Line 6:
Arguably the most successful non child-oriented Brazilian comic book, the series is infamous for its [[Shout-Out|outrageous anime references]] and a combination of [[Refuge in Audacity|fantasy and horror elements with screwball action-comedy]].
 
After losing his place in the pantheon of Arton due to a conspiracy that could exterminate all gods, [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"|Sszzass]] the [[Manipulative Bastard|God of Betrayal]] [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent|and serpents]] was presumably killed and forever forgotten. In reality he was exiled and extremely weakened. To recover his divine status, he plots a very intricate plan during decades involving various heroes and events.
 
Taking central part in this plan there are innocent [[Raised Byby Wolves]] [[Nubile Savage|druid]] Lisandra, [[Redheaded Hero|redheaded]] [[Idiot Hero|idiot hero]] Sandro Galtran, [[Stripperiffic]] [[Cloudcuckoolander]] elven mage Niele, [[Blood Knight|insanely]] [[Cluster F-Bomb|grumpy]] dwarf-troglodyte Tork, [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"|The Paladin]], a legendary fallen hero and his twenty [[Mineral MacGuffin|Rubies of Virtue]], indestructible magical gems forged by each one of the twenty most powerful gods of Arton and currently scattered all over the world.

Line 15:
* [[Absurdly Sharp Blade]]
* [[Action Girl]]: Lisandra, Loriane, Lenora. Anne to some degree.
* [[A Day in Thethe Limelight]]: Every single main character (and some not so main) got an special issue with one-shot stories featuring them.
* [[A Form You Are Comfortable With]]: The Dragon-Kings are so insanely titanic and monstrous they can kill just by [[Brown Note|being seen]], yet Beluhga the Queen of White Dragons appear as an extremely beautiful woman in an elegant dress and an ice coronet, and Sckhar the King of Red Dragons as a slender, handsome hedheaded elf.
* [[Aloof Big Brother]]: James K. to Anne, or at least [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|what he wants her to think]].
* [[An Ice Person]]: Beluhga, the queen of the white dragons epitomizes this trope. Her mere presence was enough to turn a region the size of China into a glacial desert.
* [[Author Avatar]]: Both Cassaro and Awano. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
Line 36:
** Tenebra, the Goddess of Darkness and patron of all undead is a genuine gentle person who cares for her loved ones.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: The series provides priceless examples. Anne, Tork, Loriane and the inkeeper Rudd are just a few.
* [[Deal Withwith the Devil]]: Niele does this without knowing the consequences by acquiring Sszzass' Eye.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: Actually, [[Subverted Trope|ressurection is said to be very expansive]], and [[Killed Off for Real|sometimes does not work.]]
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]
* [[Drunk Onon the Dark Side]]: {{spoiler|The Paladin.}}
* [[Eye Scream]]: Upon realizing that she was forever imprisoned because of Sckhar, Beluhga becomes a little pissed and gouges one of his eyes off.
* [[Faux Affably Evil]]: Sszzass, Sckhar, the sea elf Prince Deenar.
Line 65:
* [[Love Makes You Crazy]]: And how!
* [[Musical Assassin]]: Lucky Luigi.
* [[No Social Skills]]: Lisandra. Being [[Raised Byby Wolves]] and by a mercenary without contact to civilization does this to one person.
* [[Person of Mass Destruction]]: {{spoiler|Lisandra}}
* [[Playing Withwith Fire]]: Sckhar, The Moóck, and, sometimes, Niele.
* [[Refuge in Audacity]]
* [[Raised Byby Wolves]]: Lisandra. Literally, for at last 10 years until Tork come along, anyway.
* [[Royal Bastard]]: Prince Mitkov Yudennach III of Yuden.
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Poor Petra had a lot of bad stuff happening to her life that practically destroyed her self-confidence. She gets better towards the end of the series.
