Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Conciencia y Voluntad is an independent novel by the writer Esteban Ruquet. It was published in Argentina in 2012 by Pixel Editores, a small publisher from La Plata city. The work has won the first prize from the Aurora Venturini award, and the prize money was used in order to publish it.The plot revolves around the finding of the missing terrorist and political figure Franco Rocafirme by a young private eye in an Used Future, where the relatively minor city of La Plata has arised as a new Soft Empire after the sunking collapse of the modern civilization. Pablo Astoria, the private eye, is put in charge of this job by the old University professor Nicolás Pérez Aznar, an old friend of Rocafirme and also a major figure of the revolution.The setting is placed in a Near Future year 2057 and revolves around the remains of the Western civilization, mixing the Noir genre and the soft Sci-Fi, and involves two cities: Ensenada and La Plata, now heavily changed by the wars and the climate changes. La Plata is now a sort of walled Crystal Spires and Togas citynote the walls are mainly to contain the waters, but also provide cover against the roamers of the ruins of the Greater Buenos Aires that hides underneath an oppresive Empire around the control of the world sources of drinking water, after the fall of the old USA empire by his warmongery against half the world, the exhaustion of the oil and the fearsome climatic changes that made the coastal cities sunk. Ensenada is a misteriously non-sunked coastal city politically dependent on La Plata, though autonomous, where rain is omnipresent. Most of the main plot occurs in Ensenada, but the conclussion and major plot points happen in La Plata.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Katanas Are Just Better | |
| Conciencia y Voluntad / int_12a22bd8 | comment |
Katanas Are Just Better: Cautiosly averted. In the final fight Nicolás Pérez Aznar chooses a katana to fight against Franco Rocafirme, who has a longsword, but it's easily overpowered by him. This could be atributed just to the fighters over the weapons. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Conciencia y Voluntad / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Word of God 'Pablo Astoria' is a hispanicization of 'Paul Auster', a primary source of inspiration for the novel. Additionally, 'Franco' (Frank) is a Spanish word for 'direct', 'sincere', and the last name of The Generalissimo of Spain during X Xth centurynote Curiously, it is also the name of one of the illustrators. 'Rocafirme' can be translated as 'Strongrock', and the character is the embodyment of the sheer willpower without concience in this novel. Also, 'Pérez Aznar' is a real family in this world, the same family that owns the (also real world) manor in La Plata in which he lives. The character itself, Nicolás, is based in an editor and comicbook critic from Argentina, Federico Musso (his mother's name is Pérez Aznar), one of the spelling and grammar editors of the novel. Also, Anita is a popular agentinian Comic Book, of a sexy classical dancer that becomes a mutant hunter◊, published by the same editorial in which Federico Musso has worked on. The character of the novel is also a dancer (she dances tango, though), and is also sexually liberated. | |

Prison: Esteban Ruquet has been in jail and escaped a long time ago, for commiting a political murder. | |

The Ace | |
| Conciencia y Voluntad / int_b5b4b077 | comment |
The Ace: Franco Rocafirme is just like this. It's lampshaded that Augusto Dumont and Nicolás Pérez Aznar were Aces as well. And all the Eldar, in their own way. | |

Berserk Button: For Pablo Astoria, threatening or punching a girl. For Rocafirme, naming Esteban Ruquet or the failure of his revolution. | |

Battle in the Rain: Actually, two of them, Astoria vs. Homing, and Astoria vs. Rocafirme. And a shooting. And almost everything. | |

Cameo: A mysterious figure that looks a lot like Lord Morpheus in his former incarnation. He appears in a train very similar to the one in the End Of The Worlds arc. | |

Deliberately Monochrome: the illustrations are always black and white. With the only exception of the covers, that are also with a very downer palette. Even the pet cat is black, and the trenchcoat and hat of Astoria are white. | |

Used Future | |
| Conciencia y Voluntad / int_d0b95b85 | comment |
Used Future: Almost ANYTHING electronic is discarded in this future, as the main internet servers are offline and above tons of water. The other Internet part is broke by a massive hacking attack by Rocafirme and the Eldars note yes, like the tolkienian ones, since the group has named himself for the elves of LOTR. The main electric devices are reconstructions of mid '50 devices. | |

Happily Failed Suicide: Pablo Astoria puts a gun in his head only to discover that it has fake bullets. Even tough he suspected this, he was actually in suicide mood. | |

Bad Future: Most of the actual Argentina goes through another military and civilian dictatorship little after his fall. Also, this is a bad future for coastal cities. And there is a past Third World War. However, the world isn't as awful as it could be. | |

Expy: Physically, Astoria is an expy of John Constantine. But is more like a wannabe. Also, the Honky Tonk bar is a (voluntary) copy of the same bar in Get Backers, as the barman is a fan of the series. | |

Trenchcoat Brigade | |
| Conciencia y Voluntad / int_edf078c4 | comment |
Trenchcoat Brigade: Pablo Astoria is an example of this. Lousely based on John Constantine, but with his own personality, his name is a "spanishification" of Paul Auster, if you don't believe in the Death of the Author. | |
