7	The main roleplays of interest are ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/topic/77737/28603036/1/ Turning Colours (Tāningu-shoku)]]'' and its sequel, ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/topic/77737/37014942/1/ Twisted Colours (Tsuisuto-shoku)]]''.
8	----
9	!! Tropes present in "Turning Colours":
10	* TheAce: Bezide Ascato is infuriatingly perfect at everything, fights using a broken as hell machine, and is even stated to have been born / made that way.
11	* AffablyEvil: Crine Dela Ranefort is just a nice old man, FriendToAllLivingThings, and always polite to everyone...[[AndCallHimGeorge oh, is that hug of his hurting you?]]
12	* ArchEnemy: A number of them for various people:
13	** Alec has Mr. Aside, the devious schemer who apparently killed a large number of his GHOST unit and defeated him in the past.
14	** Charlie has Sean, due to a really badly devised gambit by Sean, basically lambasting Charlie over MyGreatestFailure.
15	** Samson has Krauser, his former superior, who was the one who "burned" him.
16	** The White Dragons to the Black Knights, until relatively recently.
17	* AxCrazy:
18	** Darker. There are more Ax Crazy characters, but tellingly, Darker's birth name is AX-L.
19	** The majority of the Huckebein Family. Emphasis on Kyrie, more entertaining and less out and out insane, Tommy, who is...not mentally well, and will strangle you for a crooked tie, and Fortin, who is WickedCultured and likes discussing the various elements of a successful slaughter.
20	* BadassFamily: The Huckebein Family might not all be related by blood, but they kick ass like nobody's business. They also have a humongous gallery of custom Knightmares for people based on temperament.
21	* BreakingTheFourthWall:
22	** More like turning the fourth wall into dust: Cade has a ''Twitter'' page, where he talks about upcoming events and gives his reaction to them.
23	** C.C had assumed Lelouch would've fainted from watching her and Anise, leaving people confused as to why she would think that. In the discussion thread Blazing elaborated that she really meant I bet ''Glass'' Has passed out by now.
24	* BerserkButton:
25	** Nero Fi Britannia has a tendency to go ape shit and murder people over the smallest things, including a person handling her luggage incorrectly or accidentally buying the wrong soap.
26	** When Bezide got blamed by Anya in FailureToSaveMurder fashion for the deaths of hundreds of civilians, things...[[SuperpoweredEvilSide got kinda scary.]]
27	** Alec seems to have a BerserkButton in people trying to take the SABRE's tech for their own. Mr. Aside tried it and ended up having to fight through a base, and he reacted with an apoplexy when Samson revealed the Fenrir.
28	* {{BFG}}: The Messiah Fortress was armed with the [[ShoutOut Sister Ray Cannon]], the BFG to end all Big Effing Guns. Called a Solar Hadron Cannon, its powered by a number of reactors, the power of all Tokyo, and the sun. Its confirmed to be strong enough to do enough damage to, with a clean shot, destroy an entire army and the area around them for miles on end. The problem is getting that clean shot. It was actually fired, showing it was a worthwhile investment, defeating the previously undefeatable Archangel warship.
29	* CombatTentacles: Yuji Mukado has these as the reason he does not have a gun. Each of them is tipped with a deadly blade, and can rip enemies limb from limb. It goes up to eleven with his Knightmare, Ballad Bird, a huge SpiderTank.
30	* CrapsaccharineWorld: Nero and Himmler's Area 11 in a nutshell. The streets are clean, there's relatively no crime and unrest, and there's integration between Japanese and Britannian systems. This however is mostly because the Lesser Clans have defected and become a part of Specialized Security, thus "integrating" Japanese citizens into oppressing other Japanese citizens. The streets? "Clean" and "Safe" because anyone who detracts from this meets [[TheBrute Robert]] [[DepravedHomosexual Arguss]] and his squad of street fighters who seem to emerge from alleyways and derelict buildings, and anyone who raises dispute about the safety or equality of the Japanese disappears [[SecretPolice late at night.]] The so called equality is only in existence because Himmler believes in a spectacularly insane race breeding scheme to create "aryans". Behind the scenes, ''life is being crushed under a jackboot.''
31	* CreateYourOwnVillain: Kyrl essentally made Gadvein Allrage,whom went on a Roaring Rampage Of Revenge and killed a hell of a lot of civilians... and Kyrl's responce to this is ammusment and Evilolz
32	* DarkActionGirl: [[spoiler: Lisa, eventually, after enough heartache makes her snap. She goes from pervy fangirl to destructive, CuteAndPsycho, and AxCrazy.]]
33	* DayOfTheJackboot: After the relatively more stable and well intentioned policies of the Triumvirate, and the Black Rebellion that put an end to their day, Nero and Henry Himmler took over Area 11, and it quickly went to this trope. While Britannia has had its share of Nazi-esque moments, Specialized Security puts those to the forefront especially as it "assists" in the governance of Japan. Those who cooperate and forsake Japan's past in favor of Nero's shows that put on its appearance and Himmler's various "Britannianization" plans get to live comfortably and with the blessings of Specialized Security. Those who don't? [[HellHolePrison They're]] [[KangarooCourt never]] [[PlayingWithSyringes heard]] [[NoBodyLeftBehind from]] [[YouDoNotWantToKnow again.]]
34	* DemotedToExtra:
35	** Suzaku suffered from this he didn't even appear in the Narita 'turn'. He got promoted to supporting character to Euphemia after the events at Shikinei Island. Although he's now back to main character status after the CF invasion.
36	** Poor Huckebein Family. [[spoiler: Though in Vian's plans, they get their old role back and then some in R1.5]]
37	* DiscontinuityNod:
38	** The Omega events with Zero even lampshading it later on and Kyrl outright stating that he only did enough to be killed for it.
39	** A small one involving the hill battle between the UNLE vs Nevina and Laag. Around the time of Anya arriving, Nevina laments how Laag died of his injuries because of her poor judgment. Where as he had originally survived from them but didn't appear again in the rp.
40	** Almost the entire outcome of the Nunnally and C.C. dream sequence that resulted in Nunnally being able to walk and see. "At least you had that week of her being able to walk alongside you, even if she doesn't remember it." ~ C.C.
41	* EliteMooks: The new Britannian machines Eriadont churned out are this. Much harder to kill, faster and more maneuverable, and they hit hard in comparison to the older models.
42	* EvenEvilHasStandards: Kryl and Declea both supported Caesar's plan to keep the war going by killing many innocent Britannians. However, when Caesar causes the destruction of Los Angeles, and the deaths of millions, they're horrified.
43	* EvilCounterpart:
44	** The White Dragons to the Black Knights. Though less so over time, as Infinity becomes more humanized.
45	** Bezide has one in Mr. Aside, who has the exact opposite world view of Bezide (HumansAreSpecial vs. PunyEarthlings) and Bezide's white and blue 0-Quantum contrasted against the gold and black Tachyon.
46	* EvilOldFolks:
47	** Crine again, but more of a WellIntentionedExtremist Old Folks. To elaborate more on what makes him bad would spoil things.
48	** This plus AxCrazy and SerialKiller is Oscar Kopfangr's nature. He acts weird and spacey, but his kill count and nature are nightmarish.
49	* FromBadToWorse: The R1.5 RP starts us off with Cornelia out, a month after the Black Rebellion's ultimate collapse. The StateSec group Specialized Security has emerged very powerful indeed, backing Nero for the Viceroy position. "At what cost" [[DayOfTheJackboot indeed.]]
50	* GambitPileup:Everyone and their ''MOTHER'' has something planned:
51	** At the start of the SAZ - Mellura, Crine, Kyrie, Declea, Mr. Aside, Charlie, the OSI, Katherine, Chrono, Gadrev, Markos, Masahide Mori, and others are now starting the more important phases of their plans, meaning things are about to get extremely complicated.
52	** Nero Fi Britannia has spent the majority of her existence in the RP forwarding her own horribly obvious plan for world domination that somehow everybody is oblivious to.
53	* GratuitousJapanese: The title is actually ''Taningu Shoku'', which translates into ''Turning Colours''.
54	* HeroicBSOD: Lelouch as Zero does this in the mental sense where, he can't think properly and stalls for about a day after countless Britannian civilians are killed by knightmares disguised as Black Knights. He gets over it with a combination of Infinity openly mocking him in a broadcast and the Crimson Phoneix's declare him their enemy... suffice to say it certainly got worse before he got better.
55	* HufflepuffHouse: Australia. They only recently started to do things, and have an air force. Even still, they haven't exactly made much of an impact.
56	* HumongousMecha: The "Tachyon" line of Knightmares. While the 2-Tachyon is slightly smaller than the 1-Tachyon, it is still well over six meters tall, making it this in comparison to the smaller Knightmares.
57	* InTheBlood: The fate of most Lpagne's, not that they even have to be a blood relative. Whether they where born with the last name, adopted(see Cade), or married into the family, ''NOBODY'' with the last name Lpagne has had a good life froim adolescence onward.
58	* ItGetsEasier: Fortin's feelings on murder. He even has a HannibalLecture planned on this subject.
59	* IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: C.C. resorted to pressing herself against Mikhalis to make him risk life and limb after already nearly being killed several times just a few hours before.
60	** In addition to using them on her subordinates, Nero Fi Britannia's breasts also serve as her infinite storage device, having produced weapons, phones, and other objects from her bountiful bosom.
61	* ILied: Third High General, Caesar Octavius is indicated to do this even in battle, but when he forms a conspiracy with Delcea and Kryl to keep the war going, he blatantly lies to them about what he's going to do. They think he's going to stage an attack on Britannian civilians in Area 11, and pin in on the Black Knights. While he pins it on the Black Knights, [[spoiler: instead of staging an attack, he backs a radical terrorist group, and has them attack Los Angeles, armed with fully functional Knightmares and advanced weapons. Two million people are slaughtered.]]
62	* KilledOffscreen: It's assumed Kyrl Wyman killed Omega by a combination of ObviousTrap and ILied.
63	* LargeHam: Gadvein Allrage has a habit of making his announcements very, very loudly. His ''robots'' are just as bad with this.
64	* LighterAndSofter: With most of the forum being slightly darker and edgier, the band Gecko Leviathan invokes ''this'' trope instead of the norm. Their problems are just as serious and important to them as anyone elses are, however they don't affect the outcome of many peoples lives, or involve killing or mind raping anyone. Most of their issues involve having not finished a song, what to do once Cade is gone, and how they sound, so there should be no angst inducing contemplation filled scenes with them.
65	* QuirkyMinibossSquad: Charlie has a number of devoted people, most of them very quirky, but all of them very capable. We have the A.o.H. (weaponized furries), Lak'Shas (weird assassin from Malaysia with a Geass-Curse-Thing), and Krollo Andri (essentially [[Anime/HellsingUltimate Schrodinger]]).
66	* {{Retcon}}: Blazing is doing a RP recap that details past events and inevitably some retcon was going to occur such as
67	** The entire Nunnally and C.C. dream/geass sequence which, was admitted to be the most annoying to change so it made any sense.
68	** Alistair’s first involvement in battle occurs a little later on rather than Saitama where, he comes of as inept. This man is suppose to be one of the highest ranked generals in Britannia.
69	** Revan or Alexander, due to later suspension of belief he gets killed off during the Tohdoh rescue.
70	** Almost all of Omega/Allen involvement, originally he manages to build a rebel faction inside Britannia’s own ranks without any hint of being discovered. It’s gets changed to him being discovered and getting the entire faction killed by Kyrl Wyman.
71	** Clovisland, now only has two major plot points Maoko joining C.C. and Nonnette being put into a coma. Rai has practically been written out of the whole thing and a lot of the ‘Neo-JLF’ are killed instead of near all surviving.
72	* RoyallyScrewedUp: Britannian Royal Family as usual. Everybody's manipulating someone else. Nero is in a category of her own.
73	* ShoutOut: Cade ''L''pagne in name and appearance to Lightening ''L''Drago from ''Metal Fight Beyblade''. For the formerly mentioned reasons dealing with his name. Appearance wise his hair, eyes, and attire (his headphones are black plus it can be logically assumed he's mostly in his Ashford boys uniform when seen.) mimic [=LDrago=]'s color scheme.
74	** The Hexannic Cannons, the Mori Group, and the Soranian Empire are all shout outs to ''VideoGame/SengokuBasara''.
75	** Mifune is a blatant shout out to ''Manga/SoulEater''.
76	* TheSociopath: Mr. Aside entirely lacks emotions, is casually cruel, enjoys ripping people to pieces with his Knightmare, and causes chaos mostly because he's got to do ''something'' while waiting for his plans to complete themselves.
77	* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Done by Lelouch when he said Sean needed to earn his stripes which, is exactly word for word what Cobra said about Sean.
78	* WhamEpisode: ''Operation Sekigahara'' [[spoiler: Charlie Havengale manages to make the whole Lesser Clan forces and some of his original now defected forces switch over to Britannia. The exact ramifications have yet to be explored, but given the scale of this divergence, they're possibly huge.]]
79	* WhatTheHellHero: While Infinity regularly calls Zero on this, its most prominent after an attack on Los Angeles that leaves ''two million'' innocent Britannians dead, and the city in complete ruin. After hearing Zero's big speech (which is more or less the same as canon), Infinity accuses him for making it all about the Japanese. He's not entirely wrong.
80	* YouTasteDelicious: C.C may think Allen is better tasting than Pizza.
81
82	!! Tropes present in "Twisted Colours":
83	* TheBerserker: Jason and Carosso, the first due to angst issues, the second because he has a massive BigBrotherInstinct thing going that is positively unhealthy.
84	* ChewingTheScenery: Gadvein, oh so much. He does not so much chew the scenery as he devours it.
85	* EvilIsOneBigHappyFamily: The Huckebein Family, a nasty paramilitary group supporting Britannia. There are a LOT of disgustingly evil people in the family, but also the much more pitiable Tommy Huckebein, who goes from AxCrazy to crying for his mommy, Kyrie Huckebein, who is the aforementioned mommy, and Daville, who is a HenPeckedHusband...to little Veylice.
86	* ManipulativeBitch: Katherine, who acts somewhat crazed by all the warfare and cries about love while piloting...in order to get close enough to put a beam-edge tonfa in the enemy's cockpit.
87	* TookALevelInBadass: Jason fights a lot better now, Katherine took a similar level, but added smarts to her profile. Just about every R1 pilot is shaping up to even further levels in R2, including some surprising ones.
88	* {{Yandere}}: Katherine. This is a woman who was willing to keep the war going strong in order to make sure Chrono is never, ever going to leave her side. [[FromBadToWorse And now she might well have a thing for Kyle...]]
