Is Trogdor real in the Homestar Runner universe? I think he is. I think when Strong Bad created him somehow he became real.

No I think he's just a character Stong Bad made up.

That depends entirely on the number of Cold Ones consumed within the last 12 hours.

Could you at least have something else to give that post meaning?

I think he's real. He's real in our hearts!

No, what Evanji said makes perfect sense. If you drink enough, everything's real.

I think he's fictional. Somehow Trogador is real, if we assume 20x6 is real, but I think the 'dor is fictional. Sorry.

Yeah, we've only ever seen him in pictures and stuff in the main toons, never actually interacting with the "real" characters, unlike, say, Senor Cardgage, who also started out as just a made up character but eventually was seen doing stuff in the "real world" with the regular characters. I always figured he's just a popular video game/cartoon character in the main H*R-iverse.

Yeah, he's probably just a dragon that Strong Bad drew and sang a song about.

He is real in Peasantry, though.

Of course he's real, in the universe within the H*R universe (i.e. Video Games!) but no, he's not "real" in the sense that he physically interacts with the H*R characters.

But didn't Strong Bad make up the entire 20x6 universe? I think Trogdor is some sort of trans-dimensional being because apparently it can appear pretty much anywhere.

sicne i'm the one with the trogdor based username, i guess i should tell you guys straight.

Trogdor was made up by Strong Bad. He's not real in the "free country usa" world. he's in video games and drawings. it is odd however that strong bad owns a video game of a character that he himself created...

not so odd when you consider that he also watched an episode of "Sweet Cuppin' Cakes" with Homestar, AND that homestar was also seen watching "Stinko Man K 20X6" in an easter egg.

Strong Bad did create 20X6. But I think after he created 20X6 it became real in the Homestar Runner universe somehow.

No, Trodgor and his world are a fictional sub-universe in the main H*R universe.

Yeah like when he appeared on the KoT Homepage. There is a chance that he probably exists in the HR Universe!!!!!! Man I love exclamation marks!!!!

I would totally like to see Troggie in "real-world" format!

Thus I say, Trogdor is in fact real. Trogdor's cave is in the very deepest outskirts of Free Country.

With that said, I also belive Peasantry is the Medivial version of Free Country, USA

well we haven't seen him in any real toons that feature strongbad homestar marzipan etc but due to trogdorcon we know they know he exists.

Five Iron Frenzy · **Posted:** Sat Oct 28, 2006 8:12 pm

I consider him to not be real as he has never along side of the game in Free Country, USA. I still believe he's just from Strong Bad's imagination.

The "Trogdor is real" side of the arguement seems to have some merit if there are versions of Trogdor in the 20X6 universe and in the garden the band "Cool Tapes" plays at.

So if looked at like that it seems very improbable that a simple dragon Strong Bad drew and showed Coach Z, Strong Sad, Strong Mad and Homsar how to draw would be popular enough in that universe to be made in a garden or into an anime (Which is almost what 20X6 seems to be, or an alternate reality). Maybe Trogdor does exist or maybe it doesn't.

Hmm, I wonder if that makes any sense whatsoever.

Not necessarily. Just because a convention is named after something doesn't mean it's "real." After all, Star Trek isn't "real," but it has lots of stuff named after it, right?

You also have to remember, the comic convention wasn't actually called Trogdorcon. That's just what Strong Bad called it.

Trogdor is fictional in the H*R universe, just like the Powered By the Cheat cartoons are.

Muted the Dragoon · **Posted:** Thu Nov 02, 2006 4:12 pm

I think that is somewhat like looking into a mirror that is looking into a mirror ect... SB was created in H*R toons. And in Sb's toon thats where trogdor is.Who knows maybe in trogdors world he creates tiny little burninated peasents. The cycle goes on forever

Second'd.
He's a fictional character to the people of Free Country, U.S.A.

No.
He's a real.
He's a real fictional character...you know, like [edited for the sake of everyone's innocent eyes].

Trogdor is real in the Homestar Runner universe. Strong Bad's imagination somehow comes to life. How else would Strong Bad rub elbows with his Japanese cartoon and 3D vector game counterparts? I'd like to see Strong Bad meet Trogdor in person. But this is taking it way too far. As an ingenious Brother Chap once said, "it's just a cartoon."

Plastique · **Posted:** Mon Nov 20, 2006 4:45 pm

I think Trogdor is just in cartoons and stuff. I'd say the reason he appears in a Videlectrix game is probably because they only ship games to Free Country, USA - which seems to be the only place in the world with backward-enough technology. And Strong Bad is their only customer. He's basically keeping them in business, so they make the games that he wants! Sweet Cuppin' Cakes probably appeared on TV because Strong Bad submitted it to Free Country's TV company, and since there are around 10-20 people/things living in Free Country altogether... there probably wasn't much competition.

On the other hand... it's a cartoon. Anything's possible!

Cheatachu · **Posted:** Mon Nov 20, 2006 10:24 pm

Trogdor is real.

Only he's in the land of Peasantry and is not in Free Country.

That should settle things a bit, right?

Evang · **Posted:** Mon Nov 20, 2006 11:24 pm

I always assumed that Strong Bad pawned off the rights to crap like Trogdor and Stinkoman to Videlectrix, who, being desperate for ideas, would buy any concept, and likewise Strong Bad sold off Cheat Commados and Sweet Cuppin' Cakes to Cheap as Free. OR SOMETHING I DON'T KNOWS

And the year 20X6 just happens to be, very ironically, exactly the same as the concept Strong Bad made ex-ty years ago.

I DON'T KNOW I HATE FANON

Trogdor is real in the Homestar Runner universe, I mean, how can you have your own video game and not be real?
