Additional plot devices

Maybe those are plot devices, I'm not sure:

  • Amnesia
  • Unescapable Location
  • Chase
  • Hostage situation
  • Fight
  • Internal crisis
  • Dispute
  • Trial

Could somebody comment on them? Peter S. 12:32, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)


Could also refer to Mary Sue and the Evil Overlord and "Overused Science Fiction Plot Devices" websites.

How about the following under Plot device?

  • Evil character now Good and Good Character now evil switch.

Hero either goes into alterantive universe by accident such as in Star Trek "Mirror, Mirror" or goes back in time and changes the past as in epsiode of "Danny Phantom". In either case "Good" Characters are now "Evil" and "Evil Characters are now "Good".

  • Evil gang aginst Hero. Various Evil Villinas having been defeated by hero, gang up against hero and put him/her in deadly peril. Despite this, hero escapes and deposes Evil Villians
