Nomad of Nowhere is a 2D Western-Fantasy animated web series from Rooster Teeth, created by Georden Whitman and directed by Jordan Cwierz, the latter of whom took on the role of showrunner following Witman's departure from the studio.The series tells the story of the titular nomad, an infamous magic user with no name that has gone unseen for over a century, with only legends of his great and terrible powers being known. As such, no one is sure if the Bounty Hunter Toth and her crew, the Dandy Lions, are on a wild goose chase or not... at least until Skout, Toth's loyal spittoon girl and admirer, casually stumbles across him in a bramble forest. And what she finds is not a scary monster, but a sad and lonely Cute Mute who only wishes to use his ability to animate inanimate objects to make friends. Thus begins a journey across the desolate wastelands of Nowhere, as the Nomad tries to recollect his past and find companionship, Toth and other bounty hunters endeavor to capture him for their own purposes, and Skout comes to terms with exactly what side of this whole mess she wants to be on.The show premiered in March 2018, with the first season ending in September that same year. A second season was put into production, with script writing getting "pretty far along", before being halted due to Rooster Teeth's restructuring in the wake of the WarnerMedia merger, and writing and animation staff were moved to other projects at RT such as RWBY. In September 2020, Cwierz casually name-dropped Nomad as one of several shows that the company was looking to find a production partner for. | |

Dying Race | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_1044a759 | comment |
Dying Race: The Y'dala. They may have longer lifespans than humans, but they need magic to survive. Thanks to El Rey taking most of Nowhere's magic for himself, there is little left for them. Hence why Toth is so desperate to find the Nomad. If she can bring him to Don Paragon, then he might agree to help Toth's people obtain some magic. | |

Gaia's Lament | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_13a6b7ef | comment |
Gaia's Lament: Flashbacks in Episode 10 show that Nowhere was a lot greener in the past, but as time went on and El Rey took more and more magic users, the land became more desolate, to the point that multiple episodes have implied that the Oasis is the only major source of water left in the Southwest. Given that the Y'dala are said to need magic to survive, it's probably not a coincidence. | |

Our Elves Are Different | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_15fc9fb | comment |
Our Elves Are Different: Toth and Null are part of a people called the Y'dala, who have Pointy Ears, are Long-Lived, and apparently are endangered by the magic going away, all of which are common traits of fantasy elves. They're also Ambiguously Brown, have significantly higher strength and stamina than ordinary people (though that admittedly might be just Toth), and the two we've seen have red or orange eyes. In a flashback in Episode 10, they're even called elves directly. | |

Gratuitous Spanish: Characters sprinkle in Spanish words here and there, like "huevos" and "vamonos". Red Manuel is especially prone to this. Amusingly enough, Don Paragon's habit of doing this ticks them off and they view it as uncomfortable. | |

Episode 5 introduces us to the Undertaker, a sociopathic antagonist who tries to force the Nomad to teach him necromancy. Not only does he nearly try to gut the Nomad to see what makes him tick, but he eventually drives the Nomad to animate multiple objects in one clap. | |

Poor Communication Kills: Toth almost gets the Nomad to come with her willingly, saying she needs to help her people. Problem is, the Nomad needs to save a bird before he can go with her, and Toth takes it as a sign of him trying to run away, igniting a brawl and putting them right back where they started. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: The southwestern region of Nowhere (where the first season takes place) is a harsh and bitter desert, with most of the natural resource wells finally drying up aside from Don Paragon's Oasis. Aside from our protagonists, virtually all residents encountered are either greedy and self-interested criminals/bounty hunters, or impoverished and desperate peasants. Those of the populace who don't fear or despise magic want to use it for their own ends, making it dangerous for a magic-user to stay in any place for too long. The rest of Nowhere isn't any better, as the whole kingdom is ruled by a magic-eating tyrant and the ruthless "Governors" he empowered to conquer the four quadrants of the known world. | |

It's most obvious in "Fiesta," with him facepalming after the crowd initially misunderstands him calling out Don Paragon in front of the rest of the Oasis. | |

Crown of Power | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_3b74cf1c | comment |
Crown of Power: This is the backstory of the King El Rey, once centuries ago he was a warrior who discovered a mystical crown that granted him magical powers. Using it he ruled over the lands as a Benevolent Mage Ruler, until in his old age the crown's power began to fade. El Rey summoned a wizard to try to fix the problem, but instead the crown consumed the poor man, stealing his life and power to recharge. When El Rey put the crown back on, both his power and his youth was returned. Corrupted by the potential for power this gave him, El Rey became a tyrant and went onto consuming all the magic of Nowhere (save the titular Nomad) to ensure his dominion. It's even implied the crown itself is sapient, and very evil. | |

Schizo Tech | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_3c5ae1a1 | comment |
Schizo Tech: Nowhere's tech base is very eclectic. Most of what we see is reminiscent of The Wild West, but a lot of the region has elements borrowed from The Middle Ages and even earlier (i.e., Toth is dressed like she came out of One Thousand and One Nights, and the Champion of Toro's armaments are evocative of ancient Greece). Furthermore, some other elements like the Ranch Hand's arm speak more of Diesel Punk than anything else, which seems to come from "the Iron Border". The dialogue of several characters like Don Paragon also alludes to advanced communication technology. Episode 10's flashbacks show that Nowhere used to be more of a Standard Fantasy Setting before El Rey rose to power, suggesting that the loss of widespread magic basically forced Nowhere to go through an Industrial Revolution. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In Episode 2, contrary to what Barty hoped, magic cannot solve your problems (or at least, the Nomad's magic cannot). In the case of bringing the Mill's wheel to life, it made things worse by destroying the homes of Bliss Hill. Episode 3 follows up on this when the Nomad saves Bliss Hill from a bounty hunter and the townsfolk thank him, yet at the end of the episode, the sheriff asks him to leave again and never return. The reason? The Nomad's the only one who can do magic, and if word got out, it would immediately attract even more bounty hunters to Bliss Hill. So, while they're grateful, they can't harbor a wanted man of the Nomad's caliber. | |

Bittersweet Ending | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: Plenty of 'em. In "Trouble on Purpose", Nomad, despite defeating the outlaw and saving Bliss Hill, is forced to leave by the sheriff who, while incredibly grateful for his help, doesn't want the attention a magic user would bring. In "The Kindness of Strangers", the Nomad escapes the Undertaker's home alive, but not without losing two animated objects he befriended. In "Eagle Canyon", the baby eagle finally hatches safely after all the shenanigans its egg was put through. But Toth and Skout part ways after a fierce argument. In the season one finale, "Fiesta", Don Paragon has been defeated, and so the Oasis and other surrounding communities will no longer suffer under his tyranny. Furthermore, the Nomad being responsible for that has further broken his Hero with Bad Publicity reputation around Nowhere, with him and Skout now having the courage to take the fight to El Rey's bounty hunters and Governors. Unfortunately, El Rey is now very much aware of the Nomad, and Toth's relationship with Skout has quite possible been irrecoverably ruined by the latter siding with the Nomad over her. | |

Constructed World | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_458c7e61 | comment |
Constructed World: The series takes place in "Nowhere," a mysterious world where magic seems to have disappeared for the last century and its inhabitants have had to "make do." The whole kingdom is ruled by the mysterious El Rey, with each quadrant of Nowhere administered by a different supernatural Governor. The first season takes place entirely in the Southwest region of Nowhere, which is primarily depicted as a harsh and vast desert. While there are cultural influences from Earth seen in the series (i.e., the use of Spanish by several different characters), the series also tries to emphasize this world being different from our own, with several examples like the existence of magic and presence of the Y'dala. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_4a3e547f | comment |
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: The Underkeeper's rambling over the Nomad's magic in Episode 5 and its possible "rules"/applications sounds more than a little like a viewer theorizing about how the Nomad's magic works. Once the train Skout and the Nomad are in gets robbed in Episode 8, she asks "Why is it that every time we almost catch you a third party intervenes?!" The guards around the room where the Nomad is captured in Episode 11 talk about how uncomfortable Don Paragon's use of Spanish makes them, especially since he's not from their region of Nowhere. Don Paragon's awkward and downright appropriative (for lack of a better word) use of it has been consistently noted by the fans across the season. | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: The Southwest region of Nowhere is heavily evocative of The Wild West, though Don Paragon's Oasis and its related members bear a closer resemblance to the Spanish Empire than anyone else. From what little that we see, General Toro and his "Killosseum" are reminiscent of ancient Sparta. The Y'dala are treated in a similar fashion to Native Americans during the Wild West, especially in how the government takes their land and resources away from them and tries to take away their cultural heritage. The Y'dala's general fashion, however, is more evocative of the Middle East during the Medieval Era. | |

Really 700 Years Old | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_5c5ac0e2 | comment |
Really 700 Years Old: The Nomad is apparently over 100 years old, or at least, that's how long it's apparently been since anyone saw him before Episode 1. The same goes for El Rey. He obtained his power and crown well over 100 years ago, and continues to rule over Nowhere thanks to his crown granting him youth with each magic user it consumes. | |

| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_617f0563 | comment |
“Compass” tops every previous episode. Skout undergoes a Heel–Face Turn and obtains a Magic Compass that can find the Nomad no matter where he goes. Toth, meanwhile, has become exceedingly violent in her search for the Nomad. She’s resorted to threatening civilians and even the Dandy Lions, who were previously depicted having Blind Obedience, get unnerved by Toth’s ruthlessness. Finally, the episode ends on a cliffhanger, with Red Manuel attempting to murder Skout and the Nomad getting shot instead. Even the end credits don’t have music. | |

"Reading Is Cool" Aesop: Parodied in the first episode. Everyone mocks Skout for the books she tries to use to learn how to survive in the wilderness, and while the information within is useful, the books don't actually help her and end up being dead weight that gets destroyed over the course of the episode. She even has to destroy the last one on purpose to save her team. That said, her "book-knowledge" allowed her to identify a poisonous plant Red Manuel stupidly touched, right after he threw away her book on plants. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Early in his travels, the Nomad comes across Bliss Hill, a village that’s been cut off from their water source ever since their water wheel stopped working. He brings the water wheel to life, but the mayor’s overt hatred of magic angers it. Before the Nomad can stop it, it destroys half the village and runs away. This also attracts someone after the bounty the Don's placed on him, who decides to take a kid hostage to force the Nomad to come to him. Thankfully, the Nomad comes back and helps sort everything out. | |

Cerebus Retcon | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_8b67aba7 | comment |
Cerebus Retcon: In Episode 1, the Nomad is incredibly upset when an animated broom gives its "life" shielding the Nomad from an attack. In Episode 10, we learn that the broom originally belonged to Melinda, the witch who he had been sworn to protect a hundred years ago, and is one of the last objects he has to remember her with. Don Paragon's Bad Boss tendencies were initially Played for Laughs in the earlier episodes, but Episode 6 reveals him to be a brutal sociopath who actually kills his own employees over ridiculously petty issues. Red Manuel is mostly shown to be a hilariously boorish and incompetent idiot, but Episode 9 recasts his goofiness in a darker light when he has a genuine stroke of brilliance and simply follows the Champion of Toro to find the Nomad, and then tries to shoot Skout after he realizes she's helping the Nomad. Furthermore, Episode 12 reveals that his Jerkass tendencies are a result of him being tired of never getting any respect from anyone, which helps show him to be more pathetic than genuinely evil]]. | |

Wham Episode | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_8e20979 | comment |
Wham Episode: Episode 5 introduces us to the Undertaker, a sociopathic antagonist who tries to force the Nomad to teach him necromancy. Not only does he nearly try to gut the Nomad to see what makes him tick, but he eventually drives the Nomad to animate multiple objects in one clap. Episode 6. And how! First, the Nomad (and the audience) discover that not only was El Rey once a good man corrupted into a tyrant, but is also the reason that Nowhere is a barren desert and why the Nomad's the last of his kind. Second, during Toth's battle with a sandstorm creature, we see blood shed for the first time when she stabs it in the eye. Third, it turns out Don Paragon is not above stabbing one of his own men for petty reasons. And Fourth, Toth ignoring a grateful Skout may imply that without the latter, she may grow more ruthless in her hunt for the Nomad. “Compass” tops every previous episode. Skout undergoes a Heel–Face Turn and obtains a Magic Compass that can find the Nomad no matter where he goes. Toth, meanwhile, has become exceedingly violent in her search for the Nomad. She’s resorted to threatening civilians and even the Dandy Lions, who were previously depicted having Blind Obedience, get unnerved by Toth’s ruthlessness. Finally, the episode ends on a cliffhanger, with Red Manuel attempting to murder Skout and the Nomad getting shot instead. Even the end credits don’t have music. "The Witch and the Knight" reveals that the Nomad was originally a scarecrow, magically animated by a magic user to protect his daughter Melinda, who also had magic, and that his own abilities weren't something his creator originally intended. Melinda, who looks almost identical to Skout, left the Nomad to confront El Rey, wiping the Nomad's memory of her in the process, and never came back. And Don Paragon finally has the Nomad! The following episode, "The Red Carpet," has Toth leave Don Paragon's service, Skout nearly telling Toth that she loves her before deciding to do the right thing with the Nomad, and the Nomad himself finally fighting back. | |

Rule of Symbolism | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_916c72b3 | comment |
Rule of Symbolism: In "The Kindness of Strangers", the Undertaker wears spectacles throughout the episode. Near the climax, his spectacles are askew. By the end, he's missing his spectacles. This is a very telling indication of the Undertaker's sanity (or what little he had to begin with). In "The Witch and the Knight", the first three times the scarecrow comes to life is different times of the day, mid-day, twilight and night. The first time at mid-day is during a time when there's still green and plenty, as though representing that the age of magic is still on the rise. The second time at twilight speaks for itself, as the land is growing barren, as though ushering the twilight of the age of magic. When the scarecrow lasts comes to life at night, signifying that the age of magic has ended. Coincidentally, all three instances also signify the beginning, middle and end of Melinda's childhood with her father. Notably, Melinda's father is different ages in all three times he brings the scarecrow to life, not only representing the passage of time, but also the beginning, middle and end of Melinda's childhood with her father. He's a rather young father the first time, an older father with thinning hair the second time, and a greying, balding father during their last meeting. Towards the end of "Fiesta", El Rey has his crow familiars devour Don Paragon. During the feast, a single black feather flies off a crow and hangs over the full moon, creating the image of El Rey's baleful eye. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Human? | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_9c45b5a2 | comment |
What Measure Is a Non-Human?: While it's easy to shrug off the Nomad's animated objects every time something happens to them, it's the Nomad himself who recognizes that them being alive gives them their worth as living creatures, and is (without fail) saddened whenever they're essentially killed. Probably because he's one of them as well. | |

This Is Gonna Suck | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_9dfb8296 | comment |
This Is Gonna Suck: Throughout Don Paragon's and the Nomad's confrontation in Episode 12, this is the Don's response whenever the Nomad turns the tables. When he realizes he's just given the Nomad ample opportunity to clap, he snarks "Oh that's just..." before being interrupted. Then, when the Nomad brings rocks to life and turns them into armor, Don Paragon spits out an "I hate you!" before getting walloped. Finally, when Don Paragon is punched into the reservoir wall, giving it the last push needed to break, he can only remark "...Oh..." as the cracks start to leak. | |

Fantasy World Map | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_a139f52b | comment |
Fantasy World Map: "El Rey" shows a glimpse of a map depicting Nowhere and the known world. It also helps show the different biomes making up Nowhere, with the North being a mountainous alpine region, the West being a rocky desert, the South being a savannah, and the East being forests and grasslands along with the home of the "Iron Border." | |

| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_a2b38d3b | comment |
Episode 6. And how! First, the Nomad (and the audience) discover that not only was El Rey once a good man corrupted into a tyrant, but is also the reason that Nowhere is a barren desert and why the Nomad's the last of his kind. Second, during Toth's battle with a sandstorm creature, we see blood shed for the first time when she stabs it in the eye. Third, it turns out Don Paragon is not above stabbing one of his own men for petty reasons. And Fourth, Toth ignoring a grateful Skout may imply that without the latter, she may grow more ruthless in her hunt for the Nomad. | |

Jerkass Realization: Red Manuel starts to go through one in Episode 12, as he starts to realize that the reason he never gets any respect is because he's such a prick all the time. It's unfortunately cut short when he gets flung halfway across the city by a cannon being fired. | |

To Be Lawful or Good | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_a922f8de | comment |
To Be Lawful or Good: Toth and Skout seem to be on each side of the issue. On one hand, Skout is clearly troubled by the way things are, an example being people have to pay Don Paragon to have a decent drink of water. On the other hand, Toth, despite recognizing Skout's conflict, can only justify it by saying that "Rules are rules". | |

Rousing Speech: In the first episode, Toth gives the Dandy Lions one before they head into the Bramble Forest. Subverted, as she's given that same speech so many times before that her men are no longer pumped, and just exasperated. | |

Dramatic Irony | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_ab5eea65 | comment |
Dramatic Irony: Played with. The Nomad that Skout meets in Episode 1 is clearly the one and only, but Skout (initially) believes it isn't him, since he looks nothing like his Wanted poster. Throughout the episode, she spends time with the Nomad she knows as "Friend", without a clue that the "Dreaded Nomad" is a misunderstood loner. In "End of the Line", the civilians believe that the Nomad has caused all sorts of trouble, such as driving an undertaker insane and causing a circus to go bankrupt. All of those events were the result of the Nomad fixing more serious problems. | |

Save the Villain: While not exactly "villains", the Dandy Lions are not exactly the most heroic of people. Yet despite trying to capture him and burning down his house and most of his forest, the Nomad didn't hesitate to save them (though mostly he went to save Skout). | |

Tap on the Head: Played straight when the Nomad takes a shovel to the head and goes out like a light. Subverted with Big Jib, as he's stunned when he gets the same shovel wrapped around his head, but it takes a sustained attack to knock him out entirely. | |

Irony: The Undertaker wonders why the Nomad is upset whenever the former kills an animated object. "Do you feel responsible for them? Do you feel the need to protect them? Unless... they're here to protect you." For all his curiosity and theorizing, he never guesses that the Nomad is himself an animated object tasked to protect. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The Nomad being asked by the Sheriff of Bliss Hill to leave even after he helped save the town from the Ranch Hand is more than a little evocative of the ending to Fallout. The eye on El Rey's crown bears a distinct resemblance to Sauron's eye in the film version of The Lord of the Rings. El Rey's quest to the crown in Episode 6 appears to have been directly inspired by the creator's college short "Sir Knight of Nothing," which, funnily enough, is where the series draws its inspiration from. The creators have also claimed that the scene was heavily based on by the "Tale of the Three Brothers" sequence from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. In "End Of The Line," the train robbers call themselves "The Near-Sighted Bandits," prompting one of their victims to ask if "The Blind Bandits" wouldn't sound better. | |

Cerebus Syndrome: Episode 5 quickly becomes incredibly dark, as the Nomad is nearly gutted by a demented cemetery keeper who callously destroys his objects brought to life in order to figure out necromancy. Episode 6 brings this further, with the resultant tone remaining as an undercurrent for the rest of the season. | |

Red Manuel is mostly shown to be a hilariously boorish and incompetent idiot, but Episode 9 recasts his goofiness in a darker light when he has a genuine stroke of brilliance and simply follows the Champion of Toro to find the Nomad, and then tries to shoot Skout after he realizes she's helping the Nomad. Furthermore, Episode 12 reveals that his Jerkass tendencies are a result of him being tired of never getting any respect from anyone, which helps show him to be more pathetic than genuinely evil]]. | |

Running Gag | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Skout's books keep getting taken away or eaten in Episode 1. The Nomad not realizing that his own wanted poster is of him, which admittedly is because it doesn't resemble him in the slightest. | |

Weird West: While primarily a Western, the show has plenty of elements non-traditional to the genre, including magic, a monarchical government, bizarre creatures, and Diesel Punk technology. | |

Ridiculously Cute Critter: The living rocks and pretty much every other object that the Nomad brings to life, thanks to their huge, googly eyes. | |

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Toth is fervently searching for the Nomad so as to turn him in for El Rey because she can possibly get magic from El Rey to help save her people, the Y'dala. | |

Brick Joke: Skout points out near the start of one episode that Toth's packed a ridiculous amount of knives. Later, the Nomad uses his magic to animate something in Skout's backpack. An instant later, a bunch of animated knives cut their way out of the backpack. | |

Dark and Troubled Past | |
| Nomad of Nowhere (Web Animation) / int_fed93e1b | comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: The first episode hints that Nomad used to live with a young red haired girl similar to Skout, but something happened and now he's all alone. We learn in Episode 10 that said girl was a witch whom he was sworn to protect after her father died at the hands of El Rey's men. She wiped the Nomad's memories of her to prevent him from both ousting himself as a magic user and so that he wouldn't follow her in her attempt to battle El Rey. | |

Pet the Dog: While Toth may be dead-set on capturing/killing Nomad, despite it being obvious he is not dangerous, she also is very protective of Skout. | |
