Plus, it makes it more convenient for the hero should he ever need to hide amongst the goons. It's also helpful in animation, because you only need to design one character (or render one model in the case of video games) and one action figure. There's also the fact that it's easier on a show's budget, as the director can keep reusing the same ten extras without the audience catching on quickly. Not showing any pesky emotions to undercut their menace also adds quite a bit to the creepiness factor. It's much easier to accept characters as evil (and by extension, feel no tug of sympathy as wave after wave of them get wiped out by the heroes) if you are able to forget that there's actually a human being behind each mask. Most obviously, the faceless goon does not display emotion hence, he does not display humanity. The reasons for this trope are largely matters of convenience. You'll never see any faceless goon Pet the Dog, but you will see them kick plenty of them. Note that a unique face as a symbol of identity means that You All Look Familiar allows for unmasked but identical mooks to be effectively Faceless. Note that a balaclava or Ninja mask covers everything except the eyes, but goons wearing them still count. Sometimes, the (perpetually scowling) lower portion of their faces may be visible, but their eyes will pretty much always be hidden, like under the brim of a helmet, behind Scary Shiny Glasses or malevolent looking masks (especially Gas Masks or Rage Helms), or beneath an opaque visor. They will wear matching uniforms and helmets or masks that completely obscure their facial features.
The Faceless also come in bulk, as demonstrated by this subset of Evil Minions whose defining characteristic - apart from being evil, of course - is the lack of individual identity. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE.
THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples.Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted.Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so.
