History FanFic / TheQuestForTheHoleyGrail

* UnexpectedCharacter: Basically every time a new character arrives, but especially when WesternAnimation/{{Scooby Doo}} and the gang show up, and when "[[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragon F]][[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire r]][[Myth/NorseMythology ey]]" the Valkyrie appears in the sequel.

* ReligionOfEvil: The cultists from Film/{{Indiana Jones And The Temple Of Doom}} appear in Part 2, where their leader tries to sacrifice Indian Jones and [[ImAHumanitarian eat his heart]].

** Likely unintentional, but Aragorn apparently conquers [[Fanfic/LegolasByLaura "mondor"]], and some lines are phrased identically to lines from [[Fanfic/HalfLifeFullLifeConsequences Half-Life: Full-Life Consequences]].

* UnexpectedCharacter: Basically every time a new character arrives, but especially when WesternAnimation/{{Scooby Doo}} and the gang show up, and when "[[VideoGame/FireEmblemShadowDragon F]][[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire r]][[Myth/NorseMythology ey]]" the Valkyrie appears in the sequel.

* AnachronismStew: As would be expected in a King Arthur/Harry Potter/Lord of the Rings/Indiana Jones/Doctor Who/Scooby-Doo/World of Warcraft crossover. Even stranger when the characters travel to the past; apparently, there was no electricity 20 years ago, but there were chicken wings and hamburgers. UpToEleven in the sequel, where, among other things, Aragorn holds off the dark forces [[RuleOfCool with a machine gun]].
* AnyoneCanDie: Something like half the characters in the story die. UpToEleven in the sequel, where [[spoiler:several of the main characters in the first story, including Indian Jones and Harry, are offed.]] DeathIsCheap, to an extent, as well (several characters return as zombies and ghosts,) but they rarely return unscathed, and the vast majority of killed protagonists stay dead, making the story oddly mature regarding death for something with the grammatical quality of an elementary schooler.

* UnexpectedCharacter: Basically every time a new character arrives, but especially when WesternAnimation/{{Scooby Doo}} and the gang show up, and when "[[VideoGame/FireEmblemAkaneia F]][[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire r]][[Myth/NorseMythology ey]]" the Valkyrie appears in the sequel.

* DragonAscendent: The Man Made of Blood goes from high-level henchman in the first story to BigBad of the second.

* BloodierAndGorier: More so than all of the original stories. All of the villains who get stabbed seem to have OverdrawnAtTheBloodBank to the point that it borders on BloodyHilarious.

* IHaveManyNames: The innkeeper is variously called "butterbean", "bitterman", and "butterman".

* YouFailGeographyForever: The Prancing Pony, or "dancing pony in", is not in "hobbittown", and there probably isn't a haunted house at Rohan either.

The story begins with Myth/{{King Arthur}} (alternatively, "Aurthr", "Aurthur", "Aurther", and other such misnomers) and Lancelot getting a message about the 'Holey' Grail, and culminates in a massive epic battle between the "good team" and the "drak ones". Along the way, King Arthur meets up with Franchise/{{Harry Potter}} (Didn't you know? "Yes, the grail is atually the goblet of fire from the harry poter book", and yes, that's an actual quote, [[BreakingTheFourthWall from Harry himself]]), Hagrid, [[Franchise/IndianaJones "indian Jones"]], [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings "the lord of the rings people"]], Series/{{Doctor Who}}, "professor snake" (a character who can only be Professor Snape), and inexplicably, WesternAnimation/{{Scooby Doo}} and the Mystery Machine. The "evil team" has an equally eclectic mix of characters that includes the "lick king from [[VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft Wrodl fo Warcraf]]", "Voldermor", Sauron, and the "russian woman from [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheKingdomOfTheCrystalSkull indian Jones and the crystal skull]]". There is also a sequel, titled "Trouble on Darklands", set 20 years after the original.

The story begins with King Arthur (Aurthr,Aurthur,Aurther, etc) and Lancelot getting a message about the 'Holey' Grail, and culminates in a massive epic battle between the "good team" and the "drak ones". Along the way King Arthur meets up with Harry Potter (Didn't you know? "Yes, the grail is atually the goblet of fire from the harry poter book", and yes, that's an actual quote), Hagrid, "indian Jones" (otherwise known as Indiana Jones), "the lord of the rings people", Doctor Who, "professor snake" (a character who can only be Professor Snape), and inexplicably, Scooby Doo and the Mystery Machine. The "evil team" has an equally eclectic mix of characters that includes the "lick king from Wrodl fo Warcraf", "Voldermor", Sauron, and the "russian woman from indian Jones and the crystal skull". There is a sequel, titled "Trouble on Darklands", set 20 years after the original.

* BreakingTheFourthWall: All over the place, both in dialogue and in description. Characters, particularly Harry, repeatedly refer to the books and movies they're from, and the author shortens descriptions by referring to the original works [[ContinuityPorn or, in some cases, earlier parts of the story]]. The latter is especially prominent in the sequel, where references are repeatedly made to Part One.

* TheCorruption: [[spoiler:In the sequel, the Man Made of Blood curses Harry to fall to TheDarkSide. It reaches a climax when the Ghost King uses Harry's curse-induced weakness to [[DemonicPossession possess him]], which forces Indian Jones to kill him.]]

* IAmNotShazam: The "lord of the rings people" are occasionally referred to as just "the lord of the rings", even though Sauron is one of the villains.

* AnyoneCanDie: Something like half the characters in the story die.
* YouFailGeographyForever: The Prancing Pony , or "dancing pony in", is not in "hobbittown", and there probably isn't a haunted house at Rohan either.

* IHaveManyNames: The innkeeper is variously called "butterbean" and "butterman".

* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: "Indian Jones" appears to have bottomless pockets that can hold flamethrowers and crystal skulls, and Gandalf can use all kinds of magic explosions. Scooby and Shaggy acquire magical Scooby Snacks that [[LetsGetDangerous turn them into an unstoppable force of destruction]].

* TimeSkip: Between the first and second stories. After the Drak Ones are defeated, Aragorn becomes king of Gondor and takes over [[Fanfic/LegolasByLaura Mondor]] in Sauron's absence, Arthur returns to his "castel" at "Ablion", and [[spoiler:Dumbledore dies.]] However, [[ComicBookTime Harry and his friends still attend Hogwarts, despite logically being in their thirties.]]

Of course, it has all the makings of a terribly awesome fanfic including time travel, out-of-character plots, killing characters off for little to no reason, leaving basically everything unexplained, and doors made from skulls, bones and dead bodies. The finished version of the story can be found here: [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7984354/1/The_Quest_for_the_Holey_Grail]]

* DramaticReading: By Tropers/ManWithoutABody, Part 1 [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dj7LvAyq9Kk here]].
* InformedAbility: The whole point of the quest is to compile some kind of epic weapon to destroy the Drak/Dark Ones, but it isn't really ever explained why the weapon will help.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: "Indian Jones" appears to have bottomless pockets that can hold flamethrowers and crystal skulls, and Gandalf can use all kinds of magic explosions. Also other examples.

* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Quite a few times.
* YouFailGeographyForever: The Prancing Pony , or "dancing pony in", is not in "hobbittown", and there probably isn't a haunted house at Rohan either.

The Quest for the Holey Grail (yes, Holey) is a ridiculous multi-fandom crossover written by KingAurthr (later known as KingAurthr2), a mysterious figure who appears to be approx. six and a half years old, and rife with major spelling, grammar, and plot mistakes.

* DidNotDoTheResearch: "indian Jones" much? Also other examples.
