* MikeNelsonDestroyerOfWorlds: Is joked about in posts on the thread, such as how Natalie could be lured into assassinating the [[BarrierMaiden God-Emperor]] by [[CharmPerson Luce]], as well as within Natalie's own self-talk at times, when she's trying to avoid responsibility for her actions.

None

Added DiffLines:

* DemonicPossession: Early on, Luce tries to pull this off on Nat. A quick visit to Skeryn's cryogenically-frozen [[AntiMagic Blank]] quickly dissuades her, and later in the story she decides Nat is much more interesting as a summoner than a bodysuit.

* BewareMyStingerTail: Natalie gets one later on in Natalie's most useful and prominent mutation for most of the story.
*
story is a dangerous bladed tail that can inflict stabbing and slashing wounds, feels pleasurable for her to use in combat (or against less equal victims), and comes with combat instincts. It's well-earned, considering she got it after [[spoiler: [[KickTheDog sacrificing a case]] of [[YourSoulIsMine Eldar Spirit Stones to Slaanesh]]]].

Added DiffLines:

* FairWeatherMentor: Downplayed with Skeryn. She ''does intend'' for Natalie to survive the large-scale ritual she's preparing her for, and would ''prefer'' to not have to directly mind-break and sculpt her psyche into shape for it, but she ''is'' prepared to do so and mostly sees Natalie as an amusement. See also her entry under SinkOrSwimMentor.

to:

* AffablyEvil: Skeryn, [[spoiler: and Natalie more and more]]more



* TheGadfly: Skeryn, mostly though not exclusively to Natalie. She starts out messing with Natalie by deliberately playing to Nat's expectations of her being a monster, then develops a habit of throwing Natalie into situations without giving her relevant information - or much information or preparation at all. Also, the constant cannibalism 'jokes' - and as Natalie notes, she likely can't call Skeryn's bluff, because she ''[[AffablyEvil probably isn't bluffing]]''.



* HumanSacrifice: A major first step for the beginning cultist.

to:

* HumanSacrifice: A major first step for the beginning cultist. Other rituals also involve or utilize human deaths.


Added DiffLines:

* SinkOrSwimMentor: Skeryn is a Downplayed example to Natalie. She ''does'' provide her with study materials and basic techniques on controlling the Warp, using Psyker powers, and invoking Warp rituals, but is aloof otherwise and ''very'' rarely directly teaches her anything. Also, she had her forcibly exposed to a Blank to get her to understand her nature as a Psyker, explicitly because she was too impatient to use slower methods. Last but certainly not least, the denial of information on her missions and the locales she sends Natalie to...

* BerserkButton: Do NOT mess with Nat's tail.
* BewareMyStingerTail: [[spoiler: Natalie]] gets one later on in the story.

to:

* BadBoss: Discussed with Skeryn, though no outright answer is ever given. Where ''does'' she get her ritual sacrifice victims; are they [[YouHaveFailedMe failed]] members of her crew, or simple kidnapping victims, or deliberately purpose-recruited, or...?
** Downplayed at the very least with her apathy towards Natalie and Luce's encounter aboard her ship involving several victims.

to:

* CombatPragmatist: Natalie challenges a Khornate quite deliberately embraces this, and will openly advocate for exploiting any advantage you can get to win a fight to the death, a warrior who fight.
** Nearly all of her
fights honorably with melee weapons. Khornates end in either psykery or other trickery, such as when she explicitly agrees to fight without using her Psyker powers. The second the match starts? The warrior's legs are shot off by Simms, [[ColdSniper Simms]], one of Natalie's ...Friends?

%%*
GuileHero: Natalie.Natalie. (Hahaha, 'hero' is a big ol' stretch for her.)



* InterplayOfSexAndViolence: [[SenseFreak Slaanesh]] certainly likes this trope; while nothing openly lewd happens onscreen, these themes crop up a ''lot''.
** Rituals done in Slaanesh's name usually both involve murders and prove highly pleasurable for Natalie.
** Her Slaanesh-gifted murdertail is also entirely ''too'' pleasurable for her to use.
** Nat's offscreen encounters with Luce seem to invariably be very sexual, very pleasurable, and involve a bodycount if not outright cannibalism.
** Skeryn trades for a number of artifacts, including a sword that induces intense pleasure in its victim, and of course decides to test it on Natalie.

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Skeryn, the Treachery of Flesh, Who Teaches Flesh Betrayal.

to:

* VillainProtagonist: Nat would probably be Natalie. Completing a murder-ritual under the villain threat of death or mind-breaking brainwashing is one thing, but she 100% had the choice to leave the [[spoiler: Eldar Spirit Stones]] right where they were, and not become involved in any other story.that affair, rather than ''deliberately sacrificing them to eternal torture and/or consumption by Slaanesh''.
