Additions:
Sic Semper is an RPG campaign pretending to be a low-budget science fiction TV series. It premiered in fall 2009 and ran for five seasons of nine episodes each.
At the end of Season 5, the producers decided not to renew the series for a sixth season, citing falling ratings and wanting to end on a high note. The last season wrapped most things up in a satisfying manner, yet left the door open for a possible continuation in some form at some time.
Deletions:
Sic Semper is an RPG campaign pretending to be a low-budget science fiction TV series. It premiered in fall 2009 and is currently in its fifth season.
That is, until it becomes something else again.

Sic Semper is an RPG campaign pretending to be a low-budget science fiction TV series. It premiered in fall 2009 and is currently in its third season.

++It's about four people from year 2009 stuck in a prison colony called Coventry++ ... {{tvt name="LyingCreator" text="no."}}

++It's about escaping a multidimensional prison colony++ ... {{tvt name="ReTool" text="not that either."}}

It's about a larger than usual {{tvt name="RagtagBunchOfMisfits"}} from {{tvt name="AlternateHistory" text="alternate Universes"}}, trying to find their way home while fighting a powerful interdimensional corporation which has imprisoned them for reasons of its own.

That is, until it becomes something else again.



-----

This series provides examples of

- {{tvt name="ActionGirl"}}: Jumapii. Although she's more of an Action Woman at 45.
- {{tvt name="ActionSurvivor"}}: Most main characters until Season 3, when the main cast is joined by Giovanni, a {{tvt name="WickedCultured"}} {{tvt name="Assassin"}}, and Mily, a near-{{tvt name="CrazyPrepared"}} {{tvt name="DisasterScavengers" text="Disaster Scavenger"}}.
- {{tvt name="ActualPacifist"}}: Ayela. She has gone as far as threaten Gao Chun with a gun, but it's uncertain if she'd ever have fired.
- {{tvt name="Anyone Can Die"}}: For a series that started out with very little violence, the body count sure has gone up since the end of Season 1. Now that they're even killing off main characters, who knows where it will end?
- {{tvt name="BlackDudeDiesFirst"}}: Whenever there's a battle, this trope seems to work. Jacques Artha in [[SicSemper009| episode 9]], Myo Obadele in [[SicSemper016| episode 16]], Matthau Bankole in [[SicSemper023| episode 23]]. Of course there are a lot of black people in the series but still. Interestingly, Leonid has been responsible for all these deaths (ordering the attack on Jacques Artha, sending Myo Obadele to his death, and leading the group where Matthau Bankole was shot).
- {{tvt name="BloodierAndGorier"}}: Since getting out of Coventry, things have been getting more and more violent.
- {{tvt name="CampGay"}}: Walter Huggel, whiny hairdresser
- {{tvt name="Chessmaster"}}: Everything that happens, happens because Mizida has planned it to happen. Except maybe {{color text="not managing to be on the first conveyor off Coventry" c="white"}}, and seeing how season 3 is turning out so far, maybe even that.
- {{tvt name="CompleteMonster"}}: Tukulti-Ninib is implied to have been this.
- {{tvt name="DidNotDoTheResearch"}}: Happens occasionally. Do not watch this for advice on how to survive a shipwreck or make bombs.
- {{tvt name="DisasterScavengers"}}: Schatzgräbers make their living in the ruined cities of Europe. Their timeline is not a happy place.
- {{tvt name="DisproportionateRetribution"}}: Discover something Infinity would like to keep secret, no matter how minor? You get sterilization, a memory wipe and a ticket to a primitive tropical village for the rest of your life!
- {{tvt name="FishOutOfTemporalWater" text="A School Of Fish Out Of Temporal Waters"}}: Pretty much the whole point.
- {{tvt name="Flashback"}}: Common in Season 1, not so common any more.
- {{tvt name="HideYourChildren"}}: Coventry had no children at all, since the people in it had been sterilized. Starting from season 3, we have seen some children.
- {{tvt name="Infodump"}}: The characters finding out stuff about Infinity tends to result in one of these.
- {{tvt name="LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters"}}: You will need a scorecard to keep all the characters straight.
- {{tvt name="MechanicalMonster"}}: Tigris Mk II tiger-robot, complete with minigun and six legs.
- {{tvt name="MegaCorp"}}: Infinity Unlimited, apparently.
- {{tvt name="TheMultiverse"}}: All the parallel realities. So far we've only seen a few, but several dozen have been mentioned. These are all Alternate Histories, some more so than others.
- {{tvt name="NationalStereotypes"}}: Some averted, some subverted, many played very straight. Especially the Persians.
- {{tvt name="PenalColony"}}: Coventry. Maybe. Nobody really knows for sure, but this seems to be the leading theory
- {{tvt name="ReluctantRuler"}}: Julien and possibly Ayela too.
- {{tvt name="Retirony"}}: What do you expect to happen after the characters spend five minutes reminiscing about things they miss back home?
- {{tvt name="ReTool"}}: Every season so far has been completely different from the previous one. This is an intentional attempt by the producer to keep the series from getting stuck in a rut. {{tvt name="StatusQuoIsGod" text="Status Quo is definitely not god here."}}
- {{tvt name="SomedayThisWillComeInHandy"}}: Carefully examining the time machine way back in [[SicSemper001| "Echo Surveillance"]] is what makes it possible for Darya to operate one in [[SicSemper015| "Trust"]], nearly two seasons later.
- {{tvt name="ViewersAreGeniuses"}}: Some of the episodes are so densely written it's as if they're only meant to be understandable for the authors themselves
- {{tvt name="WhamEpisode"}}: [[SicSemper023| Episode 23]]. They killed {{color text="Leonid!" c="white"}} The bastards!
- {{tvt name="WouldntHitAGirl"}}: Even Giovanni, an immoral assassin who likes torture, has some standards.
- {{tvt name="WrenchWench"}}: Clavia
- {{tvt name="XanatosSpeedChess"}}: Leonid was a master of this.
- {{tvt name="YellowPeril"}}: Gao Chun, an inscrutable criminal mastermind / rebel leader

++It's about escaping a multidimensional prison colony++ ... {{tvt name="ReTool" text="not that either."}}

It's about a larger than usual {{tvt name="RagtagBunchOfMisfits"}} from {{tvt name="AlternateHistory" text="alternate Universes"}}, trying to find their way home while fighting a powerful interdimensional corporation which has imprisoned them for reasons of its own.

That is, until it becomes something else again.



-----

This series provides examples of

- {{tvt name="ActionGirl"}}: Jumapii. Although she's more of an Action Woman at 45.
- {{tvt name="ActionSurvivor"}}: Most main characters until Season 3, when the main cast is joined by Giovanni, a {{tvt name="WickedCultured"}} {{tvt name="Assassin"}}, and Mily, a near-{{tvt name="CrazyPrepared"}} {{tvt name="DisasterScavengers" text="Disaster Scavenger"}}.
- {{tvt name="ActualPacifist"}}: Ayela. She has gone as far as threaten Gao Chun with a gun, but it's uncertain if she'd ever have fired.
- {{tvt name="Anyone Can Die"}}: For a series that started out with very little violence, the body count sure has gone up since the end of Season 1. Now that they're even killing off main characters, who knows where it will end?
- {{tvt name="BlackDudeDiesFirst"}}: Whenever there's a battle, this trope seems to work. Jacques Artha in [[SicSemper009| episode 9]], Myo Obadele in [[SicSemper016| episode 16]], Matthau Bankole in [[SicSemper023| episode 23]]. Of course there are a lot of black people in the series but still. Interestingly, Leonid has been responsible for all these deaths (ordering the attack on Jacques Artha, sending Myo Obadele to his death, and leading the group where Matthau Bankole was shot).
- {{tvt name="BloodierAndGorier"}}: Since getting out of Coventry, things have been getting more and more violent.
- {{tvt name="CampGay"}}: Walter Huggel, whiny hairdresser
- {{tvt name="Chessmaster"}}: Everything that happens, happens because Mizida has planned it to happen. Except maybe {{color text="not managing to be on the first conveyor off Coventry" c="white"}}, and seeing how season 3 is turning out so far, maybe even that.
- {{tvt name="CompleteMonster"}}: Tukulti-Ninib is implied to have been this.
- {{tvt name="DidNotDoTheResearch"}}: Happens occasionally. Do not watch this for advice on how to survive a shipwreck or make bombs.
- {{tvt name="DisasterScavengers"}}: Schatzgräbers make their living in the ruined cities of Europe. Their timeline is not a happy place.
- {{tvt name="DisproportionateRetribution"}}: Discover something Infinity would like to keep secret, no matter how minor? You get sterilization, a memory wipe and a ticket to a primitive tropical village for the rest of your life!
- {{tvt name="FishOutOfTemporalWater" text="A School Of Fish Out Of Temporal Waters"}}: Pretty much the whole point.
- {{tvt name="Flashback"}}: Common in Season 1, not so common any more.
- {{tvt name="HideYourChildren"}}: Coventry had no children at all, since the people in it had been sterilized. Starting from season 3, we have seen some children.
- {{tvt name="Infodump"}}: The characters finding out stuff about Infinity tends to result in one of these.
- {{tvt name="LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters"}}: You will need a scorecard to keep all the characters straight.
- {{tvt name="MechanicalMonster"}}: Tigris Mk II tiger-robot, complete with minigun and six legs.
- {{tvt name="MegaCorp"}}: Infinity Unlimited, apparently.
- {{tvt name="TheMultiverse"}}: All the parallel realities. So far we've only seen a few, but several dozen have been mentioned. These are all Alternate Histories, some more so than others.
- {{tvt name="NationalStereotypes"}}: Some averted, some subverted, many played very straight. Especially the Persians.
- {{tvt name="PenalColony"}}: Coventry. Maybe. Nobody really knows for sure, but this seems to be the leading theory
- {{tvt name="ReluctantRuler"}}: Julien and possibly Ayela too.
- {{tvt name="Retirony"}}: What do you expect to happen after the characters spend five minutes reminiscing about things they miss back home?
- {{tvt name="ReTool"}}: Every season so far has been completely different from the previous one. This is an intentional attempt by the producer to keep the series from getting stuck in a rut. {{tvt name="StatusQuoIsGod" text="Status Quo is definitely not god here."}}
- {{tvt name="SomedayThisWillComeInHandy"}}: Carefully examining the time machine way back in [[SicSemper001| "Echo Surveillance"]] is what makes it possible for Darya to operate one in [[SicSemper015| "Trust"]], nearly two seasons later.
- {{tvt name="ViewersAreGeniuses"}}: Some of the episodes are so densely written it's as if they're only meant to be understandable for the authors themselves
- {{tvt name="WhamEpisode"}}: [[SicSemper023| Episode 23]]. They killed {{color text="Leonid!" c="white"}} The bastards!
- {{tvt name="WouldntHitAGirl"}}: Even Giovanni, an immoral assassin who likes torture, has some standards.
- {{tvt name="WrenchWench"}}: Clavia
- {{tvt name="XanatosSpeedChess"}}: Leonid was a master of this.
- {{tvt name="YellowPeril"}}: Gao Chun, an inscrutable criminal mastermind / rebel leader
