Story Writers of Offtopic, what are your favorite and/or least favorite character tropes and give an example of that trope in any Offtopic story?

A trope that I think is overused is most/all characters have some sort of dark and tragic backstory. For me, it's fine if it only a few characters, but it gets annoying when it's majority of the characters. I like the trope where every character has one or a few major flaws. Really adds some realism to the character. Plot armor. I'll admit, I use this for myself and Aino in SoS, but you know; it can be used to further the story, and not to show off how overpowered the main character(s) is. The "Well, they got a point" villain. My favorite type of villains are the ones that became evil because of how their backstory was like and how they were treated rather than villains that became evil just because. Soooo, any more tropes? [spoiler][b]Erased....[/b][/spoiler]

  • Least favorite: Supah dupah strong guyz! “We have to stop him; he’s a threat to the entire multiverse!” “This guy eats planets for breakfast!” “He rules his own dimension!” Meanwhile I’m here rolling my eyes, because they’re just as shallow as they are strong, and I don’t care about them in the slightest. Sure, you [i]can[/i] have a character that’s both strong, and well fleshed out, but 90% of the time it seems like them being super strong is their only personality trait, and every encounter with them comes down to “WATCH ME SHOOT THAT SPACESHIP OUTTA DA SKY CUZ I’M SUPAH STROOOONG!”. Favorite: This one’s a bit harder, because there are so many I like. I really like “nice guy” villains. Like, the kind if you met them on the street and hat a chat with them you’d be like “This guy’s super nice!”. For some reason they also always seem to be sadistic, but that’s besides the point! Examples: Kimbly (FMA), Hazama (BlazBlue) [spoiler]On a side note, I am 90% sure either Hazama was based on Kimbly or vice versa..[/spoiler] I’ll admit, I like the edgy anti-hero as long as they aren’t TOO edgy. It’s really easy to go over the top and ruin them here, but get it right and they’re always one ofmy favorites. Example: Yayaka (Flip Flappers) The aristocratic and/or overconfident jerk. I shouldn’t even need to explain this one, because anyone with half a brain could figure it out. Tsch. *flips hair* Examples: Rachel Alucard (BlazBlue), Drew (Pokémon) And probably more I can’t think of right now.
