Line 57:
* [[Bald Women]]: The succubi. Also [[Horny Devil|Horny Devils]].
* [[The Baroness]]: The Mistress is definitely a Sexpot, but depending on who you are (i.e. a [[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?|very straight]] guy), her intentions might be nasty, placing her under the Rosa Klebb variety.
* [[Battle Trophy]]: Craft Berserker [http://oglaf.com/indoorfun/ gives advice] (SFW)
* [[Bed Trick]]: Planned [http://www.oglaf.com/cornwalling/ here], but then rejected in favor of [[Gender Bender|more practical]] alternative. Also attempted here but there is a change in plans [http://www.oglaf.com/homecoming/1/]].
* [[The Berserker]]: Suffers cruel discrimination [http://www.oglaf.com/pinkhaze/ here].
* [[Best Her to Bed Her]]: [[Red Sonja]] goes too far [http://oglaf.com/savage-sleep/ here] (SFW except [[Chainmail Bikini|Red Sonja]])
* [[Beware the Silly Ones]]: Just when you begin to think Mistress rules through nothing more than sexual deviance, odd devices, and a lot of willing retainers, [http://www.oglaf.com/undercroft/1/ this] happens..
* [[Biggus Dickus]]: Subverted [http://www.oglaf.com/heterogeneous/ here]. The fair maiden in question seems relieved rather than disappointed.
Line 83 ⟶ 85:
* [[Call Back]]: The portrait being painted [http://oglaf.com/portrait/1/ here] later shows up in the room of tributes [http://oglaf.com/shaft/2/ here], flying skulls, severed cocks and all.
* [[Can't Have Sex Ever]]: Ivan [http://www.oglaf.com/cumsprite/5/ isn't even allowed to masturbate], lest he gets in trouble. He did [http://www.oglaf.com/100-eyes/2/ find a way around it], though.
* [[Captain Ahab Syndrome]]: Parodied [http://oglaf.com/ahoy/ here] (SFW). Also, lesbian pirate captain [http://oglaf.com/hornpipe/]
* [[Cat Fight]]: When Vanka meets Greir. Humorously, they both agree to skip the boring part at the beginning and go [[Girl-On-Girl Is Hot|straight to the sex]].
* [[Caught with Your Pants Down]]: [http://oglaf.com/stamen/1/ Not that Sticklebark actually wears pants].
* [[Cerebus Syndrome]]: ''Oglaf'' has always had re-occurring characters and some gags built on top of previous ones, but as time has gone by the strips involving Ivan in particular have shifted into gradually longer multi-week arcs, which put him in ever more dire situations. Often still funny, but also part of longer and more serious stories.
* [[Chain Letter]]: The spirit [http://oglaf.com/penpals/ is being a jerk again]. (SFW)
* [[The Chosen One]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/suddenly/ Oglaf, the shepherd boy]. Pity he can't read.
* [[Christmas Episode]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/saturnalia/ Saturnalia, actually].
Line 108 ⟶ 112:
** [http://www.oglaf.com/chasm/ This guy] (not porn).
** Vanka, who even booby-traps {{spoiler|her own vagina}}.
* [[Crying Wolf]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/wolf/ The wolf got him] (not porn). This is also the current page image. Also [http://oglaf.com/justso/ that guy].
* [[Cute Little Fangs]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/nightfall/ Navaan]. [http://www.oglaf.com/potion-girlfriend/4/ Her friends] also have them, though "cute" may be stretching it a bit when paired with [[Slasher Smile|Slasher Smiles]]s...
* [[The Cutie]]: The Snow Queen. Especially [http://www.oglaf.com/justice/1/ here] (warning: page is SFW)
* [[A Date with Rosie Palms]]: Ivan the Apprentice, constantly, even though for the longest time he was forbidden even this. He managed to find a way to beat the system though. ''Oglaf'' may be the only thing that's not ''[[American Pie]]'' that managed to turn it into an important recurring plot point.
Line 125 ⟶ 129:
* [[Dope Slap]]: [http://oglaf.com/swordmaster/1/ The Sword Master]. [[Alt Text|"He's also a bit of a slapmaster"]] (Sex is mentioned but not seen)
* [[Double Standard Rape (Female on Male)]]: Well, most of the characters seem to think so. Of course, most of the characters are horrible people by any standards.
* [[Dream Within a Dream]]: [http://oglaf.com/ladder/ Ladder]
* [[Dungeon Bypass]]: [http://oglaf.com/failsafe/1/ Nobody expects the labyrinth's guardian to escape.] (safe for work)
* [[Ear Worm]]: In-universe example: [http://www.oglaf.com/lute/ Lute] (warning: safe for work).
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]:
** [http://oglaf.com/blanket/1/ It's only a nameless horror until you name it] (SFW).
* [[Emotion Eater]]: It feeds on your fear [http://oglaf.com/withsympathy/] (SFW)
* [[Enfant Terrible]]: That is one badass [http://oglaf.com/son-of-kronar/2/ baby] (SFW).
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: The Mistress is known only by her title. Ivan is generally referred to as "apprentice," and Sandoval is usually just called "the Xoan Ambassador".
* [[Everything Is Trying to Kill You]]: "[http://oglaf.com/howtheygetyou/ This just proves me right!]"
* [[Everything's Worse with Bears]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/northerner/ Here], [http://oglaf.com/frog-3/1/ here] and [http://www.oglaf.com/ulric/ here] (the first two are SFW).
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: Subverted like crazy.
Line 145 ⟶ 152:
* [[Eyepatch of Power]]: Vanka's scarf.
* [[Eyes Always Shut]]: Mistress, but not always.
* [[Failsafe Failure]]: [http://oglaf.com/failsafe/ Here we go again.]
* [["Falling in Love" Montage]]: Anyone under the influence of the "Potion of Girlfriend" has one of these with a fetching redhead named Felicia.
* [[A Fate Worse Than Death]]: Mistress is fond of coming up with these - at least when [http://www.oglaf.com/capital/2/ her laser-falcon doesn't ruin them].
Line 150 ⟶ 158:
* [[Fisher King]]: The Snow Queen, as satisfying her seems to bring about the start of spring.
* [[Flock of Wolves]]: Shapeshifters assassinate the king... [[Right Hand Versus Left Hand|who had been replaced by a shapeshifter]] of the same race, that one guy believes he knew.
* [[Fountain of Youth]]: Played with in the strips dedicated to Ponce de Leon's search for said fountain with his dowdy assistant.
* [[Fountain of Youth]]:
** Played with in the strips dedicated to Ponce de Leon's search for said fountain with his dowdy assistant. They eventually do find a magical fountain, only to realize too late it's actually {{spoiler|[http://www.oglaf.com/fountain-of-girl/1/ the Fountain of Girl] (mild nudity). Well, at least they were young that way too..}}.
** There might also be a [http://www.oglaf.com/fountain-of-doubt/ Fountain of Doubt] (SFW), though they're not sure.
** Played with in the strips dedicated to Ponce de Leon's search for said fountain with his dowdy assistant. They eventually do find a magical fountain, only to realize too late it's actually {{spoiler|[http://www.oglaf.com/fountain-of-girl/1/ the Fountain of Girl] (mild nudity). Well, at least they were young that way too..}}.
** Then there's the [http://www.oglaf.com/fountain-of-death/ Fountain Of Death]... er, I mean, [[Suspiciously Specific Denial|Fountain Of Water So Delicious, Even Dead People Want It]] (also safe).
* [[Gag Boobs]]: Played straight mostly, but strangely not with [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]] Mistress.
Line 163 ⟶ 171:
* [[Gladiator Games]]: [http://oglaf.com/sport/ Played with.]
* [[God Guise]]: {{spoiler|The malevolent god worshipped by the fools' cult}} is an ''inversion''; a real god disguised as a fake god according to one of its followers. It ''looks'' like a bunch of people in a lousy costume when it's actually a very real and very dangerous deity. {{spoiler|An immortal warrior found this out the hard way and lost her sword and everything below her neck for her troubles.}}
* [[God Is Evil]]: The cult of [http://oglaf.com/sithrak/ Sithrak] [http://oglaf.com/geewoks/] [http://oglaf.com/outreach/] (SFW) {{spoiler|Actually, he's merely moody.}} [http://oglaf.com/outreach/2/] ...but never mind that. [http://oglaf.com/tracts/], [http://oglaf.com/apocrypha/] (also SFW, though the follow-up isn't)
* [[Groin Attack]]: The [http://www.oglaf.com/cockbats/ Giant Cockbats], though not in the traditional fashion.
* [[He-Man Woman Hater]]:
Line 191 ⟶ 200:
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: Kronar's [http://www.oglaf.com/son-of-kronar/2/ "son"].
* [[Logic Bomb]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/cavalcade/ A simple one], but then the dwarves aren't the most sophisticated creatures around.
** [http://oglaf.com/evensong/ Only needs a reset].
* [[Love Letter Lunacy]]: The Apprentice [http://oglaf.com/secret-admirer/1/ here] started receiving odd love letters from anonymous sources, who in some cases weren't even sure of his gender. The notes quickly got [http://oglaf.com/secret-admirer/2/ rather more ridiculous].
* [[Love Potion]]:
Line 201 ⟶ 211:
* [[Mars Needs Women]]: Subverted, [http://oglaf.com/human-women/ here.] {{spoiler|They appear to not know what a human woman really is.}}(Male nudity, probably not safe for work).
* [[Matriarchy]]: Of the Sexy variety.
* [[Medieval Morons]]: The more you see it. and especially the tribute Mistress receives...
* [[Memetic Sex God]] : The protagonist of [http://oglaf.com/prowess/1/ this] strip becomes one In-Universe, thanks to a magic amulet.
* [[Mind Control]]: Probably more examples in the archives, but in [http://oglaf.com/frog2/ Frog 2], a woman is "cursed to be a slut" by a witch. A very forward thinking witch, it seems -- when the traditional kiss-to-cure trick is tried by [[Les Yay|a local maiden]], it turns out its a case of [[Viral Transformation]], too.
Line 212 ⟶ 223:
* [[Nipple-and-Dimed]]: Mistress's skimpy costumes usually cover at least two important areas... though sometimes they don't even manage that.
* [[Non-Mammal Mammaries]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/snakeskin/ "Heh. Snake tits."]
* [[Not My Fault]]: [http://oglaf.com/legacy/ Thank you, Dark Marauder]!
* [[Not Safe for Work|NSFW]]: More often than not. Comics that actually ''are'' work-safe are the ones with labels.
* [[Only the Chosen May Wield]]: Parodied in [http://www.oglaf.com/noblesse/ Noblesse Oblige].
Line 220 ⟶ 232:
* [[Out, Damned Spot!]]
* [[Out with a Bang]]: One of the more unusual plays on this you're likely to find - Ivan's spooges end their "lives" by splashing on (so far) a woman's face or breasts.
* [[Perky Goth]]: [http://oglaf.com/threnody/ Sort of].
* [[Perp Sweating]]: With a [[Cue the Sun|sunbeam]]. Of course, when the "perp" has [[Kryptonite Factor|dire reason to avoid]] sunlight, [http://www.oglaf.com/grill/1/ this is more threatening than usual] (SFW.)
* [[Perverse Sexual Lust]]: [[In-Universe|He's using]] that potion [http://www.oglaf.com/potion/ wrong.] Only references anything NSFW.
Line 226 ⟶ 239:
* [[Poisoned Chalice Switcheroo]]: The Xoan Ambassador tries to pull a poison ''penis'' switcheroo on Ivan.
* [[Porn with Plot]]: [[Word of God]] is that the comic started out as an attempt to make pornography, until it "degenerated into sex comedy pretty much immediately."
** [[In-Universe]] here: [http://oglaf.com/fully-fleshed/] (amusingly, the images are SFW).
* [[Power Perversion Potential]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/shield-maiden/ Invincible Shield Maiden]. Though she doesn't seem too happy with it.
* [[Progressively Prettier]]: Ivan evolved from being a goofy looking comical character in the beginning to a genuinely hot pretty boy with ever-so curly hair. Though how much of this is [[Progressively Prettier]] and how much is simply [[Art Evolution]] is unclear.
* [[Protagonist Title Fallacy]]: Oglaf is simply one of many recurring side characters. If there's a protagonist, it's Ivan.
* [[Put on a Bus]]: {{spoiler|Ivan. He's in a magical sleep.}}
* [[The Quisling]]: [http://oglaf.com/heel-empire/ Some] are trying too hard (SFW)
* [[Rated "M" for Manly]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/honor/ VICTORY AT SEA!]
** Also, "[http://oglaf.com/feral-chic/ feral chic]".
* [[Rapunzel Hair]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/emancipation/ 'Mistress']
* [[Rebellious Princess]] [[King Incognito|Incognito]]: "[http://www.oglaf.com/pea/ Princess activities suck!]"
Line 262 ⟶ 278:
** [http://www.oglaf.com/snakeskin/ This] strip shows one way to [[Subverted Trope|avoid it]].
** Terrifyingly played straight [http://www.oglaf.com/porkchisel/ here].
* [[Tall Poppy Syndrome]]: [http://oglaf.com/acrophobia/ Making a cult out of agoraphobia] (SFW)
* [[Tar and Feathers]]: [http://oglaf.com/rodgar/1/ "Prince Rodgar"]
* [[Technical Virgin]]: An entire city of them!
Line 272 ⟶ 289:
* [[Too Kinky to Torture]]: Ivan -- at least, Navaan seems to think so. You have to wonder how her other victims reacted to the threat of sexual intercourse with a hot woman...
** Considering that the entire city is populated with virgins who are terrified at even the ''possibility'' that someone sexually promiscuous might be running about, Navaan probably expected such threats to elicit a somewhat more fearful reaction.
* [[Totem Pole Trench]]: Or rather [http://oglaf.com/bascinet/ armor].
* [[Tricking the Shapeshifter]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/kingshaped/ Whoops.] (safe for work)
* [[Turn Undead]]: [http://www.oglaf.com/rigormortis/ Not the kind you were thinking].
