Line 89:
* [[The Worf Effect]]: Kind of a hindsight example, in that Coin easily dispatches Lord Vetinari, that most Magnificent of [[Magnificent Bastard]]s. But at the time the book was written, the Patrician's character had not yet been developed to this, being merely an intelligent politician rather than the [[God Mode Sue|nigh omnipotent]] figure of the later series, so it was probably unintentional. Although, given his remark about how a wise man would ''want'' to be safely locked in a dungeon if the wizards took control, it can be argued that Vetinari's transformation into a lizard wasn't wholly to his disadvantage under the circumstances. And when he was transported to the Unseen University, he was in the process of reading a report of a conversation by the head of the Thieves' Guild that was said in a secret, soundproof room. Coin took him as easily as he did because... well, he could bend reality with a thought.
