* AllMythsAreTrue - Savlamar's works run on this. The worlds are built on stories; all it takes is understanding, positioning, and strength of will.

** ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve - That being said, there are certain things that exist ''without'' anyone particularly putting beilief into it. [[EldritchAbomination These things tend to be the least friendly.]]
* BadassLongcoat - Her characters tend to wear these. [[AuthorAppeal They aren't the only ones.]]
* CardCarryingVillain - A few of her characters claim to be these. [[SubvertedTrope Some of them are.]]
* {{Magick}} - She was taught the difference between "stage magic" and natural magic by two of her writing mentors. She uses the "k" to differentiate between the two, as both typically exist in her worlds.
* MagnificentBastard - Her favorite type of character. She writes a few of these (arguably).
* UsefulNotes/NewOrleans - Very frequently the setting of Sav's works. Furthermore:
** TheBigEasy - The works make use of all of New Orleans and even a bit of the surrounding areas. The one time anything like a "swamp" is mentioned, it's actually the barrier islands in the Mississippi Delta and is explicitly stated to be very far from the city itself. [[spoiler:This appearance is in "Bloodlines."]]
** ItsAlwaysMardiGrasInNewOrleans - Averted ''hard''. Not one story she has written so far has involved Mardi Gras. ''Life Of a Raindrop'' does involve a jazz funeral and second line so far, and because it takes place over the span of a year or so, [[spoiler:more if you count the flashbacks]], it will most likely cover Mardi Gras a bit.
** SouthernGothic - There are various creatures and an overall sense of [[DarkerAndEdgier Dark and Edgy]], but the setting itself is not depicted as Gothic. At most times it's perfectly "normal," aside from all the non-human stuff living there.
* OurAngelsAreDifferent - And how. There's the KnightTemplar, the [[BlueAndOrangeMorality unpredictable]] MagnificentBastard, the [[AnythingThatMoves nondiscerning]] HealingHands, and the PyroManiac. ''And those are just the archangels.''
* StuffBlowingUp - Certainly not the Michael Bay of literature (or Dan Brown), but things do tend to explode every once in a while.

* {{Asexual}} - Specifically, demisexual. They do exist!
* BadassLongcoat - Has a thinner denim jacket for the fall and spring and a black longcoat for the winter. During the summer, alas, she goes without.
* EmbarrassingFirstName / DoNotCallMePaul - She considers her birth name immature and embarrassing, and has repeatedly asked people not to call her it, to the point that she no longer tells people what it is. Serves as a minor BerserkButton.
* IHaveManyNames - Has a different username for most sites she's on. See above for part of why she doesn't just use her real name.
* OneSteveLimit - Very literal aversion. There are four men named "Steve" in her life, to varying degrees.
* SanitySlippage - Self-admittedly shows signs of this, especially following the events of the disastrous year 2015. Possibly invoked, as it is partially voluntary.
* SuffersNewbiesPoorly - Made a name for herself in certain corners of the Internet for this. Discussed and then zigzagged after she was appointed admin of a large roleplay site.

* StuffBlowingUp - Certainly not the Michael Bay of literature (or Dan Brown), but things do tend to explode every once in a while.
** Sav's Law of Conserving Explosions: If something explodes in a story, and the explosion could be taken out of the story with zero change to the plot at all, the explosion is likely there to serve another purpose, most likely a fictional TakeThat or {{Revenge}}. Examples appear in ''Sovereign'' and "Primetime"; an aversion appears in "Fiat Lux" (that explosion is vital to the plot).

A TV Tropes visitor since 2009, Savlamar has been writing online for [=RPGs=] since 2008, and as a novelist for much longer than that. She has written nine novels, two novellas, and several short stories, and is in the process of writing many more of each. She enjoys exploring different tropes and experimenting with them, and also keeping up with her favorite shows and movies via the 'Media' pages.
