Line 19:
 
* [[Abduction Is Love]]: Palpaleos kidnaps Princess Yoyo, {{spoiler|and then they fall in love.}}
* [[Airborne Aircraft Carrier]]: Fahrenheit's main function besides being an HQ, just replace Aircraft with Dragons.
* [[All Love Is Unrequited]]: {{spoiler|Poor Byuu.}}
* [[Another Dimension]]: {{spoiler|Altair.}}
* [[Anti-Villain]]: {{spoiler|Both Sauzer and Palpaleos.}}
* [[Airborne Aircraft Carrier]]: Fahrenheit's main function besides being an HQ, just replace Aircraft with Dragons.
* [[Arbitrary Headcount Limit]]: The number of units allowed on the field is determined by how many dragons are under your control, with four humans being assigned to each dragon.
* [[Artificial Stupidity]]: Don't expect your dragons to differentiate between a switch and normal floor. Even if that switch will trigger a trapdoor that instantly kills four of your characters.
Line 40:
* [[The Grand List of Console Role Playing Game Cliches|Console RPG Cliches]]: Bahamut Lagoon is notable for [[Averted Trope|averting]] or [[Subverted Trope|subverting]] a great number of them.
* [[Cool Ship]]: An entire floating ''continent''.
* [[Did Not Get the Girl]]: See [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]] below.
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Yoyo. A good part of the game is spent attempting to rescue her from the Empire. {{spoiler|Associated tropes are subverted, though, in that she falls for her kidnapper and is actually the one of most powerful characters in the game, in terms of both story and gameplay.}}
* [[Did Not Get the Girl]]: See [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]] below.
* [[The Dragon]]: Palpaleos to Emperor Sauzer.
* [[Dragon Rider]]: Every squad of up to four characters rides a single dragon which gives them powers based on its abilities, and the ability to command that dragon in combat.
* [[Dual-Wielding]]: Byuu and Palpaleos.
* [[Element Number Five]]: Earth, Light and Dark aren't visible in your dragons' stats. Earth is the first extra element, a dragon who knows [[Fire, Ice, Lightning|Fire, Ice and Lightning]] magic can use Earth at the same level as its worst element. Then, a dragon with maxed out Earth, Healing, Poison, Strength and Defense will gain access to the Light and Dark elements. Very few monsters resist these elements, and finishing off enemies with them gives a chance to drop the best items in the game. Unfortunately, they also cost a lot of MP to cast.
* [[Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors]]

* [[The Empire]]: Granbelos. {{spoiler|Subverted in ending - Kahna itself becomes an empire from [[La Résistance]]'s work in-game, but is obviously not evil.}}
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: Subverted - Yoyo becomes the queen of Kahna after its liberation.
Line 67:
* [[The Kingdom]]: Every other nation besides the Granbelos Empire.
* [[Kleptomaniac Hero, Found Underwear]]: Byuu finds quite a number of "drawer things" - things from a drawer in the wink and nudge sense. You can also find "Princess' ???", usually in the suspicious location of Yoyo's bed. However, you can also find "Gunso's ???" by talking to him at pretty much any time...
* [[La Résistance]]: The Resistance/Orelus Liberation Army.

* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: When you liberate Cambell from [[The Empire]] 's grip, most of the people (including the queen) are displeased with you doing this. One man says that [[Anti-Villain|"If we obeyed [The Imperial Soldiers], they were actually nice guys," and another says that Palpaleos told him he'd grow up to be strong.]]
* [[Ninja]]: Assassins Sajin and Zeroshin.
* [[No Name Given]]: Zora's son. {{spoiler|Eventually revealed to be Orelus, the same name as the world. No plot relevance, though.}}
