!This Fanfic Contains Examples of:
*BigScrewedUpFamily: The Black Dragonflight.
*TheCasanova: Rudolphus Withering was one in his youth and he sired an impressive brood of bastard children through it, only three of which are known: Leonardo Withering, Eduard Von Andorhol, and Samantha Inkweaver.
*TheChessmaster: [[spoiler: Orion. He fakes his own death, plays Onyxia, Romathis/Nefarian, and Nalice for fools, and succeeds in using a proxy to wipe out a large chunk of the Black Dragonflight.]]
*CulturalRebel: Sabellian.
*CultureClash: Between the ruthlessness of the Black Dragonflight (which Onyxia is a strong adherent to) and the human...ness... of the humans.
*DeadGuyJunior: Sabelia. Subverted, however, with [[spoiler:Sabellian's actually being alive.]]
*DeadlyDecadentCourt: The Stormwind House of Nobles, most notably Lady Katrana Prestor, Lady Tariona White and Lord Stephen Fletcher.
*DeadpanSnarker: Sabellian. Most other characters have their moments of it.
*DeathByChildbirth: A very narrow subversion happened to Samantha Inkweaver in a timeline where Onyxia didn't drag her off the streets.
*EarnYourHappyEnding: For [[TitleDrop the Obsidian Dawn.]]
*EngineeredPublicConfession: Evanian and Onyxia scheme to pull this on Lady White, who Evanian fears will make an assassination attempt on Lady Prestor. He plots an assassination attempt with Lady White while Onyxia implants [[FakeMemories false memories]] in Bolvar Fordragon's mind about Evanian being present during a discussion they had at the same time. Evanian [[FrameUp then plants an accusing letter in her room,]] which she takes as him betraying her and decides to drag him down with her, which fails due to the FakeMemories.
*EvenEvilHasStandards: Though she contemplates both, Onyxia neither pushes Anduin off a roof or [[spoiler: uses mind control to rape Bolvar Fordragon]]. She also calls out Richard Hackett and his friends for ganging up on Myth, who's much smaller than them, and Anduin. Despite this, she does nothing to stop the death of children from the Defias or her refusal to send soldiers away from Stormwind.
** Nalice comes close to killing an infant Sabelia (and even suggests that Onyxia should do so), but to her credit she doesn't.
*FakeMemories: Onyxia inflicts these upon Bolvar Fordragon.
*GlorySeeker: A large chunk of the Brotherhood of Cinders and the Frostmoon Federation are these.
*GreyAndGrayMorality: With the exception of [[AlwaysChaoticEvil the Burning Legion and the Old Gods,]] everyone is varying shades of grey.
*HairTriggerTemper: Onyxia and Nalice.
*HalfHumanHybrid: Sabelia.
*HonorBeforeReason: Among the dragonflights, attempting to divorce your mate is punishable by death. Even in cases of rape (at least among the Black Dragonflight).
**It is hilarious to note, however, that you can ''kill'' your mate and worst-case-scenario everyone will shun you for a couple hundred years before forgetting about it.
*IDidWhatIHadToDo: How Onyxia attempts to justify the deaths caused by her meddling in politics.
*InterspeciesRomance: Between Onyxia and Bolvar Fordragon.
*LastMinuteBabyNaming: Bolvar Fordragon's parents were so convinced they were going to have a girl that they didn't bother to pick out a boy's name and had to make one on the spot.
*{{Leitmotif}}: An unusual written example. When Hora showed herself to Onyxia during a storm, Onyxia heard the repeating, tinkling bar of a vaguely familiar song, which is later revealed to be from a music box Hora showed whelpling Onyxia with a promise to deliver it to her as a signal in the future.
*[[LittlestCancerPatient Littlest Blood Plague Patient]]: Amandine Inkweaver.
*MamaBear: Onyxia.
*MeaningfulRename: After being banished by Bolvar Fordragon [[spoiler:due to her role in the Onyxia fiasco]], Samantha Inkweaver takes on the name Samia Inkling.
*TheMole: Lord Stephen Fletcher, who is revealed to be Evanian, one of Romathis' agents. [[spoiler: It is later revealed that Evanian was killed by Orion, who was working towards his own goals that included Onyxia and Romathis dead.]]
*MoralMyopia: Outside of the Black Dragonflight, no one particularly cares about the hundreds of dragon whelps the Brotherhood of Cinders slaughtered and they gain great recognition for it. Meanwhile Onyxia is, perhaps justly, considered atrocious and a vile beast for her crimes.
*NeverFoundTheBody: Sabellian. Invoked twice by Evanian.
*NoSocialSkills: Onyxia and Nalice when among mortals.
*OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Sabelia is almost exclusively called Saya.
*RepressedMemories: The Old Gods are implied to regularly induce it in their minions to varying degrees of success.
**Onyxia's memory of the War of the Ancients when Deathwing violently raped Sintharia and almost burnt her to death while Onyxia and her siblings were forced to listen. [[spoiler: She also repressed the memory of being raped (and then killing her rapist) and summarily getting victim blamed by everyone but Sabellian.]]
*RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Onyxia goes on one after [[spoiler: the Brotherhood of Cinders slaughters Blackrock and the Wyrmbog's populations]]. Out of 70+ present, they've not had a single fatality before engaging her. Less than half survive.
**[[spoiler: Orion also goes on one, though with much more tact, that allows the Brotherhood of Cinders to do the above.]]
*SilkHidingSteel: Tariona White.
*SympathyForTheDevil: After going through shop records and realizing how many of Onyxia's children were killed and turned into armor, Kair Emberfleet, though recognizing the enormity of her actions, feels quite bad for her.
** Tariona White, after hearing the inevitably of the Black Dragonflight's fate from Onyxia, calls it sad despite Onyxia being the reason for her suffering and says she feels sorry for her.
*TitleDrop: The Obsidian Dawn is the name of the group of Black dragons in part two.
*TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: [[spoiler: Amandine Inkweaver. In her final moments, her mother, Samantha, cradles her, saying [[SoProudOfYou how proud she was of her]], calling her "a gift from the Light" and saying that "The Light loved her so much it wanted her back".]]
*TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: Sabelia. Justified, given her family.
** Young Katrana Prestor came off like this to those who didn't know she was actually a 10,000 year old Black Dragon.
*UncannyFamilyResemblance: The Prestors.
** [[spoiler: IdenticalTwins Katrana and Katrina, who apparently look quite like their mother Alana Silversilk. Katrina's son Richard looks so similar to his mother that Anduin wondered if Katrana had mothered a bastard child or had an impossibly younger sibling, and Saya is almost a carbon copy of Katrana with green eyes.]]
** The Black Dragonflight is so inbred that the usually unique, brood-based pattern of spikes on the eggs are similar to the point of being mistakable as another brood's egg.
*UnstoppableRage: Onyxia. When she's enraged, people die. Horribly.
*VillainProtagonist: Onyxia, though she [[CharacterDevelopment eventually turns into an]] AntiHero.
*WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Onyxia made no attempts to use more... ''forceful'' methods to get Leonardo Withering to stop poaching and enslaving her children. [[WhatAnIdiot She even tried to defend him from Murkion during an attempted assassination.]]
*XanatosGambit: [[spoiler: Orion pulls one hell of a gambit. He uses the lack of communication between Onyxia and Romathis/Nefarian to drive a gap between the two, then the status he has gained in the guise of the Scalebane Evanian to falsify suggestions from Romathis, up to the suggestion that, in order to avoid the Dragonsbane testing and increase her diminishing control over Bolvar, she get pregnant with his spawn.]]
**If she failed, she'd die and Blackrock would fall.
**If she succeeded, [[spoiler: she'd be pregnant with a half-blood.]]
***If she was found out, she'd either be killed [[spoiler: for lack of SpeciesLoyalty or forced to bend the knee to avoid an internal civil war,]] and he knew she'd take painstaking precautions to avoid such.
*** If she wasn't found out, she'd still have a biting paranoia towards Romathis because she thought it was ''his'' suggestion.
***Regardless of outcome, she'd be unable to do anything for several months, because [[spoiler: Orion knew she loved all of her children dearly, and wouldn't abort one even if she knew it could get a lot of people killed and would grow up with dragonsblood-induced insanity and likely die young and painfully.]]
** Eventually she learned of this, [[spoiler: but he had a contingency plan. She sends Nalice after him when he flees to release Reginald Windsor, who had the tablets that would reveal her as a dragon and would also result in the aforementioned slaughter of Blackrock, but he frees Windsor before she catches up.]]
Horadormi, a young Bronze dragon, uses an alternate timeline to try and save the Black Dragonflight from extinction and redeem them in the eyes of the world by altering the actions of Onyxia and those around her in Stormwind.
It is currently in progress.
----
!This Fanfic Contains Examples of:
*BigScrewedUpFamily: The Black Dragonflight.
*TheCasanova: Rudolphus Withering was one in his youth and he sired an impressive brood of bastard children through it, only three of which are known: Leonardo Withering, Eduard Von Andorhol, and Samantha Inkweaver.
*TheChessmaster: [[spoiler: Orion. He fakes his own death, plays Onyxia, Romathis/Nefarian, and Nalice for fools, and succeeds in using a proxy to wipe out a large chunk of the Black Dragonflight.]]
*CulturalRebel: Sabellian.
*CultureClash: Between the ruthlessness of the Black Dragonflight (which Onyxia is a strong adherent to) and the human...ness... of the humans.
*DeadGuyJunior: Sabelia. Subverted, however, with [[spoiler:Sabellian's actually being alive.]]
*DeadlyDecadentCourt: The Stormwind House of Nobles, most notably Lady Katrana Prestor, Lady Tariona White and Lord Stephen Fletcher.
*DeadpanSnarker: Sabellian. Most other characters have their moments of it.
*DeathByChildbirth: A very narrow subversion happened to Samantha Inkweaver in a timeline where Onyxia didn't drag her off the streets.
*EarnYourHappyEnding: For [[TitleDrop the Obsidian Dawn.]]
*EngineeredPublicConfession: Evanian and Onyxia scheme to pull this on Lady White, who Evanian fears will make an assassination attempt on Lady Prestor. He plots an assassination attempt with Lady White while Onyxia implants [[FakeMemories false memories]] in Bolvar Fordragon's mind about Evanian being present during a discussion they had at the same time. Evanian [[FrameUp then plants an accusing letter in her room,]] which she takes as him betraying her and decides to drag him down with her, which fails due to the FakeMemories.
*EvenEvilHasStandards: Though she contemplates both, Onyxia neither pushes Anduin off a roof or [[spoiler: uses mind control to rape Bolvar Fordragon]]. She also calls out Richard Hackett and his friends for ganging up on Myth, who's much smaller than them, and Anduin. Despite this, she does nothing to stop the death of children from the Defias or her refusal to send soldiers away from Stormwind.
** Nalice comes close to killing an infant Sabelia (and even suggests that Onyxia should do so), but to her credit she doesn't.
*FakeMemories: Onyxia inflicts these upon Bolvar Fordragon.
*GlorySeeker: A large chunk of the Brotherhood of Cinders and the Frostmoon Federation are these.
*GreyAndGrayMorality: With the exception of [[AlwaysChaoticEvil the Burning Legion and the Old Gods,]] everyone is varying shades of grey.
*HairTriggerTemper: Onyxia and Nalice.
*HalfHumanHybrid: Sabelia.
*HonorBeforeReason: Among the dragonflights, attempting to divorce your mate is punishable by death. Even in cases of rape (at least among the Black Dragonflight).
**It is hilarious to note, however, that you can ''kill'' your mate and worst-case-scenario everyone will shun you for a couple hundred years before forgetting about it.
*IDidWhatIHadToDo: How Onyxia attempts to justify the deaths caused by her meddling in politics.
*InterspeciesRomance: Between Onyxia and Bolvar Fordragon.
*LastMinuteBabyNaming: Bolvar Fordragon's parents were so convinced they were going to have a girl that they didn't bother to pick out a boy's name and had to make one on the spot.
*{{Leitmotif}}: An unusual written example. When Hora showed herself to Onyxia during a storm, Onyxia heard the repeating, tinkling bar of a vaguely familiar song, which is later revealed to be from a music box Hora showed whelpling Onyxia with a promise to deliver it to her as a signal in the future.
*[[LittlestCancerPatient Littlest Blood Plague Patient]]: Amandine Inkweaver.
*MamaBear: Onyxia.
*MeaningfulRename: After being banished by Bolvar Fordragon [[spoiler:due to her role in the Onyxia fiasco]], Samantha Inkweaver takes on the name Samia Inkling.
*TheMole: Lord Stephen Fletcher, who is revealed to be Evanian, one of Romathis' agents. [[spoiler: It is later revealed that Evanian was killed by Orion, who was working towards his own goals that included Onyxia and Romathis dead.]]
*MoralMyopia: Outside of the Black Dragonflight, no one particularly cares about the hundreds of dragon whelps the Brotherhood of Cinders slaughtered and they gain great recognition for it. Meanwhile Onyxia is, perhaps justly, considered atrocious and a vile beast for her crimes.
*NeverFoundTheBody: Sabellian. Invoked twice by Evanian.
*NoSocialSkills: Onyxia and Nalice when among mortals.
*OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Sabelia is almost exclusively called Saya.
*RepressedMemories: The Old Gods are implied to regularly induce it in their minions to varying degrees of success.
**Onyxia's memory of the War of the Ancients when Deathwing violently raped Sintharia and almost burnt her to death while Onyxia and her siblings were forced to listen. [[spoiler: She also repressed the memory of being raped (and then killing her rapist) and summarily getting victim blamed by everyone but Sabellian.]]
*RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Onyxia goes on one after [[spoiler: the Brotherhood of Cinders slaughters Blackrock and the Wyrmbog's populations]]. Out of 70+ present, they've not had a single fatality before engaging her. Less than half survive.
**[[spoiler: Orion also goes on one, though with much more tact, that allows the Brotherhood of Cinders to do the above.]]
*SilkHidingSteel: Tariona White.
*SympathyForTheDevil: After going through shop records and realizing how many of Onyxia's children were killed and turned into armor, Kair Emberfleet, though recognizing the enormity of her actions, feels quite bad for her.
** Tariona White, after hearing the inevitably of the Black Dragonflight's fate from Onyxia, calls it sad despite Onyxia being the reason for her suffering and says she feels sorry for her.
*TitleDrop: The Obsidian Dawn is the name of the group of Black dragons in part two.
*TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: [[spoiler: Amandine Inkweaver. In her final moments, her mother, Samantha, cradles her, saying [[SoProudOfYou how proud she was of her]], calling her "a gift from the Light" and saying that "The Light loved her so much it wanted her back".]]
*TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: Sabelia. Justified, given her family.
** Young Katrana Prestor came off like this to those who didn't know she was actually a 10,000 year old Black Dragon.
*UncannyFamilyResemblance: The Prestors.
** [[spoiler: IdenticalTwins Katrana and Katrina, who apparently look quite like their mother Alana Silversilk. Katrina's son Richard looks so similar to his mother that Anduin wondered if Katrana had mothered a bastard child or had an impossibly younger sibling, and Saya is almost a carbon copy of Katrana with green eyes.]]
** The Black Dragonflight is so inbred that the usually unique, brood-based pattern of spikes on the eggs are similar to the point of being mistakable as another brood's egg.
*UnstoppableRage: Onyxia. When she's enraged, people die. Horribly.
*VillainProtagonist: Onyxia, though she [[CharacterDevelopment eventually turns into an]] AntiHero.
*WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Onyxia made no attempts to use more... ''forceful'' methods to get Leonardo Withering to stop poaching and enslaving her children. [[WhatAnIdiot She even tried to defend him from Murkion during an attempted assassination.]]
*XanatosGambit: [[spoiler: Orion pulls one hell of a gambit. He uses the lack of communication between Onyxia and Romathis/Nefarian to drive a gap between the two, then the status he has gained in the guise of the Scalebane Evanian to falsify suggestions from Romathis, up to the suggestion that, in order to avoid the Dragonsbane testing and increase her diminishing control over Bolvar, she get pregnant with his spawn.]]
**If she failed, she'd die and Blackrock would fall.
**If she succeeded, [[spoiler: she'd be pregnant with a half-blood.]]
***If she was found out, she'd either be killed [[spoiler: for lack of SpeciesLoyalty or forced to bend the knee to avoid an internal civil war,]] and he knew she'd take painstaking precautions to avoid such.
*** If she wasn't found out, she'd still have a biting paranoia towards Romathis because she thought it was ''his'' suggestion.
***Regardless of outcome, she'd be unable to do anything for several months, because [[spoiler: Orion knew she loved all of her children dearly, and wouldn't abort one even if she knew it could get a lot of people killed and would grow up with dragonsblood-induced insanity and likely die young and painfully.]]
** Eventually she learned of this, [[spoiler: but he had a contingency plan. She sends Nalice after him when he flees to release Reginald Windsor, who had the tablets that would reveal her as a dragon and would also result in the aforementioned slaughter of Blackrock, but he frees Windsor before she catches up.]]
