So, which tropes from TV Tropes apply to your character?

Nachshon
Berserk Button: Do not suggest that he isn't a loyal soldier of the Republic, or that he isn't Minmatar (in a non-ethnic sense).
* Also, do not insult his co-workers.
Chaotic Good
Going Native: Went from being a Caldari expat to a diehard Republic supporter. Partially subverted in that he retains some Caldari cultural trappings, as well as being pure Caldari in his fighting style.
Macross Missile Massacre: His preferred method of attack.
Trademark Favorite Food: Sake.
Wakizashis Are Just Better: Carries a wakizashi as part of his dress uniform.

Caldari by birth, Minmatar by choice. Give me the word, and I'll bring down the sky.

I like to think of my eve character as a Big Damn Hero because I fly a scimi...

Combat Medic would also apply.

I like this thread.

Psychopathic Man Child + Blood Knight - These two go hand-in-hand to, essentially, describe Terazul in a nutshell. She loves combat, especially hand-to-hand combat, and she'll act friendly in an odd "cutesy" way that clashes with her appearance in a very big way.

Sociopathic Hero - Self-explanatory.

Petite Pride - Yeah, she's pretty flat, and that's the way she likes it.

Anything That Moves - As this includes baseliners, she is particularly qualified for this.

And I will stop there, lest this evil site CONSUME MY LIFE.

I was the original reason for Eve Online having the "Magnificent Bastard" and "Psycho for Hire" tropes. Alas, as other magnificent psychos followed in my burning footsteps, I lost unique claim to it.
