- Almost all bosses in all games will follow the power of 3 rule. Meaning they either have 3 stages to their fight, 3 lives, or 3 moves.
-Bosses are normally immortal, except for something in their enviroment which will convieniently beat them
- It's bad for a terrorist to destroy a church, but open genocide on Afghanistan is a moralely just revenge.
-As probably perviously mentioned Food can restore mortal wounds.
-And of course, the main villian in any game wont be the man you are chasing the whole game, it'll be the best friend/teacher or old good guy who died/dissapeared from the first level and will make an entrance on the last level.

(Various RPGs, although hopefully not too many overlapping 'The Grand List of CRPG Cliches')
If someone extremely strong shows up and starts beating the snot out of you, don't worry- you'll get a second chance later and they'll be MUCH weaker.
Always check in the clocks.
Forget Microsoft and Oil Companies, killing things is the single fastest way to get rich. The stronger, the better.
You can usually fully explore a city in less than 10 minutes unless it's a capital city- that will take 20 minutes.
Swords are superior to guns.
If you look different from everyone else, you are special and will have at least one major event revolving around you.
See the above point, except doubly so, if you have your own theme song that plays whenever you're saying or doing something of value. If your theme song plays merely when you're around, you are likely one of the top 3 most important people in the world.
All sewer designers are evil bastards who enjoy creating endless mazes for the poor public health workers and anyone else who goes down there.
