 * Green tick.svg Creepy Blue Eyes

 * Cult - The distinction between a cult and a legitimate religion can vary from person to person, and we'd prefer not to get into that debate.
 * Green tick.svg Culture Justifies Anything - Too controversial.

 * Green tick.svg Dropped a Bridge on Him - We are in a universe where Anyone Can Die, so this trope is too common to note.

 * Dystopia Justifies the Means - Nobody is deliberately trying to build one.
