- Evil Is Cool: This incarnation of Vandal Savage is easily considered one of his best in media. A suave, sophisticated, and intelligent conqueror with genius plans.
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Merrit Rook is easily one of the show's most popular villains despite only appearing in one episode. Robin Willaims performance was acclaimed and won people over with both how intelligent he was and how sympathetic he was.

more tropes for Buggy
- Bad Boss: Buggy doesn't treat his subordinates well, and blows up a crewmember for having seemingly insulted his nose. He gets nicer over time, however, because he gains many new members who are much stronger than him, and he can't afford to treat them badly.
- Brilliant, but Lazy: Word of God says that Buggy could be one of the most powerful characters in the series if he ever bothered to train himself up. However, since his ambition is getting as much treasure as he can and not getting power, Buggy doesn't have much interest in furthering his fighting power and going up against real heavy hitters. The fact he was a member of the Roger's Pirates lends credence to the idea that he's actually very powerful. After becoming a Warlord and gaining stronger crewmembers, Buggy begins to gather more power as well and, once the Warlord System is abolished, he gathers some very powerful allies like Crocodile and Mihawk and challenges the Marine itself by issuing bounties on marines.
- Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Buggy is so greedy and materialistic that he's perplexed by Boodle, who considers Orange Town a treasure. At the same time he dismisses Luffy's hat (as well as the fact it was Shank's), because he believes that the only treasure is a classic chest with gold and gems.
- Flight: Buggy's detached body parts float, so he can make his entire body fly when he detaches it from his feet, which remain on the ground.
tropes for Aramaki
- Body Horror: The people who get their nutrients sucked out by his root become empty and emaciated husks unable to move.
tropes for Tama
- The Apprentice: At the end of the Wano Arc, Shinobu takes Tama under her wing to train her into a proper kunoichi.
tropes for Shinobu
- Formerly Fat: In her fight with the Admiral, Shinobu gets her nutrients sucked by Aramaki and becomes an empty husk. After being healed, she doesn't return to her usual, fat self but remains thin and becomes an attractive woman.
- Obliviously Beautiful: Inverted. Shinobu is a very ugly woman who used to be very attractive and still acts like she's beautiful, although she appears to have a bit of awareness of her ugliness since, when a former comrade is about to point out that she's not as beautiful as she used to be, Shinobu hits him in the nuts with a ninja technique. Played straight after she becomes thin and beautiful but Shinobu claims that her new body is ugly and threadbare.
- Sexy Mentor: At the end of the Wano Arc, Shinobu has her nutrients sucked out by Aramaki, making her body dried and emaciated. After being healed, she inexplicably becomes thin and attractive like she usually claims to be and, at the same time, reveals that Tama has become her apprentice to become a kunoichi.

There isn't an impossible dream, there are only people who give upThanks. Sorry about the length of this. Tomorrow I'll strive for 750 words or less.
- Unmanly Secret: In Murder Out of Commission, adventurous Congressman Tony Martinelli is visibly embarrassed when his wife tells his friends that Tony gardens for fun.
- Blood Quantum: Reservation police chief Traylor, his father (a fisherman and war veteran), his younger son, and a couple friends who are good with an axe and chainsaw work hard to kill lots of zombies and keep their community safe. Even considering how members of their tribe are immune to zombie bites, they manage to maintain a pocket of civilization for months longer than anyone else in the world.
- Dance of the Dead: The sci-fi club, the Go-Getter Girl head of the prom committee, an athletic but easily overwhelmed Pom-Pom Girl, a gym coach, the school bully, a garage band, and the cemetery groundskeeper all have to pick up the slack in defending their town against zombies, although not all of them work alongside each other.
- The Dead Don't Die: The local cops and a katana-wielding mortician kill quite a few zombies during the attack on their town. Store owners Hank and Bobby also manage to keep their store barricaded for a short while and then kill several zombies that get in. None of it accomplishes anything. The mortician turns out to be an alien and flees the planet, while the only other survivors owe their longevity to hiding in the woods and not getting within half a mile of any zombies.
- Ravenous (2017): The remaining members of a farming community and a businesswoman from the city who knows how to use a machete struggle to survive against the zombies, or at least kill lots of them as their chances of survival decrease.
- Black Tide Rising: The main protagonists are a history professor and his thirteen-year-old Waif-Fu-happy daughter. Among the tougher and more successful protagonists of the tie-in short stories are a paraplegic septuagenarian Friendly Sniper, a cheerleading coach, a bunch of gamers, a selectman on a Maine island, a family of moonshiners, and a farming community (plus refugees who include a Gun Nut stockbroker) that has a pack of zombie-killing guard dogs and ultimately goes on a Construction Vehicle Rampage.
- The Estuary: As zombies ravage an Irish village, leadership of the survivors ultimately falls to a resourceful author and his retired spy neighbor.
- World War Z: The book's anthology format and use of many Non Action Guys and professional soldiers as POV characters keeps this trope from showing up too much, but there are a few instances.
- Blind gardener Tomonoga Ijiro retreats into the wilderness during the outbreak, but he takes a sword with him and proceeds to decapitate every zombie he encounters. He later helps lead the rebuilding of Japan.
- Suburbanite Mary Jo Miller kills a zombie with her bare hands while defending her daughter and becomes the architect and mayor of a village designed to be inaccessible to zombies.
- T. Sean Collins watches a newscast of East Side New Yorkers fighting zombies with hammers, pipes, baseball bats, their bare hands and (in one case) a meat cleaver bolted to a hockey stick. Despite taking heavy casualties, it's implied that they won.
- Several of Todd Waino's squadmates during the march upcountry fought zombies before joining the military, including professional wrestler who used a zombie's corpse as a club and a nun who defended her Sunday school class with a candlestick.
- Roy Elliot makes a (non-embellished) propaganda film chronicling how three hundred college students armed with nothing but landscaping tools and ROTC practice rifles hold out against ten thousand zombies without any outside help.
- The Zombies of Lake Woebegotten: The local clergymen, waitress, conspiracy theorist and various others form a small vigilante group to take out any zombies that reach town limits and do a good job of it.
- The Strain: Pest exterminator Vassily Fet is the most adept character at fighting and surviving against the largely mindless vampire hordes, surpassing even the CDC scientist main protagonist.
Some fanfiction has t the point of divergence a bit earlier due to wanting stories where Karen forms an Enemy Mine situation with the heroes after releasing Anne and Lexi instead of being rejected and shot.
- Curse of the Pharaoh: In The Curse of the Bronze Lamp, an archaeologist dies from a scorpion sting soon after unearthing a tomb. Two of his colleagues vanish soon after a prophet curses them. They're faking their disappearances and plan to publicly reappear to discredit the supernatural hysteria behind the "curse". One of them is nearly murdered for real by an Opportunistic Bastard, but turns out to have been only been Left for Dead.
- Get Out!: In The Curse of the Bronze Lamp, John Loring survives a murder attempt at the hands of a trusted colleague who was stealing from him, then confronts the crook in his home after Fell makes a long summation while letting the villain think the murder was successful, largely to make him have a Villainous Breakdown about being hanged. John says that he won't press charges, but tells his formerly trusted friend to "get out", saying this three times in a row for emphasis.
- Fuzzy Nation: Near the end of the book, the MegaCorp personal have to vacate the planet due to its native species being recognized as sapient and are given three months to shut everything down and ship out anyone who doesn't wish to quit and work for the new government. The two main executives and The Dragon are also made to leave at the very beginning of that period, especially The Dragon due to the harm he's inflicted on Papa Fuzzy's family.
Papa Fuzzy: Get off my planet, you son of a bitch.
- Life Saving Misfortune: Jamie mentions that Aerys kicked Lord Rosby out of King's Landing for coughing during a feast and made Lord Ryyker leave as well for arguing on Rosby's behalf, but feels that this probably saved their lives due to how most of Aerys' remaining courtiers ended up being killed by their Ax-Crazy monarch, mobs of angry people, or Jamie himself.
- Locked Up and Left Behind: A nerve-wracking but ultimately positive version of this is referenced in chapter 91. Brandon Stark's squire, Ethan Glover, describes how he spent a year in the black cells, constantly expecting a horrible execution like the other members of Brandon Stark's party. Jamie tells him that Aerys may have planned some horrible execution for Ethan at one point, but probably just forgot about him after a while.
- Badass Bookworm: Joey dutifully does his own homework as well as Billy's and is a skilled sketch artist, but he's also quick to advocate fighting back against the terrorists (albeit in a Leeroy Jenkins way) and eventually overpowers one hostage-taker and takes his gun away.
- Reasonable Authority Figure:
- Dean Parker and the headmaster impose discipline where it's necessary but don't go for the maximum punishment and want to help their students rather than push them away. They also work hard to keep them calm and safe during the hostage standoff.
- General Kramer plans a successful rescue operation, cares about saving the hostages, doesn't overestimate his abilities, and isn't too proud to accept input from the information Billy smuggles out of the school.
- Fanon Discontinuity: A lot of fans really want to disregard Joey getting killed, given how he's one of the most interesting and well-developed characters of the movie and his death makes the final act needlessly dark.
- Ho Yay: The boys have a strong True Companions vibe and don't mind being shirtless in front of each other. Joey and Billy in particular are subjected to shipping by some fans.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: Robert Anderson (credited as "brave student") gets a notable moment of trying to summon help as the terrorists are taking over the school and then is singled out as one of the wealthy scions Cali views as particularly important hostages, but he never interacts with Billy's gang or significantly affects the plot.

Underground Lab
After Lincoln went missing, Liberty Leal go to the sewers of a rainy Royal Woods to find him, finding an Abandoned Laboratory and a mysterious gemstone called Umbra Gem there.
This Fanfic contains examples of:
- Abandoned Laboratory: The entire story takes place in this setting, Liberty comes to find Lincoln in this place after he went missing and she begins to find out the secrets from the place through logs.
- Alternate Universe: This Prequel takes place into a parallel universe to the one that Star from Beyond takes place, Royal Woods is always raining in this world, forcing everyone to wear raincoats to navigate through the city.
- Broken Pedestal: Lincoln once looked up to his sister called Luna, but after the divorce of the parents and the splitting of the family, he claims that she is a failure of sister now.
- Raincoat of Horror: Liberty and Lucy wear these due to the rainy setting of Royal Woods, they keep wearing these during the investigation of the Abandoned Laboratory in the sewers of Royal Woods, where they face hostile robots and Liberty is slowly losing her mind to the Umbra Gem.
Us tropers stick together.
All right. Let's see if this needs help before I launch the character entry for the King of Lucrece in Live A Live - Middle Ages and Spoiler Characters.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: His decision at the beginning of the chapter to hold a tournament where the winner will be granted the right to marry Alethea and be his heir indirectly threatens to doom all realities, because Streibough participates in it and fails to achieve the right to marry his love by being defeated by Oersted in the final round. For holding the tournament in the first place, Streibough plots to have the king killed by Oersted, who then takes the blame. This is just the beginning of Streibough’s revenge plot that eventually gives birth to Odio.
Additionally, I'm thinking to add this extra bullet point for Streibough's entry on Shadow Archetype:
- Streibough is also this to Huey Trumbull, representing the dark side of 'losing in a Love Triangle'. While Huey is on the losing side of the love relationship and continuously bullied by both Rachel and Kirk, he never even tries to think of killing either of them or sabotage their relationship, he is content with still being able to love and support Rachel one-sidedly, even though she does not reciprocate. Meanwhile, after realizing that he lost in the Love Triangle for Alethea by Oersted, Streibough instead plots to make Oersted’s life miserable and gaslight Alethea to love him, all while Oersted never antagonizes him, which eventually ends in utter disaster with both of Streibough and Alethea dead while Oersted snaps and becomes Odio.

- Blood Knight: Nihiru's corrupting influence has made him addicted to fighting and killing other people
- Death Seeker: He wants to be killed by someone stronger than him because the sins he committed five years ago under the influence of Nihiru (killing soldiers and innocent lives) can't be forgiven. Hyakkimaru grants him his wish.
- Dies Differently in Adaptation: He is killed by Hyakkimaru instead of killing himself to satisfy Nihiru.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: Despite being a serial killer, the only people he doesn't kill with or without the influence of Nihiru are his family. In this version, he decides not to kill his sister since she is the only family he has left and folds one last paper crane for her before setting off to retrieve it.
- Sanity Slippage: Wielding Nihiru has driven him to madness thanks to his need to satisfy the sword's bloodlust. Even after Hyakkimaru temporarily frees him from the sword's influence by disarming him, he still wants to wield it instead of reconciling with his sister and going back home with her.
- Used to Be a Sweet Kid: He used to be a kind and caring man who looked out for his sister before he was called off to war. Once he received Nihiru, though...

- Woobie Family:
- While Boy is the main woobie, the Andersons in general are pretty pitiable by the end of the movie after three of their members die under pretty pointless circumstances despite their efforts to remain neutral during the war. It doesn't help watching how they spend much of the movie looking for the unjustly imprisoned Boy without success.
- Dr. Witherspoon's family isn't any better off than the Andersons, as two of his sons are dead or dying after joining the Confederate army and another is still fighting. All of this clearly weighs on Dr. Witherspoon, especially since he can see that the South is losing the war and he's lost at least two children for nothing.
