Line 44:
* [[Disney Villain Death]]: Xanatos jumps into acid to avoid capture.
* [[The Dragon]]: [[Bounty Hunter|Ona Nobis]] to [[Mad Scientist|Jenna Zan Arbor]]. Xanatos appears to be turning Bruck into one, but throws him away without batting an eye.
* [[Dying Asas Yourself]]: Terra in ''The Hidden Past''.
* [[The Evil Prince]]: Subverted. Taroon, in ''The Shattered Peace'' looks the part, and is a ruthless [[Chessmaster]] out to escape his status as [[The Unfavourite]] by ruining his brother's reputation, even going so far as to kidnap his brother and risk war. However, his brother, Leed, does not want the job, a fact that Taroon is ''very'' aware of, and his manipulations ultimately prove that by local standards he will be the better king.
* [[Evil Redhead]]: Jenna Zan Arbor
Line 53:
* [[Foregone Conclusion]]: A plot-arc in the middle of the series has Obi-Wan leave the Jedi Order. Since he's a member in ''[[The Phantom Menace]]'', we know he'll come back.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Xanatos has a crescent scar that stands out on one of his cheeks. He burned it in with his dead father's signet ring, and a design based on it serves as the Offworld logo.
* [[Greed]]: Xanatos and his father, Crion, both suffered from it, starting a [[War for Fun Andand Profit]] in order to enrich themselves, and Xanatos' current objective seems to be to make as much money as he can or die in the attempt. In ''The Day of Reckoning'' this trope is discussed by Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan, who can feel the greed and lust for money that has infiltrated Telos since the Katharsis gambling event was created.
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: King Frane and Prince Taroon in ''The Shattered Peace''.
* [[Hot Scientist]]: Jenna Zan Arbor would be quite attractive if she weren't a homicidal lunatic.
Line 84:
* [[The Rival]]: Bruck to Obi-Wan.
** [[Rival Turned Evil]]: Bruck Chun to Obi-Wan. He lets his rage drive him to sabotage, attempted murder, and worse, all while trusting Xanatos.
* [[Self -Disposing Villain]]: Xanatos, who commits suicide.
* [[Spiritual Successor]]: Followed by ''[[Jedi Quest]]'', which took place between ''[[The Phantom Menace]]'' and ''[[Attack of the Clones]]'' and featured similar adventures for Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker.
* [[Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale]]: There are only three tribes on the entire planet of Gala.
Line 94:
* [[Two Lines, No Waiting]]: The point-of-view swaps between Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon at regular intervals.
* [[The Unfavourite]]: Taroon in ''The Shattered Peace''.
* [[Villain Withwith Good Publicity]]: Xanatos in ''Day Of Reckoning''.
* [["Well Done, Son" Guy]]: Taroon in ''The Shattered Peace'', whose father prefers his older brother Leed to him.
* [[Whip It Good]]: Ona Nobis.
