--> '''Uthurja''': The Siddivata are not people. They’re stories.
* TheWildHunt: Present and Eldritch.

The work has been called as NewWeird extensively by the author, but also fits in the category of UrbanFantasy. It features humanoid characters known as anthros, alongside other races known as Sapients. Magic(k) is also a big factor in the story.

The work has been called as NewWeird extensively by the author, but also fits in the category of UrbanFantasy. It features humanoid characters has Cyber Punk and Urban aesthetics, with Magick powering computers and the plane of information known as anthros, alongside other races known as Sapients. Magic(k) is also a big factor in the story.
Datascape being a power source the Mages can use, allowing [[{{Technopath}} Technothurgists]] to exist. It's a weird mish-mash of Sci-fi and Fantasy tropes, bordering on Science Fantasy.



* {{Arcadia}}: Avalon is this. With laws of physics governed by Contracts made between Siddivata (Faery Kings) and AnthropomorphicPersonifications of various concepts and objects.



* Magitek: It feels like the Mund RUNS on this. Everything seems powered by Transmogrifiers, which are actually engines that "transmogrify" Tass, or solidified creational matter, into Diwa, which can be then converted into forms of energy, be it Electrical, Mechanical, and others.

The story focuses on the lives of Chrysanthemum and Quinen, living in a CityOfAdventure known as Throne City. Chrysanthemum is a strange, amnesiac girl with glowing pink hair, who seems to have qualms about the modern life in the Third Age. Quinen, on the other hand, is a rebel. Given the moniker Warlock after a certain incident that caused him to be kicked off of the Collegium, a WizardingSchool that floats within the city.

! Urban Reverie contains examples of:

* CityOfAdventure: So far, Throne City, capital of the Kingdom of Shen. From Tales, it seems Algol has this feel as well.
* FantasticRacism: It seems like this is the case for the anthros (the most Human race) against the other Sapients. Seeing how the races are treated and how you only see most of them in the Slums area.
* GreatBigLibraryOfEverything: The Cosmic Codex, although where it actually IS is up for debate.
* Magitek: It feels like the Mund RUNS on this. Everything seems powered by Transmogrifiers, which are actually engines that "transmogrify" Tass, or solidified creational matter, into Diwa, which can be then converted into forms of energy, be it Electrical, Mechanical, and others.
* RealityWarper: It seems like the Dean, Hakumatheia, is capable of this. He is, after all, the most powerful Magicker in the Collegium.
* SufficientlyAnalyzedMagic: It seems like this, but it feels like it's the other way around, with Science in the world being more like Magick.
* UrbanFantasy: It's about fae-like girls and Magickers fighting against demons from parallel worlds within a city that has looming skyscrapers and stacked squatters abodes.
* NewWeird: With a fantasy world driven to the point of Cyberpunk because of Magical Technology that harnesses the underlying subatomic particles that govern Magic, this seems to perfectly fit in.
