Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Genius Bonus: The weird, creepy language of the cultists is actually a mixture of Latin and Sanskrit words and grammar. Check it out.
Goddamned Bats: Definitely. Also rats, spiders, choking hands, and the Bone Leeches in Blood II. The Choking Hands and Bone Leeches enter Demonic Spiders territory if you don't know how to get them off. It takes nerves of steel to fight them without flinching.
Good Bad Bugs: The first chapter of Blood II has you visit a laundromat twice, as noted in Copy and Paste Environments. With noclip, it's possible to take the exit you're meant to use the second time through and skip at least two levels. The first game has the "flame guy" bug, as noted for Dead Character Walking. Also in the first game, the Merry-Go-Pukey in E1M4 Dark Carnival will spawn gibs if it's attacked, and the Bloated Butcher's cleaver throw can be negated by crouching (the projectile hits, but doesn't cause any damage).
The same cultists when set on fire. They may be annoying normally, but their girly, undignified screaming and character-breaking English shouts of "It burns, it burns!!" more than make up for it.
Caleb's five variations of Evil Laugh when you blow something up, going from quiet chuckles to full-on psychotic cackling.
