* [[Downer Ending]]: Toyed with a lot. Sometimes we get a simple [[The Bad Guy Wins]] downer; sometimes a [[Kill'Em All]] ending, where the villains go down as well; and sometimes a straight happy ending.

* [[Dragged Off to Hell]]: Inverted {{spoiler|in ''The Devotee of Evil''.}} Averted {{spoiler|in ''Xeethra'' to the surprise of the main character. It's still a [[Downer Ending]] though.}}

* [[Drives Like Crazy]]: The titular cult in his [[Future Imperfect]] satire "The Great God Awto." A postscript reveals that in the 60th Century, people drive like crazy in stratospheric rocket ships, although of course they don't do this as part of some savage religion like Awto's barbaric "Hammuriquanean" worshippers.
