Bad Moon Rising | comment |
When the epic struggle is just around the corner, ominous portents are going to come out of the woodwork. Well, what portent more ominous than the heavens themselves? A blood-red celestial body that wasn't there yesterday, without exception, means things are about to take a nasty turn. If the Bad Moon is itself the threat, as in a Colony Drop or similar, you'll most likely be able to prevent it. If the star-gazers are getting a light show Because Destiny Says So — yeah, people are going to bleed. This portent has its roots in the old myth about "blood on the moon," how a reddish ring around the moon was a sign of bad things to come and also in the myths about comets and other celestial movements being portents, often of death, war or plague. It is in fact caused by the very real astronomical event known as a Lunar Eclipse (the moon passes directly behind the Earth and into its shadow). See Lunacy for when the moon is actually the trigger of events on Earth. This is commonly, but not necessarily, a Weird Moon. Closely related to Red Sky, Take Warning. See Comet of Doom when the bad thing in the sky is an oncoming comet. A subtrope of Alien Sky and Portent of Doom. See also The Stars Are Going Out and When the Planets Align. Not to be confused with Melancholy Moon. Also has nothing to do with characters expressing contempt or displeasure or immaturity by exposing their buttocks. Compare Ominous Clouds. |

The "Star of Destruction" of legend in Dark Chronicle (as seen in the game's American logo) is actually the Blue Moon, which was enchanted by the Ancients to drop onto whoever gathered all three Atlamillia Stones together. Presumably to keep said person from having too much power and growing corrupt, but it makes no distinction between would-be gods and innocent people. It actually does fall upon the world at the end of the game, but Sirus comes to his senses and redeems himself by casting it out of existence. From that point on, and for the remainder of the game, there is only one moon in the sky. | |

Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have the Blood Moon, said to be the time when Calamity Ganon's/Ganondorf's powers reach their peak. The moon will turn bigger and red, a reddish-purple miasma will envelop the land, any monsters you're fighting will be healed,note This, incidentally, includes bosses... including (in BotW) Calamity Ganon itself, prior to a game patch that turned off the effects of a Blood Moon while in Hyrule Castle and defeated monsters will come back to life. The Blood Moon appears based on a hidden timer independent of normal moon phasesnote specifically it is time spent in active gameplay, meaning that passing time at a campfire or idling in menus or dialogue will not make a Blood Moon happen faster, although "panic moons", as called by fans, can also appear at any time including daytime to fix certain errors like running out of memory. | |

Though Morrslieb was destroyed by the Skaven during the End Times, a similar entity known only as the Bad Moon is worshipped by the Gloomspite Gitz, an alliance of trolls, giants and goblins, in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. It travels randomly between realms, causing darkness and madness wherever it appears. The Gloomspite have several theories about its origin, ranging from it being an egg, to it being an accidental creation of Gorkamorka, but no one, not even Sigmar, knows its origins for certain. | |

The moon would turn red as rampaging shadow enemies wreck havoc on the island.

In The Raven, the tenth installment of the Dark Tales series, this is seen early in the game for a short time. By interacting with a fountain on the street opposite the house where the detectives are to meet their client, the player causes the moon to turn briefly to blood — thereby allowing them to see just how very disturbing their surroundings really are. | |

In Bloodborne, you, as a Hunter, are engaged in what is known as "The Hunt," a night during which all able-bodied men walk the streets looking for beasts to kill. Of course, they themselves are in the early stages of infection and are turning to beasts as well. All the while an orange-red moon hangs above, casting an eerie, almost sunset-like light upon the city of Yharnam. (It's also in front of the clouds somehow.) But after a certain point in the game, after you kill Rom the Vacuous Spider, the Red Moon descends and the world as you know it begins to change drastically. And then there's the true final boss... The Moon Presence, who descends upon the Hunter's Dream, seemingly from the Moon. | |

Naruto: The moon is red on Itachi's Mental World. The moon is shown to be red without explanation during several important scenes, such as during Tobi's backstory. The moon not only turns red, but forms a 3-rowed Rinne-Sharingan when the Infinite Tsukoyumi is activated. There's only just enough time for everyone to take notice before the moon gives off a blinding flash that puts everyone around the world to a genjutsu sleep. |

One of these exists in Paraiso Street's Ptiaumzcuaro, the land of the dead. It's called a "gift" from the Golden for the dead who missed the real moon. Given the obviously false and unsettling nature of it, it serves more as a reminder of the Golden's absolute power over the dead. | |

A variation of this trope is basically the plot of Touhou Eiyashou ~ Imperishable Night. The Big Bad seals off the moon on the night of the Harvest Moon Festival and replaces it with an illusion of an "old fashioned moon" that's "old and worn" which disconcerts the relevant youkai half of the player team enough for them to decide to stop the night until they can fix it (hence the title). It even fulfills this trope at Stage 4, after you fight off the midboss (which is either Reimu or Marisa, annoyed that the youkai partner's actually gone as far as stopping the night). The background turns to a reddish hue, and when the player reaches the boss, the moon is red. Not like you'll see it through the danmaku and Spell Card backgrounds, though. It should also be noted that it's in this stage that the game really ramps up the difficulty, especially on the jump to Normal. |

There are some seriously unsettling things going on with the moon in The Kingkiller Chronicle. For one thing, its synodic period is 72 days, so it goes through its phases more slowly. More significantly, when part of the moon is not in the sky, it quite literally vanishes because it's doing double duty as the moon in the realm of Fae. According to legend, this was caused by a man trapping part of the moon's True Name in a box. During a full moon, The Fair Folk can cross over to the mortal world, and on a moonless night, mortals might get pulled into Fae. | |

Played with in A.I.: Artificial Intelligence; during the second act, the leaders of the Flesh Fair hunt for unlicensed robots using a hot air balloon disguised to look like the moon. Apparently, they've been doing so long enough for the "Old Iron" to make up a warning cry for when the Moon Balloon appears above them: "Moon on the rise!" | |

Mazinger: In the Mazinger Z sequel UFO Robo Grendizer, the Moon becoming red was a sign of the Vegan Alliance was getting ready another attack—and the main characters eventually learnt to watch for that. One of the manga versions — penned by Gosaku Ota — reinforced that: in the first pages a red skull appeared on the Moon's surface (a sign of the Vegans had come) — and Duke felt upset when he saw it, and wondered if that was a bad omen. | |

Skyrim: The Bloodmoon returns for Hircine's Daedric quest. Why is a bit uncertain, since in Bloodmoon it was a prophetic sign, while in Skyrim you just randomly see it while in a specific location during Hircine's quest. The player character him/herself can create a similar phenomenon in the Dawnguard DLC - but with the sun rather than the moon. By using Auriel's Bow to fire a bloodcursed arrow at the sun, they can turn the sun to blood and cause the entire landscape to be washed in shades of red and black. |

Seen in Persona 3, where during the Dark Hour (an extra hour between 11:59 and midnight that most people don't experience) the moon has a Sickly Green Glow as well as multiple characters explaining how ominous it feels. Moreover, every full moon is when the bosses appear (and the plot moves). The Big Bad, Nyx, is revealed to be the Moon during the Dark Hour, which proceeds to collapse against the earth in the game, bringing about The End of the World as We Know It. | |

The surreal, but well-received American Dad! episode "Rapture's Delight" depicts Earth 7 years after The Rapture. It begins with a Scenery Gorn shot, camera slowly panning up, and if you look into the night sky, the moon has been cleaved in half. That raises many questions, scientific and otherwise, but that isn't the focus of the episode. The broken moon wasn't a symbol of events to come, but a casualty of the events that took part during those seven years. | |

The final battle in Touhou Koumakyou ~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil takes place with the aforementioned blood-red moon in the background. Kind of makes sense seeing as the battle is against the titular Scarlet Devil, Remilia, who claims to be descended from Vlad himself. On the hardest difficulty, the final attack is considered one of the hardest in the entire series to 'capture' (defeating the spellcard without dying or bombing). A variation of this trope is basically the plot of Touhou Eiyashou ~ Imperishable Night. The Big Bad seals off the moon on the night of the Harvest Moon Festival and replaces it with an illusion of an "old fashioned moon" that's "old and worn" which disconcerts the relevant youkai half of the player team enough for them to decide to stop the night until they can fix it (hence the title). It even fulfills this trope at Stage 4, after you fight off the midboss (which is either Reimu or Marisa, annoyed that the youkai partner's actually gone as far as stopping the night). The background turns to a reddish hue, and when the player reaches the boss, the moon is red. Not like you'll see it through the danmaku and Spell Card backgrounds, though. It should also be noted that it's in this stage that the game really ramps up the difficulty, especially on the jump to Normal. Then Legacy of Lunatic Kingdom completely reverses the situation when you go to the moon, and see a Bad Earth Rising, with the once-blue planet appearing blood-red in the lunar sky and radiating waves of energy. |

In Pathfinder, the Boneyard has Groetus, a god taking the form of a small moon in the shape of a scowling skull, which is also the god's own realm at the same time. Its size is subjective, varying wildly in size from person to person. Groetus himself awaits the last living thing to die, so as to bring about the end of the Boneyard, and seemingly all reality with it. | |

In Dungeons & Dragons: Zig-zagged in Dragonlance. The red moon Lunitari is associated with Neutral magic rather than Evil; Nuitari, the "Evil magic" moon, is black and sheds a black light seen only by beings that use such dark magic. Ravenloft's domain of Sithicus has only the black moon Nuitari in its night skies, illustrating the fact that it is a Pocket Dimension created for Lord Soth, an undead wielder of Evil magic from Dragonlance. In the Elder Evils book, as the Hulks of Zoretha begin to awaken, the moon gains an ever-more intense red tint, which corresponds with every living thing on the planet slowly going Ax-Crazy with rage. When the moon is completely blood-red, the Hulks are active again. Also in Elder Evils, the Atropus questline first manifests with the appearance of a new celestial body, which steadily grows to the size of a moon: the massive undead planetoid Atropus itself. Meanwhile, its approach sparks a Zombie Apocalypse on the destination planet. |

Hilari Bell's Knight and Rogue Series has an interesting example. Even though the series is strongly based in fantasy, the planet they're on has two moons: one is gold, the other is green. Their cycles directly effect the severity of the natural, chaotic, and dangerous magic that is found in a lot of animals and plants our heroes are unfortunate enough to stumble upon. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The Weird Moon from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is a case of a Bad Moon Falling. Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have the Blood Moon, said to be the time when Calamity Ganon's/Ganondorf's powers reach their peak. The moon will turn bigger and red, a reddish-purple miasma will envelop the land, any monsters you're fighting will be healed,note This, incidentally, includes bosses... including (in BotW) Calamity Ganon itself, prior to a game patch that turned off the effects of a Blood Moon while in Hyrule Castle and defeated monsters will come back to life. The Blood Moon appears based on a hidden timer independent of normal moon phasesnote specifically it is time spent in active gameplay, meaning that passing time at a campfire or idling in menus or dialogue will not make a Blood Moon happen faster, although "panic moons", as called by fans, can also appear at any time including daytime to fix certain errors like running out of memory. |

In Dies Irae as part of Wilhelm Ehrenburg's Creation Figment, Der Rosenkavalier Schwarzwald, he creates a sealed off space that is crowned by a blood red moon which not only grants him further vampiric abilities but also causes a widespread Life Drain effect on everything caught within the field of effect. And should his fake moon overlay the real moon then the effect will be even more powerful. And just to make things worse for anyone trapped inside, the fake moon also allows him to spread his blood-soaked rose garden which constantly tries to skewer his victims. | |

Darker than Black: Near the end of the second season the moon—having vanished years ago when an Alien Sky replaced the real one—reappears, large and red. According to prophecy, shit's supposed to hit the fan when the moon turns full. The final episode reveals that the "moon" isn't a moon at all but rather an entire second Earth created through a grand-scale display of Shion's Contractor ability to copy objects. The second Earth gradually recedes and disappears from the sky and is implied to take the original Earth's place on the other side of the Gate's veil. |

Subverted in Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, where the Red Moon causes the souls of the prinnies who have paid for their sins to be reincarnated.

The Elder Scrolls In the series' lore, the "Necromancer's Moon" is a phenomenon that occurs when the "plane" of Mannimarco, the God of Worms, eclipses that of Arkay, the Aedric Divine of Life and Death. During this time, the light of the moon can transform standard Grand Soul Gems into Black Soul Gems, capable of trapping sapient souls which are normally under Arkay's protection. The titular moon from the Morrowind expansion Bloodmoon. Nirn's smaller moon, Secunda, turns blood red, signaling that it is time for Hircine (the Daedric Prince of the Hunt) to perform his hunt on Mundus. Skyrim: The Bloodmoon returns for Hircine's Daedric quest. Why is a bit uncertain, since in Bloodmoon it was a prophetic sign, while in Skyrim you just randomly see it while in a specific location during Hircine's quest. The player character him/herself can create a similar phenomenon in the Dawnguard DLC - but with the sun rather than the moon. By using Auriel's Bow to fire a bloodcursed arrow at the sun, they can turn the sun to blood and cause the entire landscape to be washed in shades of red and black. |

One of the many hallmarks of Revelation: complete with the stars falling from the heavens. Jesus mentioned that in advance of His return, "The sun will be darkened and the moon will become blood red." It's noteworthy that a total lunar eclipse makes the moon appear blood red. What's also interesting about this is that a lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is perfectly aligned between the Sun and the Moon, whereas a solar eclipse happens when the Moon is between Earth and the Sun. The implication here seems to be that both will happen at the same time, which should be physically impossible. |

Big City Greens has the Halloween blood moon, which rises in a random amount of years. According to Gramma Alice, it ignites a curse that has been in many farmer generations: once the moon rises, it turns the farm animals into man-eating zombies and causes the Greens to stay in their house, which ruins their first Halloween in the city. | |

Final Fantasy Meteor in Final Fantasy VII will basically destroy the world. Final Fantasy IV: The After Years begins with the arrival of the True Moon. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates has a plot that centers around its blood red moon and how it relates to the game world. In fact, the trope name is the game's Tag Line. Final Fantasy VIII has the "Lunar Cry" which destroyed the Centra civilization the last time it occurred. The moon is inhabited by the game's monsters, and when the Cry occurs they all begin massing together causing the moon to look like a giant bloodshot eye. Then a teardrop like amalgamation is formed and falls to the planet where they spread devastation. There's a comet in the sky that's talked about in the Crystal War in Final Fantasy XI. Considering you go back in time to there in the Wings of The Goddess expansion, it's guaranteed it's a plot point... possibly. Story isn't done yet. Turns out it's not a comet. It's the avatar Atomos devouring the time line Hydaelyn, the world of Final Fantasy XIV, had two moons, the smaller of which, Dalamud, was difficult to see until near the end of the original version of the game, when it got bigger and redder during the descent of this artificial satellite imprisoning an ancient and very angry dragon. |

At the end of the penultimate book of Gods and Warriors, the Moon turns red, and an Egyptian wisewoman states it to foretell the Crows' bloody conquest of all of Akea with the invincibility the dagger of Koronos grants them. When we get back to Akea in the final book three months later, that's exactly what the Crows have been doing. | |

Critical Role: The world of Exandria has two moons, one named Catha, which is white and similar to Earth's moon, and another named Ruidus, which is small and red. Ruidus has no typical lunar cycle, and sometimes disapears from the sky entirely. However, when Ruidus' light flares from a dull maroon to a bright crimson, it is said to be a sign of ill omen, and those that are born under this light are believed to be cursed to live a life of turmoil and misfortune. | |

Warhammer: The warpstone moon Morrslieb is at its brightest on Geheimnisnacht, when there is a Thin Dimensional Barrier between the Material World and Chaos. It's also unnaturally bright during Chaos invasions. A "Bad Moon" is the symbol of certain greenskins in Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000. Who would be considered people you'd not want to have around by most people who aren't them (and 40K's are considered obnoxious rich assholes by other orks). Though Morrslieb was destroyed by the Skaven during the End Times, a similar entity known only as the Bad Moon is worshipped by the Gloomspite Gitz, an alliance of trolls, giants and goblins, in Warhammer: Age of Sigmar. It travels randomly between realms, causing darkness and madness wherever it appears. The Gloomspite have several theories about its origin, ranging from it being an egg, to it being an accidental creation of Gorkamorka, but no one, not even Sigmar, knows its origins for certain. |

If the Moon ever turns red in the Nasuverse, bad things are probably going to happen. This is because a red Moon is usually a sign that Crimson Moon Brunestud (aka the original vampire, the TYPE-Moon, the Lunar Ultimate One) is up to something big, and it is very hostile to humanity. According to some material in Tsukihime, the next time this will happen is in roughly 1,000 years. Occasionally, vampires will perceive the Moon as red even when it's not, due to their vampiric instincts acting up. | |

In Ōkami, this trope signifies the arrival of both Orochi and Ninetails. The full moon signifies the beginning of Orochi's ritual of sacrifice. A blood-red moon, complete with nine dark lines, replaces the regular one after Queen Himiko is killed by Ninetails. It stays in the sky until you defeat the fox. And then there is the solar eclipse, which signifies the rising of Yami, the Lord of Darkness, and the concurrent waning of Amaterasu's solar power. (Which, fortunately, is only an issue during the very last battle. You don't suffer any gameplay weakness during the eclipse.) | |

Amphibia’s moon is normally red, but inverts this trope by giving us a blue moon, which initiates the Blood Moon Shut-In where the frogs have to lock themselves inside all night because anyone who looks at it will turn them into a hideous beast (although it's left unclear if this is actually canon due to the nature of the episode). However, this is played straight when the Grand Finale reveals that the moon is actually one of the Core's technological creations that it can take control of, which it does in an attempt to destroy Amphibia after the invasion of Earth is stopped. |

The moon is inhabited by the game's monsters, and when the Cry occurs they all begin massing together causing the moon to look like a giant bloodshot eye. Then a teardrop like amalgamation is formed and falls to the planet where they spread devastation. | |

In The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant, Drool Rockworm uses the Staff of Law to corrupt the moon, turning it blood red. This is a bit of a subversion, since the characters point out that turning the moon red doesn't actually do anything and is probably a way for Lord Foul, the real villain, to keep Drool distracted and happy while Foul works his Evil Plan. On the other hand, the trope is later played straight when Lord Foul himself turns the moon emerald green; Foul being a Chessmaster par excellence, he must see some kind of value in this maneuver, probably for its effect on the morale of Revelstone. | |

The ElfQuest "Siege at Blue Mountain" arc began in 1986, the same year Halley's Comet reappeared, so not surprisingly there's a comet sighted in the comic (hey, rhyming alliteration!) - and equally unsurprisingly there are major upheavals ahead. Again, something of a no-brainer, because if there weren't there'd be no plot. The comet was thrown in because Richard Pini loves astronomy (he's designed planaterium shows), and was WAY disappointed with that appearance of Halley's, so they put a cool one in the book for his Avatar (Skywise). | |

Destroy the Godmodder: During the Eclipse, the sun turned red and the moon broke into pieces, falling towards GodCraft. The Eclipse itself would be described as causing the sun and moon to fight, so it wasn't that far off. | |

Zig-zagged in Dragonlance. The red moon Lunitari is associated with Neutral magic rather than Evil; Nuitari, the "Evil magic" moon, is black and sheds a black light seen only by beings that use such dark magic. | |

In Hellsing, there is almost always a blood moon when there is a plot point, such as the night Seras Victoria was transformed into a vampire or when Walter informed Alucard that he would be heading to Brazil. | |

Terraria has the "Blood Moon" event, which involves the sky turning red, and enemies spawning twice as often as they'd usually do. Zombies can also break open doors during this night. There's also the normal full moon that causes werewolves to spawn instead of zombies if the world is in hardmode. When the Pumpkin Moon and Frost Moon armies attack, the moon get replaced by a Jack-o-Lantern and a snowman's head, respectively. They're way scarier than it sounds. Luckily for you, they only rise when you summon them using their special items. |
