4 | '''''[[http://iothera.com/ Iothera]]''''' is a ScienceFantasy webcomic by RMG. It is a [[TheRemake descendant]] of ''[[http://uploaded.net/file/d97kq7e8 The Midlands]]'' and ''Webcomic/{{Heliothaumic}}'', with several of the same characters. Like ''The Midlands'', it often shows characters' words and thoughts simultaneously. (Be wary when reading, as some pages are NSFW.) |

8 | !!''Iothera'' provides examples of: |
9 | * CostumePorn: From traditional Chartannian clothing to modern Kyokanese, clothes are drawn in great detail. |
10 | * CovertPervert: Maureen holds a perfectly civil conversation while thinking about sex with Cassandra. Cassandra is impressed. |
11 | * FantasyCounterpartCulture: Kyokan resembles Japan; Chartannia resembles the British Empire[[note]]it even looks like a mirrored and slightly tilted Great Britain on the world map[[/note]]; Beiguo and Nanguo resemble China. |
12 | * {{Magitek}}: Iotheran technology incorporates a lot of magic. |
13 | * NippleAndDimed: Averted. In-universe, Redwater club fashion apparently includes exposed breasts, as shown in a flashback to the night Cassandra and Maureen first met, so they apparently don't believe in this trope. (Judging from Maureen's remarks, Chartannians are more reserved.) |
14 | * {{Precursors}}: the Seb attained spaceflight, then apparently vanished. |
15 | -->'''Cassandra:''' We still don't really know who the Seb were — or how they built the Red Towers — or why they were on the moons — or even what all the stuff they left behind ''does''. |
16 | * TheRemake: ''Iothera'' is a remake of ''Webcomic/{{Heliothaumic}}'', which is a remake of ''[[http://uploaded.net/file/d97kq7e8 The Midlands]]''. |
17 | * RummageSaleReject: Takako does not “dress to please others”. |
18 | -->'''Cassandra:''' I know not wearing the entire ROYGVIB spectrum at once is anathem to you, but... |
19 | * ScienceFantasy: Astronauts, lunar colonies, and faster-than-light travel are mentioned in the same breath as elves and magic. |
