5
6	Cryaotic (otherwise known as Cry, or more rarely by his old channel name [=ChaoticMonki=]) is a Let's Player and streamer. With a [[CozyVoiceForCatastrophes smooth voice]], an [[VideoGameCaringPotential abiding love]] for most characters he meets, and [[MemeticMutation a beautiful laugh]], Cry found his niche on Website/YouTube playing story- and character-heavy games that he got invested in alongside his watchers. As a result, his [[https://www.youtube.com/user/ChaoticMonki/featured channel]] houses Let's Plays of a wide range of video game titles and genres, and also makes no use of facecam.
7
8	Like many other [=YouTubers=], Cry got his start playing horror games, particularly ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'', but he's since become less interested in playing horror games for their own sake, preferring to play titles that interest him. He was also known for collaborating with other creators in the [=YouTube=] LP community, most prominently WebVideo/PewDiePie, and running a [[http://www.twitch.tv/cryaotic Twitch channel]] where he hosted "Late Night with Cry and Russ" with the Late Night Crew group in addition to his own streams of various games.
9
10	On June 20, 2020, Cry was accused of engaging in explicit activity with numerous women, some of which were underage at the time of the misconduct. He admitted to these actions on social media, and was subsequently removed from the Late Night Crew as well as the cast of ''VisualNovel/MonsterProm''. Ex-fans on his [[Website/{{Reddit}} subreddit]] compiled a timeline of accusations, occurrences, and instances of concerning behavior that dated as far back as around 2011.
11
12	He went on an indefinite hiatus from the Internet following the accusations, and was permanently banned from Twitch on September 10, 2020. In November of that year, his Website/{{Twitter}} profile picture was changed to a black square with text reading "More To Come", implying a comeback; however, he has still not been heard from since.

207	!!Others
208	* [To be added...]
209	[[/folder]]
210	----
211	!!Cry's videos have examples of the following tropes:
212	* AbortedArc: A few playthroughs were CutShort, most of them out of lack of interest.
213	* BerserkButton:
214	** Harming animals, especially dogs and cats since he is an owner of both.
215	** He also expresses displeasure at things like racism and gender roles (see ''Bioshock Infinite'' and ''The Cat Lady'').
216	** Cry is definitely not a fan of clipping textures.
217	** Don't ask him to show his face in his videos, even on collaborations where others have facecams. He really ''really'' doesn't want to.
218	** Don't ask him questions that you already know the answer to. He became enraged when a viewer asked if he was pansexual.
219	** He doesn't like being called a sellout very much either, unless it's in jest.
220	** Cry is liable to fly off the handle if enough people pester him during a playthrough or try to backseat-game, ''especially'' if he's being bugged about something he was going to do anyways.
221	* BigBrotherInstinct:
222	** Tends to get very emotionally attached to characters he protects in-game (for example, Ellie from ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' and Elizabeth from ''VideoGame/BioshockInfinite''). Harm to these characters cause him to get [[RoaringRampageOfRevenge very, very angry]].
223	** Has even made a song with Boyinaband about this called "Limelight". You can listen to it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IvvO-ndDLVE here]].
224	** He has this for Blue and Orange in ''VideoGame/BrothersATaleOfTwoSons''.
225	* BuffySpeak: One of his endearing traits, especially if he's flustered or distracted by what's on-screen.
226	* CasualKink: At the start of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kF4D1che6Q Monster Prom]], during the pop quiz a question comes up about what you would ask a genie for. One answer is [[TakeAThirdOption "I don't ask for anything. I drink the genie from the bottle. I can grant my own wishes!"]]. Cry chooses this answer because vore is hot.
227	* {{Catchphrase}}: "'Sup guys?" to the point that his face-mask avatar is called the Sup Guy.
228	* CloudCuckoolander: Cry is known to strike up "conversations" at random with inanimate objects, and go off on tangents about subjects completely unrelated to the narrative. Exaggerated if he is sleep deprived while recording.
229	* ClusterFBomb: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNWpg90uuoA This]] (WARNING: loud volume) angry tirade about him being fed up with people asking him if he's pansexual or not. Note that for context, Cry was drunk and had a couple years' worth of pent-up frustration to get off his chest.
230	* CozyVoiceForCatastrophes: Cry has a very soft and pleasant voice that contrasts nicely with the sort of games he plays. Since he never shows his face, it's one of his most recognizable traits.
231	* CurseCutShort: During his playthrough of ''VisualNovel/CorpseParty'', when he [[spoiler:doesn't escape Heavenly Host in time and gets a bad ending]]:
232	-->'''Yuki''': [[spoiler:Welcome to Heavenly Host Elementary school... giggle cackle]]\
233	''{{Beat}}''\
234	'''Cry''': Son of a BI—\
235	''cut to a retry''
236	* CuteAndPsycho: Hitting his BerserkButton or triggering his PapaWolf mode can result in this.
237	* CutenessProximity:
238	** Over the Sparrows in ''VideoGame/{{Okami}}'', especially Chun.
239	** Also over Riki in ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'', to the point where equipping Riki with cute armor leads to an emotional rant questioning why such a good game isn't more popular.
240	* DeepImmersionGaming: Cry has a tendency to become extremely emotionally involved in the games he plays, and he'll often make up his own backstories to add onto each game. Examples include:
241	** One of the most notable examples of this is his video for the game ''Which?''. He can become pissed off whenever something outside of the game he currently plays (i.e. his cat) [[BerserkButton breaks his immersion]].
242	** Present in his gameplay of the ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'', when he goes on his RoaringRampageOfRevenge to [[spoiler:save Ellie]] at the end of the game. He gets very serious and his voice gets growly.
243	** When he played ''The Cat Lady'', he became so emotionally involved half-time that he started to [[ProperlyParanoid openly threaten any character that might harm Susan or Mitzi]].
244	* DisappearedDad / ParentalAbandonment: It's mentioned a couple of times that Cry's dad left when he was a baby.
245	* DissonantSerenity: When he's not freaking out, he can keep his voice and tone remarkably steady given what's going on.
246	* EvilLaugh: He can do a very good one, and has demonstrated on several occasions. It's really bone-chilling.
247	* {{Foreshadowing}}: In ''The Mirror Lied'', he at one point says, [[spoiler:"Turn off that candle; we're gonna start a house fire..."]]
248	* TheFaceless: Cry has never shown his face on camera before, with a cartoon character referred to as the "Sup Dude" representing him in his ''The Numbers'' videos. His drawn portrayals in artwork and [=YouTube=] video thumbnails invariably make him human with a white, featureless mask when he's not Sup Dude. This is kind of a sore point for him. People tend to bug him to use a face-cam despite him making it clear a number of times that he ''really doesn't want to''.
249	** The amounts of asks for this pitched at the start of 2017 again since another faceless, LetsPlay/{{Mangaminx}}, has decided to show herself, arguing that he should do so as well.
250	* FreezeFrameBonus: Cry will often put in text in his vids, either to explain time skips or to put in hilarious commentary. [[BerserkButton Or to point out clipping textures.]]
251	* FriendToAllChildren: He likes child characters very much and will often go to great lengths to protect them or seek vengeance against anyone who does harm to them.
252	* GenreSavvy: The moment the Fox Rods were retrieved and [[spoiler:Rao came to claim them]], Cry immediately suspected that it can't be good.
253	* HeroicBSOD: This is best shown in Walking Dead Season 2 episode 3 [[spoiler: where he went against his pappa wolf tendencies]] which left him temporarily depressed in part 2.
254	* HiddenDepths:
255	** He's got a talent for voice acting, which was apparent in his readings of {{Creepypasta}}, but became much more noticeable in VisualNovel/CorpseParty, ''especially'' with his voice for [[LaughingMad Kizami]].
256	** Lead to him actually voice acting in the remake of ''VideoGame/Downfall2009'' as one of the dead.
257	** He's also apparently a fan of Music/TheBeachBoys, if his [[{{Squee}} reaction]] to hearing the barbershop quartet singing "God Only Knows" in ''VideoGame/BioShockInfinite''.
258	* INeedAFreakingDrink: Said in a humorous way in the second episode for ''VideoGame/RememberMe''
259	-->"That Tommy better have some really delicious drinks. ''{{beat}}'' I need some milk."
260	* NeverWorkWithChildrenOrAnimals: While Cry's cat doesn't ''work'' per se, it does interrupt his recordings at times, distracting Cry from narrating.
261	--> "There is a cat on my lap."
262	* OhCrap: Is very fond of this reaction, often accompanied by a PrecisionFStrike.
263	** This is his reaction during his ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale'' playthrough when he realized that the guy Clementine and the rest of the group were staying with [[spoiler:was the boyfriend of Matthew, the man they accidentally killed on the bridge]].
264	* PapaWolf:
265	** Is ''very'' protective of [[MoralityPet Clementine]] in his VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale'' videos.
266	--> "You know, if Clementine hurt herself on that glass… [[DisproportionateRetribution I'd cut you]]."
267	** Also becomes fond of Ellie from ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' and Elizabeth from ''VideoGame/BioshockInfinite''. Cry does ''not'' take it well when they are threatened.
268	** Also present with Jodie from VideoGame/BeyondTwoSouls. Especially underlined by the very fun possibilities controlling Aiden gives you. The birthday party and bar scenes are particularly jarring examples.
269	** Recently Cry released a [[http://youtu.be/IvvO-ndDLVE music video named "Limelight"]] as a collaboration with another Youtuber all about his PapaWolf tendencies.
270	** While playing ''The Walking Dead Season 2 episode 4'' he was forced to make a difficult decision. Needless to say, the outcome had a very big impact on him and he continually reassured himself that his actions were justified and was notably saddened through the second part of the video. He was also distraught and crying twice in season 2 episode 5
271	** [[spoiler: While playing ''Telltales Walking Dead: A New Frontier'' he became fond of Mariana and happily stated that he had a candy bar for her but he became horrified when Mariana was shot and killed seconds later. He reluctantly agreed to Conrad's idea when he held Gabriel hostage and became self loathing for betraying Clementine.]]
272	* PleaseSubscribeToOurChannel: Notably averted. Cry makes a big deal of ''not'' doing this. He even parodies it occasionally. The fact that he has over 2 million subscribers regardless is quite telling.
273	* {{Pluralses}}: Used intentionally to quirky effect.
274	* PsychoKnifeNut: When he goes on his RoaringRampageOfRevenge in ''VideoGame/BeyondTwoSouls'' at one point he says "Knives, my favorite," and begins to laugh when he hits one of the bullies.
275	* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: The [[AuthorAvatar Sup]] [[http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m8l4jcZrqp1qbhy43o1_500.jpg Guys]].
276	* RunningGag:
277	** Any time an ellipsis appears onscreen, it will always be pronounced out-loud as "dots".
278	** In earlier playthroughs, Cry would play the Trololo Song when he needed to speed up any gameplay where he's not getting anything done (ex. a long sequence in Limbo in which he could not figure out a puzzle).
279	** Specific to the ''VideoGame/LifeIsStrange'' playthrough: Whenever a character mentions Rachel (the girl shown on the missing posters around the school) and he responds with confusion, a spliced-in clip of Cry reading out her name just forty seconds earlier plays.
280	* SelfDeprecatingHumor: Happens in his Let's Play of ''Nightmare House 2''. He spends a great deal of time looking for a key, but continuously walks past it. White text was edited in and points to the key each time he passes it. Finally, the video actually pauses and Editing Cry can be heard screaming "It's right there!"
281	** He has similarly lampshaded his own mistakes in several other series as well.
282	* SirSwearsALot: Whenever he gets scared, frustrated, or blindsided. Other than that, he's pretty chill.
283	* SociallyAwkwardHero: Despite making thousands of videos for the public he refuses to reveal his identity because he is uncomfortable around social situations and wants to protect his family from obsessive fans.
284	* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Cry answers to Chaotic Monki, Cryaotic, Cry, and Cry-Cry among other variations, but his preferred handle is Cryaotic, with Cry for short.[[note]] In one of the livestreams, he explained that Chaotic Monki was a handle he created but never liked, so he copied another user to create the handle Cryosine, which earned him the nickname "Cry." Never entirely comfortable with mimicking another user, he later fused the two to create something uniquely his own (Cryaotic).[[/note]]
285	* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Invoked in his ''VideoGame/BioshockInfinite'' videos, where he gets to have fun with the RPG and Volley Launcher.
286	** Exaggerated when he finds the [[spoiler:[[https://youtu.be/aX7t37EX6no?t=1240 Charge Vigor]].]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=agKaMf4902g The animated version]] only improves on it.
287	* UnsoundEffect: Many. In ''VisualNovel/CorpseParty'', he often reads out sound effects as they're written, such as "sob", "sniffle", or the above-mentioned "dots".
288	* VerbalTic:
289	** He tends to preface his statements with "Listen...", as pointed out in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGNuwvHYi7E this stream highlights video.]]
290	** Cry also has a tendency, when distraught or otherwise in an emotionally intense moment, to give a PrecisionFStrike, followed by a [[{{Beat}} short pause]], and then another F-Strike just to punctuate the situation.
291	* VideoGameCaringPotential: Given a choice, Cry is more likely to take the "good" path with his decisions, and will avoid killing whenever possible. Most noticeable in ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDeadTelltale'' and also ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'', where he went for the full-mercy route.
292	* VideoGameCrueltyPotential:
293	** He seems to be enjoying butchering people in Lucius a little too much...
