Postal (video game series)/Characters

The Postal Dude

Your main character. Can be a lunatic or pacifist, your call.

• Actual Pacifist: Technically achievable in the second game, though very difficult to pull off.
• Badass: Even if he never kills anyone, just surviving all the batshit insanity of his own universe qualfies him.
  • Badass Pacifist: If the pacifist run is attempted.
  • One Man Army: Invoked, since it's basically the entire game world against the Postal Dude.
  • Sociopathic Hero: Even as a pacifist, he has a very callous amount of respect for human life, even if he's not doing the killing.
• Deadpan Snarker: Over half of the Postal Dude's dialogue.
• Going Postal: The whole point to the game is to invoke this trope, though you can be a pacifist if you want.
• Heroes Love Dogs: He cares quite a bit about Champ, rescuing him is basically the plot of Paradise Lost.
• Henpecked Husband: The catalyst of the second game plot in fact.
• I Regret Nothing: His catchphrase, more or less. Standard line if you make him commit suicide.
• Pet the Dog: When he's given the chance to be a law abiding citizen and he isn't treated like shit, he can be a legitimately nice guy.
• Unlucky Everydude: Even as a pacifist, he never asked for the shit he has to deal with.
