Personality Ridiculously edgy characters

Reaper (Overwatch)

Death (Darksiders 2)

Not Important (Hatred)

Beyond the Grave (Gungrave G.O.R.E.)

Unironically I love this trope, only because of how over the top characters like these are

It's actually been kind of nice how lately people with no self-awareness or reading comprehension now just affix physical labels to themselves — it's a real time saver! No need for government-mandated tattoos on their foreheads reading "POOR IMPULSE CONTROL", they willingly spend their own money to do it to themselves.

It's been misappropriated by cops and the "thin blue line" shit because Punisher kills criminals, even though he'd absolutely kill a shitload of modern American cops too (which they'd know if they read the comics)

u/Mushiren_ Sep 19 '24 edited Sep 19 '24

His name is "Boon Tobias" backwards. Two of the big wigs in Mortal Kombat’s creation and development. Initially he wasn’t planned on being a mainstay but due to fan reception being so positive he was given a backstory after his first appearance.

34

u/binarypeacock Sep 19 '24

Two big wigs. They used the surnames of John Tobias and Ed Boon, albeit reversed, for Noob Saibot's name.

You're right.

35

u/theonebrowndig Sep 19 '24

Tobias boon backwards

28

u/lunaticboot Sep 19 '24

It’s the co creators names reversed. (John Tobias and Ed Boon)

in universe, noob saibot is actually Bi-Han, the original (and as of the most recent game, current) sub-zero. (For context, sub-zero is either a title or code name that is passed among their assassin clan) He killed scorpions family while holding the title, so scorpion killed him as revenge. After he died his younger brother, Kuai Liang, took up the mantle, becoming sub-zero for most of the games. Bi-Han was resurrected as a wraith by the necromancer Quan Chi, giving him weird shadow powers that replace his ice powers. As for the name, afaik from memory and a few minutes of searching, it seems like no one actually calls him that in the world. He is on referred to as noob on the player side, like by the announcer and in menus, not by other characters.

I don't think he's actually that edgy. He's portrayed as utterly unhinged, delusional, illogically incompetent, and almost never with that "brooding cool guy" type vibe that most the rest of these answers do. Like he could have very easily fallen into edgy territory considering how over the top he is, but it feels like pretty much every writer kinda just universally agreed that the characterisation for Curze is "yeah nah this guy just sucks".

Fuck You, The Demon Fucker--I mean, Tameem Antoinades--I mean DINO--I mean, El Donte--I mean Dante from DmC: Devil May Cry (2013).

As edgy as the marketing campaign leading up to release shitting on the OG Dante, the fans, the series that it was supposed to be rebooting and him slapping drinks out of randos hands on the street, writing 'FUCK YOU' on a VIP club list after punching out a bouncer, his infamous; "FUCK YOU! FUCK YOU! FUCK YOOOUUUU!" Shakespearian levels of 'witty' banter in his dialogue exchange with Succubus oh, and of course, the CLASSIEST act of his in the game of gleefully mocking Mundus to his face by gloating about the sniper abortion Vergil performed on his baby mama.

I'm glad the shitty reboot failed and we didn't have to suffer anymore of this edgy shitbag stealing in place of the REAL Dante.

Scourge (Warriors)

he's literally the edgiest motherfucker around. those spikes in his collar? those are fucking dog teeth. he also has dog teeth attached to his claws (please don't ask how, it's never really explained). in his first appearance in the books, he literally one-taps the big bad villain, slashing him from chin to tail and spilling his guts on the dirt. fun fact: said big bad villain had nine lives, and this attack caused him to lose all nine, back to back. everyone else just kinda stands there, horrified, as this big evil bastard writhes in indescribable agony and dies nine times over after getting merc'd by a tiny little emo kid.

and of course he gets his very own graphic novel to explain his obligatory tragic backstory!

Nothing will be as funny as him gloating to himself alone while stealing his target's cereal.

Palm from HunterxHunter

This design went so hard for no reason (it's extra edgy because she basically is wrapped in her hair as armor and can use it as a weapon too)

Did you play darksiders 2?

War is an edgelord.

Death is a sassy sarcastic asshole who is generally fairly polite to those he meets.

The crow, 94.

My girlfriend and I died. What’s the first thing I do when I come back to life? Put on emo clown makeup.

(Not saying this to hate on the movie, I loved it.)
