History VideoGame / Aveyond

* TheMagicGoesAway: The Oracle in ''Aveyond 2'' tells that the land of Aveyond is dying as many people are forgetting about it. When the alleged Aveyond is seen in that game, the place was gray and full of fog.

* WhiteHairedPrettyGirl: Uma, Aveyond 3, and possibly Iya from Aveyond 2.

'''This game series contains examples of: '''

* AdorableEvilMinions: [[CuteMonsterGirl Darklings]].
* AntiAntiChrist: Mel. [[spoiler: She's the one who was prophesied to take over the world and lead it into darkness. ]]
* AntiHero: Mel, sort of, as she starts out as a shameless thief. [[spoiler:And ends off as a pretty shameless spy too. And in the end, it turns out that she's the descendant of Mordred Darkthrop who is one of those prophesied to take over the world and lead it into darkness. Poor Mel. VillainProtagonist in the making. [[ScrewDestiny Or maybe not.]] ]]

* GreenEyedRedHead: Talia Maurva.

* RagsToRoyalty: This happens to Devin between ''Ahriman's Prophecy'' and ''Aveyond 1'' Literature/{{Cinderella}} style. Also for [[spoiler:Rhen is sort of a SleepingBeauty example, but without the sleeping part when she finds out she's the long lost princess of Thais]].

* HotChickWithASword: Rhen Darzon.

* TheMasochismTango: Galahad and Te'ijal. To elaborate, he was a LawfulGood borderline KnightTemplar who hated everything dark. She's a HeroicSociopath [[OurVampiresAreDifferent vampire]]. She stole his soul, making him her slave, tricked him into marrying her, and turned him into a vampire. They've been married for centuries as of ''Aveyond 3'', and he still calls her spawn of evil and tries escape and get himself killed periodically. [[spoiler:When they're both turned human in The Lost Orb, Te'ijal is unhappy that Galahad no longer uses the endearment "spawn of evil" for her.]]

* RedHerringTwist: In ''Aveyond 3: The Lost Orb'', Spook, the thief who seems to like Mel, is [[spoiler:actually Gyendal in disguise]].

* CoupDeGraceCutsene: Aveyond 1, against Ahriman.

''Aveyond 3'', after the first 2 chapters... goes insane. Somehow there's an ancient prophecy involved somewhere and the villain turns out to be... Mel herself?

* ClicheStorm: Occasionally subverted and lampshaded here and there. YMMV, but possibly the reason VideoGame/{{Aveyond}} is a rather obscure series.

* ItsShortSoItSucks: Fans complained about how short the first chapter of ''Aveyond 3'' despite the fact that it was just half of a game and the second chapter wasn't even released yet.

* {{Narm}}: Several scenes throughout the series, especially anything with [[LargeHam Ahriman]] in it:
-->'''Ahriman''': It shall be done. Show this paltry world the power of the daevas!
** It gets better in Aveyond 3, though.
*** Not really. Gyendal isn't much better than Ahriman. And he repeats his "People of darkness, we have been oppressed by the light for too long. Let us band together and rise against the light!" speech with very similar wording in Lord of Twilight and The Darkthrop Prophecy.
-->'''In LOT''': Fellow vampires, the time has come to take the Overworld as our own. Too long have humans, our ''dinner'', ruled that land.
-->'''In TDP''': Followers of darkness, too long have we been forced to live in the shadow of light. It is time for us to rise and rule the land above!

* BettyAndVeronica: ''Aveyond 3'' ups the ante by having three major love interests for Edward: MysticalWaif Stella (Betty), RichBitch Lydia (Veronica), and AntiHero Mel (Betty compared to Lydia, Veronica compared to Stella). He even has a [[ThirdOptionLoveInterest Fourth Option Love Interest]] if he doesn't successfully propose to any of the main love interests; his mother [[ArrangedMarriage arranges a marriage]] to [[spoiler:Orc princess Belf]].

* [=~Everything's Nuttier With Squirrels~=]: Militant squirrels appear in every game so far.

* StaffChick: Particularly Talia Maurva from ''Ahriman's Prophecy'', while Devin uses the sword. Iya Tiki from Aveyond 2 as well as Stella and Lydia Rupert from Aveyond 3: Gates of Night also fit into this trope. June from Aveyond 3: The Lost Orb fit in as well, though she's more of a little girl.

* RagsToRoyalty: This happens to Devin between ''Ahriman's Prophecy'' and ''Aveyond 1'' {{Cinderella}} style. Also for [[spoiler:Rhen is sort of a SleepingBeauty example, but without the sleeping part when she finds out she's the long lost princess of Thais]].

*** Not really. Gyendal isn't much better than Ahriman. He repeats his "People of darkness, we have been oppressed by the light for too long. Let us band together and rise against the light!" speech with nearly the exact same wording in Lord of Twilight and The Darkthrop Prophecy.

* ClicheStorm: Occasionally subverted and lampshaded here and there. YMMV, but possibly the reason {{Aveyond}} is a rather obscure series.
