History Characters / ImTheEvilLordOfAnIntergalacticEmpire

* Psychopomp: Liam's dog was supposed to accompany his soul to the afterlife but the Guide ruined that. Instead he goes out of his way to ensure that Liam is taken care of and makes the Guide's life miserable as possible by [[SpannerInTheWorks ruining his plans]] and all the praises that Liams sings will [[LaserGuidedKarma hurt as painful as possible.]]

* {{Foreshadowing}}: In a scene from Katerina Razel's POV, Peter boasts that he's [[BiggusDickus getting bigger down there]]. Not long after, it's revealed he caught the groin-exploding STD.

* AsiansLoveTea: As a former Japanese man, he often has Amagi bring him tea and sometimes coffee in his office.

* WoundedGazelleWarcry: He reveals a hideous scar going across his chest and abdomen diagonally to explain why he proclaimed "I can no longer fight" when Gudwar showed up targeting both him and Liam. He lets his first "School of the Flash" disciple come to the conclusion that there's an even greater monster than Gudwar out there somewhere, as Liam honestly believes that Yatsushi is actually light-years ahead of him as a swordsman and for Yatsushi to be that badly wounded in battle, the enemy has to be truly impressive indeed. [[spoiler: The truth of the matter is that his wife gave him that wound by coming at him with a meat-cleaver, off-screen, at one point.]]

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: In her past she was avoided by others due to her wild and incultured behavior with the only person not being afraid of her being Rosetta's ancestor, which is why she is so kind to Rosetta and considers her worthy of being Liam's fiancee.

* HyperAwareness: Liam recognizes her potential when she was able to see the pattern on his sword as he was drawing and sheathing.

[[folder:Shishigami Fuuka and Satsuki Riho]]

* {{BFS}}: Rinho wields a katana that's about as long as she's tall.
* BustContrastDuo: Fuuka is very curvy and Rinho is slender.
* CurbStompBattle: They each took on a entire sword school all by themselves. They're on the receiving end of this by Liam.
* DualWielding: Unlike Rinho, Fuuka wields two swords.

* PhoneaholicTeenager: Rinho, who's also an influencer as "everyone's favorite swordswoman idol".
* SirSwearsalot

* ValleyGirl: Rinho talks like this.

* CavalryBetrayal: Plotted to have his pirates attack Liam and then "arrive too late" to save him.

[[folder:Cecil Sera Exner]]

* RightForTheWrongReasons: Since she thinks Liam's a scoundrel, when he gives Rosetta a budget so she can build herself a knight order of bodyguards, Cecil advises Rosetta to build a small, yet highly competent and mobile fleet and feeds into Rosetta's drive to engage in acts of charity to build up her personal reputation, so she'd have many places to run and hide when Liam "shows his true colors". ''This is precisely what Liam wants'' as he wants his future bride to be safe from the enemies of the Banfield house.

* IronicName: His given name is derived from the Polish name "[[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casimir Casimir/Kazimierz]]" meaning "proclaimer of peace", yet Casimilo indulges in WarForFunAndProfit.

* PyrrhicVictory: He was so focused on his criminal activities, handing out his sons Baron titles and a planet each to rule upon reaching majority, even if he had to steal it from a nearby noble, killing the poor sod's entire population, friends and family in the process, to then kill the patriarch last, that he let his territory go to pot, especially once he started sacrificing planets to mass-produce elixirs trying to keep his economy afloat after starting an economic war upon Liam who can generate infinite wealth. His citizens are much better off with him dead.

** Though he's initially a largely useless hanger-on mooching off of Liam's wealth, in volume 6 he turns out to have a knack for event-planning. Even he's surprised how good at it he is.

* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Dearly misses her father. It doesn't help that her mother's a deadbeat and her biological father abandoned them. Liam admits despite that man being naïve like his past self, [[ObliviousToHisOwnDescription he's a better father than Liam was]].

* EarnYourHappyEnding: After her brief adventure comes to an end, she remembers Liam's advice to "take charge of her own life". She manages to get in contact with her maternal grandparents and have them take custody of her after they permanently cut ties with her mother. Now freed from any irresponsible parents, Kanami is able to focus on her studies and hope for a better future.

** She spends more than a week in Aarl, but when she's transported home, she finds that no time has passed since her summoning.

* PartingWordsRegret: She hurt her father's feelings by saying she wanted a new dad. He died shortly after.

* BigGood: The ''true'' reason why Liam’s life, and by extension, the Empire’s went well,

* EarnYourHappyEnding: After her brief adventure comes to an end, she remembers Liam's advice to "take charge of her own life". She manages to get in contact with her maternal grandparents and permanently cut ties with her mother after moving in with them. No longer burdened by her mother, Kanami is able to focus on her studies and hope for a better future.

* [[spoiler:InstantAIJustAddWater: It starts to gain sentience after Liam inserts the Machine Heart into it.]]

* TransformingMecha: Just for fun, Liam had Nias put a full battleship in Avid's hammer-space. When The Guide used the "come to life" artifact on Dolph's flagship and it transformed into a mecha, Liam put this option into play...

* AllTakeAndNoGive: The reason why she told Liam she wanted a new father. She gets better.

* NarniaTime: Liam died in Japan when she was a few years old. When they reunite, she's now a high-schooler while Liam is nearly 100 years old in his new life.

** According to The Guide, he's the first to ever threaten his existence, and Liam remains completely oblivious.

* HiddenDepths: Though he's initially a largely useless hanger-on mooching off of Liam's wealth, in volume 6 he turns out to have a knack for event-planning. Even he's surprised how good at it he is.

* SitcomArchNemesis: Eila dislikes Wallace for leeching off Liam, and supposedly getting in the way of her [[ShipperOnDeck LiaKur ship]]. Otherwise, she's friendly to everyone else.

* HardWorkHardlyWorks: {{Justified|Trope}}. She works herself to exhaustion just trying to keep up with the other students. Each of them have had extensive BrainComputerInterface prep, while her family was too poor to afford more than the bare minimum of that. When she finally gets the same educational advantages as everyone else, she proves entirely competent.

* TheBully: While he was in "elementary school", he was fond of throwing his weight around, either by wielding his family name or by attacking with his lackeys.

[[folder:Casimilo Berkeley]]

* RevengeMyopia: He rallies his entire family to wage a bloody jihad on Liam for killing his "precious" son Derrick, when even his family states that Liam's right to kill him, both because it was self-defense and because Derrick is a little creep who couldn't manage his assets and resources properly, even costing the family a precious MacGuffin.

* GenderBender: Subverted. She was born a girl but pretended to be gender-swapped by his mother as an infant. When in reality (Vol. 10 Ch. 11) it is revealed the she has only been dressing as and pretending to be man. It is also further stated that it is the reclusive life in the palace that made it possible, and that if they had to leave the palace she would have been found out easily.

The Protagonist.

[[caption-width-right:240: [[labelnote: Click for [[spoiler:Lillie]]]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lillie_37.png]] [[/labelnote]]

** He swaps Liam's stats with Peter Peetack's when both go to Razel House's academy, which causes Liam to be assigned to the "commoners' course". This provides Liam with the challenge he seeks in education, and gets him lots of practical knowledge he wouldn't have gotten in the other course (which is mostly aimed at entertaining the high nobles it hosts). Plus, it puts him in contact with Kurt (who becomes Liam's first friend and a powerful ally) and keeps Liam from the messes Peter got into. And revealing his role in this change gives Liam such a good mood that he decides to back off on the first measure to anger his people.
** He spends nearly the last dredges of his power to set up an alliance between pirates and House Peetack. Liam's fleet crushes them, getting not only a lot of valuables, but increasing his fame.

* DisownedParent: Liam didn't particularly care or recognize them anyway, but he officially severs ties with them after they insult Amagi and demand more money.

* BabiesEverAfter: She does eventually manage to get Liam to impregnate her, AndThereWasMuchRejoicing from Liam's territory. She later on gives birth to a son, Edward Sara Banfield.

* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Golden-haired blonde and a good woman who is completely devoted to Liam. She is even nice to Amagi when they first met and treated her like a mother in law, even giving her a simple gift of a braided cord accessory (which to the androids working in Liam's estate is a SeriousBusiness).

* SensualSpandex: What she wears for her mech duel with Liam, causing him to put on his best poker face.

! Peetack Household
[[folder:Peter Sera Peetack]]

* AlliterativeName: Peter Peetack. Though it becomes an IronicName when he catches the super STD and has his groin explode.

* NoFairCheating: To curry favor with him, the Razel family rigged a martial arts tournament in his favor, and he's such a bad fighter that the fix is clearly obvious, yet he cruelly mocked his opponent Kurt. He tries the same with Liam, who not only was annoyed that his best friend Kurt was put through that, unable to fight honestly, but was also a target of Peter's abuse, with Peter openly insulting his swordsman training school. Liam completely curbstomps him without even trying, and gets thrown out of the wedding venue as a result, which comes back to really bite the Razel and Peetack houses in the butt later.
* PlausibleDeniability: Which ''backfires''. He disguises his fleet as pirates and has them help actual pirates attack Liam as the latter is departing the Razel household. Unfortunately for the combined fleet, rather than the typical 300 ship escort they were expecting Liam to have, he brought a fleet of 12,000 top of the line battleships because he was planning an expedition to Kurt's territory to deal with the latter's pirate problem. When the Peetack fleet tries to surrender and identify themselves as Peetack soldiers, Liam doesn't believe it, telling his men that it's a fleet of pirates impersonating Peetack soldiers, and shows no mercy.

* HumiliationConga: Things completely fall apart for his household the moment three very influential and powerful merchant firms (as well as two-thirds of his guests) walk out of his daughter's wedding to seek out the distinguished Liam Sera Banfield. His connection to pirates becomes public knowledge when a pirate fleet, along with a fleet belong to the Peetack house, attack Liam shortly after he leaves the dock. The Empire thoroughly investigates the incident, levies heavy sanctions against him, more than he can possibly pay, and demotes his rank to Baron. As a result his reputation becomes utterly shredded with all his neighbors, who close their borders leaving his territory completely isolated. Many of his merchants, knights and vassals take the opportunity to jump ship, leaving the Razel house a shell of its former glory. His house is now tied to the Peetack house, including all their debts, and his daughter is DefiledForever thanks to being married to a guy who has the "groin exploding" STD...
* InUniverseFactoidFailure: Since The Guide magically swapped the information belonging to Peter Peetack and Liam Banfield, Viscount Razel made a bunch of poor decisions trying to curry favor with the Peetack house while, at best, neglecting the Banfield house. In his defense, such a cyber-attack is unprecedented and Liam did inherit a house with a horrid reputation. Also, while Liam's accomplishments are public knowledge, due to the sheer scale of a multi-galaxy empire, the truth of Liam's peerage was slow to arrive at the back-water territory Randolph runs.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Out of embarrassment rather than guilt. When he sees a bunch of very high-ranked merchants walk out of the marriage ceremony between his daughter and Peter Peetack in favor of Liam, he has his staff double-check their investigations, only to learn, way, way too late that he's been currying favor with the wrong guy, with no way to stop his pirate "friends" from launching an attack on '''Pirate Hunter''' Liam.

The daughter of Viscount Razel who was given to Peter Peetack in marriage to forge an alliance.

[[caption-width-right:240: [[labelnote: Click for Lillie]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lillie_37.png]] [[/labelnote]]

* DefeatEqualsFriendship: At first he and Liam barely spoke despite being roommates. After their first sparring match, they become more open and friendly with each other.

* TransTribulations: [[spoiler:In volume 5, "Kurt" starts secretly experimenting with a sex-change potion and dating Liam as a girl named Lillie, which causes friction with Eila since [[YaoiFangirl she ships them as men]].]]

* WrongAssumption: When he's helping the Berkeley family assemble a fleet to raid Liam's home-world, he sets up a fleet specialized to counter Liam's tried and true tactics and strategies. Unfortunately for him, Liam is a very hard-working student who earned his high grades honestly, and listens to his subordinates, so when his fleet captain, Cedric Albalate suggests attacking at range, Dolph's fleet composed of mostly short and medium range fighters starts to quickly be overwhelmed.
