* FluffyTamer: A staple of the serie, as you can tame and rear pretty much every non-boss monster (and then some) in the games, including wolves, trolls, giants, golems, ghosts and so on.

** Referenced in the setting description of RuneFactory4's manual; apparently the change to Zzyzx was temporary, and [[LampshadeHanging "may have been a practical joke, or perhaps the result of temporary delirium due to illness"]].

* DyingLikeAnimals: The townsfolk of Kardia respond to [[spoiler: the imminent [[TheEmpire Sechs]] armed invasion]] by… carrying out their daily routines as usual, except peppered with some bits of worried dialogue. Apparently, the week-in-advance notice they got was too short to even think of evacuating less than a couple dozen people.
** On the same vein, the Kingdom of Norad seemed surprisingly indiferent to armed excursions into their frontier towns, even with an informant posted there keeping them up to date.

* ColorCodedStones: The series has purple amethysts, red rubies, green emeralds, and white diamonds. However, it also has deep blue aquamarines, so the sapphires end up being pink instead of the usual blue.

* NonIdleRich: The de Sainte-Coquille family. The family works for its wealth, and uses its wealth and conncections to fund public spaces and organize most of the festivals. Also implied that they're responsible for shipping the player's crops and importing most products not produced locally.

** Mostly subverted, though. Every game has elves and/or dwarves living in mainly human settlements, with the only sign of racism between the three races being Jake's attitude toward humans.

Added DiffLines:

** Most professionals whose skills can be practiced by the player's skills can seem like this too. Though they may be described as "experts" or "the best" by the local villagers and brag about their years of experience and skill, the quality of merchandise they provide is only average at best and the player character can usually produce better equipment than they sell in just a few seasons.
