* [[Apocalyptic Log]]: Jaden and Kheydan find some of the last logs of the Imperial scientists in the abandoned cloning facility.
* [[Anti -Hero]]: Assailed by self-doubt and uncertainty, Jaden is solidly a [[Sliding Scale of Anti -Heroes|Type I]]. {{spoiler|Relin gradually slides into Type IV by the end.}}

* [[Arc Words]]: "There be dragons."
Line 11:
* [[Bloody Handprint]]
* [[Clone Degeneration]]: The escaped clones suffer from a horrific disease/syndrome caused by them being clones. Even the children of two clones suffer from it. The only one immune is Soldier and possibly the Iteration.
* [[Clones Are People, Too]]: In the second novel, the clones of Mara, Lumiya, Kyle Katarn and even {{spoiler|Jaden himself}} that escaped from the facility in the first novel have their own personalities that are different than their base. Most of them are completely mad and sick from some sort of disease, though.
* [[Clone Degeneration]]
* [[Cloning Gambit]]: {{spoiler|Unintentionally on the part of Jaden.}}
Line 29:
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Drev Hassin, Relin Druur}}.
* [[In Medias Res]]: The second novel opens with a scene from the last portion of the book, the majority of which is a flashback to how they got in that situation.
* [[MesMe's a Crowd]]: {{spoiler|At one point toward the end of ''Riptide'', there are three versions of Jaden Korr in the same area: the dead body of Korr himself, Soldier, and the Iteration that killed Korr.}}
* [[No Such Thing As Space Jesus]]: {{spoiler|Mother, whom the majority of the escaped clones worship, turns out to be a sentient Rakatan space station who has gone partially mad from the isolation of space. She absorbs the head of her cult amongst the clones and rampages through the station before being killed.}}
* [[Thrown Out the Airlock]]: {{spoiler|Nearly happens to Kheydan in the second book at the hands of the clones. When they state their intentions of executing him, he actually ''demands'' that they kill him this way (rather than with a lightsaber).}}
