History VideoGame / NeopetsTheDarkestFaerie

** The Old Knight beats up Gnarfas, [[spoiler:but appears to be killed by the Werelupe King by a sneak attack soon after]]
** You planned to use the Fyora's Rod to defeat the Darkest Faerie, and it very well would easily defeat her, [[spoiler:except she tricks you into giving it to her]]

* NeverBringAKnifeToAGunFight: Shifty MacKite's grave stone reads that he brought a knife to a sword fight. he phrase is not firearm-based, but length-based.

* AttackItsWeakPoint: The Black Knight. Unlike most other bosses in the game, you can't power your way through this one. You'll have to attack his weak points when they get exposed. Unlike most other bosses with these, he doesn't periodically show it in battle. Instead, he uncovers different ones as the fight goes on, and you'll have to be quick in exploiting them with Roberta[[note]]As Tormund's sword strikes would just bounce off.[[/note]]

* BackStab: [[spoiler: Werelupe King stabs The Old Knight in the back, with a boomerang oddly enough]]

* InexplicableTreasureChests: Plenty in the game. Treasures inside a sewer? That's a bit odd

* SinglePaletteTown: Faerieland has a very deep pink-purple colour scheme

* ApocalypseHow: [[spoiler: The Darkest Faerie plans on dropping Faerieland on Meridell, destroying both. Since Meridell is very big, the scale of destruction is quite high]]

* BarrierChangeBoss: An interesting example. Undead Draik switches between using fire breath and ice breath, and blocking it is the only way to make him vulnerable. The player will have to switch between fire and water alignment shield everytime....or they can take the easy route and use the Nova alignment, which blocks everything.

* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere:
** The Undead Draik appears out of nowhere in the Meridell Vault and attacks the heroes.
