The Descended is a webcomic run by Brian D. Lewis, also known as Ranger_Brian_New (on the forums), hosted on ComicFury. It is set in the fictional world of Soano, an original setting with unique rules built from scratch, governed by mechanics of an Role-Playing Game 'Verse Brian created. The story follows the quests and adventures that three individual groups have the misfortune of undertaking: The Elementals, The Latens, and The Outcasts. Because each group has four members (with the promise of a fourth group to come), it obviously has numerous characters, each with their own distinctive personality and rich backstories.The comic suffered from a two-and-a-half-year hiatus as Brian finished patching up and solidifying the details of the world he did not have consistently filled when he started the comic, a mistake he felt lead to the Writer's Block which kept him from continuing. As of July 2012, he has announced that he has mostly finished with his revisions, to the point where July 30th marked the relaunch of his comic, which is now updating regularly every Monday at 6:00 PM, Pacific Time. Currently, he estimates it will take until approximately November for him to get into new content.Plans are also under way for him to run a game based off of the mechanics he's created as well, though he has not announced an approximate date for this. | |

EyeColorChange | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_11077b27 | comment |
Eye Color Change: Eye color can change with any number of events, though most frequently, it's due to alignment—brighter colors for good, darker colors for evil. Ultimately at the higher levels, this results in characters universally having blue eyes, golden/orange eyes, or red eyes, regardless of original eye color. Argus has one blue eye and one red eye, despite neither being his natural eye color. Kinas's original eye color was golden, shifting to dark gray post-Face–Heel Turn. Sinaer had one of her purple eyes turn gold. | |

Dirty Coward: Rogues are supposed to be played this way. Aria's refusal to do so is what got her killed. Hank played it straight most of the time, though as an adventuring companion to Argus when Argus was "good", he picked up a few bad habits... | |

Card-Carrying Villain | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_137f2d7 | comment |
Card-Carrying Villain: There is no character on the evil half of the alignment chart who does not proudly show it off. Some (like Argus) are so good at it that they can convince others that the "evil way" is better. As an unfortunate side-effect, the Slave to PR half of the trope also applies to Argus, and every time Aria points out he's done a good deed, his bar on the Karma Meter shifts a little in the wrong direction. | |

Order Versus Chaos | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_1a237409 | comment |
Order Versus Chaos: Whereas Black-and-White Morality has a "cosmic balance" and can't tip too far to one side when it comes to ascension, this is actually averted for Gods; there is no similar scale for Order and Chaos, due to a loophole/paradox involving how the act of balancing them out itself tips the scales towards order. | |

Failed a Spot Check | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_21e5b9c7 | comment |
Failed a Spot Check: Justified in the backstory of The Elementals and The Latens: the army of Chaos was capable of attacking Helops directly and catching them off-guard because they specifically chose to avoid harming so much as a single village on their way, whereas most armies sent to destroy or conquer Helopia wasted their time attacking villages near the boarder of the nation. Faragawa fell through the same tactic, as it was orchestrated by the same man. Argus's failing of one is how Sasha is introduced. | |

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_2534ee67 | comment |
In Medias Res: The Outcasts were formed months before the comic began, with all members present at the beginning having been there for weeks. The Elementals and Latens have already gained 15% of their levels back, and begin the comic at the start of an adventure, rather than at the point they begin planning one. | |

Palette Swap | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_2557e3a9 | comment |
Palette Swap: Though they are each beginning to become more unique with the Art Shift and Art Evolution, there were originally only three types of clothing, one for each of the base classes—robes (Mage), plate armor (Warrior), and leather armor (Rogue); every character had one of the three, only differentiated by the colors. This also applied to the Anime Hair used on the sprites for Argus, Sanik, Kinas, and Nathan. | |

Generation Xerox | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_25bc8511 | comment |
Generation Xerox: The Strats are a long line of heroes, with adventuring being In the Blood...however, most Strats settled down and retire, and do their best to try and keep their children from experiencing the horrors that they faced over their long years of questing. They discourage the horrific lifestyle they once had and hide any evidence that they or any of their ancestors had ever been an adventurer—so as a result, every generation of Strats believes they are the first of their family to have gone adventuring. Argus and Chaos are no exceptions. The Elementals and Latens have become this as well. | |

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
Lampshade Hanging: Nathan Betrax is the designated Captain Obvious and lampshade hanger. However, as every character knows that Soano works on game mechanics, they all have a certain level of awareness. Argus, having been a god for a brief period of time, has it the highest, since he really knows his tropes. | |

100% Heroism Rating | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_31874a | comment |
100% Heroism Rating: The Elementals started off fairly small, but became widely known as some of the greatest adventurers of their nation by the time they were called on to thwart a demon invasion. After losing Sanik, his reputation skyrocketed. It wasn't until shortly after repelling an enemy invasion that they well and truly became this, though. However, they've since started from scratch, owing to Helops being destroyed. Jason Argo Maustrat is hailed as one of the greatest adventurers of all time, a hero across all of Soano. For that same reason, Argus (now anything but heroic) prefers not to use his old name, only invoking it when absolutely necessary. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: Especially those on the idealistic side of the scale. Among others: Argus is theoretically ruthless, but cares for his companions. Kinas is evil, but still maintains a great deal of his code from his days on the other side of the spectrum. Nathan Betrax is pragmatic and technically evil, but has a set of codes he follows. Chaos didn't want to harm Argus (or at the very least, wanted to kill him last) because of their relationship. The same applies to his servant Celaren, who didn't wish to kill Enlecar. | |

Martial Arts Headband: Tyra, M, Sinaer, and Enlecar all play it straight. Sarge is sometimes depicted with one, but not always.

Personality Powers: Sanik's slightly whimsical (Wind), Sarge is a little confrontational (Fire), M is coldly logical (Water), and Tyra is strong, yet calming (Earth). In general, Water users tend to be distant and calculating, as Mages specialize in manipulation, Warriors in conservation, and Rogues in sabotage; Light users tend to be heroic, as Mages specialize in healing, Warriors in duty, and Rogues in confusion and charm; Darkness users tend to be villainous, as Mages specialize in deceptive illusions, Warriors specialize in passion, and Rogues specialize in stealth; Wind users tend to be airheads, but when it matters, helpful, as Mages specialize in Buffs/Debuffs, Warriors in opportunism, and Rogues in support; Fire users tend to be aggressive, as the element focuses on attack power, Ice users tend to be snappy, as the element focuses on speed; Energy users tend to be stubborn and defiant, as the element focuses on willpower and outlasting the enemy; Earth users tend to be calm and in control, as the element focuses on keeping hold on the situation. | |

Crazy-Prepared: Argus, having lived through life once already, is well-prepared for pretty much anything he encounters, since he's encountered it before and knows exactly how to deal with it. Voss, in the Elementals' backstory, was this. He was so skilled that he prepared for his own death and the death of his old friends, knew exactly how and why The Elementals would be defeated, gave them all new equipment, and wished Kinas well on creating The Latens, something which happened after his death. | |

Dump Stat: In the backstory, the Power Trio covered nine of the ten stats as strong points. Their universal Dump Stat? Wisdom. Hilarity Ensues. Each character except for Argus has one, but the only one Brian has made official is that Nathan's is Wisdom. | |

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_5d6a4e3f | comment |
Twin Desynch: Played with—Sanik was originally less heroic and Kinas more heroic, so after the Battle of Helops when Sanik became more heroic, he became more like Kinas...but Kinas became less heroic and had his appearance drastically altered. | |

Combat Medic: Sasha is a Light Paladin, skilled in both healing and melee. Tyra is her team's designated healer, but is among their best fighters. Sinaer is a Light Mage, but used to be a Darkness Martial Artist, and therefore is more than capable of fighting when the need arises. | |

Big Brother Instinct: Played straight with Sanik to Kinas, inverted with Enlecar, who has the instinct for his older brother, Celaren. Argus and Chaos canonically had an older brother who was like this for them until they became old enough to look out for themselves. Kinas also has the instinct towards, of all people, Nathan Betrax. | |

Skill Point Reset: Played with—this can be done at any location where a character can rest. However, a character is not an instant expert and their new set of abilities and stats either must already be familiar to them or take some heavy adjusting to. Also, changing class and attributes generally requires a different set of equipment the character should have. | |

Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance: Built into the rules of the world, appearances reflect actions taken in life. As a result, most characters look exactly how one would expect of them. Of note, Argus and Kinas both look like a Fallen Hero, and both are. Davos looks like a vampire, and Sasha looks like a goblin. Sarge looks like a Fire Warrior, and M looks like a Water Mage. | |

Arbitrary Gun Power | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_76a83c72 | comment |
Arbitrary Gun Power: Guns fire faster than bows and crossbows, have greater accuracy than either, and have a range and reload time between the two, but at the cost of damage. Justified, as guns in Soano are not powered in quite the same way as guns in real life, owing to the fantasy setting. Sinaer using one made her The Sniper. | |

Davos is almost always shown with a smile, but Word of God is that the smile is simply so that he can have an easier time showing Davos's teeth to make sure people know he's a vampire. | |

Curtains Match the Window: All The Elementals. Nathan Betrax also plays it straight. Kinas (dark gray eyes, black hair), Sinaer (purple eyes, black hair with purple streaks; yellow eye, yellow streaks of hair), and Enlecar (yellow and blue eyes, with yellow and blue streaks in his hair) all contain the spirit of the trope as well Both Davos and Sarge originally had hair colors different from their eye colors. Now, Sarge has red hair, and Davos's hair is canonically very-dark-crimson. | |

The Legions of Hell: Instead of just one demonic dimension, there are several, though none of them are technically "hell". The primary one is the largest, because it's the only group smart enough to never launch a full-scale invasion: instead, they just perform an occasional raid. Their complex plans were laid out by Argus. | |

His favorite fonts are Arial and Agency FB. Arial is typically for normal speech, with Agency FB used for everything else.

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_8aebbc74 | comment |
Evil Pays Better: Variant—it's not Evil which pays better; being cynical on the "third wheel" makes the character play their alignment most effectively to its standard. Also subverted with quality of life. When it comes to quality of life, it's neither cynical nor idealistic characters who have it best; it's those in the middle. | |

The Strats are a long line of heroes, with adventuring being In the Blood...however, most Strats settled down and retire, and do their best to try and keep their children from experiencing the horrors that they faced over their long years of questing. They discourage the horrific lifestyle they once had and hide any evidence that they or any of their ancestors had ever been an adventurer—so as a result, every generation of Strats believes they are the first of their family to have gone adventuring. Argus and Chaos are no exceptions. | |

Time Travel | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_9d6427ec | comment |
Time Travel: It's possible under extreme circumstances, but has limits. While little changes to the past/present are possible, The Cosmos always ensure that things play out "the way they are supposed to". Time Travel to the past cannot change it, since it has already happened. Do nothing to alter history? That's how it was supposed to go. Try to mess things up, or make things better? Circumstances always foil you. Think that you're supposed to do something in the past and not do it? Someone else takes your place. Think someone else is supposed to do something, but end up doing it yourself? That's how things were supposed to work. Try saving someone who was supposed to die? Only possible if you make it look like they have. And so on. Time Travel to the future is not recommended, because if you travel to the future and come back, the future you went to is destined to happen no matter what you try. Do nothing? It happens. Try to prevent it? You end up securing its existence. Try to cause it? You succeed. \\This rule has a couple of loopholes, though. It only kicks in for physical travel to the future, so people with the ability to see the future aren't actually seeing "The Future"; they're simply seeing how events are most likely to play out. The other loophole was found by Chaos—by traveling to the future but not traveling back, Chaos managed to cheat Gods into thinking him dead, rendering him untraceable. | |

Black Magic: All over the place. Ironically, it is strongest in Warriors, rather than Mages, as many Warrior skills involve sacrifices. This trend it taken up to eleven with the Darkness Warrior, making it the best fit. Necromancy, one of the only forms of magic actually illegal in Soano, however, is actually made up of the Light and Water elements' combination—fittingly enough, its name is "Reflect", and Necromancy involves inverting the norms. | |

Back from the Brink | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_a37e27db | comment |
Back from the Brink: The Battle of Helops had this for both sides. With The Elementals defeated and the forces of Helops beginning to tire, it looked like total defeat would happen... until Voss, David, and Ian unleashed their fury. This managed to wipe out nine tenths of the invading army and seriously cripple their leader, Celaren. However, Celaren managed to kill David, Ian, and Voss before leaving. Helops survived the attack, but was unable to recover and fell apart, whereas the remnants of the army were still strong enough to level Revan, Lejus, and Yeras Wharf before they died. Argus had this during his fight with Chaos, who had killed two of their traveling companions and critically wounded Hank. Only after Hank stabbed Chaos from behind did Argus get a chance to counter-attack. | |

Petal Power: While the Earth Element is primarily Dishing Out Dirt, there is no "Nature" element, and so, this falls under Earth's domain as well. | |

Only Known by Their Nickname: M. David Smith was called "The Blacksmith", and Ian Oman was called "The Old Man". Chaos is called by his nickname. Though, technically, it's an acronym of his real name, Cedric Hector Aostrat. The Agent of Chaos has a real name, Celaren, but is never called as such, due to his fall. | |

Prestige Class | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_a7bb930 | comment |
Prestige Class: One can multiclass at any time, however, Martial Artists (Warrior+Rogue), (Death) Paladins (Warrior+Mage), and Woodsmen (Rogue+Mage) only become prestige classes at Level 300, where the penalties for multiclassing once are removed, allowing an upgrade to a mixture of two classes rather than specializing in just one. At level 850, the penalty for Master (All) is removed, allowing for a character to have full access to all abilities from all classes to make ascension easier. | |

Red Eyes, Take Warning | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_a939a527 | comment |
Red Eyes, Take Warning: Evil characters who get to a high enough level gain these. Argus has one, hidden behind his hair. Subverted with Sarge—he has the eyes, and is the main combatant for The Elementals (making him a large threat), but he is not the most dangerous member of the team overall, and is one of the better people in the group on any given average day. Davos zig-zags this—he's the most deadly combatant of The Outcasts (straight). However, he is generally a kind person (subverted). It's when his red eyes glow that you're really in trouble. | |

Think Nothing of It: Of all the groups to display this, the strongest advocates? The Outcasts. Justified with Argus, who really doesn't want people to think of any good deed he's done. Also justified with Davos, who is biologically compelled to help; if he had his way, he wouldn't. Sasha is a more traditional example from the same team, who chose her lifestyle because she wished to. | |

Face–Heel Turn: While all of The Latens dropped at least a ring or two on the alignment spectrum, none took the hit harder than Kinas. However, even he isn't the most extreme example—that honor belongs to Argus, as he dropped from good to evil. One need only look at the title of the webcomic to see why this trope is common yet its counterpart is nowhere to be found. | |

Fish out of Water: The Elementals and Latens—they're used to adventuring at Level 100. They're Level 15, and many have switched classes. As such, they're still adjusting to the changes in their lives. Variant: Argus spent either too long or too short in the company of gods, ocasionally being blind to tropes he really should have seen coming. | |

White Magician Girl: Robes? Check. Support role in combat? Check. Designated healer of the team? Check. A staff? Check. Caring and compassionate? Oh so very much check. Sinaer plays this almost completely straight; the only things missing are long hair and poor combat skills. Tyra is a good example as well, having most of the same characteristics, though she plays a little more of an active (albeit still indirect) role in battle. As a bonus, she originally had longer hair, too. | |

Shocking Defeat Legacy | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_b7227261 | comment |
Shocking Defeat Legacy: Technically, the Battle of Helops ended in victory for The Elementals and The Latens—the leader of the army of Chaos was defeated and the army was almost entirely wiped out. Given that it cost the lives of Voss, David, and Ian to accomplish, Helops still fell, the remnants of the army destroyed almost every city in Helopia anyway, and The Elementals and Latens were reset to level 1 without most of their equipment, half-way across the world, it certainly didn't feel like they won. They don't call it "post-defeat" because they won, after all. | |

Glowing Eyes of Doom | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_b85c06f2 | comment |
Glowing Eyes of Doom: Magical characters have these on so frequently it is almost permanent. Higher-leveled characters get alignment-based variations, blue for good, red for evil, and orange for neutral. Characters who have switched elements and/or alignments tend to frequently maintain one eye from each side, meaning that when their eyes shift fully to one side, it is never a good sign. Argus is the best example. If his Hidden Eye glows blue, you're dead. If his Hidden Eye glows red, you'll wish you were. If both eyes go red, you're deader than dead. | |

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: In general, it is a very bad idea to mess with any of the cast members, because each group has at least one member who reacts very negatively to seeing their companions in mental pain. Argus->Davos. Physically, he doesn't mind if Davos is beaten to a pulp. Mentally mess with him, and you'd wish Argus had finished you off. Sanik->Latens, especially Kinas. They may be his rivals, but he still considers them comrades; mess with them, and he will not show mercy. Tyra->Sanik. Sarge->Elementals. Even M. They're his comrades, and he won't tolerate it. Kinas->Elementals and Latens. The Elementals are his rivals, but they're still his friends. Much more so for The Latens, though; they are his group, and he does not tolerate them suffering. Sinaer->Kinas, since someone has to look out for him. | |

The Dark Arts | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_c4d32b92 | comment |
The Dark Arts: Ironically, not the Darkness element. While the darkness element has the typical negative connotations, it is no more evil than any other element, only having its reputation because Darkness Mages (illusions), along with Water Mages (manipulation) are the primary elements of deception, making users less trustworthy. Warriors (especially Darkness Warriors) have a negative reputation because their skills mainly involve sacrifice and bloodlust, but they're not a dark art, either. The true Dark Art is the "Reflect" sub-element, a combination of Light and Water—it's the basis of necromancy. | |

Power Trio | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_ca85e684 | comment |
Power Trio: While all the groups in the present are made up of four-member groups, the backstory features a core trio consisting of Argus, Hank, and Chaos. Three Plus Two: During their "final battle" before ascension, their adventuring party was this. The three above were also traveling with two others, one of them Davos's father and the other, Hank's Love Interest. Chaos killed both of them before they knew what hit them, but failed to kill Hank. Beauty, Brains, and Brawn: Chaos as the Brawn, with Argus and Hank sharing traits of Brains and Beauty. Comic Trio: Who filled what role depends on the situation. In towns, Argus was the Only Sane Man. During adventures, it'd frequently be Chaos, with Argus as the leader and Hank as the follower. Fire, Ice, Lightning: Hank (Fire+Light), Argus (Lightning+Wind), and Chaos (Ice+Darkness). | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Because the artist Brian is one himself, a large number of his characters take different personality traits from the trope, each incoherent in their own ways, though none are a perfect match. Argus rants about tropes by name, which people tend to just shrug off. Davos frequently spurts out things which sound like nonsense, though they often have basis in fact... Sanik, being of the Wind Element, tends to operate on a different wave of thought. Nathan, designated hanger of lampshades, naturally is not normal, either. | |

Subverted with Sanik-Tyra and Kinas-Sinaer, though: Word of God says they will, they do, and have been for some time. It's just that when you live your life constantly on the move, adventuring consistently every day and having very few nights where you have private chambers, they don't get the chance very often. | |

Broken Hero | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_d0884114 | comment |
Broken Hero: Multiple cast members fulfill some of the criteria, but Sanik is by far the champion of this trope. Despite having his hometown destroyed as a child and losing his friends and family, losing his adventuring partner Celaren (and later learning Celaren was now working for his enemy), and being powerless to stop the deaths of Voss, Ian, and David, along with the destruction of his entire nation, he's actually become more heroic, as each tragedy has turned him increasingly less pragmatic. | |

The Chessmaster: Central to the plot, so many are present. Most notably, Argus, Hank, and Chaos are considered to be in a four-way chess battle. The fourth player being The Cosmos, which all three are trying to manipulate to their advantage without getting fried. Voss is also an extremely notable one. Despite him being dead at the start of the story, he managed to predict the exact way both The Elementals and The Latens (before the latter even existed) would act, equipping them with what they would need for their new lifetime of adventuring. | |

Reset Button | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_d9c4365c | comment |
Reset Button: When Argus was nerfed, he was sent back to Level 1 (though he kept his equipment). When The Elementals and Latens were defeated by an Agent Of Chaos, they were sent back to level 1 and lost a good portion of their equipment. Unfortunately, this reset only applied to them, with their mentors, hometown, and homeland not having such luxuries. As a result, they all died. | |

Action Girl: Considering the series focuses on groups of adventurers—whose daily jobs involve fighting endless hordes of monsters—it's really no surprise that the entire female cast is (or was) one of these. However, the main Action Girl is Aria. | |

As an unfortunate side-effect, the Slave to PR half of the trope also applies to Argus, and every time Aria points out he's done a good deed, his bar on the Karma Meter shifts a little in the wrong direction. | |

Art Evolution | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_e43c66bd | comment |
Art Evolution: The desire to have this is one of the reasons why Brian chose to change styles from being a Sprite Comic into Animesque art. He's certainly succeeded; even over the course of just the first comic, it was clear Brian was improving. The decision itself may qualify; the difference between sprite-like and manga-like art is large, as demonstrated nicely here◊. | |

Composite Character: All of The Elementals and Latens take from three different source materials. Most of them remained overall the same, but the two most notably different are M and Nathan Betrax. Furthermore, both Lord Demon (two different demons) and Indigo Montimer were formed from two separate ideas merging. | |

The Hero | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_e49686 | comment |
The Hero: All three leaders have ties to this trope, reflected in their leitmotifs. Argus isn't exactly a hero, as he is evil. However, he used to be one, and still possesses many heroic trends—among them, that his actions still make the world a better place, as they did when he was still a hero. Sanik fit many of the literal requirements pre-Battle of Helops, but only became a true hero after it. As a contrast, Kinas used to fit the mold even better than Sanik did, but is anything but since his Face–Heel Turn, which started because of that same battle. | |

Right Makes Might | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_f4cc3a09 | comment |
Right Makes Might: Inverted, subverted, and played straight at different points in the story. Played Straight: The Elementals, who have a higher moral standing than their counterparts The Latens, take less damage in combat. Inverted: The Elementals and Latens, when they were the same group, were weaker than the Agent Of Chaos sent to destroy them, who was evil. Subverted: Argus gets weaker when he is being "good", but frequently puts more into his fight, resulting in him being more powerful. | |

Three Plus Two | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_f7a1c539 | comment |
Three Plus Two: During their "final battle" before ascension, their adventuring party was this. The three above were also traveling with two others, one of them Davos's father and the other, Hank's Love Interest. Chaos killed both of them before they knew what hit them, but failed to kill Hank. | |

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_faece9aa | comment |
The Power of Friendship: The only universally redeeming character trait in the cast. If not for their friendships with each other, a lot of the cast (The Latens in particular) would be far worse people than they are. | |

Will They or Won't They? | |
The Descended (Webcomic) / int_fdc1e848 | comment |
Will They or Won't They?: The lead male of each group with the lead female of each group. Subverted with Sanik-Tyra and Kinas-Sinaer, though: Word of God says they will, they do, and have been for some time. It's just that when you live your life constantly on the move, adventuring consistently every day and having very few nights where you have private chambers, they don't get the chance very often. | |

The Corrupter | |

The Corrupter: Chaos has become one. It's so powerful that those he's corrupted are themselves capable of corrupting. Celaren did this to The Latens, and Argus is one as well, able to convince even Sasha (most of the time) that the way of evil is perfectly fine. | |

The Descended (Webcomic) / int_feb1cd82 | comment |
Cut and Paste Comic: Originally invoked with Brian's tendency not to redraw characters; it's now averted in the actual comic since the Art Evolution as his justification of the art being based off of a game was lost. However, he still uses it for filler comics. | |
