* TheScrappy: Rongeir was universally despised for having no purpose other than spouting disturbing, incestuous dialogue regarding his daughter. The hate for him reached the point that Kris admitted that [[CreatorsPest he hated him too]], and as such he was outright removed from the mod in 2022.

* CompleteMonster: Korrilan, a "tailor" in Riften, has perfected the ability to BodySurf, transferring his soul between bodies to stay alive, and also just when he tires of wearing his current "outfit." How does he get bodies? He uses a modified Black Soul Gem creation process and healing magics to trick the souls of living beings into leaving their bodies, rendering them {{Soulless Shell}}s for him to use as he likes. It's implied he's done this across Tamriel for years if not decades, has gone through several victims in the process, and has killed others who found out his secret and tried to stop him. As he calmly explains all this to you, he not only refers to the braindead bodies he uses as "clothes," but treats them as dismissively as though they were, having you kill his current host body without a care so he can demonstrate his ability.

* CompleteMonster:
** [=S'Vashni=]. A complete and utter sociopath, she has spent her entire life murdering innocent people and stealing their secrets. When one man, a Blade, offered her his hospitality and training, she brutally murdered him purely out of spite for him [[DontYouDarePityMe daring to pity her]]. And that's just her backstory. In the actual mod, she intends to desecrate one of the last Blades strongholds purely so she can profane her former master's SecretArt and use it for her own murderous agenda. Unempathetic, cruel, and utterly disdainful of all life, [=S'Vashni=] is an utter sadist whose only desire in life is to kill.

* EnsembleDarkhorse: Well, the mod as a whole could be counted as this, seeing as how popular it is, but among it there are a few characters who stand out:
** [[StepfordSmiler Zora Fair-Child]], the [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} odd]], cheerful barbarian whose beauty was ravaged years ago and whose character arc is all about coming to terms with it.
** [[SadClown Rumarin]], the ultra-sarcastic high elven "Bladebinder" [[BlackSheep who]] ''[[BlackSheep sucks]]'' [[BlackSheep at any form of magic that isn't Conjuration]] and who learns how to [[BeYourself Be Himself]].
** [[KnightInShiningArmor Anum-La]], the jovial, wandering Argonian knight who enjoys teasing everyone she meets and who has to deal with the lose of her TrueCompanions.
