Line 24:
* [[Driven to Suicide]]: Cassie once attempted suicide as a child.
* [[Elite Mooks]]: Chairwoman Byleth and the board of directors of Harlequin Healthcare company; unlike lesser mooks, they're [[Immune to Bullets]].
* [[Expy]]: The entire planet (Erebus) is an expy to Earth in the '50s, including the [[Eagle Land|United States of Empyrean]] being involved in [[The Cold War|a cold war]] with [[Dirty Communists|the People's Republic of Rodina]].
* [[Fate Worse Than Death]]: In Braathewaate's moment of [[You Have Failed Me...]], he attempts to explain the circumstances. The Adversary then says Braathewaate can give half of his explanation, the Adversary will eat him whole, and he can give the other half when he comes out the other side. It's unclear whether this is enacted (or even practical) or just a bizarre, gruesome threat.
* [[Fauxreigner]]: Granted, Braathewaate technically ''is'' rather foreign (being from [[Hell]]), but he spends most of his appearances speaking with a fake Scottish [[Funetik Aksent]].
* [[Fire and Brimstone Hell]]: Perdition.
Line 35:
* [[Hell Gate]]: One was accidentally opened as a result of Rodinan weapons research.
* [[Impersonating an Officer]]: Byleth and her board of directors pose as NBI agents in an attempt to take custody of Cassie.
* [[Istanbul (Not Constantinople)]]: In this world, the People's Republic of Rodina<ref>the Russian word for ''motherland''</ref> is the apparent counterpart to Communist Russia.
* [[Jacob Marley Apparel]]: ghosts look the way they did when they died, complete with injuries.
* [[Knife Nut]]: Berkely
Line 44:
* [[Mind Rape]]: Cassie makes a [[Serial Killer]] relive his first murder from the perspective of the victim.
* [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]: Dr. Melchior and Dr. Mastiphal, and probably many others, since agents of Perdition tend to infiltrate occupations that put them in close proximity to the dying, so they can harvest their souls.
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: Dr. [http://www.answers.com/topic/mastiphal Mastiphal], Dr. Melchior, head of the Melchior Asylum; Harlequin Healthcare Chairwoman [[wikipedia:Byleth|Byleth]], and board members [[wikipedia:Mictlan|Mictlan]], [[wikipedia:Naamah chr(28)demonchr(29demon)|Naamah]], and [[wikipedia:Damballa|Damballa]].
* [[No Celebrities Were Harmed]]: <s>FBI</s> NBI director <s>J. Edgar Hoover</s> J. Elgar Purvis and former <s>Soviet</s> Rodinan despot <s>Josef Stalin</s> Viktor Suvorov.
* [[No Party Like a Donner Party]]: happened to the Rodinan dissidents stranded on a ship in the arctic.
* [[Not-So-Imaginary Friend]]: The ghosts Cassie saw as a young child.
Line 70:
* [[Wolf Man]]: Many [[Mooks]] base their [[Game Face]]s on ''[[The Wolf Man]]''; one of the members of the Potterfield Circus is a non-supernatural wolf boy who looks that way because of a gland condition.
* [[You Can See Me?]]
* [[You Have Failed Me...]]: the fate of {{spoiler|Braathewaate}}.
* [[You No Take Candle]]: When speaking English, all but one Rodinan character speaks like this, in addition to occasionally using [[Gratuitous Russian]].
