KILLING women or MURDERING them. What the fuck is the difference?

This tweet has fascinated me ever since I first saw it six years ago. Dimitri from Fire Emblem Three Houses. A man that not only KILLS women but MURDERS them. What does this mean? Who knows.

...but I'm sure you've had a character at least once who you've thought about this question in relation to. Do they kill women? Or do they murder them? Let's find out.

These polls are going to be confusing and mean absolutely nothing, but I'm honestly just looking to see how this will all play out.

Submit via DMs or asks! Characters do *not* have to be men. It is greatly preferred that you attach a picture, and please specify if you would not like me to tag you in the post. (If you don't I will assume you are okay with it!)

Please keep discussions light and don't start any actual discourse here! This is all in good fun!

Abort That Thing Tournament: Group 1, Poll 7

Carmen Diaz vs Every Woman in Fire Emblem vs Professor Pericles

Carmen Diaz - Cobra Kai

Every Woman in Fire Emblem - Fire Emblem

Professor Pericles - Scooby Doo

Voting ended onJul 13, 2025

PROPAGANDA BELOW THE CUT:

Carmen Diaz: Maam you are a single mom with a son about to go to college and also the karate war & your baby daddy Johnny Lawrence is a jobless alcoholic who has already canonically abandoned one child. KILL THAT THANG!!!!!!!!!

She was already a single teen mom and now she is middle aged and her son is getting ready to graduate and head off to college. She's dating an alcoholic with no job who is already a deadbeat dad. She's a nurse who presumably knows about the wonder that is birth control. The baby is specifically a band aid baby to reward their main character whom they live vicariously through.

Every Woman in Fire Emblem: Almost every female character’s storyline, if you choose to romance them, ends with them settling down to have two kids with you & become a housewife. Even the most adventurous women who’s whole goal in life is to travel and see the world and stuff. They happily settle down into domesticity and pop out some kids. They should abort that thing and get back on the road!

Professor Pericles: this fuck ass parrot has made it his life's mission to terrorise a group of teenagers. he tries to kill the members of mystery incorporated multiple times and succeeds in killing some of their allies, one of which is a teenage girl. all he wants is power and he would definitely kill any children he had if it got him closer to his goals

The Edge Of Dawn

Simulation Swarm

Voting ended onJul 10, 2025

The Edge of Dawn (Fire Emblem Three Houses)

Don't ever take back your kind hand/Lest precious love slip away like time's sand/Only we will know all that we've lost/Scars that we can't erase show us life's true cost/Open the door, and walk away/Never give in to the call of yesterday/Memories that made those days sublime/These ruined halls entomb stolen time

"The context makes this song. It's about a 17 year old girl who has resolved that she must ascend the throne at 18 and wage a bloody war to ensure a better future for her people. She has one year at school to make the connections she needs and get into the right position to finally spring her plan. But still, she's a 17 year old girl. As much as she tries to not let emotion cloud her judgement, she loves her friends and her teacher. She doesn't know if they will leave her when she reveals her true intentions. She wishes she could simply be a girl getting her education, but she knows that she's already started along the path towards a new dawn for the world, and she won't let herself go back now. So all she can do is allow herself a moment of melancholy before the next day starts, and she must be strong again."

Simulation Swarm (Big Thief)

Once again, we must bleed new/Even as the hours shake/Crystal blood like a dream true/A ripple in the wound and wake/You believe, I believe too/That you are the river of light/Who I love, that I cling to In the belly of the empty night

"It kills me inside man, something so deceptively soft just goes so hard. The lyrics are deeply personal and introspective and their poetic nature invites for multiple readings and interpretations on the specificity of what each line means, but the one thing that can't be dismissed is the fact it was written for Lenker's older brother, who was given up to foster care before she was born. It's about the inherent longing, the desperate yearning to know someone you've never met, and missing them all the same in spite of this. (I've also heard speculation that, from the obvious hospital imagery in the chorus and extrapolation from a few other lines, that all this reminiscing takes place post-suicide attempt. And while I don't know if that's true, I can definitely see the merit in that reading). The message, the cadence of each lyric, the soft acoustic backing, it all just whirls together and grips my heart fiercely. The first time I heard it, I listened to it on loop for over 2 hours. I want to cry just thinking about it."

Ok, so this will be my first character tournament, and the theme is : complex characters. Everyone on this site and elsewhere is always praising how complex and multifaceted their favorite fictional characters are, and this is your chance to prove it!

Rules:

Characters can be from almost anything. For example it would even be ok to submit a character interpretation from a fan fiction specifically if that story develops a previously simple character much further, though if you do so you would have to go the extra mile with the propaganda to convince people to vote for something likely obscure!

But no Harry Potter, and will be willing to consider banning other things if people come up with good objections, my general rule is I'm not going to ban things just because the author has bigoted views or the work has problematic themes, unless the author is alive and a prominent enough figure that promoting the work is likely to give a platform for those views.

Elimination rules and the nature of the bracket are yet to be determined based on how many entries I get, I'm still new to this and learning the ropes. But I'm pretty sure I will stick to random seeding.

No character image required, I want to avoid this because we are judging by the character's writing not their design and I don't want to bias the poll towards characters from visual media.

Date of poll closing is tentatively July 1, may change it to later depending on how quickly I get submissions.

Definition of complex character is up to you, but as a general guideline your propaganda should focus on how the character reads like a real human being (or non-human if their alien thinking is intentional), has many facets some which contradict each other in a coherent way rather than being incoherent writing, the depth of their psychological conflicts, etc. Make the voters interested in the character!

If your propaganda includes spoilers for a work of fiction, separate it into a spoiler and non-spoiler section so people interested in one day experiencing those works of fiction can avoid spoilers if they want.

Welcome to the Pope Polls, where you nominate your favorite character (or who ever you'd like) to become pope. Tumblr Sexy Man competition finished off the last one so we should use the same method to make sure the next one can withstand the shock.

This is the submission forum to nominate you character. I'll leave it open for about a week or so before closing it and starting the tournament. I do not know how many rounds we'll do yet, I'll wait to see if we get any nominations.

Anakin Skywalker (Star Wars)

So poorly written for such an insane fandom that the actual child actor, Jake Lloyd, received enough hate mail to make him quit acting.

Bernadetta von Varley (Fire Emblem Three Houses)

(cw child abuse)

She has extreme trauma from being severely abused by her father all through her entire life (things done to her include: being tied to a chair for hours, beating her commoner friend half to death, having her shoved in a sack and shipped off to the Officers Academy after his abuse had, but that point, made her too anxious to leave her room). Because of this trauma, she has extreme anxiety, refusing to leave her room and assuming everyone is out to get her.

On paper, it's a pretty good representation of sevete issues caused by trauma (makes me think of AVPD actually), but in practice? It's used for... weird waifu bait. She's treated as the uwu shy one who you have to protect. Her S support CG literally has her standing below you making an... interesting face. Just the way she's often portrayed feels way too much like they were trying to make her a cute anime archetype rather than a good representation of the results of trauma.

The fandom, for the most part, treats her one of two ways: they either take the waifu bait and make her their uwu cute shy girlfriend, or they say she's annoying and lame. Which is honestly not their fault because the writers just fucked up the portrayal of her character sooo bad.

Cw: slavery, racism, grooming, human trafficking, child soldiers, warfare, war orphans

"This boy. This POOR BOY. Would've submitted him to Yall Hate Teens if I could have, because BOY does the fandom rag on him. But thankfully, he applies to this one as well.

Jusr for some background. Okay so we got this 14 year old kid. Born in a (non-white) country with a lot of emphasis on fighting (which is iffy in its own sense too), and he ends up put in a battle at a young age. During this battle, he's captured by the soldiers of a noble family from the white people continent, and made into their ""servant"" (but let's be real, they aren't paying him.) Eventually, he's rescued by the pope, who is secretly a dragon, and he becomes very indebted to her because of this. He becomes almost fanatical in his respect for her, and that's where the main source of people disliking him in the fandom comes from. They think he's annoying. Or make really gross sexual jokes about him (14) and the 100 bajillion year old (that was hyperbole) dragon pope who arguably groomed him according to certain interpretations.

Anyway, for the things the writers did to him! Well, for one, a few of his supports are pretty bad. One particularly terrible one stands out-- his Hilda support. In which he's doing his job, working hard and stuff and she starts saying all these racist comments about how she didn't know that his people were capable of that. He's (rightfully) really rude to her for their first 2 supports, but eventually they have a slightly more friendly relationship. Their A is her bringing home a letter from her brother, telling her that racism is bad. That was what it took for her to realize that, by the way.

Okay, a little iffy, but guess what? You remember the noble family that he was ENSLAVED BY? YEAH. She is a member of that family. And in their paired ending? They get married. He marries the racist white woman who basically decided that he was one of the good ones. You want to know who he DOESN'T gave a paired ending with? Someone who can share his experience of growing up with a complex relationship with his culture. Or the guy who is curious about him and his life and helps to show him the beauty in the mundane, in a really very sweet support that tragically only goes up to B, wanting to go on a trip with him to see his homeland when everything is over. Or the ither person of color who feels questionably indebted to a powerful white person. Also his Byleth S support is really weird and creepy.

Oh, and he was completely cut out of the spin-off game. He was supposed to be playable in it, but they cut him out. You kill him in Scarlet Blaze (or maybe he doesn't die. I forget. You fight him.) And I think he sometimes shows up in other routes but that's it. He was done so dirty by the writers, the fandom, everyone. It's really fucked up."

I was fine with Cyril but a ton of people online SEVERELY hated my boy for just existing so I grew to love him out of spite. Cyril's backstory had him as a child soldier that was captured by the enemy nation where he became a servant to a noble family. Archbishop Rhea noticed Cyril and took him to Garreg Mach Monastery where he willingly works for her out of gratitude for giving him a home when he was at his worst. Because he's a kid (who's also far more mature than some of the older cast) Cyril was one of the few characters who was critical of the protagonist from the get go and I think this brought in the hate. Like- Cyril WAS a kidnapping victim but he's also mature enough to recognize that his home nation wasn't perfect and only encouraged a bloody culture that kept making orphans. Cyril technically doesn't need to work or stay at Garreg Mach but he does so because he feels that he owes Lady Rhea and the localization of FE16 smooths over a lot of that info. Like- leave my boy aloneee he's just living his own life instead of making the protagonist the center of his universe. He's a child soldier that has yet to really find his place in the world after finally being given the reigns of his own life. Cyril my son. Cyril my boy- you are more than all the hate. Be free my child

Jane Crocker (Homestuck)

Cw: assault

The fandom blames her for the melodrama and problems in Act 6 and shit even though it was ALL the alpha kids who were terrible communicators and having relationship drama. She encouraged Jake to try having a relationship with Dirk even though she liked him too, she wants her friends to be happy even if she isn't. The fandom basically makes her the Stupid Bitch Who Gets In The Way Of Yaoi even though she quite literally made the yaoi happen. She's a victim of Act 6 being messy and written badly. Then we get to the epilogues/sequel. While she's an adult there, it's clear the writers just kinda hate her. She could definitely be a villain but they completely misunderstand her character in order to make her flat and completely in the wrong- even though some of the things she's saying in regards to Troll and Human society intertwining. It isn't looked at with nuance, Jane is just wrong and everyone else has to kill her. Like... hello??? If you're going to make her a villain do it right. Misogyny my nemesis. 

-

"Jane Crocker is initially introduced when, in order to win the game they have been sucked into, the original four kids travel to a universe where their grand/parents have been swapped with them and selected to play it instead.  She is the grandmother, now granddaughter of John Egbert, the first introduced character, and her hobbies include detective fiction, baking, wondering how to tell one of her best friends that she's in love with him, and avoiding frequent attempts on her life.

To explain that last one, she is the heiress to the Betty Crocker company and national monopoly, aka. Crockercorp, and has big plans about the good she can do when she finally takes power.  As she finds out in the game, the company is a front ruled by the Condesce, an alien queen from another universe who was gathering power on Earth so that she could leap into the game and thus take over the world it would create.  And she's happy to let Jane rule with her, so long as she puts on this computer and OBEYs.

After she is mind-controlled by the Condesce, Jane has little role in the rest of the story -- she is put to sleep and cured offscreen, and only shows up as a bit player in the final fight with no dialogue whatsoever to resolve her arc.  However, she does have one scene with her crush, Jake, while she is not herself that colours a lot of the audience reaction to her.  

Some context: During the game, she had chickened out during her confession to Jake, and he then proceeded to use her for relationship advice when their other friend, Dirk, succeeded in becoming his boyfriend.  After one of these chats where Jake reveals he forgot her birthday, she blows up at him for using her, which is the last normal conversation they have in the comic.

By the time she is being controlled, Jake is being held prisoner, and so with her inhibitions removed and priorities redirected towards Crockercorp, she tells him all about the future he'll have as her consort and repeatedly harasses and threatens him.  Because there is never any closure for this moment as both characters are shoved to the background, this is the fandom's last impression of Jane, which is used as evidence of her true nature whenever anyone needs to justify their hate for or demonization of her.

Although Jane has plenty of casual conversations with her friends early on that demonstrate her true character -- she is supportive of her friends to a fault, and is initially given the role of team leader but ultimately is too passive to fill it, one of the many reasons for her friends' frayed unity.  However, absolutely none of her traits and decisions are important to the plot, and her arc is dropped with her potential left unfulfilled, leaving it easy for her to be overshadowed by a single dramatic moment she had while explicitly out of character.

And that should be the end of the story, but it gets worse.  In 2019, Hussie released the Homestuck Epilogues, an explicitly ""dubiously canonical"" prose novel with two routes that many fans found so damaging and distasteful that they left the fandom entirely.  Between the book itself and the ensuing flame wars, the fandom was reduced to merely a fraction of its size, and most of the people now remaining belong to the camp that liked the Epilogues, or at least saw it as part of canon.

In both routes of the Epilogue, Jane, now an adult, becomes the authoritarian president of Earth C and coerces Jake into an abusive relationship.  This is worse in the Candy Route, where she is described as a fascist, declares a policy of genocide against trolls, regularly drugs Jake to have sex with him, and uses their kid to blackmail him into staying with her.  All of this ultimately causes her to be cast as a central antagonist in the HS team's ongoing comic ""Homestuck^2"" that continues off of the Epilogues.

All of this follows from an extrapolation of her behaviour while mind-controlled, which is somehow still applicable to her character once she is back to normal.   Now, the popular excuse for her mischaracterization is the backbone of current official Homestuck content.  And because her being an antagonist is key to the story, most fans of the sequel (which is now the majority of online Homestuck fans) have to buy into the justification for her actions in order to properly suspend disbelief and keep reading.  Thus, it is nigh impossible to find anyone who will engage with the canon -- and I mean /actually/ canon, not postcanon -- version of Jane.

Addendum: Although canon Jane is a teenager, I have to discuss how her adult postcanon self affects her perception and basically erases the original character.  Nonetheless, since postcanon Jane can hardly be called the same character, I don't think this affects Jane's eligibility."

Elizabeth Afton (Five Nights at Freddy's)

Cw: child death, child neglect, suicide and sa mention

"Okay. So. This poor child was apparently neglected, left to die, potentially took her own life (depends upon the theory you subscribe to) all because she wanted to feel like her father cared about her for once in her life. And the fanbase saw this and said ""she is a whiny, spoiled brat who deserved to die, and also would deserve to be a victim of sexual abuse."" 

She is 7-10 years old. 

I say apparently because FNaF is really vague. All of this should be taken with a small grain of salt, because Elizabeth/Circus Baby is a purposefully-cryptic character. But from my (very intense) deductions, this is her story. 

Elizabeth was likely neglected and ignored by her father, who prioritized his animatronics over her well-being. (souce FNaF SL pre-night voicelines.) 

Her father, William Afton, cared about her in theory, but not in practice, and while he ignored her to a harmful degree, he also modeled an animatronic after her: Circus Baby. However, while the general fanbase treats this as a sign that he sees her as the favorite, it's actually the opposite. He built an animatronic designed to *harvest other people's souls* in his daughter's image, as a replacement for her. 

Over and over, she asks for his attention, wondering if she can spend any time with him or see what he's been making. He never replies, and she is only treated with silence. He knows this animatronic has the potential to kill her, but what does he do to keep it from hurting her? Not let her see it. That's it. Really some 10/10 parenting (read: neglect.) 

Usually, Elizabeth is naturally curious of Circus Baby, sneaks in to see her, and is murdered by the machine. Her father's only reaction is to hide Baby, so nobody has to know what happened. However, due to the vague nature of FNaF lore, it is also possible that Elizabeth knew Baby was capable of harming her, and purposefully sought her out in an attempt to end her own life. (NOTE: like most things, this is not 100% confirmed. If you choose not to believe this is canon, feel free to skip over to the next piece of propaganda.) 

The Lizzie/Baby combination created by her demise is so desperate for any attention or love that the tries to escape the facility where she's being held in the only way she knows how to do: following in her father's footsteps and taking a life. However, it's not until the last minute that she realizes she's murdered her brother. She manages to escape, via crawling into his body (long story) but has to separate herself from his body and literally *crawl into the sewers* as a mass of broken robot parts and wires. Still, she carries on, and in one last attempt to win her father's love, she reassembles herself out of literal garbage and old animatronic-related junk. She tries, one final time, to reach her father, but it's too late. By now, he's been dead for years, transformed into Scraptrap, which, if you didn't know, is an ugly, moldy fursuit shell, barely reminiscent of what it used to be. She sticks around for one last week, as an antagonist alongside the rotten remains of her surviving(?) family, all because she wanted to be loved. All because she wanted the basic respect she deserved. All because she was a sad little girl who wanted her father to care if she lived or died. 

And what reward does the get for this?

She's taunted by Henry, her father's business partner, trapped in a burning building, melted to death in a fire, and sent to the FNaF equivalent of Hell. 

She's not supposed to be a good guy, and she's definitely not a hero, but Elizabeth might've been seven years old when she died. And if you look at a lonely little girl who just wants to be treated like a person, who is forced to become a monster if she wants to survive, and you say ""she deserves to be abused,"" y'all just hate kids. "

-

She is literally a baby. So what if she was forced via circumstance to kill that guy. Maybe if her dad didn't abandon her she would've turned out better. The fandom acts like she's the antichrist but there are other characters who get off scott free for doing waaaaay worse.

submit a specific character only once. you can submit more than one different character though

propaganda is encouraged, but i don't really like anti-propaganda (i.e. saying why an opposing character Shouldn't advance instead of just hyping your choice. Only because some people can get really heated about it and I'd rather keep things chill)

as always, tumblr polls are just for fun. Never take 'em too seriously!

the bracket size will be decided once I see our final submission count. Submissions open until April 24th

uhhh i can't think of anything else rn but if i do later i'll come back and edit 👍 if you have a specific question, send an ask my way and i'll see if i can answer it.

Propaganda below the cut

-

Gamzee Makara (Homestuck)

The author basically wrote him to be a racist stereotype and has him possessed and brainwashed for 99% of the story, in the 1% he isn't he's high on drugs. And the fandom hates him despite the tragedy in his story. Because he killed a couple characters (MANY of the characters kill others out of their own free will, he was possessed and brainwashed when he killed people) some people think he's naturally dangerous and needs to be on drugs forever or just die. He was having withdrawal symptoms and was possessed by the story's main villain. He was thirteen at the beginning of the story. He's a teenager. And yet the fandom treats him like shit and wants him to die

Bernadetta von Varley (Fire Emblem Three Houses)

She has extreme trauma from being severely abused by her father all through her entire life (things done to her include: being tied to a chair for hours, beating her commoner friend half to death, having her shoved in a sack and shipped off to the Officers Academy after his abuse had, but that point, made her too anxious to leave her room). Because of this trauma, she has extreme anxiety, refusing to leave her room and assuming everyone is out to get her.

On paper, it's a pretty good representation of sevete issues caused by trauma (makes me think of AVPD actually), but in practice? It's used for... weird waifu bait. She's treated as the uwu shy one who you have to protect. Her S support CG literally has her standing below you making an... interesting face. Just the way she's often portrayed feels way too much like they were trying to make her a cute anime archetype rather than a good representation of the results of trauma.

The fandom, for the most part, treats her one of two ways: they either take the waifu bait and make her their uwu cute shy girlfriend, or they say she's annoying and lame. Which is honestly not their fault because the writers just fucked up the portrayal of her character sooo bad.

Propaganda:

Titania -

"Good lord just look at her. My gay friend introduced her to me and told me he'd turn straight for her and I silently agreed (but like the other way around). Save me."

Yellow -

"I always had an affinity as a kid for characters that were girls but for whatever reason dressed as and acted in society as a boy. I bought the PokeSpe volume with her on the cover cause I liked the design, knowing nothing about the series or that it even was one and I was jumping in partway through. When I first saw Yellow I didn't realise she was a girl and was so genuinely shellshocked when it was revealed that she was one and I was like. Damn. She just like me for real. Anyway I'm no longer a girl thanks Yellow."
