* GoodIsNotSoft: This trope could have been named for Atrus, who punishes both his sons and his father for their crimes with Fate Worse than Death.

* [[spoiler: Creepy Child: Later part of Myst IV - Sirrus possesses Yeesha's body. He does a good job at impersonating her, but his language slips through. Comes to a head in the bad endings, in which she smiles sweetly as she shoots you with a crossbow.]]

!!Yeesha

Beyond the Impossible: In the novels she's mentioned as having written "Torus", an stable doughnut-shaped Age, which features a huge waterfall that falls through the planet's core, turns into rain and gets carried back by clouds to refill the ocean, that in turn feeds the waterfall. Atrus' reaction to first seeing this was that until then, he had thought it impossible to do such things with the Art.
