The story is based upon the premise that there are a group of mysterious beings going around, Choosing people to gain superpowers. Every [[{{Superhero}} Chosen]] (as they are called in-universe) gains superpowers, and has their sex changed. Each story focuses on a small group of Chosen[[note]]with the exception of the first, as it introduces maaany Chosen and follows almost all of them for at least a short while[[/note]], and explores how they deal with their sex reassignment and newfound powers. It makes many references to mainstream heroes and villains[[labelnote:note]]the most notable of which being a character that, in-universe patterned themself off of The Joker, to the point that they ''actually call themselves The Joker’’[[/labelnote]].

!!The Brave New World Universe contains examples of:
*ActionGirl: Charlie, Brenda, Sate, Allie, etc, etc…. There are too many to list.
*AlternateUniverse: [[spoiler:Tim]] travels through many of them in the course of learning his many powers.
*AlwaysSaveTheGirl: [[spoiler:Tim]] is fighting the Benefactor to save the world, but mainly to save [[spoiler:Charlie]]; [[spoiler:The Benefactor became what he is because his Charlie died in his original timeline]].
*Archetype: Charlie falls into many superhero tropes after becoming Arachnya.
*ArbitrarilyLargeBankAccount: The Benefactor seems to have unlimited funds to do everything that he does.
*{{Badass}}: Almost ''every named character''.
*BadassNormal: in addition to being a ''huge'' {{Batman}} ripoff, probably the most notable of this is Knight.
**Executioner[[note]]Brewing Storm[[/note]] even though we don’t actually see a whole lot of him. In addition to being a member of [[{{NebulousEvilOrganization}} HARP]], he also has ImprobableAimingSkills.
**General Leroy[[note]]Also from Brewing Storm[[/note]], who has his leg ''frozen off'' and still goes out to do battle with Allie.
*BigBad:[[note]]there are multiple examples of this, as each story takes place mostly in isolation from the others, and there are many loose sideplots running around...[[/note]] The Benefector. Arguably the BigBad of the entire series, as it is revealed that [[spoiler:he is behind HARP]], and plans to kill off all of the Chosen and Rejected. His reasons for doing so are not explored until later in the series.
**The Joker[[note]]The Brave New World one. This is going to get really annoying….[[/note]]
**Mindwurm in Tech Adventures.
*BreakoutCharacter: Charlie, according to a few reviews left on the original Brave New World, expressing disappointment when she wasn’t featured in the story. This led to Charlie being featured more prominently in the story in later arcs.
*BreakTheCutie: Tim is captured by The Benefactor, [[spoiler:given superpowers]], and forced to toughen up.
*CharacterDevelopment: Basically everyone, as every Chosen [[spoiler:and some Rejected]] has to reconcile their new sex with their old memories. Most characters in the series go through at least a little character development.
**Charlie: forced to deal with the estrangement from her mother, and later, [[spoiler:the death of her father.]] Changed a lot directly as a result of her kidnapping and torture by [[spoiler:The Joker]]. She even makes Knight reconsider some of his philosophies when she talks to him about it.
**Sasha: Going from an invalid to a Chosen that's relatively high on the power scale.
***Later in the series, he is forced to deal with his many mental issues.
*ChekovsGun: Tim. [[spoiler:After he’s given ''all of The Benefactor’s powers'', we expect to see them used.]]
*TheChessmaster: The Joker. [[spoiler:He successfully manipulates HARP into instigating much of the Pine Ridge Riots. They didn't find out until after. When he told them. For the joke.]]
*ContinuityLockout: Unless you’ve read a lot of the series, there are many references and [[{{ContinuityNod}} Continuity Nods]] that you simply won’t get. Impressive, as it reached this status within a year. When talking about it to other fans, avoiding spoilers gets...interesting….
*ContinuityNod: All the time. Many characters reference things that have happened earlier in the series. This is one of the primary reasons for the progressively worsening ContinuityLockout.
**In Swarm Rising, we pick up a fragment of a thought from someone expressing relief that someone wasn’t “as bad as Tech.” Even though Tech is halfway around the world from the events of Swarm Rising.
*CoolSword: Allie[[note]]Brewing Storm[[/note]] can make sword out of ice. Literally, a ''cool'' sword.
*DarkerAndEdgier: Tech Adventures is considerably darker and more horrific than any other story in the series by a long shot.[[note]]A_Kent, the writer of Tech Adventures, is so well known for this that another writer challenged him to write a story that was happy. He almost couldn’t do it.[[/note]].
**There are a couple arcs in Brave New World that fit this trope, specifically, the ''Across the River'' arc, although WordOfGod states that there will be more.
*DeadpanSnarker: Charlie[[note]]practically a clone of Spider-Man[[/note]] fits this to a “T”.
**Elliot from Shining Light also seems to be one.
*EvilCounterpart: The Rejected to the Chosen, with the Rejected almost always being evil, unstable, and more powerful forms of Chosen.
*EvilOldFolks: The Benefactor is almost literally older than time. As he looks like he’s in his fourties, he also falls into ReallySevenHundredYearsOld.
*FantasticRacism: HARP is extremely prejudiced against Powers. [[spoiler:Though not without reason, as the rise of Chosen and Rejected eventually led to the annihilation of East City]]. However, they were prejudiced before this, so they definitely fall into this trope.
*FollowTheLeader: The BraveNewWorldUniverse has been influenced by ''many'' different {{Superhero}} stories. It has also taken inspiration from[[note]]ripped off[[/note]] everything from {{Manga}} to VideoGames to traditional {{Literature}}.
**Charlie is basically SpiderMan with boobs. The Joker is a direct lift of TheJoker. It’s literally the ''exact same character''. Knight is ''almost'' a direct lift of {{Batman}}, sans the {{Angst}}. Guardian is Superman sans many of his {{Story Breaker Power}}s…. There are so many examples that it’s almost a poorly disguised [[{{FanFiction}} fan-fic]].
*GreenLanternRing: Shining Light’s Brenda literally has one of these. Of course, hers is blue. However, in her case, it only serves to focus her powers, instead of being the source of them.
*HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Sasha from Tech Adventures. Granted, if it had ended any other way, the fans (and a few of the other writers) would have thrown a fit.]]
*HighVoltageDeath: Korra has electrical powers, and can use them to suck the bioelectricity out of people. ArtisticLicenseBiology is in play here.
**Elizabeth from Old Friends also has electricity powers, and uses them quite effectively to kill zombies in the introductory arc of the story.
*{{Homage}}: Literally everywhere. To the point that it’s almost a FanFiction.
*InevitableMutualBetrayal: The BitCharacter Cloak is planning to betray his boss, The Benefactor. He gets beaten to the punch.
*InhumanlyBeautifulRace: The Choosers and Rejectors who pick the Chosen and Rejected are described as being extremely beautiful. It is also obvious to everyone who sees one, that they aren’t human. This may have something to do with the fact that they float, but sometimes, they just look off.
*LetNoCrisisGoToWaste: If an event wasn’t planned by [[spoiler:The Benefactor]], it usually factors into his plans anyway by damaging the Chosen’s public reputation, and turning the public against them.
*LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: The original Brave New World story introduced more characters than any two of the subsequent stories combined. There are almost too many characters too keep track of.[[note]]and this is after less than a year[[/note]]
*TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:The Benefactor]] is the true man behind HARP. In Tech Adventures, [[spoiler:The Joker]] supplied weapons and equipment to [[spoiler:HARP]].
*MasterSwordsman: The Benefactor is confirmed through WordOfGod to be good with swords. Allie also wields her ice sword with great skill.
*MiniMecha: Penelope Banter’s Titan armor, in addition to it’s uncanny resemblance to IronMan’s Hulk Buster armor, is a good example.
**We also have evidence in a Swarm Rising intermission that Abaddon Industries is creating a MiniMecha of their very own.
*MoodWhiplash: The individual stories have very differing moods, with Tech Adventures being almost outrageously dark, and Shining Light being almost the exact opposite. Brave New World has a tendency to flip-flop[[note]]generally depending on how prevalent a part Charlie plays in the arc[[/note]]
*MugglesDoItBetter: This may be a world populated by a lot of superpowered individuals, but Knight holds his own in a fight as well as Guardian. Additionally, The Joker is possibly the evillest villain in the entire series, all without powers.
*MyGreatestFailure: Knight holding himself responsible for [[spoiler:Seeker]]’s fate in the Across the River arc.[[note]]even though he really couldn’t have done anything to prevent it[[/note]]
*NebulousEvilOrganization: HARP. Nominally organized, it’s more of an evil cult than an organization, it has chapters all over the globe.
**Also, the unnamed organization in Tech Adventures, as their repeated attempts to capture Tech are implied to be a part of their [[{{ThePlan}} evil plan]][[spoiler:Confirmed, when Joanna’s forces capture Tech, take his powers, copy them into their soldiers, and attempt to take over Africa]].
*{{Necromancer}}: Moros from Old Friends. In addition to bringing super-zombies with him to break into a secret lab, he spread a zombie virus, raised a monster from the dead, healed a character by infusing them with life energy, and made explosive zombies to destroy all traces of his presence at the lab. [[note]]he did all of this in the same chapter, without really breaking a sweat. This makes him one of the most powerful characters in the series[[/note]]
*NoNameGiven: ''Many'' characters:
**In Brave New World, Cloak, The Joker, The Cigarette Smoking Man (no, not ''[[{{IThoughtItMeant}} that one]]'') and The Benefactor
**In Tech Adventures, Mindwurm, a moniker given to him by his subordinates.
**In Swarm Rising, Smoke and Conjurer.
**In Brewing Storm, Venus, Helios, and The Executioner
*PsychicPowers: Mindwurm invades the minds of many Chosen, changing him as he sees fit. It’s part of the reason that he’s so scary.
*PsychologicalTormentZone: About half of Tech Adventures has some form of this. Pyschological horror plays a big part in the story, [[spoiler: with one of the biggest battles taking place ''in Sasha’s mind''.]]
*RandomlyGifted: The Chosen and Rejected are picked seemingly at random.
*RedShirt: A few Chosen in Tech Adventures were created solely to be killed off, sometimes in the same chapter.
*ResearchInc: Heal-All, Abaddon Industries, Banter Industries, and Brand Industries.[[note]]there is apparently a lot of industrious research going on[[/note]]
*ScrapbookStory: The entire Literature/BraveNewWorldUniverse, as everything happening in each story feeds into the plot.
**Sometimes before certain stories even go up. For example, in-universe, Old Friends takes place about a month and a half after The Big Fight, but was posted before The Big Fight arc went up. However, this didn’t stop it from [[{{ContinuityNod}} referencing]] stuff that happened in The Big Fight.
*{{Seer}}: One of Angel’s main powers is that she can see the future. This becomes a minor plot point when it is revealed that [[spoiler:her future sight has gone on the fritz]].
*SwitchingPOV: All of the stories to some degree, but anything with Hikaro as a writer[[note]]Brave New World, Mind Games, and Old Friends[[/note]] is particularly prone to it.
**Brewing Storm actually averted this one for the most part, with very few switches.
*TemptingFate: Lampshaded when Moros congratulates himself for how well his plan is going, then immediately kicks himself for having the thought. It doesn’t actually result in anything going wrong.
*TragicHero: Sasha from Tech Adventures. The entire story is about how he gets into progressively worse and worse situations, with many of the other characters even lampshading how much his situation sucks. [[spoiler:It gets to the point that he has a HeroicSacrifice in the conclusion of the story. After he has nearly had one a few times before]].
*TwoLinesNoWaiting: Happens in over half of the stories, with only Shining Light, Brewing Storm, and Ride the Whirlwind averting this.
