History Webcomic / MysticRevolution

* FiveManBand: (Doesn't really consist of 5 people, but members come in and out of focus and slot into the roles)
** TheHero: Lourdes
** TheLancer: L33t_ninj4, [=XXXGothgirl666XXX=]
** TheBigGuy: Toasty
** TheSmartGuy: Aeiryn, Lilly
** TheChick: Lilly, sometimes L33t_ninj4

* BadassBeard: [[http://www.mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=636 A beard so epic]] that the character requires little clothing.

** Toasty, even more so. Unlike some of the characters at the start of the tournament arc, he single-handedly takes on a boss that has one of the tournament keys... and wins. Given that most of those bosses require either a high-level top-tier character or an entire party to take down, it's a testament to both his skill and [[CrazyAwesome his insanity]] that he is able to take one on and win. Apparently, being too dumb to realize you should lose really can work in a video game.

''Mystic Revolution'' is an action/adventure webcomic set in an {{MMORPG}} that follows a pyromaniac sorceress and a not-so-l33t ninja who follows her around. Together they experience the excitement of leveling, love and lots of beer.

* LethalJokeCharacter: Bards in 1on1 PvP with large spectator crowds. Literally. L33t_ninj4 is kind of playing the ninja-class that way (by using very unconventional and underused skill-combinations), in contrast to the more serious ninjas like Moxie who play for professional effectiveness.

* WickedCultured: Machiavelli, who quotes SunTzu.

* CrazyAwesome: Toasty, with an emphasis on the Crazy

* ActionGirl - Lourdes, Gothgirl.
* BadassBeard - [[http://www.mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=636 A beard so epic]] that the character requires little clothing.
* {{BFS}} - Toasty seems to ascribe to the policy that bigger is better.
* BeehiveBarrier - A special paladin defense called the [[http://www.mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=624 Phalanx]].
* BerserkButton - Don''t call [[{{Bifauxnen}} Aeiryn]] a man [[note]]see below[[/note]] or [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Link]].
* {{Bifauxnen}} - Aeiryn, who [[BerserkButton really hates being mistaken for a man]].
* BigBad - Machievelli

* CatGirl - Lots of these, main characters Gothgirl and Lily among them.
* CallingYourAttacks - Pretty much all of them. It does take place in a video game, after all.
* ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve - Kenmore's ''Hell's Bells'' skill, a status buff which gives him power equivalent to the laughter of the audience.
* CrazyAwesome - Toasty, with an emphasis on the Crazy
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass - L33t_ninj4. He's shown to be a player who saves everything he collects from adventuring, uses equipment considered to be joke items, and abilities considered weak and underpowered by other gamers. He makes them work.

* EldritchAbomination - Man, those healers have some [[http://www.mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=106 strict bosses]].
* {{Expy}} - WordOfGod said Alistairfan3 has the backstory of [[Anime/YuGiOh Joey Wheeler]]. However, it is done with a little more sense here. Alistair ''does'' have a job, and he's not throwing ''everything'' up in the air to go to some far off island, but rather using his spare time to hack up rare gear in a popular online game which he will sell on E-Bay.

* FallingIntoHisArms - Complete with a "Hello, beautiful."
* FangirlJapanese - Lilly sometimes can't even go two sentences without making some inane remark in Japanese or attaching honorifics to her teammates' names.
* FieryRedhead - Lourdes to a T.
* FiveManBand (Doesn't really consist of 5 people, but members come in and out of focus and slot into the roles)
** TheHero - Lourdes
** TheLancer - L33t_ninj4, [=XXXGothgirl666XXX=]
** TheBigGuy - Toasty
** TheSmartGuy - Aeiryn, Lilly
** TheChick - Lilly, sometimes L33t_ninj4
* FunbagAirbag - [[http://mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=277 Of all the guys to pull this it's the ninja... Oy...]]

* LethalJokeCharacter - Bards in 1on1 PvP with large spectator crowds. Literally. L33t_ninj4 is kind of playing the ninja-class that way (by using very unconventional and underused skill-combinations), in contrast to the more serious ninjas like Moxie who play for professional effectiveness.
* LovableSexManiac - Gothgirl, all over.
* MasterOfIllusion - Fata Morgana, a [[InterfaceScrew Mesmerizer]].
* MeaningfulName - Machiavelli.
* PhysicalGod - The Server [=AIs=], with Joline being the avatar of the Primary Server, thus the most powerful of them all.
* PlayfulHacker - Lilly.

* PlayingWithFire - Lourdes. 'Nuff said.

* TechnicolorFire - Lourdes' flames are a pink-ish color for the most part (when we see them in color anyhow). Granted, they're pink because that's actually her Moderator powers manifesting as an attack.
* TechnicolorNinjas - L33t-ninja's outfit is about as stealthy [[http://mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=452 as a brick to the head]] in bright sky blue that makes him look like "Sub-Zero's bitch".
* TookALevelInBadass - L33t_ninj4, Toasty and Lilly, of course. Toasty is the most obvious one with his changed personality.
* TournamentArc - The series is going through one currently. It is taken quite a while, from strip 473 to current (strip 1000+)
* {{Tsundere}} - Lourdes. Gothgirl even [[LampshadeHanging calls it]] well into the TournamentArc.
* TheVamp - Gothgirl doesn't think twice about seducing others to get what she wants.
* YaoiFangirl - Lily, at least evidenced by [[http://www.mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=302 this strip]]
* YouHaveFailedMe - [[http://mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=325 "Consider yourself banned."]]
* WickedCultured - Machiavelli, who quotes SunTzu.

* TournamentArc - The series is going through one currently.

* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass - L33t_ninj4.

** Videogame/FinalFantasyXI get's a number of references, to in game abilities, and classes. During a orientation meeting before the Tournament begins, some Male Neko NPCs appear, with Lourdes and Gothgirl mentioning that this is a first, and wondering if they'll be added, which is a similar situation [=FFXI=] had when they saw Lehko Habhoka, the only male Mithra ever seen at that point during the Wings of the Goddess expansion.

** GothGirl jokingly(?) implies that she may really be a GIRL in real life

* [[TransformtionIsAFreeAction Powering Up is a Free Action]]: Zigzags throughout the story. Some power up abilities take up almost no time at all, such as Lourdes casting a Rune Spread buff. Others, like Berserk, can be powered up gradually, but leaves you vulnerable while doing so. However, full blown transformation processes, such as ''[[TransformationSequence Runic Spread #63, Celestial Formation]]'' leave the user completely vulnerable...or would be if Lourdes wasn't such a [[http://mysticrevolution.keenspot.com/index.php?cid=667 fangirl]] of MagicalGirlWarrior anime.

* GenderBender: The Rune Soldier's ''Runic Spread #63, Celestial Formation'' causes the user to go through a MagicalGirlWarrior TransformationSequence. As in, your character will be made into a female character with new charm abilities, whether your a guy, or a girl normally.
** GothGirl jokingly(?) implies that she may really be a GIRL in real life

* RainOfArrows: FeatherRae, a Seraph archer, pulls this off by her self twice with a move called ''Eclipse Arrow''. Essentially, it's a TrickArrow consisting of a large canister filled with a lot Crossbow Bolt sized arrows. Can literally be used to cause an eclipse of the sun, and cover an entire arena with arrows.
* RedEyesTakeWarning - Machiavelli fits into this comfortably.

* SanitySlippage - Toasty sees a penguin that tells him what to do.
* TechnicolorFire - Lourdes' flames are a pink-ish color for the most part (when we see them in color anyhow).

* ColdFlames - [[http://mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=230 Lourdes uses a variation of this]][[http://mysticrev.com/index.php?cid=231 on an NPC.]]
