[http://www.exiern.com/ Exiern] is a fantasy webcomic written by Drowemos (despite the obvious connections to [[Drow Tales|dark elves]] and [[Emo|whiny teenagers]], it's actually [[Sdrawkcab Name|"some word" spelled backwards]]) and illustrated initially by Drowemos (2005), then by Studio Boom (2005 - 2010) and currently by Shipeng Lee of [[Drow Tales]] (2010
The plot, which began as a riff off of [http://www.thewotch.com/?epDate=2003-05-14 an early storyline of] ''[[The Wotch]]'', is relatively simple: a hulking barbarian is fighting against an evil wizard. About to fall by the hero's sword, the wizard tries to use his dying breath to transform him into an animal, but somehow makes him [[Gender Bender|a woman]] instead. [[First Law of Gender Bending|Since it can't be undone]], the barbarian, now going by the name of Tiffany, goes on a variety of adventures.

* [[Abomination Accusation Attack]]: Tiffany despises Teresa, among other things because Teresa is happy with having been magically turned into a woman. In one very public argument, with the population of Teresa's home city as audience, Tiffany talks as if it was a fact and common knowledge that Teresa is a [[Pedophile Priest]] child-molester.

Part of the reward for rescuing Peonie was '''''[[Exact Words|A]]''''' Royal Hand in marriage and since [[Gender Bender|she]] no longer qualifies for Peonie's and has [http://www.exiern.com/?p=979 insisted] on the ''full'' reward...[[Memetic Mutation|Its good to be the king]].
Line 92 ⟶ 91:
* [[Magic Music]]: many of the magic users in Exiern are spellsingers, which is [[Exactly What It Says On the Tin]]. {{spoiler|Female spellsingers, due to the extreme misogyny of the local priesthood, are usually silenced. King Urtica is not a fan of this policy, though he seems to lack the power to end it completely.}}
* [[Man, I Feel Like a Woman]]: Referenced but subverted in [http://www.exiern.com/?p=48 this comic], when Tiffany looks down at her new equipment and says, "You know, this really should turn me on."
* [[The Mind Is a Plaything of The Body]]: Subverted. After Tiffany appears to be succumbing to this trope, it's revealed that she's been subjected to a magical spell intended to
* [[Missing Mom]]: Princess Peonie's mother has [http://www.exiern.com/?p=1830 significant pause] disappeared. It's one of the reasons King Urtica wants to wed Tiffany as she makes an excellent replacement mother figure for Peonie.
* [[Moody Mount]]: The Unicorn. Especially when it comes to Peonie.
