Added DiffLines:

* BadBoss: Dr. Stasis begins the story tense, but fortunately he has minions to yell at, which helps ease his tensions somewhat.
-->'''Dr. Stasis:''' If you can't yell at the help, what can you do?
* ContinuityNod: Stasis and Righteous's date starts off rocky after their prior meeting in Gerry Duggan's ''X-Men'', where Righteous kicked Stasis in the crotch.
* ConvenientlyInterruptedDocument: The text pages are taken from a manuscript titled "Fall of X". Much of it is blanked out. The last page is almost ''entirely'' blacked out.


Added DiffLines:

* DepletedPhlebotinumRounds: Stasis has a Sinister-Sixgun. Nothing to do with ''Mr'' Sinister, it's just made of weaponized abilities from the Sinister Six.


Added DiffLines:

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Dr. Stasis finds he still has some of the 18th century mindset, and makes a ''faux pas'' by dismissing Righteous's interests as "feminist fluff", before apologizing and admitting he should be more supportive. [[spoiler:However, his end goal is still to make Mother Righteous obey him.]]

Added DiffLines:

* {{Foreshadowing}}: Stasis-Sinister's recollection of his activities to Mother Righteous shows a panel with him in front of the door to the Vault (as in "The Children of..."), with his balloon saying he's been "busy". [[spoiler:''ComicBook/RiseOfThePowersOfX'' reveals Stasis was a co-creator of the Children of the Vault.]]

* MundaneUtility: Stasis uses his research into [[Characters/IncredibleHulkBruceBanner the Hulk]] to craft a gamma ray gun - which he then uses to prepare a steak. A tiny piece of meat "hulks out" to become a much bigger green steak. Apparently it tastes divine, complete with puns about "a smashing steak".

* CallBack: Nimrod was initially created by BrainUploading a slain Orchis scientist. His personality was almost immediately lost again when Krakoa first tried to destroy Nimrod. In ''Sons of X'', [[spoiler:Mother Righteous uses her magics to show Nimrod what he's lost]].
