Battle Cry | comment |
It's time for the hero to go to battle, to take action, to strive. Surely such a moment is worthy of an exclamation. If the hero (and it's almost always a hero) is up to it, he might produce a one-off Pre-Asskicking One-Liner suitable for the occasion. It's not rare, though, to instead utter an appropriate catchphrase: the hero's trademarked Battle Cry. A Battle Cry is usually written in title caps, and ends with an exclamation point or three. This is more frequently a convention of comics, animation and video games than of live action, for some reason. They have also appeared historically in Real Life. Helps with Friend or Foe? situations. A common variation is calling out "Geronimo!" while leaping from a great height (usually when parachuting out of a plane). This is derived from the 1939 film Geronimo. Compare Rousing Speech. Screaming Warrior is sometimes an instance of this trope. Might also manifest as the dreaded Funny Bruce Lee Noises. Contrast In the Name of the Moon, which is a longer speech and happens before the fight really starts. The video game with the same name can be found here. |

The Silmarillion: At the end of the Battle of Unnumbered Tears: the Elves and their human allies have finally marched against Morgoth, they are losing and will never recover from this defeat. Húrin, a human warrior, is alone and about to be captured by trolls, but he is still fighting and all the while he keeps shouting: "Aurë entuluva !" — "Day shall come again !" — since he's fighting to allow the army of Gondolin to withdraw. This serves as an Ironic Echo of the Elves' battlecry at the opening of the battle: Utulie'n aurë! ("The day has come!)" | |

Redwall: Various groups of critters over the course of the series have had their own battle cries. "Redwaaaaaaaaaall!" for residents of the Abbey. "Mossfloweeeeeeeer!" was common prior to the construction of the Abbey, and afterwards for residents of the area not associate with Redwall. Also "Logalogalogalogaloga...!", the battle cry of the Guosim shrew tribes. The hares of the Long Patrol and the Badger Lords of Salamandastron have their traditional battle cry, "Eulaliaaaaaaaaaa!" Vermin often use the name of their leader. |

Whose Line Is It Anyway? occasionally mocks these during skits involving gladiators, Vikings, or other warriors by giving them the the most unintimidating battle cries ever. The most ridiculous one was during a game of "Whose Line" (where the they insert random lines given by the audience into the scene), when Colin was supposed to be a gladiator. Another runner-up was their take on the Alamo. They actually did "World's Worst Battle Cry" once. |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003) rarely (ironically) used "Cowabunga", but unironically started using "It's Ninja Time!" in the last two seasons. They picked up "Turtle Power" from their '87 counterparts in the finale movie. Casey Jones specifically used "Goongala!" throughout, which was later explained as being a butchered pronounciation of "Gorogoro-Sama" (roughly Lord of Thunder) Mikey tried to teach him when they were kids. | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) introduced "Booyakasha!" for the turtles, Mikey especially. They also learned "Cowabunga" from Mondo Gecko, and Casey retained "Goongala". | |

Discussed briefly by Tyrion in his Rousing Speech during the defence of King's Landing. He specifically declares that he is not going to shout the name of the king or his own city, and instead reminds his troops that King's Landing is their city, and that is his warcry when he leads the charge. Tyrion's nickname of "Halfman" becomes the Battle Cry of the city's defenders. | |

The Dresden Files: In the book Summer Knight, Harry has "I don't believe in faeries!" before charging into battle between the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Who are, of course, faeries. (In Peter Pan, it's claimed that whenever someone says "I don't believe in fairies!" it causes a fairy to drop dead — worth a try, in the circumstances.) In the same battle Harry recruits several faeries (of the several inch tall variety) by buying them pizza. Their battle cry? "For the pizza lord!" In Ghost Story, Harry gets himself an army of ghosts. His battle cry for them? "BOO!" Michael Carpenter typically shouts Latin phrases when he wields his holy blade Amoracchius. His most common one is "Lava quod est sordium! In nomine Dei, sana quod est saucium!"Latin translationCleanse that which is unclean! In the name of God, heal that which is wounded! Notably, it is implied that this is not so much Michael's battle cry, as the battle cry of the angels that back him up. Mortician Waldo Butters uses "Polka will never die!" as his battle cry. |

Power Rangers: Power Rangers S.P.D. both uses and parodies this at the same time in episode 11, when the Rangers scream "BATTLE CRY!" as they maneuver towards the enemy in their Megazord. Many teams and individuals have these, but it probably falls under the "In the Name of the Moon" category, as they're more than a word or two and involve signature poses. |

Discworld: Discworld's Dwarfs yell "Today is a good day for someone else to die!" (cf. Star Trek, obviously.) Sourcery: Nijel the Destroyer has "Erm, excuse me..." The Nac Mac Feegle like their battle cries. But because they're all stubborn individualists (despite having a hive structure), when a swarm of Feegles attack you, every one of them will be shouting something different. The only battle cry they ALL share is "WE WILLNAE BE FOOLED AGAIN!" "Remember Koom Valley" is another one, used by both Dwarves and Trolls. This may fall into disuse after the events of Thud! Commander Vimes's terrifying war cry as he enters a berserker rage, also found in Thud!: "THAT IS NOT MY COW!!!!" |

The /charge emote will give you a different battle cry based on your character's race, and each race has at least two. Lok'tar Ogar translates to "Victory or Death".

Skyrim: Thanks to the Player Character being a legendary Dragonborn, you can now use the aforementioned Thu'um. Both sides of the Civil War conflict get in on this action. Imperial soldiers return with cries like "For the Empire!" and "For the Legion!" Stormcloaks, meanwhile, shout things like "Skyrim is for the Nords!" |

A few examples in Persona 3 alone: The main character yells the name of whichever Persona he's summoning when he gets a critical. When equipped with a bow, he will also yell "Persona!" or "Come forth!". Others have their own battle cries, such as Aegis's "I need your HELP!" and Junpei's "Mano a mano. Let's do it!". The most traditional Battle Cries come when you do an All-Out Attack, however. Mitsuru's "You'll fall by MY hand!!" is the best example here. | |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: An episode where Jadzia Dax was called upon to help three elderly Klingon warriors she'd known back in her previous host avenge the murder of their firstborn sons, one of whom was then-Curzon Dax's godson also amended the aforementioned battle cry with, "... but a better day to live," after Jadzia persuaded the three old boys that this might be The Last Dance, but it didn't have to be a Suicide Mission because they were going to fight smart. "VICTORY IS LIFE!" A shortened form of the Badass Creed of the Jem'Hadar, a race literally bred for war by the Dominion and who go into battle considering themselves symbolically dead unless they win. Parodied by Chief O'Brien the first time it appears, in "To the Death". "I am Chief Miles O'Brien. I'm very much alive and I plan to stay that way!" Parodied in Sev Trek (see other suggested punchlines here). "FOR CARDASSIA!!!" Said by the Cardassian rebels assaulting the capitol building during the final battle. |

The same author's The Price of Flight follows the City Watch Air Police into battle as a combat air force. During the war with invading Elves note Canonically, in The Shepherd's Crown half a dozen Witches on combat brooms end up realising the main Elven invasion force is massing in front of them. Hundreds of airborne Elves. A Fourecksian witch laconically says "It was nice knowing you bunch of bastards", and the flight commander leads her aviators into action with "It's up to you if you want to follow me". (Previously against lesser odds, this witch has shouted battle cries like "On your feet! Or on your knees!") | |

Warhammer Fantasy Battle: Empire units tend to use "SIGMAR!" or "HELDENHAMMER!" in honor of the Empire's first Emperor and prime deity. Another popular one runs "We are Sigmar's heirs! They are Sigmar's foes!" This pisses off Ulric-worshippers, who consider their god to be the Empire's true god of war, to no end. Bretonnians, who worship the Lady of the Lake, go into battle with cries of "For the Lady!" Suliman le Saracen's battlecry is so terrifying that it shocks his foes, allowing him to always strike first despite wielding a two-handed weapon. Kislevites typically use "For the Motherland!" and "For Ursun!", their chief god. For the Dwarfs, it's "KHAZUKAN KHAZAKIT-HA!", or "Beware, the Dwarfs are on the warpath!" Lizardmen roar wordlessly. Orcs use the same warcry, with the same official spelling (it's always spelled WAAAGH!, though the alternate capitalization Waaagh! can be used when referring to an Ork army instead of the battle cry itself). Khorne worshippers use the same as in 40k. The Regiments of Renown, unique mercenary units, have a warcry each. The Alcatani Fellowship have a simple shout of "Yes!" Braganza's Biesegers, originally from Miragliano, shout "Borgio!", the name of their original commander and Prince. Leopold's Leopard Company have "For the Leopard!" after their heraldic animal. Al Muktar's Desert Dogs shout their leader's name. Pirazzo's Lost Legion have "Death or riches!" Vespero's Vendetta, a unit of assassin-duelists, have "Prepare to die!" Voland's Venators charge to the cry of "Last one to die's a sissy!" The Bearmen of Urslo, a band of Norscan werebears, have a wordless growling roar. Long Drong's Pirate Slayers have "Fifteen Dwarfs and a dead Dwarf's chest, yo ho ho and a flagon of ale!" Lumpin Kroop's Fighting Cocks, a band of halfling mercenaries from the Moot, chant "Hurray! Hurray! The Moot! The Moot!" This started when Kroop, terrified during his first battle, yelled "Run away! Run away! To the Moot! To the Moot!", but the others misheard him and thought that he was yelling a patriotic rallying cry. |

The Lord of the Rings has a lot of battle-crying. Frodo yells "The Shire!" when he stabs the cave troll's foot in Moria. Éomer and Aragorn say "Gúthwinë for the Mark!" and "Andúril for the Dúnedain!" when they draw swords together at the Battle of Helm's Deep. The Rohirrim have a more blood-chilling battlecry later, at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. One word: DEATH! Gimli shouts, "Baruk Khazâd! Khazâd ai-mênu!" during the Battle of Helm's Deep. Professor Tolkien helpfully adds a translation of this traditional dwarvish battle-cry: "Axes of the Dwarves! The Dwarves are upon you!", which is a helpful warning that a lot of hairy kneecappers are about to run up one side of you and down the other. Aragorn also often cries out the name of his ancestor Elendil. Even the hobbits of the Shire get one: the Horn-call of Buckland. |

Michael Carpenter typically shouts Latin phrases when he wields his holy blade Amoracchius. His most common one is "Lava quod est sordium! In nomine Dei, sana quod est saucium!"Latin translationCleanse that which is unclean! In the name of God, heal that which is wounded! Notably, it is implied that this is not so much Michael's battle cry, as the battle cry of the angels that back him up. | |

In all the Persona games, the characters will usually yell something whenever they make a move in battle. A few examples in Persona 3 alone: The main character yells the name of whichever Persona he's summoning when he gets a critical. When equipped with a bow, he will also yell "Persona!" or "Come forth!". Others have their own battle cries, such as Aegis's "I need your HELP!" and Junpei's "Mano a mano. Let's do it!". The most traditional Battle Cries come when you do an All-Out Attack, however. Mitsuru's "You'll fall by MY hand!!" is the best example here. |

Mat Cauthon from The Wheel of Time seems to be fond of these. A notable example is "Carai an Caldazar! Carai an Ellisande! Al Ellisande!" ("For the honor of the Red Eagle! For the Honor of the Rose of the Sun! The Rose of the Sun!") from the first book. Subverted and made more realistic later on, when his battle cry is "Blood and bloody ashes!" When fighting the Gholam in Towers of Midnight: "Al dival, al kiserai, al mashi!" (For light, glory and love!) "Carai an manshimaya Tylin. Carai an manshimaya Nalsean. Carai an manshimaya ayend'an!"

The units and factions of the Command & Conquer series have various battle cries. For example: Allied GIs in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 use the US Army's "Hoo-ah!" while Navy SEAL's utter the (inaccurate) cry, "Hoo-rah!" The Badass Creeds of the Brotherhood of Nod — "Kane lives!", "Peace through power!", and "One vision, one purpose!" — are often uttered as battle cries (the foremost is especially popular). |

The Elder Scrolls: Throughout the series, the Nords get one of these as a racial ability. It temporarily causes weaker opponents to flee battle, useful if you find yourself outnumbered. Additionally, the Nords were the first (mortal) race in Tamriel to master the Thu'um, the language of the Dragons, which takes this trope to its logical conclusion by having the battle cry be capable of directly inflicting harm to opponents. Every NPC opponent in Morrowind has a battle cry they'll shout before attacking. ("Now you die!," "You filthy swit!", etc.) Oblivion: There are also a few gloriously hammy battle cries specific to members of the Mythic Dawn, such as "Lord Dagon will welcome your soul in Oblivion!" and "Be glad you will not live to see the day Dagon walks the earth!" Imperial troops frequently shout "For the Emperor!" as they charge. The Blades add "For the Blades!" Skyrim: Thanks to the Player Character being a legendary Dragonborn, you can now use the aforementioned Thu'um. Both sides of the Civil War conflict get in on this action. Imperial soldiers return with cries like "For the Empire!" and "For the Legion!" Stormcloaks, meanwhile, shout things like "Skyrim is for the Nords!" |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Most of the battle-cries are the name of either their family or their city. This gets Arya in trouble at one point when she's supposed to be in disguise, then shouts the name of her home castle, "Winterfell!" during a battle. Fortunately, her friend Gendry manages to convince everyone that they misheard, and that her battle cry is actually, "Go to Hell!" Discussed briefly by Tyrion in his Rousing Speech during the defence of King's Landing. He specifically declares that he is not going to shout the name of the king or his own city, and instead reminds his troops that King's Landing is their city, and that is his warcry when he leads the charge. Tyrion's nickname of "Halfman" becomes the Battle Cry of the city's defenders. The untrained and cowardly baker's boy known as Hot Pie shouts his own name when he is forced into combat, much to Arya's amusement. |

40K also includes a number of memorable subversions: for example, in His Last Command, the Tanith 1st have been merged with the 81st Belladon to become the 81/1st (recon). Their commander muses on the difficulty of merging all the regimental traditions, and notes that a Battle Cry of "Fury of Belladon, for Tanith, for the Emperor, and, by the way, Remember Vervunhive!" gets full marks for effort, but'll leave you dead in a slit trench before you can finish saying it and get on with the fight... | |

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) ran with this, famously introducing "Cowabunga!" and "Turtle Power!" Some lesser used cries included "Turtles Fight With Honor!" and "Go Green Machine!" Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003) rarely (ironically) used "Cowabunga", but unironically started using "It's Ninja Time!" in the last two seasons. They picked up "Turtle Power" from their '87 counterparts in the finale movie. Casey Jones specifically used "Goongala!" throughout, which was later explained as being a butchered pronounciation of "Gorogoro-Sama" (roughly Lord of Thunder) Mikey tried to teach him when they were kids. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) introduced "Booyakasha!" for the turtles, Mikey especially. They also learned "Cowabunga" from Mondo Gecko, and Casey retained "Goongala". Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles added "Hot Soup!" mostly for Raph and Splinter, and "April O'Neil!" shouting her own name as a battle cry. |

Avengers: Endgame After Captain America said those famous words (AVENGERS, assemble!.). Thor, Black Panther and the rest of them yelled a battle cry signaling the start of the battle of the fate of the universe. The Wakandans also have "YIBAMBE!" (Xhosa for HOLD THE LINE!)

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 seldom generate character's line before using magic and skills. While some of them being total stupid, some are really awesome.

Tolkien's Legendarium: The Lord of the Rings has a lot of battle-crying. Frodo yells "The Shire!" when he stabs the cave troll's foot in Moria. Éomer and Aragorn say "Gúthwinë for the Mark!" and "Andúril for the Dúnedain!" when they draw swords together at the Battle of Helm's Deep. The Rohirrim have a more blood-chilling battlecry later, at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields. One word: DEATH! Gimli shouts, "Baruk Khazâd! Khazâd ai-mênu!" during the Battle of Helm's Deep. Professor Tolkien helpfully adds a translation of this traditional dwarvish battle-cry: "Axes of the Dwarves! The Dwarves are upon you!", which is a helpful warning that a lot of hairy kneecappers are about to run up one side of you and down the other. Aragorn also often cries out the name of his ancestor Elendil. Even the hobbits of the Shire get one: the Horn-call of Buckland. The Silmarillion: At the end of the Battle of Unnumbered Tears: the Elves and their human allies have finally marched against Morgoth, they are losing and will never recover from this defeat. Húrin, a human warrior, is alone and about to be captured by trolls, but he is still fighting and all the while he keeps shouting: "Aurë entuluva !" — "Day shall come again !" — since he's fighting to allow the army of Gondolin to withdraw. This serves as an Ironic Echo of the Elves' battlecry at the opening of the battle: Utulie'n aurë! ("The day has come!)" |

Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition has a couple of Bard spells using this principle: Casting a war cry before charging boosts the bard's attack and may scare the target if wounded. The battlecry spell improves bardic music and bolsters the resolve of allies; it may even snap them out of fear or charm effects. |

Warhammer 40,000: Every Space Marine chapter and legion has their own battlecry, though virtually every Imperium force may use "For the Emperor!" and "The Emperor protects!". Space Marines have their own: for the Dark Angels, it's "Repent, for tomorrow you die!"; for the Space Wolves, it's either "For the Russ and the Allfather!"; for the Lamenters, it's "For those we cherish, we die in glory!" and they mean it. The Orks have the ever-recognizable "WAAAAGGGGH!" and "'ERE WE GOOOO!" The Eldar use "For the Craftworld!" in Dawn of War, but background material also includes "KHAINE!" and a wordless scream from the Howling Banshees. Khorne worshippers have "Blood for the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Throne!" as a catchphrase. Which characters in the Ciaphas Cain novels very much enjoy mocking them for. See the Quotes tab. There's also a joke warcry for Slaaneshi cultists: "Porn for the Porn God! Smut for the Smut Throne!" 40K also includes a number of memorable subversions: for example, in His Last Command, the Tanith 1st have been merged with the 81st Belladon to become the 81/1st (recon). Their commander muses on the difficulty of merging all the regimental traditions, and notes that a Battle Cry of "Fury of Belladon, for Tanith, for the Emperor, and, by the way, Remember Vervunhive!" gets full marks for effort, but'll leave you dead in a slit trench before you can finish saying it and get on with the fight... This is so ubiquitous that the Tyranids and Necrons are noted as being especially creepy for not using them. Furthermore, the Legion of the Damned are noted for fighting in "disturbing silence". The various Chaos Legions each have their own, ranging from the Iron Warriors' monotone chant of "Iron Within, Iron Without" to the Night Lords' shrieking "We have come for you!" The Alpha Legion even adopt their enemy's battle cries to try and throw them off, and it often works.note Loyalist Astartes take the Alpha Legion's cries of "For the Emperor!" as mocking imitation, but considering the Alpha Legion's ambiguous loyalties... The Dark Eldar, when they use war cries rather than stealth, use "No Death!" However, this is quite terrifying; it doesn't mean they won't kill you. They won't let you die. |

Due to them being animals, the phrase is not used in Beast Wars — until Optimus Primal gets Optimus Prime's spark (read: soul) in his body, where he orders the Maximals to "Transform and roll out" as a Shout-Out. In Beast Wars, the transformation code phrases were often used interchangeably with battle cries. Inferno's frenzied shouts of "For the ROYALTY!" and "For the glory of the colony!" fill this purpose. | |

Pokémon: The Series: "[Pokémon name] I CHOOSE YOU!" or "GO [Pokémon name]!" kind of serves as a battle cry many times. So does Team Rocket's motto, which ends with "Surrender now or prepare to fight!" Pyramid King Brandon always says "[Pokémon], I need your assistance!" as a battle cry. Ash's Sinnoh region rival, Paul, has the battle cry "[Pokémon], Stand by for battle!" When Dawn send out her Pokémon for a contest, her cry is "[Pokémon], Spotlight!" |

"Do-ro'ik vong pratte!" (translation: "And woe to our enemies!") is the battle cry of the warrior caste, and the most commonly heard. The priest and shaper castes also have them, though translations aren't provided. The intendent (bureaucratic) caste doesn't have one, though Nom Anor, himself an intendent, mocks what he thinks theirs might be: |

Fantastic Four: Ben Grimm: "It's Clobberin' Time!" Mark Waid once said that the Avengers' battle cry is "Avengers Assemble", and the Fantastic Four's is "Johnny, wait, don't!" Johnny Storm also has "Flame on!", which he says whenever he bursts into flames to attack an enemy. He doesn't have to say it (as evidenced by all the casual setting-himself-on-fire he does when not fighting), but he almost always does. On the other hand, Johnny usually use the "Flame on!" phrase when he is flaming on his entire body as oppose to just lighting up a hand or finger. In the Ultimate universe, Johnny did have to say "Flame on!" whenever he wanted to use his powers, before he became more competent with his powers. Conversely, he also originally had to say "Flame off!" when he wanted to return to normal. |

In Kingdom of Loathing, if you have access to the Distant Past where you take control of Krakrox the Barbarian, you have access to his Mighty Shout ability, wherein his battle cry gives a temporary boost to your muscle and moxie. The description of the boost explains that Krakrox's battle cry was just "Battle cry!", as he discovered it doesn't really matter what you shout, so long as it's extra loud and has a vowel sound at the end. | |

Transformers: "Autobots! Transform and roll out!" Due to them being animals, the phrase is not used in Beast Wars — until Optimus Primal gets Optimus Prime's spark (read: soul) in his body, where he orders the Maximals to "Transform and roll out" as a Shout-Out. In Beast Wars, the transformation code phrases were often used interchangeably with battle cries. Inferno's frenzied shouts of "For the ROYALTY!" and "For the glory of the colony!" fill this purpose. Co-opted by Megatron in Transformers: Animated with the more aerial-oriented "Decepticons! Transform and rise up!" Also fitting considering their evil-rebel nature in the Animated universe. Megatron has also been known to use the more succinct "Decepticons! ATTACK!" ALL HAIL MEGATRON! Spoofed in Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015), with Bumblebee’s attempts at a rallying cry every episode of the first season. Key word, “attemptsâ€�. He finally gets one in the season finale: "Let's rev up and roll out!" |

Captain America: "Avengers Assemble!" The phrase can and is said by any Avenger, but Cap seems to say it the most. Sometimes, for added pathos, "Avengers" is drawn out or has its own exclamation point, and back in the '80s the team sometimes used "Avengers! Attack!" Lampshaded in JLA/Avengers during the final battle, where they are technically fighting under the Avengers name (since Captain America is in charge). Everyone screams "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!", and then the Wasp adds in for the benefit of their friends from The DCU: "And Justice Leaguers, uh— LAMBASTE!" Inverted in the Civil War arc series, in which the Registration detractors under Captain America shout "AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!" and Bishop replies "What's he talking about? I thought our side was the Avengers?" |
