''(Ages 18+) If you like stories about clever and reasonably attractive dark wizards and witches, backroom deals, Eldritch Horror, and things that go bump in the night, if you have the courage of a hero or the sinister mind of a villain, then please have a seat and start reading.''

* ArbitraryEquipmentRestriction: For the sake of game balance, wandless magic is all but impossible for witches and wizards, Kindred have to use somebody else's owls to send owl mail and can't use the Floo network at all, and witches and wizards lose access to their magic if they become ghouls or are embraced. Muggles, on the other hand, can't do any of the above, but wizards are completely in the dark about anything related to ''TabletopGame/CallOfCthulhu''.

* LargeHam: Erskine. More than half of his spoken dialogue [[NoInsideVoice ends with an exclamation mark]].
* MortonsFork: Rose's use of [[DreamingOfTimesGoneBy Eyes of the Past]] at a murder scene that looked a little too close to a botched Thaumaturgy ritual for comfort revealed that it wasn't a kindred that had performed the ritual (and broke the Masquerade), but a wizard. This left her and Nikolaus with no good options: A, they tell the Aurors (as they should, according to the treaty), and risk them learning about Thaumaturgy, or B, try to find [[TomTheDarkLord Max]] themselves. The Tremere Pyramid would obviously prefer option B, so that they can find his source and wipe all knowledge of Thaumaturgy from Max's mind before turning him over to the Aurors (or just [[HeKnowsTooMuch kill him themselves]]), but if the Aurors find out, they'd have some explaining to do.

* IHateyouVampireDad: David's relationship with Rene is one of the better examples in the game.

* PoorCommunicationKills: [[SinkOrSwimMentor Rose Belmont]] telling [[NightmareFetishist Jillian Penrose]] that if she wants to learn more about the Tremere, she has to show that she's willing to learn on her own, and not expect to just be handed it on a silver platter. And no, she can't just go [[DevilInPlainSight ask a certain (Lasombra) teacher]], either. Cue Jillian going out late at night ''again,'' looking for more vampires, only this time she was attacked by neonates, only to be saved by David Alexander. Whom, of course, interpreted Jillian's story to be that Rose intended for Jillian to do something so [[TooDumbToLive foolish]] all along, and [[KickTheDog even wanted her to get killed]] just for the sake of making the Sabbat look bad, a cartoonishly evil plot whose risk to the Masquerade no Tremere (least of all one aspiring to become Prince) would ever take.

* VillainWithGoodPublicity: [[DevilInPlainSight Mary Del Belmonte]]. Beloved teacher at Hogwarts, a close, personal friend of Headmistress [=McGonagall=]... and a [[AlwaysChaoticEvil Sabbat]] [[MagnificentBastard Lasombra]] who makes liberal use of [[MoreThanMindControl Dominate]] on her fellow staff.

* XMeetsY: Aside from [[CanonWelding the obvious]], the Azkaban GameWithinAGame has been compared by its players to ''Series/OrangeIsTheNewBlack''.

* AcceptableBreaksFromReality: While the game otherwise makes all efforts to keep it as 'realistic' as possible, major, open-to-everyone events HandWave reasons why characters from other continents can take part, despite travel time or geographic distance.
