* TheChosenOne ([[Administrivia/TropesAreFlexible Variation]]): A PowerTrio, the Chosen ''Three'', the Tyr-ridan, three prophesied Shanir, each aligned with one of the three aspects of God. When all three aspects of the god are present at once, the final battle with Perimal Darkling is supposed to occur.

* OurElvesAreBetter: The Kencyrath are never explicitly ''called'' elves, but they fit a lot of the normal qualities, especially the Highborn: an ancient race with long life, mystical powers, a special purpose, etc. (And some of them have the arrogance to match!)

* FantasticRacism: Shanir face a lot of prejudice in modern Kencyr culture. While the narrative never wavers on the point that Shanir should be treated better, it becomes more nuanced over time. Jame--and thus the reader--comes to see that it's not as simple as "they're being mean to us." Shanir have very real powers, and power corrupts. When Shanir use their powers for ill--and they most certainly do--non-Shanir have very little they can do to protect themselves. The prejudice against Shanir is born of a long history of Shanir using their powers to commit autocracies, from dancing our people's souls to raping your brother.

*LineageComesFromTheFather ({{Zigzagg|ingTrope}}ed): The Kendar are matrilineal and trace descent through the mother's line. Highborn are patrilineal and ''mostly'' trace descent through the father's line. But while Highborn children are part of their father's house, they often have some allegiance to their mother's house as well, so that's considered worth making note of. Korey is half-Caineron; Demoth is half-Ardeth; Kirien and Kallystine are half-Randir.

GoodIsNotNice: Probably the most charitable interpretation of the Three-Faced God, which could also be seen as a NeglectfulPrecursor, a JerkassGod, or even a (relatively benevolent) EldritchAbomination. In any event, it doesn't seem to expect its followers to ''like it'', so long as they get the job done.

*InterfaithSmoothie: Kencyr are pointedly monotheists, but with a God that's a trinity of three aspects, per {{UsefulNotes/Christianity}}. Those three aspects are creation, preservation, and destruction, much like {{UsefulNotes/Hinduism}}.
