Line 14:
** Takes place mostly within the Deep Forest, amongst the mysterious Deep Forest clans such as Auroch, Forest Horse, and Torak's mother's clan, the Red Deer. {{spoiler|Bale is killed by Soul Eater No.5, [[Meaningful Name|Thiazzi]] the Oak Mage.}} Torak, Wolf, Renn and Raven Clan chief Fin-Kedinn set off to get revenge, heading deep into the dark heart of the Forest and running afoul of the clans that live there. Except the Red Deer, who are strictly pacifistic. {{spoiler|Soul Eater No.5, Thiazzi the Oak Mage, is killed.}}
* ''Ghost Hunter''
** Mainly takes place in the High Mountains, with clans such as Mountain Hare, Rowan, Swan, and the mysterious Hidden People. It follows Torak's journey to confront {{spoiler|the final Soul Eater, Eostra}}, after the latter spreads a mysterious disease and fear throughout the lands. [[spoiler:Soul Eater No.6, Eostra the Eagle Owl Mage, is killed.....and Torak. <ref>Although he does [[Back
Line 26:
* [[Anyone Can Die]]
* [[The Archer]]: Renn, to the point that her bow and arrows are no longer a weapon but a friend and hunting companion.
* {{spoiler|[[Back
* [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] - Oh god, Torak and Renn.
* [[Beta Couple]] - Wolf and Darkfur
Line 32:
* [[Berserk Button]] - Don't ever, ever, ever lie or keep things from Torak. Ever. And don't even think about hurting someone he loves.
** And DO NOT EVER think of damaging, breaking, maiming, buffeting or in any way hurting Renn's bow and quiver of arrows.
* [[Black and Gray Morality]]
* [[Blonde, Brunette, Redhead]] - Bale is the blonde, Torak is the brun-"ette", and Renn is the redhead. None of them entirely fit the stereotypes-- in the Forest, Bale's a bit of a klutz since he doesn't know how to manage, but at the Sea he goes so far as to be an [[Insufferable Genius]]. Torak is clever enough (more than clever enough when it comes to tracking, where he is a [[Scarily Competent Tracker]],) but he can be incredibly stupid and impulsive. Renn is definitely a [[Fiery Redhead]], but she's also the calm, practical and rational one.
* [[Big Badass Wolf]] - Well, naturally...
Line 47:
* [[Determinator]]: {{spoiler|Darkfur}} in ''Ghost Hunter''. Oh boy.
* [[Development Hell]] - A movie with Ridley Scott as the producer has been talked about since 2004...
* [[Doom Magnet]] - Torak! And Dyrati accuses Renn of this. Renn denies it, but later wonders if it's true. And for a supporting character, Aki never seems to catch a break.
* [[Dream Weaver]] - Seshru. In ''Outcast'', she sends Torak a dream to meet her at a spring. At the time, he believes it was Renn who was in the dream, {{spoiler|hinting the resemblance between Renn and Seshru.}}
* [[Earn Your Happy Ending]]
* [[Everyone Can See It]] - In ''Outcast'' Seshru uses this to bait Renn into telling Torak that {{spoiler|Seshru is her mother}}. In the beginning of ''Ghost Hunter'', Fin-Kedinn does everything he can to keep Torak and Renn away from each other, because he know if they became mates that {{spoiler|they would leave the Raven Clan}}. It ends up happening, but he's alright with it. Later in the book, Dark asks Torak if he and Renn are mates, ''without even meeting her''.
* [[Everything's Worse with Bears]] - In ''Wolf Brother'' and ''Soul Eater''.
* [[Face Heel Turn]] - Hord. Also, Dyrati, kind of, although Renn could be right, maybe she's just a bitch.
* [[Fatal Attractor]] - If Bale hadn't fallen for Renn, then he and Torak wouldn't have argued, Torak wouldn't have stormed away from Bale, and Bale wouldn't have been {{spoiler|murdered by Thiazzi}}.
Line 68:
** Dyrati is the foil for Renn.
* Foreshadowing - Some very subtle ones. Most notably in ''Wolf Brother'', Renn telling Hord that he can't treat Torak like an outcast. In ''Soul Eater'', {{spoiler|Seshru's}} voice reminds Wolf of {{spoiler|Renn's voice}}. In ''Outcast'', the Otter Mage tells Bale that he needs to {{spoiler|use his time wisely}}.
* [[Hate Plague]] - Lots of stuff, actually.
* [[Heel Face Turn]] - {{spoiler|Nef at the end of ''Soul Eater'', and Aki at the end of ''Outcast''.}}
* [[Heroes Want Redheads]] - The only person other than Renn that Torak ever feels attracted to is Renn's ''mother''. Clearly Torak is Rennsexual.
Line 79:
* [[No Periods, Period]] - Averted. When Renn began menstruating in''Outcast'' a red bar was tattooed by the clan tattoo on her face.
* [[Now or Never Kiss]] - Torak and Renn in ''Ghost Hunter''.
* [[Official Couple]] - Torak and Renn. Oh, the rage on the fan boards, when Bale told Torak that he was going to {{spoiler|ask Renn to be his mate}} in ''Oath Breaker''. It turned to delight when {{spoiler|he died horribly}}. Poor guy.
* [[Owl Be Damned]] - Only applies to eagle owls.
* [[Papa Wolf]] - Wolf, of course. {{spoiler|When he becomes a papa.}}
* [[Power Trio]] - Torak, Renn and Wolf. They get things done.
* [[Prophet Eyes]] - The Otter Mage.
* [[The Reveal]] - At least one big one per book.
* [[The Rival]] - Bale. {{spoiler|Until he dies.}} Though, really, Torak forgave him super-fast.
