* HumansAreBastards: Subverted; according to Rat history/lore told by the gatekeeper of the rat city [[spoiler: rats were the first to become uplifted, but while the human scientists taught them how to read and write and live like humans, the rest of society saw them as freaks, ostracizing them, in turn causing the rats to hide and create their own civilization. Though not to say humans might not have been completely friendly to them before the uplifting. Despite the fact that they might have been very unethical and painful experiments, the animals in the end were grateful for being uplifted.]]

* AndManGrewProud: The introduction takes the form of a series of cave paintings, with the narrator explaining how Humans created the various races of Morph. Before they could teach the Morph the secret of happiness, however, some terrible calamity befell them. Now the Humans have gone - where, no Morph knows - and their furry children can only wonder at the strange things they left behind.

* ArtificialAnimalPeople: The sapient bipedal animals that make up the cast are descended from animals uplifted by humanity before a disaster wiped them out. The opening narration states that humans gave them "reaching hands" as well as "thinking minds", and the introductory cinematic shows cave paintings of humanoid animals, so it's likely that they were designed to be humanoid rather than being typical {{Uplifted Animal}}s.

* HumanitysWake: It appears that the human race was wiped out by a plague (judging from the cave painting of them running away from a {{Mega Microbe|s}} in the intro cutscene), leaving their Morph creations behind.

* RagnarokProofing: Plenty of it, especially in the Northern Lands where [[spoiler:an airport]] shows only a rudimentary amount of decay, including technology that is still properly operating to this day. Perhaps the silliest example is in ''Quest for the Orb'' when you run across a digital clock that runs on a battery, and the battery is ''still working'' despite the humans having been presumed dead for centuries. That said, the comic later on justifies it by having some old packaging for the batteries remark that they have a 1000-year life.
