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.

  • Nolan North, the voice of Nathan Drake and Desmond Miles, plays The Penguin in Batman: Arkham City.
  • Rob Paulsen as Gray Fox in the remake Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes. Basically, the fact that Rob Paulsen played a very serious character (a character who is implied to be driven insane from experimentation as well as at times remorseful of his past in war, and in one source was implied to have PTSD) and do so in-character is a very sharp turn against some of his more lighthearted and comical roles.
  • Daran Norris is known for playing goofy characters such as Cosmo and Timmy's Father. He also plays Rodyle from Tales Of Symphonia, a rather frightening mad scientist.
  • Adam Baldwin departs from his earlier psychotic roles to voice the respectable and intelligent (though he insists otherwise) Quarian marine Kal'Reegar in Mass Effect 2.
  • Kate Mulgrew as Flemeth. Seriously. Kate Mulgrew as Flemeth.
  • Maurice LaMarche as Calendar Man in Batman: Arkham City a Hannibal Lector esq sadistic murderer who commits his sprees on holidays. Normally, he plays comedic roles. (Incidentally, Calendar Man isn't normally a sadistic killer.)
    • He also plays Mr. Freeze in the same game, a character who is definitely not a comedic role.
  • Spike Spencer plays Arakune in Blaz Blue. He normally plays small and cowardly boys. Instead, here he plays a psychotic blob monster with a much deeper voice than what he's used to.
  • Charlie Adler plays Super-Skrull in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. While he's played Super-Skrull in some of the villain's animated appearances, he's way better known for playing small Funny Animal characters than intergalactic warlords.
  • Alyson Court is known for portraying characters in TV shows designed for children. However, she portrays a character in a video game not designed for children, Claire Redfield of Resident Evil fame. She doesn’t reprise her role in the remake, but that’s beside the point.
  • Tom Kenny portrays Sgt. Byrd in Spyro Year of the Dragon. He’s a notably serious character compared to what he usually portrays, as he happens to be a soldier. A well-trained one.
  • Kevin Michael Richardson portrays Chairman Drek in Ratchet and Clank, even though he usually portrays characters that are large or at least tall. Of course, Clank is one of the eponymous heroes and he also has a voice deeper than his appearance would suggest.
