-->'''Karla''': ''(looks up at the sky)'' “Too bright!”

Added DiffLines:

*BlindedByTheSun: Played with:
** Karla (and other sarbling trolls) have very light sensitive eyes, to the point where she hurts her eyes just from looking at ''clouds'' (rather than the sun itself) on a lightly rainy day without her dark mask on.
** Hyperion, a god of light, is able to put down rune magic for a spell that when activated, creates a ball of light that effectively functions as a miniature sun, and appropriately anyone who does ''not'' cover their eyes while it’s active find themselves in a great deal of pain, with a hard time seeing things properly.

*LuredIntoATrap: [[spoiler: Faunza]] lures [[spoiler: the group]] to the go-to area for offing people who are looking into the [[spoiler: dragon egg smuggling operation in the area she is a part of.]]

Added DiffLines:

*WeaponGripFailure: There are a few times when a character’s weapon gets wrenched out of their hands during a fight:
** Aquazog disarms Daryl with his pole arm, although Flamel quickly slides the sword back to him.
** Doug looses his grip on his bladewheel when he gets dragged away by a spider-like creature.
** Skye’s mace goes flying when she hits a fast spinning metal bladewheel, and her shock allows a skeleton to sneak up behind her with a net.

Added DiffLines:

*FantasyPantheon: An integral part of the premise, as the story primarily follows the champions of the Hyperia Pantheon deities, [[PhysicalGod Hyperion and Leilusa]]. Various other Pantheons and individual gods and goddesses exist as well, with the deities often playing the role of MissionControl for their respective champions.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
None

Added DiffLines:

*DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Leilusa and Hyperion sometimes forget that they are PhysicalGods from another realm of existence who are much stronger than the mortals who work for them. [[PlayedForLaughs Thankfully]] it just leads to occasional {{Slapstick}} humor.

None

Added DiffLines:

*ExpressiveAccessory: A very subtle example with Mr.X and Megalo. Their faces are covered by masks, and the clothes around the masks shift and move along with their mood. Actually a JustifiedTrope, as Mr.X [[spoiler: is a [[WormThatWalks sentient piece of a magic staff controlling a body composed of slug-like creatures]]]], and is likely extending the magical control to his clothing.

None

Added DiffLines:

*FeedItWithFire: An almost literal example word for word, Rom tries attacking [[spoiler:Faunza]] with fire magic when Catharine has trouble fighting her off, but since [[spoiler:Faunza]] is a [[ShapeShifter monstrov]] with fire as one of her two power sets, [[ElementalAbsorption it just gives her an energy/mana boost.]]

Added DiffLines:

*SwallowedWhole: While traversing the underground, [[spoiler:Skye]] gets swallowed by a Thokobra, causing [[spoiler:Flamel]] to panic about how to rescue [[spoiler:her]].

None

Added DiffLines:

*DragonRider: Galemore’s military has the Sky Force, a division consisting of Wyvern riders, who mainly ride serpent-like Wyverns, and take part in holiday festivities with wyvern petting zoos to educate and entertain the public, as well as putting on “Wyvern Shows” where they fly around at night, creating images in the sky with the wyvern’s fire breath, like something of a cross between an air show and a fireworks display. Dragons also exist, but the lack of dragon riders among the Sky Force seems to imply that Wyverns are easier to handle.

None

Added DiffLines:

*EatingContest: For one week, once every ten years, during the N.E.U.U (No Eyes Upon Us) festival, the “Daily mystery dish eating challenge” is held in Galemore’s capital, Dorawn. Rom takes part in the day one challenge, consisting of five bowls of increasingly painful “Heartburn salad”, of which a recipe can be found in [[{{Defictionalization}} “The Far’aus Cookbook”]] in the companion piece.

*EatDirtCheap: Downplayed; After failing to capture and eat the protagonists, a pair of mountain trolls agree on rocks for lunch as the group makes their escape.

Added DiffLines:

*DomainHolder: Deities reside in elsewhere, a place where they are able to infinitely create and control as many realms as they please, and have the ability to force other deities out if they weren’t co-creators for a particular realm.

*DoYouWantToHaggle: When a mask salesman wants to overcharge Rom for an enchanted mask that would help him find his friends, Rom, five copper short, decides to counter the initial price, to the chagrin of the salesman.

Added DiffLines:

*BlackMarket: Skye and Rom go looking for the [[MagiciansAreWizards Stage Thief]] at a literal market a fair distance away from the city of Vickerton. Skye points out the sign outside the market, reading “You can’t prove anything” is the opposite of inconspicuous, while Rom points out that at the very least, they ''[[ExactWords aren’t]]'' advertising “stolen stuff for sale”.

Added DiffLines:

* DivineMisfile: The Grim Pantheon has a “Lost and found” division that resolves the issues arising from souls being sent to the Otherworld (the spirit world created by the Grim Council,) instead of their intended afterlife, although they have to be alerted by either the spirits themselves, or the deity the spirit was a follower of, to get on the case.

Added DiffLines:

* BatPeople: Dreadwings are large (over 3 meters tall when standing upright), with a design that leans heavily towards the “bat” part, with the additions of movement sensing spines on their backs, fluffy manes, and eight legs/arms. They are noted to be untrustworthy partners to make deals with, as they usually find more value in the blood of the other party than whatever it is they will get out of the deal.

* ElementalAbsorption: [[ShapeShifter Monstrovs]] have two sets of ElementalPowers out of a list of ten [[note]] with the exception of subtypes being exclusive with what they are subtypes of, such as ice and water[[/note]], and can absorb/get energy and/or mana from things that correspond to said power sets, and can be a pain to fight if, for example, fire magic is used on one with a fire power set, all it will do is give the monstrov a boost.

* OurSpiritsAreDifferent: They are all immortal, and range from fire spirits,which are more like elementals of a sort that can fly, to Terrabnds, which are more animalistic and crawl around on the ground.
* OverlySpecificAfterlife: Being a follower of certain deities causes the spirits of dead mortals to go to whatever realms of Elsewhere their deities have set up for them. Ones that don’t go to a specific Deity’s realm of Elsewhere for their afterlife, and end up hanging around in the mortal realm, get hunted down by the Grim Council’s Reapers, & sent to the Otherworld, which was created by the Grim Council. If a mishap causes a spirit meant for a certain deities Realm to get sent to the Otherworld by mistake, their deities can contact the Grim Pantheon’s “Lost & Found” division.

* NighInvulnerability: Mischevies are extremely tough to beat, as Daryl stabbed one ''24 times'' in the back before it disappeared, and that was with an enchantment that makes weapons twice as effective.

* NoSell: When Flamel tries to use magic ice shards against a Mischevie, it just eats them.This is justified as their tongues nullify magic that comes into contact with them.

* {{Poltergeist}}: Poltergimes are trickster spirits which are the combined forms of a ghost, a Mischevie(another trickster spirit) and a slime. Like the component mischevie, they [[ItAmusedMe like to mess with people,]] (although unlike mischivies who mainly cause mischief, Poltergimes might also feel like causing someone to die if the mood hits them right) and are able to possess and haunt objects, as well as being able to create blue fire. The Poltergime [[spoiler:that haunts the house in Yorken that Daryl buys]] is seen doing things like making chandeliers fall, make objects bleed, and flip furniture around.

* CombatByChampion: A Downplayed example with the Champions tournament from the start of the story, as the purpose of the tournament seems to have been simply for the sake of seeing which deity has the strongest champion, as well as winning prizes that their champions can use, since Daryl losing the first round nets him a dagger as a ConsolationPrize.

*BeastOfBattle: Several factions have these:
** Galemore as a whole is noted to have more beast masters than summoners, which is reflected in their military with the Sky Force, which consists of Wyvern Riders, and on a smaller scale, their cavalry units, which ride horses or rams, depending on what unit they are.
** Sarengal’s cult has rams which are trained to fight, as well as carry riders.
** The protagonists end up stealing two rams from Sarengal’s cult, and name them Thunders and Showers.
