6	----
7	!! The original version of the fanfic contains examples of:
8	* AssholeVictim: The Imperial army were planning to use the Gate to invade another world so they can loot and take slaves. They instead opened a portal to Hell and got slaughtered by demons.
9	* BreakTheHaughty: Rory cockily boasts to Ankoriss that he has no way of winning against her. But immediately afterwards Ankoriss demonstrates his inhuman powers by [[NeckLift neck choking]] her, informing her that he had fought ''and'' killed other Apostles prior to meeting her, and giving her a brutal NoHoldsBarredBeatdown until [[spoiler:killing her off for real]].
10	* CurbStompBattle: The Doom Slayer come across a ramshackle fortress occupied by bandits and slavers, and, enraged, slaughters all of its occupants without even bothering to waste his guns on practically [[PunyEarthlings weak mortals]].
11	* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:Rory and Lelei]].
12	* DeathOfAChild: The Doom Slayer is [[BerserkButton pissed]] to find the bodies of two elf children with their throats torn out from the demons' massacre on Tuka's village.
13	* DevelopingDoomedCharacters: At least two Imperial characters introduced in the first chapter.
14	** Tirus [[MyGirlBackHome Has a girl waiting back home]] that he wants to marry rather than wanting to fight in wars. He gets his wish by abandoning the army once the demons attack, [[YankTheDogsChain but only to be killed off by bandits/slavers, who captured his bride-to-be]].
15	** Oros has a daughter waiting back home and he gets stomp to death by a Baron of Hell.
16	* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: The flame dragon is swarmed to death by demons and its corpse is used by Ankoriss for as of yet unspecific ritual.
17	* DoomedHometown:
18	** Tuka's village is massacred by demons, and the elves are either turned into zombies or used as building material for the Gore Nest.
19	** Coda Village also gets ravaged by demons as the villagers were too slow to evacuate despite being repeatedly warned by survivors from the demons' attacks days earlier. Lelei appears to be the only named survivor as she was outside the village.
20	* EscortMission: The Doom Slayer winds up in picking up Tuka after coming across her doomed village. He finds watching over her a hindrance in his eternal crusade against the demons. By the time he meets Rory, he promptly dumps Tuka in the Apostle's care.
21	* EvilCounterpart: Ankoriss is this to the Doom Slayer.
22	* EvilVersusEvil: The bandit army, made up from the deserters from Alnus Hill, and demons fighting each other over their attempt to overrun Italica. Unsurprisingly it is the demons who ends up winning.
23	* FryingPanOfDoom: The Doom Slayer kills a bandit with a heated up frying pan. First by [[FacialHorror roasting the sorry bastard's face off]] and then using it to splattering his brains.
24	* GiantFootOfStomping: Imperial soldier Oros gets stomped to death by a Baron of Hell.
25	* GrievousHarmWithABody: The Doom Slayer ripped [[OffWithHisHead a bandit's head off]] (along with its spinal cord) not unlike how [[VideoGame/GodOfWarIII Kratos dealt with Helios]], and using it as an improvised flail to flog another bandit to death.
26	* HarmfulToMinors: Pina and her Rose Knights come across a village that suffered a demon attack, where several children are seen sitting next to freshly dug up graves of their dead parents. Some are too traumatized to talk, including one child who lost his entire family except his grandfather.
27	* HellOnEarth: The premise of this story is essentially Falmart taking the place of Earth in ''Doom II''.
28	* HumansAreTheRealMonsters: The Doom Slayer views any evil humans (bandits, rapists, slavers, etc.) no different from demons and thus giving him just cause to kill them in the most brutal way possible.

31	** After Tirus fled from Alnus Hill, his fate is found out by the Doom Slayer from Tirus' lover who sadly confirmed that he had been killed off by bandits.
32	** Cato is not found alive when the demons attacked Coda. Lelei only last saw him going to the village to get supplies just as the demons attacked.
33	* LanguageBarrier: The Doom Slayer doesn't understand the Falmart language and has to rely on VEGA making the translations. At the moment VEGA is slowly translating the language bits.
34	* MoodWhiplash: After seven chapters of carnage and deaths, the Doom Slayer gets fed up with the Rose Knights trying to convince him to fight for the Empire and react by (non-fatally) whipping silly to the Rose Knights [[DontMakeMeTakeMyBeltOff like a father to a spoiled child]].
35	* NeckLift: Ankoriss neck-lift Rory to tell to her face that [[spoiler:all her gods are dead]] before slamming her skull into the ground.
36	* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: The Doom Slayer gives one to the FatBastard bandit chieftain by breaking his limbs and fingers, drowning him in a latrine, rip his ear off, gagging him with a dirty sock, and dumping him in a mass grave.
37	* NoSocialSkills: Along with being a [[HeroicMime complete mute]], the Doom Slayer is not used to socializing with other people and he doesn't want to because all he cares about is killing demons.
38	* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler:Ankoriss had fought and killed other Apostles prior to meeting Rory.]]
39	* PowerfulAndHelpless: Being in an unknown world and getting too focus on chasing demons without a thought, the Doom Slayer finds himself lost in Falmart. Furthermore, he couldn't be everywhere at once to stop the demons from massacring the next random village.
40	* RunningGag: Whenever the Doom Slayer punches someone's head off it will always be written "knocking his <space> '''Fucking''' <space> head off."
41	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
42	** Lowly Imperial soldier Tirus, who was initially part of the Empire's aborted invasion to Hell, quickly drop his shield and ran for his life the moment the soldier next to him gets melted by an Imp's energy blast.
43	** When Ankoriss attacked Italica [[spoiler:and killed Rory]], several soldiers broke ranks and fled but only to be killed off by Ankoriss.

48	* WhatTheHellHero: An elderly villager vent his anger on Pina over the Empire for doing a poor job on warning and protecting their subjects from the demon invasion that had cost the lives of his son and two grandchildren. Specifically on how the Empire doesn't even bother to provide horses to messengers to quickly warn the villages about the demons.
49	* TheWorfEffect: [[spoiler:Apostles like Rory meets their match against Hell's champion Ankoriss. Ankoriss noted that he found out the hard way that Apostles can't be killed (technically), but he can take away their strength by eating their hearts and they would then be exorcised from reality.]]
50	* ZombieApocalypse: With so many Falmarters massacred by demons, the ranks of the undead rises and flooded the countryside. The Doom Slayer eventually finds a field filled with the undead and proceed to mow them down.
