* {{Foil}}: To the other most prominent Stalkers; the Black Rabbit Brotherhood and the duo of Red Fox and Black Cat. [[spoiler:Alidoro aids the other two groups in the attack on Hotel Krat by being the man on the inside that disables the security, but being a spineless coward, never directly tries to harm P no matter how much of a jerk you are to him, and in fact [[WrongGenreSavvy thinks admitting all his wrongdoing is fine under the assumption you wouldn't kill him in cold blood]], though to be clear, he doesn't see himself as haveing done anything wrong. As he doesn't understand motives outside of personal gain, the only reason he can have to call his story a 'tragic tale' is that he couldn't keep taking the real Alidoro's money without having to kill him (because that stopped him from earning any more money for Parrot to steal). He also lacks the shared trait that made the Brotherhood and the Fox and Cat garner any kind of sympathy: [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes bonds of camaraderie that transcend being blood relatives]], seeing as how Parrot murdered the real Alidoro, either over money, or the disciplinary slap on the wrist he got for stealing from his astonishingly generous benefactor.]]

* TemptingFate: [[spoiler:He confesses all his crimes to P under the assumption that P is bound to the Grand Covenant and thus cannot attack him unless attacked first, going so far as to openly mock him for it, seemingly forgetting the reason he's running from Krat in the first place: Specifically, the Grand Covenant having failed, and virtually all puppets going on murderous rampages. [[BullyingADragon The player can (violently) disabuse him of this notion]]]].

* ZeroEffortBoss: [[spoiler:Unlike all other enemy Stalkers, he doesn't get a boss health bar and nor can he even try to fight back. Once P makes it clear he intends to attack him, he will cower and beg you for his life. Once taking this option, any kind of offensive ability, even from a fully reset character, will smack him to the ground with the force of a meteor, killing him almost instantly. This also says something very damning about his story: He claims he "Had to kill Alidoro" and implied that things came to blows, but considering he has all the fighting prowess of an anemic flamingo, the only way he could possibly have killed Alidoro would have been to cut his throat in his sleep.]]
