsaccharineWorld. Later, [[spoiler:they order the other Mages to seal the doors and stop Red from {{Mercy Kill}}ing the populace to free them from their [[WhoWantsToLiveForever immortality]] just to keep their power over them]].

* WhyWontYouDie: He shouts this at Red during their battle just as he's about to be killed.

*** Adding onto the above points, the fight against the Evil Wizard has a few details: they call themselves [[spoiler:"THE ONE WHO HEARS GOD!"]] and the only colors of notes in that fight are [[spoiler:pink and red.]]

* RoomFullOfCrazy: When you're finally able to enter their basement then go right, you'll find out that [[spoiler:it's a long, ''long'' hallway covered in tally marks. And then Green Mage tells you each of them is [[TimeAbyss another year]], and that they had to [[AlienGeometries stretch the hallway into seeming infinity]] just to keep track of them all]]...

* StepfordSmiler: [[FacelessEye Lack of an actual smile aside]], their wacky, fun-loving personality hides [[spoiler:them taking the passage of the years especially hard. Green's the one keeping track of every year that passes, and the one most active, almost desperate, in finding new entertainments, to the point of admitting a battle to the death is the point they've felt the most alive in ''eons''. And in one of the afterlife meetings, They admit to throwing their own eye away, thus getting stranded in a forest completely blind for what could have been literal ages; when trying to explain, all they can resort to in the midst of an apparent manic episode is to confess ''[[AndIMustScream they were just that nightmarishly bored]].'']]

* KickTheDog: Their treatment of Grundall is bad enough but the implications that Haley is used as a test subject are even more heinous, given that they not only seem to have pushed Haley past a mental breaking point with their experiments but also [[spoiler: at the end of the game Haley states that Professor Orange kept them drugged to keep them from escaping.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: [[spoiler: While they lament in their notes about how the power structure of Everhood benefits mages above all other residents, they seem to have done nothing with their own privileges as a mage to try to change this, instead preferring to remain in the comfort of their keep]].

* OhCrap: If you are invited in after finishing their FetchQuest [[spoiler: and choose to kill them, they have this reaction as they recognize Red and realize they invited their killer into their home.]]

Added DiffLines:

* TheRival: Green ''adores'' the chance to fight Red in any capacity. [[spoiler: They even make a point of holding back until Red has their arm back and is going in for the kill in order to make it fair.]]


Added DiffLines:

* SecondaryColorNemesis: Green's cloak combined with their purple hands leans into this. [[spoiler: The fact that green is red's ''complementary'' color may hint that they're actually more interested in Red's goal than their employer's however.]]

* IHaveManyNames: Unusually for this trope, this is pulled off without a single word being spoken - if the player observes the sage for long enough, he will momentarily take a form resembling another messianic figure: [[{{UsefulNotes/Jesus}} Jesus Christ]].

King Koopa Copy was cut per TRS


* KingKoopaCopy: Of the Ganon copy variety. They are a big, imposing, and brutish SorcerousOverlord with a [[EvilSoundsDeep deep voice]] and two dark, scary castles, and a [[RottenRockAndRoll guitar-based boss theme]].
