Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues is a play-by-post superhero roleplay hosted on the TV Tropes forums. Created by Stratofarius, the game is a Continuity Reboot of the previous Dawn Of A New Age thread created by GrateEscape in 2015. Previous characters and concepts return, but with a whole new coat of paint.Set in Oldport, Rhode Island, the story opens on a number of teenagers staying after school for various reasons. A power cut leads into a bizarre supernatural incident, where smokey, snake-like apparations attack the children and imbue them with superpowers. Henceforth, the teens must learn how to control their newfound powers and get to the bottom of what exactly happened to them.A quirky author whose book parallels the empowering event. A mysterious agent armed with technology to nullify their powers. Flashes of the future depicting villanous organisations and a despotic government. Time will tell how all of these tie together- assuming the children can survive until then...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Despite the fantastical threats that face them, the RP focuses on a down-to-earth examination of how receiving superpowers would affect a teenager. Real-life social issues and prejudice affect the characters, as does all the baggage that comes with being a young person still trying to understand the world. Which is not to say that it's all doom and gloom: for all that their newfound powers can be dangerous, they also open up new avenues for heroism, friendship, and fun.The roleplay can be found here. Supplementary material can be found here. | |

Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_102d3365 | comment |
Watch Where You're Going!: Distracted as they are by the weird happenings in school, Zia and Simon don't notice they're careening towards each other until it's almost too late. Zia swerves at the last second and hits the lockers instead. The two are then too distracted by the arrival of the smoke snakes to interact further. Jae is too distracted trying to get Jem out of the school that she doesn't pay attention to where she's going, and ends up colliding with Mirielle and falling onto her behind. | |

Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_10ad7cfe | comment |
Elemental Baggage: Any of the characters capable of controlling the elements seem to have a Required Secondary Power where they can create said element from nothing. The only exception thus far is Sebastian, who is, for the moment at least, restricted to controlling his own shadow. | |

Look Behind You | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_112f8ee1 | comment |
Look Behind You: Barbra causes a scene while locked in the school, only to realise that people aren't looking at her- they're looking behind her, at where supernaturally green smoke is gathering. In the future, Zia gets in an argument with Terry, only to realise that he's staring at something behind her. Something that the reader doesn't get to see before the flashforward ends. A car crashes into Daigo's monster and it's flung into the car's interior. Ciro checks on the driver when she falls out, unaware that the monster is alive and rising up behind him until the woman screams and points at it. | |

The Call Knows Where You Live: Nadine decides to keep her mouth shut about the empowerment and go on with her life. Finn proposes that, if they ignore their superpowers and let the transformed Benjy run rampant, that he'll eventually make his way to her mother's workplace and slaughter everyone there. Fortunately it doesn't come to pass, as Benjy targets a Neo-Nazi gang instead. | |

Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: Benedict tries to reason that the empowering event was all a mass hallucination. Hyeon points out the gaping hole in the wall that proves it real. Michal doesn't have a clue how they're supposed to find Benjy since he's probably hidden himself since they last saw him. Barbra immediately shows him a website article showing where Benjy is. Edward reveals at the cemetary meeting that he can create duplicates of himself, which Destiny claims is the coolest power. Then Lenore teleports in with Vivian, and Destiny is forced to admit that hers is cooler. Hyeon tells Benedict that Kwang is too dumb to find anything weird in the school just because Hyeon ordered him to. Kwang then springs up and immediately finds a trail of blood to follow. | |

Tempting Fate | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Hyeon's words before they're attacked by supernatural snakes and granted superpowers: A similar instance happens with Nadine, the night before police show up at the school: When Zia's group arrives at Falstaff in search of Crispin. Similar to the above, when Sebastian's group is recuperating at his house: Travers reassures Josephine that she won't let anything bad happen to her during finals. Soon after, it's revealed that Daigo and company have planted bombs all throughout the school. Fesxis tells Sebastian that, in order not to spook the people who've set the bomb in the school, they shouldn't set off the fire alarm. Guess what Mirielle does just a few minutes later? | |

Title Drop | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop: The title of the roleplay was first dropped when an author introduced his newest book, Dawn of a New Age, setting up a plot point for the characters to follow. Besides that, the title has been alluded to a few times; Principal Shooter referred to the students as 'builders of a new age', while Daigo has said that their powers will usher in the 'dawn of a new era'. He eventually goes the whole way and calls it the 'dawn of a new age' while fighting Harriet and Hyeon. | |

Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_1b74d23d | comment |
Milholland Relationship Moment: Michal gets himself in a tizzy when he thinks he's offended Ivan by making an ignorant remark about how he can't talk, to the point that he worries that Ivan is going to try and hurt him in payback. The reality is that Ivan was amused by Michal putting his foot in his mouth, and otherwise wasn't bothered at all. Jacob freaks out after he's rude to Irene while she's using her biomanipulation to fix his nose. He worries afterwards that she did something horrible to his body in retaliation: while she was annoyed with the way he acted, it wasn't to the degree that she'd then act maliciously. | |

When Benjy throws up some liquid for fellow bug Jenna to eat, Luna is disgusted and hides behind Rose, who in turn hides behind Sebastian. It should be noted that Rose is taller than Seb and Luna is much taller than both. | |

How Do I Shot Web? | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_21fd09a7 | comment |
How Do I Shot Web?: Jacob has to spend many hours practising to fully get a grasp of his time loop power- and even then, he's still not sure how to describe it to other people. Due to how esoteric they are, Ivan's ability to manipulate fate via media, and Mirielle's power to manipulate relationships via the strings that she sees, are something that causes them no amount of confusion. Ciro doesn't immediately grasp what his force fields are, nor how to use them in a non-instinctive manner. This isn't helped by his reluctance to engage with his powers. | |

A Shared Suffering | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_22cfc112 | comment |
A Shared Suffering: Gaining superpowers hasn't been easy for a lot of the kids. However, they've found a silver lining in that they aren't alone, and many of them have bonded with people that they'd never spoken to before (or even disliked) due to their shared issue. | |

Ordinary High-School Student: With the exception of a few students with particularly traumatic backstories or quirky personalities, much of the main cast were just regular high-school students before they were suddenly attacked and imbued with superpowers. | |

He's promptly called out on his idiocy when Nadine points out that Luna is black, and the girl that Hyeon met (Josephine) is not. | |

Archetypal Character: Crispin tries to enforce the idea that the superpowered kids fit the archetypes present in his story. It's quickly called out as bullshit since the archetypes he points out are shoehorned (Ivy isn't the Mastermind of the group, for one example) and don't cover the rest of the kids that were empowered too. | |

Mythology Gag: The Dawn of a New Age novel written by Crispin refers to events in the original DONA roleplay, such as Yes playing during the original empowering incident. Benjy is transformed into a bug monster and starts to show attraction to other non-human creatures. In the original DONA, one flashforward showed him in a relationship with a student who had been transformed into a crocodile girl a la Killer Croc. | |

Disappeared Dad | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_28cd01ca | comment |
Disappeared Dad: Due in part to the large size of the cast, many of the characters have fathers that are absent to some degree or another: Zia's father died prior to the beginning of the RP, having committed suicide when she was young. Finn's father, who's also the previous mayor of Oldport, was arrested after he was caught embezzeling funds. Finn's popularity plummeted as a result, ending with him as a social outcast. Little is known about Benjy's father, except that Amaya offered him a way to skip town after Benjy was born. Emmanuel's mother is divorced, and nothing has been said in regards to his father or where he is. Jessica was the unwanted result of a series of one-night stands. Thus, she has no idea who her father is. | |

Empty Piles of Clothing: When Amy is transformed into data, her clothes are left behind. This causes the other students to freak out when all they can find of her is her clothes and her phone. Jenna loses her clothes whenever her swarm of bugs splits apart and reforms somewhere else, leaving a pile for others to find and ponder over. A slight variant when Luna is transformed into electricity and absorbed by the Dark Dragon: her clothes all come with her, except for the parka that Ivy gave her, which is left in a little pile on the ground. | |

Hero with Bad Publicity: Many of the heroes are societal outcasts. As a result, a group of them were readily blamed when the school's auditorium was destroyed (one of them did destroy the auditorium, but it was because he lost control of his power and not because he wanted to vandalise). While this later turned out to be a set-up, it still highlighted how easily the teenagers could be mistrusted. | |

Extra-Strength Masquerade: So many weird events happen the first day after the empowerment that it wouldn't be unreasonable for the public to catch on to the existence of something strange: a warehouse of Neo-Nazis are found wrapped up in cocoons, an author is kidnapped in broad daylight by a swarm of insects, police officers are attacked by a giant bug monster that was previously reported on social media, and another monster wreaks havoc in front of Muggle witnesses. In spite of all this, the superpowered cast are still able to remain on the down low. There is an implication that some of the events are being deliberately covered up. | |

Murder by Mistake: Rhys attempts to shoot Daigo when he finds the boy attacking Harriet, but Daigo manages to evade the bullet and it instead hits Carlie, who was also trying to take Daigo down. | |

Person of Mass Destruction | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_36c94bed | comment |
Person of Mass Destruction: Ivy can create machines that are far beyond what any one person should be capable of. These spurts of genius and what they'll make are random, meaning it's entirely possible for her to accidentally create a nuke. The upper range of Zia's telepathy is fifteen miles, making it possible for her to affect, manipulate, or even kill the minds of everyone in an average-sized city. The bare bones of Vivian's power is that she can rewrite reality on a whim. In one Flashforward it's mentioned that she wiped entire cities off of the map. | |

Change the Uncomfortable Subject: Hyeon edits a costume design that Abby shows him to be more devilish. This gets him on the topic of a Korean football team, Red Devils, which for reasons unknown makes him uncomfortable enough to dismiss the costume entirely and then change the subject. | |

Properly Paranoid: During the empowering event, a small group of kids jumped straight to "smash the windows and get the hell outta the school" (with Sebastian then suggesting that they go through the vents) when, while strange things were happening, there wasn't enough evidence to justify such extreme measures. And then the smoke snakes came. | |

Double Meaning | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_3b4abb27 | comment |
Double Meaning: How Hyeon manages to convey information to Nadine without Longhorn picking up on it; 'when there's smoke, there's fire', referring to the smoke snakes that Hyeon and Nadine had encountered the previous night. Attempted by Ciro to try and make reference to the smoke snakes to Nadine while her non-powered lackeys were hanging around; the message doesn't get through, and instead they're all led to believe that Ciro is involved with drugs. | |

Blessed with Suck | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: Jenna's power transforms her into a walking mass of insects. Most people freak out at the sight of her, and eventually it causes her to have a minor breakdown. Katheryn gets turned into a sentient mass of ink. She can't talk and has limited movement, meaning she has to spend most of her time cooped up in a notebook. She isn't happy with this, and urges Finn to find a way to reverse it. Vivian's power essentially allows her to rewrite reality. While incredibly powerful, it's also unpredictable and frequently has unfavourable results. Not only that, but it causes the rest of the cast to react to her with fear. Jessica gains powers identical to the Purple Man: her skin turns purple, and secretes pheromones that she can use to control people's minds. The power gets to her head and she nearly causes a group of teenage boys to rape each other. When the other characters find out about this, they understandably react with disgust, which- combined with her new, unnatural appearance- causes Jessica a great deal of angst. Zigzagged with Benjy and Amy. Benjy's power turned him into a giant bug monster that loses his mind if he gets too emotional. Amy was turned into a form of data consciousness that can only operate within electronic devices. Both of their powers have very strong downsides, and have resulted in some angst, but for the most part the duo don't seem to be too upset with their new circumstances. | |

Superhero Speciation: No two characters have the exact same power, though there is some overlap: Simon can control plasma, which in turn lets him manipulate fire (which Michal can also do) and electricity; Josephine and Luna can also both control electricity, but Luna can turn into it whilst Josephine has the extra power of cryokinesis. Abby, Barbra and Nadine all have regenerative powers, though their methods are different: Abby has a Healing Factor that fixes up any injury, Barbra can come back from the dead with an immunity to what killed her, and Nadine can also resurrect herself, but she has to gain a completely new body to do so. | |

Morton's Fork: Jacob has this happen when Barbra tries speaking to him after the blackout. If he responds, then he's going against his mother's wishes. If he doesn't respond, then he's going against Barbra's mother's wishes. His solution is a few words to try and dissuade her from interacting further. Happens again when Ciro restrains Daigo's monster and Daigo demands that he let the monster go. Whatever Ciro does, one of them is going to attack him. The decision is rendered moot by a third option when a car flies into the scene and runs over the monster. | |

It only gets accepted because of how young the kids are. Hyeon's response to Josephine asking if he has superpowers; he stutters out a no, scoffs, casually leans against the wall, and 'sarcastically' asks if Josephine has powers. | |

Love Dodecahedron | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_4523420b | comment |
Love Dodecahedron: There's 30+ members of the cast, all of which are teenagers in high school, and so the romantic relations are everywhere and always changing (either due to circumstances or because Characterisation Marches On). To wit: Amy used to like Sebastian, but now has feelings for Finn. Rose also likes Sebastian, but he hasn't noticed. Seb used to have a crush on Jae, but it faded over time. Jae used to date Devin so that people wouldn't know she's a lesbian. They've since broken up, and now Devin is crushing on Jenna while Jae likes Ivy. Ivy, meanwhile, likes Simon, who in turn has been experiencing some interest in Mirielle. In the future Simon hooked up with Mirielle, but they broke up again due to his work with the FBI. Speaking of Mirielle, she's inspired crushes in both Benjy and Emmanuel. Michal likes Luna, Lenore, and Zia. Marko also likes Zia, and is unaware that his fellow gang members Destiny and Kev have both been sweet on him (though Kev has been moving on recently to Ivan). Zia has a Friends with Benefits relationship with Hyeon in the future, wouldn't mind having one with Nadine now, and also has a crush on her childhood friend Ciro. Ciro is unaware of her feelings, and also those of the three other girls who like him- Vivian and Tamasin, who are too shy to tell him, and Melissa, who's been eyeing him while dating Daigo. Nadine used to go out with Hyeon, and now has her eye on Josephine and Jemimah. Hyeon hasn't gotten in another relationship, though he's been jokingly flirting with Amy. He may or may not know that Jessica has taken a fancy to him (and also to Benedict), as has Luna (though she's been having some strange feelings for Nadine too). | |

Written-In Absence: Finn's player was absent for a month after having asked the Principal to shake his hand. The other characters in the scene comment on how the both of them seem to go into a trance for that time. Zia's player was pre-occupied with real life for a while, so her absense was justified as a teleporting incident gone wrong. When she returns, Zia finds herself in a stranger's home instead of Vivian's house like she intended. | |

Counting to Three: Irene slowly starts to get pissed off when the other students repeatedly interrogate her and prevent her from going home. She starts a mental countdown to ten, at the end of which she plans to use her powers on them to escape. She doesn't get that far before they're interrupted. | |

Power Perversion Potential: Jessica's power allows her to mind control others with her voice. While walking home from school, she's accosted by some boys, which she then forces to fight each other. The power and its potential very quickly get to her head, and she then tries to make them have sex with each other. That she's basically performing rape is explicitly pointed out by Zia and Ivy when she tells them, both of whom are horrified at her using her power that way. | |

Longhorn, being Longhorn, accepts it at face value and gives him the info he needs. | |

Not What It Looks Like | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_52d1f46e | comment |
Not What It Looks Like: Nadine comes across Hyeon and Benedict in a compromising position in front of the school. She makes fun of them for looking like a couple, receiving an embarrassed 'Shut up' in response. Barbra tries to convince Jacob to go along with finding Benjy, but Jacob misconstrues her intent and thinks that she's blackmailing him into following them. Upon coming across Ciro and Michal in the school, Lenore asks them about the smoke snakes that gave them their powers the previous night. Vanessa, a non-powered student, overhears this, and misconstrues it as an admission that Lenore and Ciro were smoking weed. An attempted clarification falls flat, as she's too giddy at the thought of Ciro breaking the rules to listen to them. When Michal sets himself on fire, and the other kids converge on him to try and put it out, Ivy instead turns on her heel and books it out the park. She's not actually running away, but instead looking for a bucket of water. | |

His girlfriend, Melissa, can turn into smoke. She quickly demonstrates the villainous capabilities of this by breaking into someone's car without leaving any prints. And then his second-in-command, Devin, can manipulate acid. A fittingly poisonous power for his snake-like personality. | |

Power Incontinence | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_571a3c67 | comment |
Power Incontinence: Multiple characters have been shown to have control issues in regards to their power, to the point that it's almost rarer for a character to be in complete control of themselves. Zia gets it the worst- nearly suffocating people to death when she gets too frustrated and being unable to turn off her telepathy in general. Michal is repeatedly shown to be too impulsive to control his fire power. This isn't so much of a problem when it's a lighter-sized flame, but it proves to be dangerous when he spontaneously combusts in the middle of a meeting. Jessica instinctively uses her Compelling Voice when she's angry or upset, which tends to happen often. Benjy lost control of his bug form when he was attacked by a group of Neo-Nazis. When he regained control of himself, he discovered that he'd killed them all and webbed them into cocoons. Harriet has some issues controlling the trajectory of Severance, nearly causing her to spear people multiple times. | |

Grounded Forever: The students that are implicated in the auditorium's vandalism are threatened with detention until the end of the semester. Which rings a little hollow when the end of the school year is just a week or two away- even if Shooter meant the next semester it would still mean little to Ciro, since he's 12th grade and thus about to graduate. | |

Missing Mom: While not to the same extent as the fathers, there's a notable amount of departed mothers as part of the cast's various backstories: Ciro's mother has been in and out of his life. The last he saw of her was eight or so years ago. Daigo believes his birth mother is dead, though it's ambiguous what actually happened to her. He then murdered his step mother after she abused him one too many times. Abby's mother left her and her father after the latter discovered some things about his sexuality. Katheryn's relationship with her father has defined a lot of her personality. Her mother, however, hasn't been mentioned at all. | |

Upon coming across Ciro and Michal in the school, Lenore asks them about the smoke snakes that gave them their powers the previous night. Vanessa, a non-powered student, overhears this, and misconstrues it as an admission that Lenore and Ciro were smoking weed. An attempted clarification falls flat, as she's too giddy at the thought of Ciro breaking the rules to listen to them. | |

Fear Is the Appropriate Response: While most of the characters try to help each other escape from the smoke snakes, Ivy and Simon have no patience for that and immediately turn tail and run. It happens with Ivy again when she realises that Jessica could be capable of killing her and making everyone forget about it. Immediately after saying it, she tries to make a break for it. A third instance with Ivy is when Zia tries to enroll her in a fight against Daigo's monster. She points out that her power is really not suited for combat, and then makes her getaway in Finn's car. | |

Spy Speak: Both Shooter and Benedict refer to the superpowered kids as a 'study group' while in public. Agent Travers advises Ivy and Luna to return to the classroom quickly while they try to leave. They both freak out over the idea that she's speaking code words and delivering a hidden threat to them. Ivy tries to rebuke her, but can't actually figure out a metaphor to respond with. | |

NiceJobBreakingItHero | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!: In a bid to extinguish the self-immolating Michal, Ed creates a 'fireproof' Tulpa to tackle Michal and put him out. Not only is the Tulpa not actually fireproof, but it breaks Ciro's concentration and thus gets rid of the barrier that was in the process of extinguishing the fire's oxygen supply. Another example from the same situation: Simon tries to use his heat absorption to take care of Michal's flames. The sight of it terrifies Michal, however, and causes his flames to grow even more intense. Ivan helps de-escalate a situation between Daigo and Harriet by using his power to modify Daigo's thought process. However, this leads Daigo to believe that Harriet messed with his mind, and thus he confronts her later, which leads to Devin and Carlie getting seriously injured. | |

A gender-flip happens when Luna gives Crispin a thunderous slap to stop him freaking out over Jenna's appearance. Another gender-flip when Jacob tries to insist that he can't help deal with a bomb, Lenore's response being to slap him and tell him that they're doing it regardless. | |

Bad Powers, Good People | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_86ba007a | comment |
Bad Powers, Good People: Benjy transforms into a monstrous bug creature, who can turn further into a mindless beast when he feels threatened or angry. Despite this, he still has a kind personality. Irene has the ability to manipulate flesh. In spite of her Lovecraftian superpower, she remains an Only Sane Woman who just wishes to make sense of the empowering event. Harriet gains control of a black spear which can cause hallucinations and degrade the memory of anyone it pierces. Hardly the most heroic-sounding power, but Harriet herself isn't a bad person. Sebastian has a coldly pragmatic, eldtritch spirit possessing his body that grants him the power to control shadows. Sebastian himself, however, is a Nice Guy. | |

Happens again when Ciro restrains Daigo's monster and Daigo demands that he let the monster go. Whatever Ciro does, one of them is going to attack him. The decision is rendered moot by a third option when a car flies into the scene and runs over the monster. | |

Faux Affably Evil: The Dark Dragon guard that watches over Zia in one Bad Future. He encourages her to write and makes small talk with her, but when she tries to appeal to his good nature he politely informs her of all the ways he's dreamt about killing her. | |

Double Take | |

Double Take: When Ivy first sees Jessica, she performs a physical and mental double take when she realises that the girl's skin is purple. Luna does an incredibly fast double take when she looks at their exam teacher, looks back to Ivy, and then realises that said teacher is the government agent that's been hounding them. | |

Ciro urges a civilian to get to safety before him, leaving himself vulnerable to attack from Daigo's monster. | |

Jacob skids across a pile of vomit and ends up falling into it, much to his dismay. Played for Drama when Ciro takes a tumble while on the way to save his siblings. He's so pre-occupied with their safety that he barely notices the pain from it, or that he dropped his phone when he fell (Michal picks it up to return later). | |

Odd Friendship: Ivy is a neurotic, shy Shrinking Violet. Luna is abrasive and confrontational. Their mutual love of anime and gaming led to them becoming close friends when they were children, a spark that re-ignited after they gained powers and started hanging out again. Zia is an outspoken punk, whereas Ciro is strait-laced and gentle. They became Childhood Friends after she stopped him from being bullied, and the two have been close ever since. Lenore and Vivian have a mutual love for Dungeons & Dragons, but otherwise couldn't be more different: while Lenore is extroverted and easy-going, Vivian is high-strung and awkward. | |

Dramatic Irony: Rose wishes that she could have a voice in her head that tells her what to do. She's unaware that the person she's telling this to, Sebastian, actually does have an entity in his head that he's trying to keep secret. Josephine has a friendly talk with a stranger she meets in the park. The stranger in question is Sarah Travers, who has already been revealed in a different plotline to be more nefarious than Josephine suspects. Ivy wonders whether the person who greviously hurt the nurse is someone she knows. It's already been revealed to the reader that the culprit is Simon/Dark Dragon, Ivy's crush. Rose comments that she'd love to be friends with a teleporter, unaware that Lenore, who's standing right next to her, has teleportation powers. Amy alerts Finn to the threat of a bomb at Rogers High. Finn's response is to burst out laughing- the explanation being that he'd just been trying to find a way to get the school to evacuate, and this would allow him to do so without drawing attention to himself. | |

Accidental Misnaming: Simon is anti-social, and as a result has trouble remembering people's names. Calling Mirielle 'Mary-Anne', Ivy 'Ivanna', Ciro 'Cyril', etc. In a similar instance, Ivy is only vaguely familiar with Melissa and Irene, and so mistakenly refers to them as Marissa and Eileen. Downplayed when Edward mispronounces Ciro's name during their introduction (Zee-ro instead of See-ro), and continues to do so after Ciro corrects him. | |

Make an Example of Them: How Melissa manages to convince Dark Dragon to attack the public instead of Travers- if he kills Travers, then she'll just be replaced with a different agent; if he slaughters innocents, however, then he'll be sending a message of fear out to the world at large. | |

Screaming at Squick: Jenna's appearance thoroughly disgusts Crispin, and he makes sure that everyone is aware of it. His horrified reaction causes her to experience a Heroic BSoD. Shortly afterwards Ed arrives, screams at Jenna, and throws a pillow at her, disorientating her swarm. Fortunately she's more annoyed at the unprovoked assault than traumatised. While he likes to put up a persona of being composed, Daigo quickly loses his cool and shrieks when Harriet gets snot all over him. | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Usually when a player leaves their character disappears from the story with no in-game explanation. Special mention goes to Travis Murray, who was last seen exploding into a mass of electricity. Some of the non-player characters- Heather, Leslie, Loraine, Omar, and Thelma- disappeared before they could even be properly introduced. This was to make way for a new batch of NPCs that were part of Daigo's gang. | |

Agitated Item Stomping: Jacob gets very mad at Kev for involving himself with Daigo's plot to plant fake bombs around the school, and lets out his anger by trapping Kev in a time loop and then stomping on a nearby alarm clock. | |

Cassandra Truth | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_cf92fea8 | comment |
Cassandra Truth: One of the reasons why the students don't immediately tell the adults about the empowering event: who would believe them about magical music and deadly smoke snakes when the adults had been there and not seen any of it? Rose banks on this trope when explaining why they should use giant bug Benjy as a distraction: even if the cops did try and tell anyone about it, no one would believe them. Crispin follows the same logic when he justifies why the government hasn't come for him after he exposed the 'truth' about them: he thinks they haven't hunted him down because it'd be a waste of effort, since no-one would believe him anyway. The principal finds Irene carting around the injured school nurse. No matter how much she tries to explain herself, he refuses to believe that she wasn't responsible for hurting the nurse. | |

That Came Out Wrong: Ciro tries to advise Michal on controlling his power, only to realise with embarrassment that his advice sounds like it's referring to something more salacious. Since Harriet has nowhere to stay for the night, Sebastian offers to shack her up in his house. His wording causes her to worry that he'll do something 'strange' to her, much to the amusement of his friends. | |

Simon and Mirielle are shown in one flashforward to have gotten together in the future.

Vanessa asks Lenore to pass along the number for her drug dealer, since whatever she's taking makes her look fantastic. Michal jokes afterward that Vanessa might be 'in lesbians with her.' | |

At one point there's an emergency at Eustis Avenue and Ciro runs there to help out. Ivan isn't as aware of what's happening, but follows Ciro out of curiosity. This same event repeats later that night, when Ivy sprints off to find water for a fire and Jem appears from nowhere to curiously give chase. Jem and Ivan are also both physically imposing, frightening Ivy and Ciro. | |

Similarly, most of the parents and teachers are on a last name basis with the teenage cast. | |

Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: In the previous DONA thread, the teenagers explicitly received their powers from comic book characters. While this is no longer the case, some of the teenagers that were carried over from the last thread still have the powers they inherited from comic books: Zia has Professer Xavier's telepathy, Ciro has Susan Storm's invisibility and force fields, Jessica has Purple Man's mind-control pheromones, and Barbra has Doomsday's adaptive regeneration. Luna is an odd case in that she had Black Adam's powers in the original thread, but here she only maintained the ability to control and turn into electricity. Also, while not from the old thread, Lenore's powers are directly based on Nightcrawler and Emmanuel's super speed is directly compared to The Flash. Daigo is explicitly based off of Dio from Jojos Bizarre Adventure, boasting the same appearance, fashion sense, vampiric powers, familial circumstances, and (before it was retconned) fascination with an Egyptian aesthetic. This has lessened since he was taken over by the GM and developed in a different direction. Finn's appearance, and the chess motif surrounding him, are directly inspired by Battler Ushiromiya. Most of the teachers have their names and appearances derived from comic book writers, e.g. Principal Jim Shooter, Mr. Lieber. | |

Four Lines, All Waiting | |
Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues / Role Play / int_e8dcd1c0 | comment |
Four Lines, All Waiting: The cast is large and the GM usually offers multiple plots for them to follow if they choose. This results in many non-connected plots happening at the same time. For example, during the first day after the empowering event: one group went to investigate a giant bug sighting at the warehouse district; another group were called to the auditorium to explain the damages there; a third group went to hunt down an author that they believed could explain what was happening; a fourth group met in the park and decided to get high while planning what to do about the smoke snakes; a fifth group formed after Daigo and his gang created a monster and set it loose on the public; and a sixth group witnessed the nurse's office getting blown up. Some plots connected, some characters passed from one group to the other, and then some had no relation to each other at all. | |

April Fools' Day: For April 1st of 2018 there's a player-supplied Flashforward where Ivy and Luna are the only remaining survivors after they kill the Big Bad. They then realise that they're in an April Fools joke, and things resume as normal. The April Fools post for 2019 features a flashforward that seems serious at first, until Ivy plays a particular song. | |

Digging Yourself Deeper: When Emmanuel's mother finds him eating cookies, Mirielle informs her that he hadn't paid for them. His mother then tears into him for breaking his diet, immediately making Mirielle feel guilty. She tries to help him by saying that it was probably just stress from the night before... leading Ms. Vincent to criticise her son even more for not telling her what happened and stress-eating instead. Eventually Mirielle makes up an excuse to drag herself and Emmanuel out of the confrontation. | |

Accidental Murder | |

Accidental Murder: Zia's inability to control her telepathy nearly leads to her murdering Jessica and Ivy via a mental chokehold. Thankfully subverted when she was able to regain control at the last second, though the incident still shook her. Upon first discovering his vampiric abilities, Daigo accidentally murdered a man who was beating his wife. The 'accidental' part is somewhat questionable. In the lead up to the finals, Jacob accidentally uses his time powers to rewind a screwdriver into Barbra, killing her. Fortunately her power is immortality, but the incident still takes a great mental toll on him. | |
