History Characters / FearAndHunger

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: There's nothing stopping the player from using The Girl to get something. Giving her to Pocketcat in exchange for a powerful item, sacrificing her to the Lady of Moon to restore lost limbs, can be sacrificed at a Ritual Circle, and she can be fed to the Human Hydra solely to get an extra line of dialogue.

* YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm: As it turns out, [[spoiler:the Gro-goroth you see is only ''a trace'' of the god's existence. Showing his full and true form would've likely caused the player to become mad]].

* AnArmAndALeg: Is made completely harmless if his left arm is cut off. [[spoiler:If he gets his hands on the player, a scene plays were he cuts off the player's limbs among other things.]]

* SignificantAnagram: "Trortur" is just two letters away from forming "Torturer", his current profession.

A war hero turned depraved sadist.

* AnArmAndALeg: Is made completely harmless if his left arm is cut off. [[If he gets his hands on the player, a scene plays were he cuts off the player's limbs among other things.]]

* CripplingCastration: [[In the torture scene with the player, he mutilates the player's "dirty sinful parts".]]

* DidntNeedThoseAnyway: [[ "Where you are going - you got no need for arms. Chop-chop".]]

* TortureTechnician: Has a vast variety of tools used for torture

AnArmAndALeg: Is made completely harmless if his left arm is cut off. [[If he gets his hands on the player, a scene plays were he cuts off the player's limbs among other things.]]
CripplingCastration: [[In the torture scene with the player, he mutilates the player's "dirty sinful parts".]]
DidntNeedThoseAnyway: [[ "Where you are going - you got no need for arms. Chop-chop".]]
KarmicInjury: Can happen if the player chooses to cut off all of his limbs before going for his head or torso.

WouldHurtAChild: According the journal of Captain Rudimer, Trortur is not above torturing children.

[[folder:Celeste]]
Cahara's lover back home, a prostitute.

* {{Necromancer:}} One of his default abilities is to reanimate corpses to have them fight for him.

* Necromancer: One of his default abilities is to reanimate corpses to have them fight for him.

* AndIMustScream: ''Termina'' has O'saa find him burnt to a crisp and completely blinded, having possibly been stuck in the dungeon for years, [[spoiler:and implying that ending B is canon and that he's been burnt by Gro-Goroth's traces]]. If you get to ''Termina's'' ending B, [[spoiler:O'saa just dumps him into a lake for any random schmuck to find]].

* TearOffYourFace: One of her arms can rip your face off and wear it [[Film/TexasChainsawMassacre Leatherface style]] for a OneHitKill.

* MonsterModesty: Subverted; they wear loincloths alright, [[BiggusDickus but]]...

* CannibalClan: His Wolfmask cult engage in [[ImAHumanitarian cannibalism]] and self-mutilation, is a grisly counterpart to the Bunnymask cult of Sylvian. This craving for flesh is potent enough to ensnare individuals and push them into a state of madness, and the player can join this feast to erase all hunger.

* ICannotSelfTerminate: If threatened, they will tell that they want to die.

* MagikarpPower: When you first recruit her, the girl is pretty much a helpless whelp who can't even deal physical damage unless she's given one of the three weapons in the entire game that she's allowed to equip. On that same note, she's also capable of learning from ''any'' of the spell or skill scrolls found throughout the dungeon, allowing you to turn her into a very powerful sorceress if you play your cards right.

* VirtuousCharacterCopy: [[spoiler:[[DamnedByFaintPraise In a way that's only twistedly befitting]] for a CrapsackWorld like ''Fear & Hunger''. Le'garde is clearly a Griffith expy who ends up becoming a DeityOfHumanOrigin like Griffith had, but their end goals are radically different; while Griffith was a DevilInPlainSight who was ultimately driven by his [[{{Narcissist}} capricious self-absorbed behavior]] and [[ItsAllAboutMe singular desire]] to [[AmbitionIsEvil rule his own kingdom]], to the point of [[BloodbathVillainOrigin massacring everyone he's ever led]], taking Guts's [[EyeScream eye]] and [[AnArmAndALeg arm]], and [[RapeLeadsToInsanity raping Casca into insanity]], Le'garde [[WellIntentionedExtremist genuinely cares about making the world a better place]], is [[UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans driven by his desire to see a kingdom united through peace and compassion]], and noticeably refuses to take any sexual advantage of D'arce, [[IgnoredEnamoredUnderling even if she offers herself up to him]]. Granted, none of this exactly halts his descent into becoming [[FallenHero the Kaiser]] come ''Termina'', but we're already talking about a substantially more morally-grey character compared to the [[TheSociopath unrepentant sociopathy]] of Griffith]].

* BarbarianLonghair: Sports a nice set of long red hair, fitting of somebody of his strength and stature.

* PosthumanNudism: Since it's clothes get destroyed by the ritual, the Marriage is constantly nude. This is [[JustifiedTrope justified]] for the Abominable Marriage, as it's body is too large to fit into human clothes.

* ArcherArchetype: A skilled marksman and survivalist who can snipe enemies with his bow to damage or kill them before having to engage in combat. Slightly subverts the trope by also possessing elements of TheBerserker with his enormous strength and UnstoppableRage.

* OutOfCharacterAlert: In ''Termina'', he normally dismisses nearly everyone as maggots. [[spoiler:So when he drops the act and tells you to be careful with August, it adds further fuel to August being more than than he seems to be.]]

* WakeUpCallBoss: PlayedWith. Players who have made it long enough into the game to start to encounter him have probably managed to learn at least enough the game's systems to be able to see through and work around at least some of the dirty tricks it will use against them. The Crow Mauler, however, is there to teach them the lesson that even if they think they have mastered the basics of the game and gotten wise to how it can screw them over, it will ''always'' be able to pull out a much nastier curveball to throw at them. Not only does his torso have a ludicrously high HP pool, the Crow Mauler has an insta-kill attack and can deal massive damage coupled with very dangerous status effects such as [[SickeningCrunch broken bones]] and [[EyeScream permanent blindness]].

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: In ''[[VideoGame/FearAndHungerTermina Termina]]'', the fate of D'arce, Ragnvaldr, and Enki are accounted for in different ways. [[SavedByCanon Enki and Ragnvaldr]] are essentially confirmed to have survived the dungeons given the existence of the former's Skin Bibles and the latter's descendant, [[spoiler:August]]. While there isn't anything mentioning or hinting at D'arce having survived the dungeons, her S-Ending is implied to have happened and [[NiceJobBreakingItHero may even had a hand in the events leading to Termina]]. Cahara, though, gets no mention whatsoever — directly or indirectly — in the sequel, [[spoiler:although the presence of the God of Fear and Hunger, plus the other playable characters being preoccupied, do faintly hint that he ended up dead as a result of the God of Fear and Hunger's ascension, making his kindness to The Girl and her ascended form his true legacy]].

* FragileSpeedster: Can notably acquire both the Escape Plan skill (which makes running from fights significantly easier) and En Garde (which allows for a free opening turn to attack whatever enemy you're fighting). This makes it entirely possible for Cahara and allies to trivialize nearly every fight by cutting out an enemy's legs, retreating, and then fighting them again and targeting their now-easily hit head.

* Foil: The four main ones each stand as archetypes to one of the four player characters:
** Cahera and Nilvan share their soul type, that being the soul of the endless..
** Francóis and D'arce share their soul type, that of the soul of domination.
** Valteil and Enki share their soul type, that being the soul of the enlightened
