Ded Parents

''"I'm mad at the world cuz muh parentz died." Pssh, get the hell outta here, kid.''

Someone's one and only reason for doing anything might be because their parents are no more. In an adventurous story, this often happens to children whose parents were heroes. When those parents die, it's up to the child to Continue The Legacy and fight to be powerful and skilled like their parents. What makes this UnTrash even more painful for the child is if the Villain or one of their henchmen kills their parents, making the child hate the Villain and come up with a Revenge Plot.

As one of the most widely-played UnTrashes in fiction history ever, Ded Parents is an UnTrash audiences would be rushing to call clichéd. And despite it being a very sensible reason to want revenge in reality, this is a fictional story where bad motives cause the story to suffer in uniqueness and quality.

Ded Parents Plays
Basic: Someone is upset that their parents got killed by the Villain or something else and acts in response to this loss. They also grow a hatred for the murderer for a reason other than they killed their mom and dad.

Reinforced: This is the only reason why the child of this UnTrash wants revenge. Oddly enough, this is more like Basic and Basic is Downplayed.

Downplayed: Along with murder the child's parents, the murderer did something else that they detest them for and acts against them more because of this reason than Ded Parents.

Negated: Plot Wires cause the child to initially go out for the murderer, then forget all about that and fights for a different reason. Alternatively, the child could not love their parents and would not want revenge.

Inverted: --

Justified: The Traitor of any type is the murderer.

Gleeful: -- (How could this be Gleeful?)

Dismal: The child doesn't fight the murderer. Instead, they fall into depression and commit suicide to join their parents in the afterlife (even though they might be in Heaven and they go to Hot Evil Loser Land for the whole suicide thing).

Zip: --
