** In one bonus page, Riddly asks Jack of ''Webcomic/VampirePhantasm'' why he's the one to get all the fan art. Jack then explains that it's his dark allure, and that Riddly would probably get more if he came over to their more serious story for a little bit. Riddly then pictures himself getting stabbed by [[BigBad Orlock]], as Jack often does, and chooses to turn him down. Ironically, Jack and Orlock would later run into Riddly and give him help in tracking down Attez.

What makes ''Cwen's Quest'' stand out, though, is its bizarre original setting, which fuels much of its humor and doesn't dip into the usual sources like ''WorldOfWarcraft'', ''Tabletopgame/DungeonsAndDragons'' or ''Franchise/FinalFantasy''. In a world where wolf-men run hordes of invaders as tight-fisted CEO, the mysterious [=FauX=] group runs magic like science, a girl has a paralyzing fear of hats, and giant apes with British accents fight dragons, hilarity seems to be the only option left to most characters.

''[[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest Cwen's Quest]]'' is a webcomic written by Nick Stroffolino and drawn by Sarah N. It stars Cwen, an angry ex-princess with tiny wings; Riddly, her mysterious life slave, and Wendy, her cute stuffed animal companion and wise sage, all on Cwen's titular quest for revenge against her father. Despite the premise, the comic has thus far avoided getting too serious and tends to address serious situations with black humor.

The story takes place in a strange fantasy world years after the titular character, Cwen, has been exiled via a swift kick off a cliff, and left for dead by her father Lord Attez. When Cwen returns she finds her father long gone and chaos in his absence. Cwen's interest is in getting even with her father, but she is forced to help some people along the way in order to find him, gaining a few allies as she does so. The story tends to jump between the past and the present frequently through various narrative devices to show various characters' back stories and dropping plot points to be explained in the present.

What makes ''Cwen's Quest'' stand out though is its bizarre original setting, which fuels much of its humor and doesn't dip into the usual sources like WorldOfWarcraft, ''DungeonsAndDragons'' or ''FinalFantasy''. In a world where wolf-men run hordes of invaders as tight-fisted CEO, the mysterious FauX group runs magic like science, a girl has a paralyzing fear of hats, and giant apes with British accents fight dragons, hilarity seems to be the only option left to most characters.

''Cwen's Quest'' also features a creator blog which dives into mostly unrelated side stories about other adventures living in the CQ universe. The author himself seems to be an avid TV Tropes fan as he has written trope examples at least twice into the comic in response to people putting the comic as examples on tropes that didn't really fit.

''[[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest Cwen's Quest]]'' is a webcomic written by Nick Stroffolino and drawn by Sarah N. It stars Cwen, an angry ex-princess with tiny wings, Riddly, her mysterious life slave, and Wendy, her cute stuffed animal companion and wise sage, are all on Cwen's titular quest for revenge against her father. Despite the premise, the comic has thus far avoided getting too serious and tends to address serious situations with black humor.

The story takes place in a strange fantasy world years after the titular character Cwen has been exiled via a swift kick off a cliff, and left for dead by her father Lord Attez. When Cwen returns she finds her father long gone and chaos in his absence. Cwen's interest is in getting even with her father, but is forced to help some people along the way in order to find him, gaining a few allies as she does so. The story tends to jump between the past and the present frequently through various narrative devices to show various characters' back stories and dropping plot points to be explained in the present.

What makes Cwen's Quest stand out though is its bizarre original setting, which fuels much of its humor and doesn't dip into the usual sources like WorldOfWarcraft, DungeonsAndDragons or FinalFantasy. In a world where wolf-men run hordes of invaders as tight-fisted CEO, the mysterious FauX group runs magic like science, a girl has a paralyzing fear of hats, and giant apes with British accents fight dragons, hilarity seems to be the only options left to most characters.

Cwen's Quest also features a creator blog which dives into mostly unrelated side stories about other adventures living in the CQ universe. The author himself seems to be an avid TV Tropes fan as he has written trope examples at least twice into the comic in response to people putting the comic as examples on tropes that didn't really fit.

This comic provides examples of:
* AbusiveParents: Lord Attez shouldn't be allowed to have children...and he has tons!
* TheAce: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=416976 Gram Trellion]]
* ActionGirl: Cwen.
* AmusingInjuries: Inverted. While many characters have suffered amusingly painful slap stick style harm character has consistently shown to be actually harmed by these including keeping broken limbs for whole story arcs and secondary characters keep scars from being set on fire.
* AprilFoolsDay: A fake cover was put up for chapter 5, it helped that the update naturally fell on April 1st.
* ArtShift: A small one when the comic gained limited color Sin City style.
* ArtificialLimbs: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=609460 One of the Sabril's has one of these.]]
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Cwen and Sabril settle the issue of who should be the Witch Queen by building things to fight for them.
* BackStory: We frequently get flashbacks to Cwen and later Sven's past.
* BadassBoast: Riddly has a few of these when he isn't having a bad day.
* BattleAura: Riddly gets one of these a couple of time when he is particularly powerful. No idea what triggers them.
* BerserkButton: Trel does not like hats. AT ALL.
* BestServedCold: The point of Cwen's...well, quest!
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Riddly is a nice happy go lucky guy who will beat someone to death with a fish if you ask him.
* BigBadassWolf: Vorg, Owner and CEO of Team Vorg
* BigBrotherMentor: More like big sister, Wendy.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: The Attez family. Attez personally screws up all his kids and the fan theory is he kills his wives.
* BladeOnAStick: Cwen's weapon of choice, a polearm.
* BloodyHilarious: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=352132 On the page aptly title SPLAT.]]
* CallingYourAttacks: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=523111 Blind side attack fool!]]
* TheCameo: Mostly from the artist's other comic, ''Vampire Phantasm'', and the author's wife's comic, ''Charby the Vampirate''. Some have even become regular characters in ''Cwen's Quest''.
* CatGirl: Symus
* CatchPhrase: Minor characters only, it seems.
* ChainmailBikini: Averted. When going to war everyone wears armor.
* ChallengingTheChief: This is one of two options for settling disputes over who has the right to be the Witch Queen, though like good magic using nobles they create champions rather then fight themselves.
* TheChewToy: Fans really seem to like it when bad things happen to Riddly.
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Subverted
* CompanionCube: The Nemesis Cube and the Companion Pyramid.
* CloningBlues: Averted. The Sabrils get along just fine and seems to consider each other equals.
* CouldntFindAPen: Inverted. Ulric likes scrawling notes on himself, then on scantily clad assistants, then on ''naked'' assistants, and eventually on the armor of the nearest guard.
* CowardlyLion: Zergarem the Destroyer
* CreepyChild: Lyria complete with tentacles.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Riddly, mainly due to his short attention span.

* DeadPanSnarker: Wendy Weasel.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Essex reaction to a [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=508100 Giant Ape fighting a Dragon]] derailing his battle plan.
* DisproportionateRetribution: A lot of people seem to want this in CQ but so far none of them have gotten any. In particular, Sven wants to ''kill'' Cwen just because their father used to mistake him for her due to the fact they look and their names sound sort of the same...and he's never even met her before!
* DropWhatYouAreDoing: Riddly does this often.
* DualWielding: Essex Forrester with both swords and axes.
* EqualOpportunityEvil: Team Vorg
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses Averted

* GoshDangitToHeck: Frex!
* HairOfGold: Subverted
* HandsomeLech: Gram Trellion, gentleman adventurer

* HonorBeforeReason: Averted [[spoiler: The Witch Queen would have gladly just had Cwen killed on the spot when she challenged her to an honor duel for the throne and only didn't because of Cwen's very large dragon at the time.]]
* HumanSacrifice: The original Witch Queen had literally sacrificed all the children in her kingdom that could be found.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Cwen loathes her siblings just for being born because her father, whom she wants to kill, kicked her out when a younger sibling was born. She is aware this makes no sense but that hasn't done much to change her mind.
* InstantBandages
* IOweYouMyLife: Life slaves are part of Riddly's culture
* ItOnlyWorksOnce: Riddly's powers

* MoodWhiplash: It is a lot less then most adventure comedies but still.
* MrExposition: Ulric gives a power point assisted exposition twice for the benefit of a confused Riddly.
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: This seems to be Team Vorg's business model. "Vision, Community, Scorched Earth Tactics"
* MysteriousPast: We know very little of Riddly before he entered the comic. Then again no one ever asks Riddly.
* NaughtyTentacles: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=637321 Averted]]
* NotSoHarmless: [[spoiler:Ulric as he turns out to be Lord Attez]]
* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler: Cwen remembers Lord Attez as one of these. Later when Riddly meets him he turns out to be a brilliant scientist studying magic.]]
* OneOfUs: List Cwen on a TV trope it doesn't really fit under and expect a better example to appear in the comic before too long.
* OnlySaneMan: Wendy is frequently the one in this position. Strangely she doesn't seem to mind.
* OurTimeTravelIsDifferent: Looks like it might be the wormhole type.
* Padding: Chapter 6 possibly forgivable if you consider the they used them time to get a huge buffer for the comic.
* ParentalAbandonment: All of Attez' kids get exiled.
* PlanetOfHats: Er... not ''quite''. An entire dimension of [[NiceHat hats. Nothing but hats.]]
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Averted. "Team Vorg is equal opportunity and does not judge after all."
* PowerGlows: Riddly when he is "in the zone"
* PutOnABus: Essex who simply left off panel between chapters with no indication of where he was going but since Cwen owes him a HUGE favor odds are good he'll be back to collect.

* RoyalBlood: Cwen was abducted once as a child because she has both Royal and Demon blood.
* RunningGag: Many lesser characters have these.
** [[CatchPhrase Your Mother.]]
* SchizoTech: For the most part CQ seems like an off beat fantasy world but if you see a FauX logo on something that seems to go out the window.
* SheCleansUpNicely: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=429631 Subverted]]
* ShoutOut: [[http://www.drunkduck.com/Cwens_Quest/index.php?p=651452 this page]] is full of them.
* ShownTheirWork: Inverted. The author doesn't research since the comic runs on rules of funny but will come up with detailed explinations for questions asked by fans.
