History Webcomic / D20Pony

** The other races of pony shunned the batponies hundreds of years ago and drove their clans underground, where they became elusive and rarely-seen. For that reason, many ponies don't even know that batponies exist, and batponies are extremely distrustful of the other pony races. Part of Moonflower's quest is the goal to bring all the pony kinds back together once more.

** Drinking a completely unknown potion, for money

* JokeItem: As part of a RunningGag, the various general stores that Trailblazer encounters are always selling at least one olisbos (a sex toy). This gets taken UpToEleven when Trailblazer eventually finds a store that sells nothing ''but'' olisbos.

* MythologyGag: One of the items sold by Lacuna is a "Silicone Olisbos of Come to Life". The Come-to-Life spell was first seen in the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' episode "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E11WinterWrapUp Winter Wrap Up]]", where it was used to make inanimate objects move of their own accord. An olisbos is a sex toy, and [[PowerPerversionPotential you can figure out the rest yourself]].

* MagicAmpersand: ''Temples and Titans''.

--> '''Dawn Break:''' "Your choices are: the fearless fighter, the agile archer, the devoted druid, the wrathful warrior, the treacherous thief, the mighty monk, the wicked warlock, the wondrous wizard, and the caring cleric."

--> '''Waiter:''' "For our nondrinkers, we also serve milk, tea, and milk tea."

-->'''Whirlpool:''' '"And this time, there's three of them! That's one for each of my—"'\\
'''Dawn Break:''' "Combat has started."
* DeadpanSnarker: Furia Storm

--> '''Moonflower:''' "... I wish I was brave enough to test potions like that. Heehee!"\\
'''Furia Storm:''' "Brave is one way to put it."

* ExoticWeaponSupremacy: Tonsoria's giant pair of scissors looks rather silly at first... [[https://d20pony.equestriart.net/?page=2016-10-31#post until you see what she can do with them]].

* DeliberatelyDistressedDamsel: Sea Swirl has a blatant tentacle fetish, and will take any opportunity to get herself captured by something sufficiently betentacled. Much to the annoyance of her fellow Temples and Titans players.

* AFormYouAreComfortableWith: The siren Furia Storm adopts a pony disguise while among ponies, so that they don't freak out or try to imprison her again.

* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Non-pony, in this case, but same principle. Ponies apparently have no qualms about locking up an (apparently) innocent siren indefinitely, purely because of the species reputation as a fearsome monster.

* MermaidArcEmergence: Sea Swirl pulls off a magnificent one in [[https://d20pony.equestriart.net/?page=2018-04-02#post this strip]]

* HeroicMime: Trailblazer does talk, but we never hear her voice directly in-game; instead, the game simply summarizes what she said. However, she does write her own quest journal entries, and her voice can also be heard when she's roleplaying her own character in the Temples and Titans game.

* MadScientist: The [[https://d20pony.equestriart.net/?page=2018-04-30#post Amblerta chemist]] fits the archetype to a tee, with a lab coat, wild hair, and even an array of garishly-colored flasks behind him (although the last is justified, since he sells potions). His erratic mode of speech suggests he isn't all there, either.
* MeaningfulName: These are practically a given in Equestria, and most ponies are likely to have one. Trailblazer, for example, is adept at pathfinding, while Moonflower is a bat pony with a natural talent for herbalism.

* MightyGlacier: [[https://d20pony.equestriart.net/?page=2016-09-21#post Steadfast the Immovable]]. He is an enormous pony who prefers to sit behind his armor and an enormous shield, waiting for the right moment to strike.

* PaletteSwap: There's actually a potion called the Potion of Palette Swap, sold by the [[https://d20pony.equestriart.net/?page=2018-04-30#post Amblerta chemist]]. Presumably it simply changes the hair, coat, and eye color of the drinker temporarily.
