Line 98:
* [[I Was Quite a Looker]]: Grammy Brunhildagarde
* [[Infant Immortality]]: Dr. Diggers tried his best to disarm the werewolf leader, but in the end the only werecheetah left to save was baby Britanny.
* [[Innocent Innuendo]]: Julia Diggers' longtime friend Karia is referred to as the "Queen of Oblivious Innuendo," because she '''never does''' figure out that the phrasing she uses when talking about their sparring often sounds like she's describing lesbian sex.
* [[Ki Attacks]]: Several of the martial artists, especially the ninjas, and Ryan Tabbot.
* [[Killer Rabbit]] —er, Wabbit.
Line 105 ⟶ 106:
* [[Leeroy Jenkins]]: [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Team Noob]], ridiculously over-armed leprechauns with no idea where they are, what they are doing, what their mission is, how to operate their equipment, or how to not blow themselves up in 5 seconds, but using binoculars and bazookas backwards hasn't slowed down their enthusiasm yet. The ''GD Tangent'' [[Web Comic]] has a similar setup as the [[Trope Namer]], with a [[Shout-Out]] as well.
* [[Leprechaun|Leprechauns]]: <small>WITH TANKS AND [[Mobile Suit Human|MECHA]]!!</small>
* [[Load-Bearing Boss]]: Invoked after Julia's fight with Serpentus, {{spoiler|
* [[Lions and Tigers and Humans, Oh My!]]: Mostly whenever the story takes place on Jade, as many anthropomorphic characters co-exist with other humans or humanoid species in that dimension. On Earth, they usually work under a [[The Masquerade|masquerade]], save for a few special places around the globe.
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: …and loads. There's a tie-in comic with one-to-three page write-ups on the characters that have appeared in the series. There have been ''23'' issues published so far (though only the first 17 are on the characters; the rest focus on locations). The first 17 issues of this Guide to the GD Universe have now been collected into [[Doorstopper|a two-inch-thick tome]].
Line 157 ⟶ 158:
* [[Super Mode]]: Britanny's "Tempest Mode".
* [[Super Team]]: Agency Zero, a [[Justice League of America|JLA]]-styled team that shifted to [[The Men in Black]] paradigm, hoping that keeping up a [[The Masquerade|masquerade]] about their activities would keep [[Super Villain|SuperVillains]] from having a focus to fight against.
* [[Taking You With Me]]: One were-tiger character got the nickname "Were-Lemming" because as a [[Cute Bruiser|"puny little" cub]], her favored technique for [[We Help the Helpless|intervening against]] [[Bully Hunter|the biggest bullies]] was to grab them and:
{{quote|...those fights always ended with Xercie pulling her victim into a water well, onto the street as a passing cart wheeled by, or off a ''steep cliff''! Being were-cubs equipped with magical regeneration auras meant those "accidents" were never fatal, but man, did they ''hurt''! Still, Xercie always walked away first ... and with a grin.... After a while, bullies stopped picking on the weaker kids. No one wanted to tangle with the "Were-Lemming"!}}
* [[Tempting Fate]]: '''''Invoked!''''' Brianna was a tad too bored. [[Be Careful What You Wish For]].
* [[Terrible Trio]]: Multiple cases; Erwin "Pee Wee" Talon actually has two sets on his payroll. They're each other's [[Psycho Rangers]].
* [[Thanatos Gambit]]: Gothwrain
* [[Time Skip]]: Between issues #100 and #101 of the color series.
* [[Time Travel]]: Recurs throughout the series.
* [[Tiny Guy, Huge Girl]]:
* [[Troperrific]]: One can argue that all of ''Gold Digger'' is Fred Perry's parody/homage to comics, novels, RPGs, video games, tropes, cliches and genres of all stripes.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Britanny loves tuna. Charlotte the harpy, meanwhile, is obsessed with peanuts and pretzels; if enough are available, she'll [[Big Eater|stuff her face]] almost to the point of killing herself.
