Dragon Keeper Chronicles: Difference between revisions

* [[Always Chaotic Evil]] - The lower races all first appear to be this, but as the series goes on we see more and more sympathetic characters from these races. It's actually discussed several times, particularly in reference to a Bisonbeck who is working with the good guys.

* {{spoiler|[[Babies Ever After]]}}

* [[Call a Rabbit A Smeerp]]: A bizarre variation involving fantasy creatures. See [[Five Races]] below. Also, Grawligs are clearly ogres, with a hint of troll. Oh, and [[God]] is called Wulder and [[Satan]] is called Pretender.

* [[Complete Monster]]: Risto. Burner Stox. Crim Cropper. Pretender, obviously.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: most dragons, especially Greer.

* [[Earn Your Happy Ending]]

* [[Eccentric Mentor]]: Fenworth

** [[The Hero]]: General Lee Ark/Leetu Bends

** [[The Lancer]]: Dar

* [[Gentle Giant]]: Bruntstetter. And pretty-much every other urohm.

* [[Halfbreed]]: The Grawl.

* [[High Octane Nightmare Fuel]]

* [[Humans By Any Other Name]]: There are only two noticeable differences between humans and o'rants - the {{spoiler|gestation period}} and the fact o'rant sweat smells of citrus.

** Actually, doneels and emerlindians have an adolescence of 100 years, compared with 18-20 for o'rants, mariones etc.

* [[Mad Scientist]]: Crim Cropper

* [[Mary Suetopia]]

** Not quite, a big theme in the books is the lack of faith that is slowly crippling the kingdom (country? continent? peninsula? This troper isn't sure.)

* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Several characters are missing one or both parents (Kale, Bardon, Toopka), or have been estranged from them(Beal). A large chunk of the series is actually spent dealing with all of the various emotional issues and other things that arise because of this.

* [[Plucky Comic Relief]]: Dar starts off this way. Also Toopka. In fact, Doneels in general.

* [[The Reveal]]: {{spoiler|Toopka is much older than she seems; she's been aged down.}}

* [[Shipper On Deck]]: Toopka
