The Shades crash through door
Either Dekopin repairs the door, or the portal closes
The Shades are kicked out of the stable bubble into the Plane of Incarnum proper, and dissolve there, gone for good.
Threeshades said he was making a comic over a week ago, but we've heard nothing else from her. And as I've heard nothing from Salmon, who's up for deciding what his talisman does?
Meaningful Name: Mostly played for laughs, but Threeshades and some others play the trope straight on occassion
Mary Sue/Marty Stu: ABr has long list of ridiculously skilled characters who apply well to these tropes
Implacable Man: Abr has long list of implacable men and women, but to the top tier rise Randomizer and Threeshades
Joke Item:Some characters have used truly laughable items as weapons in long and glorious history of ABR. These include eggs, soda, sticks, stones, heads and other body parts... the list goes on
Losing Your Head: Several characters have survived decapitation with only mild annoyance, and ABR boasts entire race with ability for such

Joke item indeed. I believe I hit someone with a cat. Does that not deserve mention? Especially since the cat was a PC? Hehehe...

That's because you're a newb your character hasn't been here for too long. Because of that, your character is undeveloped. I for one know NOTHING about your character except he can intimidate robots and he wears red.

Point taken. And it wasnt a robot, it was guy in a robot suit.
Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XX: Because WAAAAGH isnt good enough.
Yeah, I don't have any tropes either, and I've been around longer than you. I plan on fixing this.
Also, here's some more tropes: Dead Little Sister: Many characters in Avatar Battle Royale have lost someone dear to them, generally in insignificant backstory. Darker and Edgier: Future Imperfect, the sequel to Fat Fish Fury, is a much more cynical story than its predecessor. Grumpy Bear: Many people, such as Nilmerg Eht and The Q, tend to be moody, cynical, and irritable, and almost everybody in Future Imperfect is. Ineffectual Loner: Pretty much everyone in Future Imperfect is a loner to some degree. Most notably Lyinginbedmon. Fallen Hero: Nilmerg Eht is probably the most notable Fallen Hero. Dark and Troubled Past: Pretty much anybody from the many from Arcania. Antihero: In Future Imperfect, almost everybody is an Antihero to some extent. Hero with bad Publicity: Ins has turned everyone against the 'heroes'. Villain with Good Publicity: Ins is believed to be the 'savior' of Avbaroy. The Atoner: Threeshades and Nilmerg Eht both fill this role well.

New tropes again
BFS:: Used by many, many characters. To mind rise Jason Doomblade, Almighty Salmon (Well, he has used a knife bigger than himself), Mecha-Nightwing and Eita
Bottomless Magazines:Named characters never run out of ammo unless it is determined by plot, unless they are using something that absolutely needs a reload after each use.
BFG:These have made numerous appereances, amongst the worst offenders being chainguns, missile launchers and lazers

If you lied well enough, they'd believe you had permission from Lying to set up the party, but they'll still step in if it gets too rowdy or bad things start happening.

Dang. And here I was going to use the party as an excuse to bring up Q's cocaine problem.
Hypothetically, what would they do IF it did got too rowdy?
Re: Avatar Battle Royale Discussion Thread XX: Because WAAAAGH isnt good enough.
Well if it gets rowdy, I remind you there's upwards of 200 Seen Servants, all of whom have the capacity to at least pick up a crossbow, and four of which are significantly powerful to keep the Citadel and all it's equipment safe and running in a desert for months at a time.
Ie. They'll ever detain you or throw you out. Killing isn't usually something they do without Lying's order.

The Journey Home is pretty much a free-for all with not too much planning in advance that allows pretty much anything. (different dimensions mean there are no restrictions on charecters or settings ) That means there is a good chance your ideas will be implemented. I say go for it!

It's actually parallel universes, not dimensions. If you really meant dimensions that would mean we could have 4 dimensional characters.
