A kid, usually an orphan, who has lived on the streets for most of their short life. Survival is a matter of stealing whatever they need, doing odd jobs, and/or stuff you'd probably rather not think about. They may actually have a home or family, but the situation there may be so bad that living on the streets is preferable, or they're out stealing for their family's sake. The vast majority of them usually grow up into street gangs or worse, but the ones we usually deal with have a run-in with the hero of the story. Older characters usually end up becoming an older brother or father to them, or at least friends. In this case, they might end up Recruited from the Gutter. Street Urchins are usually boys, but having the character suddenly revealed to be a tomboy is just as common. Not quite a Wholesome Crossdresser, she just really doesn't have the money for any feminine clothes. Not to mention that, in many places like this, it's probably for the best that some people not know you're a girl. Though there are a few examples of openly and obviously female urchins. Expect them to have a Cockney accent, even if they're American. They also tend to wear flat caps. If the character seems perfectly happy with their lot in life and practically seems to thrive on the streets, then you have yourself The Artful Dodger. If this character grows up into a hardened survivor and is proud of his hungry years, you've got a Satisfied Street Rat. If your character isn't human, expect an Ear Notch or two. They may end up regularly assisting the heroes as a Baker Street Regular. A very sad case of Truth in Television, but far, far worse out here. |

Lyra from His Dark Materials is a rare voluntary example: she was born and raised among the posh, wealthy nobility of Oxford and knows every single licentiate in the Jordan College, but she spends her days fighting against the kids from the other neighborhoods, stealing stuff from the docks, and climbing and sneaking around Jordan College during the night. | |

While the main characters in Twig are a team of mixed Child Soldiers and Human Weapons, they get on well with the local street children of Radham, who they affectionately refer to as "the Mice," and are extremely protective of them, going out of their way to target those that would prey upon them. When Sy and Mary need to infiltrate another town, they reach out to the Mice, who get them in contact with a man from the city who used to be one but ended up in prison. | |

In Sampaguita, the 3rd game of the Yarudora series: Main heroine Maria and her adopted older brother Boy were this in their early life in the Philippines. They were doing little jobs such as selling sampaguita flowers in the street crossroads, doing their best to survive. The game treats the player with a Flashback of these moments when Maria tells her past to the protagonist, after she has recovered her memories and fallen in love with him. A secondary character, Randy Santiago, also tells he was a Filipino street urchin in his younger days, while talking to the protagonist and giving him info about the Philippines. |

X-Men: Storm started out as one of these after an airplane crashed atop the Cairo home of her Black American father and Kenyan mother. She had a solid claim to being the best pickpocket and escape artist in the city by the time she hit puberty only to wander south along the Nile on impulse, have her powers kick in, and spend the bulk of her adolescence as a Weather Deity made manifest on the Serengeti. To this day, her street urchin skills come in handy in combat. She hasn't met a lock she couldn't pick. In fact, when wearing a costume that features it, her tiara contains a number of lock picks. Jubilee, after the murder of her parents. She spent a few years living on the streets of L.A., doing fireworks shows with her abilities, before being picked up by the X-Men when the X-women at the time (Dazzler, Rogue, Storm and Psylocke) went for a shopping spree in a L.A. mall. Gambit spent most of his young life being raised to be a thief by thieves in the streets and swamps of Louisiana. When he met Storm for the first time, she suffered from Laser-Guided Amnesia and briefly returned to her thieving ways. The two quickly became partners in crime. |

Berry Zilwicki from Honor Harrington spent the first fifteen years of her life in the underground slums of Old Chicago, and much of that without her mother. While not portrayed in detail, her life is often stated to have been hellish, including having been raped. The fact that she doesn't have much in the way of trauma is viewed as very remarkable. Berry's younger brother, Lars, also fits this trope. |

In The Ship Who... series, Simeon, the protagonist of The City Who Fought found and managed to befriend a stowaway named Joat who'd been hiding out in his passageways and performing maintenance. At the urging of his new brawn, Simeon offers to adopt Joat and is surprised to hear that Joat is actually a girl. While there's some friction and the Department of Child Disservices interferes, ultimately Joat is Happily Adopted, and a major help during the events of the novel, defending her home and "Pops" against invaders. | |

In The Night Unfurls, Sanakan and Hugh deconstruct this by showing how unlikely for orphaned pickpockets like them to thrive in the streets and be satisfied with their life. They manage to reside in a village as shelter, only for it to be attacked by the Black Dogs. Hugh ends up getting stabbed in the eye by an orc, left to bleed out; Sanakan gets taken by a group of those mercenaries to a church, rounded up along with the village women for an orgy. Were it not for Kyril cleaning up the entire village of the Black Dogs and finding the two by chance, the two would be doomed. They won't even survive one chapter in a Crapsack World that's Harmful to Minors. | |

Emma: A Victorian Romance provides a rare female example in the title character, Emma. As a child, she was kidnapped from her (desperately poor) home and barely escaped being sold into prostitution. She lived on the streets of Victorian London for the next few years selling flowers and begging for food until Kelly Stownar took her in to test the hypothesis that anyone can succeed if given a good education. | |

Vorkosigan Saga: Jin Sato from Cryoburn is a street urchin. Somewhat unusually for this trope, he hasn't been on the streets his whole life, and he left his aunt and uncle not because they were horribly abusive, but because his aunt threatened to get rid of some of his pets, which include a falcon, rats, three hens, and a three-legged cat. The real reason he couldn't stand living with his aunt and uncle is the way they've tried to obliterate the memory of his mother, out of fear of the MegaCorp who had her frozen. Miles thinks that he's The Artful Dodger or a single Baker Street Regular. This is a mistake. This is also part of Sergeant Bothari's backstory: after running away from home at the age of twelve to escape from being forced to work as a child prostitute, he lived on the streets as a member of one of the slum gangs of street children, until he was tall enough to pass for eighteen and join the army - by which time, of course, he would already have had plenty of experience of having to fight to survive. In some ways, Bothari's experience parallels Aral Vorkosigan's experience of having been a Child Soldier from the age of eleven, long before he officially began his military service - although they had come from opposite ends of the social spectrum, neither of them had had the opportunity to have a normal childhood that people from other planets (like Cordelia) or from a later, more peaceful generation (like Miles) would take for granted. |

It gives a proficiency bonus to Sleight of Hand and Stealth checks, as well as using Disguise Kits and Thieves' Tools.

Duo Maxwell in Gundam Wing is shown to have run in a gang of urchins in the prequel manga, Episode Zero. He ends up getting set on the path to being a Humongous Mecha pilot when terrorists hold his friends, and the Nun and Priest caring for them, and offers to steal a mobile suit to get them freed. He actually pulls it off, too, but true to his later persona as a Broken Hero, it doesn't end well. The novelization of The Movie takes it a step further by showing his life before the church: he was the second-in-command of a group of street urchins led by a young man named Solo. When Solo caught a nasty disease whose vaccine was reserved for the rich, the boy stole some but didn't make it back in time. He never got sick himself, which he attributed to Solo watching over him and took on the name "Duo" to symbolize that they'd always be a team. Duo becomes the gang's new leader, which is where he is when his chapter of Episode Zero starts. |

Several characters are this in Rose Guns Days, starting with Wayne, who fled from his abusive foster family and survived alone before being picked up by Rose, after which he swears Undying Loyalty to her. Season 2 also introduces Charles, Nina and Oliver, who are among the many orphans created by the Great Disaster. They were picked up by an old man who offered them shelter in exchange for… taking music lessons. Because they were used to life in the streets though, their apartment is a little bit messy. | |

Terry Pratchett's non-Discworld novel Dodger is set in a Victorian London almost identical to our own and has characters suspiciously reminiscent of those in Oliver Twist. Indeed, Charles Dickens himself is a major character who interacts with the streetwise Dodger. | |

Fan Works based on My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic commonly characterise Scootaloo as such, due to the show's failure to provide any canon information on her family in over four seasons, and only once showing her living anywhere. A Taste of the Good Life has her living in an abandoned restaurant, which is bought by the Main character. | |

In the Outlander series, Fergus grew up this way, living in a whorehouse, unsure which of the ladies was his mother, until adopted by Jamie. In places it's a very dark take on this trope — for example, the fact that Fergus had also prostituted himself for money. | |

Until Niko found him Briar was an orphaned street kid who survived through theft with other urchins in a thieves' gang. Later in the books he always interacts with the street urchins from whatever town they're currently in.

The Han Solo Trilogy: Han's earliest memories were being on the street as a child by himself, with no clear memory of his past, begging to survive. Garris Shrike then "rescued" Han, though it turns out he has former street kids beg, con or pickpocket for him. Many more children who used to be homeless lived there with Han on Shrike's ship, the Trader's Luck. Later, when he's left all of that behind, Han meets one Jarik Solo, a supposed Long-Lost Relative who it turns out also had been a street kid. Han learns he isn't his relative, but feels very sympathetic with poor Jarik as a result of his own past, letting it slide and keep the name as he knows much he's got to desire a family. Jarik becomes as good as family to him after this. | |

The Legend of Korra: Mako and his little brother Bolin grew up on the streets, and are explicitly referred to as Street Urchins by Butakha, the pro-bending organizer. They ran numbers "and stuff" for the Triple Threat Triad, before being taken in by Toza, who mentored them in pro-bending and arranged to let them live in the arena's attic apartment. There's also young Skoochy, a boy who likes to serve as an informant. Wan, who would become the very first Avatar, was one of these as well. The last Earthbender Avatar, Kyoshi, was one of these for a few years as revealed in The Rise of Kyoshi. Her best friend Yun was also one until he was fourteen. |

Ender's Shadow includes Bean's backstory, which reveals how he grew up in a street urchin gang, amongst other, rival gangs. The leader who picked him up was named Poke, the cross-dressing kind of street urchin. Revealing this information was part of how Achilles had taken over control of her gang. Card got pretty graphic with his depections of street urchin life. The swollen bellies of hunger and just how much a meal counts, and the long-term emotional abnormality you get from trying to be self-sufficient so young. As badly as his heroes Angst about their selfish natures, his antagonists seem to revel in those same flaws. | |

Lupin III: Dead or Alive establishes the current tone/mood of the Zufu nation with a scene of an open-stall market, where people are arguing over the price of apples. When two boys hiding in a Totem Pole Trench are caught stealing apples, they run away from the proprietor, bringing the apples they stole back to their gang of a half-dozen group of similarly poorly clothed kids. | |
