History VideoGame / IdleChampionsOfTheForgottenRealms

* AscendedExtra: Nat, Jenks, and Squidly from the Dragon Heist adventure play a bigger role in the Wild Beyond the Witchlight adventure with the latter two getting lost starting the plot.

* AllThereInTheManual: Celeste and Makos are from the Neverwinter PC game. During one storyline in the game, Celeste gets [[AndThenJohnWasAZombie raised as a zombie thanks to Makos]] which explains why she has a zombie skin. The game does not say this in their bios.

** The two huge bears encountered in Escort To Waterdeep are fought together. Bruenor even lampshades this by asking if those bears were friends of each other.

* HughMann: A recent update introduced a new Champion known as Hew Maan, described as "a definitely human champion and [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial not at all three kobolds in a trench coat]]".
* HunterOfMonsters: Both Minsc and Zorbu are of the Ranger class and have the "Favoured Enemy" abilities. This makes all enemies of the selected category take a huge magnitude of multiplied damage from attacks by the entire party, not just Minsc and Zorbu alone.

* AdaptionalVillainy: Jaraxle is listed as NeutralEvil even though the game uses 5th edition (where he is ChaoticNeutral) modules. He does act more chaotic neutral though.

** Arkhan also gets a bit more dialogue in the Decent into Avernus levels.* AdaptationalWimp: Several ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' monsters have their offensive or defensive capabilities nerfed in this game. For example, the [[{{Intangibility}} normally-incorporeal]] [[LivingShadow Shadows]] can be harmed by anyone, even those without magic weapons.

* ADayInTheLimelight: Jaraxle takes center stage during the Dragon Heist levels. [[FridgeBrilliance: It is where he makes his 5th edition debut, and he is a major character in it]].
** Arkhan also gets a bit more dialogue in the Decent into Avernus levels.

* DeadpanSnarker: Several of the characters will engage in snark every now and then.

* BadassLesbian: Birdsong is potentially one of the most powerful damage dealers and one of the better buffers in the game. It's also revealed in the Grand Revel storyline that she's in love with a female human Templar.

Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms is an IdleGame by Codename Entertainment, best described as ''VideoGame/CrusadersOfTheLostIdols'' meets ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons''. Like its predecessor, it has a party formation mechanic where characters buff other characters depending on their positions, as well as an equipment mechanic that boosts the capabilities of your characters.

* AprilFoolsDay: On 2019 April Fools, an announcement on [[http://codenameentertainment.com/?page=idle_champions&post_id=860 Spurt the Kobold Inventor]] as a "new champion" was made. Turns out, a later stream revealed that he ''is'' planned to be added to the game, mainly due to how hilarious the concept was.

* OurGiantsAreBigger: The villain in the Festival of Fools event is Wrendor, a Frost Giant. He's so tall to the point where his head ''doesn't fit on screen''.

* LethalJokeCharacter: Spurt the Kobold Inventor. He's based off a ''WebVideo/CriticalRole'' character whose sole purpose was to die hilariously, and his abilities include using centipedes to buff his allies' damage and wasps to attack enemies. His ultimate is even more ridiculous, causing him to re-enact his canon demise by provoking an off-screen fire giant to smash him with its hammer, which damages all enemies and "kills" him, turning him into a spirit which greatly increases the effects of all his buffs. His centipede buffs, however, are actually rather strong as they start stacking multiplicatively whenever he's "dead".

* DeathIsCheap: In most adventures, Champions who die will be revived at full health once you move to another area. Should your entire party be wiped out, you'll simply be sent back to the last area you cleared.

* TurtlePower: Gromma Nander is an elderly Tortle Druid who is not only one of the most durable Champions, she also provides good support abilities in her spell specializations.

* ThePlaguemaster: Krull's main draw is his capability to inflict enemies with different plagues that stack and get more intense over time. Pilfer causes them to [[LootMakingAttack drop more gold]], Pain [[DamageIncreasingDebuff makes them take more damage]], and Traitor causes [[{{Synchronization}} enemies nearby to take 10% per stack of the damage that the infected unit took]].
