History VisualNovel / TyrionCuthbertAttorneyOfTheArcane

* NoodleIncident: The incident that caused Beatrice to lose her sight is referred to multiple times, but it is never explained what exactly happened to her, other than it was some kind of experiment that [[FreakLabAccident went wrong]].

* TitleDrop: At the end of the game, [[spoiler: when Tyrion confronts Eris on the witness stand.]]
-->[[spoiler:Eris: Tyrion Cuthbert... Attorney of the Arcane.]]

* FourthWallObserver: Eris comments on much of the ''Ace Attorney'' aspects, such as how exciting the legal battles are or not having any special dialogue written for irrelevant evidence presented to her, which [[AudienceWhatAudience confuses Tyrion]].

* {{Expy}}: Several characters are similar to some from ''Ace Attorney'':
** Tyrion is a combination of the three protagonists: He has the personality of Phoenix, his powers manifests via a glare like Apollo, and his Eye of Horus is similar to [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyDualDestinies Athena Cykes]]'s Mood Matrix with both abilities allowing the user to read the mood of others and both characters having to deal with SensoryOverload in their childhood.
** Ruby Tymora is this to Mia Fey, being the older female mentor of the protagonist, and they even are mostly dressed in black. [[spoiler: Unlike Mia, she lives until the end, and is more morally grey than Mia.]].
** Celeste is to Maya Fey, being the chippy companion of the main lawyer [[spoiler:that are the heirs to a powerful magical bloodline]].
** Orym White is this to Dick Gumshoe, being the lead investigators in the cases investigated by Tyrion. Orym however, is more serious and competent.
** Aria Steelwind is this to Miles Edgeworth, as both are the FriendlyRival prosecutor to the protagonist, despite their ruthlessness in court, [[spoiler:and the final cases of their first appearances has them as the defendant that has to be defended by the protagonist]].
** Beatrice Frega is this to Machi Tobaye, the third defendant of ''[[VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney Apollo Justice]]'', as they were both accused of a complex murder scheme despite them being blind. [[spoiler:A major twist in their respective cases is also that they both can actually see. In Machi's case, it was a marketing ploy to hide the fact that Lamiroir was actually the blind one, while Beatrice was using the eyes of her demon familiar to see anything. But unlike Machi, who was only an accomplice, Beatrice actually masterminded the murder she was accused of.]]
** Eris Illmater is this to [[spoiler: [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyTrialsAndTribulations Dahlia Hawthorne]], being the BitchInSheepsClothing BigBad of their respective games. Unlike Dahlia, who was a human-turned-ghost that continued to manipulate people and cause chaos from beyond the grave in the final case, Eris is secretly a demon called the "Empress of Discord" that tricks people into entering contracts to do her bidding. Both were also dedicated to torment an individual: Maya Fey for Dahlia, Tyrion for Eris.]]
** There may be influences from other forms of media, such as:
*** It's more than likely that Aster de Wyverngarde is an expy of [[spoiler: Griffith from ''Manga/{{Berserk}}''. Both are white haired attractive young men with the goal of fixing their corrupted kingdoms through sacrifice and spilling blood. Both make deals with demons to accomplish their goals, and both seduce nobles in order to accomplish this. They both originally seem noble and just. The difference being that Aster was always the prince, while Griffith came from nothing but still wished to be king.]]

** Beatrice Frega is this to Machi Tobaye, the fourth defendant of ''[[VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney Apollo Justice]]'', as they were both accused of a complex murder scheme despite them being blind. [[spoiler:Unlike Machi, Beatrice could secretly see using the help of her demon familiar, and she actually masterminded the murder.]]

* PlotHole: [[spoiler:Beatrice]] used a powerful evocation spell to steal the Sword of Spell Eating, but [[spoiler:when you get her Spell Compendium in Case 5 there is no evocation spell listed]]. Possibly an oversight by the developers.

* {{Patricide}}: [[spoiler:Beatrice Frega]] kills her father. [[spoiler:She always saw him as an "[[AbusiveParents unstoppable, tyrannical force]]" who sought every excuse to belittle her, control her, and ensure that she would never inherit House Frega despite being a very powerful mage and his firstborn, to the point she left home five years prior to the game because she couldn't take it anymore. He also wasn't very nice towards her younger sisters. It's implied she didn't really plan to kill him when she returned (instead she just wanted to blackmail him into surrendering the entire estate to her so she could fulfill the terms of a DealWithTheDevil she had made), but was "forced" to improvise a murder plot when the {{blackmail backfire}}d. Of note is that she thinks of herself as an accomplice to the crime and not really responsible for it, when in actuality she indirectly ordered her {{familiar}} to kill him. He couldn't have done it without her explicit permission to harm him.]]

* {{Expy}}:
** Tyrion is a combination of the three protagonists of Ace Attorney: He has the personality of Phoenix, his powers manifests via a glare like Apollo, and his Eye of Horus is similar to [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyDualDestinies Athena Cykes]]'s Mood Matrix with both abilities allowing the user to read the mood of others and both characters having to deal with SensoryOverload in their childhood.

** Eris Illmater is this to [[spoiler: [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyTrialsAndTribulations Dahlia Hawthorne]], being the Main/BitchInSheepsClothing Main/BigBad of their respective games.

* {{Expy}}: Tyrion's Eye of Horus is similar to [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyDualDestinies Athena Cykes]]'s Mood Matrix with both abilities allowing the user to read the mood of others and both characters having to deal with SensoryOverload in their childhood.

* SequelHook: In TheStinger, [[spoiler:the Archsentinel and High Inquisitor of Theocracy of Lumina discuss the events of Case 5, namely, how Tyrion and Eris's battle in the Court of Azathoth risked the entire multiverse and that Asmodeus has started to move his forces in response to Tyrion awakening his angelic powers against Eris, setting multiple upcoming conflicts for a sequel.]]

* AllMythsAreTrue: There's a legend about the origin of magic in Wyverngarde. Rathallion the Scaled Lord came down from the heavens and imbued some heroes with magic so they could win the war they were losing. These heroes were the first mages, and went on to found the noble houses of Wyverngarde. [[spoiler:Rathallion did exist, and appears in case 5 to fill the role of the judge.]]

** This is how [[spoiler:Beatrice Frega]] almost gets away with murder.

* ExactWords: [[spoiler:Both Tyrion and Eris]] are bound by this towards the end of case 5 [[spoiler:when arguing over Celeste's soul]], being unable to lie or make false statements.

* AsYouKnow: Early in the first case, Celeste is facing accusations from an unknown witness; the game goes out of its way to spell out the fact that witnesses aren't required to reveal their identity under the kingdom's laws, which everyone present should know perfectly well but which serves to make it clear to readers that this is a deliberate point divergence from American law (where the right to confront your accuser is enshrined in the constitution.)

* {{Transmutation}}: One of the schools of magic. Transmutation can be used, for example, to sharpen a blade, mend a structure, turn someone into an animal, or change the shape of a liquid.
