* CurbStompBattle: Once the heroines get in trouble it tends to be pretty one-sided, though admittedly the odds are usually impossible to begin with...
* CurbStompCushion: ...though they put up a good fight, even if it only prolongs the inevitable.



* DarkActionGirl: Callista, definitely. Her CurbStompBattle with [[spoiler: Deirdre]] shows this most clearly.



* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Albert and Callista are genuinely fond of each other.



* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: [[spoiler: The heroines, without exception, are going to end up captured and helpless]].

* GulliverTieDown: A variation; the gremlins don't actually stake their victims to the floor, and the victim is usually awake and struggling at the time, but the principle of using rope and numbers to subdue a much larger victim still stands.



* InescapableNet: [[spoiler: Annalae]] gets caught in one. Justified as it's a magical construct that automatically tightens and seals itself into a coccoon.
* {{Kitsune]]: Deirdre is not technically this, but she certainly gives off this vibe when she has her fox tail [[spoiler: which contributes to her downfall as it provides a convenient anchor point for the rope she gets bound with]].



* OhCrap: The default expression of many heroines as their situation worsens.



* OverTheShoulderCarry: Happens as often as you'd expect in a series with such a heavy focus on kidnapping.
* PornWithPlot: The story gets increasingly detailed as the author refines his craft, yet the main focus is always on the ways in which the various attractive women end up getting in trouble.



* SchmuckBait: It turns out a lot of [[BigBad big bad's]] schemes are exactly this.

It Got Worse cleanup/rename - Abuse and Zero Context Examples will be deleted


The story begins with a waitress working at the Fair Harvest Inn, named Anna, goes missing after her employer Albert Fiskerne sent her down to retrieve more supplies from the cellar. After she didn't return, Albert went down to fetch her and found that she's disappeared altogether and the only clue is a large hole in the cellar wall that hadn't been there before. So the innkeeper calls on Luther Vandermoor, a local guardsman, for assistance. So he hires a [[ActionGirl woman mercenary]] by the name of Valerin to properly investigate the disappearance. From there, [[ItGotWorse things get worse]]. Much, ''much'' worse.
