------------------
!!This fanfic provides examples of:

%% * AdaptationDecay: Putting it mildly.
%% * AerithAndBob: Characters' names include Leif, Maoimi, Aveena, Karas, Thrnos, Monroe, and Arnold.
%% * AttentionDeficitOohShiny: Raynold's only defining characteristic.
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: For Leif, and it's mentioned that Cataros is an experienced spy while Rajh is a veteran warrior. By contrast, the rest of the council is mostly useless.
%% * BadassBoast: The SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}} is an attempt at one of these.
%% * BeigeProse: "Ahh he yelled as he slashed him his blood hit the floor."
%% * BlackComedyRape: Unintentionally so.
%% * CardboardPrison: Arnold talks his guards into letting him out and joining him in revenge against Leif.
* CurbStompBattle: Leif against everyone he fights. Lampshaded in the encounter with three of Arnold's guards (who, to be fair, as {{Mook}}s, wouldn't give most heroes any trouble, either).
%% * DarkerAndEdgier: Well, at least it's trying to be.
%% * DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: At one point, Thrnos bows twice in a single run-on sentence.
%% * DirtyOldMan: Arnold.
%% * DualWielding: Leif in his demon form.
%% Administrivia/ZeroContextExample %% * EnergyWeapon
%% * FatBastard: Arnold is fat, especially by the standards of ferrets. He's even described as one in-story.
%% * FatIdiot: Arnold. See TooDumbToLive.
%% * HugeGuyTinyGirl: Leif isn't actually all that big in his mortal form, but Maoimi apparently can't reach above his waist.
* InNameOnly: This thing bears no relation to the canon except for the fact that it's briefly mentioned that the characters are rats/mice/foxes/ferrets/whatever, and are the "evil" species of the world. Except Leif is half-rat half-mouse and is a good guy, yet is the leader of the bad guys ... [[MST3KMantra Try not to think about it too hard.]]
%% * IndecisiveParody: It can't be real, right?
* InterspeciesRomance: Leif's father was a rat and his mother was a mouse. He himself engages in the beginnings of a romance with the rat Maoimi, but the sequel "Blood omen" mentions that he eventually married another character named Maria, who was referred to as a human, though it's unclear if the author actually meant she was a human or if he just lost track of the fandom.
%% * InvincibleHero: There are no opponents who could present any sort of challenge to Leif.
%% * LaResistance: Maria and her mother are the leaders of the "rebel group zaridos".
%% * LargeHam: Leif. See "Narm".
* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Arnold's reaction to getting tortured to death amounts to "ahh".
* MostFanficWritersAreGirls: Averted - the author claimed to be a fifteen-year-old boy. The evidence suggests he is indeed male, but is probably lying about his age, if he's not trolling.
%% * MSTing: See links.
* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Leif Melyamos always seems to develop a new ability right when he needs one.
%% * NoEnding: The author appears to have gotten bored with it, or discouraged by the lack of reviews.
%% * NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Leif performs one on Arnold.
%% * NoPunctuationPeriod
%% * ObligatorySwearing
* OddNameOut: Arnold. See the MST:
-->"It's really just the 'Arnold' bit that's bugging me, because the first thing I thought of was [[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger the governor of California]]. You can tell the author's just out of ideas."
%% * [[OlderThanTheyLook Older Than They Sound]]: Maoimi.
* OneWingedAngel: Leif's bizarre winged transformation, which comes completely out of left field.
%% * RapeAsDrama
%% * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Leif.
%% * RedEyesTakeWarning: Leif.
* RougeAnglesOfSatin: Especially "Councilmen Rajh, Councilmen Arnold" etc. How many of each of them are there?
%% * "Common im defiantly a match for you"
%% * ScarsAreForever: On Rajh.
* SaidBookism: "Replied" is the most common alternative to "said", and is used so often it's almost a subversion.
* ShoutOut: The "crimson king" routine is a reference to the Music/DemonsAndWizards song "Crimson King". The song itself was based on Franchise/TheDarkTower, though it's unclear if the writer knows this. Also, in the sequel "Blood omen", the hero Zain sings the Music/{{Helloween}} song "Keeper of the Seven Keys" for reasons having apparently nothing to do with the story.
%% * SpellMyNameWithAnS: Raynold/Reynold
* StealthParody: The quality implies it's intentionally bad, though there's something eerily earnest about it.
%% * TeleportersAndTransporters: Leif as well as at least one other person.
%% * ToThePain: See SugarWiki/FunnyMoments.
%% * TheUnpronounceable: Thrnos.
* TooDumbToLive: Arnold falls for Leif's not very clever bluff when threatened with execution for rape, inadvertently confessing to his crimes while begging for mercy as Leif sentences him to death. It's suggested that had he not done that, Leif might not have had enough evidence to actually sentence him to death. He then breaks out of prison, and not only is dumb enough to want to kill Leif in revenge, but tries to rape a young girl first, pushing Leif's BerserkButton and earning himself a messy death at the hands of his OneWingedAngel form. Apparently, he didn't even think to bring the guards he recruited with him, although given how easily Leif dispatches them soon afterward, they wouldn't have done much good.
%% * UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Nobody reacts in the slightest to Leif's monster form and beam-shooting.
%% * VerbalTic: Leif often inserts "ehs" into his sentences, almost as much as [[Series/{{SCTV}} Bob and Doug McKenzie]].
* WaifFu: The first fight scene with Leif learning to shoot beams from his paw takes place when Leif is only three or four (we think, it's quite hard to tell with the clumsy pacing).
%% * WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma: When there actually ''is'' any punctuation whatsoever.
%% * WickedWeasel: Arnold is a ferret.
