* In-between several recurring villains, [[MonsterOfTheWeek Monsters of the Week]], and personal drama, ''WesternAnimation/RoswellConspiracies'' plays with the concept of a HiddenVillain antagonist for the majority of the series in the form of an enigmatic traitor in the Alliance's ranks that drives much of the most important conflicts of the plot. Towards the end of the series, the BigBad is revealed as none other than [[spoiler:General Rinaker, or rather a Shadoen agent named Wraith taking his place,]] who -- being behind both the disappearance of Nick's father, the corruption of the Alliance, and the various acts of sabotage -- essentially sets up and drives the series' MythArc.

* BigBad: General Rinaker, [[spoiler:aka the Shadoen agent Wraith.]]

* WellIntentionedExtremist: Most of the main alien antagonists are shown to be this, mainly wanting to defend their people from whatever threats they see. The only real exceptions are the Aesiri, who are just AxCrazy psychopaths who want to kill everything in sight, and Hanek, who's ''much'' more self-serving than every other vampire lord (including his own successor). [[spoilerIt takes the threat of annihilation from the Shadoen armada to actually get them to work together.]]

* WalkingSpoiler: Wraith's true identity.

* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: The show specializes in all sorts of nasty (for the age group) deaths, but the worst likely has to go to [[spoiler:Trueblood]], who's viciously ''torn apart'' by a Shadoen. We're ''just'' spared the details of the actual carnage through a GoryDiscretionShot, but we get [[spoiler:Trueblood's]] howling, agonized death scream in place of it and his knife, still covered in his adversary's blood, falling to the ground in the next shot.

* FakeDefector: Lobo

[[spoiler: He eventually becomes friends with Nick Logan and an agent for the Alliance.]]

* BelligerentSexualTension: Occasionally played with by Nick and Sh'lainn, but they get through it fairly quick. [[spoiler: By episode 14 they've had their first kiss and by the first half of Season 2 they've had declarations of love.]]

* {{Atlantis}}:[[spoiler: The first to fight, and drive off, the Shadoens.]]

* DetonationMoon: The GrandFinale opens with a shot of [[spoiler:the Shedoan fleet]] blowing up the moon and uses the Eiffel Tower Effect several times over to demonstrate in minute detail exactly how much destruction blowing up the moon actually causes. The whole thing is soon revealed to be a simulation, though they still plan on blowing up the moon.

The main character is Nick Logan, a BountyHunter who finds one of his marks is a little more than meets the eye. Soon after he receives a contract to track down another, a banshee named Sh'lainn Blaze. The two wind up saving each other's life and begin working together to figure out who's trying to kill them, only to wind up working for said organization, Nick so he can find out what happened to his father, Sh'lainn because she's been exiled from her clan and has no where else to go. It eventually builds up with a slow MythArc involving alien invaders, werewolves, vampires, banshee and other aliens all coming to a head by the 40th episode.
