* OurWerebeastsAreDifferent: Feralized Reyn can transmit their "condition" to others by [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=303 bite]], [[spoiler: and eventually learn to transform at will.]]

* TookALevelInBadass: Under the influene of a shapeshifting spell, Sierra [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=340 starts dishing out the pain]].

''[[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/ Crimson Flag]]'' is a fantasy furry action/adventure semi-medieval-themed webcomic by Kendo Virmir about two tribes of anthropomorphic foxes that don't quite get along. The Red Reyn (red foxes) conquered Reynland long ago, and the Grays (gray foxes) found themselves owing fealty to a crown no longer their own. Regardless, peace followed for many a year after the long war. Until, of course, someone had a brilliant plan.

* UnusualEuphemism: "Frazz", and "trees" (used specifically by Grays).

Regardless, peace followed for many a year after the long war. Until, of course, someone had a brilliant plan.

* ArtificialLimbs: Sir Bryce's "gauntlet", seemed to suggest that Ludovic took it off.
* AttractiveBentGender: At one point, Julien and Sierra have to escape from Alopexia (the arctic capital) while a photo of them is being circulated. For a disguise, Julien gender-swaps them. Sierra's male form is absolutely ripped, and Julien's female form is pretty chesty.

* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Greys hit by the Staff's BalefulPolymorph eventually learn how to parse its dweomers and unlock VoluntaryShapeshifting, and how to replicate-and manipulate-it, leading to Lord Julien transforming a tribe of Muridens he'd come to rule over during his time in the Chasm of Woe into {{Super Soldier}}s, and Lucian being able to GenderBender himself and Sierra as disguises.

* EyepatchOfPower: Ludovic, implied that Bryce took it out. His dad had two of them and a hook hand.
* FantasticRacism: There's some bad blood between Reds against Greys. Not helped by Lord Julian's suspicion of the Red government in his father's assassination.

* MagicKnight: Bryce, though he doesn't cast spells just uses magic weapons. Many Grey warriors, given their innate talent for magic, even Lucian uses a sword.

* PowerLevels: By Caerreyn's ranking system Lucian is a level three mage, Sierra just recently achieved level two, and the archmage is level four. And even though the Greys have no formal system Julian is estimated to be equivalent to a level four.

* SummonMagic: It is possible to summon elemental spirits, but this kind of magic is banned by the Red's religion as an affront to the Lady of the Stars, while the Greys believe the Lady is simply a powerful and jealous spirit and embrace summoning. [[spoiler: Late in the series, it turns out the Lady banished the other spirits to another dimension and they're only able to project themselves to willing bonds.]]

* TreeTopTown: The Grey Reyn of the Auberwood build their homes in the upper levels of living trees, appropriate for an arboreal species. The [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=94 Relran Tree]] is particularly notable.

* UnEqualRites: According to the Reds' religion, SummonMagic is evil. However, that same magic is a long-held tradition of the Greys.

* UnusualEuphemism: "Frazz", and "trees" (used specifically by Greys).

* {{Weredragon}}: [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=63 Emiline]] can transform from a Grey Reyn to a three-eyed dragon, seemingly at will. [[spoiler: It eventually turns out she was accidentally fused with the dragon Vraigus before birth, and he is ''not happy'' about being stuck in a child's body.]]

* BulletProofVest: The one [[spoiler: Lucian's stepmother]] was wearing turns out to be [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=307 not quite thick enough]]. But it still helps her survive the attack.

* [[SciFiWritersHaveNoSenseOfScale Fantasy Writers Have No Sense of Scale]]: [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=11 Caerreyn's]] population of 700 is said to be "unimaginable". However, this may have some truth in it, because people in the old times could not really count.

%%* MuggingTheMonster: Early on some street urchins tried to mug [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=8 Lucian]].

* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Come in two forms, wyverns that seem little more than pests, albeit hazardous to poorly armed airships, attracted to magic. And large dragons with three eyes that can assume Reyn form and either infect Reyn or KillAndReplace them judging by [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=289 these]] [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=290 two]] comics. However the [[http://crimsonflagcomic.com/comic.php?comicID=308 story Emiline's mother gave]] suggests [[spoiler: the latter.]]
