* ShootTheMageFirst: This is mentioned as a disadvantage wizards have, and why they don't get involved directly in battle since they're immediately targeted (Walter compares it with a flamethrower operator-since everyone knows they pose a danger, they've got to be taken out very quickly). In one book a wizard doesn't abide by this, casting a powerful spell but then being [[HumanPincushion filled with arrows]] (it's a {{heroic sacrifice}} as he knew the danger).

* RescueSex: Female slaves often react to being rescued from slavery by having sex with their male rescuers. Walter in fact met his wife Kahri this way. It worked out poorly in the long run though, as due to her trauma over having been gang-raped before this by slavers, she associates him with the events later and can't stand even a simple touch from him.
