The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at the Trope Launch Pad.

2. The Tracker is not special. He simply has access to a Tracking Device, which is special.

I'm currently overhauling the Among Us page to reflect the existence of three roles that got officially added to the game in June 2024
(seriously, why did nobody else do this already?), and I found this entry that seems… problematic.
…That's not Edible Theme Naming. That is a food-themed accessory. Which trope should be subbed in to replace the misused trope?
Oh, and speaking of the June 2024 roles, does the Tracker role count as a Scarily Competent Tracker? Its gimmick is placing a tracking beacon on another player so that their location always shows up on the Tracker's map. So it fits Scarily Competent Tracker in the raw sense of "the tracker always knows exactly where you are", but I'm not sure whether or not the limitations of only being able to track one player at a time, having to get within touching range to plant the tracking beacon, or being reliant on a tracking beacon instead of one's own senses and/or environmental awareness would disqualify it. (Seriously, using a tracking beacon to be a Scarily Competent Tracker feels like cheating…)
