'''Basic Trope''': A desert with swords (or lances, or axes) sticking in the ground by their blades.
* '''Straight''': The Forlorn Plains, a barren field with lots and lots of swords sticking to the ground. A grim reminder of the monumental clash that was [[GreatOffscreenWar Battle of Seven Banners.]]
* '''Exaggerated''': The Forlorn Plains stretch for miles upon miles, with swords as far as the eyes can see. Battle of Seven Banners involved more than five hundred thousands combatant.
* '''Downplayed''': There are a few swords stuck in the middle of The Forlorn Plains.

* '''Subverted''': It looks like a FieldOfBlades from afar, but when you get close to it, it's just a graveyard where the headstones are shaped like blades.
* '''Double Subverted''': However, considering that the people here are giants who hurl massive boulders in battle, the spirit is the same.
* '''Parodied''': A Field of Improbable Weapons, such as frying pans, rolling pins, parasols, and ''books''.
* '''Zig Zagged''': The main characters aren't sure whether the rusting metals jutting out of the grounds are swords, or something else.
* '''Averted''': Despite the prominence of warrior culture and the many battles on the land, there are no FieldOfBlades.
* '''Enforced''': By combining barren desert and forgotten swords, the author is illustrating how [[WarIsHell everybody loses in war]].
* '''Lampshaded''': "I can make good use of those blades sticking around." "Hell no, you're going to disturb the dead."
* '''Invoked''': A king, who was never much of a warrior in life, ordered that his royal burial ground to be adorned with blades sticking to the ground so he can join his ancestors in the warrior heaven.
