9* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed. The Greek Gods were originally portrayed as JerkassGods who did what they did ForTheEvulz but here most of their stories are redone in their own voice (not from the POV of the terrified mortals) and are given added context. Many are shown to have slightly more reasonable intentions for the things they did but there still are some cases of cruelty for cruelty's sake that are this trope played straight.
10* AdaptationExpansion: The lives of the gods of Greek Myth are explored far more fully than they ever were in the Classical era with several stories going into the details and motivations behind many of the acts in Myth that had been treated casually as JerkassGods.
11* CanonForeigner: The character of Moxie is an original creation grandfathered in from the group's origins on Twitter and worked into the Greek Mythos by the writers.
12* CerebusSyndrome: The Titans Rising storyline shifted the direction of the site from a CultureClash comedy to more serious, dramatic stories.
