History Roleplay / RideAloneComplex

** [[BunnyEarsLawyer Haken]]: {{Shout Out}}s of practically every sort (particularly to UsefulNotes/PlayStation 1/2-era video games). Also YuriFan and EthicalHedonist (mostly EthicalSlut) of the highest order.

RAC functions more as a "Good End" to the previous game (when it isn't busy reading more like [[AuthorTract a scathing in-character critique thereof]]); the heroes won, and some serious efforts on [[IdiosyncraticShipNaming FangOreo's]] part have brought [[Series/KamenRiderKuuga Grongi]], [[Series/KamenRiderKiva Fangires]], [[Series/KamenRiderFaiz Orphenochs]], and [[Series/KamenRiderKabuto Worms]] out into society under their own power - especially Fangires, with a [=FangOreo=]-backed Development & Pioneer engineering a LifeEnergy feeding substitute (and Coca-Cola {{Expy}}) known as FN-TAU.

** Now joining the pack is a talking [[Series/KamenRiderFaiz Autovajin]] with +speech noted in plus signs+.

* CoolGuns: Wyll uses a [[HandCannon Smith & Wesson .500 magnum]], and Aelita prefers a [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Five-seveN]].

** Aelita's use of a [[CoolGuns Five-seveN]] is a reference to [[strike:her status in KRV and RAC as [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater The Boss]]]] actually just her being French and needing a spiffy European-made semi-automatic answer to [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Wyll only having five shots to his name at a time]].

* ShrugOfGod: Particularly hilarious example: [=AdventFalls=] (who mostly writes ShoujoAi) hadn't decided whether Rebecca was straight/gay/bi by the time he suddenly had to for Akebara's [[CharmPerson Distracting Looks]] feat. So he ''rolled dice for it''.

*** Platinum: Haruka's fighting a frenzied Ake at the time, and is herself a little loose in the head from IXA's initial no-sell being reminiscent of [[DiabolusExMachina the LAST Fangire to wield the Mk.XI]]...who shares a name with [=PE1=]'s BonusBoss.

* FeverDreamEpisode: [[http://ridealonecomplex.pbworks.com/I%27m-Still-In-A-Dream Haruka slogging through]] [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3 The Sorrow's river]], accosted by [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech KRV's Maya vi Inoue]] and saved only though the intervention of her fellow Riders and some Cobra Unit Emotion Gaia Memory weirdness. [[spoiler:Initially intended as foreshadowing for a potential MidseasonUpgrade, but A) [[IronicEcho Axel bitched backstage about the idea of Haruka having a Midseason Upgrade]], and B) the VideoGame/ParasiteEve-themed upgrade that [[http://ridealonecomplex.pbworks.com/Moment-of-Humanity Haruka eventually settled on]] had better BrickJoke value.]]

** Aelita, who's shifted from being the [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3 The Boss]] to Haruka's Strangelove to being the Laguna to her Squall - not to mention the TronLines.
** Jack, the mecha otaku with a name recycled from Haken's [[Series/KamenRiderDragonKnight Torque backup]] for KRV (in and of itself an approximation of [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3 Naked Snake's real name]]) and a personality/demeanor that can best be described as [[VideoGame/ZettaiHeroProject "Pirohiko Ichimonji without the dying right off the bat"]].

** Aelita's use of a [[CoolGuns Five-seveN]] is a reference to [[strike:her status in KRV and RAC as [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid3 The Boss]]]] actually just her being French and needing a spiffy European-made semi-automatic answer to [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Wyll only having five shots to his name at a time]].

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: The OTHER motivation for tapping new Riders - namely inspiring them into this trope, considering how Kenoko got on board. May also play a factor in retention, if Pacifica's debut is any indication.

* FirstNameBasis: Kenoko with everybody because that's just how she is. Akebara's own habit (barring calling Kenoko [[SenpaiKohai Senpai]]) seems like a mistake (being born and raised in Japan), until you realize she was taught by Wyll, [[FridgeBrilliance who isn't Japanese to begin with.]]

** [[AlmightyJanitor Athon]]: [[SubvertedTrope Subverting expectations]] and SurprisinglyGoodEnglish for one of the game's two Brazillian players.
