Fate Revelation Online by Daniel-Gudman is a crossover of the Sword Art Online universe with Fate/stay night.Following the Fifth Holy Grail War, Ilya is living happily with Shirou and has decided to spend her remaining months enjoying modern media. Shirou is willing to indulge her and has been shanghaied into playing with her in the next big game: Sword Art Online. Upon the Official Launch, they find themselves trapped in the game along with ten thousand others. Shirou resolves to do everything in his power to save as many people as possible.But this is more than just a sadistic death game. On launch, Kayaba Akihiko announces a "thaumaturgy patch" so that players may learn magecraft. Ilya and Shirou immediately realize that the game's magic is perfectly accurate to the real world. Kayaba has broken some of the most important laws of the Moonlit World by revealing magic to normal people, and worse he has done it in such a way that the players are not just victims, but collaborators. If the Enforcers find out about this, they will slaughter everyone to keep the secret safe.In order to save as many people as possible, Ilya and Shirou are forced to play the game. Along the way, they teach the players what magecraft they can, all the while knowing that if something doesn't change, then even upon finishing the game, everyone will still find themselves criminals for violating laws they didn't even know existed.And beyond it all, underlying every moment in the game, is the all-important question. The question Kayaba himself encouraged everyone to ponder:Why did Kayaba do this?It can also be found on Sufficient Velocity. | |

"Get Back Here!" Boss | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_10f5b375 | comment |
"Get Back Here!" Boss: The [Moby Roc] constantly circles high in the air, well out of reach of any offensive magecraft or archers. The only time it comes into range of the ground-based raid is when it dives for a One-Hit Kill. The original plan is to stake out its nest, but then Shirou kills it. | |

Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_15264ac9 | comment |
Unexpectedly Realistic Gameplay: When Kayaba traps everyone in his death game, he also introduces a [Thaumaturgy Patch] which, unbeknownst to almost everyone, is an extremely accurate simulation of real magecraft. Everyone is very confused at this new magic system, from the harsh penalties for failure to the incredibly in-depth lore, to the way that your magic stats seem to be randomly set at character creation. The few real mages trapped in the game quickly deduce that Kayaba is training everyone in real magic, but can't figure out why. As the game advances, he adds more realism, such as changing healing magecraft from "filling up the HP bar" to repairing and regenerating damaged tissue. | |

Hidden Agenda Villain | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_161fa3b8 | comment |
Hidden Agenda Villain: Kayaba Akihiko traps ten thousand people in a death game and introduces a [Thaumaturgy Patch] that creates a far more complex magic system than the bare-bones Low Fantasy version it had before. He invites everyone to find out why; "If you wish to uncover my motive, struggle to clear the game." No one understands why he would trap so many people, or place so much emphasis on the magic system. The few real mages in the game know full well that the magic system is a near-perfect simulation of real magecraft, but that just leaves even more questions. If he really does let them out at the end, all he's done is create ten thousand collaborators to his crime of breaking the masquerade, and they'll all be executed by the Enforcers. Argo, who was following the development of the game beforehand, thinks back to how Kayaba was revolutionizing not just the gaming industry, but software as a whole; she even started a forum thread on the topic that was featured on CNN. He has to have some plan, but no one knows what. | |

Always Someone Better | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_19d1c1ae | comment |
Always Someone Better: The fic is about the Sword Art Online characters learning magecraft under the belief that it's just a game. They advance quickly, and many of them are capable of truly impressive feats. Then there are Ilya and Shirou, who were not only aware of magecraft before the game, but had just won a magical death tournament. Ilya has literal orders of magnitude more magical power than anyone else in the game and is an expert on most magic systems, while Shirou is a genius swordsman who can copy the powers of legendary heroes in true emergencies. After both of them separately solo a raid boss, the AI in charge of game balance gives up and declares them exempt from balancing. | |

Wrong Context Magic | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_1b9df446 | comment |
Wrong Context Magic: In the beta test and all preview material, the VRMMO Sword Art Online was a fairly standard Low Fantasy game. There were plenty of fantastical monsters, but the players had no magic of their own besides a handful of healing or escape crystals. Everything was based around the [Sword Skills], a way to simulate real swordsmanship with the system assist. And then on launch day, along with the announcement that everyone was trapped, Kayaba also announced a [Thamauturgy Patch] that removed the magic crystals and added a different, far more in-depth magic system. All the gamers lampshade that this system makes no sense compared to everything that came before. Rather than being based entirely on a few set skills you can train up, large parts of it are based on random stats that seem to be set at character creation, you can invent new spells and share them, the caster's thoughts and intent are very important, and even things like the religious affiliation of the person who crafted an item can have major effects. Entire magecraft disciplines are either ridiculously overpowered or simply redundant due to game mechanics. The truth, of course, is that Kayaba is simulating real magecraft and is using the death game to train ten thousand people in magecraft. The few people who already knew about magic before they became trapped quickly make a name for themselves due to their in-depth knowledge of the magic system. | |

Adorably Precocious Child: The avatar that Ilya originally made for Shirou, deliberately designed to match his real life appearance when younger, makes him seem like this while it lasts. Agatha, the NPC on the fifth-floor quest. She's based on Sakura Matou as a child and Kirito hands her over to Zolgen, who's based on Zouken. "Ellis Bell" brings her along when he gives Shirou a quest to move them to the 25th floor. | |

Adventure-Friendly World | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_1e75509c | comment |
Adventure-Friendly World: It was meant to be an MMO, after all. Kirito notes that the only part of the game which isn't friendly is the thaumaturgy system, whose complex rules, limitations, and eccentricities are too messy and cumbersome for a game. Orange players benefit from this in their own way, as Cardinal develops special content for them due to being locked out of most activities and towns. | |

They're actually so strong and knowledgeable about magecraft it leads to suspicion among some players that Ilya and Shirou are alpha testers, in league with Kayaba, or even outright AI. For Ilya, one, if not two, of those rumors is even true. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Ilya dislikes Visual Novels where sloppy writing makes the player think there is a flag for a route that simply doesn't exist.note Nasu has said that there was an "Ilya route" planned for Fate/stay night, but it was scrapped due to time constrains and some elements from it were recycled into the route Heaven's Feel. Supposedly, Shirou accepting Ilya's proposal during his kidnapping after triggering the right flags was the intended branching point (in the Fate route, doing that only leads to a Bad End.) PoH forcing the warlord to accept his duel challenge by moving its finger is a nod to Sleep PKing in Sword Art Online. A character named Sacchi has massive prana reserves and a traumatic Origin. Diabel tries to guess Kayaba's motives in the fic and basically hits the motivations of both the canonical Kayaba and the antagonist from the Alfheim arc. | |

Un-Sorcerer | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_2d834a85 | comment |
Un-Sorcerer: According to Kayaba, nearly everyone is basically a latent mage, but their magic circuits don't activate on birth, sort of like being born with a stunted limb. The first thing he does with his death game is release a thamauturgy patch to teach the players real magic in the guise of the game, including activating their latent circuits. Unfortunately, even with that, Argo still doesn't have any magic circuits. She actually has the Rare Element [Metal], which would normally make her quite powerful, but with zero circuits she simply can't do anything with it. Thankfully, Shirou, a real-life mage who once thought he had no magic circuits, teaches her how to make a fake circuit so that she can be a passable mage. | |

Older Than They Look | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_2f36d97 | comment |
Ilya has an encyclopedic knowledge of the magic system, stupidly overpowered magic circuits, and is collecting players with Rare Elements. Several people theorize that she is working with Kayaba and received some benefits from that. She is working with Kayaba, but that's unrelated to everything else. As a homunculus purpose-built for the Holy Grail War, she's one of the strongest and most knowledgable combat mages in the world. People also notice that sometimes her childish mask slips, and theorize that the "magic mirror" that revealed everyone's true appearances didn't work right on her because Kayaba programmed in an exception. She is Older Than They Look, but again, it has nothing to do with Kayaba. | |

Hammerspace | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_356b1efb | comment |
Hammerspace: As in the original light novel, items are stored in an inventory system rather than physically on the player. Each item has a weight, so the players can only carry as much as their STR allows. In order to "increase realism", Kayaba eliminates one of the inventory tabs in Chapter 15.1, which creates fear among players that this trope will eventually be averted. | |

Invisibility with Drawbacks | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_36a08086 | comment |
Invisibility with Drawbacks: By the time the players reach the ninth floor there are several versions of this spell running around, but each one has a huge flaw. Foreign prana washes away the invisibility and it only turns what the spell is cast on invisible, so an Invisibility Cloak will appear invisible but show the person beneath it. | |

Adaptational Heroism | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: In canon, the guild Fuumaningun only showed up briefly to antagonize Argo. Here, the guild Fuumanin are not only wholly subordinate to Diabel, but a proud Front Liner scouting guild. In canon, there were hints that Diabel had real leadership potential and the best interests of the other players at heart, but he got killed trying to steal the Last Attack on the first boss. Here, being saved by Shirou gives him a chance to develop into a real leader. Kuradeel was introduced as a mole for Laughing Coffin in the Knights of the Blood Oath, and gleefully murdered someone for no real reason before getting killed himself. Here, while he clearly has the seed of resentment, getting recruited by Ilya does wonders for his self-esteem, and he even gets a decent reputation among the Front Liners for going embarrassingly far on Shirou's fetch quest. While Rosalia is already a criminal by the time she is introduced, Ilya forcibly recruiting her turns her into a hero almost against her will. Likewise, her guild gets turned into a subordinate guild of the BSM, rather than a mid-tier thief guild. The Front Liners in general, really. In canon, the Clearing Guilds were little more than a collection of the strongest players vaguely united in a common goal. They were in constant competition, could barely agree on strategy, and at least once a major decision was decided by a duel rather than, y'know, democracy. Here, due to Diabel keeping them working together, they are the paragons of the players, with everyone seeing them as the heroes working to keep the rest of them safe. | |

Magically-Binding Contract | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_4353c4b7 | comment |
Magically-Binding Contract: Part of the reason that Ilya doesn't just break out of Aincrad with her magic is that Kayaba bound everyone with a Contract at the same level as a Command Seal. It's not explained exactly how he bound them, but the most likely possibility is that he slipped it into the game's Terms of Service. Of course, Ilya is powerful enough and skilled enough that she could still break out, so Kayaba bribes her by promising to attempt to fix her flawed body and give her a full lifespan. | |

Intergenerational Friendship | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_47d35854 | comment |
Intergenerational Friendship: Well, teenage version. To kids, the difference between an eighteen year-old and a twelve year-old is huge, so Asuna sees her friendship with Ilya as something like this. Of course, the audience knows that Ilya really is eighteen (though she enjoys playing up her appearance a bit), so she has more in common with her than Asuna realizes. On the other hand, everyone assumes that Ilya and Silica are the same age so their friendship makes perfect sense, but in reality Ilya is at least six years older. | |

Useless Useful Spell: [Structural Grasping] is seen as mostly a variation of the [Appraise] skill by most players and thus useless.

| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_5300b1de | comment |
Invincible Hero: Shirou's and Ilya's in-game reputations grow into this. In fact, a minor plot point in the story is the worry that the auto-balancing functions of the Cardinal system will lead to an inversion of Monster Threat Expiration and make the game harder for everyone else. This reputation only grows when the game patches them into [Titled Players], with one of the perks being complete exclusion from the auto-balancing system, as its way of solving the issue. | |

Stock Light-Novel Hero | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_53535691 | comment |
Stock Light-Novel Hero: Subverted with Kirito. He's one of the front-line players, but he's Overshadowed by Awesome by most of the other people in the guild he's not quite joined. Ilya is the best mage in the game bar none (and a decent warrior besides), Shirou is the best warrior in the game bar none (and a decent mage besides), Asuna is universally well-rounded, and everyone else has a Rare Element that helps them stand out from the crowd. Kirito, by contrast, merely has the Ether element, which works best when you have another element paired with it. This isn't always a bad thing—since Kirito isn't trying to hide his strength, he's able to give the Moonlight Black Cats a lot more help than canon, and they don't get slaughtered when they face an unexpectedly powerful enemy. Likewise, he never really gets a harem because all the girls are helped by other people instead of him. His only love interest is Asuna. | |

Non-Combat EXP | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_5432a8a1 | comment |
Non-Combat EXP: After the fight with the first Floor Boss, Shirou realizes that his experience gains from the battle vastly paled in comparison to his gains from inventing a new spell. He and Ilya realize that this means that Kayaba is encouraging players to focus on the magic system, almost to the exclusion of all else. From an in-game perspective, this is a good thing, as it allows non-combat players to stay competitive to at least some degree, letting the player base move forward in a more unified manner. From an out of game perspective, it's absolutely terrible, because when the Enforcers finally realize what is happening and come to execute Kayaba for revealing magic to the world, the players will not be "victims" but "collaborators." Unless something changes, they'll all be executed for crimes they didn't even know existed. | |

Had [Moby Roc] targeted any other player but Shirou, they would have been killed. It's explicitly mentioned that if Asuna hadn't slowed it down and he didn't have such a high agility score, he wouldn't have been able to activate [Ribs of Steel] in time and it still takes out half his health. A normal player would have been skewered and carried off if still alive. Shirou then kills it with a couple sword-arrow shots. | |

Helping Would Be Killstealing | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_5b96128d | comment |
Helping Would Be Killstealing: Early on, Shirou focuses on a Fragile Speedster build, running to and fro saving players who are in over their heads. Unfortunately, because many of them don't realize they're in over their heads and he runs off again without explaining himself, he gets a reputation as a kill-stealing jackass. Things get better once he becomes more careful about letting the people he's saving get the final hit, and after the first couple weeks people are experienced enough that he doesn't need to constantly run around rescuing them anyway. | |

Pragmatic Villainy | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_5ca80293 | comment |
Pragmatic Villainy: Ilya learns early on that Kayaba is not actually killing the players who die in the game; Kayaba warns her not to mistake this for mercy. It is soon revealed that he is using them to beta test new features, and if they refuse to cooperate he uses them for direct soul experimentation. While no one else in the game knows Kayaba isn't killing anyone, Rosalia guesses that's the case, because it would be easier and safer. If people are constantly dying due to in-game deaths (as in canon), then the outside world would have a constant motivation to get the players out as fast as possible. If they're not dying, then it would be a much lower priority and Kayaba's experiment is more likely to continue unimpeded. | |

Zombie Apocalypse: The fifth floor is set with this theme. Grimrock says repeatedly that they are not zombies, they are The Dead. Zombies are purely a product of voudoun magical traditions, and using that term for any other undead is simply incorrect. Griselda finds this amusing, but does note that the NPCs agree if you care enough to ask. | |

Orphan's Ordeal | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_60c90bd5 | comment |
Orphan's Ordeal: Many of the children Sasha has taken in have night terrors, either due to witnessing other players die or due to separation from their parents. Diabel is concerned their mental issues will be even worse if they come to identify themselves as "orphans" only to be reunited with their parents, so he has deliberately changed the Orphanage into a Boarding School. | |

Artificial Intelligence | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_60e2ec3e | comment |
Artificial Intelligence: Yui, from SAO canon, shows up, in addition to the far more powerful Cardinal system that manages game balance. Yui is a Turing-capable AI, which allows her to process natural language and fuzzy data far better than Cardinal despite having less processing power. For reasons Yui doesn't understand, only Turing-capable AIs are deletion-accepted and deletion-enabled. While she was originally created as a mental counseling AI, she is retasked as a Psychopomp for the dead players, putting them to work testing game features. The "mental" conflict between what she was designed for and what she is doing now is, like in canon, creating errors / issues for her. | |

Background Magic Field | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_649b0880 | comment |
Background Magic Field: "Mana" is the life energy of the planet; when it is processed inside a person's magic circuits, it becomes "prana," which can be used for magecraft. This is mostly the same as canon, though the terminology differs. However, because it's inside a game, the rules are a little different. Not only is the mana density much higher than it is in the real world, it's almost all pure mana, which everyone can safely use. In the real world, mana almost always has an element, and anyone not affiliated with that element will hurt themselves trying to use it. As with everything else, elemental mana starts appearing later on in the game, as Kayaba slowly ramps up the realism to train players in real magecraft. | |

Invisibility Cloak | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_66f69cd4 | comment |
Invisibility Cloak: Several guilds are excited at the possibility of making an invisibility cloak... and disappointed when they discover that while making a cloak that is invisible is easy, making anything that makes its wearer invisible is far harder. Some people do find uses for invisible lengths of fabric, though, especially when they are combined with enchantments that make them nigh-indestructible. One guild hangs them like sheets as an invisible shield, which monsters don't know how to deal with. | |

Culture Clash | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_70ade2c4 | comment |
Culture Clash: The difference between the Front-Liners and everyone else slowly widens as the game progresses. For example, the Inheritance System allows someone to learn a spell by sharing sensations, watching how a spell is cast from inside someone who already understands it. Front-Liners use this casually; Kirito learned the basic [Cure] spell from the best healer in the game this way. To everyone else, this is an extremely intimate procedure that, at best, should only be done with your own guildmates. So everyone is a little weirded out when he casually teaches Sacchi a spell this way. | |

Stock RPG Spells: These exist through magecraft. Healing Hands: [Cure] spell. As part of the growing realism, it later on works by creating false flesh and gluing it to the wounded flesh to stop bleeding. It is invented by the Paladins and "trademarked" by them, even though they sell the spell books for 1 col. Status Buff: [Reinforcement] does a general job, and some monsters have their own variations. Status-Buff Dispel: One of the bosses can strip players of their buffs, forcing them to be reapplied. Status Effects: The various bosses early in the game have these; e.g., the floor boss on Floor 1 can cause paralysis, and the Floor 3 boss can cause poison. | |

| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_73733868 | comment |
Awesomeness by Analysis: Shirou's Structural Analysis. He's so good at it that he manages to accidentally go into the system and discover how to make steel. Outside of his magecraft, Shirou's skill in analyzing his opponent's style allows him to custom-tailor weapons perfectly suited to them. Grimlock is exceptionally skilled with magecraft and can easily identify ways to improve or counter any spells he encounters. As a magus he has experience, and he can determine the weakness in a quest boss's bounded field as well as point out how his party could have killed it instantly with a curse. | |

For Want of a Nail | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want Of A Nail: The presence of Shirou and Ilya changes more than a few parts of SAO canon. Shirou saves Diabel during the fight against the First Floor boss, meaning Diabel goes on to lead the biggest guild in the game, and Kayaba doesn't need to get involved directly. Ilya recruits Asuna and Kirito early on, so Asuna never joins the biggest guild, and Kirito is only a solo player for a couple weeks (though he doesn't officially join the guild, he's acknowledged to be effectively a member). Ilya recruiting Rare Element holders means that Silica becomes a Front Liner, and Rosalia and Kuradeel get picked up before they can really become villains. Grimlock being a magus in real life means he is more familiar with the idea of danger and is less of a coward, so he doesn't have as much of a problem with his wife becoming more assertive. Kirito's Overshadowed by Awesome experiences mean he has less of a problem revealing his power level to the Moonlit Black Cats, and all the help he gives them means that they don't get killed when facing an unexpectedly powerful enemy. | |

Crutch Character | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_7deb3fb1 | comment |
Crutch Character: Shirou serves as this during the beginning of the game since he is miles ahead of other combatants for the majority of the early boss battles and knows what he's doing as a magecraft-user to a better extent than most others. The fact that the first, third, and (fake) fifth boss battles end without causalities is because he directly intervenes. Ilya is one, as she knows more about magecraft than anyone else and can easily curbstomp a boss while having a greater capacity than anyone else. She's just more subdued about it. For Griselda's party, Grimlock is cited to know all the information and methods to improve magecraft once someone gets him talking. His knowledge basically makes what is supposed to be a raid-sized boss a very easy kill. Which only makes sense, as he is an actual magus. | |

Fetch Quest: Discussed by Argo, Liz, and Ilya in Chapter 13.4 as a way to keep casual players from mooching high-level weapons from Shirou, a policy adopted by 15.1.

Breather Episode: In-universe, which worries the Front Liners. Floor 20 is an endless series of islands, basically just a massive tropical paradise. Even the monsters have lower levels than would be expected, and the Floor Boss appears to be a rather straightforward tank and spank—which doesn't matter, because it's an open-air fight and the players manage to cheese it with the construction rules. Diabel and the others suggest this might be a sign that things are going to get bad soon. Notably, the next floor we see, Floor 25, is a perpetually dark nightmare floor that 90% of the playerbase has quite a lot of difficulty even navigating. | |

Unique Protagonist Asset | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_80d7308 | comment |
Unique Protagonist Asset: Discussed; as in Nasuverse canon, people are born with an affinity for various elements of either the Western or Eastern arrays. Sometimes, however, people can have a "Rare Element" that does not match any of these, and is often unique. The players semi-jokingly refer to these people as "Protagonists" since it's such a common anime plot for the main character to have some rare special ability. Rosalia mentions that many people have Rare Elements that are too specialized and weird to make good use of; these people usually don't get called Protagonists. Shirou (as in canon) has the Sword element, which is even more useful in a game completely built around swords. Silica has the Beast element, and Ilya begins collecting Rare element holders at Kayaba's request. | |

Entertainingly Wrong | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_81c4faa3 | comment |
Entertainingly Wrong: Since the death game uses real magic, the few real magi stuck in the game look absolutely bizarrely competent to everyone else, and all sorts of theories pop up around them. Ilya has an encyclopedic knowledge of the magic system, stupidly overpowered magic circuits, and is collecting players with Rare Elements. Several people theorize that she is working with Kayaba and received some benefits from that. She is working with Kayaba, but that's unrelated to everything else. As a homunculus purpose-built for the Holy Grail War, she's one of the strongest and most knowledgable combat mages in the world. People also notice that sometimes her childish mask slips, and theorize that the "magic mirror" that revealed everyone's true appearances didn't work right on her because Kayaba programmed in an exception. She is Older Than They Look, but again, it has nothing to do with Kayaba. Shirou has a knowledge of the magic system almost as good as Ilya, and he has ridiculous skills and reflexes far beyond any other player, and perhaps beyond the human limit. There are two competing theories: That he was an "alpha tester" who played the magic system before launch, or that he's a player who died early on and received Brain Uploading. The truth, of course, is that he's a low-tier mage who has managed to put all of his pitiful magical power into combat, combined with an impossible will to save everyone. Combining the two, Diabel is careful about using Shirou to control Ilya because he doesn't know their exact relationship. At worst, Shirou might be an AI programmed to help Ilya while seemingly disagreeing with her, and pushing too hard will just reveal the lie. At best, their relationship is too complex for Diabel to understand. He considers using Shirou in any way to be a last resort, even though Shirou is unfailingly helpful. | |

Logical Weakness | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_83641c73 | comment |
Logical Weakness: The Hungry Antlion has a bounded field that connects its magic circuits to the field and lets it leech prana from everything in it. Grimlock's solution is to simply let it drain as many Mana Potion items as it can handle until its body can't hold anymore. It can't limit the amount taken because of the bounded field and is overloaded with prana to the point its body is destroyed, as well as negating its own magic resistance to Curse magecraft. | |

Psychometry | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_875f008a | comment |
Psychometry: Kirito and Argo discover that at higher levels [Structural Grasp] (which is normally treated as a weak appraise spell that is quickly passed over and ignored) will give information on the history of the object. This isn't randomly generated fluff, either—it is perfectly accurate information on everything that has ever happened to this specific object. That would require an exponential amount of data storage that constantly increases, orders of magnitude more than the rest of the game combined. That would be crazy enough on its own, and then there's the fact that only three people in the game can actually access this information. The truth, of course, is that magic is real and they are unknowingly casting a real spell to read the game object's history. When Argo pushes hard enough, she overhears a couple programmers talking when the object was first coded, which understandably freaks her out. | |

Overshadowed by Awesome: Ilya is the best mage in the game bar none (and only slightly lower-ranked as a warrior), while Shirou is the best swordsman and blacksmith in the game bar none. Asuna and Kirito were two of the most famous players in canon, but since they're in Ilya's guild they're basically just seen as above-average. | |

Can't Catch Up | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_94d2506d | comment |
Can't Catch Up: Argo worries she'll fall further and further behind other players and as an information broker due to possessing no magic circuits. Shirou's intervention alleviates that. Kirito begins worrying about this as players display more and more powerful magecraft whereas his own lags behind. Leviathan's "blood" element is useless until the anatomy update introduces blood. He thinks that this starting penalty will keep him from ever making it to the front line until Ilya recruits him. Even after that he's very conscious of how different his experience and ability are in comparison to his guild mates. | |

There Are No Therapists | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_96fbeaf | comment |
There Are No Therapists: Defied. Although Kayaba deactivated Yui's emotional counseling like in canon, the [Mutual Aid Society] establishes a system after the Sixth Ranger drags someone who tried to commit suicide to them, and Diabel makes sure anyone in his guild who has lost someone or needs it gets it. Whether or not they accept it is another story. Yui actually has something to do this time around - she serves as a Psychopomp and devises treatment for adversely affected specimens Kayaba experiments upon. The conflict between her old programming (to counsel players) and her new programming (to put them to work) causes problems. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Human? | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_9c45b5a2 | comment |
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: NPCs are treated as non-humans, with players manipulating them through magecraft. A small number of NPCs are noted as acting unusually self-aware but appear to be rare thus far. Now, remember that Nasuverse rules apply here and consider the NPCs as Muggles for the implications. Fortunately, not all players totally agree with this mindset and the more extreme examples are generally viewed as being at least a bit shady. At least one of the more self-aware NPCs, Ellis Bell, is actually the avatar of Kayaba who is mentoring Kirito. | |

Competitive Balance | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_9f4a47f2 | comment |
Competitive Balance: This is one of Cardinal's primary purposes, populating the world with enemies and rewards to create a balanced and enjoyable experience. This is also why Diabel is worried about Shirou and Ilya; if they are so much more powerful than the rest of the players, then they will either be nerfed (which is unlikely since they are using skills they obtained from outside the game) or the world will become tougher to compensate—which will make the lives of everyone else much, much more difficult. Cardinal eventually solves this paradox by naming them [Titled Players], exempt from normal game balance. When Klein's guild manage to One-Hit Kill a boss, there is a discussion on why this didn't grant anyone a [Title]. Kirito points out that the system isn't about really strong players, it's about players who are too strong for the system to handle. Klein's trick was situational, required his entire guild to help, and technically anyone could use it. By contrast, most of what Shirou and Ilya do is completely unique to them and can't be taught or shared. Klein can be balanced, Shirou and Ilya can't, so Klein doesn't get a title. | |

Most Dangerous Video Game: Unlike the source work, it's subverted. Early on, Ilya is able to briefly connect with the outside world, and discovers that people who have died in the game have not died in the real world (though the ones who had their NerveGear removed really did die). This is an important enough secret that Kayaba Akahiko himself immediately contacts Ilya and makes a deal so that she will keep the secret; his experiment requires that the players truly believe they could die. Yui, the Mental Health AI, is using at least some of them to test new game features. | |

One-Hit Kill | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_a414c3f0 | comment |
One-Hit Kill: Had [Moby Roc] targeted any other player but Shirou, they would have been killed. It's explicitly mentioned that if Asuna hadn't slowed it down and he didn't have such a high agility score, he wouldn't have been able to activate [Ribs of Steel] in time and it still takes out half his health. A normal player would have been skewered and carried off if still alive. Shirou then kills it with a couple sword-arrow shots. By later floors, Shirou's exploits have become famous enough that whenever a floor is cleared unusually quickly, the rumor is that Shirou one-shot the boss again. It's usually a case of Dungeon Bypass instead, though (such as when the DDA skipped a massive maze with their jetpacks). Klein's rocket-powered yacht hits the 20th Floor Boss at more then three hundred kilometers per hour, at which point its entire fuel payload detonates, killing the Boss in one attack. | |

Red Baron: Shirou is initially called [The Sixth Ranger] as an insult because he swoops in to help people and then runs off, like an overpowered kill-stealing jackass from an anime. As the game wears on and players begin to understand that he's genuinely helping, it becomes a real honorific. And then the [Titled Player] system is implemented, exempting certain overpowered players from the game balance. Shirou's official name is changed to [The Sixth Ranger], and Ilya's becomes [The White Witch]. | |

Always Night | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_b0155044 | comment |
Always Night: The 25th floor is a single flat plain of mud and grass with no natural light, exactly one type of monster (which spawns in the darkness in response to light), and bosses that can cancel player lights. Oh, and there's some effect on maps that makes it very easy to get lost. Players with the ether element have dousing and can easily find their way back to the capital, but everyone else has a lot more trouble. | |

Town with a Dark Secret: The NPCs of a town on the 10th floor don't believe in magecraft due to Zolgen using it as a hiding place and messing with their memories. | |

Fate Worse than Death | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_b1346878 | comment |
Fate Worse than Death: Some players are reincarnated as monsters upon their death, to be killed and respawned endlessly in order to play-test upcoming content patches and avoid additional scrutiny due to a higher death toll among players. The stress of their situation is so bad that many develop serious mental issues such as paranoia and schizophrenia. Also rather hilariously subverted: The one player we see subjected to this fate takes his continual reincarnation as a challenge and promptly starts using the new building construction rules to play Dwarf Fortress with his tormentors. Players who choose to "die" after dying in-game are used as test subjects-slash-specimens for Kayaba Akihiko's experiments, where their very souls are operated upon. Yet others are used as magic circuits inside monsters. | |

The Worm That Walks | |

The Worm That Walks: Zolgen. Ilya notes that she finds it funny how Kayaba based a boss enemy on his own master, Zouken Matou. Then Zolgen kills two players who are friends with her apprentice, and she doesn't think it's funny anymore. | |

Dungeon Bypass | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_b4d6aa7d | comment |
By later floors, Shirou's exploits have become famous enough that whenever a floor is cleared unusually quickly, the rumor is that Shirou one-shot the boss again. It's usually a case of Dungeon Bypass instead, though (such as when the DDA skipped a massive maze with their jetpacks). | |

The Ace | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_b5b4b077 | comment |
The Ace: Shirou is considered this due to his skill when it comes to the game's magic and combat systems, as well as discovering how to make steel early on. Shirou's reputation grows to the point that some of his exploits are told jestingly because they're too outrageous to believe, such as essentially soloing a field boss and later soloing a floor boss. Ilya also gets this treatment, because of her knowledge and ability to use Alchemy to make the Sorcery Trait for Mystic Eyes of Binding when it hasn't been unlocked yet. Diabel notes she's not really better than a lot of the players in combat; she simply doesn't hesitate when attacking. They're actually so strong and knowledgeable about magecraft it leads to suspicion among some players that Ilya and Shirou are alpha testers, in league with Kayaba, or even outright AI. For Ilya, one, if not two, of those rumors is even true. | |

Linked List Clue Methodology | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_b5f5824e | comment |
Linked List Clue Methodology: This seems to be a common form of filler in quests, sent bouncing around the floors until you're inevitably right back where you started. Which is part of the reason that Ilya uses her Mystic Eyes of Binding to skip to the end as much as possible. Asuna and her friends, while looking for an easy quest to kill time, end up with a Chain of Deals that Liz and Silica are pretty sure is going to end in a Gift of the Magi Plot. The reason why it's this trope is because the girls don't realize it's actually full of hints leading them to a much bigger plot. When they get to the end, they find that an essential NPC has disappeared, and dismiss the quest as Unwinnable by Mistake. If they had pushed harder, they would have discovered that the man they were talking to was the missing Floor Boss, and he ate the NPC they're looking for. Griselda's guild takes a quest to track down a missing NPC. At each step they talk with another NPC who had worked with him and knows where he searched next. Partway through they decide not to bother with the breadcrumbs and just dowse for the man's location. | |

Obvious Rule Patch | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_b89ed08a | comment |
Obvious Rule Patch: Cardinal automatically balances gameplay to ensure it remains challenging, leading to concerns that extraordinary players like Shirou will trigger an increase in difficulty. The Titled Player rule patches the auto-balancing feature to ignore such players while continuing to balance gameplay for the majority. The Wolf Trap rule delays placement of structures while outside Safe Areas. This ensures the system can't be exploited to trap or kill enemies, as Yona apparently has been doing. The living players, of course, have no idea why it is labeled [Wolf Trap rule]. | |

| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_c02f148d | comment |
Both Sides Have a Point: Sasha and Diabel disagree over Boarding School's children learning magecraft. Sasha argues that it's a step towards turning them into Child Soldiers participating in the Death Game which has already left some emotionally scarred. Diabel counters that he merely wants them to contribute in a research role to support the children who are still fighting and paying for their school. Unspoken is his fear that Kayaba may interfere if more players don't participate. | |

I Control My Minions Through... | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_c35cddcd | comment |
I Control My Minions Through...: PoH controls the player-killer guild through a combination of them all being equally crazy, opportunities for both excitement and safety, and of course murdering people who threaten him. Rosalia controls her guild through Pragmatic Villainy; they're not player-killers, but they are criminals, and she encourages them to keep their crimes light because when they escape the death game the actual murderers will likely get punished (even though she doesn't think Kayaba is actually killing people), while the thieves like them will be fine. However, above all else she just likes being in control, so she makes it so that her boys feel like they can't survive without her. Ilya explains that you need to consider this with familiars. Since they are, by nature, entities that can make decisions independently of you, if you make them too smart they might realize they're slaves and turn against you. The standard familiar bond manipulates them emotionally, and she recommends keeping them less intelligent so they can't get out of it—though she also points out that, for all the flaws of Keita's animated furniture, they'll never turn against him. Of course, she herself is an Artificial Human who hates her family, so she would know. On the more positive side, Diabel is the leader of the playerbase by dint of his reputation as the most reasonable, most effective leader they could possibly have. He puts almost as much effort into keeping the rest of the players engaged and productive as he does on making sure the Front Line is advancing steadily. He's worried that there will eventually be a Difficulty Spike that makes them stall, which could endanger everything. Their entire society is based on the Front Line advancing; people define their jobs and social standing on whether they are Front Liners, Mid Liners, Rear Liners, or Side Liners. If the Front Line fails to stay ahead of the Mid Line, then everything would fall apart. | |

Difficulty Spike: In-Universe. As the game progresses, in line with Kayaba's goal of training them to be actual magi, it becomes more difficult. Even something like healing evolves from "filling HP bar" to "generating new flesh to stop bleeding" on the fifth floor and will require the players to research further, just to survive the later floors. | |

Alchemy Is Magic | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_d251db87 | comment |
Alchemy: Magecraft that focuses on acts instead of effects, anything done with it tends to be permanent because it's conversion rather than creation, closer to chemistry through the arcane. It's also dangerous since a poor conversion of metals can transmute your base metal into a lethal relative, especially with heavy metals, so it's essential to memorize the periodic table. | |

Ilya dislikes Visual Novels where sloppy writing makes the player think there is a flag for a route that simply doesn't exist.note Nasu has said that there was an "Ilya route" planned for Fate/stay night, but it was scrapped due to time constrains and some elements from it were recycled into the route Heaven's Feel. Supposedly, Shirou accepting Ilya's proposal during his kidnapping after triggering the right flags was the intended branching point (in the Fate route, doing that only leads to a Bad End.) | |

Anti-Frustration Features | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_d6f284a3 | comment |
Anti-Frustration Features: Standard, of course, due to the game setting. The game goes to a lot of effort to balance realism and convenience. In restaurants, there are NPC waiters and chefs. But you place the order using a menu, and the waiter instantly spawns and brings your food to you. Kirito likes a specific restaurant because it's too out of the way to bother with waiters, so food just spawns directly at your table. Fall damage is negated entirely if someone catches you, no matter the height. As Kirito says, it's easier on the system this way too, as rather than dealing with pitons and other safety gear (which the system would have to keep track of), they just need a friend ready to catch them. Subverted as they go up the floors, when patches start adding more realism in order to teach players how to use magic more realistically. This includes healing magic going from just basic refilling a health bar to having to learn how to regenerate flesh and blood. Diabel realizes that if some of their basic [Menu] features disappear, they'll be practically helpless, and quietly starts a think-tank to come up with alternative mapping and communications spells. | |

Terminally Dependent Society | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_d8fdf777 | comment |
Terminally Dependent Society: Diabel realizes that they are entirely reliant on the game [Menu], with the private messages, auto-mapping, HP and MP bars, and so on. Normally that wouldn't be a big deal, since they're inside a video game and there's no reason to suspect that these features will be disabled. But then a patch removes the [Items] tab of player inventories for "realism," and Diabel realizes that if the [Menu] disappears then their entire society will instantly break down. Just to start with, they have no backup system for messaging people, and yet they're spread over dozens of floors and thousands of square miles. Diabel quietly starts a think-tank to look into backup plans just to be safe. | |

Have a Nice Death | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_d933263 | comment |
Have a Nice Death: There are three reoccurring shows for non-canon deaths: Tiger Dojonote Lion Dojo after a Hostile Show Takeover, with Taiga and Saber for Shirou; Imouto Dojonote with Suguha for Kirito; and Kotomine's Church (for Bad Guys)note with Kotomine and Gilgamesh for, well, bad guys. The hosts offer advice to the character... but also note that since it's a linear story there was no real choice to be made. The Altar of Serious Businessnote with Lancer is a show hosted for actual deaths, primarily those who die mainly to escalate tension. The Alley Cat Alliancenote with Argo and Sacchi is based on the other shows and focuses on side characters. Instead of offering "advice", it acts as an outlet for minor characters to vent about being minor. | |

The Blacksmith | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_da4f8f0 | comment |
The Blacksmith: After the players become organized enough that the Sixth Ranger is no longer needed, Shirou turns to blacksmithing as a way to help people. Lisbeth is rather depressed when she realizes he can easily outdo her when crafting a sword. Grimlock is primarily a blacksmith until his wife convinces him to start actively playing. He's one of the first blacksmiths able to make steel weapons. He still crafts some weapons to order even after the steel market crashes, specializing in mystic codes. | |

Superpowerful Genetics | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_dc2c2968 | comment |
Superpowerful Genetics: Like in the Nasuverse canon, magi like Shirou and Ilya are born. However, Kayaba has somehow managed to induce magic circuits into most other players, allowing them to use magecraft. Supposedly, most people are actually latent magi, except their magic circuits failed to initialize properly at birth – sort of like being born with a stunted limb. This entire [Death Game] is apparently Kayaba's attempt to both prove this hypothesis and correct the defect in the players. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
On the more positive side, Diabel is the leader of the playerbase by dint of his reputation as the most reasonable, most effective leader they could possibly have. He puts almost as much effort into keeping the rest of the players engaged and productive as he does on making sure the Front Line is advancing steadily. He's worried that there will eventually be a Difficulty Spike that makes them stall, which could endanger everything. Their entire society is based on the Front Line advancing; people define their jobs and social standing on whether they are Front Liners, Mid Liners, Rear Liners, or Side Liners. If the Front Line fails to stay ahead of the Mid Line, then everything would fall apart. | |

Audience Participation | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_dd91f8d8 | comment |
Audience Participation: Ideas and drafts of chapters are posted to a separate forum allowing critique and discussion by other forum-goers. Some ideas in the story originated from or were modified through these discussions. In the original version of One Snow and Itagaki's deaths, early readers noted that the setup felt heavy-handed and their actions amounted to a "super death flag". The chapter was subsequently revised to make their deaths more unexpected. | |

Functional Magic | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_dfe120e5 | comment |
Functional Magic: Nasuverse style magecraft: Alchemy: Magecraft that focuses on acts instead of effects, anything done with it tends to be permanent because it's conversion rather than creation, closer to chemistry through the arcane. It's also dangerous since a poor conversion of metals can transmute your base metal into a lethal relative, especially with heavy metals, so it's essential to memorize the periodic table. Dousing: A mystery that flows along the easiest path to what is desired, so in the case of fresh water it is a balance between the largest and the closest aquifer that draws in the spell. More often than not, it is performed to use a wand or rod as a conduit so that the spell effect can cause a physical effect. Yolko can use her lightning element to feel for electric fields. Druidry: Magecraft centered around the use of nature and a variation of runic magecraft. Formalcraft: Magecraft that uses rituals, it uses circles and draws from mana. It requires following instructions perfectly and most players aren't that well into it because it's too much work compared to other forms, but it scales well. Onmyōdō: Japanese magecraft with the use of things native to the Far East, like an ofuda that can act as a Protective Charm. Runes: Nordic magecraft using the letters of the Futhark system. Gemcraft: The use of precious stones as Amplifier Artifacts. Summoning Ritual: Rituals to summon spirits and demons, including the Bornless Ritual like out of Ars Goetia. | |

Slave Race | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_e0309d03 | comment |
Slave Race: During the otherwise Breather Beach Episode, Ilya casually points out that all Familiars are slaves, and if you make them too smart you have to worry about a Turned Against Their Masters situation. Silica is horrified at this, since she loves her animals, but Ilya counters that her animals never chose to love her back—Silica programmed them that way and still uses them as disposable tools that she can modify at a whim. Ilya, of course, doesn't see anything actually wrong with any of this. | |

Slave to PR | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_e031b7ef | comment |
Slave to PR: Diabel is well aware of this. He might be a Reasonable Authority Figure, but his unofficial control of the players is based entirely on him being the most effective, most efficient leader in bringing the game to a close. If the Front Line suffers a major stall, the players might begin to wonder if he should be in charge. He's especially worried because of some of the things he's deduced about Kayaba's priorities; he has to balance clearing the game with getting players more involved with the magic system (which is, for reasons Diabel doesn't understand, Kayaba's highest priority), all while hopefully not playing along too much with whatever horrible thing this madman is planning. Diabel's chapters often involve him pausing for long paragraphs before he speaks, thinking over the best way to word everything he says. | |

Insistent Terminology | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_e563bf09 | comment |
Insistent Terminology: NPCs and actual magi are very insistent on using the correct terms and will attempt to correct players who use the wrong word. Grimlock is especially picky here. Diabel has the name of Sasha's orphanage changed to "Boarding School". He wants to keep people thinking of the children there as students and not orphans, as that could mess them up even more than they already will be when the game ends. | |

Honesty Aesop | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_e663cfb | comment |
Honesty Aesop: Referenced; when an NPC asks what Kirito was promised a reward, Kirito recognizes it as an "honesty gate," and that lying will either result in a quest failure or seeming success, and will bite him later. The problem is, he genuinely doesn't remember how much he was promised, and he doesn't think the NPC is smart enough to accept that answer. Instead, he decides to ask for the random book on magic Numerology that he found while waiting. The NPC agrees, opening up a quest chain for Kirito to learn a new and complex brand of magecraft. It also turns out that this "NPC" is actually Kayaba Akihiko himself, the man who trapped them there in the first place. It's unclear if he always planned to teach Kirito Numerology or if this was just a coincidence that he took advantage of. | |

Asuna and her friends, while looking for an easy quest to kill time, end up with a Chain of Deals that Liz and Silica are pretty sure is going to end in a Gift of the Magi Plot. The reason why it's this trope is because the girls don't realize it's actually full of hints leading them to a much bigger plot. When they get to the end, they find that an essential NPC has disappeared, and dismiss the quest as Unwinnable by Mistake. If they had pushed harder, they would have discovered that the man they were talking to was the missing Floor Boss, and he ate the NPC they're looking for. | |

Walk on Water: By the twentieth floor, Hanzou has become able to do this by drawing the air beneath him, compressing it and sliding it along the surface of the water before him, by moving at high enough speed that the surface tension of the water provides enough resistance to his legs. | |

The Roleplayer: One guild takes their Ninja personas very seriously, constantly treating Diabel as their lord and the other top players as his noble attendants. Diabel and the others find this rather uncomfortable, but they're genuinely good at their jobs, so everyone just puts up with it. | |

Laser Blade | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_f8cddfb2 | comment |
Laser Blade: Shirou and Kirito have a prototype lightsaber by Chapter 15.3, but it can't cut anything due to a conflict caused by the creation method that can't be solved. | |

Tell Me How You Fight | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_f922bb73 | comment |
Tell Me How You Fight: When Shirou starts making weapons for people, he decides he needs to fight them first in order to determine what would be best for them. He fights them in the Safe Zone, meaning it's impossible for them to take damage... which is a good thing, because Shirou is a brutal fighter. | |

Brain Uploading | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_fc52510 | comment |
Shirou has a knowledge of the magic system almost as good as Ilya, and he has ridiculous skills and reflexes far beyond any other player, and perhaps beyond the human limit. There are two competing theories: That he was an "alpha tester" who played the magic system before launch, or that he's a player who died early on and received Brain Uploading. The truth, of course, is that he's a low-tier mage who has managed to put all of his pitiful magical power into combat, combined with an impossible will to save everyone. | |

Brick Joke | |
| Fate Revelation Online (Fanfic) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: Yona, while testing the construction module, develops a deep hatred for the "Griefer Wolves" that harass him, swearing to drop every last one of them into a lava pit. When the content goes live it includes a "Wolf Trap rule" to prevent exactly that. While explaining the Chain of Deals quest type to Asuna, the rest of the party poses a theoretical example where you need spark plugs to fix a car as the starting point. Several chapters later, Lizbeth is having a seemingly serious discussion with Shirou in the background only for him to suddenly ask if the quest was to fix Merlin's car. | |

Encounter Bait: [Lure Tinctures] are made using a drop of a mob and lure in specific monsters that eat that mob. They're great for grinding. | |
