History Characters / Subverse

* VillainHasAPoint: [[spoiler:After Blythe uses her superweapon to seal off the Imperium's capital world from the rest of the galaxy, one of the planets which Erark also plans to use the superweapon on is the kloi homeworld. While this is primarily because Erark sees them as potential rivals who could threaten his plans to rule the galaxy now that the Imperium has been left mostly leaderless, he's not exactly wrong to want the kloi sealed off from the rest of the galaxy seeing as how they are one of the few races capable of threatening the Imperium and Ela herself outright admitted that the kloi are genocidal space racists who wanted to wipe out any race which they considered ugly (more than ''70%'' of all species in the galaxy if Ela is to be believed).]]

* ImmuneToMindControl: Lanncunians are the only one known species to be immune to the senu's mind control powers. [[spoiler:Which is why only his compatriots are ever chosen as Executors of the Veil.]]

* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:It's all but outright stated that Erark was the one behind the creation of the Fuccbots, having originally commissioned the disgruntled CEO of APEX Industries, the robotics company that created DEMI before getting shut down by Kasidora's BanOnAI, to create an army of robots as part of an earlier scheme to overthrow the Imperium. When the Fuccbots went feral and TurnedAgainstTheirMasters, he deemed the project a failure and [[BadBoss abandoned the Fuccbots' creator to die]], ignoring his desperate pleas for rescue.]]

* EvilGloating: [[spoiler:Indulges in this while betraying Blythe after she takes out Kasidora and the Imperium Senate, rubbing it in Blythe's face how easily he manipulated her and and gloating about his entire scheme to become Emperor of the Imperium before siccing [[TheDogBitesBack HARR-E]] and [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Blythe's own brainwashed Requital soldiers]] on her.]]

When the Fuccbots went feral and TurnedAgainstTheirMasters, he deemed the project a failure and [[BadBoss abandoned the Fuccbots' creator to die]], ignoring his desperate pleas for rescue.]]

* BigBad: [[spoiler:Becomes this as of the July 2023 update. With Kasidora and the Imperium Senate cut off from the rest of the galaxy and General Blythe pulling a HeelFaceTurn, Erark becomes the sole main antagonist of the game as he attempts to turn Celestina into his PuppetQueen and eliminate the ''Mary Celeste'' crew after [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness they are no longer of use to him]].]]

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:It eventually turns out that Erark is a power-hungry [[TheStarscream Starscream]] who was just using the ''Mary Celeste'' crew and the Requital to overthrow Kasidora so that he could become Emperor and manipulate Celestina into becoming his PuppetQueen. Once he decides that the Captain and General Blythe [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness have outlived their usefulness to his plans]], he doesn't hesitate to try having both of them killed.]]

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:It eventually turns out that Erark is a power-hungry [[TheStarscream Starscream]] who was just using the ''Mary Celeste'' crew and the Requital to overthrow Kasidora so that he could replace her as [[TheManBehindTheMan the true power behind the throne]] and manipulate Celestina into becoming his PuppetQueen. Once he decides that the Captain and General Blythe [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness have outlived their usefulness to his plans]], he doesn't hesitate to try having both of them killed.]]

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:It eventually turns out that Erark is a power-hungry [[TheStarscream Starscream]] who was just using the Captain and the Requital to overthrow Kasidora so that he could replace her as [[TheManBehindTheMan the true power behind the throne]] and manipulate Celestina into becoming his PuppetQueen. Once he decides that the Captain and later General Blythe [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness have outlived their usefulness to his plans]], he doesn't hesitate to try having both of them killed.]]

* EvilAllAlong: [[spoiler:It eventually turns out that Erark is a power-hungry [[TheStarscream Starscream]] who was just using the Captain and the Requital to overthrow Kasidora so that he could replace her as [[TheManBehindTheMan the true power behind the throne]] and manipulate Celestina into becoming his PuppetQueen. Once he decides that both General Blythe and the Captain [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness have outlived their usefulness to his plans]], he doesn't hesitate to try having both of them killed.]]

Leader of the Requital, a faction of the Solar fleet that went rogue after the Battle of Nü Vegas and refused to submit to the Imperium.

* BoobsOfSteel: Blythe has the biggest rack out of all the female cast members and is pound-for-pound one of the game's most [[OneManArmy formidible fighters]]. Even [[RespectedByTheRespected the Huntress]] admits that if she ever had to fight Blythe in hand-to-hand combat, she would loose to the General by a landslide.

* SensualSlavs: She's a [[StatuesqueStunner Statuesque]] DarkActionGirl with BoobsOfSteel and HartmanHips who speaks with a thick Russian accent.

* TooKinkyToTorture: [[spoiler:During her captivity aboard the ''Turbulence'', she utterly humiliates HARR-E in his attempts to pry any information about the revolution out of her by expressing disappointment in most of his sadistic hacking techniques and actively enjoying a few that do get through her defenses.]]

* MileLongShip: Blythe's flagship, ''SB Turbulence'', is the largest dreadnought in the galaxy (the Imperium ships are much smaller, since their military doctrine focuses on unit agility and speed over size). Commissioned by the Solar Navy before the Battle of Nü Vegas and funded by its massive profits, the ship was captured by the Imperium, but Blythe managed to retrieve it by means unknown. [[spoiler:Chapter 4 elaborates that it was Senator Erark who basically gave her the ship and more on a silver platter as part of his grand scheme.]]

* BountyHunter: Has an unbroken record of over 70 successful collections and a 5-star rating on the [=BountyHelper=] app, making her the #1 ranking bounty hunter in Prodigium.

* TheHunter: Befitting her name, she seems to mainly be after the thrill of the hunt itself, rather than the bounties, preferring to take on the hardest bounties for this reason.

* NippleAndDimed: '''GLORIOUSLY''' [[AvertedTrope averted]] as her areolas are ''always'' visible.

* StacysMom: ''Technically'' she could be considered an example of this trope given how she’s essentially the Mantics’s “mother" [[note]] She IS shown giving birth to them in one of the official doujins but its canonicity is dubious at best [[/note]] and being explicitly referred to as a MILF.

* InsecureLoveInterest: Towards DEMI. In her Devotion [10] dialogue, he flat-out admits that he doesn't deserve her, causing her to reassure him that she is perfectly happy flying with him and his crew, despite having been designed for much greater tasks and purposes.

* BoldlyComing: This, i.e. sexual compatibility of various Prodigium species, is her core area of research. She's also all but stated to have sex with the Mantics she creates.

* ArtificialLimbs: Mentions having lost her left arm during the Battle of Nü Vegas. She has since replaced it with a cybernetic prosthetic.

* MileLongShip: Blythe's flagship, ''SB Turbulence'', is the largest dreadnought in the galaxy (the Imperium ships are much smaller, since their military doctrine focuses on unit agility and speed over size). Commissioned by the Solar Navy before the Battle of Nü Vegas and funded by its massive profits, the ship was captured by the Imperium, but Blythe managed to retrieve it by means unknown.

* TheUnfought: So far. Despite recurrent appearances in cutscenes, the Captain never encounters Blythe in person.

* NotGoodWithPeople: Between her only having left her planet a few years back, her specialization in ''not'' being seen by others, and her preference for machines and gadgets over organics, Taron is very introverted and tends to display little social graces.
