12 | !! Tropes common to the franchise: |
13 | |
14 | * AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Paradans tend to be green, the people of Nar are frequently blue, and Bograthians come in a whole range of sort of sickly-looking hues. And Core Magi just get ''weirder...'' |
15 | * AnachronismStew: Being that it's a fantasy world, probably justified--but why are these people from a fantastic realm eating jellybeans and quoting ''Film/ThePrincessBride?'' |
16 | %%* BigBad: Agram. |
17 | * BrainsAndBrawn: |
18 | ** Korg and Zet. To quote a LetsPlay of the GB game: "They're like WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain. In that order." |
19 | ** Zet's shortness and inferiority complex also makes him somewhat of a [[TheNapoleon Napoleon]]. |
20 | %%* BubblegloopSwamp: Bograth |
21 | * CastFromHitPoints: Both the card game and video game merge HP and MP into one resource; casting a 5-point spell or summoning a 5-point monster means 5 points less damage that you can take. But both Magi and monsters generate some energy every turn. |
22 | %%* TheCorruption: The Core. |
23 | * TheDarkSide: Shadow Magi are "normal" magi who have started using Core power. |
24 | %%* DeathMountain: Kybar's Teeth |
25 | %%* TheDragon: Morag, to Agram. |
26 | %%* DumbMuscle: Many, but Korg is the standout example. |
27 | * FungusHumongous: Underneath. The Ormagon. There's a reason a quote from this game is on that page. |
28 | * {{Hobbits}}: The Eliwan as a whole. Although they do possess magic, they are small, non-threatening, unambitious, and perpetually look like young children until they get ''really'' old. The Naroom and Weave people are the closest to the trope. |
29 | %%* JungleJapes: Paradwyn, and perhaps Bograth to an extent. |
30 | * KidHero: |
31 | ** In America, Tony Jones, a DeadpanSnarker who also has some aspects of TheSnarkKnight. |
32 | ** In Japan, this was changed into Dan, an IdiotHero with tons of fighting spirit who rarely thinks things through. |
33 | * KillItWithFire: [[ZigZaggingTrope Zig-zagged!]] While the Cald region does get a number of damaging and destructive abilities, they're ''also'' big on [[HealItWithFire healing and rejuvenating abilities]], providing the warmth of life. |
34 | * LethalLavaLand: Cald |
35 | %%* LevelInTheClouds: Arderial |
36 | %%* {{Mons}}: The Dream Creatures |
37 | %%* OurDragonsAreDifferent: The Hyren. |
38 | %%* PunctuationShaker |
39 | * SealedEvilInACan: The Shadow Geysers, and [[spoiler: Agram.]] |
40 | * SeashellBra: Many of the female Orothans wear this kind of attire. |
41 | * ShiftingSandLand: The [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin aptly-named]] Sands of d'Resh. |
42 | %%* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Nar |
43 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Evu and jellybeans. There's even a relic in the card game named "Evu's Jellybeans." |
44 | %%* UndergroundLevel: The Underneath |
45 | %%* UnderTheSea: Orothe |
