* ActingForTwo:
** Anyone who has a second avatar, excluding Omega Zell's attempt at CrossPlaying and Saphir's Gaea look-alike avatar (don't ask), which is more of case of acting for three for the actress playing Gaea.
** As of ''Film/NoobLeConseilDesTroisFactions'' some of the actors have a NonPlayerCharacter role as well.
* ActorSharedBackground: All the cast had to spend at least some time in the south of France (where all Noob guild players live) to know the series creator in the first place and quite a few of them are actual gamers.
* CastAsAMask: An inversion of the trope can occur when watching ''Lost Levels'' after watching ''Noob''. Heimdäl's mask is an allusion to a character his actor was playing in that series, and that character was actually wearing a mask in-game to conceal his identity as someone already seen in real-life parts of the story. If you recognize the actor or even his name in the credits the first time he appears, the identity of the masked man that appears later is obvious.
* CreatorCouple:
** Anne-Laure Jarnet, Fabien Fournier's wife as of July 2013 and Gaea's actress, is credited as co-writer.
** Philippe Cardona and Florence Torta, the comic's illustrator and colorist, work and live together.
* HideYourPregnancy:
** Golgotha's so far webseries-only mage reroll was mostly an excuse to put her actress in a baggier outfit.
** Saphir got a mild case before Rubis got introduced. The episode that had her use a Gaea look-alike avatar in-game had a few shots of Elena behind the computer, but only her face was shown.
* EnforcedMethodActing:
** The actor playing Sparadrap is one of the non-gamers of the cast, making him genuinely ignorant of the subject.
** Meuhmeuh is an accidental case. The actor has trouble keeping balance in the shoes he wears for the costume, but the character is somewhat of a {{Keet}}. The result is that only about half of the onscreen clumsiness is faked.
* ThePeteBest: In Season 2's two last episodes, team Amaras' female nuker had a different style, was played by another actor, and was never named. The Roxana described in the character sheet was only set in stone in the second novel, which takes place between Seasons 2 and 3.
* RealLifeRelative: In general, the cast is a group of Fabien Fournier's friends who brought in their own acquaintances, who themselves knew other people. When cut down to couples and siblings, you still have:
** Johanna Fournier (Ivy) and "Gabrielle Jolivet"/Anne-Laure Jarnet (Gaea) are respectively Fabien Fournier's (Fantöm) sister and wife (as of July 2013). Matthieu Zecchini (Ystos) and Pierre Zecchini are Fabien Fournier's brothers also.
** Lionel Tagliavini (Master Zen) is Amandine Tagliavini's (Golgotha) brother and Frédéric Zolfanelli (Sparadrap) is her husband. Golgotha's mage actually existed because of Amandine Tagliavini's pregnancy, so she would have a more adapted costume.
** Julien Guellerin (Omega Zell) and Amandine Train (Saphir) are married and seem to have at least two children.
** "Gabrielle Jolivet"'s grandfather played OneSceneWonder "Papy PK" (Grandpa PK).
** Serwan Melk (Meuhmeuh) and Carmen N'Guyen (Pironess) are a couple as well.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Some events influenced the writing of the webseries and affected the two other media, some with incredibly good timing:
** Amandine Tagliavini (Golgotha) was pregnant for most of Season 3, which saw the Noob guild go through a couple of temporary seventh members.
** Jonathan Fourcade (Arthéon) had to reduce his appearances for Season 3, so the story had him sent off to BoardingSchool. That gave a head start on the Season 4 storyline that involved him starting to neglect the guild. He also lost lots of weight between Seasons 4 and 5, right around the time a radical appearance change would be appropriate for his storyline.
** Between Season 3 and 4, Frédéric Zolfanelli (Sparadrap) started losing his hair and one of the solutions to that was to cut it shorter. Sparadrap got a BreakTheCutie moment in Season 3 finale and spent time in charge of the guild in Season 4 [[spoiler:before becoming its official Guild master in the fourth novel and Season 5]].
** Season 4 had Rodolphe Toucas (Dark Avenger) [[spoiler:move to China and hence need his character to be Put On a Bus]] right around the time the series was taking a step further in CerebusSyndrome.
* SeparatedAtBirthCasting: A couple of actor pairs playing family members look like each other enough to get mixed up by some people when they are not in costume: Sparadrap/Abraham (son and father) and Saphir/Rubis (sisters).
* ShootTheMoney: The movies were financed by crowdfunding, so they made the most of what the money enabled them to afford. It gets noticeable when a place where only about thirty seconds of dialogue happens gets an overview and characters that got new outfits show them off.
* SimilarlyNamedWorks:
** ''Webcomic/TheNoob'', a MMORPG-centered webcomic.
** Not exactly the trope, but there is a light novel adapted into an anime in October 2013 that is named ''Literature/LogHorizon''.
* StageName: The "Gabrielle Jolivet" seen in Season 3 credits is actually Anne-Laure Jarnet. The name Gabrielle Jolivet was also used for the actress's Facebook page for a time.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** The BroadStrokes relationship between the media usually takes care of this trope, but Heimdäl and Arthéon's intended past as best friends escaped that safety net. The two have only interacted twice so far in all three media taken together, and always in circumstances where any random player who did the same thing as Arthéon would have gotten a similar response/support from Heimdäl. The only remnants are Arthéon's mentioned past as a Justice guild strategist and their shared practice of roleplay that is blurred out by the fact that the whole Justice guild main roster is made of roleplaying fans.
** According to the Season 5 making-of, the hidden father-son connection between two particular characters was a husband-wife relationship in the early drafts of the story.
* YouLookFamiliar: Both played straight because of the limited pool of actors and averted by the fact that some of the extra roles involve a costume hiding their face.
** The YetAnotherChristmasCarol episode in Season 1 takes the cake: the three ghosts are the first appearances of the actors playing Pironess (past), Golgotha (present) and Decklan (future). The vision given by the ghost of Christmas past shows Ash chatting with another Coalition player named Tenshirock [[spoiler:(likely foreshadowing in retrospect)]] and an Empire player named Battos, both played by the same actor as the character with the same name who would become recurring.
** The actor playing Spectre was a regular extra before taking on his current role.
