1	''[[http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Twisted_Mirrors/ Twisted Mirrors]]'' is a fantasy [[{{Webcomics}} webcomic]], created by dragonsong12. Set in a fantasy world where humans hold another species - the boetheri - as slaves, the series focuses on Nareth, a young nobleman who finds himself transferred into the body of a boetheri, Tren-an. Nareth must not only deal with his new life as a slave (supported by his boetheri servants Tai-ra and Jaith, who are unaware of the change in their master), but he must also try to thwart the plans Tren-an has in his original body.

4	!!This webcomic provides examples of:
5
6	* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:Ralla, Nareth's love interest as a human, seems nice... until she tortures Nareth-as-boetheri on their first meeting simply as a lesson in obedience.]]
7	* {{Blackmail}}: Tren-an threatens Nareth [[spoiler:and, later, Bradley]] into keeping the switch hidden.
8	* DemBones: Animated skeletons serve as guardians in the abandoned elven city. Notably, they are fragile and easily dispatched.
9	* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: Nareth showed signs of this after successfully frightening [[spoiler:Tren-an.]]
10	* EvilSorcerer: Tren-an.
11	* EyepatchOfPower: Subverted with [[spoiler:Jaith]], as he does not become noticeably more badass.
12	* FantasticRacism: Towards the boetheri.
13	* FirstNameBasis: Jaith calls Nareth-as-boetheri "Tren" (rather than the full name "Tren-an") early on. [[http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Twisted_Mirrors/index.php?p=240294 These]] [[http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Twisted_Mirrors/index.php?p=244591 three]] [[http://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Twisted_Mirrors/index.php?p=246835 pages]] explain that this is quite significant.
14	* GrandTheftMe: Tren-an's switch with Nareth begins the plot.
15	* HappinessInSlavery: Tai-Ra and Jaith; Nareth was an exceptionally considerate master, although Tren-An, after taking over his body, is not. In the BackStory, the original masters of the boetheri - the elves - treated all boetheri well.
16	* HereThereWereDragons: In the BackStory, much of the world's magic was deliberately sealed away by humans, allowing them to triumph in their war with the elves. Magic still exists, but only in a minor form (thus far).
17	* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:Tai-ra suffers this, after Tren-an requests her company for the evening, and Nareth confronts him, preventing her from fulfilling said order.]]
18	* HumansAreBastards: Towards the boetheri, anyway; technically, one of the elves started the war.
19	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Nareth, after becoming a boetheri, discovers his friend Bradley is this.
20	* MadeASlave: Nareth.
21	* ManipulativeBastard: Tren-an.
22	* PowersViaPossession: A variation: Nareth is unable to use magic in his original body, but Tren-an is quite capable of doing so after he takes it over.
23	* TheRant
24	* SlaveRace: The boetheri.
25	* TheStoic: Ser-den, Ralla's chief servant.
26	* TongueTied: [[spoiler:Tren-an does this to Nareth's friend Bradley after he figures out the switch.]]
