{{quote|Nine centuries ago, [[Gotterdammerung|the Mana Tree burned to ashes]].
The power of Mana lived on inside Mana stones, enchanted instruments, and artifacts.
Sages fought with each other for control of these last remnants of Mana.
Then, [[After the End|after hundreds of years of war]], as the power of Mana began to wane, those who sought it grew scarce, and the world returned to peace.
After that, [[And Man Grew Proud|mankind grew afraid to desire]]. Their hearts filled with empty emotions, and grew estranged from my hands. They turned their eyes away from my infinite power, and were troubled by their petty disputes.
[[Call to Adventure|Remember me]]!
Need me!
I can provide you with everything!
[[Arc Words|I am love.]]
Find me, and walk beside me. }}
 
Line 73:
* [[Fantastic Racism]]: Niccolo towards the Sproutlings.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: Talking to the [[NPC]]s give you lots of hints about what's going on, and a lot of your cactus' apparent non-sequitors only make sense in retrospect. {{spoiler|"Seventh is Girl", for example, refers to Matilda, who takes the previously vacant seat of the Seventh Wisdom after she dies.}}
* [[PowerFreudian Trio]]: The three dragons [[Cool Old Guy|Jajara]] (Superego), [[Action Girl|Vadise]] (Ego), and Akravator (Id).
* [[Frying Pan of Doom]]: Bud's weapon.
* [[Gender Blender Name]]: Larc, Alex (which is plot-relevant), and Elazul [[Dub Name Change|in Japanese]] (his original name was Ruri).
Line 97 ⟶ 98:
** Any weapons created this way can then be crafted into an [[Robot Buddy|infinity plus one Golem.]]
* [[In-Universe Game Clock]]: Time advances at the rate of one day per world traveled or entered, though you can also sleep in the Geo Inn as well.
* [[It's Up to You]]: Seriously, how does anybody get anything done in Fa'Diel without the player character?
** Hell, you even have to build the map!
* [[Item Crafting]]: You can create your own weapons (and via lots of farming and tempering, make [[Infinity+1 Sword|Infinity Plus One Swords]], Spears, Bows, or whatever your [[Weapon of Choice]] is) and build your own robot golem to aid you in battle (and using those [[Infinity+1 Sword|Infinity Plus One Swords]] as ingredients, turn it into an unstoppable death machine).
* [[Item Farming]]: All of your crafting ingredients, save for the scant few you find in treasure chests during each game cycle.
* [[It's Up to You]]: Seriously, how does anybody get anything done in Fa'Diel without the player character?
** Hell, you even have to build the map!
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Elazul emerges as a far more likable character than his earliest appearances might lead one to believe.
* [[Knight Templar]]: Lady Blackpearl.
Line 139 ⟶ 140:
*** Unless you screw up the cure so terribly that he blows up. Yeah.
* [[The Power of Rock]]: The right tune will charm the mana elementals into approaching you and drop a silver or gold elemental coin.
* [[Power Trio]]: The three dragons [[Cool Old Guy|Jajara]] (Superego), [[Action Girl|Vadise]] (Ego), and Akravator (Id).
* [[Purely Aesthetic Gender]]: All that differs whether you play a male or female character is whether your male character's [[Nice Hat]] or female character's [[Improbable Hairstyle]] is mentioned in dialogue.
* [[Random Effect Spell]]
