Editing AlphaOmega's Tropes (section)

===John Palmer===
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MagnificentBastard Magnificent Bastard] - Yeah.  Just....yeah.
<br>[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GuileHero Guile Hero] - John might also be this, some days.  It really comes down to how you view his actions.  Which leads to....
<br>Either [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AntiHero Anti Hero] or an [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/AntiVillain AntiVillain] - Depends on who you're asking.<br>
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TooCleverByHalf Too Clever By Half]<br>
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BadassBureaucrat Badass Bureaucrat] What John was built to be.  We haven't gotten to see this in action yet, but give it time....<br>
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/TheStoic The Stoic] - John always seems to keep his expression blank, no matter what happens; the only times he shows emotions, it tends to be in a split-second, blink-and-you-miss-it sort of way.  It's also likely that when he lets his mask drop, it's entirely deliberate on his part.<br>
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/VetinariParadox Vetinari Paradox] - 9 AM:  John is removed from power.  10 AM:  The cops are given a complete rundown of everyone in his former organization.  7 PM:  The entire city has been turned into a zombie-infested shadowland.  Bet they wish they hadn't kicked him out now....<br>
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DealWithTheDevil Deal With the Devil] - It's pretty much what he does.  And he does it ''really'' well.  (The fact that the unofficial tarot has him as the devil is surely just a coincidence.)<br>
[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ptitle1b1m5fiycpie Chekhov's Skill] - Eclipse Oathbinding apparently kept a group of vampires from being mindfucked by Troile... Hm...
<br>[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NervesOfSteel Nerves of Steel] - Troile hits the Ellipse and all of their allies with a high-level Presence/Dominate technique.  John, specifically, gets smacked with pants-wetting blinding terror.  His response is to blink and get irritated. He then proceeds to call her out, insulting her repeatedly, and waits calmly for a response. From a Antediluvian Deathlord.  He also shrugs off a Presence 10 mindscrew and blows a good-sized hole in Troile, before [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NonchalantDodge dodging her retaliatory strike] (that took down half a dozen Garou) -- all without so much as changing his facial expression.
<br>[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ShutUpHannibal Shut Up Hannibal] - Troile attempts to intimidate everyone after the crossover to the Umbra.  John just laughs in her face, then lists off all of her recent failures.
<br>[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FlippingTheBird Flipping the Bird]/[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu Did You Just Flip Off Cthulu] - What John (as his totemic Umbra form, the Sealed Oath) does to Troile, shortly before opening fire.
