* [[Solar CPR]]: the Alchemist's "Violent" setting is used to {{spoiler|turn a gas-giant planet into a nascent star}}.
* [[Spheroid Dropship]]: The series features a lot of spherical spacecraft (e. g. ''The Lady Macbeth''). They are mostly used by the Adamists.
* [[Sufficiently Advanced Aliens]]: The Kiint are the resident super-civilization, with {{spoiler|outposts in multiple galaxies, secret immortal spies in almost every known civilization}}, [[Casual Interstellar Travel|casual intergalactic teleportation]], and a home star system that has {{spoiler|a ''collar'' of inhabited planets sharing the same orbit}}. They can also {{spoiler|casually [[WalkWalking Onon Water]]}}. Their solution for their ''own'' possession crisis was to {{spoiler|clone ''trillions'' of mindless bodies for the returning souls to inhabit}}. The planet that the Confederation knows of is {{spoiler|just an outpost in our galaxy, and the accepted explanation for its almost-complete ''lack'' of infrastructure is that the Kiint got so advanced that they grew bored with big technology}}.
** The {{spoiler|Tinkerbell aliens and the creators of the Sleeping God}} are even ''more'' advanced than the Kiint. Both have learned how to create {{spoiler|Naked Singularity Gods}} and have used them to leave the universe in search of something more ''interesting''.
** The {{spoiler|Sleeping God}} states that it had nothing to offer the Kiint that which they could not get for themselves, and that, {{spoiler|in time, they would learn how to create its kind as well}}.
