Wimpification is being renamed to Ukefication per Trope Repair Shop discussion.


* {{Wimpification}} - What happened to Nick Dentling, aka Volpone's personal secretary and civil partner as the 2007-08 series (which is reckoned to be non-canon but was a pretty long story in its own right, covering from the rise of Gordon Brown to the Olympics) progressed. Any resemblance to Nick Clegg is purely and absolutely [[LifeImitatesArt coincidental]]. Ahem. In the 2009 and 2010 series, Dentling was redrafted as Young Spawn - first introduced in early 2005 in strips entitled "A Portrait of the Vampire as a Young Spawn" as Generalissimo celebrated 20 years in government and went on a nostalgia kick. Arguably Young Spawn, who reappeared babysitting Baby Volp (whom he found down a Kent coal mine during the Miner's Strike and subsequently adopted), can be read as another take on Clegg - ''a year before the Coalition was formed''. Naturally any more attempts to define Dentling/Spawn would lead to mere satire rather than genuine precognition, so the character has been retired pending a further dramatic niche for him to occupy independent of current events.

Not enough context to tell if any of the current Corvid Tropes applies.
