GenreSavvy and awareness of game mechanics is universal, and a source of much of the humor. The art style and premise were inspired by the ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'', but ''Keychain'' spends less time [[LampshadeHanging lampshading]] the conventions of the [=RPGs=] and fantasy stories and more time on the over-the-top action that made ''{{TabletopGame/Exalted}}'' famous.
Unfortunately, the webcomic is on hiatus as the author is recovering from tendonitis. Even so, he has been devoting the time he would have otherwise spent on the comic to writing homebrew material for the ''Exalted'' setting, which is worth a look at. It is currently not known when (or unfortunately "if") it will begin updating again, as tendonitis can take a long time to heal (and also has the possibility of turning chronic, hence the "if").

Which may give you an idea of just how powerful the guys at the top of the chain are (since Ben and Flame, two of their "weakest" members, are incredibly powerful). Especially the heads of "Equipment" and "Guerilla," who were sent off to go and do some serious ass-kicking to The First And Forsaken Lion's enemies. Remember, equipment includes weaponry... like giant essence cannons.
