Ceville: Difference between revisions

* [[Corrupt Politician]] -- Ceville and Basilius, obviously. {{spoiler|The Council [[Not So Different|isn't any better]].}}

* [[Democracy Is Bad]] -- Understandably, Ceville has lots of beef against democracy, but the council election in Faeryanis sure does not look good.

* [[Diplomatic Impunity]] -- {{spoiler|The Good Fairy has this, and you have to wrest it off her hands.}}

* [[Enforced Plug]] -- Lilly and Ceville [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|break the fourth wall]] to deliver a plug on Realmforge Studios, for fear of having their characters replaced.

* [[Genie in a Bottle]].

* [[Good Is Dumb]] -- Lampshaded incessantly by Ceville:

* [[The Guards Must Be Crazy]] -- Ambrosius, who spends his duty-time preening and admiring himself, is the poster child of this trope. The other guards are no better: see [[Paper-Thin Disguise]] below.

* [[Guide Dang It]] -- The puzzles in the game are on the difficult side, but what drives most people to walkthroughs is actually a non-puzzle: {{spoiler|catching the hamster. Most people over-analyse the set-up, when all you have to do is to run to its cage extra fast.}}

* [[Human Popsicle]] -- {{spoiler|The chef in Act 3}}, and it's all your fault!

* [[Just Between You and Me]] -- Lampshaded by Ceville himself:

* [[Landslide Election]].

* [[Look Behind You!]] -- Particularly egregious in {{spoiler|the soccer-match puzzle}}.

* [[Obstructive Bureaucrat]] -- The pig-nosed secretary in Dwarves' Inc. Ltd.

* [[Our Dwarves Are All the Same]] -- Not exactly: the dwarves have turned managerial and have hired goblins for lowly work, and in additional to mining, they've expanded their business interest to logging and real estate. Still, some things never change:

'''Lilly''': Gold fever and beer, what else. }}

* [[Our Elves Are Different]] -- they are [[New Age Retro Hippie|hippies]] who live in a place called Woodstock, always look a bit stoned, and like all self-respecting environmentalists, they chain themselves to trees to protest against logging.

* [[Sequel Hook]] -- Watch to the end of the credits.

* [[Shout-Out]] -- Lots. The Red Demon looks almost the same as the one on the box of ''[[Dungeon Keeper]]'', and he aspires to be (what else?) a dungeon keeper. A good third of Lilly's lines are references to other games or movies: one choice bit concerns the sociopathic Ceville and a rabbit costume:

'''Ceville''': Not until your sling shot qualifies as a pistol, [[The Adventures of Sam & Max: Freelance Police|Sam]]! }}

** A few objects exist only to be collections of shout-outs, including the notice board and the collection of costumes in the Theater. Listening to all of the latter ones will cause Ceville to comment that Lilly [[Take That, Audience!|wastes far too much time on this since she knows all the references]].
