!! The fanfic ''Heartless'' provides examples of:
* AbsurdlySharpBlade: The Darkness-corrupted sword that Drich gives to Sasuke.
* AndIMustScream: The first few moments as a Heartless were this for Drich. She had ''no'' idea what the hell was going on and, when she tried to scream, realized she had no mouth. Cue FreakOut. She got used to it later on, but the first few moments were pretty horrible.
* BadassAdorable: Drich's original form is known to be very adorable, almost doll-like.
* BeyondTheImpossible: The Sage of Six Paths [[spoiler: ''somehow'' managing to put a seal on a [[EldritchLocation Dimensional Barrier]].]] Even Jiraiya was dumbfounded.
* BlackAndWhiteInsanity: Xine is completely incapable of comprehending that LightIsGood and DarkIsEvil aren't laws of nature.
* CurbStompBattle: Happens a lot. When one side can't hurt the other at all, it's pretty much inevitable.
** The fight vs Xine is particularly notable, because despite being the only opponent to be actually able to kill Drich thanks to his Keyblade, the difference in speed, power, skill and experience keeps him from landing a single hit while Drich just toys with him.
* DarkIsNotEvil
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In the first few chapters, Drich was able to listen to and talk with other Spacebattles posters who were following her story. This ability was quickly dropped and never mentioned of again. The author then went back and edited that out (the original version are saved in spoilers).
* EldritchAbomination: Drich's name is literally a shortened version of Eldritch. She is a being that is known to have no soul, body, mind, or heart, and yet is capable of reasoning, showing compassion, and intelligence. Her kind are known for devouring ''entire worlds'', something she's shown on occasion to be capable of.
* EldritchLocation: The Corridor of Darkness, which Drich travels through constantly.
* ExistentialHorror: Drich, as her species name and the stories name implies, is without a Heart. Not a physical heart, but a metaphysical Heart. A Heart, is involved in a beings ambitions, emotions, memories and connections with other people, to go without it is to diminish or outright remove such abilities. But, besides metaphysically being without a Heart, Drich has full control of her faculties. [[spoiler: When training her apprentices, they notice that they can sense their connections to everyone they know, except for Drich as she's without a Heart. They begin to become concerned, but Drich brushes it off.]] Drich is handling things remarkably well, but since being without a Heart and being mentally "normal" is literally metaphysically impossible, Drich's ultimate fate as an individual is uncertain and ominous.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Drich starts out like this. In the beginning of the story, she was the weakest form of Heartless, unable to protect herself from other threats. Then, as the story progressed, she became a [[NighInvulnerability Nigh Invulnerable]] badass capable of taking on [[spoiler: [[EldritchAbomination the Juubi]]]] one on one.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: All Heartless have them, but Drich changes hers to [[OccultBlueEyes blue]] to [[InnocentBlueEyes differentiate]] herself from other Heartless.
* HorrorHunger: Heartless in general have the all consuming feeling of hunger and the need to feed on hearts. Drich spends most of the first few chapters dealing with these urges and trying not to become corrupted by them.
** Takato and Guilmon have destructive urges and rage the first time they become Megidramon.
* JerkassGods: R.O.B. or Random Omnipotent Being, who dropped Drich into the multiverse as a Heartless for little to no reason. [[spoiler: Granted, Drich ''did'' become a vital component for saving several Worlds, as well as billions of lives but R.O.B. is still a jerk.]]
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler: Gaara]]. Drich responded with TranquilFury, however this is mainly because Drich cannot speak beyond a monotone or show facial expressions.
* KillerRabbit: Drich is an approachable, knowledgeable, and laidback person who genuinely wants to help the people of the worlds she wanders into. She usually isn't direct. Piss her off and remember that she's also unkillable to everything except Light, Darkness, and a Keyblade; unable to tire; able to track you by your ''Heart''; able to travel though methods that you cannot stop; and can split herself into multiple bodies, all of which have her complete skillset and share a hivemind. Oh and Light, Darkness, and Keyblades are rare as a two-horned unicorn.
** Remember [[Anime/DigimonTamers Takato and Guilmon]]? Here, their normal Mega isn't [[KnightInShiningArmor Gallantmon]]... It's [[BeastOfTheApocalypse Megidramon]]. [[spoiler: Though WordOfGod is that after the D-Reaper incidient, they can access Gallantmon as well, and even shift between the two at will. However, no one--not even them or Drich--knows about/suspects this.]]
* MamaBear: Drich pretty much treats Sasuke and Naruto as her surrogate children. So when Sasuke [[spoiler: almost got killed by Shukaku during the Chunin Invasion]] she got ''pissed'' and almost [[KilledOffForReal killed him]].
* MuggingTheMonster: So many bandits do this to Drich its practically a RunningGag by this point. It's basically where she gets most of her money and entertainment.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Drich sees [[spoiler: Nagato]] as this and ''utterly hates him for it''.
* NighInvulnerability: Drich is this due to her Heartless nature. At one point she places herself in the middle of a ''star'' and came out of it no worse for wear.
* OddFriendship: Drich and the [[spoiler: Sanbi]].
** As per canon, Naruto wants to have this with the Kyubi. [[spoiler: Both of them.]] He's promised.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: For a good part of the story, a lot of Drich's power ups were signified by her getting smaller. This was because she ate up some of the darkness that made up her form in order to get said power up.
* PowerHigh: The darkness is this for Drich, forcing her to only use it in small quantities for fear of being corrupted by it.
* TheSacredDarkness: As per Kingdom Heart's later installments, while Darkness isn't ''evil'' it can be very dangerous.
** [[WordOfGod As posted on the forum]], Darkness and Light exist on a separate axis from "Holy/Unholy." Thus it is perfectly possible to have a Holy Darkness Spell, an Unholy Light Spell, an Unholy Darkness Spell, and a Holy Light Spell.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Drich, upon coming to Xine's World, briefly contemplates staying there for a while since she would probably have all sorts of kingdom adventures and be a part of a big nation conspiracy. But then she realize that she would have to deal with Xine and decided not to bother with it, immediately leaving the moment she dropped him and the princess off.
* SelfInsert: Drich, a poster on [[{{Website/SpaceBattlesDotCom}} Space Battles]], is transformed into a Heartless and dropped into the [[spoiler:[[{{Manga/Naruto}} Naruto World]]]]
* TemptingFate:[[spoiler: In the sequel this is invoke by [[{{Anime/DigimonTamers}} Terriermon]] when they land on a New World because he is bored.]]
* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: Everything having to do with the Heartless in general, Drich views as this. She does not like even talking about them or mentioning them in conversation with people she trusts, for fear that they would make their way to one of the Worlds that Drich is fond of.
* TookALevelInKindness: It's amazing what [[spoiler: having still living family members, friends to care for him, and a substitute parental figure during his childhood]] did for Sasuke's mental state. He's now much calmer, nicer, and a lot less revenge obsessed than he was in canon.
* UnstoppableForceMeetsImmovableObject: Sasuke's Darkness infused sword clashes with Drich's Darkness-based Keyblade Armor. [[spoiler:Drich throws her Darkness into the armor and it holds... But is scratched. Turns out only Light or Darkness can do that to her armor.]]
* TheVoice: There are often Bolded lines of text that act as exposition for Drich and the reader. They aren't mixed with quote marks so no discrete character is speaking, but Drich often acts upon the information. Given the level of depth and understanding... It might be Darkness itself.
-->Information: '''Light carrying communication, bypassing barriers. She speaks, and all understand.'''
-->'''Communication between Hearts. Communication between Light and Darkness.'''
-->Drich thinking: ''I can do that too.''
-->Information: '''Darkness is not as capable as Light at carrying messages. Darkness strips the message of everything, leaving naught but the message itself. The communication is soundless and voiceless, but it is made known regardless.'''
* AWizardDidIt: Digignomes are helpful genies. Anything weird or inexplicable that happens in the Digimon universe are usually because of their bullshit RealityWarper powers.
* YinYangBomb: [[WordOfGod Noted on the forum by the author]] that mixing Light and Darkness is when things start getting weird.
