* {{Curse}}: His abandoning Camlann was the reason the previous Shepherd ended up cursing him, driving him mad by grief and despair until he turned into the Lord of Calamity.



* FreudianExcuse: Surprisingly {{Averted}}. It wasn't a single moment or event that made Heldalf the monster he is now. Instead it was a slow and even worse series of events ranging from [[spoiler:his family being murdered]], to him [[spoiler: being unable to kill himself]] that shaped him into hating the world.

* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: The source of why he ended up the way he is, though the "good deed" is up for interpretation. [[spoiler:Heldalf and his troops were garrisoning at Michael's village during the war, causing the people to constantly lash out at them. He decided to give them what they want and left, only for the village to be attacked after they did so. Rather than try to save it, he decided to leave it to its fate to spare his troops. In doing so, Michael cursed him into becoming the Lord of Calamity, and is why he no longer can see people in a positive way again]].

* PhysicalGod: While he may of been human once, Heldalf is a walking well of malevolence. Simply appearing in any area generally causes '''anyone''' with any malevolence at all to instantly become a Hellion. He's so absurdly strong he defeats Sorey and the group the first time they clash with his domain alone. Keep in mind up until that point domains only were used to quell malevolence in cities. During a viewing of the Iris Gems the group is utterly '''horrified''' at how he [[CurbstompBattle defeats]] [[SingleStrokeBattle a]] [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Dragon]] in one hit.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Heavily implied to have been this in his backstory; [[spoiler:though he butt heads with Shepherd Michael, he was only truly doing his job and made choices that were logical and meant for the good for his soldiers. Unfortunately...]]

* ShootTheHostage: At one point, Rose holds Symonne at knife point in an attempt to get him to back off and stop attacking the party. He responds by simply blasting the both of them with a torrent of water.

* TragicVillain: Being cursed to endure eternal loneliness caused his family to die in tragic accidents, be alienated and mocked him by his peers, feared amongst those who saw his curse in action, watch innocent babies turn into Hellions just from him holding them, and have every attempt to commit suicide fail until he finally transformed into the Lord of Calamity.

* UnskilledButStrong: He fights with punches and claw swipes, which can easily be used without finesse. He's also strong enough to one shot a dragon. Exaggerated during [[spoiler: his OneWingedAngel mode after Armatizing with Maotelus]]. The unskilled part is downplayed, since he's at least skilled enough with countering to use Karmic Stance.

* AmbiguousSituation: The game doesn't reveal how he came into Heldalf's fold. It's implied to have happened sometime after his second boss fight, since his goal of killing Alisha could interfere with [[spoiler:Maltran's]] plans to use the princess.

* TheSociopath: The anime gives him this attitude regarding current events and will watch with glee as everything and everyone around him wither down under pressure, especially in regards to Alisha's issues.

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: He claims and believes that turning everyone into Hellions will erase the world's pain. However, the party speculates that he's really looking for a way to overcome his loneliness, as shown when he insists on sparing Sorey in order to give the latter a chance to become a Hellion servant. It's implied that his true motive for spreading Malevolence is so that he doesn't have to be alone in his predicament, though his curse would most likely find a way around that anyways.
