* FamedInStory: Apparently, Druid Girl is a ''huge'' fan of a famed Rhea Adventurer called "Burglar" who stole a ''massive'' fortune once and Guild Girl at one point even recalls the a Rhea Adventurer called "Burglar" as an Adventurer of great fame. Whether Burglar and the "Burglar" from these stories are one in the same is one of the great mysteries about him.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: In the past, he was a powerful warrior whom even veterans respected, during a time when adventuring itself was considered a far more dangerous career prospect compared to its modern iteration. [[spoiler:Volume 8 shows that he has not lost his edge]].

* DefiledForever: Discussed about her; although the goblins from the Dungeon of the Dead were under strict orders to leave her untouched to use as a VirginSacrifice, after she was rescued the conspiring nobleman thought about leaking the story of her kidnapping because people would naturally assume she was assaulted anyway and it would be a massive loss of face for the royal siblings, as a consolation prize for the failed offering.

* TheFettered: Considers himself and Samurai Captain to be on another level ethically as well as martially over the other adventurers for being the leaders of two of the only parties that are actually trying to put an end to the Dungeon of the Dead instead of keeping the loot train going. Samurai Captain thinks he's a little [[HolierThanThou sanctimonious]] about it, [[TheHypocrite despite repeatedly thinking almost exactly the same thing in his internal monologues]].

* MagicFeather: Downplayed; Wizard Boy gives her tournament armor a white paint and polish-job as a good luck charm for her bout against the belittling paladin, and while she is deeply gratified by the gesture, the bigger intended effect was to dazzle the onlookers, which was accomplished to the point several people thought he had somehow managed to enchant her equipment.
