History Characters / UnicornOverlordZenoira

* ClimaxBoss: He's fought towards the end of the Bastorias arc; he survives and flees further west, [[spoiler:only to be killed by Elgor, who becomes the final opponent in the main arc]].

* CameBackStrong: [[spoiler:At the end of "The Priestess, Abducted" Alain strikes Galerius down to rescue Scarlett, but Baltro revives Galerius by undoing the seals at the temple the fight takes place in. It also makes him even stronger, as he nearly kills Alain in a single strike]]. This is also the reason that [[spoiler:he doesn't possess Alain and remains in his current body, as he otherwise cannot unlock his full power in the final battle or open the Gate to bring all his people back en masse.]]

* NoJustNoReaction: [[spoiler:If Alain proposes she take the Ring of the Maiden, she guesses right away what he called her for, and rejects the offer before Alain can even speak and explain himself. Unlike other options, the player has to confirm twice that they wish to do so for her to accept the offer. Alain also has to agree that they will face challenges together rather than claim they won't have problems.]]
* SensualSpandex: Her armor is a skintight bodysuit with armored elements over it.

* AndManGrewProud: [[spoiler:The original Zenoiran Empire attempted to claim immortality by killing the Unicorn. In turn, the Unicorn destroyed the empire and cursed their souls to wander the earth for all eternity.]].
* BarredFromTheAfterlife: [[spoiler:The Unicorn's Curse keeps Zenoiran souls in the beyond, unable to fully pass on. Alain lifts the curse in the ending.]]

* PreClimaxBoss: He's fought towards the end of the Bastorias arc; he survives and flees further west, [[spoiler:only to be killed by Elgor, who becomes the final opponent in the main arc]].

* WeaksauceWeakness: Has some serious holes in ContractualBossImmunity. Namely he can be stunned. This proves to be a fatal weakness if you attack him with Rosalinde because if she's faster than him, she can prevent him from using his start of battle barrier ability with Rage of the Fairies. He can also be frozen, making the ability Ice Conferal a massive thorn in his side.

* WeaksauceWeakness: Has the same vulnerability to Rage of the Fairies stun effect Galerius does, as does his entire squad. His entire squad can also be frozen should you bring ice conferall and use it on an aoe attack.

* {{Lich}}: [[spoiler:As he dies, we see his face is actually a skull. He's also impossible to kill unless the killing blow is inflicted using the Unicorn's Magic via Alain's "Astral Blade" skill]].

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Less so that he didn't realise what we was doing, but Ghislain's success in nearly completing a cure to the MysticalPlague before his death was an accidental hit to [[ManipulativeBastard Baltro]] and his scheming; part of the reason he's tricked into dying against the Liberation Army was the chance that Alain would halt the experiments and ruin Baltro's efforts.

* MadScientist: Of the WellIntentionedExtremist variety. While he is indeed making progress in creating a cure, he is willing to fight against the Liberation Army to use their corpses for research, and the towns in his territory would prefer it ended after his death than a cure attained.

* UnwittingPawn: To Baltro, who created the MysticalPlague in their territory and then manipulated Ghislain under the guise of helping them cure it.

* AGoodWayToDie: Before he dies he tells Josef their battle was the best battle of his life and that he is finally satisfied.

* MakingASplash: She teleports by summoning a column of water around herself. In combat she uses both a single target water spell and one that attacks the entire squad.

* UndignifiedDeath: [[spoiler:Josef found his death to be pitiful, as he was fatally wounded by his own soldiers that he constantly belittles.]]

* FantasticRacism: He sees bestrals as lowly beast that deserve only to be subjugated by him. [[spoiler:Ironically, he's killed by Elgor, a wererat Bestral.]]

* MadScientist: While he is indeed making progress in creating a cure, he is willing to fight against the Liberation Army to use their corpses for research, and the towns in his territory would prefer it ended after his death than a cure attained.

* CounterAttack: In "Vile Desecration," he is equipped with the Necromancer's Lantern, which grants him the passive skill ''Vanitas''. ''Vanitas'' allows Baltro to counterattack anyone that attacks him with a weak magickal attack that inflicts Poison and Blind to the target. It is also grants him immunity to Poison and Deathblow. He drops the accessory upon defeat, allowing you access to the skill.

* HateSink: The man has no redeeming qualities, being a cruel, craven, and arrogant man. Part of why Virginia is so consumed with rage at him is how the Knights of the Rose died to such a detestable person.

* KarmicDeath: Virginia's unit being the ones to kill him [[GameplayAndStoryIntegration even unlocks exclusive dialogue you won't see otherwise]], appropriately so given his massacre of their order.
* OneManArmy: Killed many of the Knights of the Rose by himself, skewering warrior after warrior in his attempt to assassinate a young Virginia.

* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:In the normal ending, the game ends with Galerius defeated and the rite of channeling disrupted. However, Baltro is unaccounted for and will likely resurface again to cause destruction in Fevrith, especially since the Zenoiran souls remain cursed.]]

* HatedByAll: Giethe was a reputation for being cruel to both allies and enemies equally, which makes him despised by everyone. After his death, it's stated that he'll certainly be forgotten by history as nobody will bother to recognise his existence.

* PreClimaxBoss: He's fought towards the end of the Bastorias arc; he survives and flees further west [[spoiler:and is killed by Elgor, who becomes the final opponent in the main arc]].

* HandicappedBadass: She's actually missing an eye, but she's a powerful warrior despite it.

* TheDragon: He's Galerius' most trusted servant.

* AnIcePerson: Ironically, despite complaining about the cold, she is still a Sorceress who specializes in casting ice magic. She carries an Icestorm Staff, which allow her to cast Blizzard that freezes your entire unit if she successfully completes the charge. She is also immune to freeze, due to carrying the Icestorm Staff, so trying to stop her with your own Sorceress will not work.

* WakeUpCallBoss: Makes shameless use of Ice Coffin, encouraging a player to field a team that can protect itself or cleanse debuffs, or perhaps buy some of the Freeze Immunity items sold by Bastorias Armorers.

* GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Fittingly for someone who hails from one of the most oppressed and weakest beastmen bloodlines of Bastorias, Elgor has some rather glaring vulnerabilities towards every bestral unit and major party member of the same save for Morard (and there's even a reason for that relating to this trope). Wereowls dispel the buffs he places on himself and whatever debuffs he inflicts. He's a dodge tank who inexplicably has a "cover" passive that causes him to leap in front of his teammates to shield them from a hit, making it easier for werefoxes and werebears to hit him. Being in the back row doesn't protect him from Yunifi's shots. And even werewolves, considered one of the weakest units of the game, can harass his wounded self to death with their underpowered ''Killing Pursuit'' skill.
