I think this should have the alternate title "trash" or "trash mobs" for MMORPGS
Added a folder for the mook subtropes. It's a lot to scroll past.
"Freedom is not a license for chaos" -Norton Juster's The Dot and the Line: A Romance in Lower MathematicsI really like how the picture and caption expertly describes the trope using a well known pop culture example, without a single joke to confusing the issue.

"Note #2: It's also a mostly obsolete racial slur against Italians, so use with caution."

"GOOMBAS!"
What's the proper pronunciation of the term "mook"? Does it rhyme with book, or spook?
Edited by deadmanRise Hide / Show RepliesI've always pronounced it like "spook," but I have nothing to base it on.
What's with the angry tone of the article? Seems to be a lot of complaining about having these guys be mowed down by the heroes. We have a different trope for that.
Does anyone know what the actual Trope Namer is?
Hide / Show RepliesBatman??? Only place I have ever seen the word used (T Vtropes not withstanding of course).
Edited by wswordsmenCryptic Mirror add mean streets as an example it should be in there if it is possible Trope Namer.
For video games, zombies of left 4 dead 12
and special zombies like Tank or Witch as elite mooks.
I'd prefer the term "henchmen" myself.
