Artifact of Death: The Moon of Rats necklace was used in olden times to dedicate human sacrifices to the Rat God; any woman (or homosexual man) who wears it in circumstances resembling those of the original ritual will be dead within a month.

Contralto of Danger: Christine puts this on per her Chrysanda Flamande act. Her real voice is described as a "baby coo" and more high pitched.

Comically Missing the Point: When the director of She-Devil of Babylon starts ranting about the Philistines sabotaging his high art, Christine's response is to ask "Are there Philistines in this movie? I thought they were Persians", and then to go in search of a script to make sure.
