{{examples}}
== Theatre ==▼
* [[William Shakespeare]]—See [[The Zeroth Law of Trope Examples]], [[Shout-Out/To Shakespeare]].▼
* ''[[Orfeo]]'' sought to revive Greek theater, in which music played an equally important role to the drama. Although it failed in this regard, it created the notion of a "drama set within music"; inventing opera and all other musical theater. Curiously, ''Orfeo'' is the name of both the [[Ur Example]] and the [[Trope Codifier]]: two separate works written by separate composers.▼
== Anime & Manga ==
* ''[[Astro Boy]]''—The first modern anime to make its way to the United States, it also included the first [[Anime Theme Song]]. It was a creation of [[Osamu Tezuka]], who also defined the style of manga and anime for decades with it and other works.
Line 175 ⟶ 170:
* ''[[Call of Cthulhu (tabletop game)]]'' was the first major horror RPG, and is the acknowledged Trope Maker of the [[Sanity Meter]], a variation of which can be found in almost all horror RPGs that followed it (e.g. Humanity in ''[[Vampire: The Masquerade]]'', the Madness Meters of ''[[Unknown Armies]]'', etc, etc). As with ''[[Dungeons and Dragons]]'', this aspect is often copied in video games as well as tabletops.
* It's a rare [[Card Games|collectible card game]] that owes nothing at all to ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]''. It could be argued that there's no such thing, since Richard Garfield essentially invented the ''idea'' of a game with collectible pieces.
