One common cliche is the 'damsel in distress'. Often in historical fiction, there's a female character who is constantly in need of rescue by the male hero. Another is the 'wise old mentor' figure, an elderly person who imparts crucial knowledge to the protagonist. And the 'rags - to - riches' story where a character rises from a lowly position to great wealth or power within the historical setting.

Well, first, try to focus on the real, complex aspects of human nature during that historical time. Instead of using a simple 'rags - to - riches' plot, explore how people's values and beliefs changed gradually. Also, avoid the overused love triangle. Create relationships that are more in - depth and based on the historical context. And don't make the settings overly romanticized. Show the gritty, real side of the historical period.

One common cliche is the brilliant but eccentric detective. You often see a detective with strange habits or quirks, like Sherlock Holmes and his violin playing or drug use. Another is the 'damsel in distress'. There's usually a female character who needs to be rescued by the detective. Also, the 'unexpected twist' at the end is a big cliche. The culprit turns out to be someone who was least suspected all along.

Well, a typical cliche in pulp fiction is the damsel in distress. You know, the helpless female character who constantly needs to be rescued by the hero. And then there's the evil mastermind who is always plotting some elaborate scheme in a secret lair. Plus, the use of cheesy one - liners during fight scenes is quite common too. For example, 'You'll pay for what you've done!' kind of lines.

Well, time travel paradoxes are a bit of a cliche in science fiction. You know, like going back in time and accidentally changing something that has a huge impact on the future. Also, the 'dystopian future' where society has completely fallen apart and there's a lone hero trying to fix it. And the 'mysterious alien artifact' that holds the key to some great power or knowledge is quite overused too.

Mad Immortal

I've transmigrated and picked up a 'small bottle' that can accumulate spiritual liquid to hasten the growth of spiritual herbs. Humph. It was a standard mortal opening… Wasn't it going to take off? The corners of my mouth curled up slightly as I began to cultivate. - I sat cross-legged, circulating my cultivation technique. I took a deep breath, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. I don't look like a human. That's a phenomenon that occurs after becoming an immortal. I was mumbling, and there were whispers in my ears. They were communicating with all things in the world. The villagers said I was crazy. Let them be! Anyway, I'm probably going to become an immortal…
