For the solemn few reading this, I am Vapour Soul OS. My appearances here aren't permanent.

Tropes that apply to Vapour Soul OS

     A to C 
  • Age-Gap Algebra: Due to a bad experience in high school where I developed an attraction to a girl younger than me (and never acted on it out of fear), I'm very mindful of age differences. Bloom Seymour and I had an 8 year ago which made things quite difficult, so I believed that any "relationship" between us was doomed to failure. As it turned out, my feelings were actually platonic all along. Fortunately Bloom wasn't real and her creator Cibryll is 2 years older than me.
  • Artists Are Attractive: I'm artistically talented and can be considered attractive. I've also noticed that some of women I was attracted to tended to also have artistic talent and creativity.
  • Useful Notes/Anarchism: I'm an Anarcho-Individualist who believes in my own power and doing things through my own force of will. I've also embraced Anarcha-Feminism which I believe is the logical conclusion of feminism's goals and is everything feminism should be.
  • Celibate Hero: As I've learnt, my life is actually far better when I engage in abstinence and avoid sex and romance. To this end, I'm an asexual man who also believes in antisexuality because it is against a lot of things I consider wrong with sexualized culture.
  • Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: I tend use a lot of colours in my work so I'll often use colour tropes either consciously or unconsciously.
  • Child Hater: I do not like children. At all. I cannot stand their crying and whining and I find them utterly repulsive. As such, I go out of my way to avoid them or if physical avoidance is impossible at refuse to engage with them.
  • CloudCuckoolander: My humour is crazy enough that I either come off as really strange. Hell, it was one of the reasons I ended up being friends with Bloom Seymour, a sockpuppet of Cibryll's. However, this facet of my personality rarely has chance to manifest itself due to my serious demeanour.

     D to F 
  • Defeat Means Friendship: Ever since ending The Aeonian Night, I've been on far better terms with Cibryll. Granted I was already friends with some of her sockpuppets and I still trusted her even back then.
  • Useful Notes/Depression: Due to my traumatic experiences during high school, I may've developed this at some point. I definitely did have it during my college days and while it's mostly gone, I do think it's possible that my general apathy towards life may've stemmed from depressive tendencies.
  • Determinator: When I want to get something done, I'll do my damnedest to get it done.
    • The Aeonian Night and my willingness to lead my friends to victory took several years but it was ultimately worth it and I never gave up.
  • Dream Reality Checks: I'll look at all of my fingers on both sides, poke a finger through my palm and try to read text. It'd help if I were to do this more often to increase my lucid dream chances. As it turns out, learning to ask myself "Am I dreaming, right now" is proving to be more helpful.note 
  • Dream Weaver: I'm hoping that I can learn how to lucid dream, and I've had a few successful attempts of semi-lucidity but not the full on experience.
  • Evil Overlord: I had a phase during my high-school days where I pretended to be one to cope with my frustration with my powerlessness. I eventually got over it.

     G to L 
  • Game Mod: I'm been working on one called Gun which involves a budding Villain Protagonist fighting giant machines in order to join their uprising. Aside from that, I've been hoping to make my own ROM Hacks soon as well as playing Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS mods.
  • Knight Templar: As much as I want to do right, sometimes I have to take less than stellar methods to do the right thing.
  • Last Lousy Point: My stance when it comes to finishing work near the end of the year. Also obtaining things in certain video games.
  • Like Brother and Sister: My friendship with Tropers/Cibryll is much like this though this was after coming to grips with understanding platonic love and relationships. If anything, it can be considered an evolution of my friendship with Bloom Seymour though it seems to have become it's own wonderful thing.
  • Loony Friends Improve Your Personality: Again, Tropers{{/Cibryll}}. Also my other friends at the forums. As it turns out, this might end up being the case for any female friends I may have in the future.

     M to T 
  • Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant: As I've said, some of my humor tends to make me come off as strange, I also like dark material (on the Psychological Horror or Surreal Horror side of things) and it does show to some degree.
  • Obliquely Obfuscated Occupation: If people start asking about my job, I will try to avoid the conversation because it's none of their business and I don't want anything I do being traced back to my workplace.
  • Odd Friendship: During the Aeonian Night, I've been friends (and had feelings for a few of) with some of Cibryll's sockpuppets. Bloom Leigh Seymournote  was one particular example that has made quite the impact on me, enough so that I wish to meet an attractive woman like her in terms of personality and interests. It's thanks to her that I seem to have an idea of what I'd want in a real flesh and blood woman.
  • Pretty Boy: I've grown more into this archetype, though I tend to mix this with Carpetof Virility.
  • Path of Most Resistance: When it comes to video games with multiple endings or secret levels/ true final levels, I'll end up doing those routes first.
  • PeekABangs: My hair is long enough that it tends to cover both of my ears and the left side of my head.
  • Red Oni, Blue Oni: I dress in red and depict myself in red armour, yet I'm the Blue Oni to Troper/Cibryll's Red Oni.
  • Rule-Abiding Rebel: I tend to follow the rules of my superiors though I much prefer to do my own thing. I'll only rebel when I've had enough of it all.
  • Sampling: I've taken an interest in trying to "create" music tracks by cobbling together various parts of different tracks. So far I've done this for mods I've been working on. Sometimes it goes differently than I expected (such as it becoming an unintentional remix)
  • Silent Treatment: Since I dislike using violence unless nessessary, the best way for me to deal with people that I hate or whom are in my bad books are to avoid them like the plague and flat out refuse to engage with them at all. For example I ended up doing this to my work supervisor after she rejected me because she already had a boyfriend and I felt that it would be manipulative and disingenuous to form a friendship with the ulterior motive of getting her to reciprocate my feelings for her at a later date.
  • Surreal Horror: Some of my Photoshop creations tend to be the end result of this. The same could said of some of my drawings; when it comes to designing them for game concepts, I try to save them for endgame or postgame dungeons. (Unless of course the entire game has horror elements)
  • Terse Talker: In the real world, I'm far less verbose because I'm not interested in talking to others and dislike small talk. At worst, this tendency becomes a case of Empty Shell.
  • The Comically Serious: Due to my serious demeanour combined with some of the things I say, this tends to be the end result.
  • The Quiet One: Most of the time, I tend to stay silent while thinking to myself. I cannot stand small talk because I simply do not see the point in it and it gets on my nerves.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: I was a major edgelord during my high-school days due to it being horrible. As a result, I took it out on internet denizens before joining the Vresun Ciraian Ruins Forums.

    • Limerence might be connected to seperation anxiety and intrusive thoughts.

Trope Ideas

NOTE: The name is borrowed from a TLP page that someone else created, because I thought it had potential. I'm not sure yet if elemental angels are a concept that is tropeworthy or if there is any demand for such a trope to be made so this one will be in stasis until I can find more examples.

Freezing Brimstone Hell: Instead of the typical Fire and Brimstone Hell, Hell is portrayed as a cold place where Evil Is Deathly Cold is in full effect.

  • Examples:
  • Contrast:

NOTE: I've noticed that a few final boss themes sometimes use this naming convention but it doesn't seem to be all that widespread. Perhaps certain types of musicals such as Movements or Suites could be added as examples to flesh out this particular idea.

NOTE: An inverted trope for New Game Plus. Esoteric, but it could be quite interesting if enough examples can be found. However it could be a case of Too Rare to Trope so it might not get very far in the Launch Pad.

NOTE: Its original version Involuntary Celibate Villain proved to be quite controversial, earning a lot of bombs despite the many examples given. Either it can be used for villains who are based off actual types of people in the Manosphere or fictional characters who have traits consistent with the Manosphere.

Trope Launch

  • Friendship-Hating Antagonist SUCCESS
  • Involunatary Celibate Villain FAILIURE (Reason: Despite getting a lot of examples from different tropers, the community hated the draft enough to decide it deserved to be bombed)
  • Main Character Final Boss SUCCESS
  • Individuality Index SUCCESS
  • Straw Individual FAILURE (Reason: Nuked it myself because there was no demand for it)
  • Community Index
     Scrapped Trope Ideas 
NOTE: The idea is quite esoteric but it could be quite interesting if I can get some examples for this. Alternate names for this could be Last Episode Main Character, 11th Hour Protagonist or Last Second Protagonist.

NOTE: Much like Final Hour Protagonist, it could be interesting but it also seems to suffer from being overly specific. Then again, perhaps it could use a different name such as Side Character Turned Minion, Side Character Minion NOTE (20/10/23): This is already covered by Temporarily a Villain.
