* HumansAreBastards: ''Everyone'' in Carleon except for [[spoiler: The First Hero]] is like this. Disregard for ethics, dogma and demagoguery abound, the military is corrupt and self-serving, and the clergy are worshiping a human-created monstrosity as their god.

* HumansAreBastards: ''Everyone'' in Carleon except for [[spoiler: The First Hero]] is like this. Disregard for ethics, dogma and demagoguery abound, the military is corrupt and self-serving, and the clergy are worshiping a human-created monstrosity as their god. However, [[spoiler:the First Hero's past in the Dark Mirror expansion reveals that many demons used to attack humanity frequently, ignored the First Hero's initial attempts to end conflicts peacefully (the previous demon king even murdered the First Hero's comrades despite the First Hero's showing mercy during their first encounter), and only cried for peace when humanity started fighting back so FantasticRacism definitely went both ways.]]
* WorldsStrongestMan: This is definitely the case for the First Hero. The titular Skul needs to empower himself through multiple trinkets and skulls of legendary creatures just to stand the chance against the First Hero [[spoiler:in his old SecretlyDying state]]. This gets even more impressive in the expansion where [[spoiler:the First Hero manages to destroy three clones of himself powered by Dark Quartz so Skul can focus on Alexander, the true BigBad]]. One must wonder how powerful he must have been in his prime.

Also, whoever was responsible for the conspiracy that killed Skul in life and drove the First Hero mad is still at large.]]

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler:The Emperor is defeated, finally ending his insane, genocidal campaign against the Demon Kingdom, and the First Hero, having miracously survived his own final battle with Skul, makes peade with the Demon Kingdom. However, Skul chooses not to tell the First Hero that he's his reborn son so as not to break his heart further, meaning that the First Hero still believes he failed his son and committed so many crimes to "avenge" him. Not only that, but he's shown to still be sick, meaning he likely doesn't have much longer to live. On the sweet side, peace between Demons and Humans is finally established, and TheStinger shows Skul and the First Hero bonding, suggesting that at the very least, the First Hero will be able to spend his remaining days with his son, even if he doesn't know it.]]

added Hero With Bad Publicity example
Added DiffLines:
* HeroWithBadPublicity: While fighting through Carleon to rescue the Demon King certainly lends Skul no end of ire from the Carleon Army and their supporters throughout the course of the game, the ending shows that [[spoiler: he ''remains'' on bad terms with the country when the Demon King ends the war and Harmonia is united. This is because he's been vilified among adventurers as a deadly foe and mistaken for the Demon King in exaggerated tales]]. The Witch muses that he'll likely need to defend himself against many more zealous heroes as a result.

Adventurers also sometimes drop healing potions which restore a specific percentage of Skul's health dependent on their size.
