Dewicked trope


* EnigmaticMinion: Alaster, possibly. His intentions with those [[WeaponOfChoice meat hooks]] may not be pure, but at least he seems to have his own [[DragonWithAnAgenda ideas]]...

** Trevor and Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann, though that's probably because of his [[WeaponOfChoice blatant use of]] [[ThisIsADrill DRILLS.]]

* SinisterScythe: Lampshaded and Discussed. Merry's WeaponOfChoice is a scythe and she KNOWS it's a terrible weapon, to the point of practically quoting the page this trope uses to define it.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


** [[MesACrowd Cerene]] plays this trope straight and manages to do this with ''[[UpToEleven herself]]'', using her 'Mind Prism' to divide her personality traits. Red is her aggressiveness and her "[[BloodKnight cool badass beat-up-everyone ideas]]", grey is her stealth and [[DeadpanSnarker cynicism]], and blue is left with only her people skills and "[[TheDitz the ditz brain]]".

Nice Hat is now a disambiguation page.

* CastHerd: While having LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters, Suppression does break them up into smaller groups and swaps focus between them.

* CastHerd: While having LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters, numerous characters, Suppression does break them up into smaller groups and swaps focus between them.



* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Suppression has a sizeable amount of characters distributed among all the various factions, and they keep throwing more characters in them.

Deleted Five Man Band example - zero-context. Part of TRS Wick Cleaning - cannot expand due to unfamiliarity.


* FiveManBand: Albeit with no clearly defined hero.

* CulturalPosturing: Bartleby just oozes this when he doesn't even acknowledge the humans as relevant when scheming with Maggie about their evil plot. You [[CantArgueWithElves can't argue with Bartleby]] after all because [[OurElvesAreBetter Thal'nasians are clearly better than everyone else]].

* TheUndead: The Wights apparently all are... but they seem to be varying degrees of dead-ness.

to:

* TheUndead: TheUndead[=/=]EliteZombie: The Wights apparently all are... thematic. All of them except their two necromancers are undead, and each one plays to a different archetype.
** Maxwell Wight is a Vampire.
** Arthur Wight is a Necromancer, who later becomes a Lich.
** Alaster Wight is a Ghoul or Feral Zombie.
** Sammantha Wight is an UndeadChild.
** Jericho Wight is based on the "toxic zombie" archetype, although he works off toxic breath and blood rather than stomach juices.
** King Law is a Death Knight.
** Sigvaldi the Exile is a Lich.
** WilliamWight is a FleshGolem, with the added remix of being powered by Souls. Lots and lots of souls.
** Eric Duril, while not a Wight, is raised by them, and becomes the token Ghost.
** Azgrut, again, is not a wight,
but they seem his cybernetic appearance plays off the ArtificialZombie trope, even if he was raised the normal way. He was just missing a few parts that needed to be varying degrees of dead-ness.replaced afterwards.

Added DiffLines:

* PlotBasedVoiceCancellation: It's very clear that Kevin and Solstice had a conversation during his NightmareSequence but it's purposely obscured. Clearly the dialogue was enough to reveal a small portion of Solstice's back story, but not enough to fully understand what they were talking about before he wakes up.

* InsanityImmunity: Charlie has this in spades and people are rather interested in also acquiring this immunity [[spoiler: due to the fact that William the super zombie will take over people's minds and kill them from the inside without it]].

What makes it worse is that [[AltText the author]] states there's apparently more than just plot relevant information that no one can see as they're obscured by the characters.

* InSeriesNickname: "Merry" is an AffectionateNickname from her brother Alaster, to which she [[DoNotCallMePaul insists on being called by it rather than her real name]]. "Sammy" for Samantha Wight is also another one, but instead she insists on being called her first name. Charlie as TheNicknamer conveniently gives everyone [[MeaningfulName meaningful nicknames]] in the form of mythological references.
