Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* DisabledLoveInterest: Led has prosthetic legs, and first believes Grubb isn't attracted to her because of them, but eventually realizes he's just really shy.
** Turns out Led is also ''really'' insecure; perfect strangers will often respond to her conversation option with gifts and requests for dates!

Added DiffLines:

** One of the key items needed for Led's flying bike is called a "power converter".

** [[spoiler: Much earlier than both is Corgan’s hometown of Armstrong. When the party makes it there, it’s already been reduced to burning ruins by the Chosen army.]]

None

Added DiffLines:

* CameBackWrong / InhumanHuman:
** [[spoiler:Layla]] is revived as [[spoiler: a Watcher]] after being killed. [[spoiler:Corgan]] doesn't take it well at first.
** [[spoiler:Maya]] is revealed to get the same treatment [[spoiler:at the very end of the game, having been fatally wounded by Doskias in the final battle.]]


Added DiffLines:

* DugTooDeep: The upper shells' Corite mining operations in Shell 7 unleashed the [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Hell God]], which destroyed the original Underlost village in the Mold Forest. [[spoiler: The party fights and slays the Hell God in its lair just before reaching the Core itself.]]

None

Added DiffLines:

* ReviveKillsZombie: Done in two variants, even. Healing spells damage the undead as per usual, while Grubb's and Led's Repair skill damages enemy robots. The latter is mentioned in the skill description. [[GuideDangIt The former, not so much.]]
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
None

Added DiffLines:

** [[spoiler: Led, however, isn't anywhere near as lucky, as Doskias succeeds in destroying Ankara through a combination of the Jinam soldiers wearing them down and then finishing them off himself after stealing their Doomsday Device.]]

* AngryGuardDog: Runner. And he's a robot, too!



* ArmCannon: Araym, ''literally''. He's still able to do thievery with those limbs. And demolitions, which is how he supposedly got them in the first place.



* BadassNormal: Maya, Corgan



* DarkActionGirl: Selina
* DarkMessiah: Doskias



* FaceHeelTurn: Selina, when she [[spoiler: saw Doskias almost getting killed by one of the good guys]].



* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Led [[ExploitedTrope exploits]] this trope, by acting as a young innocent cutie to random people in order to get some gifts. Some of those random people give a funny look once they realised she was a hit-and-run charmer. It doesn't work against the bartender who simply asks for ID.
* HandCannon: Maya's gun.



* PowersThatBe: The Creator

to:

* PowersThatBe: The CreatorCreator.



* TheAtoner: Selina, after [[spoiler: her HeelFaceTurn]].



* WrenchWench: Led Campbell is an excellent embodiment of this trope. She's a genius mechanic, her weapon is literally [[WrenchWhack an enormous wrench]], and she's so hot that total strangers will give her money or items.

The game takes place on possibly the strangest planet in the history of fiction(vying with ''Literature/{{Discworld}}''). Instead of your standard fantasy PatchworkMap, Septerra(Sep=seven/terra=world) is a ''literal'' LayeredWorld.

* DoomedHometown: [[spoiler: Maya's hometown is destroyed at the end when the continent is ripped appart and levitated to form the large sigil. Quite suprisingly it holds out until the finale.]]

Added DiffLines:

* FantasticRacism:
** Chosen view themselves as superior to everyone else.
** Most people think the creatures of Shell seven are really ''really'' weird, some even seeing them as little more than animals. This exchange between Maya and Aarym sum it up:
--> '''Aarym''': Might make good target practice.
--> '''Maya''': The bone pillars [[TemptingFate or the people?]]
--> '''Aarym''': What's the difference?


Added DiffLines:

* GameplayAndStoryIntegration:
** Led has prosthetic legs. As a result? She equips modifications for it.
** Multiple people simply purchase weapon upgrades
** After Jinam meets its demise, you can actually see it underneath Shell three.
** At one point, you need to enter the mold forest and, to get further, you need to equip a gasmask. But if you have Lobo, Runner, or Badu? None of them need a gasmask.
** The obvious solution of "Trying to use radio communications" as to why they use holographic recordings to act as letters does a lot more than just to be used as a plot device - the closer you get to the core (Past approximately the third shell) radio transmitters gets scrambled.

Trivia.


* DummiedOut: Early, pre-patch release versions of the game had one more card slot than there were cards. This caused some people to believe that they were missing a card, and scour the game for the (non-existent) card. It is, however, still believed that there was a card meant to go in that slot at one time, but it got cut or combined with another card.
