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.

Basic Trope: A character who invokes sympathy in the audience.

  • Straight: Alice is viewed as sympathetic while getting abused by her father.
  • Exaggerated: Alice is popular to the point where the Author gives her a happy ending, and grows up to be a sweet, loving person.
  • Justified: Alice is a Moe character who is nice.
  • Inverted: The Chew Toy - Alice is loved FOR her misery.
  • Deconstructed: Alice is aware that people are only drawn to her because of her suffering, causing her to become depressed.
  • Reconstructed: Then Alice realizes that they're drawn to her because, after all, nobody should be left to suffer, and helping others is the right thing to do. She accepts their help and overtime becomes a stronger person who can stand on her own two feet.
