It's divided into three parts and officially finished.



* BadassCrew: the crew of the Dionysian each has their own specialty and each member can kick ass in their own right. They're all loyal to each other and act more as a family than a pirate crew.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Before leaving his home planet on the Dionysian, Fiearius Soliveré [[spoiler: worked as an assassin for the dubious government organization the Society, potentially murdering many innocents. This culminated in an event that caused both his wife and four year old son to be killed]]
* DefrostingIceQueen: Leta Adler is depicted as cold, stern and unflinching particularly towards Fiearius, but in time she warms up to him [[spoiler: and even comes to love him.]]
* FishOutOfWater: When Leta initially boards the Dionysian, having been raised in wealth and luxury on her home planet, she does not fit in with the criminal crew nor understand their activities and methods.

* {{Determinator}}: In Part 1, Leta wants [[TheLostLenore Ren]] back. At any cost.
* TheEmpire: The Society is so evil it's hard to wrap one's head around ''why'' any planet would want to join it, instead of nuking their diplomatic ships on orbit.
* FishOutOfWater: When Leta initially boards the Dionysian, having been raised in wealth and luxury on her home planet, she does not fit in with the criminal crew nor understand their activities and methods. But she takes to it LikeADuckTakesToWater.



* HangoverSensitivity: Averted. Nobody seems to get properly hung over, even in the WhatDidIDoLastNight scenes. And they [[DrowningOurRomanticSorrows drink]] [[HardDrinkingPartyGirl a freakin']] [[INeedAFreakingDrink lot]].

* WorstAid:
** SoapOperaDisease: Both Fiearius and [[spoiler: Leta, who's supposedly a doctor!]] [[DefinitelyJustACold work through their]] illness as if there were no tomorrow. He runs around delirious for weeks in Part 1.
** FantasticDrug: Flush is amphetamine UpToEleven. ARC treatments involve something pharmaceutical for BedtimeBrainwashing and FakeMemories planting.
** MagicalAntibiotics: With a flip-flop as to whether they're easy to get or only available in Society hospitals.
** MagicAntidote: When Cyrus gets [[TamperingWithFoodAndDrink poisoned]] in a bar, all Leta has to do is induce vomiting and there's nothing wrong with him afterwards.
** WeHaveToGetTheBulletOut is never questioned, not even by Leta, the prodigy ''trauma surgeon''.
