Michael Rhodes was just a normal kid, when during his birthday, he mysteriously disappears without a trace while playing with his father in the woods. His disappearance deals a tragic blow that tears his family apart, specially when his father is suspected of having murdered him. One year later, they are still coping with Mikey's loss until he reappears just as mysteriously as he had vanished in the first place, but radically changed as he is now an hulking, fully grown, battle-worn warrior. As its turns out, he was transported to the fantasy world of Terrenos, where he was revealed to be The Chosen One destined to free it from the tyrannical grasp of God-King Lore. He supposedly defeated the tyrant and restored peace to Terrenos, but his servants had escaped to Earth and now plan to merge the two worlds. He returned home to warn his people of this evil but, when nobody believes him, he's forced to take matters into his own hands and becomes a fugitive of the law, with his father Aaron and brother Brennan following him. Things, however, don't really turn out to be what they seem, and there is more to Mikey than he lets out to be: in reality, he had betrayed his allies and sided with Lore to come back home and the war criminals are in fact heroes from Terrenos trying to protect Earth from their world's tyrant.Birthright is a comic series by Image Comics written by Joshua Williamson with art provided by Andrei Bressan and colors by Adriano Lucas, not only focusing on Mikey's attempts at re-connecting with his family but also serving as a desconstruction for the typical story of the Kid Hero Trapped in Another World and destined to defeat the Big Bad and the subject of prophecies in general.If you are looking for the similarly titled Superman comic, see Superman: Birthright. Also not related to the tabletop game of the same name, nor with the sequel of Albedo: Erma Felna EDF, named Birthright. | |

Conditioned to Accept Horror: Sameal's spirit smoke makes quick work of a police SWAT team but he deems it useless against people from Terrenos. Years of bloody, grotesque warfare have rendered everyone from that world immune to mundane fears. | |

Trapped in Villainy | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_1e2af48 | comment |
Trapped in Villainy: Because he is the host to the Nevermind (a parasitic spirit), Mikey has no choice but do Lore's bidding even though he doesn't want the Earth to be destroyed and all he wanted was to be reunited with his family. The Nevermind will torture him and cause him great pain if he doesn't oblige and trying to remove it will eventually kill Mikey. He is eventually freed, but at cost of Rya's wings. | |

Also of the Adventure-Friendly World. Terrenos is in many ways a standard fantasy setting, with monsters and dark lords...making it an absolute nightmare to live in, with almost everyone there traumatized by the constant danger. | |

More than Mind Control | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_28e90e30 | comment |
More than Mind Control: Lore can't force the Nevermind on anyone, it has to be received willingly. He convinced Mikey to take his by showing him how his family had fallen apart without him. Once it's actually inside a host it can't control their thoughts or actions, it can push them to greater extremes and subtly twist their minds, and it can punish you if you disobey orders, but if the host fights through the pain it has no way of forcing them to do something they don't want to do. When Mikey is freed of his he announces that he still plans to kill the two remaining mages, indicating that he truly has gone over to Lore of his own free will. | |

He Who Fights Monsters: A recurring theme is that heroes who rise up to challenge Lore end up falling short either by becoming radicals themselves at best, or joining him out of despair at worse. This seems to have been the case with Lore himself after he defeated the great threat of his time. | |

Enemy Within: Mikey has a Nevermind inhabiting his body. Its a evil spirit that serves as an extension of Lore's will, which causes pain when the host does something Lore doesn't want them to do, and when forcibly extracted from him, it's revealed to be have a very twisted physical similarity to the host. | |

Kick the Dog | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: After successfully pacifying a bear that he and his brother disturbed upon entering into his space and baiting into thinking they are friendly, Mikey kills it by stabbing it in the head. Brennan is disgusted that his brother would do such thing after just proving they were no threat to the bear, but Mikey says that he did that just to protect him. Though he has a justification, it serves as a reminder to Brennan that Mikey isn't as heroic as he seems. Kylen incinerates several police officers that failed to capture Mikey. Just like above, he tries to justify it to cover up their knowledge of magic, but his spiteful tone and gloating how their deaths will aid him by turning Mikey into a national-level terrorist makes it hard to believe it. Her father secures a personal tutor for Mastema to learn magic, one who respects her teenage rebellion and offers understanding. Mastema slaughters her within seconds. | |

Barrier Maiden | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_37f9376a | comment |
Barrier Maiden: The "war criminals" that Mikey is chasing on Earth are actually keeping the barriers between this world and Terrenos. Lore wants Mikey to kill them so he can successfully merge both worlds. With each of their deaths, the barrier spell becomes weaker by the second and Lore's presence becomes more imminent. By the time three of them are dead, the barrier spell is weak enough to allow his minions to invade Earth and prepare a full-blown invasion. | |

Morton's Fork: In Issue #40, the heroes are left with this dilemma when Mastema proves to be beyond reason. Either they allow her plan to run its course and have two entire worlds die so a new one controlled by her can be created, or kill her which will destroy the barrier and let Lore into Earth. Sameal picks the latter because at least this way, the survivors can at least fight off Lore. | |

Possibly transitions into Grey-and-Grey Morality because Lore is sick of the endless war and ruin plaguing his empire and wants a way out.

Body Horror | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_504a1991 | comment |
Body Horror: Mages can take forms appropriate for combat that can be twisted in horrific manners if they can control their power, specially in their magical awakening. Possessions whether caused by Neverminds or Diviners can lead to similar results. The latter are more dangerous because it just doesn't affect the host, but the whole environment around them. | |

Action Survivor: With the exception of Mikey and Sameal, the Rhodes family as a whole becomes this over the course of the story. Brennan, Aaron and Wendy lack any martial training, experience or superpowers granted due to being Lore's host, but they are able to use some quick thinking and chance to overcome the odds. Eventually Brennan is revealed to be a mage, making only his parents the actual examples of this trope. | |

The Dragon | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_53f5119f | comment |
Issue #24 ends with the Rhodes family being reunited for the first time since the beginning of the comic including Grandpa and Rya, Mikey murdering Kylen leaving now only two out of the five alive, and the barriers weakening enough for beings from Terrenos to cross over into Earth — the first one to confront the heroes being Kallista the Pale Rider. And to make matters even worse, Rya is going into labor right there in the middle of an imminent invasion. The next chapter continues the trend with Rya giving birth to her child in the middle of the battlefield, Mastema going missing in action and Kallista kidnapping Brennan to an unknown location. To make matters worse, Mikey's family has pretty much disowned him for his actions and forbid him from getting near his newborn daughter. | |

Hero of Another Story | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_581f6468 | comment |
Hero of Another Story: Sameal's implied backstory is amazing: he was born away from Terrenos, developed mage powers strong enough to jump worlds, found his way there, became one of the top-ten mages in that world, joined the fight against God King Lore for years, then sealed Lore in Terrenos. If only he was a better hero. | |

BlackAndGreyMorality | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_588d766f | comment |
Black-and-Grey Morality: In one hand, you have a monstrous Evil Overlord who turned his world into a hellish landscape to oppress and corrupt it as he sees fit, and has set his sights on Earth and other worlds, with the main protagonist serving his will. Against him, there are the circle of mages on Earth trying to preserve the barriers and keep Lore out, but they won't hesitate to unleash cleansing spirits, murder innocent bystanders (sometimes for fun, even), or manipulate Mickey's loved ones to serve their ends. It's not helping that their motivations aren't entirely heroic or selfless: one of them states she'd rather abandon Terrenos to its fate and continue abusing her superpowers as wealthiest woman on Earth, and only wants to stop the Big Bad for personal reasons and her own survival, while another has gone from a Wide-Eyed Idealist to an Ax-Crazy maniac from the stress of living in another world while his home world was ravaged into Mordor. Possibly transitions into Grey-and-Grey Morality because Lore is sick of the endless war and ruin plaguing his empire and wants a way out. Doesn't stop him from trying to Body Swap with a teenager so he can continue expanding his empire, but he DOES want to fix the inherent problems of all worlds. | |

Good All Along | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_5f611b7e | comment |
Good All Along: Turns out Mikey's plan all along was to kill the five mages on Earth so that Lore will personally come to Earth to oversee the invasion, because Lore is weaker and easier to kill on Earth. Subverted with Lore. In the first few arcs, there's a number of hints that Lore might not be the villain he's made out to be — he gives a few heroic speeches, he's mentioned as a previous chosen one, and when he defeats Mikey he heals him and politely shows lets him see his family. Then he finally gets a portal to Earth and nope! Turns out he's every bit the evil dark lord he seemed. | |

Big Brother Instinct: Mikey will not have anyone threaten his brother Brennan if he can help it. Amusingly, he is technically the younger brother when he vanished, but due to how time flows faster in Terrenos, he is an adult on Earth and much older than Brennan. | |

Hopeless War | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_6b510ace | comment |
Hopeless War: A common theme that drives the protagonists' actions is how utterly hopeless war against Lore has driven them to despair. The Five pulled out from Terrenos and moved to Earth in the first place because no matter how many of Lore's monsters they destroyed, they were nowhere near hurting Lore himself (let alone managing to destroy him) and with each battle more and more innocents were killed in the crossfire. Mikey's devastating defeat at Lore's hands was one of the reasons why he decided to strike up a deal with him to return home. To drive things home, even the invincible evil overlord utterly failed to win the war (because he can't win the peace yet) and desperately wants a way out. He claims the only reason he's continuing this war is because "good" is obsessed with fighting "evil", summoning Destructive Saviours, AntiHeroes, Sociopathic Heroes, Villain Protagonists, and constant Senseless Sacrifice of populations and infrastructure, and his armies are the only thing keeping order in a world that would gleefully tear itself apart the moment its 'ultimate evil' vanished. And the icing on the cake? The conspirators who brainwashed Lore into conquering Terrenos for them have been enslaved and broken by the United States government for years, meaning Lore's win condition (give rulership of the Terrenos to the conspiracy) is impossible, and his conquest has been rendered completely pointless yet unsatisfyingly endless. Then everything gets even worse when the barrier is destroyed and Lore invades Earth; the war between humans and Terrenos becomes a Curb-Stomp Battle in Lore's favor in less than seven days. | |

Godzilla Threshold: In Terrenos, those desperate enough will summon a cleansing spirit known as the Diviner, which twists every single thing around it into abominations that will seek out and hunt Lore's agents. The result almost always razes all surrounding life and its deemed too horrific to use by Rook and his allies because the cost is too high and the effects are dangerous and unpredictable. Despite this, the actual diviner they encounter attempts to negotiate Mikey's surrender and heals Brennan as a goodwill gesture. | |

Deconstruction | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_8ae880f7 | comment |
Deconstruction: For the Trapped in Another World kind of story where a young kid gets taken from Earth to a fantasy realm where he is The Chosen One destined to take down the Big Bad. In this kind of story, the horrors of war turn the Kid Hero into a Shell-Shocked Veteran and his resentment over being separated from his family and forced to fight in a war he never asked for ended up driving him to side with the Big Bad. Its also one for Invincible Villain. When confronted with an big bad dark lord who has seemingly endless armies at his disposal and black magic, the natural reaction of most people would be to give up fighting against him altogether, or give up on conventional means and turn to questionable tactics. Also of the Adventure-Friendly World. Terrenos is in many ways a standard fantasy setting, with monsters and dark lords...making it an absolute nightmare to live in, with almost everyone there traumatized by the constant danger. | |

| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_8f0c88f | comment |
Invincible Villain: Deconstruction with Lore. Not only is he an extremely powerful mage, but he commands seemingly endless resources and armies that never seem to run out. Many heroes spent years fighting non-stop against him, but they never seem to make any progress - on the contrary, their fighting led to many innocents getting caught in the crossfire and making things worse. In the end, the ones that opposed him have either fled Terrenos or willingly sided with Lore to stop the carnage. And as it turns out, being an invincible villain also takes a toll on Lore himself, who also wants to stop the fighting so he can establish peace in this realm. | |

Traumatic Superpower Awakening: Magic can be strengthened through pain, specifically psychological pain. As a child, Mikey underwent magic training by trying to remember pain and Brennan is able to learn his full potential by being prodded by Kallista with resentment over Mikey. | |

The Unchosen One | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_9f9ef70f | comment |
The Unchosen One: Since the prophecy regarding Lore is revealed to be bogus and Mikey was never the chosen one as believed by the resistance, his loved ones are now encouraging him to continue fighting against Lore because nobody else will. | |

It Gets Easier | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_a3673c4c | comment |
It Gets Easier: Mikey is absolutely horrified when he is forced to kill for the first time, but he can't afford not to, as he cannot possibly last on Terrenos and fate demands that he must bring down the God-King, so he must become a warrior whether he likes it or not. His adult self is most certainly not hesitant in killing. | |

I Did What I Had to Do | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_b17f6a27 | comment |
After successfully pacifying a bear that he and his brother disturbed upon entering into his space and baiting into thinking they are friendly, Mikey kills it by stabbing it in the head. Brennan is disgusted that his brother would do such thing after just proving they were no threat to the bear, but Mikey says that he did that just to protect him. Though he has a justification, it serves as a reminder to Brennan that Mikey isn't as heroic as he seems. | |

Trapped in Another World | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_b58642b1 | comment |
For the Trapped in Another World kind of story where a young kid gets taken from Earth to a fantasy realm where he is The Chosen One destined to take down the Big Bad. In this kind of story, the horrors of war turn the Kid Hero into a Shell-Shocked Veteran and his resentment over being separated from his family and forced to fight in a war he never asked for ended up driving him to side with the Big Bad. | |

Mirror Character | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_ba5bbda5 | comment |
Mirror Character: Kallista to Mikey. Both lost family at a young age, fought alongside Rook for decades, and eventually joined Lore upon deciding that fighting him was only making things worse. While circumstances of motives differ significantly, Mastema is revealed to be this to her father Lore, since they both want to establish an utopia via genocidal means - Lore wants to conquer all possible worlds so he can establish his idea of stability and order, while Mastema plots to have both Earth and Terrenos destroyed in hopes of containing Lore and re-creating a new world in her image. And just like him, her mind will not be swayed. Lore and Mikey share a lot more in common than with each other when the former's backstory is revealed. Both were children that were taken from their respective homes (Mikey was native from Earth and Lore from Terrenos) and deposited on each other's. Because of their traumatic experiences, they developed deep hatred against the worlds where they were exiled to. | |

Knight Templar | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_bbfaa837 | comment |
Knight Templar: The Five will use any measure to preserve this world and stop Mikey from destroying the protective spell that threatened Terrenos, such as unleashing a Diviner on Earth and targeting Mikey's family (who are innocent and don't know about his true nature as Lore's agent). One of them, Kylen (who is masquerading as a government agent), goes as far as vaporizing a SWAT group to pin the blame on Mikey, and turn him into a national threat. Ironically, their enemy Lore is one as well. Its said by Mastema that he wishes to impose order on the chaos in his world and across all others in existence as result of his personal brand of "justice". | |

Desecrating the Dead: Kallista is a big fan of this. She used the corpse of Kylen's wife on Terrenos to perform a spell allowing her to transport herself to Earth and using Kylen's corpse to reach the other side. She promptly possess his body to tear it apart and raise the remains as her undead minions. | |

Imperiled in Pregnancy: Being heavily pregnant by the time she travels to Earth, Rya also risks being stuck in this world forever (since its her child that has the power to cross dimensions) and may not return home. She actually goes into labor when Kallista arrives to kill the last remaining mages and she is nearly caught in the crossfire, though she manages to deliver the baby and survive. | |

Just as it seems Mastema agrees... She attacks them instead preferring to persist in her plan. Her betrayal forces Sameal to to kill her causing an explosion that takes him with her and unleashes Terrenos' invasion on Earth... | |

Fallen Hero | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_c6655b23 | comment |
Fallen Hero: Mikey was supposed to defeat Lore and release Terrenos from his tyranny, but instead made a deal with him to go back to Earth. Turns out he was never a prophecized hero and when he is finally freed from Lore's control, he stops being this trope and turns into The Atoner. It's revealed that Lore also was considered the chosen one that would save Terrenos, but this trope gets played with when it turns out a trio of evil witches forced him to play "hero" by conquering all of Terrenos by force. Mastema becomes one late into the series. As one of the original Five devoted to protect Earth, she deems Lore's invasion to be inevitable and begins to plot the destruction of both worlds to prevent it, effectively becoming worse than him. | |

Won the War, Lost the Peace | |
| Birthright (Comic Book) / int_cb2d889 | comment |
To drive things home, even the invincible evil overlord utterly failed to win the war (because he can't win the peace yet) and desperately wants a way out. He claims the only reason he's continuing this war is because "good" is obsessed with fighting "evil", summoning Destructive Saviours, AntiHeroes, Sociopathic Heroes, Villain Protagonists, and constant Senseless Sacrifice of populations and infrastructure, and his armies are the only thing keeping order in a world that would gleefully tear itself apart the moment its 'ultimate evil' vanished. And the icing on the cake? The conspirators who brainwashed Lore into conquering Terrenos for them have been enslaved and broken by the United States government for years, meaning Lore's win condition (give rulership of the Terrenos to the conspiracy) is impossible, and his conquest has been rendered completely pointless yet unsatisfyingly endless. | |

Romantic False Lead: Shortly after arriving in Terrenos, Mikey gets introduced to a princess the prophecy says he will marry. Nevertheless, it is clear that Rya was his actual lover, and the princess isn't seen in any flashbacks after his first year in Terrenos. He apparently did marry her, but it turns out she doesn't love him and neither does he. Given that the prophecy isn't actually about Mikey, the prophecy likely doesn't refer to her at all, but a different princess who may be Mastema's mother. | |
