Line 12:
* [[The Alcoholic]]/[[Drowning My Sorrows]]: The ageing astronaut from the abandoned and neglected Komkolzgrad cosmodrome. He considerably brightens up when you help him fulfill his dream of becoming more than a mere former test pilot. He takes off into low Earth orbit in a pretty cool [[Space Plane]]... launched by a clockwork-powered catapult designed by Hans, no less!
* [[Bag of Holding]]: Everything Kate picks up, she tucks into her jacket.
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]:
*

** In the second game, the deceased monk's name in the Russian monastery is written in Greek on his grave.
* [[Cell Phone]]: Kate's conversations with her colleagues and friends back in US are the biggest source of her characterization in the game. They also serve to underline the contrast between the dull, mundane modern life and the impossibly beautiful worlds Kate travels through.
* [[Clock Punk]]/[[Steampunk]]:
** Tons of it, especially in Valadilene, the ancestral home of the whole Voralberg family.
** Komkolzgrad also showcases a hearty chunk of Soviet-style [[Dieselpunk]].
* [[Clockwork Creature]]: The automatons. That includes all of them, since all creations of Hans are, in a way, alive. Yes, the [[Cool Train]], too.
Line 35 ⟶ 38:
* [[In Soviet Russia, Trope Mocks You]]: Seeing how some 60% of the duology are set in Russia, there's a lot of Russian stereotyping going on. Interestingly despite that, it is extremely popular in Russia.
** Maybe because it's actually a pretty mild form of stereotyping, and feels full of deliberate subversions, making it a possible Stealth [[Deconstruction]] of sorts.
* [[Large Ham]]:
** The priest/head of the monastery in the second game.
** The shopkeeper who welcomes you to Romansbourg at the start of the secon game fits this like a glove as well.
** Also, Serguei Borodine in the first game, during your second visit to Komkolzgrad.
