Basic Trope: A non-human character that was raised by humans, and often believes that they are one.

  • Straight: Dracone is a dragon that was raised by humans, and often exhibits humanlike mannerisms.
  • Exaggerated:
    • Dracone was raised by a whole city, and is practically a human with scales, horns, and a tail as a result.
    • All of the non-human characters were raised by humans.
  • Downplayed:
    • Dracone was found by Hiro as an egg, and was raised by him. Dracone has a few humanlike traits, but not many.
    • There aren't any actual humans in the setting, but Dracone was raised by the closest thing the setting has to humans, such as elves.
  • Justified: Dracone was orphaned, and humans found him.
  • Inverted: Raised by Wolves
  • Subverted: ???
  • Double Subverted: ???
  • Parodied: Dracone is legally considered a human, and gets a job in an office. Nobody takes any notice of this.
  • Zig-Zagged: ???
  • Averted: There are no non-human characters raised by humans.

  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: ???
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: ???
  • Implied: Dracone acts significantly more humanlike than other dragons in the work, but it's unknown why.
