* Jerkass: [[EnfanteTerrible As a child,]] Prince Kasim would routinely pick up girls from off the street so he "befriend" them, which meant gloating to them about his status, having them abused by his guards for no reason, and belittling and demoralizing them every turn, only to toss them out and get a new girl once he was done with the last. As an adult, he's gotten even worse. In the same time period, Rachwan is a disgraced ProudWarriorRaceGuy who embodies a lack of honor, fleecing the person he's supposed to be protecting for basic food and supplies, attacking and robbing them when they don't, and robbing people without pity. He bites off more than he can chew with the last one, however.

Since she was the combat mage's star apprentice this hits her hard, even if she was disillusioned by how repressive and snobbish they were.

* AntiHero: Everyone but Geron fits the bill. Sadja is a hero who is only out for personal glory, and is willing to do anything (mostly good things, at least) to get it. The Staff is callous and mostly cares for self preservation, and even after CharacterDevelopment he remains just as callous. The BloodKnight soldiers fighting the demonic army in the past and HolierThanThou clerics who refuse to help them are at odds, but both have their negative and positive traits. Bryda is restless and looking for excitement, but is still a more traditionally heroic character [[spoiler: until her desire to change the world for the better leads to her nearly causing the end of it.]]
* DemonicPossession: Not ''demonic'' per se, but in order to [[spoiler: [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor grant her wish,]] the Djinn of Time possessed Bryda - ousting her mind and using her as a conduit to spread reality-altering magic over the entire world.

* CrueltyIsTheOnlyOption: No matter what, Sadja has to use the petrification spell on one of the council member in order to keep her hands on the helmet. She never changes him back either, though it's at least implied that the spell is reversible by other means.
* FriendOnTheForce: Bryda, though in the magical military rather than the police. When a misunderstanding makes her order go after innocent people, the two have to do a lot of manipulating to keep anyone from getting hurt without costing her her position, [[spoiler: which they fail to do.]]
* GlorySeeker: Sadja, who when it comes right down to it is doing all of her heroic deeds not ''necessarily'' to defeat evil, but so that she will be remembered for all time. She's a heroic example and clearly does care about doing right by people, its a very clear and exploitable FatalFlaw, and in the end [[spoiler: she utterly fails, though she gets a second chance a few hundred years later]]. Likewise, The Djinn of Time's actions are truly benevolent from his point of view, in that his gifts prevent people from having to suffer loss and pain, but he clearly has a chip on his shoulder from being Satinav's minion and it's clear that just like Sadja he mostly did it so that people will see him as even greater than his boss.

As an adult, he's gotten even worse. In the same time period, Rachwan is a disgraced ProudWarriorRaceGuy who embodies a lack of honor, fleecing the person he's supposed to be protecting for basic food and supplies, attacking and robbing them when they don't, and robbing people without pity. He bites off more than he can chew with the last one, however.
* JerkassGods: Played with. The Djinn of Time describes Satinav as cruel and petty, but he ultimately comes off more as a RulesLawyer without pity. It is his job to keep causality straight, and thus he refuses to alter history no matter how badly mortals have suffered and takes swift punishment on those who circumvent the timestream - he only ever takes action against those who are attempting to mess with reality in the first place. On the flipside, The Djinn of Time himself [[spoiler: nearly gives Kasim the power to rule the world and nearly allows Bryda's wish to radically alter reality,]] but that's because he's entirely neutral about who he gives his boons to - his wish is to actually ''help'' people by removing the pain of loss.
