Line 140:
* [[Attack Backfire]]: In ''[[Final Fantasy II]],'' attacking enemies with the wrong spell (eg Ice monsters with Ice magic, Undead with Drain and Osmose or [[Blob Monster]] with Poison) will actually heal the monster. In case of Drain or the Blood Swords results will be ugly.
** In fact, all ''[[Final Fantasy]]'' games after the first one have a system of elemental absorb.
* [[BFS]]: Swords that in real life would be very difficult if not impossible to wield "properly".
* [[Big Red Devil]]: The recurring summons Diabolos and Ifrit tend to be this.
* [[Bishounen]]: In the hero department, they've been present since [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:Amano_Origins.jpg the first game]. As for villains, [http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/File:FF2_Emperor.jpg Emperor Mateus from the second game] paved the way for some of the most infamous and infamously beautiful villains of all time.
* [[Black Mage]]: [[Trope Namer]]
* [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size]]: Swords that in real life would be very difficult if not impossible to wield "properly".
* [[Boss in Mook Clothing]]: Tonberries are the most universal to the series, although individual games have their own specific ones.
* [[Braggart Boss]]: A ridiculously over-the-top boss named "Gilgamesh", [[Epileptic Trees|who may or may not be]] [[Expy|the same person in every appearance.]]
Line 202:
* [[Monster Modesty]]: The Seeq often wear just loincloths instead of pants and when they wear shirts they cover very little. Somewhat odd when compared to other races such as the Moogle, Bangaa, Garif, and Nu Mou who are fully or mostly clothed.
* [[Mythology Gag|Mythology Gags]]; roundabout references to previous games in the series, some being as subtle as special move names applied in different contexts, some as elaborate as characters being composites of those from other installments (such as [[Final Fantasy XIII|Snow]] being modeled off of [[Final Fantasy VIII|Seifer and Zell]].)
** Nevermind the [[BFSBlade of Fearsome Size|giant swords]] and [[Last-Disc Magic|magical holocausts]], it's the [[Infinity+1 Sword|kitchen knives]] you should be [[The Dreaded|afraid of]]. You get to wield their devastating might once [[Too Awesome to Use|and only once]] in the [[Final Fantasy IV|fourth installment]]. Otherwise, avoid so much as being [[Finger-Poke of Doom|poked]] by [[Boss in Mook Clothing|one]]. This gag was mostly lost thanks to the weapon being [[Blind Idiot Translation|translated as a spoon]].
* [[Nice Hat]]: Mages have hats that correspond to their school of magic.
** Black Mages have conical straw hats resting upon their heads that covers their faces in shadows.
