  • Always Gets His Man
rdfs:comment
  • This is a cop's cop. He is incorruptible, competent, and feared by evildoers. If he is not Da Chief it is likely because either he is too young, or his path is blocked by Obstructive Bureaucrats who fear him for obvious reasons. Very often, he's a Determinator who is Lawful Good-- with a strong accent on lawful. Generally a fair cop, though if the protagonist is operating outside the law, he'll pursue him as relentlessly as anyone else. You very much do not want to do something to make him follow you. Examples of Always Gets His Man include:

  • This is a cop's cop. He is incorruptible, competent, and feared by evildoers. If he is not Da Chief it is likely because either he is too young, or his path is blocked by Obstructive Bureaucrats who fear him for obvious reasons. He is often a By-The-Book Cop, though some versions have a bit of Cowboy Cop in them. If he is an Inspector Javert, he will be portrayed sympathetically as a Worthy Opponent and he is only on the opposite side by an unfortunate error in the system or else because the protagonist is a Villain Protagonist. Often, because Elites Are More Glamorous, this kind of Cop belongs to a famous law enforcement organization: effectively the constabulary equivalent of a Badass Army. Very often, he's a Determinator who is Lawful Good-- with a strong accent on lawful. Generally a fair cop, though if the protagonist is operating outside the law, he'll pursue him as relentlessly as anyone else. You very much do not want to do something to make him follow you.
