Line 10:
* [[Aerith and Bob]]: Played backwards. Jack, Mike, Daniel and...Freya?
* [[Anachronism Stew]]: Galactic colonization, Faster Than Light Travel, Cloning, Genetic Engineering, Advanced medical science, Sunlight bombs all sit side by side with an early 21st century tech level that has a [[Used Future]] feel, and propaganda in the style of the 1940's and 1950's
* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Played straight in the main RP and averted in the backstory. The Harbingers were originally manic depressives, but after so many deaths, they literally laugh at the idea of Death.
* [[Back From the Dead]]: Just because a Harbinger dies doesn't mean they stay dead. See [[Death Is Cheap]].
* [[Badass]]: The Harbingers abilities let them be this in epic proportions.
Line 37:
* [[Deader Than Dead]]: Harbingers die. Sometimes in gruesome and amazing ways such that [[No One Could Survive That]]. Too bad they always come back.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: Literally. The Harbinger's are cloned into a new body after every death. The only draw back is they remember every death and the brief void afterwards.
* [[Earth -That -Was]]: Earth was a depleted, barren Memorial to the human race by the time the Shadow invaded. It's now a case of Earth That was, Was.
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: The Shadow are a minor example of these. They may not drive you insane, but they are sufficiently alien and [[Brown Note]] inducing.
* [[Elevator Escape]]: Used by the Harbingers when the power goes out and they're trapped several dozen floors up from where they need to be.
Line 52:
* [[Lawful Evil]]: The Assembly plays this straight
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: The Harbingers are media icons. [[Slash Fic]] has been written about them. Cue massive Lampshade hang
* [[Let's Split Up, Gang!]]: It's bound to happen again sometime, even if only for a short while.
* [[Mind Rape]]: Mentioned directly. Apparently, looking at a Heart of Darkness and noticing that it stretches in an infinite number of impossible directions and looks impossibly small at the same time can drive people insane.
* [[Mission Briefing]]: Provided by the perpetually pissed Director.
