Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Terinu is a black and white, full page web comic written by Australian native Peta Hewitt, featuring the title character, an alien boy whose race, the Ferin, were genetically engineered to serve as power sources for the Varn Dominion. Five hundred years ago they were wiped out as the races rebelled against the Dominion's control. Now the Dominion is hunting him down to recover their source of power and take the galaxy back, the space pirate who raised him wants to hunt him down to use him as her personal assassin and the Galactic Sapiens Alliance wants him either dead or dissected.It's nice to be wanted.An intricately plotted and well drawn and written comic series, set in six chapter arcs in a standard comic book format, mimicking the original dead tree editions.

comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Gwen's introduction to cybergliding by her "feral boyfriend" Cyeman plays out almost exactly like a young girl about to be deflowered by an older man.

Heterosexual Life-Partners: Teri and Matt spent half their lives as the abused slaves of a insane pirate warlord, with Matt stealing food to keep Terinu healthy and at one point cuddling with him in bed after Teri's powers were traumatically activated. Word of God has stated "They'd both rather be dead than see the other hurt."

Wave-Motion Gun: Subverted in the first story arc, as the weapon belongs to the Dominion and used by the Varn Gene Mage to test Terinu's abilities and crack open a Creo asteroid colony. It's implied that they once had even bigger cannon, used to bombard the Earth when they invaded it 500 years ago.

False Flag Operation
 Terinu (Webcomic) / int_2dddd99d
comment
False Flag Operation: Titalia used this tactic twice, in major Gambit Roulette fashion. First, she unleashes a vulpine specific genetically-engineered lethal virus intended to force the vulpine race to return to Ardactivian slavery or face extinction by spreading the illness through a third party. When this is thwarted by Terinu and Gwen, who not only took the cure data literally out of Titalia's hands but broadcast it to the Alliance before being recaptured, Titalia then goes with her "backup plan" of murdering her mother and framing the Alliance for it by forcing Gwen into a cyber-suit to shut down Ardactivan border defenses while human agents are nearby. This works like a charm due to the fact that Admiral Blake's black ops squad is foolishly tresspassing in Ardactivan territory while trying to exterminate Terinu.

 Terinu (Webcomic) / int_2f52c0af
comment
Accidental Pervert: Combined with Naked First Impression. Terinu asks, and is given permission by Rufus, to climb a tree that happens to include Gwen's house in its rather large branches. Unfortunately for him, Gwen had chosen that particular moment to be sunbathing on the deck of her house, outdoors, and naked. His retort that he was raised in a cabaret and had seen women in even more compromising positions and Gwen was nothing special did not go well for him.

Even Evil Has Standards: The Gene Mage, who helped in the original invasion of Earth and is at least partly responsible for the death of about a billion humans, is notably pissed to discover Titalia left Gwen and a gravely injured Terinu in a cell without food or water for a week.

Fantastic Racism: There are some notable entries. The Varn to pretty much everyone Non-varn with the possible exception of the Ardactavians. The humans to the Ferin. The space pirates, particularly Mavra Chan's group, to everyone non-pirate. The Ardactavians, particularly Titalia, to everyone mamalian to the point she's Feeling Oppressed by Their Existence, and thinks her people are entitled to enslave or exterminate them all, anything less means the Ardactavians are groveling and begging for scraps.

Tautological Templar: The Varn race, as a whole. They are all so utterly convinced that, thinking they're descended from gods, they are invariably good people, so everything they do is good, regardless of the consequences. Enslaving entire sentient species, completely destroying life-bearing planets, slaughtering innocents in the billions, is simply the unavoidable price of "improving" the lives of their victims, and taking a species able to generate bio-electricity, and making them sentient before reducing them to living batteries for their technology, and treating them as pets, is universally considered by them as improving the lot in life of said species. When Gwen gets a face to face chat with the Gene Mage, she not only chews him out for it but adamantly suggests that maybe all the sentient species the Varn have brutalized, especially humanity, might actually have a better chance of finding enlightenment on their own merits, instead of being rounded up and forcefully enslaved into it. The Gene Mage's reaction is equal parts disgust and fury that this pitiably ignorant Ungrateful Bitch just doesn't understand the Varn's "noble intentions" and never will.

A Million is a Statistic: When tens of thousands of Vulpine are at risk from a deadly virus, we only really see the first two victims, Rufus and Melika. However, when the Human Federation's genocide of the Ferin is revealed, Leeza is properly horrified. It doesn't hurt that when she makes the discovery, we see an obscured autopsy photo of one of the victims.

Fantastic Caste System: The Vulpine skirt this, dividing themselves into Farmer Lord (the Rulers), Military (the Fighters) and Commoner (everybody else). Fortunately there's some give to the system, with Commoners able to marry up into the Farmer Lord class, usually by gaining recognition during their mandantory military service.

Undying Loyalty: The Varn designed this in the Ferin race as a whole, on the genetic level. No matter what Admiral Blake and his crew did in the rebellion against the Varn, they could never get a Ferin to betray their Varn masters. While it has thinned over time, to the point that Ferin no longer consider Varn "masters" by default, a Ferin, like Terinu is genitically compelled to obey the orders of anyone he considers his "master."
