History VideoGame / TheLastSovereign

* BonusBoss: The game is littered with optional bosses that are generally significantly above the standard difficulty of their area or any reasonably upcoming mandatory bosses.

** When the topic of orc breeding comes up, Grubbak and the Impaler express disinterest in the facilities, albeit for different reasons - the Impaler is by all indications asexual, while Grubbak is gay. Well, as gay as a monogender being can be.]]

* WhipItGood: Whips are one of the weapon categories in the game. Unsurprisingly, they can be equipped only by the [[SuccubiAndIncubi succubi]].

* ADateWithRosiePalms: This is actually a ''combat maneuver'' for succubus characters. The most basic version heals a small amount of health and increases the character's stockpile of Sex Points (SP); more advanced versions can heal additional health, regenerate mana, provide buffs, or cure status effects.

* ThePowerOfLust: This is what fuels the succubi's magical abilities. In gameplay terms certain characters have SP (Sex Points) which can be spent on sexual-based skill. SP slowly builds up during battle from a low predefined amount capping off at 100, though certain [[ADateWithRosiePalms skills]] and [[ImprobableWeaponUser items]] speed up the process or preserve SP between battles.

* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask:
** Queen Janine of Yhilin. She didn't want to rule, but her husband died and now she is in charge of a kingdom where half the population and a significant portion of the nobles hate her.
** [[spoiler:Esthera, empress of the Orgasmic Empire]] also counts. Of course, being [[spoiler:a Succubus empress rather than a human queen]], the nature of her mask is different, but she does express frustration at having to constantly play the sadistic, merciless and domineering IceQueen to avoid showing weakness to [[spoiler:the other Incubus Kings]].

** Sex or more specifically semen is required for impregnation as with humans, but succubi can willfully control when they want to get pregnant, obviously useful for a race of nymphomaniacs. Additionally, semen can be absorbed anywhere on the succubus body. Males from any species can conceive with succubi as can orcs or succubi utilizing “futa” spells. Succubi using “futa” spells on women of any other species doesn’t work, however. So, a bit like a sexier version of how the [[Franchise/MassEffect Asari]] do it.
** Orcs naturally feel a primal urge to fuck women of all races, but despite this all orcs are sterile. Instead, as orcs grow older, gain experience, and have sex, they grow larger turning into ogres. Once an ogre has reached the upper limit of growth it splits into smaller fully formed orcs and the process repeats. If Succubi are similar to Asari, then orcs are more closely a mix of generic hentai orcs and ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' Orks, combining the former's uncontrollable sexual appetites with the latter's continuous growth and asexual reproduction.

** A rare somewhat-positive spin happens when as described in ObliviouslyEvil, a succubus volunteer at the new Church of Ivala in the Chalice States undergoes a ceremony explaining why humans are repulsed by unwanted sexual contact, she ends up tearfully asking why humans don't hate them more. It's implied that because humans were taught to think of [[RightForTheWrongReasons succubi as simple sex demons rather than their own race and thus didn't understand what made]] RapeASpecialKindOfEvil.

* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: During the Ardford Summit, a motion to exterminate the orcs in order to keep The Incubus King from raising a bigger army. Due to members such as Orcent, Stark and The Impaler, Simon realizes that the orcs have a chance for sentience, not without outside assistance, however, and depending on the player can, in fact, help stop the motion cold.

** Also apparently how Succubus society manages to function, because some succubi apparently have a fetish for things like administrative work or smithing, therefore turning their endless libido towards something socially useful.

* DualWielding: Several fighters in the party can do this: Aka can dual-wield knives, Varia swords or claws, and Uyae claws or fighting gloves.

* EloquentInMyNativeTongue: When the group meets Uyae, she struggles to communicate in their language. It looks like she's going to follow this trope, but then it's averted - she's just as incompetent in Zirantian as she is in Clentian. [[spoiler:This turns out to be an act - she is indeed quite eloquent in her native tongue, partly because she was taught an archaic form and uses words like "thee" and "thine".]]

* FantasticDietRequirement: Adult succubi all but require sexual energy and semen as a basic dietary intake, and become sickly and listless if they go too long without.

* LevelUpAtIntimacy5 : Not a completely straight example, as the affection scores, have no direct effect on leveling, but they still can affect gameplay in ways not related to relationship progression.

** Trin's (self-)duplicating ability comes in handy.

** During Simon's stay in the Orgasmic Empire, the game makes sure to tell you that many of the actions you can take will cost you X number of days to perform, but doesn't tell you how long your stay is. The chapter is a process of trying to get as much as you can for the time you spend.

** The Skullcrusher is introduced in the beginning of the Gathering and dies on its third day, without doing anything significant.

* SexFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Trin and Varia]] join Simon after he has sex with them; the former because he's the only one who could satisfy her (although she still remains sociopathic), and the latter because Simon fixed her [[DespairEventHorizon broken state]] during the act.

** When the topic of orc breeding comes up, Grubbak and the Impaler express disinterest in the facilities, albeit for different reasons - the Impaler is by all indications asexual, while Grubbak is gay.

* BornAsAnAdult: A lampshaded aversion when an old man upon seeing a succubus child for the first time admits that due to their overtly sexual nature he'd always thought succubi were formed as fully grown women.

** [[spoiler:Ralke, the wannabe ''orc'' hero who is obseesed with defeating the "Human King". Between his name, appearance, and mannerisms, it is implied that Ralph may have inadvertently influenced Ralke's creation.]]

* OurOrcsAreDifferent: Most of them are barely more intelligent than animals and are driven by their instincts to rape, kill and plunder. Paradoxically, they reproduce asexually. Subverted by the handful of intelligent orcs you meet.

* DoWellButNotPerfect: Enforced; the limited resources and money in game make it so that players have to pick and choose over certain investments and research opportunities to get the best outcome ''possible'', and even with optimizing the run, it's implied that it won't be possible to get all the best results without cheating.

* ImmortalityHurts: Stark, an orc who survives as only a [[LosingYourHead severed head]] due to a HealingFactor powerful enough to keep him alive but not powerful enough to regenerate his body and craves a death he cannot have.

* RatStomp: Parodied in the first chapter. Tal, the Chosen makes much ado about how many rats he's killed. How many? "Like a bunch." He's still at level one when you get him. And then in Stineford, the party can offer their services to a local barman whose cellar is full of rats. Of course, by that point, most of the party's levels are in the double digits (and they can kill said rats in a single hit from pretty much any attack, even a ''physical'' attack from one of the party's {{Squishy Wizard}}s), but he lets them at it anyway. Within said cellar are four different corpses all succumbed to rats.

%%* ExoticExtendedMarriage: The closest thing to most succubi have to equate marriage to is slavery.

* FromNobodyToNightmare: Turns out to be the norm for [[spoiler:Incubus Kings]]. Both the Incubus King [[spoiler:of Arclent and the Fucklord]] used to be completely regular (if petty and evil) mortals before [[spoiler:acquiring the shards]].

* ImmortalityHurts: Stark, an orc who survives as only a [[LosingYourHead severed head]] and craves a death he cannot have.

* UnequalPairing: Simon being a junior, if reluctant Incubus King means that there's a vast power differential between him and most of his partners. He doesn't abuse it, but still...
