[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=nydxi5bwikla5klf8ykx4scj&page=221#5503 Across Universes]] is a SpinOff of Roleplay/WeAreOurAvatars, where players play their Author Avatars. The name was formerly "We Are Our Author Avatars". Likewise with the Discussion and Sign-Up Sheet as well.

The narrative is broken up into universes which feature the same characters but playing out an appropriate role for their universe. Occasionally the perspective shifts to another AlternateUniverse. The themes so far.

* Normalverse: a group of old friends all end up on a previously deserted island. Everyone knows eachother but they're not sure how.

The first three arcs has Tropers/SukeSho (now Tropers/{{Saturn}}) as the GameMaster but the position was officially abdicated to Tropers/RhymeBeat, then recently , the GameMaster position has changed to positions and now officialy belongs to Tropers/RhymeBeat, Tropers/{{Imca}} and Tropers/ShiningKnight. Tropers/RevolverZen was a previous GM but he quit the RP.

!!Tropes demonstrated in this game:

%%* AffablyEvil: Evil Semi
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: The reason that Rhyme is pirateverse is a pirate is that society refuses to give a "witch" a legitimate job.

* ArtifactTitle: The prominance of a wide variety of characters means that the AuthorAvatar is no longer the most important character. Actually addressed with the changing of the name to Across Universes.

* AscendedExtra:
** Norma Bates in Superheroverse was only meant as a replacement character while Tropers/RhymeBeat couldn't logically use her AuthorAvatar. Gregory Kill and Estelle also qualify to an extent.

%%* AlternateUniverse
* AwesomeMcCoolName: Ajay B'Cool

* %% BoomerangBigot: [[spoiler: Norma]] after getting [[CastingAShadow darkness abilities.]]
%%* BreadAndCircuses: The Colluseum in Greekverse.

%%* CameBackWrong: Horrorverse Dave.

%%* BerserkButton:
** Hydronix '''hates''' thieves. The trainer who appeared at the scene of the crime? He sent out his Charmeleon to attack the trainer head on, ignoring the rules he faithfully follows.
%%** In Pirateverse, Rhyme won't stand for anyone threatening 'Nix.
* BrilliantButLazy: Xavier refuses to train or get any long term career but once he's prompted to try he isn't bad at all.

%%* CompositeCharacter: [=MegaZero=]
* TheCorruption: The transformation of Fairies/{{Magical Girl}}s into witches/Fey. This directly happened to both [[spoiler: Dana and Rhyme]] before the CosmicRetcon hit.

* CosmicRetcon: [[spoiler: Lex's and [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Godoka's]] wishes ]] in Horrorverse.

%%* DarkIsEvil: Norma ends up [[ZigZaggingTrope zig-zagging this one.]]

%%* ObfuscatingStupidity: What he really is this time.
%%* DoomedHometown: The village in fantasyverse.

* EmbarrassingFirstName: There's a reason Rhyme is never referred to as Merrideth. Doesn't stop futureverse Shiny from calling her Merry...

** Subverted with [[spoiler: pre operation Noirverse Dana.]] Rhyme was counting on the fact that she'd be unwilling to shoot a pregnant woman. She was wrong.
** Goliath would love to kill his creator and wear his skin for a shawl. He will spy on him constantly and will have no problems targeting his friends. But he draws a line watching him with his new girlfriend...

%%* HalfHumanHybrid: All members of the Pirateverse [[OurMonstersAreDifferent Clans]] and [[spoiler: Meter.]]
%%* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler: Goliath/James.]]
%%* HelloAttorney: Noirverse Rhyme.
%%* {{Jerkass}}: Johnathan Bates and Jack Beat.

* IncompatibleOrientation: Xavier seems to have a crush on 'Nix. Unique in that he's('Nix) {{Asexual}}.
* IncestIsRelative: Dana has an interest in a threesome between herself, [[BrotherSisterIncest Drake, and Meter.]] Drake approves provided he doesn't know of his relation to the latter.

%%* {{Jerkass}}: Seth the vampire from Horrorverse.

* LovableRogue:

%%* MegaManning: Etheru's got this ability, he hasn't made use of it yet, partly to not having opponents that match him or opponents to copy.

** Evil Semi (that's his real first name)

* NeverASelfMadeWoman: Norma in Pirateverse got her position as a Luetenant from her mother.

** In Pirateverse there are [[OurGargoylesRock Gargoyles]], [[OurSirensAreLouder Sirens]], and [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Dragons]]

%%* NoPreggerSex: Subverted with every couple in this predicament,
* NoSenseOfDirection: Kevin can get lost walking down a hallway.
* OfficialCouple: Romantic attreactions tend to stick across universes so far... [[spoiler: Rhyme x Dave, the Ajay vs. James x Norma LoveTriangle, Meter x Mathias/Mathis/Mathew, and Dana x Drake vs. Nick. There's also, sometimes, Jack x Lance.]] ShipTease: Hydronix x Nova/Noel
%%* OppositeSexClone: Dana is this to Dave. [[spoiler: Subverted.]]
%%* PairTheSpares: Norma's plan in Christmasverse.
%%* PerspectiveFlip: How we go to each new world.

* RetGone: The compression created by Maestras machinations with the core has this unfortunate side effect [[spoiler: As poor storybook Dave found out to his horror]]

** In a sense Norma is Pirateverse. Beat though difficult to catch isn't a particularly dangerous pirate, but Norma is still chasing her because she believes Rhyme killed her boyfriend. Also Wildwestverse Nick.
** Storyverse Dave takes it too far when [[spoiler: He nearly kills Colum after Maestra almost wipes Dave out]]

%%* ShownTheirWork: Both Sunova/Imca and Revolver Zen are very knowlegeable about firearms.

* SmugSnake:
** Xavier in pirateverse to the point where his smugness sometimes grows to TooDumbToLive proportions. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] constantly by 'Nix via his thoughts.

%%** Rhyme Beat somehow finds new ways to spell her own name wrong in-game, ''especially'' during the Pirateverse. Constantly joked about, but all in good fun.

** Xavier isn't particularly flaming despite the Fire based team in Pokeverse.

* StatusQuoIsGod: Invoked far too often, to the point of being unrealistic because of how the game works. When an Universe changes, everybody comes into the new one as new characters. Apparently some characters act like this isn't the case.
%%* StopDrowningAndStandUp: Rhyme pulls this on Xavier in Pirateverse.

%%* TheLoad: Etheru's opinion of himself.
* ThemeNaming: Members of Team Universe are named after Pokemon types, but not the primary type they use. The soldiers of San Jorge are named after generals in UsefulNotes/TheAmericanCivilWar (save for [[OddNameOut Norma Bates.]])

** With the exception of Sirens who have musical Themes.
** The one and only birds of pray! though technically a Dove is not much of a bird of pray...
%%* TheMole:
%%** 'Nix in Pirateverse.
%%** Seems to be Ajay's plan so far, in the same universe, no less.
* TheReveal:
** Done both by 'Nix and Ajay to different characters about their identities in pirateverse. Then with 'Nix again [[spoiler: as the head of the Dragon Clan.]]
** [[spoiler: Dana]] as the murderer of her brother and Penny in Noriverse,
%%* TheStoic: 'Nix is usually calm, though he rathers enjoys his Jester persona.
* TangledFamilyTree: The Warrior family. Counting the in-laws nearly all the cast is there somewhere.

%%* UnequalRites: Clerics and Witches use two types of magic that cancel eachother out.
%%* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Michael/ Miguel doesn't ever catch a break with Norma.
* YouHaveFailedMe: The Emperor in Greekverse doesn't take Monster's that lose well.

** How do you defeat Gregory(atleast in Greekverse)? Threaten to cut his hair.

%%* WeirdnessMagnet: Kevin seems to end up as this sooner or later.

%%* YaoiGuys: Jack and Xavier usually, though in Greekverse, we have Jack and Lance instead.
