* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Claudia's plan to TPK the main cast. [[spoiler: The resulting epic, DyingMomentOfAwesome-laden session thoroughly satisfies the players, and helps bring closure to some of the personal dramas that were festering throughout the season. The rest of the Steampunk group realize Claudia went too far, and give her the cold shoulder after the game ends. And Arthur, who started the whole thing by killing Claudia's PC after she mocked him for losing his own, gets to finally have his 'loser' character not only killed, but killed in a heroic manner worthy of Noctus. And if that wasn't enough, he also gets to play his beloved Noctus again in the new cyberpunk setting. It also means that Noctus actually ''did'' outlive her character, which was a major part of her gloating.]]

* HeroicSacrifice: In the Season 2 Finale, [[spoiler: most of the team does this with only Corellia missing out on an opportunity due to a sneak attack]]

* CampStraight: Arthur is mentioned to have gone on a date with a guy, though he hasn't shown any other romantic interactions otherwise.

* KillItWithFire: Shane’s first action in the party is to burn down the inn to kill incoming legionnaires.
** [[spoiler: She eventually takes down the King by dousing herself with oil and hugging him as she lights herself on fire.]]

* BiTheWay: Corellia is off-handedly mentioned to have married an orc chieftan’s daughter and running off.
* BrattyHalfpint: Sam, Britney’s younger brother. He wants to join the game but isn’t allowed due to his age. [[spoiler: In the last episode of season 1, he gets to play the king, a role he reprises in the season 2 finale.]]

* GroinAttack: In the prologue, when the Corellia believes Noctus to be mindslaved, but doesn't want to kill him, Will's solution is to shoot him in the dick.

* SteamPunk: Mia's LARP group, introduced in season 2, are doing a Steampunk LARP. The group joins one session as guest [=NPCs=].

[=LARPs=]: The Series is a 2015 web series created by Geek and Sundry revolving around a group of [[{{LARP}} [=LARPers=]]] in their everyday lives.

* BrattyHalfpint: Sam, Britney’s younger brother. He wants to join the game but isn’t allowed due to his age. [[spoiler: in the last episode of season 1, he gets to play the king, a role he reprises occasionally later]]

* DistractedByTheSexy: Kat has done this twice to Evan, once in the game and once outside of it (while they were playing chess), in order to distract him and win

** [[spoiler: She eventually takes down the King by dousing herself with oil and hugging him as she lights herself on fire]]
* KillEmAll: What the Steampunk LARPers are trying to achieve during the last episode of season 2: kill everyone in the party. [[spoiler: they succeed, but the Guardians of the Eleventh Eye manage to still destroy it]]

* MacGuffin: The Eleventh Eye. While described as powerful throughout, it never actually sees any use within the story.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: In the finale, [[spoiler:Will suddenly goes in character after Corellia dies]]
* OppositesAttract: Britney is the member of the group the most into the roleplaying part of the campaign, while Will barely roleplays at all. They end up dating

* RashomonStyle: Season 2 episode 4 shows the same game session, noted to have almost caused a total party kill, from each player’s perspective

** Will’s was something out of a Creator/{{Coen Brothers}} movie with the setting, costumes and entire events changed so Biff kills the enemy with a gun.

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Claudia goes on one of these to get back at Arthur [[spoiler: personally killing three of the party. It fails not because it made the session epic rather than it actually resulting in her personal revenge]]
* TheRoleplayer: obviously, they're all roleplayers, but Britney aka Corellia ''really'' gets into the roleplaying side of things. This causes her some distress in Season 2 when she and Will break up but their characters remain a couple (because Corellia is an elf and an elf's love is eternal).

* SteamPunk: the other LARP group that the main cast occasionally interacts with are doing a Steampunk LARP

* LargeHam: Most players are this when in character.

* BrattyHalfpint: Sam, Britney’s younger brother. He wants to join the game but isn’t allowed due to his age. [[spoiler: in the last episode of season 2, he gets to play the king]]

* BrattyHalfpint: Sam, Britney’s younger brother. He wants to join the game but isn’t allowed due to his age.

* HeroicSacrifice: In the Season 2 Finale, [[spoiler: most of the team does this with only Cordelia missing out on an opportunity due to a sneak attack]]

* IdiocyncraticEpisodeNaming: Each episode aside from the prologues is named after some LARP term.

** In season 2, Will’s new boss is very intense about his board game café.

* FakeBrit: In universe. Kat normally speaks with the actress's real [[CanadianAccents Canadian]] accent but in game she goes into [[OopNorth Lancashire]].

** Arthur is mentioned to have gone on a date with a guy, though the guy does not appear.

** Will’s was something out of a {{Coen Brothers}} movie with the setting, costumes and entire events changed so Biff kills the enemy with a gun.

* BrattyHalfpint: Sam, Britney’s younger brother. He wants to join the game but isn’t allowed due to his age.
* DeadpanSnarker: Evan.
* FateWorseThanDeath: The Exiler. While the usual worst outcome for a player would be to have their character killed off, the exiler represents being removed from the game entirely.

** Shane’s could be described as the most accurate view of the events.
** Arthur’s involved every character describing him as weak and the most likely cause of everyone’s death.

** Will’s was something out of a {{Coen Brothers}} movie with the setting, costumes and entire events changed so Biff kills the enemy with a gun.
