Tropedia

  • 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.

Robots are a girl's best friend.

Life is good for Priscilla. She is young and beautiful, has inherited a fortune from her father, and has just gotten married to a talented and handsome Scientist. Unfortunately, being a successful Scientist requires a lot of work. As he finds out during their honeymoon, Priscilla has quite an appetite for bed games, and he worries about how he will handle the situation when duty calls. In the spirit of a true engineer, he makes the only logical decision: he builds her a robot. The comic follows the turn of events as Priscilla gets to know the ultimate sex toy of the 19th century.

Chester 5000 XYV is a story driven erotic comic set in the Victorian era. It contrasts with the common standard in that it doesn't use those unnecessary, superfluous things they call words. The story is told solely by the ink-washed images (with the exception of some sound effects), and the names of the characters are unknown (with the exception of Chester). It's also explicitly sexual, not that there's anything different in that, while still maintaining a high degree of romance and characterization.

The comic is drawn by Jess Fink. Between 30 August 2008 and 16 November 2008 it updated every day, but then it took a Series Hiatus until 9 March 2009. Subsequently, it updated Tuesdays and Thursdays until April, 2010, where it went on another hiatus. This lasted until the 1 March 2011, when Fink began publishing pages once more.

The entire site's borderline NSFW, so unfortunately, it can't be directly linked.


This series provides examples of:

  • Art Evolution: Comparing recent to old comics, the lines grow smoother, the anatomy improves and there are more details.
  • Heroic Mime: Kind of. It's clear that the characters are talking among themselves, but the readers can't see it.
  • Ridiculously-Human Robots: Chester can feel pain, love and even appreciate hints and nuances. His physique is also humane, to the point that when he climaxes, the lady risks oil stains.
  • Robosexual
  • Romancing the Widow: Lets just say she isn't lonely.
  • Word of God: The names of the characters are never mentioned in the comic, but are disclosed in the Character Guide section.
