* OurWormholesAreDifferent: FTL travel is handled by temporarily linking artifically constructed wormholes to one another across great interstellar distances. The tlecians keep the technology of how to do this top secret.
* PortalNetwork: Artificially constructed, inter-linked gates connect each Coalition solar system to one another. Somewhat atypically, however, the gates are adjustable and can link with any other gate in existence provided they know the exact coordinates of the other. This isn't allowed, however, as a fail safe to prevent the denazra from spreading to everyone settled solar system in a matter of minutes.

Added DiffLines:

* ApocalypseHow: This universe is absolutely full of different subsets of this trope. Dozens of planets have been cleansed of all native life and the denazra potentially represent a threat to all known organic life in the galaxy.


Added DiffLines:

* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: This has happened again and again in the Denazra-verse. The protagonists are mostly focused on stopping the next denazra invasion of the planet [[InsectoidAliens Mrava]], but it is the likely, eventual fate of all the worlds in the Coalition. [[spoiler: The protagonists are themselves eventually complicit in the destruction of Corifan.]]
* FasterThanLightTravel: Played straight with the [[PortalNetwork gate network]], but also somewhat averted due to the fact that all other commonly mentioned types of FTL are impossible. The tlecians typically fly gates to potential member species' over the course of dozens or even hundreds of years.


Added DiffLines:

* HostileTerraforming: The modus operandi of the denazra. They arrive in a system, eradicate any opposition, and then proceed to terraform any suitable planets to an ammonia based atmosphere. Nobody is entirely sure why they are doing this.
* OurWormholesAreDifferent: FTL travel is handled by temporarily linking artifically constructed wormholes to one another across great interstellar distances. The tlecians keep the technology of how to do this top secret.
* PortalNetwork: Artificially constructed, inter-linked gates connect each Coalition solar system to one another.

This isn't allowed, however, as a fail safe to prevent the denazra from spreading to everyone settled solar system in a matter of minutes.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: The Coalition, especially the tlecians, believe they're this. The truth may be a bit more muddled.
* RobotWar: The denazra are a race of incredibly powerful, self-replicating machines that are slowly spreading throughout the galaxy and annihilating every species they encounter over the span of hundreds and maybe even thousands of years.


Added DiffLines:

*WellIntentionedExtremist: The criminals being tracked down by the protagonists act like they're playing this trope straight. We shall see...

* TheBigGuy: QUINCY is physically formidable, has military training, has the most and most powerful weapons available to him, and is only concerned with killing the paranormal, not learning about it.


Added DiffLines:

* CleanupCrew: QUICK's main purpose on the squad is to clean up incriminating evidence, be it paranormal artifacts or the mangled bodies those artifacts affected. He also doubles as the driver for the team, as he keeps most of his equipment in his [[VanInBlack unmarked panel van]].


Added DiffLines:

* CombatMedic: QUINNS is a former Army medic now working for the CDC. He patches the others up, but isn't above taking the guns out when he needs to.


Added DiffLines:

* TheLeader: PATRICK writes up the mission briefings before going into the field, disseminates objectives and tasks to the other members, and is generally the one who gives the orders.


Added DiffLines:

* TheSmartGuy: PHILLIPS varies between this and NaiveNewcomer. He is incredibly knowledgeable on the paranormal, having spent most of his life as a researcher, but has very little experience in the field. He's still the one [[TheLeader PATRICK]] looks to when the team needs to know what something is or does.
* TheSneakyGuy: PARKER's skill set relies heavily on stealth and infiltration. On more than one occasion, he is the one designated to tail suspects. He's the only one who can pick locks, and when he can manage it, his first instinct in a dangerous situation is to hide.

* TabletopGame/DeltaGreen: The story uses the delta green beta as its rules book, and the universe, especially the structure of The Detachment itself, is heavily inspired by the Delta Green source material.

** The entire crew exhibits this behavior often, as well. They constantly are checking for tails, making sure their hotel rooms aren't bugged, and are actively suspicious of almost every person they encounter out in the field. With an enemy who can summon demons to possess young girls, make an entire town disappear, and who knows enough to send an attempted assassin after the heroes, they aren't wrong to check for these things.

Added DiffLines:

* ProperlyParanoid: The Detachment instills this type of mindset into its operatives, and the protagonists are no exception. Cell leader PATRICK makes sure that his teammates are really themselves every time he meets them again by spraying them with dangerous chemicals that have the added benefit of showcasing whether or not someone has been affected by the paranormal.

* TheAlliance: The Coalition is a collection of different species that have joined together to try and stop the overwhelming advance of the denazra over a period of hundreds of years. The bureaucracy has gotten so used to losing, however, that they may have turned into a NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering.
