Loves Cobra Omega
Might add some as well...

Boomer Kuwanger
Expy
Eyes Of Gold
Dark And Troubled Past: Former mass-murderer with no idea of what he was doing all the time.
My God What Have I Done: His reaction when he learned the true nature of his actions. This led to his...
Freak Out: Had a particularly crude one, bringing him to the border of insanity. He Got Better, apparently.
The Atoner: He has been dedicating his life to protect innocent ones and punish those who want to harm them.
Wouldn't Hit A Girl
Berserk Button: Target any innocent, especially a girl, in front of him.
Death Glare: His eyes tend to turn into these when he's particularly angry.
Fragile Speedster: Sure, he may be one of the fastest reploids out there, but a direct hit might easily cripple him.

Crush Crawfish
Gorn
Crush Kill Destroy: Basically his current reason to exist. And includes a bad pun.
Glowing Eyelights Of Undeath
The Ever Obscure One™


That is not dead which can eternal lie,
And with strange aeons even death may die.

-The Call of Cthulhu (H.P. Lovecraft)


...

Wait, wait... I wasn't supposed to do that? Wait a second, then. Here, take a look. And here, too.


Giving Cobra Omega tons of action, YEAH! :D

I have no pupils and I must scream.
Okay, I know I said I wouldn't ever post here due to never looking through TVtropes but I did some surfing on that site both today and yesterday and so I'm breaking my promise right...about...wait a minute...waaait a minute...hold one one second...

...NOW!

Hyleg Ourobockle: Snakes Are Sexy
You cannot convince me that MSP doesn't have the hots for Hyleg =P I mean just look at Avi's posts whenever the shark sees him...and admittedly I find it hilarious.
Sssssnake Talk
Ssso fitsss thisss trope I ssshouldn't have to dessscribe why.

Scavenger: Exactly What It Says On The Tin
His name is Scavenger and he eats dead bodies, how much more true to his namesake does he have to be?
High Octane Nightmare Fuel
This guy is just personified walking Nightmare Fuel and it's intentional at that.
(Yeah, I know Scav's gone from the RP, but I still feel he fits these and felt I had to point them out either way.)

Dark Star:
Vader Breath
Hey, he was originally a parody of Darth Vader, as a result he has "breathing problems" and there you go.
A Father To His Men
He may be anti social, sure. But he generally does care about those who he let reside in his castle.
Ominous Pipe Organ
He's not really evil, but he does have a pipe organ that he very prominently plays.

Flame Stag:
The Drifter
Sort of downplayed now that he's staying over at Dark Star's, but eventually I plan to have him get back on his feet and just drift around like he always does.
The Quiet One
Pretty quiet, but when he opens his mouth, he's pretty stubborn.
Informed Loner
In the non-canon threads at least.
I Work Alone
Again, sort of downplayed now, but as I said before he'll be back to this eventually.
Nice Hat

Edward Gavino:
Corrupt Corporate Executive
Kind of, though he doesn't run the company. Other than that, it describes him perfectly.
Teleport Spam
His main ability (and only one aside from time-based powers)

Buckfire:
Dumb Muscle
If I need to explain why, then you're dumber than Buckfire. I know it's insulting, but it's the truth.

Shadow:
Draco in Leather Pants
Admittedly, I'm still scratching my head as to why people not only like him, but consider him their favourite. I don't mean to complain though, I like seeing my guys liked but...he's a
Jerk Ass

Eta:
Badass Longcoat
White Haired Pretty Boy
Jerk With A Heart of Gold
He hates you, but he's trying to help his insane brother get better, so fuck off already!

Hellbat Schilt:
Good Shepherd
Vampire Vords
Doez eet need explainink?
Badass Preacher
He kicks ass for the law and the Lord!

CRORQ:
The Speechless
Doesn't need to be explained.

Life Virus R:
Zerg Rush
His Scuttles love to do this.

Signas:
Jerk With a Heart of Jerk.
Alia's trivia proves this.
Good is Not Nice
Yeah.

Gate:
Affably Evil
Indy seems to have gone for something like this with the character, I'm gonna try and keep it up.

Hollow:
Sinister Minister
Certainly looks like one.

Solo/Rogue & Laplace:
The Atoner
Solo wants to redeem himself for what he has done back when he worked with Nebula Grey, can extend to Laplace as well since he was originally Evil Energy who developed into a sentient being.
Rescued From The Scrappy Heap
Spark pretty much name dropped this trope what with the development I gave him, and it seems Bri and Shade really like my rendition of him too, which is always good to hear.
White Haired Pretty Boy

Uno/Nebula Grey:
Magnificent Bastard
How he became Nebula Grey, his manipulation of Solo, the very creation of Evil Energy.
Demon Lords and Archdevils
Maybe not be an outright demon, but given his backstory, the way he manipulates people, and Evil Energy itself, he might as well be.
One Winged Angel
Nebula Grey is this to Uno.
Our Demons Are Different
Doesn't have horns, scales, hooves, or any of the iconic demon traits but he is pretty much made up of fire and certainly acts like a devil, though in space rather than hell.


Me:
Loads and loads of characters
Hey, I've been trying to cut back...it's just that I have so many ideas...

That's all for now.

Spark Mandrill
Member Avatar
This face will be lying in bed next to you.
A Father Mother to Her Men: Berkana. While she’ll happily put her men in harm’s way to further her own schemes, she does on some care for their safety.

Anti-Hero: Sparkman, Diveman, Elecman. All three are jerks in their own right. But it’s usually in their self-interest to try and save the day.

Anti-Villain: Berkana. All she wants to do is save her own race. But that won’t stop her from playing god or murdering or experimenting innocents.

Arms Dealer: Swindle. Duh!

Author Appeal: I’m not going to lie, part of the reason why I play up Berkana’s cattiness is that I enjoy the hell out of it.

Axe Crazy: Deathtanz Mantisk, Mantisk! Siarnaq qualified for this on the original trope, so why not here?

Band of Brothers: This seems to be share amongst the Einherjar, even those on opposite sides.

Berserk Button: For Berkana, its name is Gareth.

BFG: Swindle and Grenademan, yo.

Big Badass Bird Of Prey: They don't get more badass than undead, necromantic metalhead vultures. Ramjet doesn't come close since he doesn't loosely resemble a bird. Nope.

Cannot tell a Lie: Definitely not Ramjet. He didn’t earn this trope on the original page.

Catch Phrase: “Hi, I’m Diveman! I’m a cold-blooded murderer! Who are you?”

Cloud Cuckoolander: Steel Massimo, Siaranq and Morph Moth. Massimo constantly lives in a DnD fantasy world, Siarnaq thinks he’s a robot, and Morph Moth’s always sees things from a whimsical perspective.

Cluster F Bomb: That’s what Diveman and Sparkman are here for.

Cold Sniper: Plantman, mostly because he’s an adaptation of The End

Corrupt CEO: Serpent. Need I explain?

Crazy Awesome: Deathtanz Mantisk.

Dark Action Girl: Kennaz and Thurisaz, anyone?

Deserted Island: Laguz Island.

Draco in Leather Pants: Deathtanz Mantisk. He’s an insane psychotic mass murderer…and yet someone thought it’d be a good idea to trust him with the public safety of Neo Arcadia.

Drop the Hammer: Thurisaz has this one covered.

Dumb Muscle: Spark Mandrill. They don’t get dumber than him.

Everything is Better with Monkies: Just me in general.

Evil is Sexy: Berkana, plus Kennaz and Thurisaz. It wouldn’t be shocking to hear that some of Neo Genesis’s recruits are just there to ogle the booty they see on a daily basis.

Evil Laugh: Siarnaq. Giro and Atlas, take note of this.

Evilutionary Biologist: Thy name is Berkana.

Fetish Fuel: Berkana. Who among Neo Genesis hasn’t she flirted with?

Fighting Narcissist: Surely, even you peasants must admit Pegasolta is the most gorgeous, awe-inspiring thing you could hope to see in a battlefield. Condorrock counts too, since he always wants a crowd to be focused on him and his zombies.

Flunky Boss: Condorrock, and his flunkies are L4D infected.

Friend in the Black Market: For the Decepticons, it’s Swindle. For Slur, it’s Irving and Glowman.

Grenade Launcher: Grenademan, literally.

Heroic Sociopath: Diveman, through and through. Mantisk, too.

Henshin Villain: Siarnaq, since his powers only come on when he megamerges.

Honest John: As the original trope described this: “Swindle doesn’t bother with a fake name, he’s just that honest”

High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Siarnaq’s face is my rotating avatar. Also, an uber-crazed mantis that can almost make itself invisible and cut you to pieces when you least expect it oughta qualify.

Hot Scientist: Berkana. The end.

Hyperspace Arsenal: Swindle, literally. He’s got a storage dimension filled to the brim with weapons he’s collected throughout the universe. Also, where the hell does Teiwaz keep all his guns?

Insane=Violent: Deathtanz Mantisk has a tee-shirt with this written on it. In blood, of course.

Instrument of Murder: Condorrock’s axe is...well, an axe.

It's All About Me: Pegasolta is the poster boy for this. But to his defense, it really is.

Jerkass: Diveman, Sparkman and Elecman, ahoy! Also, Kennaz and Thurisaz.

Jerk with Heart of Gold: Diveman and Elecman will curb stomp you and bang your girlfriend and laugh about it. But they care about the well-being of their families, and will put themselves in harm's way to make sure they're okay. Sparkman is not so likely to do this.

Joke Character: Not Ramjet. I was totally dead serious when I made him!

Knight Templar: …Well, you haven’t met him yet. But you’ll know him when you see him. Metabad knows who it is.

Large Ham: I really can't play up Pegasolta's narcissisism or Mantisk's insanity any more than I already have. But that's not going to stop me from trying.

Lightning Bruiser: Spark Mandrill. He’s an ex-football player, so he’s got both speed and strength covered. And he attacks with lightning, so it adds a literal dimension to it.

Mad Scientist: Berkana. Let’s face it, she’s trying to play god. There’s nothing sane about that, no matter how much she tries to dress it up.

Meaningful Name: Berkana is the name of a rune symbolizing rebirth or new beginning. And Berkana’s trying to usher in a new generation of reploids that’ll save her race. In fact, all her progenys’ names are all descriptive of the runes they’re named after.

Music Assassin: Condorrock. He kills you with zombies he animates with a guitar!

Names to Run Away from Really Fast: Deathtanz Mantisk, Swindle and Serpent. The latter two are worse offenders if you ask me, since it’s hard to imagine who’d trust guys named ‘Serpent’ or ‘Swindle. Especially when they run businesses named ‘Slither’ and ‘Swindleco’.

Ninja: Siarnaq, of course.

Old Soldier: Grenademan. Blame Reg.

Person of Mass Destruction: Again, you’ll know him when you see him.

Playing with Fire: Kennaz. Her blood’s napalm for crying out loud!

Potty Failure: Siarnaq. Somebody needs to 'input a command' in order for him to go to the bathroom.

Power of Rock: Condorrock, though he uses it for evil.

Psycho for Hire: Mantisk also has this a tee-shirt, too.

Quest for Identity: That’s why Morph Moth gets up in the morning.

Ralph Wiggum: Spark Mandrill. You’re hardpressed to find someone dumber than him. Well, maybe Bombman.

Robo Speak: SIARNAQ IS A 99.8972% MATCH FOR THIS TROPE.


Shock and Awe: Between Elecman, Sparkman, Spark Mandrill, Pegasolta and Thurisaz, I live for this!

Sociopathic Soldier: Teiwaz. He’s not as bad as Gareth may be, but not for a lack of trying.

Ted Baxter: Pegasolta Éclair, even though he truly is superior you unwashed peasants.

Villain with Good Publicity: Serpent, just like in the games. Also, Swindle despite being a merchant of death.

Voluntary Shapeshifter: Morph Moth through and through.

Tornado Tonion:
- Adorkable
- Alignment: True Neutral
- The Engineer
- Gentle Giant: Well, he's a big guy... and he's gentle
- The Smart Guy: But only when it comes to being a gadgeteer genius; in terms of pure intellect, I think Snipe has him beat.
Grapple Man:
- Alignment: Neutral Evil
- Badass Normal
- Dumb Muscle: Yeah, he pretty much does what he's told
- Lightning Bruiser: Do NOT underestimate his speed.
Laura Holiday:
- Alignment: Lawful Good

- Southern Belle
- Spoiled Sweet: She tries her best not to let fame and success go to her head.
Funk:
- Alignment: Lawful Evil
- Boisterous Bruiser
- Book Dumb: He's fairly clever and 'street smart', but he's a pretty poor student
- Jerkass
- Large Ham: WHOO YEAH, FUNKY FRESH IN DA HOUSE!
- Shapeshifter Weapon
Francoise Goulet:
- Alignment: Lawful Evil

- Whip It Good
Quick Man:
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Fragile Speedster: Natch.
- Fun Personified: The party NEVER stops when he's around.
- Motor Mouth: Again, natch.
- Suicidal Overconfidence: He charged full force at Scylla during the battle with the Four Fiends. It didn't end well.
Noble Mandrago:
- Alignment: Lawful Good
- Bourgeois Bohemian: I think Shadow has called her a 'hippie' on more than one occasion.
- Cool Old Lady: Considering the earliest are only seven years old, she's not really an 'old' lady per se, she just has the personality of one.
- Healing Factor
- Reluctant Warrior: While she normally abhors violence, she's not above using force when absolutely necessary.
- The Shrink: Type 3
Slash Man:
- Alignment: Chaotic Evil
- Ax Crazy
- Combat Sadomasochist: Actually, he's just a sadomasochist in general.
- Complete Monster: Kills without a second thought.
- Psychopathic Manchild
Sandy:
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Berserk Button: Do NOT make a joke about her weight unless you want to get pounded.
- Brawn Hilda: Well, I originally designed her as this, but I think Cobra sees her as more of a Cute Bruiser/ Hot Amazon
- Dojikko: Yeah, she's a bit of a klutz.
- Genki Girl
- Savvy Guy Energetic Girl: She and Burner Man qualify for this (though it could be more aptly described as 'grumpy guy energetic girl')
Lucha Sable:
- Alignment: Neutral Good
- Berserk Button: See Papa Wolf
- Beware the Nice Ones: He's generally a nice guy, but once you get him angry, it's game over for you.
- Companion Cube: Abuelo (justified in that it actually is possessed by his grandfather)
- Gratuitous Spanish
- Lightning Bruiser: As quick and nimble as a fox, and he can lay out most normal men with one punch
- Papa Wolf: Lay a hand on his family (adoptive or otherwise) and you will be sorry.
