Meme: Tropes

Oh yes, you guys can just hate my face for this one but it's well overdue.

A trope, for our purposes, is a recognizable concept or pattern of behavior used in fiction. Tropes are not necessarily cliches. Cliches, by definition, are trite; tropes are simply an expectation, and can be used in fresh and unique ways. For example, "Rags to Riches" is a popular trope that everyone recognizes -- Sometimes it's done well, sometimes not.

Your challenge, should you accept it, is to trawl the TV Tropes Wiki and find five tropes that fit your character. Comment here listing the tropes and explain why you chose them. Others familiar with your character can then offer additional tropes they feel are appropriate.


So, trope it up, guys! Feel free to list more than five tropes but make sure to explain why so we all know the reasons. Feel free to suggest other tropes for other characters. Have fun! GET LOST IN THE TROPES WIKI!
