The Erebus Sequence is a Fantasy trilogy by British author Den Patrick.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The three books are: The Boy with the Porcelain Blade (2014) The Boy who Wept Blood (2015) The Girl on the Liar's Throne (2016)Landfall, the setting of the trilogy, has a culture resembling that of Italy during The Renaissance — which is where its inhabitants originally came from, though it's now isolated in a world of its own. The story revolves around Demesne, a huge castle in which power and prestige is contested by several powerful noble houses — each of which has its own function in society (military, trade, etc.) The king himself is never seen, and some doubt he exists. Commoners tend to suffer.Amidst all this are the Orfani, people of uncertain parentage who each have some form of mutation or deformity. They're supposed to serve the realm, but are widely disliked and distrusted, and tend to be thought of as tools to be kept at arm's length. Each of the three books focuses on a different Orfani character as they get tangled up in the politics of the Demesne and the drive to reform it. The protagonist of first book, Lucien, aspires to join the military-orientated noble House but gets caught up in the mystery of exactly what's going on with the King. The protagonists of the two books which follow, Dino and Anea, are friends of Lucien who have to deal with the changed situation that he created, because that the situation isn't nearly as resolved as he had hoped.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Body Horror: In addition to the sometimes unpleasant mutations that the Orfani can have, the King has transformed himself into a multi-limbed abomination. | |

The Big Bad Shuffle | |
| Erebus Sequence / int_77eeb348 | comment |
The Big Bad Shuffle: Exactly who the main villain is takes a little while to sort out: the King and the Majordomo each seem dismissive of the other's belief that they're the one in charge, and in the second book, the apparent new threats (such as the Fonteins) turn out to be manipulated by the still-alive Majordomo again. | |

Baby Factory: The answer to the question of where the Orfani come from. The sanatorio, supposedly an asylum for the mentally ill, is actually a place where the king breeds mutants with kidnapped women. | |

Acquired Poison Immunity | |
| Erebus Sequence / int_daba0e87 | comment |
Acquired Poison Immunity: This is given to someone without their knowledge; Rafaela has been secretly building up Lucien's immunity to the poison Golia uses due to the (correct) fear that it will eventually be needed. | |
