* PolitenessJudo: Eloy manages to get past a door-guarding gargoyle by asking nicely (and getting a good persuasion roll).

** The pirate lords are typically depicted as RetiredMonsters who react strongly when on of them is slighted, the seeming exception to this is Captain Rumblood. The reason? He uses orphaned children for his crew, leading to them being put into multiple dangerous situations [[spoiler: like vampire experiments]], meaning that while the others may find him useful, they certinly don’t mind him being punished by the Navy.

* HumiliationConga: The vampire paladin a.k.a. "Johnny Dark Souls." First, the Natural One-ders find out he's alive and not just a suspended corpse when Ezra accidently sets him on fire with a stray fireball. Then, right as his boss fight is about to begin he: 1.slips on some ball bearings Ezra threw down, landing flat on his back, 2.looses his grip on his weapon (a 10ft burning cross, which flies into the air, spins around, lands on him, and smashes him through the floor, 3.sinks to the bottom of the ocean, and finally 4.torn to pieces by a school of blood-hungry mako sharks. All without getting a single hit in.

Nick 'Creator/{{Lanipator}}' Landis, Grant 'Master Wuggles' Smith and Ben 'Creator/{{hbi2k}}' Creighton play as Wake the Mermish monk (and later Dagon, the fallen aasimar warlock), Ezra the half-elf rogue, and Eloy the donkey-centaur bard, a [[RagtagBunchOfMisfits mismatched trio]] seeking to make their fortunes, settle a few scores, and put on a good show along the way. Their home is La Cirranus, a realm of magic and seafaring adventure in conflict between the Navy, a militaristic faction that relies on overwhelming magical superiority, and the Pirates, who resist the navy's rampant disregard for the realm's ecology.

* RealityEnsues: Pops up from time to time

** The player character antics, while amusing to the players and the audience, can end up being a lot less fun for the characters in universe, most noticeable with Wake, who ends up alienating several of his fellow crew mates, with several of his decisions.
** Speaking of Wake, while he was trained as a monk, his trauma, and lack of complete training, ends up giving him a personality that heavily contrasts what a monk should be like [[spoiler: when he tries to avenge the death of Gulfer, by torturing the people that he believed kill’d him (up to and including cannablism) he ends up losing some of his monk abilities for a bit, due to his personality not being compatible with his class. This ends up being one of the reason he decides to stay at the monastery to retrain.]]
** Unlike most D&D campaigns, ressuraction magic is almost non existent. This ends up allowing people who can bring back the dead to either manipulate many people due to the promise to resurrect loved ones, or they’ll end up being hunt down in order to figure out how to replicate it.
** The pirate lords, are typically decoicted as RetiredMonsters who react strongly when on of them is slighted, the seeming exception to this is Captain Rumblood. The reason? He uses orphaned children for his crew, leading to them being put into multiple dangerous situations [[spoiler: like vampire experiments]] meaning that while the others may find him useful, they certinlly don’t mind him being punished by the Navey.

* InsistentTerminology: The party are privateers, not pirates, and are keen to point this out should it be forgotten, because they're not officially on the side of any major faction, and thus not opposed to them either.

* WhamEpisode: A couple being made here or there, but by far the biggest one in the story so far is Chapter 3, Episode 11. [[spoiler:After fighting a group of vampires, the crew meets up with the Grand Design to discuss the problem and Wake comes face-to-face with who he thinks is the one who razed his village, and the exchange culminates in Wake '''leaving the party''' at the very end of the session.]]

* ToadLicking: Parodied with Yt, a Fairy-dragon who looks like a winged poison frog. In the finale of Chapter 2, the crew discover he secretes a powerful hallucinogen, which Wake takes advantage of to trigger a VisionQuest.

* MirrorMatch: The Trial of Wills in the Unwitnessed Kingdom takes this form, creating spectral copies of the party members which initially mirror their every action. As the copies are dispatched, the remainders become
larger while also gaining independence.

* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: This is enforced in Chapter 1, as the Abyssal threat has the pirate town of Jahal Cove on lockdown with no sailor (legitimate or otherwise) able to ply their trade. The town leaders are retired and not up to piratical activities anyway, [[spoiler: until the end of Chapter 1 when they agree to leave the Cove as part of a deal with the Navy]].

* RoaringRampageOfReveng: Wake is driven to this after [[spoiler: Gulfur is killed, seemingly by tribal frog people]], though he's prevented from doing so, first by their paralyzing poison, then by Ezra having become their king and trying to keep the situation from becoming too heated. In the end, [[spoiler: he maims and tortures an innocent frog man who he misidentifies as the culprit, an act which destabilizes his moral alignment and triggers a vision that warns of the dangers of giving in to his rage.]]

Their home is Rydin, a realm of magic and seafaring adventure in conflict between the Navy, a militaristic faction that relies on overwhelming magical superiority, and the Pirates, who resist the navy's rampant disregard for the realm's ecology.

* BodyHorror: Zito's descriptions of undead creatures feature this in spades, starting with the Abyssals, which are corpses possessed by necrotic tumors that can grow into random heads. Zombies are skeletons with a thin veneer of skin over their faces, which pops like a balloon when they're disturbed. Vennin Island features undead deer whose skin pulls back from their mouths when threatened, revealing bony spikes, and when killed a skeleton of their original non-deer bodies drops out of their middle.

* PsychicBlockDefense: When Butters first tries to converse with his guard, the guy starts listening to a ''Music/{{Toto}}'' playlist, moving on to ''Music/{{ACDC}}'', to drown out the cat's speech. Although he approves of the man's taste in music, he still manages to control him and help him escape.

* {{Troperrific}}: The central idea of the episode is to run with all of the cheesy 80s and 90s cartoon tropes the players and DM can possibly invoke.
