* ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman: Yeah, being able to walk without getting tired may not be the flashiest power, but on a multi-day escort mission it becomes absolutely ''broken''. At the end of the first day of Sora's first escort mission, he is feeling fresh and alert while most of the other adventurers are ready to collapse from exhaustion.

* GoodAllAlong: He initially comes across as a vicious antagonist, since he stormed in during a combination knight+adventurer orc subjugation, annihilated the knights and sent the adventurers packing, all badly wounded, and then homed in on Sora, threatening his life. In truth, he's actually very brave and noble, the knights in question were working, happily, for what turns out to be a genocidal racist, and the adventurers were clearly ''not'' as pure as the driven snow. Sora himself was targeted because summoned "heroes" are, by and large, BrainwashedAndCrazy, Sora being the exception that defines the rule.

* LethalChef: She tried her hand at cooking once, as she and Sora were dungeon diving with a squad of knights, among a mining crew. Those who ate Sora's cooking had a good time. Those who ate hers were in agony until they got stomach medicine, and nobody dares try her cooking again.

Those who ate hers were in agony until they got stomach medicine, and nobody dares try her cooking again. Fortunately, this is later subverted as her cooking skills improve under Mia and Sora, making her more of a OneNoteCook in that she can cook meat just fine but struggles with just about everything else.

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: It's later revealed that her temporary possession of Mia made the latter a de-facto goddess, imbuing her healing magic with divine properties, making her even more effective as a healer and SupportPartyMember, and maybe, just maybe, being the cornerstone to save the world.

* CannotSpitItOut: It's glaringly obvious to everyone and his sister that Chris is smitten with Sora, and it's mutual, but she just can't bring herself to admit it and make it official. She first excuses herself by saying the search for Elis comes first, but once that's taken care of, she finds something else to prioritize over her attraction to him, and when she's called out on that, pines away at the MayflyDecemberRomance that would ensue if she did spit it out.
* DoomedHomeTown: Despite being orphans in a back-water village far from the front lines, the Boschel Empire steamrolled through the perimeter and stormed into town. The orphanage director known as "Granny" barely had time to tell all the kids, human and otherwise, to flee into the forest before troops arrived. Chris and Rurika managed to make it to a cedar tree land-mark. The rest... slaves or dead.
* DualWielding: Rurika fights with one sword in each hand.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: The fact that Sora and Chris are into each other is glaringly obvious and just about everyone comments on it.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Both women are golden-haired blonde and also good and kind who deserve Sora doting on them.
* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: Rurika warns Sora that if he ever hurts Chris, he won't be forgiven.
* IWillFindYou: They are searching for two other childhood friends from whom they were separated as a result of a slaving raid, by war, ten years prior to the start of the story. The reason they know said friends are still alive is thanks to a magic keepsake that says they are.
* RescueRomance: Chris begins being ''very'' interested in Sora after he rescued them from a pack of Wolfs.
* ShrinkingViolet: Chris is almost painfully shy.
* SwordAndSorcerer: Chis is the mage while Rurika is the swordsman.
* TearsOfJoy: Their response to being reunited with Sera and then Sora, the former being a friend they lost sight of in war 10 years in the past, and reuniting with the latter after being told he was MIA, possibly dead, after a fight with a band of orcs and a legit demon sighting.
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: Rurika is the performer to Sora's technician. While he can use the sword thanks to a magical skill, she learned the way of the sword through practice and hard work. In a friendly duel that she demanded, she beats him through superior experience, though he did make a good effort.

After the rest either died or disappeared, she became the biggest agent of death and destruction, by cycling through world-wars, demon king awakening, and then summoning other-world heroes to rally the natives, to wash, rinse, repeat every few centuries.
* BigBad: Directly or indirectly, just about everything wrong with the world is her fault.
* CreativeSterility: Whenever the human nations went to war to the point the planet was put at stake, she never, ever tried anything but creating a "Demon King" to unite all the countries against, even when this clearly wasn't working any more. She made small changes, like sharing the secret to summoning otherworld heroes with the humans of Elysia, giving oracles to saints, and using saints as remote bodies to descend upon the world, but she overall refused to abandon the cycle of peace->war->Demon King->Summon->Peace even when it clearly wasn't working.
* DrivenByEnvy: One of her biggest motivations for keeping the cycle of World War-> Demon King -> Summon Hero -> Celebration -> World War-> Demon King-> Summon is that she abjectly loathes the natives for being able to live freely, happily, and enjoy company, while she's stuck in her divine realm trying to run the world all alone. It's also the reason she tried to end the Dragon King's bloodline and earned the murderous enmity of the "Demon" race, as both of their founders were fellow gods who descended on the world, leaving her behind, to sire families with the mortals, while she had noone.
* GoOutWithASmile: As she's disintegrating, she smiles at Sora and the Dragon King, but whatever she planned to say goes unsaid as her head crumbles to dust.
* IShallTauntYou: She always stops in her tracks to mock her victims, hoping to drive them into a rage where they can't think straight, and then mocks their loss.
* MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: Her death marks the point where the world's apocalypse clock starts ticking. By her estimates, without a god to maintain the world, even with the soul-recycling mechanism she was guarding, the world will cease to be able to support life within a few thousand years, and there's no way off! For extra irony, she never gets to tell anyone about it, as she disintegrates first.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: As she's dying, her body crumbles to dust.
* SadisticChoice: She's a big fan of these. Over several cycles, when the summoned Heroes were defeated, she would descend and force the Demon King to HeroicSacrifice to prevent a worse fate. In the most current, and last, cycle, she uses Mia, Sora's closest subordinate as a vessel to descend to the world and forces Sora to choose whether to kill Elis, on the promise that Mia will be spared, or kill Mia to drive her out.
* SuicideByCop: The biggest reason she loved to taunt the mortal races was that she hoped she could enrage someone or something enough to try and succeed at killing her. She gets her wish when Sora comes at her with a magical machine-gun armed with her KryptoniteFactor.
* XanatosGambit: Her plans are so convoluted and complex that any outcome at all will always loop around to benefit her somehow. She lures Sora and crew, especially Chris and Mia, to Elis so they're all at ground zero for the death of their loved one. When Sora and crew win the fight with the rest of the Heroes, she descends into Mia to fight herself. When Sora chooses to stab Mia rather than take Elis's life, she tries to possess Chris, just to stick it to Elis for daring to survive. When Sora goes after her, along with the Demons, in hot pursuit, it causes Hikari's slave collar to break, putting Elis in danger, again. If Sora and the demons fail to defeat her in her divine realm, she'll go back and possess Chris to kill Elis, or turn Chris into the next Demon King, and if Sora and crew somehow manage to defeat her, she gets the last laugh anyway as the world is now doomed at their hands and they'll never know until it's too late!

* LethalChef: She tried her hand at cooking once, as she and Sora were dungeon diving with a squad of knights, among a mining crew. Those who ate Sora's cooking had a good time. Those who ate hers were in agony until they got stomach medicine, and nobody dares try her cooking again.

Added DiffLines:

* RightForTheWrongReasons: Turns out she actually has good reason to panic at the thought of being released from her SlaveCollar. [[spoiler: When Sora goes off to face Goddess Elizabeth, passing the planar boundary causes the slave collar to break. The collar was acting as a RestrainingBolt to keep her stable and in control, without it, her indoctrination and brainwashing takes over, making her a prisoner in her own body, which tries to kill Elis and everyone in her way.]]


Added DiffLines:

* TroubledChild: She rarely smiles in the presence of anyone but Sora ([[WhenSheSmiles and Sora goes to great lengths to see it]]), or those who are very close to him, tends to get fidgety when they're apart, and ''absolutely panics'' when he offers to set her free from her SlaveCollar as she sees that as a kind of abandonment.

Added DiffLines:

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She will happily eat anything that Sora cooks for her, as not only his life on earth, but the [Cooking] skill he picked up made him a gourmet chef, but she will go absolutely gaga for the meat of a monster known as [Blood Snake]. Whenever those beasts show up in her vicinity, her eyes will sparkle, she'll drool, and prioritize killing and blood-letting them, demanding Sora cook them ASAP.

* EvilVersusOblivion: How he justifies his horrific actions, especially towards the summoned "heroes." Yes, kidnapping seven children from another world, keeping them captive if they prove useful, discarding (but keeping an eye on) them if they don't, and using any and all means to control them, including brainwashing is a "lesser" evil than the existence of the Demon King, who supposedly causes dungeons to go amok just from coming into existence.

* PragmaticVillainy: How much of his actions are villainous is up for debate, but he's not needlessly cruel and bloodthirsty, and he can be convinced to do good and noble things if and when it can benefit him.
** He lets Sora live in exchange for afflicting him with a curse that keeps him from attacking the Demon King because, why not, and Sora gave him some juicy intel that the Royal castle in Elysia had summoned six new heroes, plus, as later revealed, the curse allows Ignis to keep track of Sora at all times, and see what he sees.
** When he realizes Sora is travelling with Mia, the Saint of the Holy Kingdom, rather than Asto's report that Mia's dead, he calls off Asto and lets Mia live, both because he now knows where the only saint allowed by the goddess to be in human hands is, what she's capable of, and who she is as opposed to a random Joe out there that nobody knows about, and since she's in Sora's party, Mia is ''very'' unlikely to get into conflict with the Demon King, thanks to the curse.
** He frequently visits the kingdom of Majolica, in disguise, as an adventurer, and keeps the dungeon under control, to secure they remain neutral in the fight between humans and the Demon King. In fact, he's quite friendly with the local guild-master Reese.

Added DiffLines:

* HappinessInSlavery: Of the ConditionedToAcceptHorror variety. As far as she can remember, she's always been a slave. After Ignis destroyed her [Slave Mask], she had night terrors unless she was sleeping beside Sora and he held her hand through the night. This stops when she's made a [Special] slave so she and Sora could continue their journey. There comes a point where she's offered her freedom and an official ID ''and she panics'', hysterically refusing to have her SlaveCollar removed. Sora can only sigh, give her hugs and headpats until she calms down and returns to "normal."
