* ActionGirl: Livia Barlow is Princess Irina's guard for a reason, though Irina can have moments in later stories.

* BoundAndGagged: If a character needs to tie someone up, rope will always be available, along with anything to make a convenient gag.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Prince Balin, who is Princess Irina's lover[[note]]or husband; the text goes either way[[/note]], appears in the first adventure, but isn't mentioned after that.
* ColdBloodedTorture: When Duchess Isobel Von Dominax captures Irina, she does everything short of making the princess bleed, partly to get Irina out of the way so she can be queen, and to punish Irina for apparently taking away the man she wanted.
* CoversAlwaysLie: The cover for "Captives of the Pirates Island" shows Irina walking the plank of a pirate ship, and then getting gobbled up by a shark. In the actual story, Irina is just held on the ship as it travels to the Duchess's castle.
* DamselInDistress: Irina gets captured at least three times in the story.
* {{Dominatrix}}: Everyo woman, who isn't a slave, is this to some degree.
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: Princess Irina is one of our heroes, the rule of Boundaria.

* OfCorsetsSexy: Though full body suits seem to be more common than corsets, plenty still appear, particularly Irina's wardrobe.

* PimpedOutCape: A fur-trimmed cape is the most common luxury among the BlueBlood and RoyalBlood, even when they are wearing bdsm gear, or little else. Even Livia can't resist taking one for herself when she's helping Irina again escape from the Duchess's castle.
* PrettyInMink:
** As noted, fur trimmed capes are a frequent luxury.
** Isobel also has a fur hat and fur-trimmed robe.
** Irina has the most furs. Not only does she have several ermine-trimmed capes, but most of her corsets, gloves, and boots are trimmed with ermine. She also has an ermine-lined ShowgirlSkirt when she's doing ceremonial duties.
* PrincessesRule: Irina is still the princess of Boundaria, despite it being a kingdom, and her rivals wanting to become queen themselves.
* SlaveBrand: The pirate captain is an escaped slave. Irina knows this when she sees her kingdom's mark on the captain's skin.
* SpyCatsuit: These are more common than corsets in the story.
