• Alternate Character Interpretation — Flat-out encouraged by the writers. Every faction and character is, to some extent, open to interpretation. The GM sections of the rulebook even gives you advice for running NPCs as High Road, Middle Road, and Low Road types.
• Crowning Moment of Funny - The rulebook has one, of all things. In the description for Videomancers:
  Paddy Orleans has fetishized a number of shows, and he needs a lot of significant charges to fuel his habit of calling fictional characters to life for half-hour increments. Usually he does this for purposes of bizarre sexual gratification, but at least one guy who pissed him off is now in an asylum, convinced that Mr. Clean and the Pillsbury Doughboy are going to jump him again the next time he sleeps.
• Harsher in Hindsight - Fly To Heaven from the sourcebook One Shots; a rip roaring adventure about plowing a passenger jet into Sears Tower in order to ascend to the archetype of The Terrorist played better in 1998. Hopefully it is no longer considered Too Soon. Lampshaded in the second edition, which was released after 9/11.
• Memetic Badass: in the game, Bruce Lee has become such a Memetic Badass that you can channel his sheer badassery through ritual magic.
• Nightmare Fuel: The Freak is accompanied by the sound of rattling chains. These chains are strung right through its torso. It pulls them out if it needs a charge on the go.
