* OurElvesAreBetter: Examples abound during the Elf Saga, with the elves of Homestead falling into the "wood elf" category and the drow falling into the "dark elf" category.

Badass Gay isn't a trope anymore.


* CelibateHero: Moose, Cassandra, and Alex incorrectly interpret Gwynn's declaration that she will let no man touch her to mean she is this. Turns out there is [[BadassGay something else going on...]]

* TheBigGuy: Despite Alex's frequent references to him as this, Moose is a subversion.
