Heroes
David McCarthy/Dredge
- Berserk Button: For some reason, he's fine when any other girl is insulted. However, when someone insults Millet, he gets serious.
- Came Back Strong: Naturally, becoming undead has made him much more powerful.
- Came Back Wrong: He's an undead that only wants to see Lucanar's final breath of agony.
- Chivalrous Pervert: He has lewd drawings of Millet. Of course, when a drunk fool tried something during Millet's act, he was ready to run him through.
- Lame Pun Reaction: The pun in question was so bad that he forced a zombie to kill himself for hearing it.
- Let's Get Dangerous!: Once he stopped insulting undead, he kicked ass and took names.
- Pay Evil unto Evil: He acquired several of Lucanar's undead slaves with which to exact revenge on him.
- Revenge Before Reason: He'll see Lucanar dead, no matter the cost.
- Spoony Bard: Bard is his class, and he's also a Chivalrous Pervert. Someone that is completely true to the name, perhaps?
- Taking the Bullet: He got in the way of a Death Knight to save Millet.
- Who's Laughing Now?: He was kind of a Butt-Monkey among the group, although respected. As Dredge, he almost killed Dag.
Rosemary McCarthy
- Actual Pacifist: She gets sick at the sight of violence.
- The Empath: She can manipulate minds and emotions.
- The Heart: Pacifist that hates violence, the only physical attack she has knocks her enemies out.
- Yandere: She may seem stable, but she's definitely not right in the head.
Dagnyryan Viscarian, Paladin of Nathan
- Berserk Button: Never insult his family or loyalty. Or his sexuality, for that matter.
- Colossus Climb: Dag did this to get in the face of a giant woman and punch her in the snout to establish superiority.
- Cutting the Knot: Stopped a swinging log by using his sword instead of letting the Rogue handle it.
- Made of Iron: First he's able to Stone Wall against the undead, and then he survives getting crushed between the ceiling and steel, which squished the paladin that was with him.
- Stone Wall: He was able to hold off three undead heroes and a Cultist at the same time.
- Stupid Sacrifice: Tried to hold off three undead heroes and a cultist when he really didn't need to.
Arthiel
- Bounty Hunter: Before she met the group she chased down and turned criminals in. Too bad it resulted in her brainwashing.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Arthiel was one of the elves brainwashed by Illivar.
- Eyepatch of Power: Gotta get something to cover the hole where the eye she ate was.
- Improvised Weapon: Arthiel used Illivar's Peregrine Falcon's beak, as well as the rest of the animal, to inflict some of the more unsavory tortures upon him.
- Lightning Bruiser: First round she's shooting you from thirty yards away, next round she's lobbing off your head.
- You Can Run, but You Can't Hide: Arthiel would chase Illivar to the ends of the earth to get her revenge.
Rissien
- Dude Looks Like a Lady: He looks really feminine. Enough that even women mistake him as female.
- Enemy Within: Rissien contracted Lycanthropy during a fight with werewolves.
- Grievous Harm with a Body: Rissien was used as a greatclub.
- Love Triangle: Rissien and Vhara are the main pair, with Rosemary acting as the third angle.
- Nice Guy: He was the only one to be hospitable to David after the Bar Brawl.
- The Pollyanna: No matter what happens he keeps positive.
Millet Belferes
- Action Girl: She's a woman performer that froze a guy's dick off, and froze several zombies not long after.
- Badass Boast: After the Priest badmouths the recently deceased David, she goes into a tirade, asking them if "you feel the chill of death creeping into your bodies?"
- Berserk Button: Calling her flat or insulting the now deceased David will end very badly for the speaker.
- Heroic BSoD: She became really unresponsive right after David's sacrifice, but was temporarily snapped out of it when the Priest badmouthed David.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: Ludical's Invert Resistance sure did turn Millet's Mass Resistance around on her.
- Ice Queen: She both uses ice and tends to be pretty callus to her fellow workers.
- Knife-Throwing Act: One of her tricks was throwing an illusory knife towards a wall, make it disappear and return it to her hand.
- Tranquil Fury: Her entire tirade against the priest that badmouths David is spoken in a monotone voice, and she barely even flinches when she gets slammed into the ceiling by the same attack that squished a paladin.
- Unable to Cry: She's like this for some time until she goes into a tirade of all the horrible things that have happened to them since they first arrived at the half-elf village where the place started.
- Unstoppable Rage: An elven Archer hit Millet twice with arrows. Millet responded by beating her within an inch of her life with her bare hands.
Mira Belferes
- Blood Knight: "Can't we just get to the fighting already?!"
- Double Knockout: Mira and the Duke were the last two still drinking, and both passed out at the same time.
Vhara
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Vhara was one of the elves brainwashed by Illivar.
- Can't Hold His Liquor: It didn't take long for Vhara to pass out drunk.
- Faux Action Girl: Vhara really hasn't done any fighting with her mace.
- Succubi and Incubi: She's a succubus.
Armok
- Fastball Special: Armok threw Vice right over the heads of a pack of Werewolves to help stop the ritual that was taking place.
- Made of Iron: Considering what they had to do to contain him in Erathis, he may or may not be made of Indestructium instead.
Duke Desertstings Sandstone of House Sandstone
- Big Damn Heroes: He shows up to deliver the beat down on Xanfire right after he becomes a dragon.
- Double Knockout: Mira and the Duke were the last two still drinking, and both passed out at the same time.
- Dynamic Entry: And what an entry, bludgeoning a dragon!
Donarr
- City Guards: Only authority in the town before hell broke loose.
- Knight in Sour Armor: He's a good guy, but very cynical.
- Thanks for the Mammary: Groped an elven valkyrie to shove her in Dag's way.
Villains
Illivar and The "Resistance"
- Cold-Blooded Torture: Arthiel, Vhara, and Millet ensured that not even a remnant of a remnant remained of the sick bastard that was Illivar.
- Creepy Crossdresser: Looting his tent, the party found woman's clothes.
- Depraved Bisexual: Illivar. So much so that his soul is going to be used as the aspect of Lust for the seven deadly sins by a cult.
- Dirty Coward: He ran when things turned for the worse.
- Verbal Tic: The Fanatics have this problem, Zam.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Illivar genuinely means well. Too bad he's batshit insane.
- You Can Run, but You Can't Hide: Arthiel would chase Illivar to the ends of the earth to get her revenge.
Priest Lucius, High Judicar Halvard and The Church of Erathis
- "Blackmail" Is Such an Ugly Word: Lucius stresses that it isn't blackmail to say that he won't go to jail if he kills the anarchists.
- Extra-ore-dinary: The Priest uses earth and metal based attacks.
- Heel–Face Turn: Halvard calls Lucius a giant prick and renounces him. Shortly thereafter a great amount of cheering was had.
- Hopeless Boss Fight: The guards are twice the party's level and can OHKO them.
- Never Speak Ill of the Dead: The priest started talking badly about David, and royally pisses off everyone that knew him.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Lucius shit-talking the deceased David pulls Millet out of a Heroic BSoD to go on a rampage against him and his followers.
- Religion of Evil: Intolerant of other gods, and kept throwing adventurers at a group resisting the church.
Sepian The Pirate King And Pirates
- Parrying Bullets: He deflects arrows into his arm.
- Stay in the Kitchen: The Gnoll Thugs don't seem to respect women much... Until said women obliterate their manhoods.
- Villainous Valor: If there's one thing Sepian did until the end, he didn't try taking a coward's way out.
Lucanar The Fire Mage, Vincent The Death Knight, And The Death Crusade Cult
- Disney Villain Death: Vincent died from falling to the ground after getting shot off of his dracolich by the resident badass Arthiel.
- Dragon-in-Chief: Lucanar has been the one fucking with the party the whole time. The only time we've seen his boss the Death Knight was when he heralded in the Cerebus Syndrome.
- Fallen Hero: Vincent used to be a righteous Paladin of justice. Then he rose up again as a Death Knight.
- Marathon Boss: Not because of Lucifer having a billion HP, but because the opening attack by a player targeted all of the enemies in the vicinity. In the end it all added up to be around 6 hours.
Xanfire the Dragonborn worshipper of Tiamat
- Dirty Coward: He's such a pansy that the moment the group confronted him he called on Tiamat to save his sorry ass.
- Fake Ultimate Hero: He managed to bluff well enough to convince the city that he was a great hero, and Arthiel an evil villain.
- Scaled Up: Apparently Tiamat liked the coward enough to turn him into a dragon when he cried for help.
Sidheach, The Slothful Werewolf
