Added DiffLines:

* AffablyEvil: Even when he opposes Henry, he's still as genial as ever.


Added DiffLines:

* MissedHimByThatMuch: In [[spoiler:''Toppat 4 Life'']], Henry flies right past very fast, but Galeforce didn't see him and never figured out that Henry was still alive after being presumed dead, or that he was responsible for the Big Boy rampage that forced the government to retreat.


Added DiffLines:

* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler:Letting Henry go in the "Pure Blooded Thief" ending of ''Airship'' was done by him as a result of arresting the Toppats being a bigger priority in that moment, even though Henry still is a criminal and even stole the Ruby the Toppat Clan had]].


Added DiffLines:

* ToBeLawfulOrGood: Briefly encounters this in the [[spoiler:''Thief'']] ending of ''Airship''. Charles asks Galeforce for orders on how to deal with Henry, who did not accomplish his mission (at least not in the way the government intended) because he got sidetracked by the Romanian Ruby and stole it. Galeforce responds by letting Henry go, citing "We got what we came for. He's not worth the trouble." and goes on to help arresting the Toppats instead.


Added DiffLines:

* TheUnfought: Galeforce is never directly confronted by Henry (or Ellie) in the routes where they oppose the government.

The Government is a heroic faction playing a major role in ''Infiltrating the Airship'' and ''Completing the Mission''. If Henry (and possibly Ellie) chooses to side with them to bring down the Toppat Clan, he (they) would receive a pardon for their previous crimes or possibly a promotion, depending on the route taken.

Added DiffLines:

* MagneticHero: Downplayed. He's able to recruit Henry (and potentially Ellie) a few times in order to help the government deal with the Toppats, and the general's honest character no doubt had a role in them accepting the jobs.
