Introduction
Good morning/afternoon/evening to you!
I'm Azorius24, a habitual troper from the UK. I've done a bit of everything, from launching several tropes and work pages, periodically troping current interests, taking some pages to the Trope Repair Shop, and fixing errors I come across.

TLP Ideas
- Corporate Dynasty: A major commercial interest controlled by a single family, often portrayed in a manner akin to nobility or royalty.
- Domain Of Decadence: A district, town, city or even country known for being inhabited by the wealthy.
- Locked In Possession: A character is conscious and aware while their body is controlled by someone or something else.
- Looking At Me Funny: Villain kills, or brags about killing, an Innocent Bystander for an incredibly petty reason.
- Terror Weapon: A weapon designed or used to intimidate or frighten enemies.
- The Young Pretender: A child is, for reasons innocent or not, falsely believed to be the heir to the throne.
- Deluge Of Doors: A massive number of doors close together, serving little to no practical purpose.
- Curious Challenge: Characters are forced to compete in a bizarre contest of skill.
- Scramble For Salvation: There's a way to escape The End of the World as We Know It: but only for a certain few. It's gonna get ugly.
- Hollywood Bodyguards: Bodyguards in fiction tend to be portrayed in a certain manner.
- Confused Grenade Glance: Mooks and Red Shirts never realise that the strange object that landed in front of them might be dangerous. (Iron Man 3, Clone Wars)
- Difficulty Dependent Feature (YMMV): The utility of mechanic in a videogame varies dramatically depending on the difficulty played.
- Techno Thriller: A sub-genre which could deserve its own trope.
- Extraction Shooter: Could be considered distinct enough to be separated from Looter Shooter.
- Feared Figure Threat: Invoking the name of The Dreaded to scare others into doing what you want.
- Ominous Floating Threat: Large aircraft(s) hanging in the sky above an area as an intimidation tactic.
Tropes Needing Work
- Common HTTP Status Code (Not thriving, debatably tropeworthy)
- Suspiciously Idle Officers (Not thriving)
- Non-Lethal Bottomless Pits (Needs improved description)
- Hostage Video (same as above)
- The Brigadier (Needs crosswicking to main page, and removal/clean-up of ZCEs)
- Heroes "R" Us (Needs to be more specifically defined, and perhaps divided into multiple tropes)
- And I Must Scream (Need to do something with my wick check, presumably to split off "possession" and "entrapment")
- General Ripper, Insane Admiral & Colonel Kilgore (Overlap, need clearer definitions and cleanup of misuse)
- Handguns: (Is this one Chairs?)
- Self-Fanservice: This is definitely a thing, but, especially in light of Fanart At First Sight being cut, I feel this could be another Chair because every character will be considered attractive by someone.
Pages Needing Work
- NightmareFuel.Atomic Heart: Continuous poor grammar.
- Imperium Ascendant: Needs better description.
