Line 16:
* [[Downer Ending]]: {{spoiler|The ''best'' ending is a [[Downer Ending]] that reveals this game is a prequel to Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together, and Alphonse is Lanselot Tartaros, an antagonist of Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together. Best friend killed, love interest killed. }}
** {{spoiler|The non-canonical B ending is better, in that Rictor at least doesn't die. Of course, depending on how you interpret the ending, Alphonse and Eleanor might die. Either that or they completely vanished from the pages of history and never met any of their friends again.}}
* [[Elemental Rock -Paper -Scissors]]: Well, of sorts. There are three sets of two opposed elements: fire and water, earth and air, and holy and dark.
* [[Fragile Speedster]]: Ninjas
* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]]: During fights, the sleep spell is nigh worthless; low success rate, doesn't last for very long (maybe two turns... the time it takes someone wearing armor to job 40 feet and swing a sword twice), and the target will wake up if someone so much as musses up their hair. During a cutscene, however, Alphonse takes a sleep spell, and wakes up (probably several hours, at ''least'' a several minutes) later in a dungeon, tied to the wall.
Line 22:
* [[Guide Dang It]]: Want the Relix emblem (for males) or Ripple emblem (for females)? It gives you a permanent +2 on your mental gauge, which is quite handy... but you'll have to have the person in question go through every class, including angel, ghost, and lich. Good luck...
* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: An odd example in that the main character does this very early in the game; you take a crossbow bolt for your commander, and fall into the ocean (also, you can't swim much on the best of days, and you're wearing armor).
* [[Infinity Minus One-1 Sword]]: Longinus, the [[Sword of Plot Advancement|spear of plot advancement]], is a very good weapon... but it's still weak compared to snapdragon swords.
* [[Infinity Plus One+1 Sword]]: There are precisely four items in the game ([[Lost Forever|some of which are missable]]) that, when used, transform their user into a sword, with stats based on the person the sword was made from. Even if you have a level 1 character use it, the sword will still be noticeably stronger than [[Sword of Plot Advancement|Longinus]], and if you turn a max-level character into a sword, the game might as well throw up its hands and say "I give up".
* [[Interspecies Romance]]: Caused the mermaids to lose the war.
* [[Magic Is Mental]]
Line 38:
* [[Rival Turned Evil]]: {{spoiler|Rictor}} is turned evil [[Demonic Possession|supernaturally.]]
* [[Say It With Hearts]]: Invoked with series mascot Deneb. Naming a witch Deneb unlocks the special "Witch <3" class.
* [[Secret Character]]: Deneb, who is summoned by hiring a female soldier, [[Hello, Insert Name Here|naming her Deneb]], and changing her class to Witch. She's basically the same as the Witch with better stats and attacks, and can use [[Summon Magic]].
* [[Secret Shop]]: It's in {{spoiler|the first town}}, and is accessible only by {{spoiler|Deneb}}.
* [[Shout Out]]: Features one to ''[[Lord of the Rings]]''. When the ogre Rimmon dies, he regains his "human heart" and says "my precious".
