!!Wandering Moon contains examples of:

* AlwaysChaoticEvil: Raiders and Super Mutants like in the game retain their roles as pure evil antagonists.
* BerserkButton:
** Luna does ''not'' like Necromancy. She usually executes anyone or anything related to it. This includes ghouls who greatly resemble zombies. Fortunately, Sarah manages to talk her out of killing any non-feral ones.
** She's also not a horse. She's an ''[[InsistentTerminology alicorn]].''
* BattleCouple: Sarah and Luna, eventually.
* {{BFS}}: Both Luna and Celestia have them, though Luna's silver broadsword Daybreaker is much more prominent.
* BestialityIsDepraved: Wadsworth (Sarah's robotic butler) is horrified by the idea of his master sleeping with what equates to a horse even before Sarah and Luna hook up.
** Even so, those two have caught surprisingly little flak for their relationship, despite being quite open about it. [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight James barely even raises an eyebrow]].
** Played straighter later on, when Sarah and Luna meet two raiders who apparently had certain interactions with a Brahmin. They are suitably disgusted.
* BigDamnHeroes: Said verbatim by Nim when they're planning on saving Reily's Rangers.
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Sure, Sarah gets out alive and Luna gets to go home to an Equestria that loves her, but on the other hand... the two are separated seemingly forever]]
* BodyguardCrush: Seems to be the default romance for the Princesses of Equestria with both Celestia and Cadence finding their loves from the Guard. An even straighter example is Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle with Rainbow acting as her bodyguard with a 'secret' crush.
* CurbstompBattle: Celestia versus [[spoiler: Xanthos's army.]] She takes it on virtually alone and comes out of it without so much as a scratch on her armour.
** Another can be found when Clover and her daughter raid a warehouse where [[spoiler: Xanthos is attempting to summon an Ursa Major]] and they wipe the floor with everyone inside.
** [[PapaWolf James']] epic take down of a Talon Company mercenary in a hand-to-hand fight outside Vault 112.
* DeadpanSnarker: Everyone gets their moments, but especially Nim.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Happens to Nim with time.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Happens to Luna on occasion when first dealing with her feelings for Sarah
* DyingMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler: As mentioned elsewhere, Clover gets a great one. She singlehoofedly goes up against an Ursa Major and not only beats it soundly, but does so in her late 80s before finally dying of magical exhaustion.]]
* {{Expy}}: A godlike character who some consider to be a big good, but with a surprising dark side, who wields a sword called 'Dawnbreaker', and absolutely loathes necromancy. Wait, are we talking about Luna or [[Franchise/TheElderScrolls Meridia?]]
* FantasticRacism: Luna has to put up with some of course, what with being a talking horse (er, [[WingedUnicorn alicorn]]).
** Luna herself has this towards zombies. And zombie-like creatures.
** FrazettaMan: Why Luna has this towards ''horses''. Apparently while ponies had enough technology for things like metalworking and printing, horses were barely able to handle ''fire''.
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Remember how fast travel went? Ever wish it was really riding on the back of a winged unicorn?
* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Luna tries to get Sarah to focus after the first encounter with Talon Company. Sarah is...worried.
** Sarah has to return the favor later on, when Luna gets into an argument with Nim in the middle of a fight with some raiders.
* AGodAmI: As to be expected, Braun once more proves to be a completely irredeemable control freak with delusions of grandeur brought on by his control of Tranquility Lane.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Celestia and Luna are perfectly nice mares who will go out of their way to help those in need. On the other hand, they're also incredibly powerful and more than willing to kill any and all who threaten those that they love or protect. The same can be said for Sarah as well.
* HopeSpot: Done by the Author to the Audience when James is [[spoiler: teleported to safety by Luna only to die a day later thanks to internal injuries]].
* InterspeciesAdoption: Celestia and Luna were adopted by a dragon after living alone for several years.
%%* InterspeciesRomance: Sarah and Luna, eventually.
* KillItWithFire: Celestia, naturally. She ''is'' the Goddess of the Sun.
* LadyOfWar: Queen Celestia is calm, beautiful, deadly, and [[PhysicalGod incredibly powerful]] when she enters the battlefield.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: Celestia has had hundreds of these throughout her exceptionally long life, enough to commemorate an entire hall to their memory. Luna is currently in her first with Sarah.
* MadeOfIron: Sarah, after she gets a suit of power armor from the Brotherhood of Steel.
* NarniaTime: A serious one between Wasteland time and Equestrian time. Sometimes a few days in the Wasteland equals a week or a year in Equestria or in more extreme cases, a single day in the Wastes can be equal to several hundred years of Equestrian time. It really just moves at the speed of plot.
* {{Necromancy}}: Luna has a particularly strong hatred towards this type of magic. Her reaction to Underworld is ... enthusiastic.
* NeverMessWithGranny: Clover the Clever when she gets old. Despite the fact that she was in her 80s the old mare managed to beat back a warehouse full of goons [[spoiler: along with an Ursa Major before finally dying after sending the Major running home with its tail between its legs, then told death to hold on second so she could get the last word.]]
* NoodleIncident: Apparently, Twilight Sparkle once managed to sneak cookies out of the kitchen at Canterlot Castle by harnessing the powers of polka.
** For Nim and Sarah, the events of Mothership Zeta are one.
* OneManArmy: '''Celestia.''' She literally takes on an entire army by herself, and ''wins''.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. Sarah Summers eventually meets Sarah Lyons, of the Brotherhood.
* PapaWolf: James definitely qualifies, as shown during his epic takedown of a Talon Company Mercenary that was intending to kill Sarah.
** Jonathan decides he'd rather not watch two foals be murdered outside his cave. He reacts about how you'd expect a large dragon to.
* PhysicalGod: Celestia, more or less. Luna as well, although to a lesser extent (especially on Earth).
* ShoutOut:
** ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'''s 'why are we here' is discussed by a pair of super mutants moments before they're killed.
** A man who resembles [[Series/DoctorWho the Doctor]] shows up to offer Sarah aid at one point, though he appears to only resemble him in appearance.
** In chapter 36, Luna takes several grazing hits from a submachine gun. She says that [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail "Tis but a series of flesh wounds."]]
* {{Squee}}:
** Moira has this reaction when she sees Luna for the first time. This involved breaking into Sarah's house and waking them up one morning. They were not amused.
** Nightmare Moon also has one when she hears Liberty Prime.
* TranquilFury: Celestia is a master of this, as proven when she took on [[spoiler:Xanthos's]] army. Especially when she tells him what he's up against.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: We never do find out what happened to Colonel Autumn.
* WeakButSkilled: [[WordOfGod According to the author]], Celestia is more powerful than Luna, but Luna is a better tactician. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And better at math]]. Of course, they're both leagues above everyone else.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Most people don't have much of a reaction to Sarah and Luna's relationship. They're also usually quick to get used to the sight of a talking winged unicorn.
* WingedUnicorn: Luna, of course. Naturally, many Wastelanders call her a horse. And are surprised to hear her opinion on it.
