5	It begins with a [[BadassNormal kobold named Mudy]] awakening within a small box. He is teleported to a world of fantasy, and promptly sets out to claim a kingdom as his own. [[GrowingTheBeard It only gets better from there.]]

9	----
10	!This game provides examples of:
11	* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Ivar and Rune, a pair of paladins who were forced into servitude under Calavera upon losing a battle of wits.
12	%%* AnyoneCanDie: Sometimes, averted. Other times, not so much.
13	* [[ArtifactOfDoom Artifact of Doom]]: [[spoiler:Darkbeing, the Sword of Betrayal. A hero commissioned a demonic sword from one demon to kill another, but that let his target curse the sword with their dying breath to turn him and all future wielders into AxCrazy psychos. Axebeard goes nuts just by holding it, then Raital gets her hands on it and purges some of the Skullking's forces. Eventually, Raital's willpower (and love) overwhelms the sword, destroying its power source.]]
14	* ArtEvolution: [[https://questden.org/kusaba/questarch/src/124640647774.png And]] [[https://questden.org/kusaba/questarch/src/124760850352.png HOW!]]
15	* AuthorAppeal: Given this and his other quests, it's pretty clear Reaver has some sort of...''interest'' in [[spoiler:incest]]. So if you're expecting a [[spoiler:Mudy isn't Latral]] plot twist, you're going to be disappointed.
16	* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler: Calavera, but then again, he is a Lich, and it wasn't even certain that Swordplague cut the soul up properly.]]
17	* {{BFS}}: [[spoiler: Mudy carries one that's bigger than himself, ''inside his own body''.]]
18	* BigScrewedUpFamily and RoyallyScrewedUp: The Blutjaegers spent all their childhoods in an ancient abandoned citadel, training to become powerful warriors and destroyers, with a loveless hellspawn as a mother and no father of any kind. Even those of them that did not grow up to become depraved and psychotic monsters share some rather odd personality quirks.
19	* BrotherSisterIncest: [[spoiler:Mudy and Raital? Siblings. When do we find out? The very night Mudy "becomes a man".]]
20	* CallingTheOldManOut: [[spoiler:"I am not you. And for that I am forever thankful. I would rather be weak than exist in a world where your corruption rules."]]
21	* CutenessProximity: [[spoiler:Mudy, once he witnesses the transformation of his big sister Kuhral. Complete with a ShoutOut to Webcomic/{{xkcd}}.]]
22	* DevelopmentHell
23	* EmpoweredBadassNormal: Mudy has hidden powers but he can't control any of them, [[spoiler:such as the ability to turn most of his blood into a giant's sword - which makes him completely powerless because he's anemic when said blood is in his sword]], so he relies on his own bardic charisma and his allies (who ''can'' use some of these powers through Mudy) to forge through problems.
24	* {{Fanservice}}: Ample amounts, particularly regarding Darkmoon Dagger.
25	* FanDisservice: Cheryl the sandworm and Axebeard during the [[HotSpringsEpisode hot springs episode]] deserve special mention.
26	%% * Getting Crap Past The Radar: Due to overwhelming and persistent misuse, GCPTR is on-page examples only until 01 June 2021. If you are reading this in the future, please check the trope page to make sure your example fits the current definition.
27	* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler: "Mudy has succumbed to illnes[sic]: LOVE. LOVE has escalated into DESPAIR."]]
28	* LongLostRelative: [[spoiler:"I am Latral."]]
29	* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Mudy thought [[spoiler:Hans and Gunter]] would be loyal minions despite previously working for an overlord, never making any attempts to be friends, and generally acting weird. They bide their time and then attempt a mass assassination when Mudy brings them as ambassadors into their enemy's capital.
30	* HotSpringsEpisode: Also contains a minor ShoutOut to ''Webcomic/RubyQuest''. [[spoiler:And sibling sex.]]
31	%%* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: Lucinus the Serpent King
32	* KavorkaMan: Mudy has a way of inadvertently seducing/arousing almost all of the females he encounters, often accidentally.
33	* KingmakerScenario: Mudy gets appointed by Darkmoon's queendom to decide which of the five 'princesses' should inherit the throne. [[spoiler:Helping matters is that he's a prince of the kingdom that is currently annexing her queendom, while also being rebellious enough to make an informed decision that goes ''against'' his kingdom's interests. After realizing that every princess is flawed but easily balances the others, he ends up ''breaking the crown'' and it turns into five circlets, creating a royal council.]]
34	* KissingUnderTheInfluence: A mind-controlling slave collar made forced Mudy to kiss a Blutjaeger.
35	* MayflyDecemberRomance: Darkmoon? 922 years old. Totenkopf? ''Eleven.''
36	* MergedReality: At one point just as things seem truly fucked, [[spoiler:a fey sends Mudy into the past to foil the assassination that set the series of perilous events in motion.]] It works.
37	* MomentKiller: Hans and Gunther, several times. Their physical appearance does not help.
38	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: "Blutjaeger" translates to "Bloodhunter".
39	* NoPeriodsPeriod: Averted with Darkmoon, for comic relief.
40	%%* NoseBleed: All of the Blutjaegers, to the point of a running gag. [[spoiler:And a ''plot device''. Not Taikah yet, though.]]
41	%%* OnlySaneMan: Bladetree.
42	* OneManArmy: Stormplague the bounty hunter. Several Blutjaegers would seem to count as well.
43	%%* QuirkyMinibossSquad: The Blutjaegers.
44	%%* RebelliousPrincess: Raital.
45	* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: The Blutjaegers, princes and princesses all, are quite active.
46	* RunningGag: [[spoiler: "He also feels a hand going up his leg."]]
47	* ShoutOut: The ''Webcomic/RubyQuest'' one in the HotSpringsEpisode. There's also a character that bears a suspicious resemblance to the lead of Weaver's ''Webcomic/DiveQuest''.
48	%%* SpeakNowOrForeverHoldYourPeace
49	* SuccessThroughInsanity: Rudy typically performs 'sneak attacks' by doing something so spontaneous and nonsensical that his enemies are stunned speechless - and then he attacks. [[spoiler:He managed to stun his brother long enough to stab him by ''inventing'' wrestling commentary. In a fantasy world. ''In mid-air freefall''.]]
50	%%* {{Tsundere}}: Raital.
51	%%* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Muschio Malto gave a dying kobold girl some experimental medicine to try and save her. [[spoiler:It ended up turning her into the Skull King instead.]][[note]]Is this still canon?[[/note]]
52	%%* WholesomeCrossdresser: Mudy, after his makeover in Firewater. Not to mention that he's wearing panties for the majority of the quest.
53	%%** [[spoiler:Prince Silvermoone as well.]]
54	%%* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler: Also Raital.]]
