Tropes present in this game (see also the main ''Final Fantasy XII'' page) include:
----
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Kytes, Filo, and Tomaj were originally bit part [[NPC|NPCs]] in [[Final Fantasy XII]], while Revenant Wings promotes them to playable and/or supporting characters.
** [[Out of Focus]]: Conversely, Ashe and Basche are nowhere to be seen {{spoiler|untill near the end, where they unexpectedly join your party}}.
* [[Adam Smith Hates Your Guts]]: Tomaj creates the Sky Saloon on the [[Global Airship|Galbana]] around a third of the way through the game; it is justified, however - the weapons/material shops are the only way he has to make money, which he uses to buy more weapons and materials.
** And even then, he's taking a loss. Chatting with one of the NPCs in the Sky Saloon reveals this, and that evidently the stuff he's selling/[[Item Crafting|you're making]] would make the people at Draklor Labratory jealous.
* [[Apathetic Citizens]]: The Aegyl on board the Galbana when the Sky Saloon is opened. The Sky Pirates who joined fall under this, too. {{spoiler|They get better after Chapter 8-2. They don't try to help, though.}}
* [[Artificial Stupidity]]: Don't expect your allies to show initiative, move forward with everyone else, or use their abilities with any intelligence. Don't expect [[Squishy Wizard]]/[[White Mage]] Penelo to take the initiative on healing when you're actually in combat or avoid charging into melee. Do expect her to just stand there staring into space when you try to withdraw her from melee, rather than running as quickly as possible, then watching the boss fight become unwinnable because your healer died.
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Kytes, Filo, Tomaj and Ba' Gamnan and his group.
* [[Ax Crazy]]: A lot of the Aegyl become this after {{spoiler|Velis releases their anima.}}
* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: Penelo
Line 32 ⟶ 29:
* [[Goldfish Poop Gang]]: Rinok, Bwagi and Gijuk, later joined by Ba'Gamnan.
* [[Green Rocks]]: Auracite.
* [[Graphics Induced Super Deformed]]: Style recycled from [[Final Fantasy Tactics Advance (Video Game)|Final Fantasy Tactics Advance]] and [[Final Fantasy Tactics a 2 (Video Game)|Final Fantasy Tactics a 2A2]].
* [[Heroic Resolve]]: This is how Vaan (and presumably, the rest of the party) {{spoiler|prevent the auracite from draining their anima.}}
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Llyud}}.
Line 41 ⟶ 38:
** Hinted quite strongly that Balthier and Fran are (or have been) an item. When Tomaj tries to woo Fran, she tells him Balthier's methods of wooing her were quite different.
* [[Item Crafting]]: This is Cu Sith's entire role. It's essential to obtain the best equipment for everyone who isn't Vaan.
* [[Jumped At the Call]]: Vaan, Kytes and Filo do this when the Galbana crashes just outside Rabanastre.
* [[Kid Sidekick]]: Filo and Kytes.
* [[Kid Withwith the Leash]]: Anyone who uses Yarhi/Espers becomes this, as roaming Yarhi/Espers wander around, attacking randomly.
** Also Tomaj when he hooks Ba'Gamnan up to a device that allows him to be manipulated with a remote control.
* [[Lethal Lava Land]]: Roda Volcano/{{spoiler|The Feol Warren.}}
Line 66 ⟶ 63:
* [[The Man Behind the Man]]: {{spoiler|Feolthanos was behind the Judge of Wings.}}
* [[The Very Definitely Final Dungeon]]: If a {{spoiler|gigantic temple floating in outer space}} doesn't give you that impression, few other things will. Bonus points for being the first view of {{spoiler|space}} in an Ivalice series game and having a kickass view to the {{spoiler|planet below}}.
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]]: Vaan, {{spoiler|even gets a god blade forged from Odin's soul and goes a few rounds one on one with arguabely Ivalice's Most powerful being. He loses obviousily but got to give him points for trying.}}
* [[Vapor Wear]]: Penelo, whose new outfit does not seem to involve underwear at all.
* [[Victorious Childhood Friend]]: It finally shows Vaan and Penelo kissing each other... in the secret ending.
