History Characters / StreetsOfRogue

* BystanderSyndrome: Invoked with the Killer Robot; [=NPC=]s will always panic and flee from it, even if they're friendly with you.
* ImplacableMan: The Killer Robot that appears as a disaster is NighInvulnerable, carries a Bazooka with infinite ammo, and will hound you aggressively, no matter where you are on the map.

* NecessaryDrawback: Extreme stats, but he has a "Charge" buff that gradually decays over four levels, dropping his stats each level. At level 1, he's about as effective as a Slum Dweller and will take gradual damage. He has to use his Power Sap ability to siphon electricity from objects to refill his charge… [[TimedMission and there are only so many electrical devices on any given level…]]
** He also has a ton of health, but can't heal through any of the normal means; he's dependent on using Power Sap, which will also heal him when he refills his charge.

* FurryLens: The "Ape City" mutator makes every [=NPC=]look like a gorilla but it has no effect on gameplay. Only the characters that were gorillas before will act like gorillas.

* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: Can't use firearms, most people will not tolerate his presence, and he can't even talk to humans without a specific item. The vast majority of objectives as a Gorilla will end up with you smashing things until it's completed (or failed.)

* AnticlimaxBoss: Despite being the final boss of the game, there are many items and a few class abilities which allow you to turn his guards against him or otherwise kill him without even entering the same room. Plus if you completed the big quest you now have access to a class-specific overpowered special ability. And if you put in the work to win the election, he'll just hand over the hat without a fight.

* AchillesHeel: Removing its rocket launcher with an Ammo Stealer forces it to rely on mediocre melee attacks, seriously decreasing its threat level.

* ALighterShadeOfGray: Unlike the Cops, who are rotten to the core and apathetic, Soldiers don't actively antagonize people (except [[AlwaysChaoticEvil Cannibals]]) and only attack the player if they trespass in their bases.

* PoliceBrutality: The Cops have no problems with beating people to death with a nightstick. It goes up to eleven when you play as the Cop and use weapons like the [[StuffBlowingUp Rocket Launcher]] or [[KillItWithFire Flamethrower]].

* MightyGlacier: While he is in the mech, his shooting, strength, and endurance stats become '''5'''. This means he becomes tougher than any other characters that you can play as. However, he also becomes very slow, and it's even slower than characters with 1 speed.

* AnAxeToGrind: They are particularly prone to carrying battleaxes, for some reason.

* DamageSpongeBoss: At 1000 HP, it's far and away the most durable enemy in the game.

* NiceHat: Sports a sweet top hat. Getting it from them, one way or another, is key to beating the game.

* SharpDressedMan: Wears a fancy suit and tie in addition to their NiceHat, making them stand out among the game's characters.

* HoaxHogan: His vistory speech is a nod to Wrestling/HulkHogan, telling the crowd to stay out of trouble and eat their broccoli. He then does Hulk's iconic "I can't hear you!" before admitting he really can't hear due wrestling injuries.

* NotTheIntendedUse: Because of how Electability works, it's actually ''very'' practical to win the game as Zombie via election, rather than KlingonPromotion; everyone votes, and any zombies still standing at the end of a level will vote for you, guaranteed. Simply flood every normal level with Zombies, but start an election on the final map, and watch as the zombie hordes you've created peacefully vote you into office. (Might be impossible without the Friendly Zombies mutator, however.)
