''[[Pandect]]'' is a manga-style webcomic drawn by Canadian artist Dina Situ. It is currently hosted by comicgenesis and can be read here (NSFW): http://pandect.comicgenesis.com/
 
Existing alongside the human world is another class of persons called "Aces," who are animals [[Humanity Ensues|who have earned a human soul]]. With the soul comes a human body and human speech and reason. It also carries with it the attendant problems of existing in human society, which wild Aces find especially difficult. However, Aces generally recognize that having a soul is worth the extra difficulties.

'''Tropes Include:'''
 
{{tropelist}}
* [[A Man Is Not a Virgin]]: Averted
* [[Animal Gender Bender]]: Averted, subverted, reverted, and justified. Venus, Ace of Peafowl, (a peahen) did the naughty with a human and was destroyed, and is currently [[Grand Theft Me|residing in the body of her brother Theo]], a peacock.
Line 35:
* [[Cute Little Fangs]]: Ice
* [[Cute Shotaro Boy]]: Justified: an Ace may be fifty or sixty years old and still look 12 in human years
* [[Dark -Skinned Blond]]: Daku, Kouros
* [[Defeat Means Friendship]]: Ely, apparently
* [[Doomed Hometown]]: Fleance's forest
* [[Earn Your Happy Ending]]: Heavily, heavily implied for Noah and Edgar, and perhaps for Fleance as well.
* [[Eerie Pale -Skinned Brunette]]: Fleance, Waka.
* [[Evil -Detecting Dog]]: Ice.
* [[Evil Twin]]: Subverted: Ice and Rocko use this as an affectionate term of address
* [[Eyes of Gold]]: Fleance, justified since this is a natural color for felines
Line 50:
* [[First Law of Gender Bending]]: Inverted: a female character is transferred into the body of a man. Thus far it has stuck.
* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: Rose
* [[Half -Human Hybrid]]: Averted. Aces and humans must never breed because their offspring are monsters. There is one potential exception, however..
* [[Humanity Ensues]]: Aces define this trope
* [[Immortality Begins At Twenty]]: And "maturity" begins at 100.
Line 62:
* [[Limited Wardrobe]]: Especially for Ace characters, who like to dress in ways that mimic their species; humans have more variety. It's still justified in the case of school uniforms.
* [[Loveable Rogue]]: Sobre again
* [[Mayfly -December Romance]]: Any human-Ace romance.. which is one of the reasons why they are forbidden.
* [[Morphic Resonance]]: Aces' human bodies retain some characteristics of their animal forms, and they frequently style their hair and wardrobes to increase the effect.
* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Venus... maybe. Vanessa, once.
* [[My Nayme Is]]: Ceasar
* [[Near -Rape Experience]]
* [[Never Gets Drunk]]: Edgar. Noah claims he can get drunk but will sober up within minutes thanks to his Gladiator powers.
* [[No One Could Survive That]]
Line 73:
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: Subverted and lampshaded; when Ice asks why a half-Ace is called a vampire when it doesn't resemble, say, Dracula, Fleance replies that "vampire" is a misnomer, but one that's stuck
* [[Puppy Dog Eyes]]: Ice, of course
* [[Raised Byby Wolves]]: Literally true in Ice's case
* [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old]]: Most of the Ace characters are over a century old, and some are closer to 800
* [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent]]: There is considerable animosity between Snake and non-Snake Aces
