* [[Hereditary Curse]]: Manukhs used to control Uandook "mice". Mice kings used to curse all Manukhs. This didn't end well for either side.
* [[Hope Is Scary]]: Sir Max comments on it.
* [[How Dare You Die On Me!]]: Max saves a dying man ({{spoiler|Mokhi Faa}}) in ''Bakki Bugvin's Glasses'' by pleading him not to die. Since the man was under a [[Extreme Doormat|magical compulsion to fulfill]] ''any'' requests, he healed up instantly like a champ.
* [[Human Sacrifice]]: An ingeniously insane mage invented a way to consume the forgotten Lunar Bull clan's power and connection to the moon for his purposes by finding, abducting, killing and consuming Lunar Bull clan descendants, while metaphorically feeding the hearts of his victims to an incorporeal entity known as a [[Adorable Abomination|Lunar Calf]]<ref> the Lunar Calf is actually harmless and just lonely. Trouble starts if the Calf is kept captive and fed until it matures, becoming the clan's eponymous Lunar Bull, as this will destroy the world</ref>.
* [[I Know Your True Name]]: Fayriba, the shaman of Khenkha, gives Max his True Name, which replaces the lines in his left palm. Juffin considers the True Name, grafted upon flesh in the forgotten [[Language of Magic]] a powerful defensive amulet, and tells Max that in earlier times the [[Properly Paranoid]] reaction would be to kill the shaman, thus making the True Name a secret.

* [[Uncoffee]]: Kamra.

* [[Urban Fantasy]]: Although it is set in another world, most of the series takes place and around the sprawling metropolis of Echo.
* [[Utility Magic]]: How most of the Plain Magic is used in Echo.
