| Infernal (Video Game) | comment |
Infernal is a Third-Person Shooter developed by Metropolis Software, published by Playlogic, and distributed by Eidos. It was released on PC in 2007, then ported to Xbox 360 in 2009.In the world of Infernal, both Heaven and Hell are represented on Earth by their own militant organisations - EtherLight for the former, and the Abyss for the latter. The game follows a character named Ryan Lennox, who used to be an angel with EtherLight but was sacked for what's implied to have been excessive snarkiness, insubordination, and general loose-cannon-ism. Lennox promptly finds that his former employers, not content to sack him, are now trying to kill him, and he soon after accepts a job offer from the competition. The rest of the game sees Lennox chasing after a big, secret, increasingly sinister-looking project being implemented by EtherLight, while knowing perfectly well that his new boss is unlikely to have beneficent motives for wanting to get hold of it either. | |

Man of Wealth and Taste | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_135d58f9 | comment |
Man of Wealth and Taste: Lucius Black, head of Hell's forces on Earth, is pretty sharply dressed, although it isn't his whole image (the dreadlocks probably don't fit). The intention seems to be to combine this trope with Scary Black Man and maybe Borrowin' Samedi. | |

Conflicting Loyalty | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_14c791fb | comment |
Conflicting Loyalty: Lt. Barbara Mitchell, an EtherLight member and a friend of Lennox, is with Lennox at a bar when the EtherLight ambush occurs. She seems to have been ordered to kill Lennox as part of it, but after briefly pointing a gun at him, tells him to run. This conflicting loyalty lingers - she doesn't like what EtherLight is up to, but isn't keen on Lennox's association with the Abyss, either, wondering if she can still trust him now that he's all demon-y. In the end, she sides with Lennox, although there's a bit of Double Agent confusion before that's clear. | |

Heal Thyself | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_17761744 | comment |
Heal Thyself: Lennox, when in possession of demonic powers, is able to replenish his health by eating the souls of dead people. The game doesn't go into detail about what this means for the dead people, although it's to be presumed they'd rather it didn't happen. Once or twice, the game sets up situations where Lennox could do with a health boost and there are a few cowering non-combatants conveniently nearby - it's up to the player whether he kills them for their souls or soldiers on. | |

A Father to His Men: Commander/Admiral (usage differs) Jones seems to want revenge against Lennox for the crew killed aboard the HMS Liberty. A villainous version, since the casualties in question were incurred when Lennox was breaking out of a torture room. | |

Death from Above: In the final level, Lucius Black makes it rain meteors, creating a hole in the wall so that Lennox can get inside EtherLight's satellite control center (and also doing a fair amount of damage to said center in the process). | |

Locked Out of the Fight | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_1c9e9215 | comment |
Locked Out of the Fight: Barbara doesn't take part in either of the two boss fights at the end. Before the one with Guisez, she gets locked out of the room by a forcefield of some sort. Before the one with Black, she gets knocked out by him when she tries to wrestle him away from the control panel. Lennox is therefore left to do it by himself. | |

Total Eclipse of the Plot: A special once-a-millennium eclipse is supposed to briefly obscure the Creator's view of the mortal world.

Custom Uniform of Sexy: Barbara Mitchell and Elena Zubrov, both members of EtherLight, wear their own distinctive outfits - Barbara has a sort of two-layered tank top, while Elena has some sort of blue catsuit. They're both EtherLight-branded, but they don't match other EtherLight personnel you see. | |

Church Militant | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_2139c878 | comment |
Church Militant: EtherLight isn't the church, but seems either overlap with it or take stylistic cues from it sometimes. It's most noticeable in the first level, the Hochtempelberg monastery (which is basically a medieval-style monastery with high-tech touches and guards who look like monks). More elite EtherLight components have a more military theme, however. | |

Superpowered Evil Side: The premise of the game is basically an ex-angel getting one of these and fighting his former employers. The extent to which it may alter his personality is left a bit vague - Barbara, who's still an angel, believes that Lennox is too keen on his new destructive powers, but it's not made clear whether she's right (and if so, whether it's an insidious effect of the demonic powers themselves or just a psychological thing. | |

You Are Too Late: When Lennox defeats Professor Wolf, Wolf tells him that the free-will-negating machine thing he built - his crowning glory - is both finished and somewhere else, meaning that Lennox cannot stop its activation.

| Infernal (Video Game) / int_51a485d1 | comment |
Brought Down to Badass: Lennox is in this position three times. At the start of the game, he has lost his angelic powers as a result of being fired. Later, Lucius Black revokes Lennox's new demonic powers when Lennox appears to have failed and has been questioning orders, but is persuaded to return them on the basis that they need each other. Finally, Black takes the powers back when he and Lennox fight in the final boss battle. Lennox is still quite able to shoot a gun, however. | |

Dating Catwoman: The banter between Lennox and one of EtherLight's people, Major Elena Zubrov, is often somewhat flirty, but that's just because Lennox is being impertinent and Elena is playing along. There's no real indication of actual romance, and it certainly doesn't turn into anything (given that Lennox eventually kills her and eats her soul). | |

Puzzle Boss: Most bosses require using some trick in order for them to be harmed.

Black-and-Gray Morality or Evil Versus Evil: The conflict between EtherLight (at least, General Guisez's version of it) and the Abyss would be one or the other, depending on whether or not you want to give Guisez partial credit for at least having good intentions. The Abyss may also seem gray up until the point where Lucius starts ranting about ultimate power. | |

Balance Between Good and Evil | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_a284511d | comment |
Balance Between Good and Evil: The introduction in the manual states that Lennox is hired to "restore the balance between Good and Evil", and although the concept of balance isn't made too explicit in the actual game, that's more or less how things end up - Lennox's actions do indeed prevent either side from using Wolf's machine (which is the only course that leaves humanity free). | |

Shielded Core Boss | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_aa42f179 | comment |
Shielded Core Boss: Both Wolf and Guisez initially sit behind forcefields while letting minions do the work. If you want to be able to hit them directly, you have to first take out some generators. | |

Humans Kill Wantonly | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_ae4e7de5 | comment |
Humans Kill Wantonly: Lucius Black seems to have this view of mortals, telling Lennox that "the most ingenious inventions of mankind were devised for the sole purpose of killing people more quickly". Given his position, it isn't necessarily a criticism. | |

No OSHA Compliance | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_b47d95be | comment |
No OSHA Compliance: Since two of the five levels are industrial sites (a refinery and a steelworks, respectively), you naturally get a bit of this. Some of it's justified, though - a lot of the damage appears to be intentional attempts to slow Lennox down by the staff. The bit where Lennox and a miniboss use machines to fire logs at each other in a sort of duel is probably the most dangerous it gets, and that's their own fault. | |

Left for Dead | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_b64b1fc1 | comment |
Left for Dead: When General Guisez snipes Lennox at the steelworks rail depot, he assumes Lennox to be dead and leaves. In fact, Lennox survives - though HP to One cutscene attack requires finding some health replenishment. | |

Mission Control | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_bebf0356 | comment |
Mission Control: Lucius Black of the Abyss provides this service to Lennox once Lennox has signed up. Rather grudgingly, though. A lot of the time he's just complaining that Lennox isn't delivering results. He also doesn't have much patience in explaining things, especially when Lennox has been flippant about it - when Lennox asks for a recap of something he was uninterested in earlier, Black just says "You should have paid attention" and hangs up. | |

Double Agent | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_c2ab0eaf | comment |
Double Agent: There's some uncertainty for a while as to whose side Barbara Mitchell is on. She's part of EtherLight, but friends with Lennox (who's now working for the opposition), and gives both of them the impression that she's on their side. She appears to be feeding Lennox information, but then is (unsuccessfully) insistent that Lennox should hand an electronic whatsit over to her without waiting for questions, and when Lennox is later captured, she is congratulated for tricking him. Then she helps him escape... but declines to join him, claiming that she can be of more use pretending to be loyal to EtherLight. It's only when a soldier catches her transmitting to Lennox, and Lennox subsequently rescues her, that she makes her allegiance (with Lennox) clear to everyone. | |

Addictive Magic | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_d69dea33 | comment |
Addictive Magic: Barbara seems to think that Lennox is becoming addicted to the demonic powers he receives from the Abyss, either because it's inherently corrupting or because he just likes the power. Lennox does seem pretty keen to get the powers back once he's lost them, but whether there really is an addiction or whether it's just practicality isn't stated outright. | |

The Evils of Free Will: This is the motivation of one of the two end bosses, General Carlos Guisez. Basically, he's an angel who's trying to "fix" a design flaw in humanity while God isn't looking. | |

Mind-Control Device: Wolf's invention is supposed to be able to be able to subtly mind-control the whole world by broadcasting to ordinary media devices like televisions and radios. General Guisez wants to use it to eliminate the The Evils of Free Will, while Lucius Black just wants to Take Over the World. | |

Regenerating Mana | |
| Infernal (Video Game) / int_e49a7b31 | comment |
Regenerating Mana: Some places have demonic auras which allow Lennox to regenerate his mana. Some other places, like churches, have angelic auras which drain him. Some bad guys use this to their advantage - there's one boss who uses lights to create an angelic aura, which leaves Lennox with too little mana to break through the boss's barriers. In that particular case, Lennox can shoot out the lights to re-enable his mana regeneration. | |

Light Is Not Good: EtherLight uses a lot of white, pale grey, and shiny blue, but is the antagonist for most of the game. Not everyone working for them is evil, but they're certainly not all good. | |
