The original plot, called Fat Fish Fury, came to be as a result of a feud between two forum members, and it has since grown into a massive fantasy story in which good, evil and aliens battle for the control of the world.

!!This comic provides example of:
* AirborneAircraftCarrier: The Vendetta.
* {{Ambidextrous Sprite}}: Several characters have scars and eye patches that work this way. Notably Oliver.
** Nilmerg Eht also seems to have suffered a lot of confusion about his eyepatch/visor/gadget/mask, and where they went. Admittedly, they changed too quickly for many people to remember which was which.
** Averted with Q, whose uniform is always on the correct way when he makes the comic.
* {{Anticlimax}}: Happened two times in the end of Fat Fish Fury, when the {{Big Bad}} Shades died ramming into a door to {{Another Dimension}} and when the god-like Arcane Lantern made the invading [[TheEmpire empire]]'s army disappear right out of thin air.
* AnnoyingArrows: Characters shot with arrows usually ignore them, and to the date nothing but {{Mooks}} have fallen to bowfire in ABR.
* AnotherDimension: The defunct Jouney Home plot lives and breathes this trope.
** The Squark Universe also counts, although its creator is fond of dropping obvious hints that its actually just a different galaxy.
* AntiHero: In Future Imperfect, almost every non-evil person in LaResistance is an Antihero to some extent.
* AntiVillain: Most of the UNA sincerely believes that they are doing good by hunting down [[LaResistance the Avbaroy Liberation Front]].
* AnAxeToGrind: Used many times, mostly by mooks or minor characters.
* AssKickingPose: Many of characters who are preparing for a fight get these.
* TheAtoner: Threeshades and Nilmerg Eht both fill this role well.
* {{Author Avatar}}: The comic is named ''Avatar'' Battle Royale for a reason.
* AxCrazy: Some of the cast are outright insane or just hell bent on slaughtering everything in sight.
* BackFromTheDead: Many characters in ABR have made a comeback from the dead.
* BadassBiker: Oliver, a planehopping foreign exchange student, and a resident Q.
* {{Badass Longcoat}}: Oliver, who received his trenchcoat from Puppetmaster. Also, quite a few people in FI seem to sport longcoats.
** The more obscure character of Squark sported one long before Oliver, but CanonDiscontinuity struck
** While not actually a 'coat', Grayscale wears a robe that actually seems TOO long for him.
* BattleAura: Many characters sport this when [[TookALevelInBadass taking a level in badass]], or are daemonic, super-powered or otherwise supernatural combatants.
* {{Benevolent Alien Invasion}}: The [[{{Nanomachines}} replicator-based Sovices]] seem pretty benevolent, as they managed to install world peace. It is ambiguous if they really are, though.
* {{BFG}}: These have made numerous appereances, amongst the worst offenders being chainguns, missile launchers, and lasers.
** Averted with Grayscale, who wields a tiny one-shot pistol.
* {{BFS}}: Used by many, many characters. To mind rise Jason Doomblade, Almighty Salmon (Well, he has used a knife bigger than himself), Mecha-Nightwing and Eita.
* {{Big Bad}}: The moon elf Threeshades, before her {{Heel Face Turn}}, her demonic possessors, and Ins, a nanobot spirit possessing a human corpse.
* BigDamnHeroes
* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: Don't even ask how some of the shots made in ABR are possible. Just go with RuleOfCool.
** At one point, Grayscale drops a large bomb from about twenty feet. It somehow does not go off.
* BelatedBackstory: Many of the recurring characters, but occasionally subverted.
* BottomlessMagazines: Named characters never run out of ammo unless it is determined by plot, or if they are using something that absolutely needs a reload after each use.
* BrainInAJar: The aptly named Brain from The Journey Home.
* BrotherChuck: Several, given ABR's revolving door cast.
* ButtMonkey: [=MasterRanger=], who is mocked for his poor art, lousy grammar, and insufferable God-modding.
** Squark is also regularly mocked (although he encourages it) for the now NoodleIncident of his original comics.
** Nightwing may be the best example. After people got sick of his narration of the fights, they turned killing him into a running gag.
* CanonDiscontinuity: Squark's early comics were not archived because they were basically one big godmod, and later, Squark himself deleted the comics off the face of existence out of shame. And because his art at the time now makes him nauseous. Unfortunately, this means that the Mecha-Nightwing Arc has a lot of plotholes.
* CasanovaWannabe: Q, shown when he's trying to pick up PC women, like Verra and Skimmer, and usually gets his ass kicked.
** He does have several wives and girlfriends though according to [[WordOfGod his writer]] and his backstory Prequel ''MyNameIsQ''.
* CerebusSyndrome: ABR in general seems to suffer from this a rather lot.
* CharacterCustomization: Every character in the story, naturally.
* [[TheChessmaster Chessmaster]]: Lyinginbedmon was initially introduced as a quasi-evil wandering spellcaster, who has gradually been revealed as more and more involved in maintaining global equilibrium.
** Grayscale sees himself as a chessmaster, but has a greatly inflated view of his own importance.
* ChessWithDeath: Parodied often with the resident Grim Reaper, Nameless, who also happens to be a {{Cloudcuckoolander}}.
* TheChosenOne: Leroy, a fat, childish fish, and his brother the flying Almighty Salmon, supposedly the only ones capable of defeating Threeshades' demonic possessors.
* CleanCut: Has happened many in random kills and sometimes even in the actual story.
* ClothingDamage: A bullet ricochets off the hull of the ''Heart of Booty'' and tears Alana's pants through the middle. No, really.
** Of course, this depends on your view of the art, as the 'pants' are little more than stick figure legs, and art drawn by the creator of the strip in question drew Alana with a skirt.
* ContinuityReboot: Fat Fish Fury: Reboot. Naturally.
** Future Imperfect is also being restarted.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Nameless and Mechafox.
* CoolOldGuy: Nearly twenty of those, some supposedly older than the universe. Lyinginbedmon is considered to have been the first introduced.
* CoolSword
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Pretty much anybody among the many from Arcania. Actually, pretty much everybody.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Future Imperfect, the sequel to Fat Fish Fury, is a much more cynical story than its predecessor, at least for the protagonists. Everybody else lives in an {{Utopia}}.
** All-Star... just wait and see
* DeadLittleSister: Many characters in Avatar Battle Royale have lost someone dear to them, generally in their insignificant backstory.
* DualWielding: Many characters dual-wield their weapons, some up the ante by adding in some ChainsawGood and automatic targeting systems.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Calamity.
** Nameless has boobies! has become a running gag.
* DuelToTheDeath: This happens between many, many characters. Usually they get interrupted in some bizarre fashion and HilarityEnsues.
* EarthShatteringKaboom: Explosive Apocalypse From the Sky, a spell designed just for this effect, can pretty much wipe out civilizations.
** To a lesser extent Rapture.
* EverythingsBetterWithPandas: Threeshades turns into a little panda.
* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: Guinoids, a race of anthromorphic penguins, and Sinister Penguin, an actual penguin. The setting even has a Time Guinoid!
* FaceHeelTurn and HeelFaceTurn: Happened all the time back when the sides were less defined. Sometimes characters would even forget what side they were on.
* FallenHero: Threeshades is probably the most notable Fallen Hero, though one could argue that it was only due to her demonic possession.
* FantasyKitchenSink: Squark is an Antromorphic Penguin Time Lord Jedi Deity. We could mention more characters, but that would be overkill
* TheFaceless: Nameless breaks his face, but you see it at the start.
* {{Flanderization}}: Mechafox has become increasingly malfunctioning and insane as time goes by.
* FoeYay: Between Threeshades and Salmon/Leroy
** And a little non-canon comic with Q and Lyinginbedmon seems to suggest this.
* {{Garfunkel}}: Green-shirted Q. He and Q are an equal duo, but Q gets most of the spotlight because his wirter likes writing for him more then GSQ. This will apparently be corrected in Future Imperfect.
* GatlingGood: Randomizer has used a gatling gun several times.
* GrimReaper: Nameless.
* GovernmentConspiracy: Them. "People don't believe the truth, the truth is what people believe" indeed.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Many characters sport scars even in Fat Fish Fury, even more will in Future Imperfect.
* GrumpyBear: Many people, such as Nilmerg Eht and The Q, tend to be moody, cynical, and irritable, and almost every protagonist in Future Imperfect is.
* {{Hell}}: The setting has Baator, which some characters have visited along the course of the story.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: Ins has turned everyone against the 'heroes', if they can be called such.
* HeroAntagonist: Most of the people in the United Nations of Avbaroy could be considered LawfulGood.
* HiddenElfVillage: Sharnin.
* HoYay: Small amounts between Kpenguin and Calamity. [[RunningGag *GROPE*]]
** Huge amounts between [[HeterosexualLifePartners the two Qs]].
* HyperspaceArsenal: Apparently many characters make use of such. Mechafox has hat that functions as this, and Grim Ranger uses spell to achieve similiar effect.
* ImplacableMan: Abr has long list of implacable men and women, but to the top tier rise Randomizer and Threeshades.
* ImpossibleThief: Beren of the TSS plot is one of these. Not only has he stolen a table (and since TSS takes place on a ship, the tables are nailed to the floor), he also stole Mr. X's wallet. And Mr. X does not have a wallet.
** He ups the ante immidiately afterwards by stealing Alana's rapier and using art change as distraction, and stealing the fourth wall to reveal it to the reader
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Skimmer fights with a giant bell.
* IncendiaryExponent: ABR in general makes good use of this rule.
* IneffectualLoner: Pretty much every "good guy" in Future Imperfect is a loner to some degree. Most notably Lyinginbedmon.
* {{Jerkass}}: Our own resident Q, a PhysicalGod and without a doubt Xartyve2 whos unlikeableness is just fantastic.
* JokeItem: Some characters have used truly laughable items as weapons in long and glorious history of ABR. These include eggs, soda, sticks, stones, heads and other body parts...the list goes on.
* KilledOffForReal: Stephen Mask (eventually), among others.
* KillItWithFire: Used many, many times in ABR. Especially magnificently done in recent a TJH strip, in which the villain uses a ''flame tank''.
* KillSat: There is one right in orbit over the planet.
* LaResistance: The ALF, fighting against the [[BenevolentAlienInvasion Benevolent Alien Invaders]].
* LastOfHisKind: Everybody wanted to come from Arcania once {{Remember}} was made. Really, the trope's pretty much averted now.
* LethalLavaLand: Episode 1 of TJH takes place in such an environment, and FFF's hell equivalents are often like this.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Far too many to count, as a result of the large amount of authors.
** Especially prominent in Future Imperfect, in which most people have multiple characters in case one of them dies, since in that plot, AnyoneCanDie.
* LosingYourHead: Several characters have survived decapitation with only mild annoyance, and ABR boasts an entire race with this ability.
* MeaningfulName: Mostly played for laughs, but Threeshades and some others play the trope straight on occasion.
** Grayscale is named because all comics he features in use this color tone. Although only when his author is drawing.
* {{Mooks}}: Make appearances in many, many combat scenes.
* MysteriousPast: No one seems knows anything about Sinister Penguin's history before he turned up towards the end of FFF.
** Xartyve2 traded his memories for ultimate Evocation powers.
* NoFourthWall
** Although this effect is lessened for the most part in FI.
* NighInvulnerability: Several characters, including Threeshades (unless you're Almighty Salmon). There was actually a literal 'Plot Shield' protecting the Vendetta at one point.
* {{Ninja}}: Used to a certain degree, but still not overdone.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: Bob and Nancy's underwear fight.
** Alana and Beren in TSS are seen by the crew on top of one another after she tries to retrieve her stolen rapier from him by bunny hopping into him.
* NukeEm: The Arcanian Jovocian missile technology: bringing nuclear warheads to a small nation near you.
* OffWithHisHead: Decapitation seems to be in style in ABR.
* OminousFloatingCastle: The citadel of Bis Anu. Subverted as it is not hideout of bad guys, but actually the HQ of the good guys.
* OmnicidalManiac: Vert Doom, debatably Nameless (as he is the grim reaper of the setting) and Q.
* OneLetterName: Q.
* OneWingedAngel: Threeshades has this as a standard power after a certain point in the story.
* OurSoulsAreDifferent: Souls have plenty of uses. Everything from antimatter and fuel.
* PsychoForHire: Diskord. [[spoiler:The Sadistic Crazy Spawn of Evil that was created by the left over magic of Fayte, and the evil of Threeshades.]]
* PoweredArmor: The machinists use this.
* {{Prequel}}: Everyone is making those about their character's backstory.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Igon Minoblendy (Aka Lyinginbedmon), who's history is being revealed in {{Remember}}, and many others.
* RedShirt: Averted in Q and Xartyve2.
* {{Revenge}}: ABR is full of revenge-inspired subplots, and sometimes even main plots.
* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: The [[LaResistance Avbaroy Liberation Front]] has no qualm about doing suicide bombings, indiscriminately slaughtering civilians and launching the equivalent of a nuclear missile in the central area of a densely populated metropolis.
** "It seemed like a good idea at the time!"
* {{RPG Mechanics Verse}}: Depends on the person making the strip.
* RuleOfCool: All over the place.
* SapientShip: Technically, Ven is just in charge of repairs and handling menial tasks onboard the Vendetta, but he can operate the ship if need be.
* {{Schizotech}}: The nation of Schizotec, possessing aircrafts, robots and artificial intelligences in a Middle Ages period, and the United Nations of Avbaroy, who possess full-colour films, tanks, 1860s weapons, airships and 1930s radios.
* {{Shipping}}: Brenen and Alana of the TSS plot. And this was by strip... 8? maybe?
* ShoutOut: Far, far too many to possibly list.
* {{Sidekick}}: Nameless to Lyinginbedmon.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Q.
* StuffBlowingUp: And how!
* TankGoodness: Or perhaps Tank Badness. The Machinists love this.
* TonightSomeoneDies: "The Death of Mechafox" was announced a week before the character was beheaded by the BigBad... only to result in a RoboticReveal. Happened several times with Stephen Mask, who's eventual death was declared a few comics before, but was subverted when authors made him alive in their comics, and the process restarted. He had to be ripped in half to be KilledOffForReal.
* UnusualEars: Along with catboys and catgirls, there are more than a few characters who have appeared with animal ears without having an animal in their family anywhere.
** Alana had bunny ears, for instance.
* VillainProtagonist: Several LaResistance members in Future Imperfect, notably Ersnt Schwarz and Chriky, to some extent.
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Ins is believed to be the 'saviour' of Avbaroy.
* WhosOnFirst: A variation appears almost every time Nobody introduces himself.
* WingedHumanoid: ABR has it's share of winged people. Notable examples include Threeshades, Eita, Calamity and Fayte.
* YourTerroristsAreOurFreedomFighters: The Avbaroy Liberation Front and the Sons of Schizotec, who could very well be the bad guys if not for the fact that the alien invaders have somewhat ambiguous intentions.
* OurGoblinsAreDifferent: Plotgoblins are custodians of the plot. Monogoblins are observers of the plot.
** And Grayscale seems to be a third type of goblin. He has an immense hatred of Plotgoblins.

The original plot, called Fat Fish Fury, came to be as a result of a feud between two forum members, and it has since grown into a massive fantasy story in which good, evil and aliens battle for the control of the world.
Not to be confused with WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender or BattleRoyale but it most certainly could be called a BattleRoyaleWithCheese.
----
!!This comic provides example of:
* AirborneAircraftCarrier: The Vendetta.
* {{Ambidextrous Sprite}}: Several characters have scars and eye patches that work this way. Notably Oliver.
** Nilmerg Eht also seems to have suffered a lot of confusion about his eyepatch/visor/gadget/mask, and where they went. Admittedly, they changed too quickly for many people to remember which was which.
** Averted with Q, whose uniform is always on the correct way when he makes the comic.
* {{Anticlimax}}: Happened two times in the end of Fat Fish Fury, when the {{Big Bad}} Shades died ramming into a door to {{Another Dimension}} and when the god-like Arcane Lantern made the invading [[TheEmpire empire]]'s army disappear right out of thin air.
* AnnoyingArrows: Characters shot with arrows usually ignore them, and to the date nothing but {{Mooks}} have fallen to bowfire in ABR.
* AnotherDimension: The defunct Jouney Home plot lives and breathes this trope.
** The Squark Universe also counts, although its creator is fond of dropping obvious hints that its actually just a different galaxy.
* AntiHero: In Future Imperfect, almost every non-evil person in LaResistance is an Antihero to some extent.
* AntiVillain: Most of the UNA sincerely believes that they are doing good by hunting down [[LaResistance the Avbaroy Liberation Front]].
* AnAxeToGrind: Used many times, mostly by mooks or minor characters.
* AssKickingPose: Many of characters who are preparing for a fight get these.
* TheAtoner: Threeshades and Nilmerg Eht both fill this role well.
* {{Author Avatar}}: The comic is named ''Avatar'' Battle Royale for a reason.
* AxCrazy: Some of the cast are outright insane or just hell bent on slaughtering everything in sight.
* BackFromTheDead: Many characters in ABR have made a comeback from the dead.
* BadassBiker: Oliver, a planehopping foreign exchange student, and a resident Q.
* {{Badass Longcoat}}: Oliver, who received his trenchcoat from Puppetmaster. Also, quite a few people in FI seem to sport longcoats.
** The more obscure character of Squark sported one long before Oliver, but CanonDiscontinuity struck
** While not actually a 'coat', Grayscale wears a robe that actually seems TOO long for him.
* BattleAura: Many characters sport this when [[TookALevelInBadass taking a level in badass]], or are daemonic, super-powered or otherwise supernatural combatants.
* {{Benevolent Alien Invasion}}: The [[{{Nanomachines}} replicator-based Sovices]] seem pretty benevolent, as they managed to install world peace. It is ambiguous if they really are, though.
* {{BFG}}: These have made numerous appereances, amongst the worst offenders being chainguns, missile launchers, and lasers.
** Averted with Grayscale, who wields a tiny one-shot pistol.
* {{BFS}}: Used by many, many characters. To mind rise Jason Doomblade, Almighty Salmon (Well, he has used a knife bigger than himself), Mecha-Nightwing and Eita.
* {{Big Bad}}: The moon elf Threeshades, before her {{Heel Face Turn}}, her demonic possessors, and Ins, a nanobot spirit possessing a human corpse.
* BigDamnHeroes
* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: Don't even ask how some of the shots made in ABR are possible. Just go with RuleOfCool.
** At one point, Grayscale drops a large bomb from about twenty feet. It somehow does not go off.
* BelatedBackstory: Many of the recurring characters, but occasionally subverted.
* BottomlessMagazines: Named characters never run out of ammo unless it is determined by plot, or if they are using something that absolutely needs a reload after each use.
* BrainInAJar: The aptly named Brain from The Journey Home.
* BrotherChuck: Several, given ABR's revolving door cast.
* ButtMonkey: [=MasterRanger=], who is mocked for his poor art, lousy grammar, and insufferable God-modding.
** Squark is also regularly mocked (although he encourages it) for the now NoodleIncident of his original comics.
** Nightwing may be the best example. After people got sick of his narration of the fights, they turned killing him into a running gag.
* CanonDiscontinuity: Squark's early comics were not archived because they were basically one big godmod, and later, Squark himself deleted the comics off the face of existence out of shame. And because his art at the time now makes him nauseous. Unfortunately, this means that the Mecha-Nightwing Arc has a lot of plotholes.
* CasanovaWannabe: Q, shown when he's trying to pick up PC women, like Verra and Skimmer, and usually gets his ass kicked.
** He does have several wives and girlfriends though according to [[WordOfGod his writer]] and his backstory Prequel ''MyNameIsQ''.
* CerebusSyndrome: ABR in general seems to suffer from this a rather lot.
* CharacterCustomization: Every character in the story, naturally.
* [[TheChessmaster Chessmaster]]: Lyinginbedmon was initially introduced as a quasi-evil wandering spellcaster, who has gradually been revealed as more and more involved in maintaining global equilibrium.
** Grayscale sees himself as a chessmaster, but has a greatly inflated view of his own importance.
* ChessWithDeath: Parodied often with the resident Grim Reaper, Nameless, who also happens to be a {{Cloudcuckoolander}}.
* TheChosenOne: Leroy, a fat, childish fish, and his brother the flying Almighty Salmon, supposedly the only ones capable of defeating Threeshades' demonic possessors.
* CleanCut: Has happened many in random kills and sometimes even in the actual story.
* ClothingDamage: A bullet ricochets off the hull of the ''Heart of Booty'' and tears Alana's pants through the middle. No, really.
** Of course, this depends on your view of the art, as the 'pants' are little more than stick figure legs, and art drawn by the creator of the strip in question drew Alana with a skirt.
* ContinuityReboot: Fat Fish Fury: Reboot. Naturally.
** Future Imperfect is also being restarted.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Nameless and Mechafox.
* CoolOldGuy: Nearly twenty of those, some supposedly older than the universe. Lyinginbedmon is considered to have been the first introduced.
* CoolSword
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Pretty much anybody among the many from Arcania. Actually, pretty much everybody.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Future Imperfect, the sequel to Fat Fish Fury, is a much more cynical story than its predecessor, at least for the protagonists. Everybody else lives in an {{Utopia}}.
** All-Star... just wait and see
* DeadLittleSister: Many characters in Avatar Battle Royale have lost someone dear to them, generally in their insignificant backstory.
* DualWielding: Many characters dual-wield their weapons, some up the ante by adding in some ChainsawGood and automatic targeting systems.
* DudeLooksLikeALady: Calamity.
** Nameless has boobies! has become a running gag.
* DuelToTheDeath: This happens between many, many characters. Usually they get interrupted in some bizarre fashion and HilarityEnsues.
* EarthShatteringKaboom: Explosive Apocalypse From the Sky, a spell designed just for this effect, can pretty much wipe out civilizations.
** To a lesser extent Rapture.
* EverythingsBetterWithPandas: Threeshades turns into a little panda.
* EverythingsBetterWithPenguins: Guinoids, a race of anthromorphic penguins, and Sinister Penguin, an actual penguin. The setting even has a Time Guinoid!
* FaceHeelTurn and HeelFaceTurn: Happened all the time back when the sides were less defined. Sometimes characters would even forget what side they were on.
* FallenHero: Threeshades is probably the most notable Fallen Hero, though one could argue that it was only due to her demonic possession.
* FantasyKitchenSink: Squark is an Antromorphic Penguin Time Lord Jedi Deity. We could mention more characters, but that would be overkill
* TheFaceless: Nameless breaks his face, but you see it at the start.
* {{Flanderization}}: Mechafox has become increasingly malfunctioning and insane as time goes by.
* FoeYay: Between Threeshades and Salmon/Leroy
** And a little non-canon comic with Q and Lyinginbedmon seems to suggest this.
* {{Garfunkel}}: Green-shirted Q. He and Q are an equal duo, but Q gets most of the spotlight because his wirter likes writing for him more then GSQ. This will apparently be corrected in Future Imperfect.
* GatlingGood: Randomizer has used a gatling gun several times.
* GrimReaper: Nameless.
* GovernmentConspiracy: Them. "People don't believe the truth, the truth is what people believe" indeed.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Many characters sport scars even in Fat Fish Fury, even more will in Future Imperfect.
* GrumpyBear: Many people, such as Nilmerg Eht and The Q, tend to be moody, cynical, and irritable, and almost every protagonist in Future Imperfect is.
* {{Hell}}: The setting has Baator, which some characters have visited along the course of the story.
* HeroWithBadPublicity: Ins has turned everyone against the 'heroes', if they can be called such.
* HeroAntagonist: Most of the people in the United Nations of Avbaroy could be considered LawfulGood.
* HiddenElfVillage: Sharnin.
* HoYay: Small amounts between Kpenguin and Calamity. [[RunningGag *GROPE*]]
** Huge amounts between [[HeterosexualLifePartners the two Qs]].
* HyperspaceArsenal: Apparently many characters make use of such. Mechafox has hat that functions as this, and Grim Ranger uses spell to achieve similiar effect.
* ImplacableMan: Abr has long list of implacable men and women, but to the top tier rise Randomizer and Threeshades.
* ImpossibleThief: Beren of the TSS plot is one of these. Not only has he stolen a table (and since TSS takes place on a ship, the tables are nailed to the floor), he also stole Mr. X's wallet. And Mr. X does not have a wallet.
** He ups the ante immidiately afterwards by stealing Alana's rapier and using art change as distraction, and stealing the fourth wall to reveal it to the reader
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Skimmer fights with a giant bell.
* IncendiaryExponent: ABR in general makes good use of this rule.
* IneffectualLoner: Pretty much every "good guy" in Future Imperfect is a loner to some degree. Most notably Lyinginbedmon.
* {{Jerkass}}: Our own resident Q, a PhysicalGod and without a doubt Xartyve2 whos unlikeableness is just fantastic.
* JokeItem: Some characters have used truly laughable items as weapons in long and glorious history of ABR. These include eggs, soda, sticks, stones, heads and other body parts...the list goes on.
* KilledOffForReal: Stephen Mask (eventually), among others.
* KillItWithFire: Used many, many times in ABR. Especially magnificently done in recent a TJH strip, in which the villain uses a ''flame tank''.
* KillSat: There is one right in orbit over the planet.
* LaResistance: The ALF, fighting against the [[BenevolentAlienInvasion Benevolent Alien Invaders]].
* LastOfHisKind: Everybody wanted to come from Arcania once {{Remember}} was made. Really, the trope's pretty much averted now.
* LethalLavaLand: Episode 1 of TJH takes place in such an environment, and FFF's hell equivalents are often like this.
* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: Far too many to count, as a result of the large amount of authors.
** Especially prominent in Future Imperfect, in which most people have multiple characters in case one of them dies, since in that plot, AnyoneCanDie.
* LosingYourHead: Several characters have survived decapitation with only mild annoyance, and ABR boasts an entire race with this ability.
* MeaningfulName: Mostly played for laughs, but Threeshades and some others play the trope straight on occasion.
** Grayscale is named because all comics he features in use this color tone. Although only when his author is drawing.
* {{Mooks}}: Make appearances in many, many combat scenes.
* MysteriousPast: No one seems knows anything about Sinister Penguin's history before he turned up towards the end of FFF.
** Xartyve2 traded his memories for ultimate Evocation powers.
* NoFourthWall
** Although this effect is lessened for the most part in FI.
* NighInvulnerability: Several characters, including Threeshades (unless you're Almighty Salmon). There was actually a literal 'Plot Shield' protecting the Vendetta at one point.
* {{Ninja}}: Used to a certain degree, but still not overdone.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: Bob and Nancy's underwear fight.
** Alana and Beren in TSS are seen by the crew on top of one another after she tries to retrieve her stolen rapier from him by bunny hopping into him.
* NukeEm: The Arcanian Jovocian missile technology: bringing nuclear warheads to a small nation near you.
* OffWithHisHead: Decapitation seems to be in style in ABR.
* OminousFloatingCastle: The citadel of Bis Anu. Subverted as it is not hideout of bad guys, but actually the HQ of the good guys.
* OmnicidalManiac: Vert Doom, debatably Nameless (as he is the grim reaper of the setting) and Q.
* OneLetterName: Q.
* OneWingedAngel: Threeshades has this as a standard power after a certain point in the story.
* OurSoulsAreDifferent: Souls have plenty of uses. Everything from antimatter and fuel.
* PsychoForHire: Diskord. [[spoiler:The Sadistic Crazy Spawn of Evil that was created by the left over magic of Fayte, and the evil of Threeshades.]]
* PoweredArmor: The machinists use this.
* {{Prequel}}: Everyone is making those about their character's backstory.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Igon Minoblendy (Aka Lyinginbedmon), who's history is being revealed in {{Remember}}, and many others.

* TheRevolutionWillNotBeCivilized: The [[LaResistance Avbaroy Liberation Front]] has no qualm about doing suicide bombings, indiscriminately slaughtering civilians and launching the equivalent of a nuclear missile in the central area of a densely populated metropolis.

* {{Shipping}}: Brenen and Alana of the TSS plot. And this was by strip... 8? maybe?
