* GunshipRescue: Subverted. During Durian's rampage, a T'au Piranha gunship shows up to reinforce the museum's security and Sha'kanthas notes that the gunship actually has firepower capable of penetrating Space Marine armor. Unfortunately, Durian also seems of aware of this and immediately attacks the gunship, sending it crashing into a wall before it can save the day.

* UnderestimatingBadassery: One of the T'au Fire Caste cadets expresses skepticism that the Imperium could be such a threat upon noticing how the frozen Space Marine is using primitive weapons like a sword and shield. After Durian is freed, the cadets are given first-class seats to how dangerous a Space Marine can be as he tears through museum security, slices through a Piranha gunship, and eventually kills the same cadet.

* NormalFishInATinyPond: Downplayed. While Space Marines are the Imperium's most elite soldiers, they are considered fairly normal to most of the galaxy's major players like the Eldar, Necrons, or Tyranids. Against the T'au museum's lightly-armed security forces, a single Space Marine is a nigh-unstoppable monstrosity that easily tears through everything they have. In fact, Sha'kanthas only wins because Kha'linthra was able to distract Durian at the last second during their battle.

* BrokenPedestal: Played with. As Farsight's mentor, Sha'kanthas disapproved of his pupil's independent nature and disliked how quickly he was being promoted through the Fire Caste's ranks. During the Damocles Gulf Crusade, he even tried to sabotage Farsight's military career, which led to him being forced to go on a suicide mission against the Scar Lords when his gambit failed. However, he still respected Farsight as a paragon of the Greater Good and was shocked to learn of his betrayal. When Farsight contacts him over the radio to offer tips on defeating Durian, Sha'kanthas initially refuses to "disgrace himself" by listening and only follows his advice after Durian murders a T'au child.
