** He also has a bit of a 300 fantasy after driving off a horde of villains from the ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130313045621/http://whatsshakincomic.com/2011/04/25/page-33/ edge of a castle]''.

* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]: Coffin and Pai don't wear shoes!
* [[Elemental Absorption]]: Fred, a fire elemental, absorbs fire magic, which is why he hunts fire mages to consume their powers.
* [[Elemental Embodiment]]: All the elementals are called Eternals, which are embodiments a single element. The only eternal seen so far has been ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20131019021219/http://whatsshakincomic.com/2010/09/06/ch1-pg1/ Fred]''.

** [[Soul Power|Spirit Magic]]: Pai is a spirit mage, a type of mage that can gain the powers from creatures from the spirit world. Granted, she can't use these powers just yet.
** [[Summon Magic]]: Spirit mages like Pai are able to summon their spirits in the form of "haints" aka ghosts. Of course... Pai is not able to use these powers yet.
* [[Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors]]: In contrast to typical canon, ice and water elements are weak against fire as seen in the ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130313045855/http://whatsshakincomic.com/2011/08/22/page-48-2/ fight against Fred]''.

* [[Final Boss Preview]]: Fred.
* [[Glass Cannon]]: Coffin is a fairly powerful fire mage, but without his reliance of fire, is mostly vulnerable to all other attacks. He does seem to have some bit of ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20180103082625/http://whatsshakincomic.com/2011/02/14/page-24/ acrobatic skills]'' though.

* [[Scenery Porn]]: Many large panel scenes are drawn this way to emphasize something dramatic going on. Or transitional pages to help break the mood, like ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130313045903/http://whatsshakincomic.com/2011/05/09/page-35/ THIS]'' one.
