Trope renamed to Smelly Feet Gag. Removing because the example doesn't provide context for the Played For Laughs aspect.


* SmellyFeet: Lyle Krinkor. After a vixen off-handedly calls his pirates "smelly wolves," he shamelessly acknowledges that his feet stink, and orders her to lick them clean.

!!This novel provides examples of:

* AnyoneCanDie: Named characters are killed off throughout the novel with little warning. [[spoiler:Even major characters from Michum and Rob's groups are eventually killed off, despite surviving seemingly impossible situations for a majority of the story]].
* BittersweetEnding: ''Very'' bitter, but not a complete DownerEnding. [[spoiler:Millons of people are killed, and the military decides to bomb Diamond City in order to stop Lyle's army. Deacon, A-Hole, Corporal Skellish, and Michum and his entire gang all perish. But Captain Lyle and his lieutenants are all killed, Rob and Margot survive and are rescued, and they later find out that hundreds of other civilians were rescued from the city before it was bombed]].
* {{Bookends}}: [[spoiler:The story begins with Michum and his gang in the skate park, still teeming with life, and his friends happy and carefree. It ends in the same skate park, but with Michum all alone, the skate park in ruins, and all his friends dead]].
* BringMyBrownPants:
** [[spoiler:After Michum chops off Lyle's paw, he tries to crawl away from him and promptly shits himself]].
** Earlier, Lyle mentions that [[spoiler:Kinzly wet his pants when he started to stab him]].
* DecoyProtagonist: [[spoiler:The prologue chapter focuses on a goat named Tutley as she tries to prevent Lyle from acquiring the robotic dragon. She's killed before the real story begins in Diamond City]].
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:Wounded and alone, Michum doesn't even try to escape Diamond City after the bombing starts. Instead, he heads back to the skate park and accepts his fate]].
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler:Tully dies in Michum's arms in the penultimate chapter]].
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:A-Hole is randomly, and unceremoniously, shot in the head by Teri. Rob, Margot, and Deacon mourn him for half a second, then quickly forget about him]].
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The pirates invading Diamond City are wolves. [[CaptainObvious Wolves are covered in fur]].
* {{Fartillery}}: Along with being a LightningBruiser, Dolan can also emit gaseous fumes to fog up his surroundings and disorient his foes.
* FiveBadBand:
** BigBad: Captain Lyle Krinkor
** TheDragon: Pryllic
** TheEvilGenius: Marcus
** TheBrute: Dolan
** TheDarkChick: Teri
* {{Foreshadowing}}:
** Early on in the story, Tully jokingly remarks that [[spoiler:the military is going to nuke Diamond City because it's overrun by too many pirates. While they don't resort to using nukes, they ''do'' inevitably bomb the entire city]].
** In the same chapter, Kelly doesn't want to stay in the city because she doesn't believe that [[spoiler:a group of beasts with no weapons training can defeat Lyle's army. While Michum does succeed in killing Lyle, the whole gang is killed in the process, and they fail to save the city]].
* HeroKiller: Captain Lyle. He's directly responsible for killing off [[spoiler:the DecoyProtagonist and ''four'' of the main characters]], and he seriously wounds another.
* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Downplayed. The wolves never aim straight, and most of the heroes manage to scurry past them with no problem. Despite this, several characters are wounded (and in a couple cases, killed) by a random stray bullet.
* InstantAwesomeJustAddDragons: The weapon Lyle and his pirates steal is a giant, sentient, robotic dragon.
* KillEmAll: [[spoiler:By the end of the story, everyone is dead except for Rob, Margot, and dozens of nameless civilians who were evacuated from the city before it was bombed]].
* OffWithHisHead: How Captain Lyle kills [[spoiler:Pryllic after he fails to defeat Michum and Tully]].
* PlotArmor: Michum and Rob's crews manage to fight off Lyle's pirates and/or triumph over massive gunfights and battles that get other, minor characters killed. [[spoiler:The armor vanishes two-thirds of the way into the story, and the main cast starts dropping fast]].
* SacrificialLamb: [[spoiler:Joey and Ajax's]] deaths made it very clear that anyone can and ''will'' die.
* SacrificialLion: Once [[spoiler:Kinzly, along with Kelly and Carson]] were all killed, the story made it clear that the characters' PlotArmor had been nullified.
* ShootTheShaggyDog: [[spoiler:Despite their efforts, Michum and his crew fail to stop the military from bombing Diamond City, and none of them escape the city alive]].
* SmellyFeet: Lyle Krinkor. After a vixen off-handedly calls his pirates "smelly wolves," he shamelessly acknowledges that his feet stink, and orders her to lick them clean.
* SoftGlass: Averted. Throughout the story, characters have to strike at glass multiple times to break it, and take necessary precautions to make sure it doesn't cut them.
* UnderdogsNeverLose: Michum and his gang have no weapons training, are outnumbered, and are nowhere near as experienced as Lyle's pirates. Nevertheless, they still take on Lyle's gang head-on, and refuse to give up. [[spoiler:They all end up dying, and their efforts to save the city prove to be pointless]].
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse:
** The story never confirms whether or not [[spoiler:the dragon was killed during the bombings in the final chapter]].
** After Chapter 2, Lyle's raccoon mook, Geivers, disappears from the story entirely.
*WorldOfFunnyAnimals: The story takes place in a universe filled with anthropormorphic animals.
* YouNeedABreathMint:
** Carson's friends constantly remark or make fun of his foul breath, so much so that it becomes a RunningGag. It gets to a point where he manages to ''stun a wolf assailant'' just by exhaling in his face.
** A couple characters comment on Lyle's breath as well. Even he admits that he's aware of how bad it smells.
* YourHeadASplode: How Teri kills [[spoiler:A-Hole]].
