History Roleplay / ADynastyOfDynamicAlcoholism

* InvolutnaryDace: Amongst the torture methods Hultressa uses on Frederick is a potion of dancing, which causes him to dance nonstop long enough to require magical healing.

* HurtFootHop: [[spoiler:The ''entire greenskin race'' suffers this as backlash from Gork (or possibly Mork) delivering "WUN GREAT BIG WHALLOPING KICK" the walls of Karaz-a-Karak.]]

** The Nipponese also field improved blunderbusses, called aiansutōmu, during the Invasion of Nippon.

* TakenForGranite: The Chaos Dwarfs unnatural magic causes their sorcerers and daemon-smiths to eventually petrify. For example by the time of Karak Ungor Mulgrumkul has lost the use of his legs and has to be carried about on a palanquin.

* {{Unicorn}}: These are among the fey creatures that inhabit Athel Loren. Their fully sentient and have their own leaders. In recognition for his role in avenging their predecessor's death the current Prince lobbied for Frederick not being killed by the Asari when he was in Athel Loren,

''[[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/threads/warhammer-fantasy-a-dynasty-of-dynamic-alcoholism.13745/ A Dynasty of Dynamic Alcoholism]]'' is a [[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer}} Warhammer Fantasy]] quest hosted by Website/SufficientVelocityDotCom and run by [[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/members/torroar.328/ Torroar]]. It follows the tale of the drunkest Elector Count in the Empire, Frederick von Hohenzollern, as he rules over the province of Ostland and contends with problems of his land and wider Empire the only way he knows how: steel, gunpowder, and alcohol. Lots and lots of alcohol.

* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: On full display during the "Accursed Albion" event. [[spoiler: After Freddy's son Magnus and the other Trident heirs end up in Albion after some drunken escapades they and their troops end up agreeing to help the locals against the encroaching Fimir threat. During one big fight to recapture one of the magical Ogham Stones from some Fimir Dirachs (Sorcerers) Magnus, armed with ''Brain Wounder'' as a sign of trust from Freddy, ends up showing just how the sword got its name by throwing it straight through the eye of one of the two Dirachs. While effective Magnus internally admits it's not exactly the proper way to use a sword and wonders at what kind of chewing out Freddy will give him upon hearing how the family ancestral weapon was used.]]

->'''ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOG!!!!!! ME! BLEEDIN'! FOOOOOOOOOOT!!!​'''

* TomeOfEldritchLore: These abound in the Warhammer World, and the most prominent ones in this quest are the Nine Books of Nagash. Nine tomes into which the Great Necromancer poured his knowledge into, they became scattered across the known world in the aftermath of his death. One of them came into the possession of W'soran, the progenitor of the Necrarch bloodline, and from there passed into the hands of Zacharias the Everliving. That book is [[UncertainDoom presumed]] to have been destroyed in the mad vampires attempt at apotheosis. Another lied in the depths of Templehof and was claimed by a young Heinrich Kemmler. [[spoiler:Kemmler spent the succeeding decades and has managed to obtain two more. One from a vampire lording over the ruins of Mortkid and and another from Arnaud the Eternal on and island in the Great Sea.]]

** [[spoiler: Frederick manages to talk down an angry [[PhysicalGod Ariel]] by comparing her actions to that of Caledor II and Caradryel, the two Phoenix Kings the Wood Elves hate the most.]]

** Later while Frederick is aboard the ''Claw of Dominion'' Hultressa resorts to using these during her faux-interigation of Frederick, namely a potion of teeth, a potion of happiness and a potion of loyalty. Fredericks reaction to the first is a simple "ow" and he was able to partially resist the latter two.

* RunicMagic: A specialty of the Dwarfs, with their runesmiths and Runelords known for being the producers of some of the finest [[MagicalWeapon magical weapons]] in the setting, including Frederick's own blade ''Brain Wounder''.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Much to the surprise of everyone [[spoiler:the Dark Elf in control of the Claw of Dominion]] signals a retreat after being [[spoiler:heavily boarded]], outraging [[spoiler:Dreadbringer]], who was intent on continuing the assault and [[spoiler:Screamtaker]], who was furious that her [[spoiler:Black Ark]] was being stolen out from under her. To give an idea of how unusual this was, no [[spoiler:Ark]] had ever been defeated by Imperial forces before.

* YoungFutureFamousPeople: In the weeks before the Dark Elves assault on the Northern Trident Frederick's forces are joined by Kerillian of [[VideoGame/TheEndTimesVermintide Vermintide]] fame.

* GambitPileup: Kislev is on the receiving end of one of these involving [[spoiler:Ranald cultists, Venera cultists, the Bohka, Yellow Fang cultists, Torus Ivan Romanov, Skaven, and Lahmian Vampires.]]

* OffingTheOffspring: Natasha killed Logan's three Chaos tainted siblings with her bear hands after they tore their way out of her womb.

* {{Kirin}}: Or rather Qi-Lin. They resemble large warhorses with extra big hooves and horns like a unicorn and coats of every shade that can be found in the clouds. The Legion of An fielded a group of noble-born men and women mounted atop them, who served as the best scouts in An's army.

* MagicPotion: These appear on rare occasions. The first was one of Teclis' healing potions given to Frederick to heal him after his rampage in the Black City. The second is a potion of strength made by Morai-Wen from, amongst other things, a bonegrinder Giant's spinal fluid, mashed Ogre stomach muscles, powdered troll bones, the testicles of an alpha gryphon, mushrooms used by Might Goblin fanatics, forest dragon blood and a substance that is heavily implied to be cocaine. She gave it to Frederick due to his noted habit of fighting enemy commanders and it helps him to completely ''demolish'' [[spoiler:Orion.]]

* NayTheist: Frederick was one of these early in the quest, thinking the Gods to be useless for them having not destroyed the monsters of the world. Being a Warhammer Fantasy quest this irreverent attitude caused multiple problems for him, not least from the Order of the Silver Hammer. He gradually grew out of this attitude over the course of the quest, culminating in him receiving a religious revelation during his fight against the Daemonfused Black Orc Warboss Zurkam Steelbrain in Karak Ungor.

* StormingTheCastle: The forces of Nordland under Stephan and the Eonir under Naraiel storm and capture [[spoiler:the ''Fortress of Eternal Torture'' a Black Ark formerly under the command of Dreadlord Maranith.]]

* TrickBullet: The first (and so far only) of these to be introduced are hollowburst bullets, which are basically hollow-point bullets in spherical form.

* {{Tengu}}: These apparently inhabit Nippon. Not much is known about them beyond the fact that they can fly. It might be inferred that they were among the groups more loyal to Emperor Jubei as none of them joined An's army, unlike certain monks, Oni and shinobi.

* LuxuriousLiquor: Elven wines serve as the high end luxury drink of choice for many in the Empire, including Natasha and Sabine von Hohenzollern. And they are indeed very expensive, with Stephan mentioning the one bottle of wine from Laurelorn costs as much as a barrel of the already expensive Bugman's New.

* DefenseFeintTrap: Crown Princess An pills off a masterclass against her [[spoiler:uncle]] during the Siege of Tenshuto. She pretends to be grievously injured by a the anti-dragon poison of Deathmaster Splinter in order to lure him into the open so that she can defeat him.
