'''''Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan''''': In a version of late 10th/early 11th-century Europe, a band of thieves have adventures involving wizards, witches, tyrants, faeries and mythical creatures of every description. Oh, and there's quite a bit of nudity as well. The world these characters inhabit is an astonishingly colorful, vibrant and varied one. It's a far cry from the rather drab view of medieval life that's sometimes depicted in fantasy.

!!''Rogues of Clwyd-Rhan'' provides examples of the following tropes:

* ColdIron: Iron hurts Fair Folks. [[spoiler:Including Kel, who's half-elven, but only after she travels to the Lands of Gnome. She later uses an iron necklace to keep her elven powers under control.]]
* CursedWithAwesome: The Corby clan are "cursed" with the ability to turn into birds. Voluntarily. With absolutely no restrictions or drawbacks involved. The "curse" is broken when another character points out that they can just ''stop doing it''.
* FacePalm: The Sheriff [[http://rocr.net/index.php?p=20091207 has good reason to facepalm.]]
* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Kel doesn't care much about being naked, unless she's somehow the center of attention. Otherwise, she can just forget that she's nude and other characters have to remind her.
* HalfHumanHybrid: [[spoiler:Kel is half-elven. In this world, "Elf" more accuratly describe TheFairFolk. She has a half-sister who's a full fairy, wings and all.]]
* HotWitch: Kel and Krakatoa; also [[spoiler:Atra after her rejuvenation, although she usually hides her young appearance]]. Of course, they're all good witches, as long as you don't tick them off.
* RaisedByWolves: The other rogues ponder this about Kel. The fact she climb trees easily make them conclude she was rather Raised by Squirrels.
* {{Textplosion}}: Some strips use wordless strips with text boxes rather than regular comic format. This was a short experiment by the author to go for a more "bookish" look. He decided he didn't like it, so most are in a more traditional comic format.
