Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
In Final Fantasy Tactics a 2, there is the mission "I Want To Forget". The client has decided that he can no longer live with the pain he feels for his unrequited love ("I love someone that I can never have") and has requested that your clan get him zombie powder so that he can quit his mortal life. Long story short, you are given a choice between fulfilling the obligations of your quest by getting him zombie powder, or to instead get him lethean draught so he can simply forget his love and his pain. The subtle horror comes if you paid attention to how zombie powder works. The user dies and becomes a walking corpse... and their memories are preserved. If your client were to take zombie powder, he would not forget the love or be released from his pain. He would instead be a near-immortal walking corpse that remembers all of it.
As you get to see later in the Duelhorn saga, the results of the other option, the Lethean drought aren't too pretty either.
