This Troper is absolutely ''attached'' to Duo of the ''MegaMan'' games, sure, his first official appearance was ''MegaMan 8'', which sucked, but that doesn't mean I haven't grown attached to the character.
#37993
When I saw KillBill for the first time, I just became attached to Elle. I don't know what it is, maybe it's her eyepatch, but she really left an impression.
#37994
My favorite dwarf in SnowWhite was always Grumpy. Dunno why.
#37995
Theo Kypri's pilot character in Tomorrow Never Dies. Yeah, the same guy who shows up for two minutes, tries to kill our hero, and has no lines of dialogue. And the half-second shot of him shaking in his cockpit as he fires his machine guns? Gets me every time, for some reason.
#37996
After seeing a live production of ''{{Rent}}'' I have inexplicably become attached to the Squeegee Man.
#37997
This troper's entire family's favorite character in the movie "Scott Pilgrim vs. The World" was, without a doubt, Wallace Wells.
#37998
After playing YggdraUnion, this Troper became extremely attached to Inzaghi. His GoldfishPoopGang and ButtMonkey status soon turned him into TheWoobie for me. My eyes even watered up after Inzaghi's death, especially since he was betrayed and killed by someone who was supposed to be his ally.
#37999
This troper says Lulu, Rydia, and Rise. They left a good impression, alright!
#38000
This tropette sees RickMoranis as this. In a nutshell, he kinda is this in RealLife, not just by comparing him with the more profilic comedians like BillMurray and SteveMartin, both of them happening to be his friends, but for the fact that he is semi-retired. And I should state for a fact that Rick has a special place in my heart, kind of like another dad.
#38001
This Troper LOVES Deidara. She can't help it.
#38002
Oddly, this gaming Troper tends to see most characters that others see as {{Ensemble Darkhorse}}s as TheScrappy. Shi-Long Lang? Can't stand him. Oki? Don't like him. And so on.
#38003
This troper and his brother love Pang Tong from the Dynasty Warriors games so much that we turn him into a mix of China conqueror and Drug addict which makes him {{Crazy Awesome}}
#38004
He also wanted to add Dick Gumshoe and Jean Armstrong the former is because of his ButtMonkey status (seriously, who doesn't want to hug him) and the latter because he certainly the most funny character in PhoenixWright I've got the pleasure to see.
#38005
This is probably the wrong page, but at our school there' an EnsembleDarkhorse residing in a teacher. Our school is a Catholic School, very strict on everything but behaviour. The students are mostly all bad-mannered and everything, and treat the school like they own the place. In this shining mess, there are great teachers, there are AWESOME teachers, and then there's this troper's music and Home Group teacher, Mrs. Axman. She is probably the coolest teacher in the entire school, as for Music class she brings her own music for us to analyse for the Aural practice tasks, she throws board dusters at the guys who speak in class, she isn't afraid to tell people who are talking to shut it, swears constantly at the worse students, and best of all, she is actually helpful in class and got our class through the exam period a few months ago. It is somewhat helped that our previous teacher was considerably more condescending and less helpful, but it does not detract from her standing as one of the best teachers to come to our school for about 10 years.
#38006
Although Lola Bunny is TheScrappy to many, she was (and still is) an Ensemble Darkhorse to this tropette. Because of this, she is afraid that she will get attacked by {{Fan Hater}}s who agree with what the NostalgiaCritic had to say about her and might accuse her of being a furry or liking a MarySue what was shoehorned into the LooneyTunes gang during the last few years of TheRenaissanceAgeOfAnimation.
#38007
{{@/Tidal_Wave_17}}: Honestly, one of the only reasons I watch {{Glee}} is just to hear what genius lines Brittany says next. Oh, and for the music.
#38008
This Troper once had to draw a comic for Science, explaining the Rock Cycle, to present to the class. It starred some random rock with a dry sense of humor as they (I never could decide a gender) basically became the world's Chew Toy and went through the rock cycle at an exponential rate. I was surprised to find that no one cared about the rock, but everyone loved the random, awkwardly drawn fish that swam in the backround of the sea. Don't know why.
#38009
This troper has a habit of becoming attached to EnsembleDarkhorse[=s=] in various media - she loves Nando, Hoban, and Cinna, among others.
#38010
This Troper is particularly attached to a certain character added in the third season of his own comic series, Cody. So much that I've decided to give him his own {{spinoff}}. Needless to say, if these comics were public he'd be in grave danger of becoming {{The Wesley}}.
#38011
This Troper really likes Rachel and Nico.
#38012
Also, Sydney Poindexter and Kwan.
#38013
Out of this troper's many characters, there are two (relatively minor) ones that are physically identical. One is a LawfulNeutral, (though leaning towards LawfulEvil) semi AscendedDemon and near-literal BattleButler with shades of WickedCultured and ServileSnarker mixed in. He's (purposefully) something of a FetishFuelStationAttendant, according to a friend. The other is a yandere-ish HumanoidAbomination with the intelligence and vocabulary of a somewhat dull toddler. Left to his own devices, he would go on an eternal killing spree, murdering every person he encountered until someone managed to incapacitate him (hard to do, since he's immortal). Aside from never bathing in his life and being covered in injuries (for starters: gouged out eyes, resulting in oozing, festering wounds over the remains of his eye sockets, his throat has been slashed multiple times, he's been stabbed and shot in the chest to the point that you could see inside his chest cavity if he removed his shirt, etc...) He's basically Voldo meets Smiledog meets a witch, so I'd always assumed that he was far too freaky for anyone aside from me to like, which was the point. For whatever reason, the vast majority of people that have seen my drawings have adored the second one, even asking me to draw him for them and claiming to find him sexy- for very strange reasons. The same people find the first character creepy and "scary-looking". The hurt/comfort part almost makes this make sense. But... yeah, no. It doesn't. I'm so confused.
#38014
Frighteningly, If you combined the two described you'd have something very similiar to this troper's personality, only I have a hideously collosal vocabulary I tend to beat people to death with. Not really sure why I posted this, it just scared me a bit and thought it should be known....bye.
#38015
I'm not sure if I want to be delighted to find a real-world counterpart to two of my favorite characters, or very, very afraid... Needless to say, I'm intrigued.
#38016
This troper's best friend has a talent for creating good, rounded-out characters. The problem is we get really, really attached to them in our roleplays. A recent example: a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} girl initially created to be a convenient {{Love Interest}} to our apathetic side character. The intention was to have some nice {{Character Development}} for her already-existing character, and maybe a small {{Relationship Upgrade}}. We ended up roleplaying the entirety of their interactions before the protagonists got there. It was awesome.
#38017
This troper runs a DarkHeresy game for all of my friends, and created a huge cast of [=NPCs=] that act as advisors and informants to the players. During the last game, they became attached to a Blood Ravens Apothecary by the name of Harkon. Unlike the rest of his chapter, he was completely AxCrazy. The players by far found him the most entertaining out of all of the [=NPCs=], even counting the BunnyEarsLawyer Inquisitor and villain. They continuously request Harkon to return in every game but I only use him ocaisionally to prevent overuse.
#38018
I guess you were inspired by TSOALR. Guess Kren and Frep drove him mad...again.
#38019
This Troper and his brother turned ''GoldenEye 007'''s Mishkin into a MemeticBadass and created a strange worshipping chant for him. It went something like "Weeee praaayy tooooo Meeeeesshhkiiin! Mmmuuuuuuuueeeeesshhkiiin!" It was accompanied by bouncing up and down in our seats, putting a finger to the sides of our noses and moving it up and down really really fast. Ten years later, I have ''no idea'' how or why it happened, but Mishkin was the epitome of {{Badass}}ery for a good few months for us.
#38020
This troper would like to argue that Almaz Von Almandine Adamant is the true star of {{Disgaea3}}
#38021
For some reason, I really liked Juji Minami from NabariNoOu, even before the ''one'' episode where she got a decent amount of screen time. I think it might be because she has awesome hair while being a little girl.
#38022
this trooper love's Tommy from Doctor who despite he was only in one episode well she would doesn't what him in anther episode she does wish people would write fanfic for him.
#38023
This Troper, is probably the only male non furry who adores Minotaurs, and Mime off HappyTreeFriends.
#38024
This troper, despite being incredibly nerdy and awkward was pretty much the EnsembleDarkhorse of his high school class. I was really popular and I was the furry who never went to any parties or proms and pretty much geeked out over old cartoons at my computer. Also, I'm a HUGE fan of Shifty Dingo from BlinkyBill and Salty from AlphaAndOmega.
#38025
Like I said on the FandomHeresy page, C-ko is my favorite character in Project A-ko. She may be the TheScrappy to many, but she is loved by me.
#38026
Kyle, a friend of mine's, is one of these at my school. Although it may have something to do with his snarkiness, which does serve as a CrowningMomentOfFunny sometimes. He is so popular, that he is the only one I actually refer to by name whenever I post any of my own personal TroperTales revolving around my friends and family.
#38027
Waluigi is this Troper's favorite character in the Mario universe(even though he only has appeared in games I don't like and Mario Kart so far). I think I speak for many fans when I say he should have his own game, or at least a minor role in a non-party-sports-kart-game.
#38028
Who's this troper's favourite character in the Pokémon anime? As my nickname should suggest, Timmy Grimm/The Phantom, May's rival for the Verdanturf Town Contest. Only two episodes, but he haves: CoolMask, NiceHat, WhiteGloves, BadassCape, JasonGriffith as his American voice and YumikoKobayashi in the Japanese dub. Also Dusclops is an awesome Pokémon.
#38029
Is it possible to have an ensemble darkhorse story arc? For me the Mandalore episodes of StarWarsTheCloneWars are the most interesting ones, since it is IMO a great play of black and grey or black and black morality as the Death Watch hate pacifism to the point of ultimate ridiculousness and duchess Satine seems to be the worst choice for an authority figure since those wacky comedies with children in charge of nations. I hope this gets a nice resolution at the very end of the show.
#38030
LooneyLuver: Here are some of my favorite characters (who aren't, obviously, primary main characters):
#38031
LUNA LOVEGOOD: Starting in OrderofthePhoenix. She's just awesome. I think she's also something of a AudienceAvatar. In middle and High school, reading became TheScrappy activity, and I was a bit of an outcast (it also didn't help that, as a Gay, living in the Midwest, I had to be on the dl, but I'm so campy I was hated by most of the my underperforming peers). The Luna, ThePollyanna of the series came and took away all the pain. -I loved his Comedy Central Presents, and "Completely Serious". So when DanielTosh got his own show, I was very happy. Haven't missed an episode/ -Kitty from That70'sShow. Her laugh is what endeared her to me (and is a MemeticMutation around my house). Then she hit menopause and just got even better. -Vivi of FFIX: he's got better HP and durability (surprisingly) than Eiko and Garnet, and he learns most of his spells quickly. Plus, his own part of the Story is soooo freakin' sad it's not surprising he's such a Woobie. -Asuma of Naruto fame: But really that's for another reason altogether.
#38032
Am I the ONLY one who thinks that Jack Chick's TheGrimReaper is bloody ADORABLE? "Hi there! /REAPS".
#38033
I'm just gonna say that I used to never really care much about Sableye. Then, just last week, I decided to do a run through of Pokemon Sapphire using mostly Pokemon I never really thought much about before. I caught a Sableye in Dewford cave and named her Alma. With her Dark/Ghost typing, she had no real weakness, and was a helpful asset to my team. Being female and having Shadow Ball, she SWEPT Elite 4 Phoebe's team, and finished of Drake's annoying Salamence. I was so attached to her at this point, I let her loose on Steven. She was defeated, but not without her taking down his Claydol, Cradily, and even his Metagross. When his Armaldo defeated her, I was pissed, and had my Swampert destroy his remaining team members. I imported her to Platinum to help against the Battle Frontier, and will soon be put on Black. Needless to say, Alma turned Sableye into one of my absolute favorites in the Pokemon series.

In my fanfiction, I have two original characters-- a LoveInterest for the main character, and a little sister named Celeste. The readers simply ''love'' Celeste, probably due to quotes like this: #QUOTE# “Soon, they’re gonna get married, and Zoë’s dress will be made of grass and chocolate and she’ll wear daisies and opals in her hair and instead of a cake, they’ll have a banana cream pie!”
#38051
This Troper has an awkward habit of seeing characters who people think are TheScrappy as Ensemble Darkhorses and characters who people think are the EnsembleDarkhorse as Scrappys, the only exception being Luigi.
#38052
In this troper's first RP, a {{Dragoncave}} RP which went on for several years, she brought in a character from the {{Dragonadopters}} 'verse, a Fire Wyvern named Hellcat. His exploits included wheeling by on a unicycle during moments of annoying soap-opera drama, bursting in on other characters in the middle of a private moment to announce anything from hordes of monsters attacking the castle to food burning in the oven, constantly being on the run from an enraged flock of geese, being thrown through windows into the area where other characters are interacting and shrugging off questions as to how it happened, popping up in random places he should have been logically unable to reach/fit into (a la Pinkie Pie), convincing a suicidal character to live ''when her RPer was determined to kill her off,'' outsmarting a resident MagnificentBastard by twisting his ExactWords into a binding oath to return to his can for all eternity, fighting until he was nearly dead to protect the nursery (which had been forgotten about by the other characters) in the middle of a wolf invasion, taking on an insanely powerful Nightmare by himself and winning, and using his soul to block the tunnel into a DarkWorld with endless armies of shadow creatures, saving not just the castle inhabitants but just about everyone on the continent in the process. Oh, and he had a silly British accent. Lurkers and other RPers alike agree that all this was done without powerplaying or devolving into a GaryStu; this troper has gotten fanart and even fanfiction from random people on the forums for Hellcat, and received (joking) death threats from other RPers if she ever releases the adoptable on which he was based. Her characters actually have a tendency to do this on mild levels, but Hellcat was the most extreme and notable example.
