5-->-- Yes, that sums it up pretty nicely.

7These games hosted at the [[Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick Giant In The Playground]] forums are part MegaCrossover, part MSTing. For one reason or another, a random assortment of characters from fiction have appeared in the world of a series considered to be poorly written (traditionally ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'' or ''Literature/InheritanceCycle''), frequently with some motivation to kill its main characters. The game ends when all main characters of the work are dead. Sounds like a HateFic, except that interactions between PlayerCharacters can make up a [[UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny significant]] [[OddCouple portion]] [[StoryBreakerTeamUp of the plot]], to the point where the series being "lynched" is little more than a backdrop.
8
9Over time, the "[[MarySueHunter kill all]] {{Mary Sue}}s" aspects have softened, to the point where some players will attempt to defend the canon characters, and some may be left alive at the end of the game. A game has even been run for ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' (which the players generally hold in high esteem).
10
11Originally each game took place in a separate continuity, with no interaction between them. [[NoFourthWall Unless you're]] ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}.
12* [[color:#eeee00:I can't help the way I am!]]
13Although as of game Twilight III there has been something of a ContinuityCreep leading to the games becoming part of a [[TheMultiverse multiverse]].
14
15The first game is currently being transcribed into a FanFic, which can be read [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6177364/1/Sunrise here]].

35!! These games provide examples of:
36* AdaptationExpansion: New characters and events will be added in the FanFic transcriptions.
37%% * CanonWelding: Taken to [[SerialEscalation increasing lengths]] in the later games.
38%% * ContinuityCreep
39* DeadlyDistantFinale: By [[WordOfGod Word of GM]], all characters in [[DeadFic abandoned games]] were eaten by [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Heartless]] after play stopped.
40%% * DeconstructionCrossover
41* ExcusePlot: Over time, the actual effects of the Twilight characters have become more of a catalyst for the resulting action than the cause of the main plotline.
42%% * FantasyKitchenSink
43%% * HateFic
44%% * MarySueHunter
45%% * MegaCrossover
46* PowerCreepPowerSeep: Characters frequently get "upgraded" due to having access to powers from other worlds (eg. [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alexander Anderson]] becoming ComicBook/TheSpectre). The canon characters are prone to this in particular, to present a greater challenge.
47* PublicDomainArtifact: At one point there have been at least four different versions of {{Excalibur}} in existence at a time.
48* RunningGag: ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} showing up at random to insult whoever is playing him.
49* SummonBiggerFish: The {{Game Master}}s tend to pull this whenever a PC becomes too powerful. [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alucard]] and [[Series/{{Heroes}} Sylar]] are popular for this.
50* UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny: The game has shifted more towards this over time.

142%% * BullyingADragon: Gotta feel sorry for that Shade...

144* DemonicPossession: Raistlin spends much of the game possessing the body of [[GenderBender Arya]]. Xellos finds this highly amusing.
145* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: After Lu-Tze agrees to train Leonidas's men. "Soon we shall have [[IKnowKarate kung-fu]] GenreSavvy [[BadassArmy Spartans]]! No force on Earth can stop that!"
146%% * ShoutOut: Creator/RaymondEFeist, Creator/DavidEddings, no shortage.
147* StoryBreakerPower: Raistlin's [[NoSell barrier-ignoring]] [[TeleportersAndTransporters teleportation magic]] let him run circles around everyone for most of the game, leading to easy teleportation being banned in later games. Not that it took.
148* StuffBlowingUp: Teirm and Dras'Leona are reduced to smouldering craters over the course of the game, in both cases the result of someone taunting Lina Inverse.

There were no heroes here (until Sanya showed up near the end) only varying shades of monsters, who would notice a few more? Unfortunately this time it isn't Edward making the insane plans to save their asses it is Carlilse and he has a few tricks up his sleave including those not of this world.

205----
206[[/folder]]
207%% * AntiHero: The main theme of this game.
208%% * ArtifactOfDoom: Too many to count.
209* CompositeCharacter: [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Iscariot]] and the [[{{Franchise/Nasuverse}} Executors]] are one and the same, with [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alexander Anderson]] as a member of the [[{{Franchise/Nasuverse}} Burial Agency]]. [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alucard]] is a member of [[{{Franchise/Nasuverse}} The 27 Dead Apostle Ancestors]]. [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Nicodemus]] claims to have founded Iscariot, implying that he is [[VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}} Michael Roa Valdamjong]]... somehow. Or maybe he's lying.
210%% * DancePartyEnding
211* DealWithTheDevil: Unusually, the devil wins every single time, cleanly and honestly. Sam gets himself run deeper and deeper and deeper into debt, for example.
212* DeathIsCheap: The GameMaster even admitted he didn't want to kill anyone. V, who does stay dead (part of a ThanatosGambit), is replaced by his successor, and everyone else finds a way to return.
213* EarnYourHappyEnding: While the tone of the game was very dark, note that by its end, the majority of villainous characters were either neutralized or killed.
214* TheEndOrIsIt: Nicodemus was killed, but The Devil promised him another life. And very soon afterwords, the Devil allows Sam his true love back...
215%% * FateWorseThanDeath: Averted. The fate is death. Just long, drawn out, messy death.
216* GeniusLoci: At one point, Jack Hawksmoor merges with the Archetype of The City.
217* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Lobo shows up twice, then leaves both times after doing very little. Also, Richard initially seems to be one of these.
218* HeroKiller: Aro is introduced as one of these. Unfortunately he becomes a target of overwhelming firepower. Sanya also killed a huge number of characters.
219* IndyPloy: In a departure from his usual use of ThePlan Nicodemus is forced to rely more and more on improvisation to achieve his aims, due to a lack of available resources on his part.
220* LetsYouAndHimFight: When both of them [[ImplacableMan refuse to die]], the [=PCs=] try to pull this on [[VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}} Nrvnqsr Chaos]] and [[Literature/SwordOfTruth a Blood Beast]]. It doesn't work.
221%% * MacGuffin: The boxes of Orden.
222* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Richard Rahl can do essentially anything.
223* NoFourthWall: Deadpool shows up, and gets into arguments with the GameMaster. Then Kirby bites him and the two bond.
224* OhCrap: From Sylar while fighting Nrvnqsr.
225-->"That's right, he had a dragon in him."
226* ThePlan: V pulled off a truly spectacular one against The Authority, killing off almost the entire roster, and if not for circumstances beyond his ability to forsee, he would probably have won. Light attempted one against The Authority, and whether he succeeded or not is really a question.
227* RecycledINSPACE: Kohaku ends up taking care of a serial killer locked in the basement of a mansion, while the residents feed on her blood. Again. Strangely, she was put in this situation by players unaware of the events of ''VisualNovel/{{Tsukihime}}''.
228%% * ShoutOut: (Please list the examples, as of now this is a Administrivia/ZeroContextExample.)
229* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: Nrvnqsr was finally killed by a large-scale ''airstrike'' of {{Hellfire}} missiles and napalm.
230%% * WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue
231* WickedCultured: V, doubling as a CulturedBadass. Carlisle also gives off this vibe, particularly when he has a talk with Kirby about the nature of evil. Nicodemus counts as well.
232* WrongGenreSavvy: Nicodemus attempts to deliver a NotSoDifferentRemark to a priest by making him doubt his methods and calling him a hypocrite. The priest is named Alexander Anderson.

294* ApocalypseHow: Which way do the Nazi's decide to end the world? All of them. At once.
295* AuthorTract: The Major will make grand speeches and sweeping declarations while around him the world burns, even moreso then in the original manga.
296* DragonWithAnAgenda: So Edward invited them to work for him. Yeah, that was going to happen.
297* EnemyMine: Red Skull is [[EvenEvilHasStandards so horrified]] by The Major that he asks ComicBook/CaptainAmerica for help. Subverted as this is just the bait to get him into a trap.
298* EvilIsNotAToy: Sure those [[ThoseWackyNazis Nazis]] will be happy to lend us [[GoneHorriblyRight their considerable resources and help us take over the world]]. Likewise, surely they will follow our instructions, despite being offered no real incentive to do so.
299* ForTheEvulz: It would almost be easier to list the characters who do have real, human motivations then the ones that don't.
300* {{Ghostapo}}: 666 Super zombies, one thousand vampires and no shortage of other toys to play with, these Nazis are occult as you could wish. Except when they aren't.
301* HijackedByGanon: Honestly, Edward Cullen, unpleasant though he is, was never going to compete with honest to gods Nazis in terms of sheer evil. Particularly these Nazis.
302* OmnicidalManiac: Rasputin believes that come the Ogdru Jahad, a paradise will be created out of the ruins of creation. The Major rather hopes that won't happen, and he'll drag the universe into oblivion with him.
303* PuttingOnTheReich: Ganon joins the Nazi Party, along with Mercer. Ganon is starting to have second thoughts, however, when he realizes just what he's getting into.
304* StupidJetpackHitler: Oh yes. If this game is anything to go by, it looks like the Nazis were much more advanced in 1945 then the the human race can ever reasonably expect to be.
305* VillainTeamUp: [[ComicBook/{{Hellboy}} Rasputin]], [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} The Major]], ComicBook/RedSkull and [[VideoGame/{{Wolfenstein}} Deathshead]] are all working together. Justified as they are all, well, Nazis.

348[[/folder]]
349* AccuseTheWitness: When Dracula is put on trial by the Justice League for his crimes, Death acts as his attorney. And claims that she is Dracula's accomplice and must receive the same punishment. Naturally, [[TheProblemWithFightingDeath there are problems with this]].
350* AdaptationFirst: Lancer from ''VideoGame/FateExtra'' shows up to increase the game's Dracula quotient, despite ''VideoGame/FateExtra'' not being released.
351* AfterTheEnd: The characters find themselves on a world that has just been ravaged by nazi's and the legions of hell, with life being reduced to a few fortresses where people only leave during the day to scavenge. It is abandoned towards the end of the game.
352* AllThereInTheManual: Some important revelations, expositions and explanations only occur in the OOC thread, such as explaining how attacks work, or why certain characters are acting in a certain way. For example, Green Arrow's reward for rescuing Black Canary from hell is a silver bowstring. In the OOC thread, its revealed that its unbreakable so long as his love for her remains.
353* AwesomeButImpractical: ComicBook/GreenArrow laments that most of his trick arrows are this, particularly his nuclear warhead arrow.
354* BigDamnHeroes:
355** Mephisto attempts to coerce Spiderman into a deal, only to be stopped by the arrival of ComicBook/GreenArrow. Doubles as a DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu, and yes he did. With a [[TrickArrow Boxing Glove Arrow]]
356** Another example was Dante and Blade arriving and seeing off Flagg when he was in the process of giving a Denarian to [[EnfantTerrible Baby Nicodemus]]
357* BreakThemByTalking: Several. A few even work.
358** Hannibal himself shows them all how it's done, reducing a Green Lantern to the point that he couldn't use his powers then maiming him, just by talking.
359* CanonWelding: Many examples:
360** [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Heartless]] are a manifestation of the same force as [[ComicBook/BlackestNight Black Lanterns]], which is opposed by [[Manga/GetterRobo Getter Rays]].
361** The [[ComicBook/{{Planetary}} multiversal snowflake]] is really the floor plan for a single floor of Franchise/TheDarkTower which is seen from most realities as [[Franchise/DCUniverse the Source Wall]].
362** Abraham van Hellsing used [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Soulfire]] to split [[{{Dracula}} Vlad Tepes]] into two entities, ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}''!Alucard being his human side and ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}''!Dracula being his demon side.
363*** [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Alucard]] is also the great-grandfather of [[Franchise/TouhouProject Remilia and Flandre Scarlet]], by Seras. It involved [[WhatDidIDoLastNight time travel and copious amounts of alcohol]].
364*** As if things weren't confusing enough, [[VideoGame/FateExtra the incarnation of Vlad Tepes prior to being split was summoned as a Servant]], meaning that there are at least ''[[RuleOfThree three]]'' Draculas running around (and [[VideoGame/MeltyBlood one fake Dracula]]).
365** ''Manga/{{Kekkaishi}}'' are descended from [[Franchise/TouhouProject Yukari Yakumo]].
366* CombatPragmatist: Everybody seems to be one, fighting dirty and doing whatever it takes to win, including ganging up and kicking them when they are down. Even people you'd never expect it from.
367* CompositeCharacter: Most are in some form or another
368** The Crimson King is [[Manga/FullmetalAlchemist Father]]. Ironically, at the start of the game Naoki and Minato put him on the path to discovering and taking the over The Dark Tower.
369** The [[Manga/GetterRobo Ryoma Nagare]] in this game is the sum of all possible versions of Ryoma Nagare. At least one of these was [[ShoutOut the father of an alternate version of ]][[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Asuka]].
370** [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Zexion]] is based on his characterization in ''Webcomic/AnsemRetort'', meaning he's essentially an enormous [[{{Jerkass}} Tool]]. Confusingly, Axel is not.
371** Every AnthropomorphicPersonification of [[TheGrimReaper Death]] is the same character. On occasion this means [[Franchise/{{Castlevania}} Dracula]] can be seen in the company of [[ComicBook/TheSandman a perky goth girl]].
372*** And Thanos is in love with her.
373** [[VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes Travis Touchdown]] has somehow become Series/KamenRiderKuuga.
374*** Several characters you wouldn't expect are Franchise/KamenRider. These include [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Axel]], ComicBook/ScottPilgrim, [[VideoGame/BrutalLegend Eddie Riggs]] and [[Series/TopGearUK The Stig]]. Very little explaination for this is given.
375** [[Creator/MarvelComics Odin Skyfather]] is revealed to have been one of the most important Gods from the [[ComicBook/NewGods The Third world]], all of whom were wiped out except Thor, and [[Literature/AmericanGods Wednesday]] is just a memory maintained by belief who wants to be a god again.
376* ContinuityCavalcade: Every character to appear in a previous game has at least made a cameo. Getting close to ContinuityPorn, as plots from completed games are picked up here as well.
377%% * CoolVersusAwesome
378* CosmicRetcon: Explicately one of the powers of the Crimson King, to the point where his minions keep on coming back to life after he alters what happens.
379* CrisisCrossover: Half the characters are drawn from previous games, and retain the abilities they picked up there (such as [[Manga/DeathNote Light Yagami]] becoming a [[Literature/TheDresdenFiles Denarian]] and a member of The Authority).
380* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: A few characters have them. They are used in short order. I mean, things can't get any worse, right?
381* DependingOnTheWriter: Some returning characters are played by different players who handle them differently than they were in their previous games.
382* TheDogWasTheMastermind: We learn that the Cullens attacking countless worlds was all orchestrated by one being creating them for the purpose of seeking power and destabilizing the universe. We learn it was all a huge gambit to tear apart reality at it's fundamental point and watch all creation, all possible worlds burn around it. We learn of a [[HumanoidAbomination Eldritch Abomination]] specifically birthed to bring this about, and arranged to be in the position where it can end all reality. And the man behind it all? Charlie Swann, a man of many handles, partner, who prefers to be called [[LouisCypher Randall Flagg]]. Yeah, MindScrew.
383%% * DwindlingParty
384* TheEndOrIsIt: Odin and Darkseid are Dead, but in the God business it's not the death that matters, but the opportunity for resurrection, and Wednesday [[ThanatosGambit orchestrated his own to unite with the rest of himself]] and become [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor Odin Skyfather]] again, which seems to have succeeded. And in the last post, Randall Flagg wakes up in a random beach in a random world, and gets back to work.
385* EnfantTerrible: Mary Jane and Peter Parker have their daughter after all. It's the reborn [[PhysicalGod God Emperor]][[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}} of Mankind]]. No wonder Mephisto was scared.
386* FateWorseThanDeath:
387** [[TheNothingAfterDeath Nicodemus is left at the end of time, alone in the void with no company and no way of creating anything]]. He can't even kill himself. All the more horrible as it is arguably an IronicHell.
388** Even Dream can't quite compete with God, but he curses ComicBook/ScottPilgrim to never sleep again after being questioned.
389* FictionalHoliday: "Doomsday is the main holiday in Latveria. It is celebrated whenever Doom feels like celebrating."
390* GambitRoulette:
391** Flagg's plan. Though it wasn't a plan, so much as going with the flow.
392** Odin knew everything. Your scheme? He was on to it from the start. Your accomplices? He was the one who let your letters get to them. That time you stubbed your toe? He was watching!
393** Though what he actually pulled off was a ThanatosGambit, letting the [[TheChosenMany Green Lanterns]] kill him the propper way so as to reform as he who he was. Still well played, however.
394* GodzillaThreshold: Pretty much the point of the game. Things are so bad, anything is a viable strategy. Some of the things that are come up with in response to this...
395** [[Literature/DresdenFiles Harry Dresden]] [[MythologyGag becoming Winter Knight]], taking up Lacsiel's coin for real this time and animating the corpse of [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Evangelion Unit-02]] as a zombie.
396** ComicBook/{{Morbius}} reanimated the the formerly zombied Unit-02 as a Frankstein monster powered by ComicBook/{{Hellboy}}'s stone fist and Excalibur to fight Cthulu and Godzilla.
397*** And win. Turns out the King of Monsters was the least of their problems.
398*** In fact, Darkseid getting the Anti-Life Equation was a subplot. A minor subplot.
399** Almost everything the [[Manga/GetterRobo Getter Empire]] and [[{{Literature/Nightside}} John Taylor's team]] do.
400** Apointing Alexander Anderson from ''{{Manga/Hellsing}}'', ComicBook/TheSpectre and Rorschach from ComicBook/{{Watchmen}}and The Doctor from ''ComicBook/TheAuthority''.
401** Giving [[Franchise/{{Saw}} Jigsaw]] the [[Anime/YuGiOh Millenium Ring]] and later [[Franchise/KingdomHearts King Mickey Mouse's keyblade]].
402** [[ComicBook/TheSandman The Endless]] summoning the [[ComicBook/{{Preacher}} Saint of Killers]] to take care of the Crimson King and giving [[Literature/DresdenFiles Michael Carpender]] another magical weapon to take care of the Saint.
403* HeroicSacrifice: Ash takes a bullet for Michael that allows him to finally kill The Saint. Deadboy takes one for Taylor, and Roland shoots out the Saint's eye that messes up his perception and allows both these gambits to work. And Dante cutting out his own Heart to stop the Judge living again.
404* HeroKiller: [[ComicBook/{{Preacher}} Saint of Killers]] mows people down like it's the easiest thing in the world. Nicodemus is a close second, because he has to work harder.
405* HumongousMecha: [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Eva-02]], [[Manga/GetterRobo Black Getter]], [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Gurren]] and [[WesternAnimation/MegasXLR Megas]] and they end up ''[[CombiningMecha combining together]]'', with ''[[Franchise/StarWars Yoda]]'' as an additional pilot. Said combination can also transform into "[[{{Anime/Mazinkaiser}} Mazingetter]]" for some reason.
406** "CHANGE GETTER EMPEROR!"
407-->'''[[Manga/GetterRobo Ryoma]]:''' "Hey [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Simon]]. Want to see what happens when you combine a Spiral machine with a Getter?"
408%% * KudzuPlot
409* LetsFightLikeGentlemen: Played bizarrely straight with Elric, who gets furious at people for interrupting his fair and honorable duels. Then proceeds to beat Nicodemus in that manner.
410* MakeMyMonsterGrow: Parodied. [[Franchise/PowerRangers Lord Zedd]] attempts to turn [[WesternAnimation/InvaderZim Zim]] into a giant to fight Franchise/{{Godzilla}}, but due to BizarreAlienBiology he only grows by about a foot. This is still sufficient to make Zim king of all Irkens.
411* MoreThanMindControl: Nicodemus doesn't need such imprecise things to control Molly.
412* NinjaPirateRobotZombie: Some of the combinations that arise defy belief.
413* NoodleIncident: Ryoma mentions a night he went out drinking with an incarnation of [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Gendo Ikari]] whose wife never died. He doesn't say exactly what happened, but it apparently resulted in [[PersonaNonGrata a UN sanction making it illegal for them to be within a certain distance of each other]].
414* TheOlderImmortal: The Kurgan to Nicodemus. Played with, as Nicodemus is a man of wealth and taste, the Kurgan is a primitive brute.
415* OmniscientMoralityLicence: Many characters seem to believe they have one.
416** Death and Thanos decide to destroy [[ComicBook/FiftyTwo Earth in every possible universe]] by [[EarthShatteringKaboom supernova]] to keep the entire multiverse from being destroyed. She's talked out of it.
417** Hayato threatens to destroy the universe to stop the Equation from spreading. He meant it to.'
418** The Stig nuked Chicago.
419* OnlyAFleshWound: Nicodemus gets back up from having [[InfinityPlusOneSword Mournblade]] driven through both his lungs, and eat his soul.
420* PersonOfMassDestruction: Most of the characters are arguably doing as much damage as the Cullens.
421* PowerCreepPowerSeep: Akuma immediately has his "true power" unlocked, allowing him to "stand up to ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' characters".
422* ThePowerOfRock: Ironheade use Apokolips, Megas and Getter Rays as a giant amplifier to make everyone in the universe [[Anime/{{Macross}} "listen to their song"]] and counter the effects of the [[Franchise/DCUniverse Anti-Life Equation]]. In response, [[RockMeAsmodeus Darkseid and his minions start performing a heavy metal version of the equation]], leading to a rock battle for the fate of the universe.
423* PreMortemOneLiner: [[Franchise/TheDarkTower 'You Have Forgotten The Face Of Your Father.']]
424%% * ProtagonistCenteredMorality
425* RetGone:
426** The Crimson King uses this power a few times. It rarely sticks.
427** The opposite is also true. Magog appeared out of nowhere and was considered part of the Authority, despite there being no mention of him before.
428* ShoutOut: Many to previous games.
429** [[Franchise/FinalFantasy Gilgamesh]] pulls out the [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Rekka Daizantou]] at one point.
430** The weapon of [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight a different Gilgamesh]] also shows up.
431* ShroudedInMyth: John Taylor attempts to weaponize this, and Stephanie Meyer has no idea what to make of him, so she tries to do everything.
432* StoryBreakerTeamup:
433** Not quite "teamup", but the Literature/{{Animorphs}} end up in proximity to Franchise/{{Godzilla}}...
434** Many other teamups are actually Storybreaking.
435* SurroundedByIdiots: Lord Zedd. His senior tecnician is Jar Jar Binks. His infiltrator is [[PsychopathicManchild Invader Zim]]. And his main general? [[WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged Nappa]]. Most of his other servants are not much better, or more effective. The very fact he mannages to be a threat at all says something about his power.
436* TakeThat: ''ComicBook/OneMoreDay'' was less then well received. It was retconned into Mephisto being afraid of their child (which was destined to kill him), and so arranging things so it was never born.
437* {{Terraform}}: [[Manga/GetterRobo Getter Emperor]] transforms Apokolips into a lush paradise in a matter of minutes. ''[[Franchise/DCUniverse Apokolips]]''. Darkseid was not pleased.
438* ThisIsMyBoomstick: Subverted when [[Franchise/EvilDead Ash]] attempts this on [[Literature/FateZero Berserker]]. Who grabs the boomstick and shoots him with it.
439* WhatTheHellHero
440** Dream provides many such moments. Of course, it's [[JerkassGods only to be expected with him.]]
441** As does the Stig, who blows up Chicago to make sure TheHost doesn't spread, even though most of the people within aren't possessed yet.
442** Thanos of all people calls out [[Manga/GetterRobo Hayato]], saying that the Getter Force is as big an abomination as anything it fights, it doesn't give a damn about anything but it's own self interest and egoism, he and his entire groups are all total hypocrite and that at least he doesn't go around telling people being made part of death is for their own good. He still ends up helping them, but it was nice to see.
443* TheWorfEffect:
444** Thanos went down very easily, the first time at least. When he comes back he manages to recover.
445** [[WolverinePublicity Wolverine]] later shows up for no reason but to show everyone how it's done.
446** Elric. Oh Gods Elric. Nicodemus beat him in the climactic duel, despite the fact that he doesn't even qualify as a speedbump given the sort of things the White Wolf routinely kills.
447* WorldOfBadass: Thanks to all the settings involved, this is unavoidable.

507
508The White Council fell during the Tower War, and in it's stead Molly Carpender took up the Blackstaff and rose to power. Uniting the Knights of the Cross, the remnants of the White Council and conquering most of the world she brought forth a new age of magic and science. The Age of the Britannian Empire. Of course her reign is tainted by the emerging superpowers of other magical nations and the increase in technology elevating the common man to the same level as the average wizard. What could she be planning with that little burnt book with a picture of pale hands clasping an apple and what will the world do to stop her?

540
541* AnarchyIsChaos: Averted most completely, then ends up getting played straight regardless due to circumstances raising the stakes.
542* AuthorFilibuster : Comes up a few times. Horribly subverted in one case. Horribly.
543* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Doctor Doom, [[Webcomic/GirlGenius Baron Klaus Wulfen Bach]], [[Anime/CodeGeass Empress]] [[Literature/DresdenFiles Blackstaff]], [[VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos MICHAEL WILSON THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!]], [[Literature/DresdenFiles Red King Arianna]] and [[Anime/CodeGeass Prime Minister Lelouch Vi Blackstaff]] disagree on many things, this is not one of them.
544%% * BadFuture: The Entire point.
545* BombThrowingAnarchists: He even threatens to blow himself up a couple of times, and steals a plane.
546* CompositeCharacter: As usual many examples.
547** The White Council was destroyed at the end of ''Franchise/TheDarkTower'', leading [[Literature/DresdenFiles Molly Carpender]] after Harry Dresden and Ebenezer [=McCoy=]'s death takes up the Blackstaff, Winter Mantle and Lasciel's Denarian. With this power she reunites the remnants of the White Council as the [[Anime/CodeGeass Holy Britannian Empire]]. From there she took the other Denarian Coins and used them with tech from the ruins of [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers Angel Grove]] to created the demonic {{Sentai}} team the Fallen Rangers as elite guard.
548** [[Anime/CodeGeass C.C.]] was [[ComicBook/{{Transmetropolitan}} Spider Jerusalam's]] first wife as well as the [[Literature/DresdenFiles Summer Lady]] as Geass is now a minor form of Sidhe Knighthood.
549** [[VideoGame/MetalWolfChaos Metal Wolf]] was made by [[Webcomic/GirlGenius Sparks under the supervision of Wulfenbach]].
550* CrapsackWorld: In order to justify the psychosis of several characters, the problems with the world are highly made plain. Everyone is ruled by Toltalitarian states who only mannage to survive thanks to mutually assured destruction, and we're using resources at such a rate that in three generations there will be nothing left.
551* CrazyPrepared: Spider Jeruselum carries around enough useless stuff to drive of real profesionals or survive anything (all the poor devils had was real guns and bullets).
552%% * CyberPunk: More of the point.
553%% * DissonantSerenity: Averted by the Sparks.
554* DoomedMoralVictor: Klaus Von Wulfenbach and Richard Seaton, surprisingly. Averted by V, who says ThisIsJustTheBegining and decides to apply it on a multiversal level now, and Lelouch, who vanishes into Nightside with Shirley and swears to kill his father.
555* ElaborateUndergroundBase: V has at least two, Molly has one, and Seaton has one.
556* ForWantOfANail: The versions of Literature/DresdenFiles and Anime/CodeGeass canon employed for this game are basically "What If Thomas was the chosen sacrfice for the Bloodline cure in ''Changes''?" and "What if Lelouch joked about telling Euphimia to [[GirlOnGirlIsHot make out with]] [[BrotherSisterIncest Cornelia]] instead of killing Japanese?" respectively.
557* AGodAmI: Blink and you'll miss it, but V starts quoting [[JesusWasWayCool Jesus Christ]] and [[Literature/TheManWhoWasThursday Sunday]] rather then philosophers, authors, statesmen, Winston Churchill and everyone else imaginable.
558%% * HappinessInSlavery: V feels that the human race is this because
559* LockingMacGyverInTheStoreCupboard: Molly did this to V. Which is what he wanted, as he didn't have a way of getting to those things on his own.
560%% * {{Magitek}}: The rest of the point.
561%% * NoEndorHolocaust: Very averted. Almost painfully.
562* OddlySmallOrganization: V's group of terrorists who are holding every government in the world at gunpoint consists of Spider Jeruselum (whom is more of an independent contractor) and three women, which only two of have any affect whatsoever.
563* OneManArmy: V is an inversion of this, in that he could be, but never does, prefering to work from the shadows. However, he can kill men by the dozen without effort when called apon to do so.
564* OrderVersusChaos: Becomes a major theme, with every character forced against their will to one extreme or the other.
565%% * SchizoTech: Most of the stuff the Sparks come up with.
566%% * ShownTheirWork: V's quotes. And there are many.
567* StableTimeLoop: Several characters are sent back in time to star in earlier games.
568* TwistEnding: Something of a subversion of the expected conclusion, to say the least.
569* TheUnfettered: V. He'll sell his soul, torture his son, manipulate the woman he proports to love, and do whatever it takes to reach his objective, even when the entire point of reaching said objective no longer has any meaning, he won't even slow down.

573!! Twilight IX: Of Wolf and Man
574
575By far the strangest game in the Lynching-verse. This game took three [=DMs=] with three very different visions and levels of knowledge of the various source material to come together into one outstanding train wreck of a game. With the rotating themes of BadassNormal folks caught in a conspiracy, [[{{Sequelitis}}Bad Sequels]] and [[ThrowItIn I dunno whatever the Hell you want, let's end this game and move on already]] this game was surely a sight to be seen but will never be mentioned again.
