* CloudCuckooLander: [[CloudCuckooLand Almost everyone.]]
* ConservationOfCompetence: Either [[StupidEvil misko27]] was a foolish leader leading (among others) [[OnlySaneMan GreatWyrmGold]], or [[EvilOverlord misko27]] was successful in stopping [[CloudCuckooLander Great]][[TheStarscream Wyrm]][[StupidGood Gold]] from attacking him.
* TheDragon: [[OmnicidalManiac Xantalos]] used to be one for [[EvilOverlord misko27]].
** Long before that, Corai was the main (if not sole) minion for the lich, and remarkably effective.
* DeathIsCheap: Players typically return within a turn.
* DuelBoss: At one point, Corai and the lich could be seen as this. Currently, the Paladins see [[StarCrossedLovers Dirg and the lichette]] as this.
* ExactTimeToFailure: Subverted; the countdown didn't do anything when it hit 0.5, and hasn't dropped past that.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: [[OmnicidalManiac Xantalos]]'s attempts to destroy the universe.
* FaceHeelTurn: Corai defected to the lich's side early on. Later on, either Dirg or misko27 did as well.
* FinalBoss: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Of course!]]
* FollowTheLeader: Presumably why so many people started starting factions.
* GenderBender: The lich, after many transformations, became a "lichette" and [[InterspeciesRomance married Dirg]]. Corai was later attacked with Rule 63 and turned into the leader of womanly women by Misko.
** Dirg is often accused of this.
* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Tim showed up without much explanation beyond, "There are too many factions."
* HeelFaceTurn: Possibly when GreatWyrmGold formed the [[TakeAThirdOption Moderates]].
* LongRunner: For a minimalist Roll to Dodge, at least. Most don't reach 30 pages; YaFB has over ''200'', plus an Out of Character thread of about the same length.
* LoneWolfBoss: Any faction leader not directly associated with the lich can be seen as this.
* MarathonBoss: As noted by the Long Runner entry, it's taken a while...and the lich still isn't dead!
* NotSoDifferent: Pick any two major factions.
** Romantics and Paladins: Both are led by evil people.

* [[OnlySaneEmployee Only Sane Minion:]] GreatWyrmGold saw himself as this while working under misko27.
* OurLichesAreDifferent: The lich has undergone many transformations, including an orb which was the source of all magic and a "lichette." He also had a blade made of souls of the damned for a while.
* PlayableEpilogue: For a single turn.
* RunningGag: Early on, ice cream made an appearance in many failed rolls.
* ThePowerOfFriendship: Allegedly the only way to defeat the lich. [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Never confirmed.]]

Now, [[ItMakesSenseInContext after many changes of arena, boss, and players,]] it is a struggle between [[GenderBender the lichette]] [[InterspeciesRomance and her husband Dirg]]; [[TheEmpire a massive interstellar empire lead by misko27]]; [[Portal Aperture Science]], [[ItMakesSenseInContext lead by]] [[LawfulGood Pragmatic Good]] [[OnlySaneMAn mecha-dragon GreatWyrmGold]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext and located on a spaceship]]; [[TestosteronePoisoning the Manly Men, lead by]] [[HeelFaceTurn former]] [[OmnicidalManiac attempted omnicidalist Xantalos]]; [[TheAlcoholic The Drunken Fools, lead by Yoink]]; [[FluffyTheTerrible Tim]]; and [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters many others]], [[DoubleAgent including "members" of the aforementioned sides]].

!!This game contains examples of the following tropes:
* AboveGoodAndEvil: misko27 claims to be this.
* AbsoluteXenophobe: misko27
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Faction leaders get bonuses to ALL rolls. This lead to the creation of several factions, which (in turn) lead to [[OhCrap someone with a higher bonus than anyone and a gun]] [[OneHitKO that kills any player in one hit]] [[DeathIsCheap (temporarily,]] [[ContinuingIsPainful although with a lowered bonus if a faction leader)]].
* BadBoss: [[EvilOverlord misko27]] threatened GreatWyrmGold repeatedly for his questioning of the former's orders and arguments with Xantalos.
* BeleagueredAssistant: [[OnlySaneEmployee GreatWyrmGold]] saw himself as this while working with misko27.
* BigBad: Originally the lich.
* BossBanter: Also banter from...well, just about everyone.
* BossBattle: Originally. [[OffTheRails Not so anymore.]]
* BossGame: Originally. Now there's a lot of enemies to choose from, [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder mostly other players]].
* CardCarryingVillain: Xantalos, misko27, and a few others.
* TheChessmaster: misko27 attempted to be this. The dice had other ideas.
** As did GreatWyrmGold, Corai, Xantalos, pretty much everyone else...
* ChronicBackstabbingDisorder: Most people, to some extent.
** GreatWyrmGold has been accused of this to a great extent, due to not really fitting in with either of the two main factions. Currently, he is leaning more towards the Romantics.
* CloudCuckooLander: [[CloudCuckooLand Almost everyone.]]
* ConservationOfCompetence: Either [[StupidEvil misko27]] was a foolish leader leading (among others) [[OnlySaneMan GreatWyrmGold]], or [[EvilOverlord misko27]] was successful in stopping [[CloudCuckooLander Great]][[TheStarscream Wyrm]][[StupidGood Gold]] from attacking him.
* TheDragon: [[OmnicidalManiac Xantalos]] used to be one for [[EvilOverlord misko27]].
** Long before that, Corai was the main (if not sole) minion for the lich, and remarkably effective.
* DeathIsCheap: Players typically return within a turn.
* DuelBoss: At one point, Corai and the lich could be seen as this. Currently, the Paladins see [[StarCrossedLovers Dirg and the lichette]] as this.
* ExactTimeToFailure: Subverted; the countdown didn't do anything when it hit 0.5, and hasn't dropped past that.
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: [[OmnicidalManiac Xantalos]]'s attempts to destroy the universe.
* FaceHeelTurn: Corai defected to the lich's side early on. Later on, either Dirg or misko27 did as well.
* FinalBoss: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Of course!]]
* FollowTheLeader: Presumably why so many people started starting factions.
* GenderBender: The lich, after many transformations, became a "lichette" and [[InterspeciesRomance married Dirg]]. Corai was later attacked with Rule 63 and turned into the leader of womanly women by Misko.
** Dirg is often accused of this.
* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Tim showed up without much explanation beyond, "There are too many factions."
* HeelFaceTurn: Possibly when GreatWyrmGold formed the [[TakeAThirdOption Moderates]].
* LongRunner: For a minimalist Roll to Dodge, at least. Most don't reach 30 pages; YaFB has over ''200'', plus an Out of Character thread of about the same length.
* LoneWolfBoss: Any faction leader not directly associated with the lich can be seen as this.
* MarathonBoss: As noted by the Long Runner entry, it's taken a while...and the lich still isn't dead!
* NotSoDifferent: Pick any two major factions.
** Romantics and Paladins: Both are led by evil people.
** Paladins and Moderates: The Moderates now possess the most devastating weapon in the game (as of this point), despite seceding from the Paladins because of their [[StupidEvil maniacal]] tendencies.
* NewBossNewDimension: Played with. New dimensions were entered regularly early on, ranging from Hell to the galactic core to [[Portal Aperture Science]] to [[RunningGag ''a mountain of ice cream]]...
* OldShame: At one point, the thread title was YOU AT FINAL BOSS: SOURCE OF MY GREAT SHAME.
* OmnicidalManiac: Xantalos, until he gave up, destroyed a [[Spore]] universe, and founded [[TestosteronePoisoning the Manly Men faction]].
** Also da_nang's Void faction
* OnlySaneMan: GreatWyrmGold claims to be this, and while he's a bit crazy himself, [[CloudCuckooLand he may be right]].
* [[OnlySaneEmployee Only Sane Minion:]] GreatWyrmGold saw himself as this while working under misko27.
* OurLichesAreDifferent: The lich has undergone many transformations, including an orb which was the source of all magic and a "lichette." He also had a blade made of souls of the damned for a while.
* PlayableEpilogue: For a single turn.
* RunningGag: Early on, ice cream made an appearance in many failed rolls.
* ThePowerOfFriendship: Allegedly the only way to defeat the lich. [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Never confirmed.]]
* TheStarscream: [[EvilOverlord misko27]] saw [[LawfulGood GreatWyrmGold]] to be this.
* ThatOneAttack: Tim's [[OneHitKill g]][[BroughtDownToNormal u]][[ContinuingIsPainful n]]
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: After the epilogue, lampshaded with a PotHole to THisVeryWiki by Corai.
-> GreatWyrmGold: I still hit my goal. [[SesquidellanLocquaciousness Female canine.]]
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Early on, this was common. Later, Spinal_Taper stopped this, to prevent headaches on his part.
* WeaksauceWeakness: The lich was supposedly weak to teamwork. [[WithFriendsLikeThese This was never confirmed.]]
* WideOpenSandbox: People have gone off and done crazy things unrelated to fighting the lich or whomever, notably Yoink's drunken escapades.
* WithFriendsLikeThese: More than once, people have been backstabbed by others allegedly working with them in the past, or even [[ExaggeratedTrope ''ones currently working FOR them'']]!
