* [[New Neighbours As the Plot Demands]]: Partially responsible for the staggering number of enemies; earlier on, creating a new enemy group or conflict was a frequent player response to boredom.

* [[Wham Episode]]: The thirteenth chapter sees a major character's Crimson weapon severed and an allied NPC brutally killed.

* [[Wizarding School]]: Subverted. TISME may indeed teach its students magic, but The Institute for the Study of Magical Elements does just what its name implies it does.
