Humans Are Special	comment	Much Speculative Fiction presents a galaxy filled with many aliens that are far more advanced than Puny Earthlings. This is not particularly improbable; after all, assuming they're not the very first race in the universe to make the leap, any race that just got space travel recently — which is usually the timeframe Speculative Fiction focuses on, since it's easier for us to relate to — is going to initially be the "new kids" on the galactic scene, encountering tons of other races that have had far longer to get their things together. Even if other aliens aren't super-advanced, if you have lots of different spacefaring races in your setting, you still end up with humanity just being one non-notable race among thousands, but the problem is, these things are actually being written by humans, for humans, and that usually means people want to see humans in an important, overarching role. To accomplish this, it is made clear that there is something special, something unique about the human character. It could be that humans are inherently noble, kind and idealistic, or that we never ever give up no matter how bad things get, or we are extremely curious and love adventure or simply that our very emotions are our strength. Whatever the case may be, humans are usually given some Western, humanistic value that somehow allows us to transcend our weaknesses and earn the admiration and/or fear of other, more advanced civilizations. Apparently everyone else is stuck in a rut, possibly as a result of being a Planet of Hats. This might become embarrassing to explain if extraterrestrials are actually receiving our media transmissions. Though, to be fair, it's highly likely that any other intelligent species that evolved through natural selection would also instinctively see themselves as being the best, and many of their science fiction works (or equivalent) would have the same trope for their species. In extreme cases, fantasy writers have depicted humans as (morally) superior to the gods. This is easily accomplished by having the gods acting like two-year-olds, and badly brought up two-year-olds at that. If humans know they are special, they will make it clear to the aliens in a Patrick Stewart Speech. Alternately, it might be the aliens themselves who tell humanity that they have the potential to achieve greatness beyond imagination. May be used as a justification for Earth Is the Center of the Universe and What Other Galaxies?. Frequently, it's because aliens suffer Creative Sterility. As humans as a whole are not renowned for modesty, this trope of course has much to do with the fact that Most Writers Are Human. It can also lead to a desire to be human for non-humans. This trope lies somewhere in the middle of the continuum between Humans Are Warriors and Humans Are Diplomats. Humans are Leaders, Humanity Is Insane, and Humans Advance Swiftly are specific variants. Compare Humans Are Good, Humanity Is Infectious and Intrigued by Humanity. Contrast with Humans Are Insects, Humans Are the Real Monsters, Humans Are Morons, Humans Are Flawed, Humans Need Aliens, Humans Are Bastards and Humans Are Cthulhu. Compare and contrast Humanity Is Superior and Humanity Is Advanced. See also Humanity on Trial and What Measure Is a Non-Human?. For humans being the preferred prey of space aliens and supernatural beasties see To Serve Man, while for aliens enjoying food made by humans see Aliens Love Human Food.

Like everything else in the show, this is deconstructed. Kyubey's race exploits them for the energy they produce when they become witches, and while humanity generally benefits, he doesn't really care if one of these witches ends up annihilating Earth's biosphere (which has actually happened prior to Homura resetting the timeline).

A group of aliens move to invade the world of 'Australia', and only one does the research. He finds out that the planet has hosted several people who can harness the Phoenix Force, have fought off Galactus, beaten back the Skrulls, once hosted the Silver Surfer, etc. He ran to alert his superiors. They shot him for interrupting, claimed that whatever he said couldn't have been that important, and proceeded to have their invasion fleet wiped out by Colossus, Longshot, a drunken Havok, and Wolverine.

Humans Are Special / int_1c309c36	comment	In the pen-and-paper roleplaying game Teenagers from Outer Space, the aliens all have superpowers, but Earthlings have a few special abilities of their own, and to top it all off, Earth is universally acclaimed as the single coolest planet in the entire galaxy. (Which is why the aliens go there.) Humans also have the ability to "fake out", i.e. convince an alien of anything, like draping carpets over your head makes for impressive evening wear, or that kissing is a perfectly socially acceptable way of greeting anyone. After all, humans are the coolest species in the universe, so they should know, right? It seems humanity is the only species to actually invent popular culture/entertainment at all. Hence, we have the best music, movies, clothes, soft drinks, etc. and any alien species will either import what humans invented in this line, or copy it. One of the sample characters is a Rubber Forehead Alien High-School Hustler who explains that she can get the best tech from her homeworld simply by sending Earth music or fashion to them in trade. It's actually the other way around. She's amazed by how she can get a ton of awesomeness (designer jeans, Converse Hi-tops, sportswear) in exchange for a ratty old fusion generator or other junk.

However, Vision counters this by pointing out that despite their flaws, they continue to learn and grow and have accomplished incredible things in the short time they've existed.

Humans Are Special / int_28311661	comment	TierZoo is a web original series that treats zoology as if it were a PVP MMO. Humans are considered the most meta-defining and stupidly overpowered class in the game, defining S-tier. Being a good human support is enough to make some other animals S-tier. Humans have almost no bad match-ups except for small, eusocial flying insects. Bee Afraid. Humans have overpowered abilities like Overhand Throw, Stand Upright, Speech, and Sweat. Humans use the Teach and Speech skills to reduce the XP cost of respawning. Humans have absolutely terrible defense and stealth, average HP and mobility, mediocre base power, but maximum intelligence. Moreover, humans have the ability to substitute intelligence for every other stat except for HP, and their game-breaking tech tree seems to have no upper bound and to change even the worst unfavorable match-up to their advantage. Humans create whole new zones, such as when Tier Zoo did a "City Meta," defining which creatures excelled when in the human-dominated City environment. Humans define the meta. It doesn't matter how good your build is if in any way the humans decide to move against you in force. The humans don't even have to decide to hurt you; the Anthropocene climate change world event is wrecking havoc in the meta, and when humans gather resources, build fast-travel networks, or build bases like farms, roads, cities, mines, and so on, your existence is contingent on being able to tolerate the humans' presence. Likewise, if the humans decide they like you or want to party up with you, you'll probably be fine, though they might do something like turn a powerful wolf into a pug or something.

Humans Are Special / int_2fc1b0a1	comment	There are several blogs on Tumblr dedicated to making humans look spectacularly and hilariously insane to aliens, because we willingly ingest toxins (caffeine, alcohol) up to and including Hollywood Acid (pineapple juice and capsaicin) because we like the sensations they produce, make friends with anything, and have a devil-may-care attitude about the functionality of our transports (there are two stories about this, a drabble explaining that a hull breach is "fixed" with tape and happy thoughts, and a longer one where humans build their ships out of other race's castoffs). Most of these can be found under the tag "Humans are space orcs". This has also grown into a joke that humanity's uniqueness stems from evolving on a ridiculously dangerous planet, and, even worse, actively seeks out the most dangerous places on that planet. One story has an alien ask when we developed machines that could safely explore the extreme temperatures of Antarctica. The human answers that we didn't; We sent people. Then those people died, and we sent more people. Rince and repeat until they stopped dying.

Humans Are Special / int_343830b9	comment	The Night Unfurls: Inverted. By using the human fantasy race as a benchmark and comparing it to other Standard Fantasy Races, it is evident that they are portrayed as "humans but slightly different" provided that they are not The Horde (e.g. orcs, goblins, etc.). In particular, elves are "humans but Long-Lived and with Pointy Ears", while Half-lings are "short humans that look like petting zoo people". Fitting for a Low Fantasy setting populated by humans or non-humans who are not The Horde. From Kyril's perspective, this trope implies that humanity in general sees themselves as "pure" and "superior" compared to other races, even developing Delusions of Grandeur and invincibility, to the point where they forget they are mortal like the others. It is all too easy to show them how "human"note meaning flawed, mortal, and vulnerable they are by brandishing a weapon, and the facade fades quickly.

His previous attempts at creation, including leviathan and angels, disappointed him, but he loves and toys with humanity the most. This leads to copious amounts of Fantastic Racism from other species, but a few angels like Gabriel and Castiel, recognize that there is something special about humans, despite their flaws. Humanity also has certain special abilities possible, particularly when used in conjunction with other supernatural sources. Angels and Demons must also inhabit a human body in order to fully manifest their abilities on the mortal plane.

It has even been lampshaded somewhat in the new series and in Torchwood, where human characters faced with seemingly-unstoppable alien menaces openly wonder whether the Doctor will show up in time to save them.

That power makes it functionally impossible for humans to do more than "let" the entomorphs determine their own affairs and keep sovereignty over the world of Tethys in general.

Humans Are Special / int_5e150650	comment	Played with in Exalted; the very thing that makes humanity Special and allowed them to rise up to overthrow the Primordials at the behest of the gods is that they were NOT special; humanity was created as a servant race -to- the servant race of gods, weaker than almost everything else in the world, barely capable of using the magic of Essence. A mayfly race intended to be born, pray, and die, dependent upon the gods, providing them with needed power through prayer, so the gods would serve the Primordials. As a result ... binding them into servitude was deemed unnecessary, and when they were given power by the gods, they were able to rise up and throw down the Primordials. Humanity is Special specifically because Humans Suck, in effect. Also, Graceful Wicked Masques implies that humans have a much greater capacity for imagination and creativity than anything else in the setting...but these qualities tend to attract the attention of the Fair Folk while granting no real defense against them.

Humans Are Special / int_62570927	comment	This trope is played with in the Marvel Universe. When an alien conqueror sets his sights on conquering Earth. En route, he learns a stunning fact: the humans on that planet repelled the supposedly unstoppable attacks of Galactus, the feared god-like devourer of worlds not once, but multiple consecutive times. He quickly u-turns his ships and flees, fearing a species capable of that kind of defense. This happened a second time, in an X-Men parody of the DC series Invasion!. A group of aliens move to invade the world of 'Australia', and only one does the research. He finds out that the planet has hosted several people who can harness the Phoenix Force, have fought off Galactus, beaten back the Skrulls, once hosted the Silver Surfer, etc. He ran to alert his superiors. They shot him for interrupting, claimed that whatever he said couldn't have been that important, and proceeded to have their invasion fleet wiped out by Colossus, Longshot, a drunken Havok, and Wolverine. Played for laughs a second time when aliens challenge Earth's greatest heroes (the West Coast Avengers) to battle with their robot to test their strength. After all of the Avengers kill the self-repairing robot one after another, we find that the aliens assume that all 6 billion humans are a composite of the 6 members of the WCA, with all their powers combined, and instantly rethink their invasion plan. This is based on a number of older Stan Lee Stories where a superhero fights off an alien invasion, and the aliens flee, thinking that all humans are like this, or in Iron Man's case, that the humans have an army of robots. Played straight when the Ultimate Marvel Galactus is defeated, and Nick Fury says it makes him feel like he can challenge God. During Avengers: The Kree/Skrull War storyline in The '70s, this was why Ronan the Accuser wanted to wipe out the human race with a Kree Devolution Device. Based on his past defeat at the hands of the Fantastic Four, as well mankind's rapid technological advancement during The 20th Century, Ronan came to the conclusion that if left unchecked, Earth would eventually become a major threat to the Kree and their star-spanning empire. He was ultimately proven right during the finale, when the Supreme Intelligence allowed former Tag Along Kid Rick Jones to access the immense power that is supposedly buried within all of humanity, which Rick then quickly used to stop the warring Kree and Skrull armies. Uatu, a member of the ancient Watcher race, is convinced that humanity is innately noble, to the point he broke his non-interference vow to help save them from Galactus, the Planet Eater. After being put in trial for this, he has pretended to not care about humans anymore... but always manages to indirectly aid when needed, such as the time he tricked another Cosmic Entity (The Stranger) into not killing a group of superheroes, simply by showing up to "observe" the event, which led The Stranger to conclude Uatu would not have bothered unless the humans were going to win anyway. Speaking of the Stranger, he deconstructs the trope after acknowledging humanity as a threat for their successes in thwarting or repelling cosmic entities and much older galaxy-spanning empires along with their species' capacity to develop superpowers. To this end, he conducts "experiments" that just so happen to put the Earth at immense risk of destruction in indirect attempts to end humanity. A Marvel short story had an alien marvel (pun not intended) at the attention such a fragmented backwater like Earth received. It could be the only world in the known galaxies that produces the delicacy "ice cream." The alien in question is a trader who buys the stuff by the tanker-full. Ultimate Marvel has this with Captain Mahr Vell in the Ultimate Secret arc. He defects to the humans partly because of their enjoyable (American) culture, including Krispy Kreme donuts. This was a major plot point in Kurt Busiek's Avengers Forever. Essentially, if humans were allowed to reach and colonize space, they would quickly conquer it. Thus, everything from Thor's ability to open portals getting stolen to killing the Supreme Intelligence during Operation: Galactic Storm to The Crossing was an effort by Immortus to keep humans on Earth. It really came to a head in Maximum Security, in which the aliens of the Marvel Universe turn Earth into a prison to keep the humans busy. During Infinity, Emperor J'son of Spartax dismisses Captain America and humanity as a whole, telling them to go away until cannon fodder is required. The Kree Supreme Intelligence then points out that Spartax only has a 34 percent win ratio in confrontations with the Kree... and the human ratio is considerably higher. Suddenly, everyone decides it's a damn good idea to listen to Cap's advice. This is apparently why the Builders are bent on destroying humanity. One Builder even asks Captain Marvel what makes humans so special. In Avengers: No Surrender, this is given as one of the reasons the Grandmaster and the Challenger chose to hold their cosmic game on Earth:

Humans Are Special / int_69d15cc0	comment	Marvel Cinematic Universe: Discussed in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Ultron's hatred for humanity causes him to dismiss most of them as expendable, despicable or outright useless. However, Vision counters this by pointing out that despite their flaws, they continue to learn and grow and have accomplished incredible things in the short time they've existed. It's this that made Vision loyal to humanity's side rather than agreeing with Ultron. Demonstrated with beautiful subtlety in Doctor Strange (2016). Despite being an Incompletely Trained novice who has yet to reach even the level of Wong or Mordo, Stephen Strange, a mere mortal, not only wields the Time Stone like a man winding back his watch, but he and he alone forces the Multiversal Eldritch Abomination Dormammu into never threatening Earth again. You can count on one hand the number of alien or even godlike races that could do that. It's just one example of how unique human beings are and the insane potential some of them have. It's apparent that humans, and indeed Earth as a whole is unique among the galaxies by the time of Avengers: Endgame. While Thanos (and most cosmic villains prior to him) are quick to dismiss humans and consider Earth a "stubborn, annoying little planet", the people of Earth are also the only ones in his entire thousand years of conquest across the universe to ever pose a genuine threat to him. Countless alien civilizations far more advanced than humans fell to Thanos and the Black Order, but humans such as the Avengers (and their allies) were the ones to finally end him for good. As put on the film's Awesome page, "He decimated countless worlds, but Earth proved his equal." Further enforced in Eternals, after personally witnessing humanity's capacity for growth and their willingness to rally against Thanos, Ajak became attached to the intelligent life the Eternals were supposed to sacrifice to the Celestials, and decides for the first time in millions of years of serving the Celestials to stop the Emergence. After Ikaris kills her for it, she passes the role of leader on to the similarly pro-human Sersi. Demonstrated on a more epic and terrifying scale in Quantumania. As it turns out, the Quantum Realm is a multiverse all its own and the most inhabited part of it is a grand dictatorship led by Kang the Conqueror. All the species and meta-humans that live within it have never been able to defeat him or even come close to him in power (despite their numbers, tech and physical capabilities). However, a group of five humans from Earth: Scott, Cassie, Hope, Hank and Janet, are able to dismantle Kang's empire and even take the Conqueror and his henchmen on in a straight fight and live to tell the tale. They even manage to (possibly) kill Kang by the end. If that didn't demonstrate it enough, The Stinger shows that Earth has now become a high priority for the Council of Kangs, with one even saying if humanity continues to develop as rapidly as they are, they could conquer the entire multiverse as they have. They then rally every single Kang across all time and space to prepare for the Second Multiverse War. Zigzagged in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The High Evolutionary reveals he visited Earth decades ago and was very impressed with what Earth had to offer. He considered humans to have "wonderful spirit" and deeply admired humanity's art, literature and music, considering it among the finest in all the universe. In fact, he viewed human society as the next step in his quest for a "perfect society" and modelled his newest utopia Counter-Earth after their own. However, being who he is, this is hardly a compliment and in the very same breath he praises humans, he derides them as bigots and ignorant savages. It seems he believed their potential to be great, but not them as living, thinking beings.

Humans Are Special / int_6ac55ec7	comment	In Dungeons & Dragons, humans are treated as foolish and immature due to their abbreviated lifespans. Yet, they're truly capable of anything, as the rapid pace of their lives leads them to be quickly adaptable as a race, and driven to professional excellence as individuals. In 1st and 2nd edition, they had no special abilities whatsoever, but could run the full range of ability scores, could belong to any class, and had no limit to what level they could gain in their class. Other races could belong to two classes at once in predetermined combinations, but only humans could change their classes after creation (although it was a pretty grueling process, requiring you to start from scratch until you regained the level you switched at). In the earliest editions, humans DID have a class only THEY could obtain. Paladins were originally locked off from all other races. Paladin class features were uniquely powerful, and had weapons no other class could use. The only offset was the obscenely high stats required to roll such a character. In 3rd edition, humans again have no special racial powers, but instead gain a bonus feat of their choosing and can develop an extra skill, allowing them to excel right from the start. While other races have specific favored classes that don't count against multiclassing penalties, a human's favored class is whatever class he has the most levels in, making multiclassing a bit easier. In 4th edition, other races get bonuses to two predetermined ability scores and two predetermined skills, 2-4 passive abilities, and a bonus activated power (normally an 'encounter' power). Humans get a bonus to only one ability score, none as such to skills, and only a small bonus to all non-armor defenses as a true 'racial' ability...but by being able to assign that ability score bonus to whichever ability they choose and start out with training in an extra class skill, a bonus feat, and an extra first-level at-will attack power from their class list (which is a pretty big deal as for most classes this means going from having two such convenient always-ready attack modes available ever to having three), they can be easily competent in any class of their liking whereas other races' perks tend to encourage them to stick to the niches they're 'naturally' best suited for. They also get feats that are useful for anyone such as "human perserverence" and "stubbon servior". Humans are special in fourth and maybe third! As of Essentials humans now have a true racial ability "Heroic Effort". With it if you miss with an attack or fail a saving throw you can add a +4 bonus to the roll but you must give up the bonus at-will to get it. A good power, but if it is better then the bonus at-will or not is up to you. Pathfinder, as D&D 3.75, gives humans an absolutely amazing racial power. Like in 3.5, humans have an extra skill point per level and an extra feat. Humans also have no ability score penalty and a +2 to any one stat, allowing them to be amongst the best at every single class. There's no natural proclivity to lack in the area for a single class. Since ability scores are purchased in a non-linear fashion, making up for a racial deficiency is quite costly. In 5th edition, instead of getting a bonus to 2 stats like most other races (generally a +2 and a +1), humans default to being well rounded and getting a +1 to all of their stats. The book also includes a variant option: pick any two scores to get a +1, and start the game with a feat. In this edition feats are rarer, and any other race has to forgo gaining an ability score increase 3 levels later to even have the option of picking one; feats are also a lot more flavorful, giving more customized builds. This means that while technically any race can be any class (with varying degrees of competency), humans can be suited to whichever path they decide to go down. All these examples ignore an additional trait humans have; they have no particular enemies or hatreds. If the Game Master is the hacky-slashy kind that doesn't take into account role playing motivations, it's useless, but if (s)he does, then every PC who isn't human is going to run into Fantastic Racism which makes certain NPC or Monster creatures hostile right off the bat. If the GM really pays attention, it can even be a combat advantage. From another, more disturbing perspective, it's worth pointing out that in the Book of Erotic Fantasynote (yes, Erotic, you did read that right) it is heavily implied that humans are the only species besides dragons that can mate with anything and produce viable offspring. Every race has a hat, and ours is that we Really Get Around. Humans in Eberron have the most dragonmarks, magical, heritable marks that provide great gifts within a specific field. Most races get either one mark (gnomes with Scribing, dwarves with Warding) or two (half-elves with Detection and Storm, halflings with Healing and Hospitality, elves with Shadow and Death, although the latter is extinct), and changelings, kalashtar, shifters and most of the "exotic" races (dragonborn, tieflings, aasimar, whatever else your DM lets you run) don't get any at all. Humans get four to themselves - Making, Handling, Passage and Sentinel - plus the Mark of Finding, which they share with half-orcs.

While humans (priests, magicians, alchemists, devil forgemasters, etc.) and non-humans (vampires, night creatures, etc.) exist, and can have some overlapping disciplines of magic or other abilities, only humans are capable of accessing the branch of magic capable of directly reanimating the dead.

Humans Are Special / int_6e1d5f36	comment	Farscape has a good example in Crichton. While his alien friends make constant reference to how deficient humans are and can't understand how they manage to survive at all, they're saved time and time again by Crichton's defining human trait - ignorance! Quite simply, Crichton knows so very little about the region he's arrived in, more often than not, his successes are because he just doesn't know when he's been beaten... and his own personal traits. The episode where Crichton gets to save the day because his inferior human vision makes him less susceptible to a particular effect caused by a special kind of light. By the fourth season, Crichton's companions on Moya and his enemies are beginning to recognize humanity's drive and potential. Emperor Staleek was willing to specifically conquer and enslave Earth, despite being so far out of the way that without wormhole travel it would take over half a century at maximum speed for a Peacekeeper Command Carrier to reach it (this is less because it's home to humans and more because they learned Bird of Paradise flowers can be grown there; long story). When Crichton finally managed to return home and introduced his shipmates to Earth, humanity's strength as a Determinator is specifically mentioned by Noranti during a series of videos recorded by Crichton's cousin. One of the more supportive and sympathetic Talking Heads in the in-universe documentary that resulted takes great pride that this has been noted by an alien being.

Which has led them to the conclusion they can never be wrong and are always justified in their action, even though their careless pollution of the planet will lead to the Deluge (something Sirens are supposed to prevent them from doing) and some of them are hunting Sirens so they can become immortal by consuming their flesh. This has resulted in the entire Current becoming fanatics who actively support them in these actions and gleefully join them in hunting other Sirens.

Humans Are Special / int_70814599	comment	Prime example: Stargate SG-1: Humans are the dominant race in the galaxy, with the Jaffa running a close second. The Jaffa are themselves an offshoot of humanity, bred by the Goa'uld thousands of years ago to suit their purposes. Every other race they meet is either extremely arrogant, Always Chaotic Evil, has questionable morals, or are otherwise 'inferior' to humans. Probably the only exception are the Asgard, who also owe their their lives to the humans multiple times, despite being Sufficiently Advanced Aliens; and they commit species-scale suicide at the end anyway. Even the Ancients themselves (also humans, of a "previous evolution", who actually bootstrapped the evolution of humans on Earth), while being the show's legendary race and "gods" who ascended to a higher plane of existence, are labeled as wrong in their morals, for the most part. (They are so adamantly against interfering with the mortal plane that they would sooner allow all life in the galaxy to be destroyed than step in.) Compare Rousseau Was Right. Earth Humans specifically, commonly referred to as the Tau'ri, are particularly special. In the Milky Way galaxy, almost every planet is hindered in advancement by the Goa'uld except for Earth and a few others, which got a chance to develop freely. Other unhindered worlds are often beyond Earth standards technologically, but the Tau'ri are notable for their determination. The situation with the Wraith in the Pegasus galaxy is similar, where their feeding on humans limits the population growth of most societies. So, in the end it's not so much "humans are special" but "Earthlings are special". More to the point, there's very few other species than humans. The only major ones are Wraith (who are revealed to be part human anyway), Goa'uld, and Asgard. A few others exist, but 95% of everyone is a human or a related species in the three known galaxies. Earth Humanity is special because we have the ATA Gene, and the main reason for that is because we're the most crowded planet in the three galaxies. Human settlements of a few hundred to thousand is the norm, and the ATA gene is recessive. In fairness, there is a very good reason for human domination, and it's based around a completely different species. The dominant species for thousands of years have been the Goa'uld, a race of mind-controlling megalomaniacal parasites. The first species they possessed en masse were the Unas. A far larger, more intimidating and all-around more powerful species blessed with both huge endurance and natural self-healing (which the Goa-uld's own supplemented perfectly). Humans are in comparison weak, frail and pathetic, but they also have superior senses of taste and touch, and aren't as ugly. The Goa'uld, being gluttonous hedonists focused on power, food and sex, decided to make humans their slave race for few other reasons than these. They seeded humans across the stars en masse for use as slaves and worshippers, and killed off any other species (or any humans that got too advanced) to protect their own seats in the galaxy. When inevitably their empire fell, the humans were already everywhere. Less a case of humans special, more a case of humans getting vaguely lucky the Goa'uld invested so much in them before finally being kicked out of power.

This is a Cosmic Horror Story so the Mi-Go will create huge networks of supporters, which can go from cults to a secret conspiracy that controls the U.S government so they can brutally study humans in cruel experiments, such as extracting their brains in jars while they are kept alive. in attempts to gain human brain abilties.

Humans Are Special / int_7832b74c	comment	Steven Universe has Rose Quartz, the deceased alien mother of the protagonist, viewing humans as this trope. Gems are manufactured from non-living minerals using special machinery, with the new gems popping out of a hole in the ground for specific jobs and all the knowledge required for said job, such as a soldier or a servant. As such, she's mystified and somewhat jealous that humans innately have the ability to grow and choose what they wish to do with their lives. In a more immediate, practical sense, a lot of gem weapons and security systems are powerful against gems but ineffective against something more meat-based, allowing humans to waltz straight through. When Lars is trapped on Homeworld, he quickly becomes a fearsome, nigh-unstoppable space pirate, largely because so few Homeworld gems have the equipment or training to deal with a non-gem.

Humans Are Special / int_81692f99	comment	This concept has been the defining philosophy of every incarnation of Star Trek. Indeed, the very first episode, "The Cage", has the Keeper stating that "the creature appears more adaptable than our specimens from other planets." In the end, it is determined that humans are dangerously resistant to captivity, unlike any other they've encountered. Captain Picard in Star Trek: The Next Generation even quotes Shakespeare in an argument with Q, preceding it with "Oh, I know Hamlet. And what he might say with irony, I say with conviction: 'What a piece of work is a man! How noble in reason, how infinite in faculty! In form and moving how express and admirable! In action how like an Angel! in apprehension how like a god!'" Q is not pleased. As a whole, Trek seems to portray humans as the Mario of the Alpha Quadrant. We don't have the mega strength of the Klingons, the mental powers of the Vulcans, or the passion of the Romulans. But we are able to fight without being overcome by bloodlust, experience emotion without it becoming overwhelming, and devote ourselves to a task without being fanatical. Although the Federation is supposedly multi-species, most of the colony worlds depicted onscreen are populated by humans. The non-human members of the Federation each seem to have their race concentrated on a single home planet. Likewise, in addition to Starfleet crews apparently being mostly human, Federation starships follow human design paradigms. There are some starships that are crewed almost entirely by a non-human race, however, most commonly Vulcans. DS9, as befitting its Darker and Edgier premise, lapsed into Humans Are the Real Monsters on occasion, however. Even there, Nog commented on how rapidly humanity progressed from mercantilism to a starfaring civilization. Apparently it took the Ferengi twice as long. Fridge Brilliance: The Ferengi developed economics faster than any other race, and cultural myopia leads them to use this as the measuring rod of progress. In Star Trek: Enterprise Captain Archer reveals that while humans may not always be special they are, however, NOT gazelles. One of the Vulcans reveals in the pilot that humanity's specialness (specifically their rapid progress relative to other species) actually scares them. Deconstructed in the final season of Enterprise, with Human Supremacism being the driving ideology of both the Terran Empire in the Mirror Universe and the fascist "Terra Prime" organization. It's never satisfactorily explained how the Federation reconciles its multiculturalism with its humanism. For a race so assured of their own superiority, the humans sure put up with a lot of barbarism. In fact, in Star Trek 6 the Klingons call the Federation on its hypocrisy, calling it a humans-only club aside from a few token pet species, and criticizing our supposedly anthropocentric language such as the word "inalienable", which doesn't have anything to do with the modern meaning of "alien".

In a galaxy full of Transhumans, Posthumans, and godlike AIs, the notion is generally considered humorous. Baseline humans' specialness, if anything at all, lies in that they were the originator sophonts of the now splendidly diverse Terragen civilization. On the other hand, Terragen (all sophonts descended from Old Earth) civilization is more technologically advanced, diverse, or numerous than every extant xenosophont race contacted, and quite a few extinct races. Of the four xeno superclades on par technologically, three have comparatively small populations and have been stagnant for millions of years, and the fourth was technologically uplifted by Terragen civilization. Terragens may be special within their own bubble of influence, at least until their expansion brings them into contact with other civilizations of similar scale — which have been detected, but are as yet too far away to contact, or for them to know about the Terragens' existence.

Humans Are Special / int_a40b1126	comment	The alien creatures that attacked Earth in Independence Day have pulled the same routine of exterminating any resistance and stripping whole planets bare of natural resources like a literal plague of locusts across countless worlds. Guess what happened when they picked a fight with humanity? Particularly telling is that, once their impenetrable shields were disabled, the alien fighter pilots were getting outright spanked by the human pilots. You're talking highly-advanced alien spaceships going up against jet fighters from the late-90s with a significant numerical superiority going down in equally massive numbers. Of the human pilots shown being shot down in the finale, almost all of them were hit trying to make their attack run on the main ship's primary weapon, when they would be at their most vulnerable. Taken further 20 years later in the sequel, Independence Day: Resurgence. When the aliens return a 2nd time with a queen, a representative from an intergalactic resistance group also shows up. When the heroes manage to kill the queen in the climax it turns out we're the first ones to ever kill a queen. Now they want humans, a race which hasn't even developed interstellar travel yet (even after 20 years of studying the alien technology), to be the leaders of this resistance and take the fight to them. Yep, humans are pretty special.

Humans Are Special / int_a5549ed0	comment	In The Bible, humanity is special because they are the only creatures made in the image of God (one Psalm specifically states that we're just "a little lower than the angels" and this is about fallen mankind, judging by context. In other psalm, God calls humans "gods" and "sons of most high", the phrase that is recited by Jesus in John 10). And humans are meant to rule entire creation and one deuterocanonical book (Esdras 8:44) outright states that everything was made for mankind. And everything is for mankind part is repeated several times indirectly by Paul (ex: in Hebrews 1:14: Are they [angels] not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?.) And the most important part of Christianity: Jesus, who was fully God and Human and is called "Second Adam". Let that sink in: God is a Human.

While Thanos (and most cosmic villains prior to him) are quick to dismiss humans and consider Earth a "stubborn, annoying little planet", the people of Earth are also the only ones in his entire thousand years of conquest across the universe to ever pose a genuine threat to him. Countless alien civilizations far more advanced than humans fell to Thanos and the Black Order, but humans such as the Avengers (and their allies) were the ones to finally end him for good. As put on the film's Awesome page, "He decimated countless worlds, but Earth proved his equal."

Humans Are Special / int_a825da3e	comment	The human creature type in Magic: The Gathering is a relatively new addition to the game. Previously it was simply ommited for the fact that humans run the full gamut of colors, classes and power and have no synergy with each other. Even after our addition to the game lore, the human race plays a mostly insignificant role in most settings (the occasional legendary human in a given set might as well be replaced by any other creature); interestingly enough, most Planeswalkers (both in-game and lore-exclusive) are humans despite there being no mention at all about humans being special in any given way (other than the writers being human themselves). On the other hand, humans are one of the very few races to exist in meaningful numbers across all five colors, giving them unparalleled diversity and adaptability. Humans are the only non-monstrous intelligence to be able to even survive on the Gothic horror world of Innistrad; the lore indicates that it used to have elves, but they're extinct. The rest of the major forces more or less require humanity to exist: vampires need them to feed and reproduce, werewolves arise from among humans, and zombies and spirits are born from dead humans, meaning that keeping humanity around is pretty important for the plane to continue having, you know, stuff on it. As a result, Sorin Markov created the angel Avacyn to protect humanity from the forces that prey on it. Notably, Innistrad is one of the few planes where the Human creature type keeps being referenced by cards that care about it (albeit sometimes as lunch).

As it turns out, the Quantum Realm is a multiverse all its own and the most inhabited part of it is a grand dictatorship led by Kang the Conqueror. All the species and meta-humans that live within it have never been able to defeat him or even come close to him in power (despite their numbers, tech and physical capabilities). However, a group of five humans from Earth: Scott, Cassie, Hope, Hank and Janet, are able to dismantle Kang's empire and even take the Conqueror and his henchmen on in a straight fight and live to tell the tale. They even manage to (possibly) kill Kang by the end. If that didn't demonstrate it enough, The Stinger shows that Earth has now become a high priority for the Council of Kangs, with one even saying if humanity continues to develop as rapidly as they are, they could conquer the entire multiverse as they have. They then rally every single Kang across all time and space to prepare for the Second Multiverse War.

Originally, Wonderland was expelled from the universe as we know it for being based on imagination and whimsy rather than physics and logic. The Caretakers were perfectly fine with this, as they didn't wish to dirty their hands with that logic malarkey. And then humanity came along — creatures of logic that could imagine and dream — and the Caretakers decided, "Well, we can't have that..." Consider that humans aren't just meant to inherit Creation, but that the terrifyingly-powerful Caretakers are nothing more than stepping-stones meant to facilitate Mankind's ultimate awakening. Humans are special because Creation is intended for them.

In "The Human War", it's said that what makes humans special, and why they won the war against Opeterians, is that they are individually unpredictable. That seems less special when the logic is taken a bit further, though. Parodied again in "Politics 3", where humans are saved from an Alien Invasion because their politics is so uniquely messed up that the aliens can't prepare for the invasion by breaking down their institutions like everywhere else because "it's like stomping on broken glass."

Humans are identical to the Ultras' ancestors prior to the Ultras' Mass Super-Empowering Event, so they see humans as not only a reflection of themselves but as having the same immense potential to become as wise, benevolent, and valiant as they are.

Humans Are Special / int_b373a206	comment	In the Green Lantern comics, the Guardians of the Universe pick out humanity as one of the next few species to Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence, and note that humans make wonderful Green Lanterns. In a bit of subversion, one of the other races picked out as having potential is a species of intelligent space chipmunks, and humanity by and large doesn't seem to change much for 1000 years when the Legion of Super-Heroes comics take place. Played straight in the Elseworlds story Superman: Red Son, where it is revealed that Earth is actually Krypton in its distant past and that humans ultimately evolve into one of the most technologically advanced races in the universe. That was the opinion of the original Guardians. The new Guardians of the Universe think that, while Earth has has some imagination and great will, humans are stupid savages (like other races who hear about Earth), despite most of the reality bending stuff being related to them. The two Guardians who disagree with this opinion are Ganthet (who is the last original Guardian) and Sayd (who is his lover and seen how good humans can be firsthand), but are now exiled from the rest. The reason being that they "coddle humans too much" and for thinking that being emotionally detached from everything is bad (which has been shown to be true). Blackest Night #7 reveals they're lying. The Guardians know damn well Earth and humans are special, they just don't want anyone else to know. Guardians be damned, this trope is still in full effect as Grant Morrison's work on Justice League and Final Crisis explains that humanity are to become the Fifth World of gods and replace Darkseid, Apokolips, New Genesis and such. Darkseid's initial motivation in Final Crisis was to usurp this ascension, until everything went to hell and he decided to just end it all. Prior to Final Crisis Darkseid was interested in humanity because humans were one of the few species that possessed the Anti-Life Equation in their collective consciousness. He was especially interested in finding the few rare humans who possessed the entire Equation in their minds. In a possible Lampshade Hanging on tropes like Planet of Hats and Single-Biome Planet, a supplemental book for the Green Lantern comics states that Earth has more distinct cultures and languages than most galaxies. Further enlightened upon by Despero in Justice League: Virtue & Vice that part of the reason why Galactic Conquerors, Evil Overlords and the occasional Dominion would chronically attempt to enslave Earth was not in fact for its colorful array of superhumans within its populace but its multiple cultures, languages and differing perspectives which, when properly tempered, can move mountains or shift planets.

These dragons made up the minority of their kind, however, and so they with the aid of a powerful wizard taught other humans Dragonslaying Magic to bolster their numbers against their brethren. Unfortunately, unintended side-effects of Dragonslaying Magic included turning the practitioner into one after enough time and driving them insane in the process, and the most powerful and bloodthirsty Slayer of all ended up slaughtering almost all Dragons regardless of side upon becoming the biggest, baddest dragon of all. The few survivors ended up training a new generation of Slayers to fight him while ensuring they would never become monsters like him.

After all of the Avengers kill the self-repairing robot one after another, we find that the aliens assume that all 6 billion humans are a composite of the 6 members of the WCA, with all their powers combined, and instantly rethink their invasion plan. This is based on a number of older Stan Lee Stories where a superhero fights off an alien invasion, and the aliens flee, thinking that all humans are like this, or in Iron Man's case, that the humans have an army of robots.

Humans Are Special / int_c43df4d8	comment	In Doctor Who, humanity's ability to survive and adapt is what draws the Daleks to repeatedly try to conquer Earth. In both "The Ark in Space" and "Utopia", the Doctor proudly describes humans as "indomitable" as a reflection of this. The Doctor expresses contempt for Puny Earthlings ("stupid apes") during his darker moments. He does have a point, since Time Lords are superior in nearly every way. However, he has a certain degree of admiration for humans that inspires him to help them over and over again. They're just so special! To be fair, humans aren't likely to become as decadent as his own race, the Time Lords, who the Doctor himself described as megalomaniacs corrupted by "ten million years of absolute power". In fact, when it was decided the Time War with the Daleks wasn't going so well, they decided to tear open the universe, while they Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence. No wonder the Doctor never stayed home often, and no wonder he was forced to wipe them out. "Evolution of the Daleks" has the Doctor use this as a counter to Dalek Sec's Humans Are Bastards argument, by pointing out that the human mind has so much more potential than simply destroying. However, this theme is horribly subverted in the Tenth Doctor episode "Midnight", via a Locked in a Freezer scenario. And then affirmed fantastically in "Journey's End", with the Doctor-Donna. "I can think of things you two never would!" And we invented edible ball-bearings! No other species in the galaxy ever thought of that. In "The End of Time", human Wilfred marvels at the Doctor's long life and many adventures. He says "We must look like ants to you." The Doctor responds "I think you look like giants." The irony being that the entire premise of the show is that the Doctor, an alien, is having to almost constantly save humanity from extinction. It has even been lampshaded somewhat in the new series and in Torchwood, where human characters faced with seemingly-unstoppable alien menaces openly wonder whether the Doctor will show up in time to save them. Ultimately what makes humanity special in the universe of Doctor Who is our tenacity. As revealed in "Utopia", at the end of the universe, when entropic heat death is finally destroying everything that ever existed, it is humanity, out of all the billions of species in the universe, that has made it to the end. The tenacity is acknowledged by at least one Dalek who, in the face of its hateful xenophobic peers, asked "If we Daleks are so superior, why are we on the very edge of extinction while humans thrive?"

Sure, they're physically weak and in almost every incarnation, their technology is far behind the eponymous alien races, but those little bastards are still really hard to kill. Their adaptability is something else that's shown quite frequently, as Predators are often defeated simply because the human they're hunting uses something in their surroundings as a weapon, sometimes including the Predator's own weapon. The Alien vs. Predator novels outright state that humans are the better prey. "Kainde Amedah" ("Hard Meat", or the Xenomorph) is a favourite prey among youngbloods... but "Pyode Amedah" ("Soft Meat", guess who) is strictly forbidden to youngbloods; only distinguished Predators who have claimed trophies from certain other challenging prey can ask for permission to attend a human hunt.

Humans Are Special / int_e6758d93	comment	In Scion by White Wolf, the collective desire of humans to tell stories is the primary driving force of Fate, a power that binds even the Gods themselves. It is also through this that the characters' power grows. The more a Scion is talked about, the more powerful they become.

Humans Are Special / int_ebffc81f	comment	Mage: The Awakening has a certain opposing view between the mages of the libertarian Free Council and the authoritarian Silver Ladder. The Free Council mages believe Humans Are Special, with human works and endeavors containing arcane knowledge. The Silver Ladder mages believe humans aren't special, but that they should be, and being denied the arcane power they deserve is the ultimate crime. Also, collective humanity pretty easily trumps mages both individually and collectively. They're no longer the bedrock that holds the consensus together as in the Old World of Darkness, but they're still the source of Paradox (the force that causes magic to backlash and fail) and they have the most powerful and magically valuable souls in the setting short of possibly the Magi themselves, in a setting where souls are a very real and powerful force.

Humans Are Special / int_f00d733b	comment	Baseline humanity in the New World of Darkness has few things going for it, but a big one is that we're the only species with the divine spark, which lets us shape observed reality to an extent (and what keeps most of the incredibly powerful monsters at bay). Mage: The Awakening has a certain opposing view between the mages of the libertarian Free Council and the authoritarian Silver Ladder. The Free Council mages believe Humans Are Special, with human works and endeavors containing arcane knowledge. The Silver Ladder mages believe humans aren't special, but that they should be, and being denied the arcane power they deserve is the ultimate crime. Also, collective humanity pretty easily trumps mages both individually and collectively. They're no longer the bedrock that holds the consensus together as in the Old World of Darkness, but they're still the source of Paradox (the force that causes magic to backlash and fail) and they have the most powerful and magically valuable souls in the setting short of possibly the Magi themselves, in a setting where souls are a very real and powerful force. A big one is that only a human has the capacity to become a mortal Demiurge. The supernatural races can't create a Promethean because they lack human passion, or have powers that would tend to shortcut the drive and obsession necessary to pull it off. Deconstructed in fan-supplement Siren: The Drowning with the Current of Lethe, a faction of Sirens who genuinely believe Humanity to be special and the most important species on the planet. Which has led them to the conclusion they can never be wrong and are always justified in their action, even though their careless pollution of the planet will lead to the Deluge (something Sirens are supposed to prevent them from doing) and some of them are hunting Sirens so they can become immortal by consuming their flesh. This has resulted in the entire Current becoming fanatics who actively support them in these actions and gleefully join them in hunting other Sirens. Princess: The Hopeful: Every Court and Calling is given a positive stereotype towards normal humans, the quotes talking about their potential for greatness and the love the Princesses feel for them.

They are the only race to have been created solely by the male creation deity, and have access to any of the magic in the game that isn't race-specific by adapting the type of terrain they're located at - a degree of adaptability that no other race in the game shares.

Humans Are Special / int_f5d2ead0	comment	In Transformers: Cybertron, only humans can hear the sound made by the Plot Coupons' power. This was an addition made to the dub to fully justify the continued presence of the human companions after their initial usefulness as native guides largely ended. With this worked in, the Autobots had a legitimate need for the whole trio of Coby, Bud, and Lori to stay on and accompany them on search missions. They don't seek assistance from other humans because that would risk completely blowing The Masquerade and causing mass panic. Optimus Prime is perfectly aware that most humans would tend freak out about the presence of thousands of Super Robot refugees. So contact was initially limited to the three who had already found out (and had assisted an injured Autobot).

Apparently, this is because humans are already pretty crazy... From what it looks like, this pasta is just a first story of the bigger "Veil of Madness" cycle from 4chan.

Sorta-kinda a Self-Fulfilling Prophecy, in that the Drej wouldn't have had to worry about us if we hadn't been pissed off over them blowing up our planet. And if they'd had the sense to just leave it alone at that point, the Titan wouldn't have been recoverable, and the guy who could find and activate it would never have gone looking for it in the first place.

Humans Are Special / int_f74b5f80	comment	Suggested in Babylon 5 a couple times. Once as the ability to build communities out of disparate elements wherever we go, where other races might make military bases or choose to live apart from themselves and others. Londo Mollari also gives a rather tear jerking speech about how much he admires the humans for their seemingly futile yet terribly noble struggle to survive in the Earth-Minbari War. The Vorlons tell Delenn that the humans would be important in the upcoming Shadow war. Unfortunately, that is not demonstrated convincingly; individual humans are important, and B4 and B5 are important, but humans in general seem to stay out of things. At one point, Delenn mentions that the humans are the only known race who would build a station like Babylon 5, where all races were welcome—anyone else would have built a station only for their own race and maybe a few others.

Humans Are Special / int_f8705c18	comment	In Hellsing, Alucard rather admires humanity to a point, though he generally makes a distinction between "human dogs", "humans who become monsters" and "real humans". Alucard has pointed out (at least in the manga) that only a human can kill a monster (referring to himself). So humans are, if nothing else, significant. When Father Anderson gives up his humanity and becomes a monster, Alucard is horrified. Not from fear of being defeated, but because the human he thought might be the one worthy to kill him has thrown it all away.

When the aliens return a 2nd time with a queen, a representative from an intergalactic resistance group also shows up. When the heroes manage to kill the queen in the climax it turns out we're the first ones to ever kill a queen. Now they want humans, a race which hasn't even developed interstellar travel yet (even after 20 years of studying the alien technology), to be the leaders of this resistance and take the fight to them. Yep, humans are pretty special.

The Kree Supreme Intelligence then points out that Spartax only has a 34 percent win ratio in confrontations with the Kree... and the human ratio is considerably higher. Suddenly, everyone decides it's a damn good idea to listen to Cap's advice. This is apparently why the Builders are bent on destroying humanity. One Builder even asks Captain Marvel what makes humans so special.

The series Big Bad, the Queen of the Crowns want to use human Life Energy to power her army of Slaverlords (because it usually takes multiple members of any other species to create one, but only one human). Races who are not actively hunting humans for Her Majesty consider human beings to be completely and utterly unpredictable and insane. A popular fan theory states the only reason the Andorians and the Kiwi bothered to ally with humans was because Earth was crazy enough to come up with weapons capable of matching the Queen's brutality.
