Five Man Band is undergoing a wick-cleaning project, so examples featuring groups of more than five will be deleted.


* FiveManBand:
** [[EvilOverlord Emperor Darku]] is the BigBad [[spoiler:Or at least he is for the [[DiscOneFinalBoss for the first two thirds of the game]] until he is [[AscendedDragon supplanted by Vanenkera]] ]]
** Vanenkera is TheDragon and the whole reason why [[TheAce Xercon]] got dragged into dealing with Galactic Force
** Zane is the EvilGenius, and the one responsible for ensuring that [[TheEmpire Darku's Empire]] was a functional [[MindControlDevice Hivemind]].
** TheBrute: Wolfgang is this for the most part, although [[spoiler:once Darku is defeated he [[MookPromotion arguably becomes]] TheDragon to Vanenkera ]]
** Empress Megamonia is the obvious DarkChick. For a while she and Vanenkera serve as CoDragons although this is mainly due to her need to watch Vanenkera after she becomes aware of [[TheStarscream his ultimate plans]].
** SixthRanger: Shinerack II [[spoiler:who is back thanks to Vanenkera [[TimeCrash messing with flow of time]] ]] is this to the bad guys - he's not an ally of Darku (and in fact disapproves of him) but aligns himself to Darku out of common hatred of Galactic Force.
* FiveManBand: Most of the playable characters fit into this trope in some way.
** TheLeader: Xercon, and occasionally Voshara when Xercon is instead playing TheMentor role.
** TheLancer: Both Arcricon and Voshara fit this, but Voshara especially.
** TheSmartGuy: Arcricon and later Nyabatroide.
** TheBigGuy: Although in game he's merely SummonMagic, Blathilzar plays this role in most early cutscenes. Tansterdant later fills this role, as to an extent does Zolo. [[OptionalPartyMember Scorch]] also fit this role.
** TheChick: Jeniah, who was consciously created "because there were no female main characters" and later Roe and Fili.
** TheSixthRanger: Blathilzar was this in the beginning (he's even the game's second boss), as was Tansterdant. [[spoiler:And later, the Genesis himself who joins TheTeam in order to stop Vanenkera.]]

* FunWithAcronyms: While most characters need a [[GuardianEntity Spirit Guardian]] to use magic, Galactic Force agents use the conveniently named "Synthetic Psychic Interception and Redirection Interface Technology" or "SPIRIT".


Added DiffLines:

*FourPhilosophyEnsemble:
**Arcricon is usually The Optimist, occasionally The Conflicted
**Voshara is the Realist
**Tansterdant is the Cynic
**Xercon is the Apathetic - his true motivations still remain pretty unclear throughout the first half of the game

Added DiffLines:

*PowerTrio: The game is divided into three main power trios of protagonists:
**The main one is Xercon, Arcricon and Voshara, in which the game begins WithAFriendAndStranger. To an extent this trio could also be considered KnightKnaveAndSquire with Voshara (trained Galactic Force agent) fulfilling the Knight role, Arcricon (Pilot and reluctant combatant) fulfilling the Squire role and Xercon (mysterious vagabond from nowhere) fulfilling the Knave role.
**Jeniah, Roe and Fili. The most obvious form is the fact that they fall into the BlondeBrunetteRedhead dynamic, although they are to an extent a FighterMageThief trio, especially in the original comics (Jeniah the Fighter, Roe the Mage and Fili the Thief). NiceMeanAndInBetween applies also, with Fili being (naively) nice, Roe being mean and Jeniah somewhat in-between (or at least able to act as a mediator between Roe and pretty much every other character).
**Tansterdant, Nyabatroide and Scorch in the final battle end up lumped together in a BeautyBrainsBrawn trio, with Tansterdant the beauty, Nyabatroide the brains and Scorch the brawn.

Galactic Force is an in development RPG based on an obscure series of comics by the same name.

Galactic Force is an in development ScienceFantasy RPG based on an obscure series of comics by the same name.



*AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: President Zolo
*BalanceBetweenGoodAndEvil: At the beginning it is explained that the Genesis deliberately sought to ensure this when he created the universe.
**OrderVersusChaos is also something the Genesis planned to keep in balance, however Xercon argues that chaos and order can never co-exist, and hence Vanenkera's actions.
**Xercon, the "Prince of Love and Chaos" is consciously supposed to represent ChaoticGood but becomes NeutralGood as the story progresses, as he allies himself with the "order" side of the spectrum in order to defeat Vanenkera.
**Vanenkera, the "Prince of Hate and Chaos" is the epitome of ChaoticEvil and thus the {{Foil}} to Xercon.
**Other characters, and Galactic Force as a whole, tend to be LawfulGood although as Galactic Force exists "to defend freedom", there may be a ChaoticGood element to its ethos.
*BelligerentSexualTension: The clash of personalities and political differences between Roe and Tansterdant ultimately leads to this.



*DudeWheresMyRespect: Tansterdant, the legendary former Galactic Force agent finds this upon meeting Princess Roe when he is ordered about by her.
*EldritchAbomination: [[spoiler:Vanenkeran's final form after he obtains all three Galactic Orbs and begins "uncreation" of the universe.]]
*FishOutOfTemporalWater: Jeniah is shocked when Arcricon refers to Planet Buklos as "Mars", a name that hasn't been in use to describe the planet for millennia. [[spoiler:It is later revealed that, unknown to the two, Jeniah was born centuries after Arcricon but they are together due to a TimeCrash caused by [[ApocalypseHow/ClassZ Vanenkera's grand plan]].]]



*FiveManBand: Most of the playable characters fit into this trope in some way.
**TheLeader: Xercon, and occasionally Voshara when Xercon is instead playing TheMentor role.
**TheLancer: Both Arcricon and Voshara fit this, but Voshara especially.

**TheBigGuy: Although in game he's merely SummonMagic, Blathilzar plays this role in most early cutscenes. Tansterdant later fills this role, as to an extent does Zolo. [[OptionalPartyMember Scorch]] also fit this role.
**TheChick: Jeniah, who was consciously created "because there were no female main characters" and later Roe and Fili.
*HeroesPreferSwords: Xercon uses a sword despite them being absolutely obsolete in a sci fi universe.



* ThreePlusTwo: The first act of the game features the PowerTrio of Xercon, Arcricon and Voshara with later additions coming in the form of [[TheChick Jeniah]] and others.

to:

*MagicFromTechnology: As a man early on in the game says, "The greatest technological leap forward in history was when [[LampShading scientists invented magic]]."
*PunchPunchPunchUhOh: When Arcricon first confronts Zane and realises halfway through that the absence of the Galactic Orb means he no longer has superhuman strength.
*RuleOfCool: While the vast majority of characters use laser weapons, for some reason Xercon and Blathilzar use swords and Jeniah uses a spear - hopelessly outdated weaponry for a sci fi setting.
*ShroudedInMyth: This is true of both Xercon and Tansterdant who are legendary and semi-legendary figures respectively. Both are known to be TheAce although it would appear, particularly in Xercon's case, to be an InformedAbility with him only one level more powerful than Arcricon and Voshara and he is a victim of TheWorfEffect very early on in the game.
* ThreePlusTwo: The first act of the game features the PowerTrio of Xercon, Arcricon and Voshara with later additions coming in the form of [[TheChick Jeniah]] Jeniah]], Tansterdant and others.others.
*{{Tsundere}}: Roe.
*UnitedSpaceOfAmerica: Inverted. The default system of government in the future seems to be a Westminster-style constitutional monarchy, and the equivalent of TheFederation bears considerable resemblance to the Commonwealth of Nations, with Planet Shinerack taking on the role of benevolent protector of worlds that were formerly part of its colonial empire making it an equivalent to the United Kingdom rather than United States.
*WellExcuseMePrincess: Tansterdant and [[RoyalBrat Roe]]. Initially Arcricon and Blathilzar too.
