* ArcherArchetype: Discussed by the two elves, who are woodsmen and consider archery definitely their thing. Although trying to find a hipper name for it isn't very successful; Pace's idea of "String" doesn't sound that convincing.

* {{Irony}}: The roles given to Guillaume Briat and Bô Gaultier de Kermoal. In ''Kaamelott'', they respectively play a buffoonish and moronic king and a mook whose only lines are screaming. Here, their characters are probably the smartest and most eloquent of the druid assembly.

* GrammarCorrectionGag: Throughout the episode "Le Rassemblement de corbeaux", the characters (most prominently Ferrigno the orc) keep reminding the others that their council is "the Assembly of ''the'' Raven", not "the Assembly of Ravens", as the latter would implies they call themselves ravens, which they don't.

''Brocéliande'' is a web series of fan videos based on ''Series/{{Kaamelott}}'', started in 2021.

Created and written by Youri Gone and hosted on his Website/YouTube channel [[https://www.youtube.com/c/CapsulPop Capsul Pop]], it is played by various French youtubers -- notably Benjamin "WebVideo/{{Benzaie}}" Daniel and Sébastien Rassiat (Seb from ''WebVideo/JoueurDuGrenier'') -- as well as a couple of genuine actors from ''Kaamelott'' (but not in the same roles).

The series depicts the fey denizens of the enchanted forest of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broc%C3%A9liande Brocéliande]] as they come into conflict with Myth/KingArthur's court. Each episode refers to a specific episode of ''Kaamelott'' season 1 or 2, showing what happened before, after or off-screen, from the viewpoint of the other side.

!!''Brocéliance'' provides examples of:

* ActorAllusion: Seb's druid character is called "Maître Bien-Assez". This is a nod to his frequent role as "David Goodenough" on ''Joueur du Grenier''.
* ArcherArchetype: Discussed by the two elves, who are woodsmen and consider archery definitely their thing. Although trying to find a more hip name for it isn't very successful; Pace's idea of "String" doesn't sound that convincing.
* BaitAndSwitch: During a battle, Ziff the redcap screams a BigNo when an orc by his side is killed by an arrow. When Ferrigno tells him to be strong and that he died with dignity, Ziff retorts he doesn't care about that, the dead orc was owing him money!
* DeathOfTheOldGods: The main source of conflict between Brocéliande and Kaamelott is Arthur introducing the One God religion to Britain, which the druids and witches oppose.
* GrammarCorrectionGag: Throughout the episode "Le Rassemblement de corbeaux", the characters (most prominently Ferrigno the orc) keep reminding the others that their council is "the Assembly of ''the'' Raven", not "the Assembly of Ravens", as the latter would imply they call themselves ravens, which they don't.
* TheLostWoods: The setting of the series, the mystical forest of Brocéliande, home to elves, korrigans and other feys, and refugee of druids, witches and others opposing the new order of King Arthur and the Grail Quest.
* NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering: Well, being based in ''Kaamelott'', where this trope is omnipresent, it shouldn't be a big surprise that the druid assembly spend most of their time bickering (when not busy drinking).
* ParodyAssistance: A couple of minor ''Kaamelott'' actors play roles in ''Brocéliande'', notably Guillaume Briat (the Burgund King) and Bô Gaultier de Kermoal (Attila's bodyguard), although they don't reprise their roles from the series.
* PointyEars: Sported by the elves and the redcap. The prosthetic ears are the only hint they are elves, truly.
* SympatheticMagic: The coven of witches suggest they'd obtain a personnal item from Merlin so that they'd cast a spell on him through it. Master de Kermoal points out they already have a spy at Merlin's lab, but it is so much in disarray that it's hard to find anything useful. Then the elves show a shark tooth they'd stolen in the lab.
* TooManyHalves: Blööm claims that Merlin is "half-druid, half-human, half-sorcerer, half-dragon". He's not exactly well-informed, missing out the canonical half-demon part.
