As for hunter10bt saying \\\"A little in-character fluff does not hurt\\\"... I have to say that sometimes, fluff doesn\\\'t really make sense depending on the character... specifically if tropers were trying to link Eidolon/Trace gameplay and lore when they can be misinterpreted in another way, or are not exactly GameplayAndStoryIntegration at all.

For one particular example on why I agreed trimming fluff was needed... Someone added too much in-character fluff or PurpleProse to [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=16806356030A05135400&page=29#comment-710 Welt\\\'s Trace and Eidolon]] when they didn\\\'t make sense. Frankly, Welt\\\'s old and lengthy character Trace/Eidolon paragraph could be attributed to tropers (likely newer [=miHoYo=] fans) mixing up Welt\\\'s Herrscher of Reason powers and the Star of Eden, which may contradict the lore (in-game, Welt himself has a dialogue in the Parlor Car saying these two are different matters entirely). Worse case, people were likely making up descriptions for Welt when they haven\\\'t played \\\'\\\'VideoGame/HonkaiImpact3rd\\\'\\\' to know what they\\\'re actually writing about him.

\\\'\\\'\\\'Edit:\\\'\\\'\\\' Almost forgot to mention, but there are tropers in the \\\'\\\'Genshin\\\'\\\' forum [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=15997691390A35333400&page=273#comment-6810 who are just fine]] with streamlining descriptions and removing fluff from the \\\'\\\'Genshin\\\'\\\' pages as well.

I feel like Percy from Critical Role (specifically his portrayal in the new Legend of Vox Machina show) should be listed here. He carries a revolver, called the pepperbox, and every barrel is engraved with the name of someone who ruined his life (most non-spoilery description I can give.)
