13	* ArtShift: Whenever there's a horror scene, the art changes from cel shading to a slightly more realistic paint-y style.
14	* BathroomStallGraffiti: Hunter's introduction is him writing a phone number on a bathroom stall.
15	* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: Most of the “armor” set pieces are just clothing articles (or weapons).
16	* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: The 100 Challenge Challenge and the 1000 Challenge Challenge arc.
17	-->'''Tage:''' [[LampshadeHanging All of this for some stupid, redundant challenge?]]
18	* EvolvingCredits: The end credits change with every new arc.
19	* FanFare: The "Enter Dasin" arc's theme is one of these.
20	* FatalFlaw: Lodin's eye. He goes to [[DarkSecret great lengths to cover it up,]] and always changes the subject when it's brought up.
21	* FourPhilosophyEnsemble: Tage (the realist), Hunter (the optimist), Lodin (the apathetic), and Proxy (the cynic).
22	* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Tage (melancholic), Hunter (saguine), Lodin (phlegmatic), and Proxy (choleric).
23	* HypocriticalHeartwarming: In book 5, when Hunter exclaims that he's the only one that can hurt Tage.
24	* TheInsomniac: The first arc is the Insomniac Arc, which is named after Tage. If you click on the cabinets in book 1, he will say that they're mostly full of Melatonin bottles. And in that same part, if you click on his bed, he reveals that he hardly ever sleeps (but when he does, he sleepwalks, so it's still not exactly sleeping).
25	* JerkJock: Hunter is introduced as one, but he becomes more of a LovableJock as his character develops.
26	* MilitaryCoup: How Valamar overthrows the Grey Prince in book 4.
27	* NationalAnthem: The menu at the beginning of each book plays ''Deșteaptă-te, române!''
28	* SinisterScythe: Valamar uses one to intimidate Grandin.
29	* SpockSpeak: Lodin talks like this.
30	* SpoilerOpening: The first volume cover spoils Hunter working with Tage. The first two credits also spoil Lodin and Proxy joining them.
31	* TheStoic: Grandin, who hardly showed any emotion when his ''own country was overthrown.'' Not to mention it was by his own [[MilitaryCoup commander]] who was holding a [[SinisterScythe scythe]] to his throat.
32	* StoryArc: Each volume is split up into different arcs, and each arc has its own title sequence that plays in the beginning of every book.
33	* TheInsomniac: The first arc in the series is the "Insomniac Arc," which is named after Tage.
34	* VillainousCheekbones: Valamar, and, to a lesser extent, Proxy.
35	* WolfMan: There's one in book 4. If you click on him his name is "Wolf Thing" and he tries to fight Tage. [[SensingYouAreOutmatched He declines.]]
