Line 18:
* [[Animorphism]]: Eva is an [[Inverted Trope]] of this – an animal who spends her time as a human. Shadow and Maria are (or were) straight examples according to their bios. The demon Narinia is either this played straight or inverted depending on your viewpoint.
* [[Anti-Hero]]: Shadow is around a [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|Type III]] – he’s openly described as a psychopath, casually kills a lot of people and acts a bit of a jerk to most of his friends, but he’s still basically a good person. Brass is a Type II – a good person who happens to be a thief and conman. MPM used to have a Type V named Legit, but he hasn’t appeared yet.
* [[Arch Enemy]]: Chip implies that former MPM member Legit was either this or [[The Rival]] to Shadow. Considering Legit’s bio lists his interests as including "''genocide''", it’s entirely possible he left the company and became Shadow’s personal [[Big Bad]].
* [[Author Avatar]]: Since the comic grew out of an RP thread, pretty-much every character is an avatar for someone somewhere. Shadow, Pieman and the occasionally-appearing Maria are the avatars of the actual creators of the webcomic, however.
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking]]: Shadow is both the leader and, by implication, the best fighter. Chip is technically the heir to the vampire throne and is shown to be more badass than any other vampire. The trope is, however, subverted in regards to Chip's [[Non-Action Guy|brother]], the Vampire King.
Line 33:
* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]: {{spoiler|The ''cat''.}}
* [[Christmas Episode]]: The comic deliberately broke schedule to release [http://mpm.thewebcomic.com/comics/1474348/195-christmas-dinner/ this] on Christmas Day 2011.
* [[ColourColor-Coded for Your Convenience]]: Every main character is associated with a different colour (respectively, {{color|indigo| Shadow}}, {{color|darkred| Chip}}, {{color|orange| Pieman}}, {{color|chocolate| Brass}}, {{color|purple| Squiggle}}, {{color|violet| Eva}}, {{color|green| Nari}}, {{color|darkorange| Red Tail the Fluffy}}, white-on-black for the demon, {{color|red| Someone named Pandora}}, {{color|grey| everyone else}}) which tends to feature highly in their wardrobe and in which all their speech is rendered (making it easier to work out who's talking off-panel).
* [[Creepy Doll]]: Former MPM member Legit was a living one of these.
* [[Cute Little Fang]]: Chip has at least one, probably two. It’s hard to tell from the art style.
