* AmicableExes: Divorced from King Urtica due to RealPolitik. Still, she is ''not'' happy concerning Urtica's response to the entire Duet fiasco and the aftermath, namely keeping the book with the names of the guilty, and promising to take more direct measures to rout further corruption from the Church of Rem.



* DidNotSeeThatComing: Both Peonie's interference in the Duet, and King Urtica's response caught her completely flat-footed.



* AmazonChaser: Says he doesn't particularly like weak and useless women. A woman whose company he shared with as mentioned under DirtyOldMan was one in charge of assassins that he said might have poisoned a glass of wine she gave to him but assumed he was resistant to it (she insisted a poison she would use for such purposes would not give him the opportunity)

* TheAtoner: Typhan-Knee is deeply ashamed of his behavior in her DarkAndTroubledPast, and is desperately trying to make amends for it.



* FreudianExcuse: Typh's father was a real nasty piece of work and filled the young boy's head with a lot of badly misogynistic thinking and horribly skewed SocialDarwinism. After being exiled from his tribe because his father tried to murder him for coming to the horrific [[DoubleStandardRapeMaleOnMale logical conclusion of all his father's teachings,]] and being hit with Faden's curse, Typh has come to learn just how wrong the guy was, and is trying to make things right.
