* HumanSubspecies: In addition to humans, there are various other species around which were created from humans by way of genetic engineering. These include SpaceElves, a [[WolfMan wolf-like species]] (with {{Kitsune}} as a sub-species), [[OurAngelsAreDifferent an angel-like species]], a [[OurDemonsAreDifferent demon-like species]], a [[DraconicHumanoid dragon-like species]], and others. Actual aliens [[AbsentAliens don't appear to be around]]. There's [[FantasticRacism bigotry around]], not all of it in one direction.

He tones this attitude down a bit in ''Reborn''; while he still goes around calling non-humans insulting names, he will give credit where credit is due. The way he is written in that game also seems closer to an SurroundedByIdiots attitude than outright distaste for everyone of the species involved.

''Rising Angels: Reborn'' is the first game, [[FreewareGames available for free]]. It focuses on on Major Natalie Puccile of Katajion Space Force as she takes up a new assignment. Her job title is Special Investigations and Tactics Officer (SITO), which means that although she doesn't command the ship she's assigned to (and has a lower rank than the person who does), she's responsible for the special mission its being sent on — something which leaves a certain ambiguity as to who's actually in charge. The crew is far from harmonious, the thing she's being sent after is rather dangerous, and there's probably a traitor aboard. And even if she finds what she's looking for, she has to decide what to with it.

!!The series provides examples of:

* AbsentAliens: There are a variety of species around, but they're [[HumanSubspecies derived from humans]], not alien life.
* EncyclopediaExposita: Short database entries on various basic elements of the setting (countries and species, mainly) are available to players.
* FantasticRacism: There is prejudice between humans and the various HumanSubspecies. The in-game database indicates that it can be in both directions, but most of what we see is from humans. One character in particular, Sol Hackett, is particularly bad in this respect, which causes tension between him and the protagonist — they're old friends, but Natalie wants him to dial it back. Sol does turn out to care about the non-human members of his crew, but he still doesn't stop using FantasticSlurs.
* FeudalFuture: This appears to be the case for the Raltin Empire, but not for the other named countries. Even though democracies are said to be relatively rare, it seems that for non-democracies to go full feudal isn't the norm.
* HumanSubspecies: In addition to humans, there are various other species around which were created from humans by way of genetic engineering. These include a SpaceElves, a [[PettingZooPeople wolf-like species]] (with {{Kitsune}} as a sub-species), [[OurAngelsAreDifferent an angel-like species]], a [[OurDemonsAreDifferent demon-like species]], and others. Actual aliens [[AbsentAliens don't appear to be around]]. There's [[FantasticRacism bigotry around]], not all of it in one direction.
* TheKlutz: Zuri, the ship's security officer, has a reputation for accidentally breaking things. This is a plot point, because when a critical item gets destroyed and she had access to it, she's accused of breaking that too. [[spoiler:She didn't — it was sabotage by someone else.]]
* MultipleEndings: Choices made in ''Reborn'' add up, with the results not necessarily being obvious until the end. There is, however, a "true ending" which the sequel will follow on from.
* TheMutiny: The conflicting claims to authority of Commander Rasoona (in charge of the ship) and Major Puccile (lower in rank, but in charge of the mission that the ship is on) can, depending on choices, result in disagreement as to who gets to make a certain crucial decision. If it comes to that, [[spoiler:Major Puccile removes Commander Rasoona from her post]] — which is legal, but not accepted. This results in [[spoiler:an unsuccessful attempt to regain control in which Rasoona is killed]].
* ReassignedToAntarctica: At the start of the game, Natalie has just returned from a long solitary posting to a listening post in a swamp. She didn't like it at all, and is very glad to be back doing "real" work on a refreshingly solid, metallic ship. She considers it an injustice that she got sent there when "inferior" classmates got better assignments (and often failed at them).
* SpaceElves: Most of the species [[HumanSubspecies derived from humans]] are known by invented names, but there are exceptions, and Elves are one of them. They seem to have a typical [[OurElvesAreBetter belief in their superiority]], too
* {{Pride}}: Natalie's problem in ''Reborn''.
