Line 18:
** Even though Tarquin is a mighty warlord, he's still willing to dedicate a day to bonding with his estranged son. Except that [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0750.html every place] they went to [[Kick the Dog|reminded the reader of how terrible of a person]] he is.
** When we see Xykon pet the dog, he presents it as a slap in the face to Redcloak, although it's entirely possible he really did think Jirix had at least earned a Raise Dead spell.
** Vaarsuvius, while reveling in evil, is sick and tired of hearing the refugees talk about their search for a place to settle. How does Evil V plan to silence them? [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0643.html "Epic Teleport"], giving them a marvelous place to settle.
* [[Pie in the Face]]: [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0416.html Redcloak barters ten minutes of Xykon's attention] to discuss strategy with this old gag, {{spoiler|spicing it up by having acid-spitting beetles in the banana cream pie to fit better with the lich's taste}}.
{{quote|'''Redcloak:''' Don't go anywhere, I've still got a coconut custard that has "siege engine disposition" written all over it.}}

* [[Taking the Bullet]]: [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0425.html Roy, for Elan.]
* [[Talking Is a Free Action]]
** Lampshaded, and [[Invoked Trope|mentioned]] [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0166.html once by name.] Arguably [[Justified Trope|justified]], in that, by the [[Dungeons
{{quote|'''Haley:''' Relax, speaking is a free action.}}
** Averted in [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0186.html #186] where V's excessive talking uses up one of the two rounds before the dragon attacks.
Line 362:
* [[Token Minority]]: Borderline, in that half the party isn't even human, but Roy's still the only black guy. In the party at least—there's still a fairly liberal spread of skin pigmentation in the rest of the world, Azure City notwithstanding.
* [[Too Dumb to Fool]]: Happens to Elan and Thog once in a while. Averted just as often, though.
* [[Took a Level
* [[Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth]]: Or rather, [http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0030.html too bland].
* [[Total Party Kill]]: {{spoiler|With the [[Sole Survivor|sole exception]] of Niu, the Azure City Resistance was completely wiped out by Redcloak.}}
