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.
Male Gaze: Teegra, full stop. If you do a shot every time you see ridiculous amounts of cleavage or she rams her butt into the camera, you'll be dead five minutes later. Mitigated in that she's more than capable of handling herself, at least.
Unfortunate Implications: So, wait, why, precisely, are the mooks from the land of the ice and snow swarthy ape-men again?
Too Cool to Live: Necron, not only can outfight the hero of the story with sword play, but use telekinetic magic to control people AND a huge iceberg as well. He only lost because the last guy he fought, Darkwolf was basically a god incarnate.
Ear Worm: Much of the background music. (In the Amiga version, it's sample-based; unfortunately, the sound effects and music contend for the audio channels, with sound effects taking priority, so it's possible for the music to be temporarily silenced if enough sound effects go off at once. The PC port has an OPL2 arrangement of the music, which is usually not as good, but doesn't get interrupted by the PCM sound effects. The Amiga CD32 version has a redbook-audio soundtrack which is partly arranged versions of some of the songs and partly completely different songs, and also has the original music available by setting a configuration option.)
