The Butcher	comment	Want to make sure everyone knows exactly how bad your badass is? Or how crazy your Ax-Crazy gets? Add "The Butcher" onto his name. Butchers hack up meat all day and are always surrounded by blood and gore, so they must be violent, scary people, right? You'll certainly never see "The Baker" or "The Candlestick Maker" used this way, we guarantee. Bonus points if "The Butcher" is a literal butcher, complete with cleaver, apron, and a penchant for hacking up victims gruesomely. Although the nickname can sound impressive, it's almost never intended to be a compliment in real life. The title is most often slapped on Serial Killers and military leaders who are accused of war-time atrocities. "To butcher" something can also mean to do a hack job of it, so the title can sometimes be a Stealth Insult and is often used for incompetent surgeons. Due to the many negative connotations of the word, it's no surprise that many butchers prefer to go by "meat cutter." The stigma against butchery is largely unfair to professional meat cutters, who usually don't slaughter anything themselves. Their job tends to consist of chopping large hunks of meat (sometimes directly from animal carcasses) into smaller cuts of meat, with an emphasis on precise knife strokes and good presentation. Sub-Trope of The Magnificent, and of Names to Run Away from Really Fast. Compare Red Baron.

Whenever the Butcher is killed, they pass on a portion of their powers to their killer, as well as their mind as a voice in the killer's head. This includes all of the previous Butchers' powers and voices as well. The Butcher who appears in the story is number fourteen, and has a long list of powers including superhuman strength and durability, pain inducement, the ability to see circulatory systems through walls, danger sense, the ability to cause festering wounds, explosive teleportation, the ability to shape raw matter into objects, rage inducement, pain immunity, and homing attacks.

The Butcher / int_1a12bbee	comment	The Mighty Thor: Villain "Gorr the God Butcher". That's not an exaggeration, it's exactly what he does - brutally slaughtering gods. He was preceded by Desak the God-Slayer who did pretty much the exact same thing for the exact same reason. But, admittedly, Desak did not butcher gods... he slew them. With an axe, usually. Gorr's weapon All-Black the Necrosword's corrupting influence (it's actually the first Symbiote) turns those who wield it into examples of this trope. Galactus the World Devourer became Galactus the World Butcher when he bonded to All-Black. When Loki got a hold of it, he became Loki the All-Butcher.

In the midst of all the grieving after the War In Hell arc, some main character orcs can't resist doing a Happy Dance of Mood Whiplash when they hear that at least Damaske the Butcher went down. They can't bring themselves to be sympathetic about his son, Dominic's friend, dying as well, and they don't even know about what he did. Points to Dominic for managing to be friends with one of the last of the Alheera and a Damaske at the same time, even if it was apparently only possible due to political cluelessness.

They are apparently actual butchers; the first is seen chopping meat when you first encounter him. The same game also has a notable enemy NPC called Maneater Mildred, who wears the creepy burlap sack that the aforementioned Butchers hide their faces with (and nothing else) and uses their oversized meat cleaver. A line by another NPC implies that the two Butchers are her mooks, even though you encounter her much later in a completely different area of the game.

He's a parody of Hanzo the Razor, who did some pretty squicky things, but wasn't particularly bloodthirsty either. In fact, it's likely Manzo's nickname is meant to be ironic, because he isn't particularly sharp.

They fit the trope in title, in personality, and in secondary occupation, as their gimmick is that they are literally a pair of butchers, with their promo being recorded in the cold room of a butcher's shop, with the belts being hung up on meat hooks behind them, right next to Betsy, which appears to be a cow's leg. In fact, it's questionable whether it's just a gimmick or if they are actually butchers outside of the ring, as it's revealed that they end up having to vacate the tag team title after being linked to an E.

He squashed the Jacobite rebellion of 1745, and accounts of his character vary greatly: some sources cite him as a ruthless and vicious man who terrorised his own men as well as the enemy, while others have him enforcing strict discipline on his men to ensure fair treatment of surrendering Jacobites. One accusation leveled at him was that instead of tending to wounded enemy soldiers on the battlefield (as the warfare etiquette of the time dictated), he simply slaughtered them - hence, "The Butcher."

The Butcher / int_8b419fa5	comment	While not as blatantly obvious, Mordecai of Lackadaisy has used the alias "Elijah Metzger," which the creator mentioned is "perhaps altogether too appropriate for him." "Metzger" is a German word meaning "butcher." We're first introduced to Mordecai (in canon) wielding a bloody hatchet and an irritated expression. It fits.

Forlough got the even more unsavory nickname of "The Baby-Killer," which is not the demonizing hyperbole that it sounds like. The Clans aren't beyond this, either: later Jade Falcon Khan Malvina Hazen got the nickname The Butcher of Wotan for her handling of labor strikes on the planet... the summary execution of five thousand civilians. Not just the striking laborers, either; Hazen rounded up the first five thousand civilians she could lay hands on and executed the lot.

As there's a Running Gag over Bayban being obsessed about his notoriety (he even resents Blake for having eclipsed him on the Federation Most Wanted list purely because Blake is a political dissident) he probably chose the moniker himself. Though Bayban clearly deserves it given Vila's Oh, Crap! reaction on meeting him.

Sheridan's nickname among Minbari is "Starkiller", for his taking out their flagship Black Star during the Earth/Minbari War. This was the Earth Alliance's only major victory in a largely one-sided war, making the use of the moniker a sign of hypocritical sour grapes. The nickname is derogatory on the Minbari side because Sheridan destroyed the Drala Fi ("black star" in Minbari Warrior language) in an act of subterfuge and not in open combat, basically calling him a war criminal. Again, this is ignoring the fact that the Black Star answered Sheridan's false distress signal in order to destroy his supposedly helpless ship, which by human standards is highly dishonorable.
