| The Darkangel Trilogy | comment |
Speculative Fiction / Planetary Romance trilogy written by Meredith Ann Pierce in the 1980s. The backstory is that long ago, humans terraformed the Moon, but eventually things got out of their control and they returned to Earth (known as Oceanus), leaving behind a race of people who are similar to humans but adapted to live in the low-heat, low-oxygen environment. The humans who originally colonized the Moon are viewed as legendary, almost godlike figures called the Ancients.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })In the main body of the trilogy, a young slave girl named Aeriel sets out to rescue her mistress when she is kidnapped by a darkangel (a creature akin to a handsome, ruthless, winged, soul-drinking vampire). Although she soon finds that her mistress is beyond saving and she is pressed into service as a maidservant for the previous thirteen wraithlike “brides” of the darkangel, she discovers she has one year in which to stop the darkangel from claiming his fourteenth bride and destroying her land forever. But it isn’t only the darkangel at work; there are forces far beyond any mortal’s comprehension at war, and Aeriel eventually finds herself at the center of it all, complete with an ancient prophecy and a star-crossed love.Titles in the trilogy: The Darkangel A Gathering of Gargoyles The Pearl of the Soul of the WorldAdvertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

And Now You Must Marry Me | |
| The Darkangel Trilogy / int_478ae179 | comment |
And Now You Must Marry Me: The darkangel decides Aeriel is beautiful enough to warrant becoming his fourteenth and final bride, or else that it’s just not worth the trouble of kidnapping anyone else. Subverted when Aeriel goes along with it and eventually falls in love with him when he is restored to human form. Less climactically, the suzerain of Orm, who hypnotizes Aeriel into apathy to gain her consent, and then bricks her into a wall when she refuses his advances. | |

| The Darkangel Trilogy / int_b5b4b077 | comment |
The Ace: Aeriel looks up to her clever, brave, beautiful mistress Eoduin, the darkangel's thirteenth bride, as an older sister. Aeriel's habitual sense of inferiority puts her more easily under the thrall of the darkangel's glamour. | |

Adrenaline Makeover | |
| The Darkangel Trilogy / int_c0f6b6c4 | comment |
Adrenaline Makeover: Aeriel Took a Level in Badass (and hit a growth spurt) during her sojourn in the desert, and returns good-looking enough that the darkangel deigns to marry her, where he once thought her hideous. He considers it particularly attractive that she's no longer a Shrinking Violet. | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade | |

Absurdly Sharp Blade: the Edge Adamantine. It can perform surgery without spilling blood. Given the prevalence of Lost Technology, it might be Sharpened to a Single Atom. | |
