5	!This work shows examples of:
6
7	%%* BornInTheSaddle: Combined with MyHorseIsAMotorbike for the Qazars.
8	* {{Conlang}}: Many, from Ghoulish to the Fair Toungue. Human civilizations each have their own as well.
9	* CultureChopSuey:
10	** Alkrys is like [[AncientGrome Greece and Rome]].
11	** Thung (pronounced like tongue) is like Ancient Egypt and China.
12	* {{Expy}}: Many of the [[FantasyPantheon "original" deities]] are in fact expies of other deities, created or otherwise.
13	* TheFairFolk: Fairies were once a highly advanced race of StarfishAliens living in an AdvancedAncientAcropolis. Unfortunately, they thought that gave them the right to be jerks. After an apocalypse bringing the end of the previous age, they lost their technology and the races of Hypervania forced them underground. However, every so often a fairy comes to the surface and torments others.
14	* GodIsEvil: [[TopGod Ymhalog]], the creator of the universe. It created the gods as a ServantRace, and when the original gods refused to do its bidding, it destroyed them. It's currently sleeping, but its dreams influence reality, which is why the universe is so [[CrapsackWorld crapsack]].
15	* HeavyMetalUmlaut: The Qazars are depicted as one of the most metal human cultures, and their language features heavy use of umlauts. Justified, because it represents a backness distinction.
16	* LovecraftLite: Swings between this and CosmicHorrorStory, but ultimately lands on the former.
17	* {{Mythopoeia}}: A lot of plot revolves around ancient gods and monsters, with a fleshed out history of the entire universe, not just Hypervania.
18	* PunctuationShaker: Ghouls and Qazars often have apostrophes in their names. [[{{JustifiedTrope}} Justified]], because it represents a glottal stop.
19	* ProudWarriorRace: All the races have histories of wars and violence, but none more so than the Qazars.
20	* SchizoTech: On one hand, you've got swords and horses. On the other hand, you've got lazer guns and motorcycles. What is and isn't futuristic is decided by little more than RuleOfCool.
21	* StarfishAliens: Though creatures and races from Hypervania are either Earth organisms or (somewhat) identifiable fantasy species, extraterrestrials and deities are usually [[BizarreAlienBiology quite bizarre]].
