Characters / Cyclomaniacs

A collection of tropes relating to characters who appear on the online game series Cyclomaniacs. Currently being worked on.

Introduced in Cyclomaniacs

Robotjam

The protagonist of Cyclomaniacs and Cyclomaniacs Epic. He is the first character unlocked in both games, and his disappearance drives the "plot" of Cyclomaniacs 2. A British, steam-powered robot with balanced stats.

Tropes

• Author Avatar: Of a Kongregate game creator from the UK known as robotJAM.
• Balance Buff: In Epic, he has much better, although still balanced, stats.
• Cool Bike: Both of his bikes.
• Cute Machines: He doesn't look like a threatening robot at all, with his big eyes and rounded edges.
• Grew Beyond Their Programming: He decided to build a fun bike course for all to enjoy in 2.
• Jack of All Stats: Not to the point where he's overpowered, though.
• Ridiculously Human Robots: He can show emotion, talk normally, and eat.
• Steam Never Dies: He still has a steam-powered bike in the future.
• Steampunk: Both him and his bike.

The King

The protagonist of Cyclomaniacs 2 who was a supporting character before. An Elvis Impersonator (maybe) with one of the better stunt/wheelie bikes in-game.

Tropes

• Elvis Has Left the Planet: When he, along with the other riders, goes to space in the first game.
• Elvis Impersonator: If you couldn't tell by his name.
• Elvis Lives: It's hinted at this in 2.
• He's Just Hiding: His bio in 2 suggests he was presumed dead.
• No Celebrities Were Harmed: He's clearly based on Elvis Presley. Even his bikes are named after Elvis songs in Epic.
• Suddenly Voiced: In 2. And his voice sounds suspiciously like Elvis.
• The Power of Friendship: How he saves the other riders in 2.

Ninja

Formerly known as Crouching Badger, he is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. A ninja who is one of the fastest in-game characters.

Tropes

• Gratuitous Ninja: Why they advertised him as the main character in 2, because EVERYTHING is better with ninjas.
• McNinja: Turns out he's not Japanese.
• Stealth Expert: What do you expect, he's a ninja?
• Sudden Name Change: For some reason, he's just called "Ninja" in 2 and Epic despite his name in Cyclomaniacs.
• Super-Speed: Was the fastest character in the first game.
• The Stoic: It's implied in his Cyclomaniacs bio.
