13	!! This show provides examples of:
14	* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Rook. Prior to the series he spent years training with the masters and then five years in constant battle with an army of monsters. All the training and experience has given him the ability to defeat superpowered beings. However, he claims that he even smarter than he is strong, so he has AwesomenessByAnalysis too.
15	* TheChosenOne: Rook: In ''In a Beginning'', when he is in the jail, he remembers being the chosen one. It is hinted that it did not go very well. [[spoiler: Especially since he was later chained to a wall for five years and forced to fight in a never ending battle.]]
16	* FlyingBrick: Emma: she has the stock superpowers: super strength, super speed, flight, invulnerability, super senses, and energy blasts.
17	* IdentityAmnesia: Brandy: At the beginning of the series she has no idea who she is or where she came from.
18	* InnBetweenTheWorlds: Same principle, just an interdimensional restaurant instead of a bar.
19	* QuestForIdentity: Throughout the series, there are side stories about Brandy's quest for her identity. So far she has not had much luck.
20	* YouAllMeetInAnInn: The entire plot of the series is about people meeting in the restaurant.
